10.3 Coaxial waveguide without heat flow module

This example is available in .../QW_V2D/BHM/coax_NO_HFM/coax_perp_loss.pro in the QuickWave examples directory.

 

General Description

Circular waveguide with lossy load showing microwave heating (BHM mode).

 

Temperature dependent material parameters for medium air_loss are defined in the air_loss.pmo file:
