An understanding of the microwave propagation and absorption in Elmo bumpy torus is critical because the plasma production, the heating, and the stabilization provided by the hot electron rings are dependent on these processes. A microwave power balance model was proposed earlier for EBT. This paper will describe a series of simple experiments designed to test this model by comparing its predictions and assumptions to both calorimetric and broad beam antenna measurements of microwave power at the wall in EBT-I/S.
