Abstract
A chromatography oven is described to achieve faster cool-down rates and to preferably lower the temperature difference that can be maintained between the oven temperature and ambient temperature. The oven includes a suitable housing having front and rear walls and four side walls, a fan within the housing adjacent to the rear walls, an ambient air intake vent means in the rear wall, and an exhaust vent means within a rear corner of one of the side walls adjacent to the rear wall for exhausting the tangential flow of air created by the rotating fan.
