The heat from the coil is circulated by a convection system; a fan moving the hot air around the coil around your food. This creates a cooking system that is even and steady, with some extra heat for food directly under the coil. The ability to cook oil-free or with extremely limited oil is due to the airflow pattern in the air fryer.
