Apparatus for igniting a main gas mixture to be burnt in a combustion chamber includes conduit systems for separately feeding an oxygen-bearing gas and a combustible gas into an ignition region. At least a part of at least one of the conduit systems is formed as an electrical heating resistance thereby to raise the temperature of the gas component flowing therein so that when the components are mixed in the ignition region, ignition of the ignition gas mixture will occur, thereby igniting the main gas mixture. The apparatus also includes means for detecting the temperature of the heated gas component or components flowing through the conduit systems, and/or the temperature of the gas mixture ignited in the ignition region. |
