A burner includes a first tube portion formed with an ejection port; a second tube portion that extends in the first tube portion toward the ejection port and to which gaseous mixture flows in from a side opposite to the ejection port; a third tube portion arranged in the first tube portion and including an open end positioned on the ejection port side; a closing portion that closes the open end; a coupling wall portion that closes a gap between the first tube portion and the second tube portion; a partition wall that is coupled to the first tube portion and the third tube portion, the partition wall being formed with a communication path; and an igniting portion that is arranged on the ejection port side with respect to the partition wall.

A forehearth system includes a superstructure including refractory bricks that frame a molten glass tank, with a burner block including a discharge throat that extends its distal end formed from a refractory material that is within the superstructure above the molten glass tank. At least one oxygen fuel forehearth burner is within the burner block including a burner body, a fuel pipe within the burner body having a fuel inlet for receiving fuel and a fuel outlet, and an oxygen pipe within the burner body having an oxygen inlet for receiving oxygen and an oxygen outlet. The oxygen pipe is positioned coaxially outside the fuel pipe. The fuel outlet extends beyond the oxygen pipe and beyond the burner body so that the oxygen first reaching the fuel and thus a flame when operating is delayed until the discharge throat.

A vehicle heater includes a burner area, a circumferential wall providing a combustion chamber, a flame tube with a first end forming or adjacent to a part of the combustion chamber circumferential wall and a second flame tube end. A heat exchanger housing has a circumferential wall enclosing the flame tube. A waste gas backflow space is formed, between an outer side of the flame tube and an inner side of the heat exchanger housing circumferential wall, with an inlet area at the second flame tube end and with an outlet area in the area of the first flame tube end. An inner dimension of the circumferential wall increases in the direction from an inlet area of the waste gas backflow space to an outlet area. An outer dimension of the flame tube increases in the direction from the second flame tube end to the first flame tube end.

No new matter has been added. The invention relates to a device for heating a medium, comprising a burner unit and a flame tube, wherein the burner unit generates flue gas, wherein the flame tube has a flue gas inlet, a longitudinal axis, a casing extending along the longitudinal axis, and an end face opposite the flue gas inlet, wherein the flue gas passes from the burner unit into the flame tube via the flue gas inlet, wherein a plurality of recesses are located in the casing, and wherein the recesses have different dimensions and/or are distributed asymmetrically on the casing. The longitudinal axis is in a central plane, wherein a first side and a second side of the casing are formed by the central plane, and wherein recesses on the first side have smaller dimensions than recesses on the second side.

A torch heat shield attachment for a butane torch or similar device includes an outer mesh material that is wrapper around an inner aluminum cylinder. The outer mesh material forms an outer mesh cylinder spaced around an inner mesh cylinder via a plurality of fasteners that secure the mesh in its cylindrical shape while spacing the formed inner and outer mesh cylinders to form a gap therebetween. The fasteners are removable and rearrangeable to customize the appearance of the torch heat shield. The aluminum plate, the two mesh cylinders formed by the mesh material, and the gap formed between the two mesh cylinders help to shield a user of the torch from excess heat by dissipating the heat from the torch tip.

A coaxial fuel and oxygen pipe apparatus can include a fuel pipe and an oxygen pipe, wherein the fuel pipe is contained within the oxygen pipe and the oxygen pipe comprises an internal diameter that is continuous without diameter changes along a length of the oxygen pipe. The fuel pipe can include an internal diameter that is continuous without diameter variations along a length of the fuel pipe. A discharge block includes a diverging section and a discharge that forms a final outlet with respect to the fuel pipe and the oxygen pipe. The discharge block is configured with two angles that can facilitate conditions for eliminating recirculation, wherein the two angles are matched to an expansion rate of the products of combustion to maintain a positive pressure throughout a final discharge from the final outlet.

A vehicle heater includes a burner area includes a circumferential wall providing a combustion chamber, a flame tube with a first end forming or adjacent to a part of the combustion chamber circumferential wall and a second flame tube end. A heat exchanger housing has a circumferential wall enclosing the flame tube. A waste gas backflow space is formed, between an outer side of the flame tube and an inner side of the heat exchanger housing circumferential wall, with an inlet area at the second flame tube end and with an outlet area in the area of the first flame tube end. An inner dimension of the circumferential wall increases in the direction from an inlet area of the waste gas backflow space to an outlet area. An outer dimension of the flame tube increases in the direction from the second flame tube end to the first flame tube end.

A gas burner (1) according to one aspect of the present invention includes a fuel supply pipe (10) extending in a predetermined combustion air jet direction and supplied with fuel gas, an air jet port (40) arranged around the fuel supply pipe (10) and jetting combustion air in the combustion air jet direction, and multiple outflow nozzles (70) extending so as not to protrude outward from the fuel supply pipe (10) beyond the air jet port (40) and so as to form an acute inclination angle with respect to the combustion air jet direction and having tip ends forming fuel outlet ports (71) through which the fuel gas flows out.

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for burning gaseous ammonia, including receiving a oxidizer gas into a chamber body such that the oxidizer gas generally flows in direction that extends along a longitudinal axis of the chamber body; introducing gaseous ammonia into the chamber body such that swirl is introduced into the gaseous ammonia; mixing the oxidizer gas and the gaseous ammonia to form a combustion mixture; igniting the combustion mixture; and combusting the combustion mixture for a duration such that the gaseous ammonia is converted to combustion products.

A fuel combustion system comprises a discharge nozzle with concentric fuel and air orifices. A fuel conduit is coupled to each fuel orifice for supplying liquid fuel thereto. An air conduit is coupled to each air orifice for supplying air thereto. The fuel and the pressurized air only mixing with one another, upon being discharged from the respective fuel and air orifices, to form a fuel mixture. A supplemental air source supplies supplement air to facilitate combustion. An air deflector sleeve at least partially surrounds and accommodates the at least one discharge nozzle and a cylindrical blast tube surrounding the air deflector sleeve and an outlet end of the cylindrical blast tube supports a flame retention head. The flame retention head redirects the supplement air radially inward, through openings in the air deflector sleeve and the flame retention head, to assist with combustion of the fuel mixture.
