Abstract
A microwave heating system utilizing a magnetron for generating the microwaves. The microwaves are sent to a diffuser which spreads the microwaves in an upper chamber of a housing from where they can bounce off the metal walls of the upper chamber and pass through a clear plastic material into a lower chamber. A fluid passes through a circuitous path in the lower chamber and is heated by means of the microwaves.
