A universally applicable regulation function is provided for a gas-operated heating device with more than one burner. The function facilitates start-up, regulation, and deactivation processes. A first valve and a second valve are connected together in a gas-tight manner. The first valve has an ignition lock which closes the main gas flow in the event of an ignition, a thermoelectric ignition fuse, a thermostat, and optionally an integrated pressure regulator. The start-up of the first valve allows the activation and deactivation of the gas flow. The first valve has two gas outlets, a first outlet for connecting the second valve, wherein the first outlet is located downstream of the ignition fuse and the optional pressure regulator and upstream of the thermostat, and a second outlet downstream of the thermostat, the second outlet leading to a first burner. The second valve is a thermostat. The first outlet of the first valve is connected to the inlet of the second valve, and the outlet of the second valve is connected to a second burner.

A burner assembly for a combustor includes: a plurality of first nozzles arranged in a circumferential direction of the combustor; a plurality of first burner cylinders accommodating the respective first nozzles; and a middle-flow-passage forming portion which is connected to a downstream end of the plurality of first burner cylinders and which forms a middle flow passage through which a combustion chamber of the combustor is in communication with an interior space of each of the plurality of first burner cylinders. The middle-flow-passage forming portion includes an inner peripheral wall disposed on a radially inner side of the combustor and formed such that a distance from a center axis of the combustor to the inner peripheral wall is uneven with respect to the circumferential direction.

Horizontal immersion tube boilers include a plurality of burner nozzles positioned in substantial alignment with a respective plurality of boiler tubes. Fuel-air mixture directed through the burner nozzles are ignited by a pilot flame system positioned proximate to the burner nozzles within a combustion chamber. The burner nozzles and pilot flame system receive air from a secondary air manifold having inlets that provide secondary air into the combustion chamber. The flames extending from the burner nozzles are directed into the respective boiler tubes, which exchange heat from the flame into water within a boiler shell. The secondary air inlets direct air around the burner nozzles and toward the boiler tubes, creating an air blanket around each burner nozzle for reducing turbulence and guide the flames into their respective boiler tubes. An improved flame arrestor within the nozzle prevents flame back-flow when modulating to lower firing rates.

Example furnaces and methods related thereto are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, the furnace includes a burner box including at least one burner configured to combust a fuel/air mixture. In addition, the furnace includes a first blower including an inlet nozzle having an air inlet and fuel inlet. The inlet nozzle is configured such that operation of the first blower is to pull air and fuel into the inlet nozzle to produce the fuel/air mixture at a fuel/air ratio that is configured to produce flue products having less than 14 Nano-grams per Joule of nitrogen oxides when combusted. Operation of the first blower is configured to push the fuel/air mixture into the burner box. Further, the furnace includes a heat exchanger assembly fluidly coupled to the burner box through a vestibule, and a second blower configured to pull the flue products through the heat exchanger assembly.

A burner for combusting low pressure gas includes: an outer wall configured as a venturi including a lower end, a mid throat section, and an upper end, the lower end being bell shaped and the upper end further including an upper end inner diameter; and a nozzle configured to receive and deliver a low-pressure gas stream, the nozzle having an opening into the lower end.
