Abstract
A device for heating a plurality of radiant absorbers which utilizes a source of radiant energy in conjunction with a plurality of curved reflective surfaces. The reflective surfaces function to provide a device which directs essentially all of the radiation emitted by the radiant source onto the radiant absorbers. High efficiency is obtained as well as the ability to heat more than one radiant absorber simultaneously. Reflective surfaces can comprise, in general, curved surfaces, multiradius surfaces, or portions of ellipses.
