microwave heating

Microwave heating works by using microwave radiation to excite water molecules and other substances within food or materials. These microwaves induce rapid molecular vibrations, generating heat directly inside the object, rather than relying on external heat transfer. This process heats items quickly and evenly from the inside out, as the microwaves penetrate the material and cause consistent molecular agitation. The efficiency of microwave heating depends on the material’s water content and how well it absorbs microwave energy, making it a powerful method for fast and targeted heating in cooking and industrial applications.
