Abstract:
The
amount of radiation leakage, the electric field, magnetic field and the
specific absorption rate (SAR) were investigated from 115 microwave
ovens in domestic use in Palestine. The power density of radiation
leakage from microwave ovens was measured using instruments. The age of
ovens were between 1 month and 13 years old including 14 ovens with
unknown age, with operating power ranging from 700 W to 1350 W of
different types, manufacturers, and models. The power density of
radiation from ovens was measured at different distances at the height
of center of door screen. Electric field, Magnetic field and SAR were
calculated at distances 5 cm and 20 cm from ovens. These values were
much less than the recommended Electromagnetic Field levels (EMF), of
International Commission on Non–Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
for 2.45 GHz radiofrequency. The power density of radiation leakages
from microwave ovens does not depend on the oven age and operating power
of ovens.
