  • Patent number: 10036571
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a burner assembly. The burner assembly can comprise a tube that introduces a combustible fuel into a burner chamber, through an opening in a solid back wall plate. The burner chamber can be defined by the solid back wall plate, a solid front wall plate, and a side wall, where the side wall can comprise a mesh layer and/or a ridged porous layer. The fuel can be expelled from pores disposed in the side wall to the outer periphery of the burner's side wall in a substantially uniform manner, where combustion of the fuel can produce a relatively uniform, omni-directional flame at the outer surface of the burner's side wall.
