AB  - This research describes the technology and applications of infrared heating. The basic principles behind the technology and its important properties are shown. It is shown that the desired transfer of thermal energy is dependant on several factors, like emissivity and shape coefficient.  However, in many industrial production processes infrared heating offers advantages with respect to conventional heating techniques such as convection or hot air ovens. Infrared heating is after all characterised by high energy densities, rapid heating and relative ease of installation. All these advantages offer the possibility of higher production speeds, more compact installations and lower investment costs.
