Abstract From the Canadian patent

Slot-array antennas are connected by waveguides to microwave generators and are disposed within a vacuum drying tank of a drying apparatus. Blocking plates are mounted in the waveguides so as to keep the wveguides airtight thereby maintaining an atmospheric pressure within the waveguide portions near the microwave generator during operation of the apparatus. The slot-array antennas have heat pipes attached to the sides of said antennas so that a heat radiation may be effected simultaneously with the microwave heating.
