EnglishA magnetron is a device that generates microwaves in a microwave oven. It works by using an electric current to create a magnetic field, which in turn generates microwaves. These microwaves are directed into the oven's cooking chamber, where they are absorbed by food and cause the water molecules in it to vibrate, generating heat.
Magnetrons are typically made of a metal cylinder with a negatively charged cathode at one end and a positively charged anode at the other. The cathode emits electrons, which are then accelerated by the anode's electric field and pulled into a central cavity. As the electrons pass through the magnetic field, they are forced to move in a circular path, creating microwaves. The magnetron is a key component of the microwave oven that makes it possible to cook food quickly and efficiently.
A microwave oven magnetron is a device that generates microwaves in a microwave oven. The magnetron is a vacuum tube that contains a negatively charged cathode and a positively charged anode. When an electric current is passed through the cathode, it emits electrons, which are then accelerated by the anode's electric field and pulled into a central cavity. Inside the central cavity, a magnetic field is created by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. As the electrons pass through the magnetic field, they are forced to move in a circular path, creating microwaves. These microwaves are directed into the oven's cooking chamber through a waveguide, where they are absorbed by food and cause the water molecules in it to vibrate, generating heat. The magnetron is a key component of the microwave oven that makes it possible to cook food quickly and efficiently.
