Abstract:
A method for controlling a microwave heating system is provided. The method may be used with a system having a liquid-filled microwave heating chamber and includes measuring the value of one or more microwave system parameters. Suitable parameters can include, for example, net microwave power discharged, the temperature of the liquid in the microwave chamber, the flow rate of liquid through the microwave chamber, and the speed of the conveyance system disposed within the microwave chamber. The measured value of the selected parameter is then compared to a target value for that parameter in order to determine a difference. Based on the difference, one or more actions can be taken in order to start, stop, or alter the operation of the microwave heating system.

Claim (Index 10):
The system of  claim 8 , wherein said thermalization zone is configured to adjust the temperature of said articles to a substantially uniform temperature so that at least 85 percent of said articles have a temperature within 5\u00b0 C. of each other prior to the introduction of said articles into said microwave heating chamber, wherein said quench zone is configured to cool the heated articles by at least about 30\u00b0 C., wherein said microwave heating zone is configured to heat said articles by at least about 25\u00b0 C. in a time period in the range of from about 60 seconds to about 10 minutes, wherein said system is configured to pasteurize or sterilize said articles at a rate of at least 15 packages per minute per convey line.
