An electric convection oven is provided wherein a squirrel cage fan is used to circulate air through a circular bank of heating coils surrounding the fan and into the oven. The coils wrap around the fan and are spaced from each other so that air from the fan will pass through the coils and into the oven. The fan is provided with a concave centrally located plate for drawing air from within the oven into the fan for recirculation through the heating coils and to return to the oven. 1, record 4, English, - electric%20convection%20oven

[...] le four TITUS [a été mis en marche] pour réaliser les expériences INSITU et EQUI. Ces deux expériences étudient, grâce à la micropesanteur, les phénomènes de solidification en l'absence de convection. La solidification d’un alliage métallique est en effet un phénomène complexe. Dans un «barreau» dont les extrémités sont maintenues à des températures hautes et basses encadrant la température du point de fusion, il s’établit un front de solidification. Selon les écarts de température(le gradient), ce front peut prendre différents aspects. Pour un faible gradient de température, le front de solidification demeure pratiquement plan. Dans ces conditions, en avant du front apparaissent, autour d’impuretés microscopiques, des grains de solidification à partir desquels la solidification s’effectue dans toutes les directions. Si le gradient augmente, le front se transforme et présente des petites excroissances solidifiées(des colonnes) qui donnent une croissance cristalline cellulaire(régulière). Si le gradient est encore plus important, ces colonnes se ramifient et donne une croissance cristalline dendritique(irrégulière). L'expérience INSITU étudie plus précisément la croissance cellulaire à l'aide d’un alliage cuivre-manganèse dont le point de fusion est de 870°C. L'expérience EQUI étudie la propagation de la solidification dans toutes les directions autour des noyaux de solidification(croissance «equiaxe») en utilisant un alliage aluminium-nickel dont la température de fusion est de 640°C. 2, record 5, French, - four%20Titus
