  • the self -recovery burner illustrated and described in EP-A1-2 278 244 is a . free flame .burner comprising fuel gas feeding means, oxidant gas feeding means and exhaust fumes scavenging means .
  • the burner can suck the exhaust fumes generated by means of combustion, using them for pre-heating an oxidant gas through a ceramic heat recovering pipe .
  • the exhaust fumes flow flows counter current to the secondary air flow, thus heating it before it is mixed with the products of primary combustion.
  • the latent heat contained in the exhaust fumes is used for preheating the secondary air.
  • the heat exchange occurs through the aforesaid ceramic heat recovering pipe .
  • ceramic articles means items such as tiles, sanitary ware, roof tiles, bricks, etc.
  • Such ceramic items have therefore been obtained by compression of ceramic powders, or have been produced by casting of slurry or by extrusion; both kinds of items can be enamelled or raw.
  • said burners are not suitable to ceramic kilns because, when thermal power is increased in said kilns, they develop a huge amount of fumes entering the furnace chamber and putting in overpressure the chamber itself. Therefore, the furnace chamber must be designed so that it is capable to sustain huge stresses due to overpressure and obviously, as a consequence, this remarkably increases the building costs of the furnace .
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an innovative gas burner which can be advantageously used in the aforesaid heat-recovery combustion apparatus .

In fact, it has been experimentally observed that, in order to obtain an optimal combustion in this kind of burners, it is preferable that the secondary air flow reaches the dart (given by the combustion of fuel gas with primary air) in the most delicate way possible, namely as free of swirls as possible .
