Abstract
1470869 Adding water to improve combustion F A WENTWORTH 20 Dec 1974 [2 Jan 1974] 55239/74 Heading F4B Water vapour is added to the combustible mixture fed to a combustion apparatus having a forced air supply by bubbling air through water in a container having a layer of immiscible oil floating on it, and feeding it to the burner. In a combustion apparatus having a centrifugal air fan 10, a connection 36 from one side of the fan is submerged a small distance in water in a container 30, and a connection 38 from above the water leads to the other side of the fan to mingle with main body of combustion air. The water in the container may be maintained automatically at a suitable level.
