Abstract
An induction heater having inner and outer chamber cylinders connected in an air tight manner to a base and cover with an inner chamber being formed within the inner chamber cylinder and an outer chamber being formed between the inner and outer chamber cylinders, a heat exchange core disposed in the inner chamber, and an induction heater coil disposed in the outer chamber extending around the inner chamber cylinder. A flow path is provided from a cool air inlet in the base, along the outer chamber, into the inner chamber and through the inner chamber and core to a heated air outlet in the base in a counterflow direction relative to the flow along the outer chamber. The heater is especially well suited for use in convective soldering and rework apparatus.
