SELF-IGNITING BURNER AND METHOD OF USE, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE

摘要

A self-igniting burner includes a main tube containing a fuel tube (35) and an igniter tube (37). An ignition device (15A, 15B) extends down the igniter tube (37). Fuel flows from an upstream portion of the fuel tube (35) to the igniter tube (37) via a channel (51 ). The fuel flows down the igniter tube (37) and out the end. A pilot flame is ignited by the ignition device (15 A, 15B) from the fuel flowing out the end of the igniter tube (37). Oxidant flows down the main tube between an inner surface of the main tube and outer surfaces of the fuel tube (35) and igniter tube (37). A main burner flame is ignited from the flow of oxidant and a flow of fuel out of the fuel tube (35).
