The present invention relates to a radiant tube apparatus disposed in a heat treatment facility to perform a heat treatment of a strip and a method for manufacturing the same. The radiant tube apparatus includes a tube having an internal pipe, wherein the tube has a first continuous pattern and a second continuous pattern extending side by side and spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance on a surface, and, in each of the first continuous pattern and the second continuous pattern, a plurality of unit patterns having a predetermined height from the surface are connected to each other in a longitudinal direction.

This is an upright heater igniting combustible gas to induce a naturally aspirated flame within a glass tube. Air channels producing the naturally aspirated flame enters the glass tube in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the flame thus creating a twirling flame. Heat waves generated by the twirling flame within a glass tube rises to a heat concentrator and projected onto a parabolic heat shield thus reflecting the heat wave radially downward and outward.

A recirculating micro-combustor device and a method of formation includes an array of reactors contacting each other. Each reactor includes a front wall; an end wall oppositely positioned to the front wall; a pair of edge walls connecting the front wall to the end wall; an inlet port positioned in the front wall; a pair of outlet ports positioned in the front wall; and a combustion chamber connected to the inlet port and positioned between the front wall and the end wall. The combustion chamber includes a pair of inner walls defining a first area to accommodate a chemical combustion therein, and a pair of second areas to accommodate an exhaust of a reaction of the chemical combustion. The pair of second areas connect to the pair of outlet ports. Adjacent edge walls of adjacent reactors directly contact each other to form the array of reactors.

In order to create a safe and simply designed fire column, the flame of which is fed from a fuel tank, in particular for bioethanol, and is surrounded by an outer casing (4), wherein supply air flows in largely axially in the lower region of the outer casing via a plurality of guide elements (3) and is preferably set in helical rotation to form a swirling flame, according to the invention the outer casing (4) is placed over the guide elements (3). The outer casing (4) is preferably centered in an upright position by outer edges (3a) of the guide elements (3).
