because it just is
Who uses gas stoves now? We have convection microwaves!
The difference is the way the heat is produced. In an electric oven electricity runs through the heating element to produce heat. In a gas oven there is a gas jet that is actually burning, lit by the pilot light and that is how the heat is produced. The gas oven is superior for cooking, but required you to have gas lines in your house and comes with the added risk of flamable gas. <><><> The easy answer is that a gas oven uses gas to heat and an electric oven uses electricity <><><> Using gas, you have the required heat in seconds, not minutes if using an electrical oven. Its just easier to change the temperature level on a gas oven, and faster. People who are used to cooking with gas have time issues with electric ovens. <><><> An electric convection uses electric bake and broil elements and one or more fans in the back of the oven to circulate heat, this is called either fan assist baking or "convection" HOWEVER,,, in order to be a "true convection", "europian convection", or "true europian convection", it MUST HAVE A THIRD ELEMENT!!! The third element is located behind the fan/fans in the back of the oven. If there's not a third element on an electric range, it is not a true convection oven. With gas, typically, it will just be a fan assist bake using gas heat. However, if it is a true convection, europian convection, or true europian convection, it will have an electric-yes electric- element behind the fan/fans that is run off of the 120 outlet just like the electronic ignighters and digital controls.
There are some gas ranges with convection overs but they'll cost a bit more than a traditional range.
A convection oven moves the air, a microwave does not.
convection oven :)
is a oven a radiation convection or conductin
A convection oven has a fan installed - to circulate the hot air that builds up. The use of the fan means the oven doesn't create 'cold spots' and thus the food cooks evenly. This speeds up cooking time - making the oven more cost-effective. A 'regular' oven has no fan, and thus has uneven temperatures throughout the cooking compartment.
