Abstract
An infrared radiation source is provided by directing combustion gases through a honeycomb mantle along the axis of symmetry thereof. The honeycomb mantle is formed of individual tubes disposed at an angle to the axis of symmetry of the mantle and is closed at the end away from the combustion gas input. The mantle may contain a structure to divert the combustion gases therein to aid in uniform heating.
