A nozzle tip for a pulverized solid fuel pipe nozzle of a pulverized solid fuel-fired furnace is provided. The nozzle tip includes an inner nozzle portion and an outer nozzle portion that receives therein the inner nozzle portion. The outer nozzle portion has a lower supporting surface that is configured to support a lower surface of the inner nozzle portion. The outer nozzle portion also includes a plurality of ribs that define therebetween a plurality of flow passages for the passage of air. The ribs, in addition to define the airflow passages, provide bolstering support for the lower supporting surface. The outer nozzle portion is formed from stainless steel.

Process heaters and associated methods of processing with ultra-low pollutant emissions are provided. The process heaters and methods utilize a heat exchange tube having disposed therein a radiant permeable matrix burner at a first end of the tube. The tube further includes a thermally insulated insert disposed adjacent the radiant burner opposite an oxidant-fuel mixer that feeds the burner. The process heaters and methods act to reduce emissions of CO and NOx.

A powder coated aluminum barbecue pit burner that burns gas in the same way that stainless steel burner tubes do, but last longer and do not rust. The use of powder coated aluminum makes the burner according to the present invention corrosion resistant. Additionally, the powder coated aluminum burner of the present invention also contain a heat sink element that prevents the temperature of the tubes from getting too high. Controlling temperature and using powder coated aluminum burners, instead of stainless steel, ensures that the burner will last longer. Another embodiment utilizes a water cooled system in connection with the heat sink element.

A collapsible camp stove having a cover, a chassis having a fuel burner and a pot support; and the pot support and the chassis and the cover are all pivotally interconnected to one another in a parallelogram structure wherein pivotal opening of the cover relative to the chassis causes the pot support to raise upwardly away from a top surface of the chassis while the pot support continuously remains parallel to the top surface of the chassis.

A rich-lean combustion apparatus includes a first plate and a second plate provided to face each other to allow a rich mixture to flow therebetween through a rich mixture passage, a third plate provided to allow a lean mixture to flow through a lean mixture passage formed between the second plate and the third plate, a first burner port member for combusting the rich mixture, and a second burner port member for combusting the lean mixture, wherein, between the first plate and the second plate, a mixture inlet into which some of air supplied from a ventilator and a fuel gas injected from a nozzle are introduced, a mixture passage introduction portion and a mixture passage diffuser for allowing the rich mixture flowed into through the mixture inlet to flow to the rich mixture passage, an air inlet into which the remaining of the air supplied from the ventilator is introduced, and an air passage introduction portion through which the air flowed into through the air inlet flows are formed, and wherein a plurality of air through-holes are formed to pass through the second plate to allow the air of the air passage introduction portion to be spouted into an air passage formed between the second plate and the third plate, and a plurality of distribution holes are formed to pass through the second plate to allow some of a mixture passing the mixture passage diffuser to be spouted into the lean mixture passage.

Methods and devices for gas mixture combustion on a surface of a permeable matrix are provided which produce or result in surface stabilized combustion (SSC) with increasing amounts of radiation energy emitted by the matrix surface and decreasing concentrations of pollutant components in the combustion products. The gas mixture is fed to a burner that includes a permeable matrix material having a first thermal conductivity and configured to preheat the combustible gas mixture as it travels through the matrix. The burner includes a plurality of thermal elements having a thermal conductivity higher than and disposed in thermal transfer communication with the matrix base material. The permeable matrix base material forms a combustion surface with at least a portion of the thermal elements exposed above the combustion surface. The gas mixture is combusted at or near exit pores and channels formed at the permeable matrix material combustion surface.

A thimble shaped burner is made of a porous foam metal material and is adapted to be mounted on the interior of a plenum chamber receiving a fuel/air mixture under pressure. The fuel/air mixture infuses into the interior of the thimble shaped burner body and exits from it through a burner port in a support structure where the fuel/air mixture that has been infused through the burner body is ignited. The burners are typically used in multiples and are mounted by means conventional fasteners passing through reinforced mounting flanges on the interior of an air fuel plenum chamber. Flame lift off is reduced or eliminated by particular configurations and dimensions of annular metal washers that are used in association with the burner bodies for mounting purposes.

Provided are a burner and a water heater. The burner comprises multiple flame splitters, and each of the flame splitters is provided with at least three ejector pipes, and the multiple flame splitters are arranged parallel to one another; a fastener penetrates through the multiple flame splitters and connects the multiple flame splitters into a flame row; and compressing members are arranged at end parts where the fastener extends relative to the flame row, and the compressing members compress the flame row. The burner is integrally installed, easy to operate and firmly fixed, the combustion intensity can also be increased, the emission of nitrogen oxides is reduced, and the safety of use is ensured.

At least a part of a burner for a catalytic reactor is coated with a silicate based nickel aluminide slurry diffusion coating.

A method of forming a gas burner membrane. The method comprises forming a plurality of holes in a sheet of material. The holes are formed by laser cutting a required pattern of holes in the sheet of material.
