We describes a new setup based on metamaterial to enhance microwave heating efficiency for target area. Compared with conventional microwave heating, temperature rise of water can be increased 28% in this setup. Both experiments and simulations demonstrate microwave energy can be concentrated on target area to improve microwave heating efficiency. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
