Abstract
The present invention relates to a two stage venturi for a catalytic burner wherein a large exit aperture size and a small air entrainment opening are used to provide a low velocity, rich fuel/air mixture for the pre-heating process followed by a small exit aperture size and a large air entrainment opening to provide a high velocity, lean fuel/air mixture for the catalytic combustion process. Concentric rotating sleeves are used to vary the size of the exit apertures and the air entrainment openings.
