Infrared Gas Brooders We ve simply copied the principle of the sun The sun gives living creatures heat in the form of infrared electromagnetic waves. These have the particularity that they travel across the air without heating it, affecting the mass of objects, surfaces and living creatures, when they become heat and increases their temperature. Infraconic brooders work on the same principle Infrared radiation gives an agreeable feeling in the surface of bodies. The indirect effect of radiant heat can be noted by heating of the surrounding surfaces, such as the floor and other objects. The result is an extremely comfortable ambient temperature, which can be achieved with relatively low air temperatures. The mathematical formula expressing the physical correlation between air temperature and radiation temperature is as follows: Considerable energy savings Radiant heat offsets low air temperatures. Because of the lower air temperature, the difference between the interior and the exterior air temperature is considerably reduced, minimizing losses through air renewal to a large extent. Consequently, you save energy and considerably cut your operating costs. With convective heating systems, hot air rises, far away from the area where it is needed. Infrared radiation, however, heats the objects and living creatures it comes into contact with. The air is heated indirectly, upon contact with the hot masses. The heat is therefore transmitted to where it is needed. What s more, the temperature is distributed evenly, thanks to the coneshaped design of the radiant surfaces, producing uniform circles with different comfort levels. The animals can move freely, choosing the most suitable area for their heat requirements. t R = t L + t S Where: t R = resulting temperature t L = air temperature t S = mean radiant temperature The advantages of Infraconic brooders: High energy efficiency: 30% 40% energy savings compared with conventional systems High quality, durability and comfortable heat Option of partial heating No dust is stirred up or air draughts produced Quick to reach full operating conditions This expression tells us that we can obtain the same degree of comfort with different air temperatures.
