Abstract

This new design of burner achieves improved fuel combustion by combining (i) a primary diffusion-flame from a wick with (ii) a secondary premixed-flame. The latter occurs as a result of fuel being vaporized by radiant heat from the diffusion flame and that vapour being mixed by convection with air entrained through an orifice. The efficiency of the diffusion-flame combustion is improved because the entrained air is introduced near the centre of the annular flame, so increasing the air/flame interface available for combustion.
