5.2 Energy Input Rate???This test is used to confirm the test oven's rated input and to ensure its proper operation during all testing.
5.3 Fan and Control Energy Rate???Information from this test can be used to estimate the cost of electricity required to operate a gas oven. This cost can be added to the cost of gas consumed to estimate the total cost of energy necessary to operate the oven.
5.4 Pilot Energy Rate???This test provides a measure of a gas oven's energy consumption rate during periods when its burner is not on.
5.5 Preheat Energy Consumption and Time???This test provides a measure of time and energy required to preheat the oven cavity from ambient temperature to the thermostat set point temperature.
5.6 Idle Energy Rate???This test provides a measure of an empty oven's energy consumption at a typical cooking temperature setting. It also provides an indicator of the combined effectiveness of components of the oven's design (for example, insulation, door seals, and combustion efficiency) that influence its energy consumption.
5.7 Cooking Energy Efficiency???This test provides a measure of the oven's energy efficiency while heavy loads of a standard food product are being cooked.
5.8 Production Capacity???This test provides information that allows an operator to select an oven that matches food output requirements.
5.9 Cooking Uniformity???This test provides information regarding the oven's ability to cook food at the same rate throughout the oven's cavity.
5.10 White Sheet Cake Browning???This test provides information regarding the oven's ability to brown white sheet cakes uniformly through its cavity.
5.11 Bakery Steam Performance???This test provides information on a bakery convection oven???s ability to consistently create steam for a baking cycle.
1.1 This test method covers the energy consumption and cooking performance evaluation of convection ovens. The test method is also applicable to convection ovens with limited moisture injection. The results of applying it can be used by the food service operator to select a convection oven and to understand its energy......
