Abstract
A gas flow rate controller arranged between a gas burner and a flammable gas source and a combustion-assisting gas source includes a gas flow rate setting means for producing a flow rate setting signal corresponding to a preset flow rate of gas flowing toward the gas burner. A ratio setting means produces a flammable gas setting reference signal and a combustion-assisting gas flow rate setting signal at a predetermined ratio, based on the flow rate setting signal produced by the gas flow rate setting means. The flow rate of the flammable gas detected is compared with the flammable gas setting reference signal produced and the flow rate of the combustion-assisting gas detected is compared with the combustion-assisting gas flow rate setting reference signal produced. Control valves are feedback controlled so that any differences therebetween will become zero. Thus the mixing ratio between the gases is kept constant even if the gas pressures change.
