Abstract
A combustion apparatus includes a combustion chamber and a single-type regenerative combustion burner. The burner is arranged with respect to the combustion chamber so that a direction in which burnt gas returns to the burner is not opposed to a direction in which fuel and supply air are expelled from the burner. This combustion apparatus is applicable to various types of industrial furnaces including various types of boilers, for example, a crucible-type furnace.
