Abstract

Some of the disclosed embodiments include systems, apparatuses, and methods for heating a flowing material by applying radio frequency (RF) energy. In some embodiments, such an apparatus may include a conduit, in which the material flows; a cavity, encompassing at least a portion of the conduit; at least two radiating elements, configured to apply RF energy to the cavity at a common frequency and at a controllable phase difference; and a processor, configured to control the phase difference such that an electromagnetic field excited in the cavity has lower intensity near walls of the conduit than at the conduit center.
