Keynote: Simulating Solid-State Microwave Ovens
Duration: 14:57
In a keynote talk at the COMSOL Conference 2020 North America, Christopher Hopper of Illinois Tool Works (ITW) discusses how his team uses multiphysics simulation, interfacing products, and simulation applications to design optimized solid-state microwave ovens.
Christopher Hopper is a senior RF engineer for the IBEX group at ITW, where he focuses on modeling and training RF systems, hardware and software testing and validation, and algorithm development.
