摘要
The dielectric properties of four Canadian eastern wood species were measured as a function of moisture content and temperature, at frequencies between 0.4 and 2.47GHz using the cavity perturbation technique. The temperature was varied from-20 to 58 degrees C and moisture content from 40 to 136%. Dielectric properties varied with moisture content, wood temperature, and microwave frequency. However, the influence of moisture content and microwave frequency overshadowed the influence of wood species and wood temperature. The dependencies were established for the selected species and discrepancies are discussed, namely concerning their implication when used in wood industry (nondestructive testing, heating, and drying).
