Submerged combustion burners having a burner body and a burner tip connected thereto. The burner body has an external conduit and first and second internal conduits substantially concentric therewith, forming first and second annuli for passing a cooling fluid therethrough. A burner tip body is connected to the burner body at ends of the external and second internal conduits. The burner tip includes a generally central flow passage for a combustible mixture, the flow passage defined by an inner wall of the burner tip. The burner tip further has an outer wall and a crown connecting the inner and outer walls. The inner and outer walls, and the crown are comprised of same or different materials having greater corrosion and/or fatigue resistance than at least the external burner conduit.

A gas manifold assembly for delivering fuel from a fuel source to a burner assembly includes a gas manifold tube configured to deliver fuel from the fuel source and a stub tube mounted to and arranged in fluid communication with the burner assembly. An end of the gas manifold tube is connectable to the stub tube to form a slip joint.

An apparatus may comprise a first carrier tube having a first input end and a first output end and a second carrier tube disposed substantially parallel to the first carrier tube and having a second input end and a second output end. A cross tube may be coupled to the first carrier tube and the second carrier tube and may be disposed substantially perpendicularly between the carrier tubes. A plurality of burner holes may be disposed along the first carrier tube, the second carrier tube, and the cross tube. A plurality of flame sensors may be disposed at various locations of the first carrier tube and the second carrier tube. A first igniter assembly may further be coupled to the first carrier tube.

Submerged combustion burners having improved fuel and oxidant mixing characteristics. Submerged combustion melters including the burners. Methods of using submerged combustion melters to melt glass-forming materials and produce molten glass.

The present disclosure is directed to a tankless water heater and systems and methods of using the same. The tankless water heater embodiments of the present disclosure can be configured to have a plurality of independently operable heat exchangers that can be used individually or collectively, in any combination, to heat water based on the level of demand for hot water. Embodiments can be configured for randomly selecting which heat exchangers are used to heat the incoming water. Embodiments of the present disclosure can also be configured to flow water through heat exchangers that are not being used to heat water and direct such water to a recirculation loop.

Method for operating a gas burner appliance (10). During burner-on-phases a gas/air mixture having a defined mixing ratio of gas and air is provided to a burner chamber (11). Said gas/air mixture is provided by a mixing device (23) mixing an air flow with a gas flow. Said mixing device (23) has at least two Venturi nozzles being connected in parallel. Said air flow is provided by a fan (14) in such a way that the fan speed of the fan (14) depends on a desired burner load. The fan speed range of the fan (14) defines a modulation range of the gas burner appliance (10). Said defined mixing ratio of gas and air of the gas/air mixture is controlled over the modulation range of the gas burner appliance (10) by a gas regulating valve (18). Said gas regulating valve (18) has a pneumatic controller (24) controlling the mixing ratio of gas and air on basis of a pressure difference between the gas pressure of the gas flow in the gas pipe (16) and a reference pressure. During burner-on-phases the combustion quality is monitored on basis of a signal provided by a combustion quality sensor. The defined mixing ratio of gas and air of the gas/air mixture can be calibrated during on basis of the signal provided by the combustion quality sensor, namely by adjusting during calibration a position of a throttle (17). The calibration of the gas/air mixture is performed in such a way that for calibration at least one of the Venturi nozzles (28) of the mixing device (23) is closed while at least one of the Venturi nozzles (28) of the mixing device (23) is opened.

In a combustion apparatus provided with: a combustion box having a connection flange part for connecting a heat exchanger to an upper end of the combustion box; a partition plate disposed inside the combustion box for partitioning space inside the combustion box into a combustion chamber and an air supply chamber which lies under the combustion chamber; and a plurality of laterally arrayed burners which are elongated longitudinally, the internal volume of the combustion box is increased without increasing a height dimension or without enlarging the connection flange part, thereby restraining the occurrence of resonance sounds. A drawn part projecting laterally outward of the combustion box is provided in such a portion of each side-plate part as is above the partition plate, over a predetermined range in the vertical and longitudinal directions. An upper side of the drawn part is preferably positioned below the upper end of the burners, and is preferably parallel with the upper end of the burners.

A burner case and a burner device provided with the burner case are disclosed. A cover for closing an opening of a case body of the burner case is attached to the case body by a first caulking portion and a second caulking portion. A first caulking direction and a second caulking direction intersect with each other, the first caulking direction is a direction in which a first attachment piece and a first facing portion, those constituting the first caulking portion, face each other and are caulked, the second caulking direction is a direction in which a second attachment piece and a second facing portion, those constituting the second caulking portion, face each other and are caulked. Thus, the case body and the cover are not required to be screwed or the number of the screws is reduced, and leakage of gas from the burner case to outside is prevented.

Example dual-burner assemblies for cookboxes of gas grills are disclosed. An example dual-burner assembly includes a first burner tube and a second burner tube. The first burner tube has a first maximum heat output. The second burner tube has a second maximum heat output. The second burner tube is spaced apart from the first burner tube by a distance of no more than 0.750 inches. The second maximum heat output is less than the first maximum heat output.
