Modelling of Industrial Conveyorized Applicators Using Higher Order Vector Finite Elements
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper presents a finite element time domain method for the solution of Maxwell's equations in microwave heating applicators using first and second order vector finite elements. Results are compared with experimental data and it has been shown that second order vector finite elements have many advantages over first order elements. Capitalising on the high accuracy and low computational cost attainable by higher order elements, an industrial conveyor belt system is numerically analyzed.
