These devices may be for one-time use (a thermal fuse), or may be reset manually or automatically (a thermal switch).

  3. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

    A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to vibrate [2] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating. Microwave ovens heat foods quickly and efficiently ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating

    Dielectric heating, also known as electronic heating, radio frequency heating, and high-frequency heating, is the process in which a radio frequency (RF) alternating electric field, or radio wave or microwave electromagnetic radiation heats a dielectric material. At higher frequencies, this heating is caused by molecular dipole rotation within ...

  6. Fan heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 fan, create a degree ...

  7. Electric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

    Electric heating is a process in which electrical energy is converted directly to heat energy. Common applications include space heating, cooking, water heating and industrial processes. 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 ...
