Abstract: An oven comprises an enclosure in which an intermediate wall separates a first part for containing materials to be cooked from a second part containing the functional units of the oven and in particular a fan and a burner. The burner is on the downstream side of the fan in the direction of the flow of air caused by the fan and the flame that it produces is oriented transversely to the direction of air flow. The burner outlet orifices are oriented to allow any water condensing in the burner to drain out by gravity. The intermediate wall is removable for cleaning. This maximizes the volume of the first enclosure part and considerably facilitates cleaning of the functional units of the oven, without disturbance to the operation of the burner.
