Abstract
A combustion apparatus includes a moderator gas supply which is added to the fuel to be combusted by concurrent injection to form an intimate admixture as it enters the combustion chamber. Such intimate mixture facilitates a high degree of temperature control within the combustion zone of the flame itself, thereby protecting combustion components and at least reducing or eliminating the formation of thermal NO.sub.x.
