A system includes a flow inlet conduit. A primary conduit branches from the flow inlet conduit for delivering flow to a set of primary nozzles. An equalization bypass valve (EBV) connects between the flow inlet conduit and a secondary conduit for delivering flow to a set of secondary nozzles. The EBV is connected to be controlled to apportion flow from the flow inlet conduit to the secondary conduit. A regulator valve is connected to be controlled by a pressure differential between pressure in the flow inlet conduit (PIN) and pressure in the secondary conduit (PSEC) to apportion flow from an inlet of the regulator valve to the flow inlet conduit.

An innovative oxyhydrogen (HHO) burner system including one or more burner systems is provided to eliminate emissions through total combustion. Each burner system includes at least one HHO gas supply and an external natural gas supply, both of which are connected to a gas mixer. A controller regulates the amounts of incoming HHO gas and the natural gas through being mixed. The mixed gas is supplied to each burner assembly with a predetermined pressure and flowrate to generate a flame for the total combustion of the exhaust stream inside the exhaust pipe. With feedback from an exhaust measuring system inside the exhaust pipe adjacent the outlet, the controller can adjust the burner system for optimal operations and achieve total combustion. Thus, by passing the exhaust or gases through a substantial cross-section covered by each flame, emissions can be greatly reduced or eliminated.

A gas manifold allows each distribution chamber to be fed with fuel gas at an appropriate flow rate irrespective of an increase in the number of distribution chambers included in the gas manifold. Fuel gas flowing through in an inlet is distributed to a plurality of distribution chambers through a main channel. A bypass channel parallel with the main channel also feeds fuel gas to a maximum distribution chamber. This can prevent the feeding of the fuel gas to the maximum distribution chamber from being affected by and reduced by the feeding of the fuel gas to the bypassed distribution chambers. This also prevent the feeding of the fuel gas to the other distribution chambers from being affected by and reduced by the feeding of the fuel gas to the maximum distribution chamber. The plurality of distribution chambers are thus fed with fuel gas at appropriate flow rates.

The invention relates to a system for treating hydrogen and/or oxygen gas produced by water electrolysis and serving to supply a combustion process, characterised in that it comprises at least one heat exchanger, in which the one or more gases circulate so as to be cooled or heated, said heat exchanger being submerged in a reactive compound through which the one or more gasses pass in turn.

The present invention is a system that utilizes high pressure gas (greater than ½ psig) to control flow rate and gas discharge velocity to enable interchangeability between a plurality of gases without having to change the gas/air mixing venturi size or air opening. A new approach is to use the available incoming higher gas pressure to the appliance then control the volumetric flow rate with the first orifice and then use a second orifice to change the velocity of discharge into the gas/air mixing venturi of the burner and therefore have adjustability of gas air mixing conditions without having to change the burner system or air flow control even when changing between very different fuel gases.

A charging system for charging a reactor with air used energy produced by the reactor and includes a vessel having a hollow interior cavity partially filled with a liquid slug, a first air pocket within the cavity on a first side of the liquid slug, and a second air pocket within the cavity on a second side of the liquid slug. The liquid slug forms a water trap seal in the cavity between the two pockets and moves within the vessel in a cycle in which gas is loaded into the first air pocket in a first stroke and gas in the first air pocket is compressed in a second stroke. Movement of the liquid slug during the second stroke is caused by an increasing pressure in the second air pocket due to introduction of high-pressure gas from the reactor into the second air pocket.

A burner includes a distal flame holder, first and second fuel nozzles, a fuel and oxidant source, and a mixing tube disposed upstream from the distal flame holder. Fuel emitted from the first fuel nozzle mixes with oxidant from the oxidant source to form a fuel and oxidant mixture to support combustion in the distal flame holder. A non-reactive fluid source such as recirculated flue gas provides a non-reactive fluid for dilution of the fuel and oxidant mixture to prevent flashback.

A cooktop appliance includes a first burner and a second burner which are spaced apart with a grate positioned above the burners. The grate includes a first sensor finger with a first temperature sensor over the first burner and a second sensor finger with a second temperature sensor over the second burner. The cooktop appliance also includes a first control valve and a second control valve which selectively direct fuel to the respective burners. A controller of the cooktop appliance is operably coupled to the temperature sensors and the control valves. The controller may be operable for and/or methods of operating the cooktop appliance may include receiving a set temperature, receiving a first temperature measurement from the first temperature sensor and a second temperature measurement from the second temperature sensor, and adjusting each control valve based on the set temperature and the corresponding temperature measurement.

A method of operating a multi-ring gas burner includes sending a spark to a first ring of the multi-ring burner. After sending the spark to the first ring, the method determines a flame status of the first ring and adjusts a position of an electronic gas valve connected to a second ring of the multi-ring gas burner based on the determined flame status of the first ring.
