2. Fan heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_heater

   Electric fan heater. A fan heater, also called a blow heater, is a heater that works by using a fan to pass air over a heat source (e.g. a heating element). [1] This heats up the air, which then leaves the heater, warming up the surrounding room. They can heat an enclosed space such as a room faster than a heater without a fan, [2] but like any ...

3. Convection heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_heater

   A convection heater, also known as a convector heater, is a type of heater that utilizes convection currents [1] to heat and circulate air. These currents move through the appliance and across its heating element, [ 2 ] using thermal conduction [ 3 ] to warm the air and decrease its density relative to colder air, causing it to rise.

4. Electric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

   An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current into heat. [1] The heating element inside every electric heater is an electrical resistor , and works on the principle of Joule heating : an electric current passing through a resistor will convert that electrical energy into heat energy.

5. Space heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_heater

   Convective space heaters utilize convection to transfer heat from the power source to a space. These heaters typically either rely on natural or forced convection. Natural convection is a phenomenon where temperature variations in an environment generate fluid flow. Forced convection heaters utilize a device like a fan to generate air flow and ...

6. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   Electric heating or resistance heating converts electricity directly to heat. Electric heat is often more expensive than heat produced by combustion appliances like natural gas, propane, and oil. Electric resistance heat can be provided by baseboard heaters, space heaters, radiant heaters, furnaces, wall heaters, or thermal storage systems.

7. The Difference Between Convection and Conventional Ovens - AOL

   Convection ovens are built with a fan placed in the back of the oven. When you turn on the convection setting, the fan blows warm air all around the inside of the oven, promoting rapid and even ...
