• In the cold belt area, the icing phenomenon often appears on the airport pavement, which affects the safety of aircraft take-off and landing. Microwave deicing technology can effectively solve this practical problem and has many advantages. Taking microwave deicing technology as the research object and the surface temperature of pavement concrete as the index, an open microwave test system has been established in this paper. Based on this system, the temperature distribution, variation rule, and influencing factors of concrete have been studied systematically. The results show that the surface temperature of concrete increases linearly due to microwave action. In addition, during the microwave action, the temperature increase of the concrete surface is centered on the center point and shows a stepwise decreasing trend along the radius. At the same time, the increase of microwave source height leads to the increase of surface temperature distribution uniformity. The surface ice affects the rate of temperature increase of concrete in stages under microwave action, and the surface edge area remains frozen for a certain period of time. The temperature distribution of concrete surface is a decisive factor affecting the degree of ice removal, and the concrete surface will generate residual heat after the microwave action ends. This phenomenon can delay the regression of the temperature distribution of the concrete surface, thus effectively preventing the re-freezing of the ice layer.
