| Calculate complex relative permittivity for a material |

I need to calculate the dielectric heating power for a paricular material. From here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating I got the formula for heating power is \$Q = \omega \cdot \epsilon^{''}_{_{r}}\cdot \epsilon_{0} \cdot E^{2}\$ I get other parts but am stuck on \$\epsilon^{''}_{_{r}}\$ which wiki says is the "is the imaginary part of the complex relative permittivity of the absorbing material". |

It seems you better have to find a more simplified version of the formula, as the one you try elaborate is pretty difficult to mess with. Look at "Complex Permittivity" on wikipedia. |

The dielectric loss tangent (\$tan \delta\$) Is it possible to derive "Epsilon R double dash" from these? |
| iMo:
epsilon_double_dash (function of omega) = |D0/E0|*sin(delta) Still the whole stuff is not manageable easily, imho. There must be some engineering tables or simple equations available too.. |
