The present disclosure is directed to a multi-heat source apparatus. The multi heat source may include a fire pit and is configured to provide ambient heating with both convection heat transfer and radiation heat transfer. The multi-heat source apparatus comprises an infrared emitter for generating infrared radiation. The multi-heat source apparatus comprises a shielding member between a heat source for the convection heat transfer and another heat source for radiation heat transfer.

The present disclosure relates to sous-vide cooking in an oven of a cooking appliance. A temperature probe senses a temperature of a water bath or the food in the water bath, which is placed in the oven cavity. The sensed temperature is used as a feedback input for a controller that controls a heating element of the appliance in a manner that causes the water and food to reach a desired final temperature of the food in equilibrium with the water bath, which in turn is in equilibrium with the air in the cavity.

The present invention is directed to a multi-heat source fire pit apparatus. The fire pit apparatus is configured to provide ambient heating with both convection heat transfer and radiation heat transfer. The multi-heat source fire pit apparatus comprises an infrared emitter for generating infrared radiation. The multi-heat source fire pit comprises a shielding member between a heat source for the convection heat transfer and another heat source for radiation heat transfer.

A stove for indoor use includes a housing having a bottom wall, a top wall and one or more side walls defining a combustion chamber adapted to retain a fire, and an air supply system for supplying air to the combustion chamber. The air supply system includes a primary air conduit for supplying air to the combustion chamber from below through the bottom wall and a secondary air conduit for supplying air to the combustion chamber from above. A valve is arranged in the primary air conduit or in a branching between the primary and secondary air conduits. The valve is controlled by a bimetal whereby the valve is in a maximum open position when the prevailing temperature is below a first predetermined temperature during start-up of a fire and in a maximum closed position when the prevailing temperature is above a second predetermined temperature after start-up of the fire.

An electric heating device includes at least two hollow profile elements which form a fluid channel for a fluid to be heated and, opposite the fluid channel, a heating chamber which is bounded by opposite contact surfaces against which at least one PTC element abuts in a heat-conducting manner. A scalable and easier to assemble electric heating device is achieved by connecting the hollow profile elements to one another by complementary form-fit segments.

According to one embodiment, a rack includes a pair of spaced apart inverted U shaped brackets. Each bracket has a top portion coupled in-between a rear leg and a front leg and forming a gap in-between the rear leg and the front leg. The top portion, the rear leg, and front leg of each bracket are disposed in a first plane. The rack further includes one or more horizontal coupling members coupled in-between the pair of brackets. The horizontal coupling members and the front leg of each bracket are disposed in a second plane that is orthogonal to the first plane. The rack also includes one or more first horizontal supporting members coupled to and extending outward from a first bracket of the pair of brackets. The first horizontal supporting members are disposed in a third plane that is orthogonal to the first and second planes.

A heater with a visual flame display is described. The heater may include a top portion and a base, separated by concentric cylinders. The innermost cylinder houses a flame element, which may be spun into a vortex. The cylinders may be constructed from transparent materials such that the flame element is visible to an observer. The base provides heat at or near ground level for efficient heat distribution.
