Microwaves Practical Applications

The document discusses the invention and applications of microwaves. It describes how James Clerk Maxwell discovered electromagnetic waves in the 19th century, laying the foundations for the development of microwaves. Some key applications of microwaves mentioned include telecommunications, radar systems, medical imaging, weather monitoring, and industrial uses. The document also provides details on how microwave ovens work, with the main components being a magnetron that generates microwaves, a waveguide to direct the waves, and a stirrer to distribute them evenly in the oven cavity.

PRESENTATION
. OF MICROWAVE
Presented by: Mary Janel Llaneta
THE INVENTOR OF MICROWAVE
JAMES CLERK MAXWELL
• IN THE 15TH YEARS OLD , HE WAS ABLE TO PRESENT
SCIENTIFIC PAPER WORK. MAXWELL CONSIDER ED
THE GREATEST THE TEOTORICAL PHYSICS IN THE
ENTIRE PERIOD BETWEEN NEWTON, AND EINSTEIN.
MAXWELL IS A SCIENTISTS WHO HAS BEEN
TREACING THE LINK BETWEEN SYMPTOMS OF
ELECTRICITY AND MAGNECITY BASED ON THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT ALREADY EXISTS AT THAT TIME.
MICROWAVE
• MICROWAVES ARE A FORM OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE WITH
WAVELENGTHS RANGING FROM AS LONG AS ONE METER TO AS SHORT AS
ONE MILLIMETER, OR EQUIVALENTLY, WITH FREQUENCIES BEETWEEN 300
MHz (0.3 GHz) AND 300 GHz.
• MICROWAVES HAVE WIDE RANGE ORACTICAL APPLICATIOS, ACROSS
VARIOUS FIELD, MICROWAVES ARE WIDELY USED IN MODERN TECHNOLOGY.

EXAMPLES OF PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF .
MICROWAVES
• TELECOMMUNICATIONS: MICROWAVES PLAY A
CRUCIAL ROLE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
SYSTEMS. THEY ARE USED TO POINT TO POINT
COMMUNICATION LINKS, SUCH AS SATELLITE
COMMUNICATION, CELLULAR NETWORKS, AND
MICROWAVE RADIO SYSTEMS. MICROWAVES ALLOW
FOR HIGH SPEED DATA TRANSMISSION OVER LONG
DISTANCES WITHOUT THE NEED OF PHYSICAL
CABLES.
EXAMPLES OF PRACTICAL APPLICATION
. OF MICROWAVES
• RADAR SYSTEMS: RADAR ( RADIO DETECTION AND
RANGING) SYSTEMS USE MICROWAVES TO DETECT
AND TRACK OBJECTS. THEY ARE USED IN AVIATION
FOR AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, WEATHER
MONITORING, AND AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION. RADAR
SYSTEMS ARE ALSO EMPLOYED IN MILITARY
APPLICATIONS FOR SURVEILLANCE, TARGET
DETECTION, AND MISSLE GUIDANCE
EXAMPLES OF PRACTICAL APPLICATION
MICROWAVES
• MICROWAVE ARE UTILIZED IN MEDICAL IMAGING
TECHNIQUES LIKE MICROWAVE IMAGINGG AND
ANG MICROWAVE TECHNOGRAPHY. THIS
TECHNIQUES USES LOW POWER OF MICROWAVES
TO CREATE AN IMAGE OF HUMAN BODY, WHICK
VANCAN BE USEFUL IN DIAGNOSING DISEASES,
MONITORING TREATMENT PROGRESS, AND
DETACTING ABNORMALITIES.
EXAMPLES OF PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF
. MICROWAVES

• WEATHER MONITORING – MICROWAVES ARE UTILIZED IN


WEATHER MONITORING SYSTEM, PARTICULARLY FOR
MEASURING PRECPITATION, AND MONITORING
SYMODPHERIC CONDITION. IT PROVIDS INFORMATION
ON THE VARIOUS INHUMIDITY, TEMPERATURE, AND CO
LEVELS IN EXACT REGION WHERE THE EMBEDDED
MONITORING DEVICE IS INSTALLED.
EXAMPLE OF PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF.
MICROWAVES

• INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS – MICROWAVES FIND


APPLICATION IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIAL
PROGRESSES. FOR EXAMPLE IN MATERIALS
PROCESSING, MICROWAVES ARE USED FOR
DRYING, HEATING, AND CURING OF MATERIALS.
THEY ALSO EMPLOYED IM CHEMICAL
PROCESSING, SUCH AS POLYMERIZATION AND
STERILIZATION.
MICROWAVE OVEN

• A MICROWAVE OVEN IS A HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCE THAT IS HIGHLY EFFICIENT AND ENERGY


SAVING.
MICROWAVE OVEN

THE MICROWAVE RADIATION OF MICROWAVE


OVEN AND THE SOME RADAR APPLICATION IS
PRODUCED BY DEVICE CALLED MAGNETRON
MICROWAVE OVEN
• THE WORKING PRINCIPLE OF MICROWAVE OVEN:
1. MAGNETRON IN THE OVEN PRODUCES MICROWAVES WITH THE
FREQUENCY OF 2.45 GHz.
2. MICROWAVES FROM THE MAGNETRON IS DIRECTED INTO A WAVEGUIDE.
3. WAVEGUIDE FORWARD MICROWAVES TO A DEVICE RESEMBLING A FAN
CALLED STRIRER.
4. STIRIRER SPREAD MICROWAVS INSIDE THE OVEN.
5. MICROWAVES ARE THEN REFLECTED ON THE WALLS OF THE OVEN AND
ARE ABSORBED BY THE MOLECULES OF FOOD MOLECULES.
6. MICROWAVE CAN MAKE BEETWEEN MOLECULES, COLLISION BETWEEN
MOLECULES IS THAT CAUSES THE MOLECULES TO HEAT UP THE MOLECULE.
SUMMARY
• MICROWAVE IS AN ELECTRONIC MAGNETIC WAVE WHICH WAVELENGTH
OF THE WAVE IS BETWEEN 1mm -1m, AND WAVE FREQUENCY IS
BETWEEN 300MHz – 300Hz.
• THE INVENTION MICROWAVE IS BASED ON THE INVENTOR OF
ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVE, HE IS JAMES CLERK MAXWELL.
• APPLICATIOK OF MICROWAVE IN DAILY LIFE CAN BE FOUND IN GPS,
RADAR, AND MICROWAVE OVEN.
• MICROWAVE RADIATION CAN BE PRODUCED FROM COMPONENT
NAMED MAGNETRON.
• THE IMPORTANT THING IN MICROWAVE OVEN ARE MAGNETRON,
WAVEGUIDE AND STRIRER.
