Summary: | APR 6 1993 AVR Burner for wood logs Summary The burner is intended for combustion of wood logs or other similar solid fuels. The burner which will be called the basket burner is shaped as an open inclined basket (1) comprising a bottom plate (3) and a backing plate (4) which are inclined towards the horizontal plane, respectively the vertical plane, so that the connection between the bottom plate and the backing plate constitutes the lowest part of the basket. The backing plate forms a chute or hold for the package of wood logs. The two plates contain holes for air The fuel is piled up against the backing plate and is supported by the bottom plate so as to form a compact bundle of parallel wood logs with minimized surface/volume ratio. The design of the basket burner makes the wood logs serve as efficient supporting burners for each other. Thanks to the shape of the basket burner the burning wood logs are successively brought towards each other and towards the lowest part of the basket burner during the combustion. At the end of the combustion there remains an upright layer of burning char which radiates heat towards the space in front of the fireplace which facilitates rapid lighting of a new charge of wood. |
