A batch furnace for annealing material, in particular a single chamber furnace or single coil furnace, with a furnace housing. The batch furnace has a closable charging opening, a receiving chamber for receiving furnace material, and a device for convective heat transfer onto the furnace material by a heat transfer medium. The batch furnace includes at least one fan, which is arranged in the furnace housing, at least one heating device for the heat transfer medium and/or at least one inlet for an externally heated heat transfer medium, wherein the heating device and/or the inlet is arranged directly in front of the intake side or directly behind the pressure side of the fan or circumferentially in an annular gap between the fan and the furnace housing, and a receiving chamber for the furnace material, which is arranged on the pressure side of the fan.

Batch furnace for annealing material and method for heat treatment

The present invention relates to a batch furnace for annealing material comprising a furnace housing which has a closable loading opening, a receiving chamber for furnace material and a device for convective heat transfer to the furnace material by a heat transfer medium, wherein the device for convective heat transfer comprises at least one heating device and at least one fan which is arranged in the furnace housing wherein the receiving chamber is arranged on the suction side of the fan and at least one nozzle array is arranged on the pressure side of the fan, wherein the nozzle array has a central opening which forms an intake duct of the fan and the nozzle array projects radially beyond the fan. The invention further relates to a method for heat treatment of a furnace material.
