2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the temperature of the emitter, the wavelength of the peak of the infrared radiation ranges from 750 nm to 1 mm.

3. Space heater - Wikipedia

   These heaters are often designed such that the frequency of the emitted waves are in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The materials used in radiant heaters can vary. Halogen heaters have tungsten filaments in sealed quartz envelopes, mounted in front of a metal reflector in a plastic case. They operate at a higher temperature ...

   The development of quartz halogen linear lamps allowed much higher power density up to 200 watts/inch of lamp (8 w/mm), useful for industrial heating, drying and processing applications. [3] By adjusting the voltage applied to incandescent lamps, the spectrum of the radiated energy can be made to reduce visible light and emphasize infrared ...

5. Halogen lamp - Wikipedia

   Halogen lamps are the heating-elements in halogen ovens, infrared heaters and ceramic cooktops. Low wattage halogen lamp arrays are widely used by monitor lizard keepers. Two or three small halogen lamps can produce all the heat needed in an enclosure and are recognized by the animals as sources of heat preventing curious individuals from ...

6. Heating element - Wikipedia

   Gold-coated – HeLeN quartz infrared heat lamps as originally patented and manufactured by Philips. A gold dichroic film is deposited on the inside that reduces the visible light and allows most of the short and medium wave infrared through. These tubular quartz lamps are designed for services other than illumination. [11]

7. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

   Heating appliances that use steam or hot water as the fluid are normally referred to as a residential steam boilers or residential hot water boilers. The most common fuel source for modern furnaces in North America and much of Europe is natural gas; other common fuel sources include LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), fuel oil, wood and in rare ...
