METHODS OF INCREASING THE ABSORPTION CAPACITY OF METALS TO IR RADIATION BY CREATING A SURFACE COMPOSITE LAYER SATURATED WITH NANOMATERIALS

Among the technological processes that require significant energy consumption, a significant role is played by the heating processes carried out by electric infrared heaters. The efficiency of such heaters is defined as the perfection of the heater, that is, its ability to most effectively convert electrical energy into infrared energy and the ability to direct the flow of infrared radiation to the receiver as well as the perfection of the receiver, that is, its absorptive capacity and ability to transfer heat with minimal loss of the heated substance
