Abstract
To improve the efficiency of recuperator burners, preferably to over 80%, a recuperator burner () is equipped with an auxiliary heat exchanger () which surrounds the recuperator (), wherein both the recuperator and the auxiliary heat exchanger are preferably formed as purely counterdirectional-flow heat exchangers, wherein the auxiliary heat exchanger () has the air supplied to it on the side facing toward the furnace wall (). The housing () around the auxiliary heat exchanger () can be cooled with cool air from the inside. In one configuration, the air is initially conducted to a flange cooler () to protect the region of the flange () against the exhaust-gas temperature. For example, the ceramic recuperator pipe () is resiliently pressed, and sealed off, against an outlet-side surface () of the auxiliary heat exchanger (), which preferably has gap-like air ducts () formed in flattened pipes ().
