PREFERENTIALLY DIRECTING ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY TOWARDS COLDER REGIONS OF OBJECT BEING HEATED BY MICROWAVE OVEN

摘要

Systems and/or techniques for preferentially directing electromagnetic energy towards colder regions of an object are provided. During at least a portion of a heat treatment via a microwave oven, temperature measurements of the object are acquired to identify colder regions of the object. Microwaves ovens often heat objects non-uniformly. For example, an outer surface of a burrito may be hot-to-touch while a center core of the burrito is still frozen.
