A finely distributed combustion system for a gas turbine engine is provided. A combustor body may extend along a longitudinal axis. A premixer space may be formed within the combustor body to premix air and fuel. The premixer space is in communication with an array of finely distributed perforations arranged in a wall of the combustor body to eject an array of premixed main flamelets throughout a contour of the combustor body between the upstream base of the combustor body and the downstream base of the combustor body. The array of finely distributed perforations—potentially comprising thousands or even hundreds of thousands of perforations spatially distributed on a miniaturized scale—for ejecting the premixed main flamelets is technically advantageous compared to conventional distributed combustion systems, where injection of relatively longer main flames occurs just at a few discrete axial locations.

A high intensity gas-fired infrared emitter including a frame having a plurality of side walls, an open bottom, and an open top, a flame arrestor mounted inside the frame and including a bottom, a top surface having a recess, and a plurality of apertures extending from the bottom to the recessed top surface, and a cellular surface panel formed of a plurality of cells and mounted inside the recess of the flame arrestor such that the plurality of apertures of the flame arrestor form pathways which extend into the cellular surface panel.

A combustor includes a plurality of fuel nozzles installed so as to be extended in a direction of a nozzle axis and configured to inject fuel toward one side in the direction of the nozzle axis, a pipe plate having a plurality of air holes formed therein so as to be extended in the direction of the nozzle axis, in which the air hole has an inner diameter larger than a tip end portion of the fuel nozzle and the tip end portions are respectively inserted into the air holes, and a step surface formed at a position of the tip end portion closer to the other side in the direction of the nozzle axis than a tip end surface of the tip end portion so as to be expanded in a radial direction with respect to the nozzle axis from a tip end outer peripheral surface.

Disclosed are an anti-backflow premixing device and a fuel gas water heater, where the anti-backflow premixing device includes a casing body, a premixing cavity is provided in the casing body, and the premixing cavity includes a gas outlet pathway; a baffle, the baffle is connected in the casing body, the baffle has a first position and a second position, the baffle can continuously move between the first position and the second position, the baffle obstructs the gas outlet pathway of the premixing cavity when at the first position, and the gas outlet pathway gradually opens when the baffle is moved from the first position to the second position; and a fuel gas passage, the fuel gas passage and the premixing cavity being in communication.

A system for use with a fired vessel of production/separators or dehydration equipment that includes a metal box, a main burner, a pilot burner, and a flame arrestor. The main burner and the pilot burner extend through the metal box and the first flame arrestor is connected to the metal box.

[Problems] A flat burner elongated in the longitudinal direction has, at an upper end thereof, a main burner port (63) and a flame retention port (64) positioned at least on laterally one side of the main burner port (63). The flat burner uses hydrogen-containing fuel as a fuel. Flash back is prevented at the flame retention port in which the gas ejection speed becomes relatively small. [Solving Means] A lean fuel-air mixture which is leaner in fuel concentration than a theoretical fuel-air ratio is ejected from the main burner port (63) and a gas containing only fuel is ejected from the flame retention port (64). In addition, the height, on the side of the main burner port (63), of the upper end of the flame retention port (64), is made lower than the height of the upper end of the main burner port (63).

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.

A control gas ball valve for high pressure gas cooking appliances provides a linear surface slot along its rotation direction. When turned by a control knob and enters a gas inlet, the said surface slot is able to channel gas input to a hole that connects said surface slot to the center of the valve ball. The gas in the center of the valve ball is directed away to a burner for cooking purposes. The said linear surface slot is able to provide constant flowrate slope for continuously variable power adjustment and a maximum power plateau. These are the most desirable features in residential cooking.
