ABSTRACT COOKSON‚ EDWARD JAMES. Development of the Metal Foam Electrical Resistance Heater. (Under the Direction of Dr. Albert Shih.) This thesis presents a novel concept using a radial heating element made from porous Fe-Cr-Al metal foam in an air heater. Electrical resistance heating has been used extensively to convert the electrical energy into thermal energy. An analytic heat transfer model is first developed to estimate dimensions of the heating element. Four prototype Fe-Cr-Al metal
