A drying cylinder (10) comprises a cylindrical shell (12) with head members (14,16) at either end and is mounted for rotation about its central longitudinal axis. A gas fired burner assembly (24) is mounted in the interior of the cylinder and comprises a plurality of burner segments (28) which transmit heat to the shell (12) by infrared radiation. The heat output of the burner segments (28) are controllable as an assembly in unison or individually. <IMAGE> |
