A steam generator for a convection oven through the oven chamber of which heated air is circulated by means of a fan along a flow path in which the steam generator is positioned, comprises a heat-storage unit having a stack of elongated horizontal supports for supporting ball-shaped heat-storage bodies and means for spreading water over the heat-storage unit. Each support includes a bottom wall having a plurality of polygonal apertures which form seats for respective ones of the heat-storage bodies. The apertures, the size of which is substantially smaller than the largest cross-section of the heat-storage bodies, form flow passages through which water from overlying supports is passed to the top portion of the heat-storage bodies of underlying supports.
