Abstract

In this paper a microwave source for dielectric heating is discussed. A low cost source for the purpose of dielectric heating to control the insect pests on tomato plant with the help of parallel plate applicator is simulated and developed. A magnetron operated at 2.45GHz is used to transfer the power from rectangular waveguide to coaxial line port with 50 Ω impedance is discussed. In this paper, transfer of microwave power from the magnetron is launched into rectangular waveguide and transferred to coaxial port to couple the power more than 85%. The hatching rate of insect eggs and mortality of ‘Helicoverpa armigera’ larvae up to 3rd instars is observed on tomato plant at the power of 360 W using developed microwave sources.
