In a combustor for supplying combustion heat to a heater core and an intake side of an engine, when the engine is started, combustion gas is supplied to an intake side of the engine while non-combustion air is introduced into a combustion gas passage partitioned from a water passage of the heater core by a heat-conduction partition member. In this case, non-combustion air is used as an air curtain for interrupting a heat transmission from the combustion gas of the combustion gas passage to water of the water passage.

Combustor with non-combustion air introduction

A combustion type heater of this invention includes fuel distribution means for distributing a fuel to the whole surface of a wick disposed upstream of the wick in a fuel passage. The fuel distribution means comprises fuel distribution grooves and a fuel dispersion plate having a large number of holes bored therein. The fuel distribution means can quickly supply the fuel to the whole surface of the wick. To shorten the heating time of the wick, the heater of the present invention uses a wick heating glow plug outside an ignition glow plug or a planar heater for heating the wick.
