ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a novel heat recouperator for returning an incident beam of radiative energy to its source, the beam being incident from any direction within a predetermined solid angle. The recouperator comprises a main array of radiant heat reflecting cells, each comprising a substrate defining at least three planar surfaces intersecting each other in angles of approximately 90°, each of the planar surfaces being in the form of a geometric figure having at least four edges, front substrate surfaces facing the solid angle being reflective of a major fraction of incident electro- magnetic radiation in the wavelength band of about 1 micron to about 20 microns, the incident beam of radiation has direction cosines (a,b,c) in the coordinate system oriented with the intersections of the planar surfaces. The recouperator further includes at least one secondary array of the reflecting cells, the secondary array positioned with respect to the main array at a direction defined by a set of direction cosines chosen from the following group: -a, b, c; -a, -b, c; a, -b, c; a, -b, -c; a, b, -c; -a, b, -c. The recouperator is particularly useful for the recovery of heat and is most effective in returning radiant energy which is emitted from a source back to the source. The device is relatively inexpensive to manufacture and easy to install and maintain.
