Combustion systems with ease of serviceability

The disclosed technology includes a combustion system providing ease of access to components of the combustion system and optimal placement of a burner such that efficient combustion and heat transfer can occur. The combustion system can include an inner tube having a first end and a second end, the second end having a flange with a sensor port, and an outer tube having a first end and a second end. The inner tube can be disposed within the outer tube. The inner tube can have an outer diameter less than an inner diameter of the outer tube, creating a gap between the outer tube and inner tube. An ignitor assembly and a flame sensor assembly can extend through the sensor port and the gap and be positioned proximate a burner.

A gas furnace according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a mixer for mixing air and a fuel gas, which are introduced through an intake pipe and a manifold, respectively, to form a mixture; a mixing pipe through which the mixture, having passed through the mixer, flows; a burner assembly for producing a combustion gas by burning the mixture having passed through the mixing pipe; a heat exchanger through which the combustion gas flows; an exhaust pipe through which an exhaust gas, as the combustion gas having passed through the heat exchanger, is discharged outside of the gas furnace; and an inducer for inducing a flow of a fluid through the intake pipe, the mixer, the mixing pipe, the burner assembly, the heat exchanger, and the exhaust pipe. In this case, the mixer has a front end connected to the intake pipe, a rear end connected to the mixing pipe, and a side surface connected to the manifold.

COMBUSTION APPARATUS
20210207803 · 2021-07-08 · ·

An air blowing fan supplies an amount of air corresponding to a fan rotation speed to a burner during operation. A check valve has a biasing force that closes an exhaust vent, and is opened and closed in accordance with a relationship between a gas pressure in an exhaust passage and the biasing force. A controller performs a failure diagnosis for detecting an open failure of the check valve when a phenomenon in which the gas pressure is lower than a predetermined normal pressure range is detected in a case where the fan rotation speed is within a predetermined diagnosis rotation speed region. The diagnosis rotation speed region is set within a rotation speed range in which a degree of opening of the check valve changes with an increase in the fan rotation speed when the check valve is normally opened and closed.

BURNING APPARATUS FOR RAILWAY REPAIR

SMOKE TUBE BOILER

The present invention relates to a smoke tube boiler including: a mix chamber which includes a mixing space in which combustion gas and air are mixed, a mix chamber body having a flat shape, and a flat plate-shaped burner disposed in a horizontal direction above a combustion chamber; and a heat exchanger which includes an outer shell forming an outer wall of a water tank into and from which a heat medium is introduced and discharged and which accommodates the heat medium, an upper tube plate having an end plate structure that is coupled to the outer shell and configured to form the combustion chamber, a plurality of tubes formed in a flat shape that are configured to allow combustion gas generated in the combustion chamber to flow therein and cause a heat exchange to occur between the combustion gas and the heat medium flowing outside the tubes, turbulators coupled to an inner side of the tube and configured to induce occurrence of a turbulent flow in the flow of the combustion gas, multi-stage barriers disposed between the outer shell and the tube and configured to induce a heat medium flow direction to be alternately changed between a radially inward direction and a radially outward direction, and a lower tube plate having an end plate structure that is configured to support a lower end portion of the tube.

Boosted gas burner assembly and a method of operating the same

A gas burner assembly for a cooktop appliance and a method for operating the same are provided. The gas burner assembly includes a normally aspirated primary burner, a concentrically-positioned forced air boost burner, a boost valve for regulating a flow of boost fuel to the boost burner, and a forced air supply source for providing a flow of air to the boost burner. The method includes activating the boost burner upon receiving a command and starting a timer. After a predetermined amount of time has passed, e.g., such as ten minutes, the boost burner is extinguished by closing the boost valve to prevent unsafe operating conditions.
