Abstract (en)

[origin: US5014339A] A device for heating a flow of substantially pure gas flowing in a flow direction to temperatures above about 600 DEG C. is disclosed. The device includes a heat exchanger having a heat exchanger surface extending transversely to the flow direction whereby the substantially pure gas flows across the heat exchanger surface. The heat exchanger is made of a ceramic material for heating the pure gas without contaminating the gas flow. An infrared radiation source arranged outside of the flow of pure gas irradiates the heat exchanger surface.
