  • Patent number: 10302298
    Abstract: An evaporator burner arrangement (100) for a mobile heater operated with liquid fuel having: a mixture preparation region (2) for generating a fuel-air-mixture, a fuel evaporation surface (8) arranged in the mixture preparation region (2) for evaporating the liquid fuel, a combustion air supply (B) for supplying combustion air to the mixture preparation region (2), a fuel supply (1) for supplying liquid fuel to the fuel evaporation surface (8), a conversion region (3) being arranged fluidically downstream of the mixture preparation region (2) for converting the fuel-air mixture in order to release heat, and a heat conductor body (7) extending spaced from a sidewall (25) of the mixture preparation region (2) through the mixture preparation region (2) to the conversion region (3) for feeding-back heat from the conversion region (3) to the mixture preparation region (2) by thermal conductance

  • Publication number: 20090220901
    Abstract: A burner for a heater, especially for motor vehicles, has an essentially axially symmetrical combustion chamber, a burner nozzle for supply and atomization of fuel, a fuel needle for supplying fuel to the combustion chamber, a combustion air supply for supplying combustion air to the combustion chamber, a starting zone in which ignition of the fuel to start the burner takes place, a heat shield between the burner nozzle and the combustion chamber, the heat shield having openings for supplying secondary air to the combustion chamber, and a baffle plate located in the combustion chamber. By choosing the inside diameter of the fuel needle, the exit speed of the fuel is predetermined such that, during the starting phase of the burner; fuel in essentially unatomized form reaches the starting zone. The openings have air guide elements, and the baffle plate has a defined curvature in the axial direction.

  • Publication number: 20090220902
    Abstract: A burner (10) for a heater, especially for use in motor vehicles, with an essentially axially symmetrical combustion chamber (22) and a baffle plate (36) which is located in the combustion chamber. The baffle plate (36) has a defined curvature in an axial direction and that there is a curvature in the direction of the burnout zone (32). An outer periphery of the baffle plate defines a plane and a maximum axial distance of the baffle plate from this plane Dm and the diameter of the baffle plate Bd have dimensions that have a ratio Dm:Bd relative to each other that is between 0.07 and 0.21.
