Abstract

In a microwave system for heating, and controlling the temperature of, a heat bath including a containment for a liquid, with a wall on which the microwave system is mounted, the microwave system comprises a microwave source operating at an ISM frequency of 2 to 5 GHz, a microwave conductor for conducting microwaves from the microwave source to a resonator through a ceramic window disposed in the resonator wall, the resonator has a common wall portion with the containment, which common wall portion consists of a grid having a mesh width that prevents passage of microwave radiation but provides for communication of the liquid between the resonator and the containment.
