What is the difference between a carbon fiber heating lamp and an infrared heating lamp?
Heating principle
Carbon fiber heating lamp: It uses the conductivity of carbon fiber materials. When current passes through carbon fiber, due to the resistance characteristics of carbon fiber, electrical energy is converted into thermal energy and heat is generated. This heating method is similar to traditional resistance wire heating, but carbon fiber has better electric-to-thermal conversion efficiency. For example, at the same power, carbon fiber can convert more electrical energy into thermal energy and reduce energy loss.
Infrared heating lamp: It mainly heats the internal heat source (such as filament) to generate high temperature and then emit infrared rays. Infrared is an electromagnetic wave. When infrared rays are irradiated on an object, the molecules in the object absorb the energy of infrared rays, causing the molecular vibration and rotation to intensify, thereby increasing the temperature of the object. For example, in the industrial drying process, the infrared rays emitted by the infrared heating lamp are absorbed by the dried object to achieve the purpose of heating.
