Smart fuel burning system and method of operating same

A system configured to generate heat when supplied with a first fuel or a second fuel can include a fuel supply line operatively connected to a fuel source. A valve assembly can be operatively connected to the fuel supply line. A main burner can be operatively connected to the valve assembly. A thermoelectric generating system can be configured to transform heat to electricity. A first pilot burner can include at least one of a first thermocouple and a first Fe-ion sensor. A second pilot burner can include at least one of a second thermocouple and a second Fe-ion sensor. A printed circuit board (PCB) can be operatively connected to the valve assembly and the first and second pilot burners. The PCB can be configured to control operation of the valve assembly based on information received from at least one of the first and second pilot burners.

BURNER AND PROCESS FOR BURNING A HYDROGEN-CONTAINING FUEL
20240151393 · 2024-05-09 · ·

A burner for burning a hydrogen-containing fuel is equipped with a burner unit which comprises a fuel feed and a feed for a primary oxidant (oxygen) and which is accommodated in a feed for a secondary oxidant (air). A swirl device whose relative position with respect to the burner unit can be altered is provided in the feed for the secondary oxidant. The relative position of the burner unit and the swirl device may be controlled according to a composition of the fuel, in particular according to the water content thereof and the ratio of primary and secondary oxidant. The burner allows flexible adaptation of the burning to fuels of different composition, even during ongoing operation.

DUAL FUEL SELECTABLE APPARATUS
20190137097 · 2019-05-09 ·

A heater assembly can be used with a gas appliance. The gas appliance can be a dual fuel appliance for use with one of a first fuel type or a second fuel type different than the first. The heater assembly can include a pressure sensor and a plurality of valves operable by a control module dependent upon a detected fuel pressure. The valves may be solenoid valves that can reduce the available fuel delivery paths to limit fuel delivery to a burner when a higher pressure, such as detection of LP gas, is detected.
