An improved batch coil furnace is disclosed in that the annealing stand or base of the furnace is provided with a source for auxiliary heating or cooling of the work. A cylindrical containment wall is heated by hot burner products of combustion convectively impinging the outside surface of the containment wall. A unique jet tube impingement bundle is positioned within the base to form the recirculating cover atmosphere into jet streams which convectively impinge the inside surface of the containment wall. The furnace atmosphere is thus heated prior to being recirculated into the inner cover with the result that the temperatures of all the coils within the inner cover are more uniform. Provisions are made for cooling the outside surface of the containment wall after the coils have been heated to their transformation temperature. Finally, a baffle is applied to the base portion of the inner cover which, in conjunction with water cooling of the inner cover's annular flange, permits a constant temperature gradient to occur within the inner cover to avoid premature thermal fatigue or shock failure.
