Abstract
In a steam oven suitable for cooking foods, for example, with a fixed distributor for the water to be evaporated, air is aspirated to form a central flow of aspirated air by a cylindrical fan and is discharged radially at the periphery toward heating elements. Water is fed into the interior of the fan by an inlet pipe and distributed in the depthwise direction of the fan by a distributor structure including a pipe end section having a lateral slot and a fixed inclined distributor plate. The invention applies to steam oven suitable for cooking foods, and assures good distribution of the water over all the heating elements so that it is evaporated.
