Abstract
A gas cooking system having a gas cooking burner that includes a gas line, a first gas port coupled to the gas line, and a second gas port disposed downstream from the first gas port, wherein at least one of the first and second gas ports comprises a non-circular geometry adapted to increase air entrainment, the second gas port further being non-rectangular if the first gas port has a circular geometry.
Description
- The invention relates generally to gas cooking systems and, more particularly, to gaseous fuel-air mixing techniques in a gas burner of gas cooking systems.
- Conventional gas cooking systems, such as those found in households, have one or more burners in which gas is mixed with air and burned at a cooktop. To improve combustion and reduce undesirable emissions, these gas burners often mix the gas with air in a primary air entrainment region and a secondary air entrainment region. The primary air entrainment region typically comprises a gas orifice that directs a gas stream into a venturi assembly, such that air is pulled into the gas stream in the space between and surrounding the gas orifice and the venturi assembly. In addition, a fan may blow the air into the gas stream to enhance the primary air entrainment. The resulting gas-air mixture subsequently flows to a plurality of burner ports, which exhaust the gas-air mixture to the cooktop for combustion. The secondary air entrainment region resides directly downstream of these burner ports, where additional air is pulled into the exhausted gas-air mixture. Thus, the primary and second air entrainment regions supplement one another to provide the overall entrainment of air into the gas supplied to the gas burners.
- Unfortunately, the existing techniques for primary and secondary air entrainment do not sufficiently entrain air into the gas stream, thereby leading to poor combustion and undesirable emissions. This limitation of existing air entrainment techniques is even more apparent for higher gas flow rates. As a result, the flames that burn the gas-air mixture from the gas ports can be characterized as relatively long flames, which may not satisfy the industry standards for fabric ignition at these higher gas flow rates. Accordingly, at the expense of heat output, existing gas cooking systems typically limit the maximum gas flow rate to meet industry standards for fabric ignition and emissions.
- Accordingly, it would be desirable to develop a gas cooking system that has enhanced burner performance achieved through improved air entrainment into the gas in the gas burner, while satisfying industry standards for emissions and fabric ignition.
- In accordance with certain embodiments, the present technique has a gas cooking system including a gas cooking burner that includes a gas line, a first gas port coupled to the gas line, and a second gas port disposed downstream from the first gas port, wherein at least one of the first and second gas ports comprises a non-circular geometry adapted to increase air entrainment, the second gas port further being non-rectangular if the first gas port has a circular geometry.
- In accordance with certain embodiments, the present technique has a method of operating a gas cooking burner. The method includes receiving a gas from a gas feed line, flowing the gas out through a first gas port for primary air entrainment and passing the gas into a venturi section. The method includes exhausting the gas through a second gas port for secondary air entrainment, wherein at least one of the first and second gas ports comprises a non-circular geometry, the second gas port further being non-rectangular if the first gas port has a circular geometry.
- In accordance with certain embodiments, the present technique has a method of manufacturing a gas cooking burner including, providing a venturi section, positioning a first gas port directing a gas stream into the venturi section, and disposing a second gas port downstream from the venturi section, wherein at least one of the first and second gas ports comprises a non-circular geometry, the second gas port further being non-rectangular if the first gas port has a circular geometry.

Specifically, the primaryair entrainment region 30 is located around and between thefirst gas port 20 and theventuri section 22. In this primaryair entrainment region 30, the abrupt ejection of gas from thefirst gas port 20 and theventuri section 22 functions to entrain air into the gas flow, thereby providing a preliminary gas-air mixture that collectively flows toward thesecond gas port 26 further downstream.

FIG. 13 illustrates anexemplary process 130 for operating a gas burner system having at least one non-circular gas port in accordance with embodiments of the present technique. Theprocess 130 begins with receiving a gas from a gas feed line (block 132). Typically, the gas feed line receives a gas flow from a supply, for example, a gas supply network, gas cylinder, gas tank, and so forth. Atblock 134, theprocess 130 proceeds by flowing the gas from the gas feed line through a first circular/non-circular gas port to achieve primary air entrainment of gas. The first gas port may comprise various non-circular geometries, such as a triangular geometry, a rectangular geometry, a ring-shaped geometry, an elliptical geometry, a lobed geometry, and so forth. - Next, at
block 136, theprocess 130 then proceeds by passing gas flowing out of the first port into a venturi section. Theprocess 130 then proceeds to exhaust the gas through a second circular/non-circular gas port for secondary air entrainment (block 138). Again, the geometry of this port may comprise various non-circular, non-rectangular geometries, such as a triangular geometry, a ring-shaped geometry, an elliptical geometry, a lobed geometry, and so forth. Moreover, theprocess 130 may combust the gas-air mixture to create flames that may be used for cooking activities by a user of the gas cooking system. - Moreover, the
process 130 described above may comprise the act of increasing a gas/air temperature differential between gas and air adjacent the first gas port via a gas/air temperature differential mechanism (block 140). As will be apparent to one skilled in the art, increasing the gas/air temperature differential may comprise heating the gas. Alternatively, increasing the gas/air temperature differential may comprise cooling air entrained at the first gas port. - Referring now to
FIG. 14 , anexemplary process 142 for manufacturing a gas burner system having at least one non-circular gas port and/or a gas/air temperature differential mechanism in accordance with embodiments of the present technique is illustrated. Theprocess 142 begins atblock 144 by providing a venturi section in the gas burner system. The venturi section may be provided in a vertical setup. Atblock 146, theprocess 142 proceeds by positioning a first circular/non-circular gas port directing a gas stream from a gas line into the venturi section. Next, theprocess 142 proceeds by disposing a second circular, rectangular, or non-circular/non-rectangular gas port downstream from the venturi section (block 148). - The
process 142 as described above comprises providing non-circular port geometry for at least one of the first and second gas ports to increase the primary and secondary air entrainment, respectively. Theprocess 142 may also include positioning a gas/air temperature differential mechanism adjacent the first gas port (block 150) to increase a gas/air temperature differential adjacent the first gas port. The gas/air temperature differential mechanism may comprise a gas heating mechanism to heat gas flowing through the gas burner. Alternatively, the gas/air temperature differential mechanism may comprise an air cooling mechanism to decrease an air temperature of air entrained at the first gas port. - The various aspects of the method described hereinabove have utility in gas operated cooking appliances for example, gas cooktops, gas cookers, gas hobs, and gas ovens. As noted above, the method described here may be advantageous for such systems for enhancing primary and secondary air entrainment of gas while satisfying industry standards for emissions and fabric ignition.
- While only certain features of the invention have been illustrated and described herein, many modifications and changes will occur to those skilled in the art. It is, therefore, to be understood that the appended claims are intended to cover all such modifications and changes as fall within the true spirit of the invention.
