  • Patent number: 4781575
    Abstract: A compensator for a pressure operated fuel regulator comprises a housing having an opening for bleeding air therethrough. There is a tapered plug in the opening fastened to a thermostatic metal within the housing. When the thermostatic metal is heated by incoming air, the clearance around the plug in the opening increases, and the amount of air bleeding out of the opening increases.

  • Patent number: 4631022
    Abstract: A temperature compensator for a pressure operated fuel regulator is used in combination with a heat recuperator to regulate fuel flow. In the recuperator, air to be used for combustion of the fuel is heated. Some of the heated air is supplied to the compensator, which comprises a housing having an opening for bleeding air therethrough. The rate of bleeding through of the air, and consequently the pressure drop across the compensator, is dependent on the temperature of the air supplied to the compensator.
