The only difference between his ceramic heater and your normal electric heater is the element is probably wrapped around a ceramic core and this then heats up the outer plate whereas yours just has elements and relies on natural convection to.
Convection coefficient for ceramic.
Convection is the transfer of heat due to the bulk movement of molecules within fluids gases and liquids including molten rock convection includes sub mechanisms of advection directional bulk flow transfer of heat and diffusion non directional transfer of energy or mass particles along a concentration gradient.
