  2. Meker–Fisher burner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meker–Fisher_burner

    The Méker burner heating power can be around 3.6 kW using liquefied petroleum gas. [2] Flame temperatures of up to 1,100–1,200 °C (2,000–2,200 °F) are achievable. Compared with a Bunsen burner, the lower part of its tube has more openings with larger total cross-section, admitting more air and facilitating better mixing of air and ...

    Propane burner with a Bunsen flame Oxy-Acetylene for cutting through steel rails Flame of a gas and oil, in a dual burner. A gas burner is a device that produces a non-controlled flame by mixing a fuel gas such as acetylene, natural gas, or propane with an oxidizer such as the ambient air or supplied oxygen, and allowing for ignition and ...

  5. Industrial furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_furnace

    Furnace burner. The burner in the vertical, cylindrical furnace as above, is located in the floor and fires upward. Some furnaces have side fired burners, such as in train locomotives. The burner tile is made of high temperature refractory and is where the flame is contained. Air registers located below the burner and at the outlet of the air ...

  6. Pulverized coal-fired boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulverized_coal-fired_boiler

    The powdered coal from the pulverizer is directly blown to a burner in the boiler. The burner mixes the powdered coal in the air suspension with additional pre-heated combustion air and forces it out of a nozzle similar in action to fuel being atomized by a fuel injector in an internal combustion engine. Under operating conditions, there is ...

  7. Fuel viscosity control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_viscosity_control

    Fuel viscosity control is a technique to control viscosity and temperature of fuel oil (FO) for efficient combustion in diesel engines of motor vessels and generators of oil-fired power plants.

  8. Bunsen burner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunsen_burner

    The Teclu burner provides better mixing of air and fuel and can achieve higher flame temperatures than the Bunsen burner. [9] [10] Meker burner – The lower part of its tube has more openings with larger total cross-section, admitting more air and facilitating better mixing of air and gas. The tube is wider and its top is covered with a wire grid.

  9. Burn rate (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burn_rate_(chemistry)

    Burn rate (typically expressed in mm/s or in/s) is the sample length over time at a given pressure and temperature. For solid fuel propellant, the most common method of measuring burn rate is the Crawford Type Strand Burning Rate Bomb System [3] (also known as the Crawford Burner or Strand Burner), as described in MIL-STD-286C.
