Ovens function as enclosed chambers or tunnels, containing food items placed on scorching hot surfaces. The intense heat transforms raw ingredients into baked, cooked, and delicious food items, such as bread and cake.
Energy for ovens is generated through the combustion of electricity, gas, or fuels. The exothermic process of combustion produces heat, which is then transferred to the food items through conduction, convection, or radiation.
To safeguard the inner space of the oven, high-temperature-resistant materials are incorporated. These materials play a crucial role in maintaining and sustaining temperatures over extended periods.

Ovens are commonly recognized as enclosed spaces that are integral components of cookers used for both cooking and baking.

During the Second World War, the term “oven” took on a broader meaning and became a universal term. In this context, the term was used to refer to grim places such as a funeral or gas chamber located within a Nazi Concentration Camp, emphasizing the intense and boiling conditions within.
