The present invention relates to an inductively heated convection oven, comprising: a) an outer housing having a plurality of different sides joined together to form an enclosed space with at least one of the sides forming a door to provide access to the enclosed space; b) an inner housing having a plurality of different sides joined together to form an enclosed oven space - spaced from and supported within the sides of the outer housing and having at least one side thereof facing the door of the outer housing providing access to the interior of the enclosed oven space; c) at least one ventilation fan adapted for circulating air around the enclosed oven space, wherein the flow path of the circulated air is defined by the space between the inner and outer housing; d) at least one induction heating unit supported within the space intermediate respective confronting sides of the inner and outer housings and arranged in a plane that is essentially parallel to a respective side of a magnetically susceptible element to maximize the inductive coupling to said element; and e) control means for electrically exciting the induction heating unit at a relatively high frequency of the order of kilohertz to thereby magnetically induce the generation of induction heating at the flow path of the circulated air. |
