Abstract
A radiant tube assembly includes a radiant tube having a burner leg with a burner therein, an exhaust leg and a connector leg. A recuperator is located inside the exhaust leg in a stream of products of combustion flowing through the exhaust leg. The recuperator has an air inlet port at the outer end and a mixing baffle at the inner end. The mixing baffle causes combustion air and products of combustion to be mixed at the inner end of the recuperator and the mixture is supplied to the burner for combustion.
