Study of the operating modes of a microwave installation for heat treatment and disinfection of grain

Calculation method has been developed and mathematical models of the main parameters and operating modes of microwave installations for disinfecting grain and ensuring the required temperature regime, the rate of grain heating by controlling the temperature have been obtained. The use of microwave installations improves the process of grain disinfection from pathogenic microflora and pests. Microwave technologies and installations for grain disinfection include a number of operations that allow grain to be disinfected up to 75-85% of living pests that do not allow grain to be stored for a long time. Therefore, for agricultural enterprises, improving the parameters and modes of microwave operation for disinfecting grain is very important. In this regard, we propose a method for calculating the parameters and operating modes of microwave installations for disinfecting grain and ensuring the required temperature regime, the rate of grain heating by regulating the temperature. The choice of the power of microwave installations, the field strength and the working part of the capacitor is closely related to the fulfillment of the requirements for microwave installations for grain disinfection
