Equation of electric field distribution in a microwave cavity with perfect electric conductor surfaces and TE10 mode is formulated from Helmholtz equation. The dissipated heat distribution is calculated from the electric field distribution. Six study cases for electric field and dissipated heat distributions were implemented by using ANSYS software based on finite element method. The impact of dielectric sample properties, position, size and shape inside the microwave cavity were predicted. The results from the simulation of electric field and dissipated heat were compared with available data in literature and showed the validity of the analysis. It was found that the electric field forming hot spots at penetration depth and front corners of the soot sample and penetration depth is equal to 12mm but equal to 0 for samples with dimensions less than penetration depth. Dissipated heat pattern depend on electric field pattern and dielectric properties. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2013 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84887538580&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMM.459.310&partnerID=40&md5=21c4458bd5cb6552ad712c1d61506a41 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.459.310 full_text_status: none publication: Applied Mechanics and Materials volume: 459 pagerange: 310-318 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783037859230 issn: 16609336 citation: Al-Wakeel, H.B. and Karim, Z.A.A. and Al-Kayiem, H.H. and Fawad, H.
