RADIANT HEATERS

There are three main modes off heat transfer are:

• Conductive - When to bodies off different temperature are brought in contact with each other, heat energy      flows from the hotter to the colder body.
• Convection - Heat energy is transfered from a high temperature region in a gas or liquid to lower temperature region as a result of movement of masses within the fluid of gas.
• Radiation - Infrared radiant energy is transported throughout space by electromagnetic waves without a conductive media. Consequently, heat can delivered in concentrat areas at very fast rates. Electromagnetic radiation can be further broken down into four categories:

1. Ultraviolet
2. Infrared
3. Microwave
4. Induction

Application of Radiant Heater:

• Plastifying of plastic sheets & roll for thermoforming & vacuum forming.
• Preheating or vulcanizing rubber sheets.
• Drying of paper pulp.
• Keeping food warm.
• Packaging food products.
• Manufacturing shrink packaging equipment.
• Ink drying.
