ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an apparatus and method to redirect airflow and enhance heat transfer using an oscillating baffle in a baking system. This apparatus and method allows for the improved efficiency of a cooling tunnel, while reducing the size of the tunnel. Several embodiments of the oscillating baffle have a first degree of freedom and a second degree of freedom which allows it to oscillate under the power of the airflow. The method employs the oscillating baffle to redirect and mix the airflow in order to enhance heat transfer in the cooling tunnel. The oscillating baffle is used for cooling, for heating, for enhancing the mixing of a multi-component air flow or redirecting an air flow in the baking system.
