2. Oil heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_heater

   A 500-watt heater will take at least twice as long to reach the same thermostat setting as a 1000-watt unit; however, the total electricity consumption will be the same for both. Additionally, the rate of heat flow from a heater to the air directly in contact with it is higher when there is a greater temperature difference between the two.

3. Thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

   The power through the thermostat is provided by the heating device and may range from millivolts to 240 volts in common North American construction, and is used to control the heating system either directly (electric baseboard heaters and some electric furnaces) or indirectly (all gas, oil and forced hot water systems).

4. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   Infrared heaters can be operated in vacuum or atmosphere. One classification of infrared heaters is by the wavelength bands of infrared emission. Short wave or near infrared for the range from 750 nm to 1.4 μm; these emitters are also named "bright" because still some visible light is emitted; Medium infrared for the range between 1.4 μm and ...

   The low corona, near the surface of the Sun, has a particle density around 10 15 m −3 to 10 16 m −3. [ 83 ] [ e ] The average temperature of the corona and solar wind is about 1,000,000–2,000,000 K; however, in the hottest regions it is 8,000,000–20,000,000 K. [ 84 ] Although no complete theory yet exists to account for the temperature ...
