An annular burner assembly having an annular burner mesh. An annular gas/air supply duct supplies a combustible gas/air mixture to the burner mesh in a substantially axial direction. A flow modifier is provided in the vicinity of the burner and has a plurality of fins each extending in a substantially radial plane to define a plurality of passages arranged circumferentially around the supply duct to substantially laminarise the gas/air mixture. The fins provide a thermal link from the burner to a location radially away from the burner. The burner assembly is particularly suited to a Stirling engine.

Annular burner assembly

A heating arrangement for heating a fluid, the arrangement comprising an elongate housing having a main axis. An inner chamber () for a first fluid surrounds the axis. A plurality of axially extending fins () project into the inner chamber. An exhaust gas inlet which receives exhaust gas, for example, from a Stirling engine, is provided at one end of the inner chamber. A supplementary burner () at the opposite end of the chamber is arranged to fire radially outwardly on to the fins. An outer chamber () for a second fluid surrounds the inner chamber.

Heating arrangement

The heating appliance, and particularly a dchp system, comprising two burners (). A splitter valve () splits a stream of air () into two streams, one for each burner. Combustible fuel is mixed with the air. A controller controls the combustible fuel, and the splitter valve position, thereby controlling the portion of air fed to each burner.
