Abstract

An indirect radiant heating device burns gaseous or liquid fossil fuels for the heat treatment of running products, such as bars, tubes, and strips kept in a protective atmosphere. The device includes a radiant cassette of parallelepipedal shape, with a continuous radiating surface whose cross section, in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the cassette, is delimited by a continuous line which falls inside a rectangle whose height/width ratio is greater than 1.5.
