Abstract:

A convection system includes a housing, a chimney defined in the housing to pass fluid into and out of the housing, and a fan rotatably coupled to the housing to create a pressure differential within the housing to pass the fluid into the housing. The convection system also includes a heating element located in juxtaposition to the fan to heat the fluid passed into the housing via the chimney, and a thermal fuse located at an orifice of the chimney between the chimney and the heating element. In response to a failure of the fan, heated fluid from the heating element converts through the chimney past the thermal fuse. The convection of the heated fluid increases a rate of heat transfer to the thermal fuse.
