Millimeter-Wave Heating, Radiometry, and Calorimetry of Granite Rock to Vaporization

Problem: The vaporization parameters of rocks, concretes, and refractory ceramics are not readily available. Technology: This invention describes a procedure to carry out MMW studies of rock fusion and vaporization that is applicable to all refractory materials. This includes using MMWs to melt and vaporize rock and measuring the MMW emissivity of molten rocks, the dynamics of phase transitions, and the phase transition temperatures including vaporization.
