[@KiraHellhammer]

Could you follow-up on the actual microwave generation? How/why does the mentioned oscillation occur and how does it result in microwave radiation?

[@dhanushsai396]

Same doubt

[@ssholum]

There is a permanent magnet on the magnetron which prevents electrons boiled off of the cathode from traveling straight to the anode, but it's not strong enough to prevent conduction. So you get some cyclotron radiation, but if I understand correctly, it's mostly just to help steer the electrons around the anode, to improve the deposition of charges, which improves efficiency. Because it takes time to stabilize the charges within the anode (the part shown in the video), electrons from the cathode will continue to conduct to different parts of the anode, meaning the charge will never reach a stable configuration, and you'll continue to get currents traveling around the anode. The skin effect keeps the majority of this current at the surface of the anode. The round cavities have currents flowing around them, which makes those cavities act like an inductor. The geometry of the plates also causes a measure of capacitance, with adjacent plates having different charge, thus having an electric field between them. The result of this capacitive and inductive geometry is your typical LC oscillator, and it determines the operating frequency (though these circuits are quite noisy because of the inherent randomness of charge deposition). Depending on the different geometry, it could take more or less time for charges to move from one surface to the next, which will determine the frequency of the induced AC current. As for the radiation: All moving charges cause EM radiation. They are microwaves because the frequency of the alternating currents induced in the resonator is in the microwave range. Other geometry in the resonator (the cavities are all connected and also contained in a solid case except for a small aperture) guides the microwaves for output into a waveguide.

Outstanding video!

[@crashfactory]

i think i understand, but it would have been good to explicitly explain why the blue fields lines are now curved at 3:00. Presumably it's because the faces of the teeth/splines are now no longer parallel. Does this mean that the linear case would also establish a pattern of charges if the teeth were closer at their tips?

if there is an electric charge within the magnetron ,is there a way to chanel that electricity from a big magnetron to electrifie tools,machine ?

[@nigeljohnson9820]

The video made no mention of the magnetic field that curves the path of the electrons, or the time delays associated with operating at microwave frequencies. Or how the charge oscillates from one side of each cavity to the other. As an explanation of the operation of the magnetron it really does not go far enough.

[@nigeljohnson9820]

@@mikehodgetts4864 the error was in failing to distinguish between high frequency a.c. behaviour and that of dc. Clearly in a lump of metal like the anode, surface voltage differences cannot be maintained except at microwave frequencies. The magnetic fields across the cavity resonates openings are the result of the RF current flowing round each cavity.

[@I-XebeX]

What happens if you add or remove one cavity?

[@hond654]

You will change the frequency (btw remove even numbers to keep it stable - Pi or pi/2 or pi/4 etc modes are stable, so the number f fins N should be even) Visualize it like you can flatten the circuit by cutting it, then unroll into a linear shape (like when you flatten a cut ring) and draw a sine wave on top of it, eg fin1 0, fin2 1, fin3 0, fin4 --1, fin5 0 etc. If you can end the sine wave in the same position as it started, like fin1=fin5 then you can see that with eg 4 fins you can have a nice stable periodic field.

[@henrymehta6377]

What happens if there are an odd number of bars in the cylinder ? They couldn’t go positive negative the whole way round then

[@kc4cvh]

But what happens if the number of cavities in the ring is an odd integer?

[@hond654]

Then you do not operate in PI mode. It works but not as stable as the PI mode. Search for "magnetron strapping" how you connect the various cavities to stabilize the frequencies.

[@NebosvodGonzalez]

[@Kane-ib5sn]

never defined what an electric field is. asked Gemini AI, and its explanation was indirect, and obscure. what i gather, is that, an electric field can be positive or negative. it is a bubble force-field, under Hooke's law. why not say so? - being direct is so much more efficient. do we even know what an electric field is, in a quantum sense? - because, if not, saying so, would be important too.

[@mikesickoflife6286]

Why didn’t you say it is a Soundwave like reaction that happens when closing the circle. As the wave microwave soundwave bounces around the inside of the circle. It starts to create energy field more less now put a inner ring and a sitting area with magnets and mercury rot around that in opposite direction of circles rotation

[@石川さゆり-r1m]

Besides microwave, what can a Magnetron be used on other purpose?

[@hond654]

The copper heats up because of its resistance so you can generate heat. Just joking - a microwave device is good to generate microwaves.
