Application of microwaves for high temperature process monitoring
TLDR
In this paper, a high gain corrugated conical horn antenna centered at 22 GHz with 4 GHz bandwidth is presented for material process monitoring in furnaces, which is tested in a metal melting furnace.Abstract:
Design and demonstration of a high gain corrugated conical horn antenna centered at 22 GHz with 4 GHz bandwidth is presented for material process monitoring in furnaces. The fabricated antenna is tested in a metal melting furnace. The high temperature RADAR signals demonstrate non-contact level sensing of the molten mass and material property variations with temperature.read more
