2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   A heat lamp is an incandescent light bulb that is used for the principal purpose of creating heat. The spectrum of black-body radiation emitted by the lamp is shifted to produce more infrared light. Many heat lamps include a red filter to minimize the amount of visible light emitted. Heat lamps often include an internal reflector.

3. Infrared lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_lamp

   Infrared heating uses infrared lamps, commonly called heat lamps, to transmit infrared radiation to the body that is being heated. When a body with a large surface area needs to be heated, an array of infrared lamps is often used. The lamp commonly contains an incandescent bulb that produces infrared radiation.

4. Infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared

   Infrared radiation can be used as a deliberate heating source. For example, it is used in infrared saunas to heat the occupants. It may also be used in other heating applications, such as to remove ice from the wings of aircraft (de-icing). [39] Infrared radiation is used in cooking, known as broiling or grilling. One energy advantage is that ...

5. Electric light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_light

   Electric lamps can be used as heat sources, for example in incubators, as infrared lamps in fast food restaurants and toys such as the Kenner Easy-Bake Oven. [ 44 ] Lamps can also be used for light therapy to deal with such issues as vitamin D deficiency , [ 45 ] skin conditions such as acne [ 46 ] [ 47 ] and dermatitis , [ 48 ] skin cancers ...

6. Far infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_infrared

   Far infrared (FIR) or long wave refers to a specific range within the infrared spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. It encompasses radiation with wavelengths ranging from 15 μm (micrometers) to 1 mm, which corresponds to a frequency range of approximately 20 THz to 300 GHz. This places far infrared radiation within the CIE IR-B and IR-C ...

7. Halogen oven - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_oven

   The halogen lamp is turned on and off [5] by a simple thermostat or electronic control and generates waves of infrared light to heat the air within the heating chamber. [2] The fan then circulates this heated air throughout the chamber to evenly cook the contents of the bowl through convective heat transfer, or convection.
