Heating apparatus, particularly for heating materials contained within drums or similar containers, has a metal base plate 12 with an induction heating coil 16 beneath the plate. The container 24 to be heated is placed on the base, and may be surrounded by a cylindrical jacket 28 with a further induction coil 34 in the jacket wall. On energising the coils, induction currents flow in the metal base plate (and in the jacket wall) to produce heat which is transmitted to the container and its contents. In another embodiment, the base plate may just receive heat energy from a jacket coil. |
