Add to ORKGWith regard to efficient food processing and cost effective production lines, Radio Frequency (RF) heating is a prime example. Thermal processing of food has gained an ever growing importance as food manufactures strive after increasing the number and quality of value added products on the market. Solid food, such as meat and vegetables, is more difficult to heat efficiently since it cannot be pumped or stirred. This is an area where RF cooking can provide significant benefits due to the volumetric nature of dielectric heating. Since heat is generated internally in the product, by inducing an electric field through the food, which acts as a dielectric material, and does not rely on conduction, convection or radiation, heating takes place ev...
