Industrial Oven Terms
– The process of changing the properties
of a metal or an alloy through temperature changes.
– The process of softening an object or changing other
properties of the object through cycles of heating and cooling.
– The amount of force the atmosphere exerts
upon the earth’s surface, measuring 14.7 psi at sea level.
– Removing entrained gases by heating the object up to a
low temperature.
– The
amount of heat necessary to change the temperature of one pound of water
by one degree Fahrenheit.
– A form of heat transfer through the application of
heat to a solid object followed by the subsequent spread of the heat
through the object.
– Heat transfer between two objects, one of which is
either a liquid or a gas. During convection, the pull of gravity initiates
fluid circulation, causing heated molecules to rise and cool molecules
to fall.
– The process involving the solidification of a material
through heating and drying, in which the temperature of the cured object
is maintained during the process.
– The process of removing a solvent such as moisture from
an object.
– The capability of the surface to emanate radiant energy.
– The exchange between matter, or parts of the same
matter, which always occurs from warm to cool.
– The process of changing properties in solid metals
or alloys through heating and cooling applications.
– The process of setting the shape of yarn or carpet
fibers through the application of heat and/or steam. For example, heatsetting
creates a permanent twist in yarn.
– Applying heat to an object after the manufacturing
process, such as brazing, welding or soldering.
– A dry finishing process that utilizes finely ground,
electrostatically charged particles, which are sprayed onto a part to
be coated. When placed in an oven, the charged parts melt and fuse into
a durable, even coating.
– The application of heat before the manufacturing process.
– The supplication of heat to an object or material.
– The rapid cooling of a heated object.
– The movement of energy in the form of particles, rays
or waves.
– The creation of heat by the transfer of energy.
– The formation of large particles from a heap of small,
fine particles through the application of heat. In the sintering process,
the temperature remains below the melting point.
– Reducing stress in a metal object by raising
the temperature of the object and maintaining the object’s temperature
for a specified amount of time.
– Heating steel by different means to a given temperature
and then cooling it, in order to reduce the brittleness in the hardened
steel.
– The application of heat to produce interlocking
among fibers and fabrics.
