Abstract

The microwave heating of a ceramic laminate composed of three layers is modeled arid analyzed. Two materials with widely disparate effective electrical conductivity's comprise the laminate. The ratio of the these conductivities is exploited as a small parameter in the development of an asymptotic theory. Two physically distinct situations are considered. In the first, a low-loss ceramic is surrounded by lossy material. In the second situation, a lossy material is surrounded by a low-loss material. The results are physically interpreted to attain insight into the dynamics and parameter dependence of the microwave heating of ceramic laminates.
