Technology Behind UFO
InfraredWays of Heat TransferTypes of IR Radiation
Infrared
• The Infrared, is the radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum between 0.760 μm and 1000 μm wavelength coming after the visible light, invisible to human eye but felt as heat.
• Ultraviolet, visible light and infrared rays reach to the Earth from our life source Sun. It is the infrared rays that contributes to warming of the Earth. We feel a warmth on our bodies, even in winter, when the sun shines through the clouds. This does not mean that the earth suddenly warms up. We feel warm because of the photons, which constitute the rays of light, leaving their energy on the surfaces they hit. The operation principle of UFO Infrared Heaters is based on this phenomenon. It emits medium wave infrared rays. Photons in these rays leave their energy to the surfaces they hit and warm them.

Infrared
• Most significant feature of infrared radiation is transfering heat without using a media .We can feel the heat of the Sun in winter in very cold weather when it shines.
• IR radiation of the Sun goes through the atmosphere without heating it.Our atmosphere starts to heat up only after the IR rays of Sun hit to Earth’s surface and re-radiates. The reason of this phenomenon is the wavelenght of IR rays from Sun is not in the absorbable range for air, but the re-radiation of Earth surface is.

• This is the heat transfer by contact from a hot object to a cooler one.Conduction
• This type requires a fluid media to transfer heat.Our classical heating systems are based on this system
Convection
• Heat transfer by light.No media required.The most efficient way of heat transfer.Minimum heat losses.
Radiation
Ways of Heat Transfer
• High glare,loss of energy as visible light.Not suitable for indoors use.May cause eye irritation.Most objects and human body can not absorb totally.Lamp temperature is high.
Short Wave
• Low glare,Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.Most of the objects and human body can easily absorb the energy thus is more efficient.Lamp temperature is comperatively low.
Medium Wave
• No glare.Surface temperature is low (50-300 C)It has a higher convectional transfer as well.Long Wave
Types of IR Radiation
Advantages of UFO-IR Systems
• One of the key factors of UFO IR filament’s efficiency is its patented helezonic resistance wire winding.
• IR – Medium and fast medium wave UFO IR heating systems transfer more than 90% of the energy Consumed via radiation
• Most of the materials absorb the radiant IR – medium and fast medium wave energy with minimum energy loss.
• UFO- Quartz tube Ø23 mm with high transmission efficiency, high material and production quality.
• High quality optical reflector with more than 90% reflection.
What are the advantages?
EconomicalHealthCost
ECONOMICAL ADVANTAGES• Transfers heat up to 80% more
efficient compared to other systems.• Heats directly the objects and people• Provides with deep and homogeneous
heat• It is instant,practical and local• Allows to control and direct the heat• Portable• Minimum infiltration ( insulation ) heat
losses as it does not heat the air directly.
• No infrastructure needed• Almost no maintanence cost.• No need to heat unnecessary parts of
a volume• Converts almost 100% of the
electrical energy consumed to heat energy.
Advantages Related With Health
Used for keeping new born babies warm as it is hygienic and harmless.
Cost Of Heat
• Keeping the general heating system of a house 1 degree below the actual level saves 10% on heating costs. Higher humidity in the room will make us feel the heat more which will lead to saving on our heating costs.
• The cost of heating room of the same size with UFO and any other conventional system is always cheaper with UFO due to installation and running costs especially at places with high ceilings or with high foot traffic.
• With 2.o Kw UFO IR heater we reached the target temperature in 2.5 hours consuming 5 Kw of electric energy.1
• With a 2.0 Kw electrical convector we reached the target temperature in 4 hours consuming 8 Kw of energy2
• With a water panel heater we reached the target temperature in 4 hours consuming 17.16Kw of natural gas energy.

Dummy Test
• 2 x 2.oKw UFO IR heaters brought the average temperature on the body of the test dummy from 54⁰ F to 69⁰ F in 1 hour , consuming 4 Kw of electric energy.– Test room set up with UFO
• 2x 2.0Kw electrical convector heater brought the average temperature on the body of the test dummy from 54⁰ F to 68⁰ F in 3 hours ,consuming 12 Kw of electric energy.– Test room set up with Convector
How and where we can use UFO?
Learning Objectives
• Places with high ceilings• Places where there is high
air circulation• Places where local heating
is required• Places where temporary
