Abstract

The invention relates to a device for thermally processing a conveyed quasi-continuous workpiece, in particular a flat body, having a conveying device for transporting the workpiece in a conveying direction, an NIR radiant heater for heating a surface of the workpiece by means of radiation, the substantially effective portion thereof being in the range of near infrared and the power density thereof on the surface being greater than 100 kW/m2, a liquid cooling device downstream of the NIR radiant heater in the conveying direction for applying a cooling liquid to the surface, and a cooling liquid discharge device for removing the cooling liquid from the surface, wherein the cooling liquid discharge device comprises a gas jet device for applying a pressurized gas to the entire surface covered by cooling liquid for blowing off the cooling liquid from the surface.

Abstract

The invention relates to a highly reflective lining element for lining the wall of a thermal irradiation arrangement comprising at least one high power radiation source for radiation in the visible range and/or the infrared range and/or the UV range. The lining element has a reflective first surface and a heat-emitting second surface, and comprises a solid carrier which has a high heat capacity and is provided with fixing means for detachable fixing to a lining element carrier structure of the irradiation arrangement.
