Abstract: Experimental analyses of the thermal performances of (i) various heating-element configurations, (ii) a low-emissivity internal oven-lining, (iii) control systems for regulating internal air temperatures, and (iv) various thermal-insulation systems for an oven have been undertaken. Overall, a substantial increase in the thermal efficiency was achieved, i.e. from 17 to 26%. This compares favourably with the value of 13%, as measured for a typical commercially available domestic oven.
