<p>The apparatus includes a rotary mixing valve (8) producing a mixture of fuel gas (2) and air (10) in any one of a plurality of different ratios, a burner (222) producing a combustion of the mixture, a sensor (24) sensing the combustion products to provide an output signal on line (25) representative of the state of combustion, and a controller (28) operable in response to the output signal to control the valve (8) to obtain a first substantially stoichiometric combustion and a second substantially stoichiometric combustion upon the introduction of additional air to the mixture, the calorific content of the fuel gas being determined from the measured control of the first and second combustions. </p> |
