Abstract

See full text

A boiler can have a combustion chamber, a burner, a heat exchanger in fluid communication with the combustion chamber, and a flue for removing a combustion product from the boiler. The burner has a protruding taper shape such as a cone or similar shape. The protruding taper shape of the burner distributes heat to the heat exchanger more evenly than a cylindrical shaped burner thereby reducing heat losses at the combustion chamber wall and increasing the thermal efficiency. The protruding taper shape of the burner also reduces noise associated with the operation of the burner.
