Claims17
A method of forming a single skin gas burner membrane, the method comprising forming a plurality of holes in a sheet of stainless steel, the holes being formed by laser cutting a required pattern of holes in the sheet of stainless steel, wherein at least a majority of the holes have a diameter equal to or less than the thickness of the sheet of stainless steel wherein the single skin gas burner membrane is arranged such that when fuel is passed through the plurality of holes, the fuel is ignited immediately adjacent an outer surface of the single skin gas burner membrane.
A single skin gas burner including:
- a single skin gas burner membrane comprising a sheet of stainless steel with a plurality of holes, with at least a majority of the holes having a diameter equal to or less than 1.3 times the thickness of the sheet of stainless steel;
- and
- a hydrogen gas supply,
- wherein the single skin gas burner membrane is arranged such that when fuel is passed through the plurality of holes, the fuel is ignited immediately adjacent an outer surface of the single skin gas burner membrane.
A single skin gas burner membrane comprising a sheet of stainless steel with a plurality of holes, with at least a majority of the holes having a diameter equal to or less than 1.3 times the thickness of the sheet of stainless steel, wherein the single skin gas burner membrane is arranged such that when fuel is passed through the plurality of holes, the fuel is ignited immediately adjacent an outer surface of the single skin gas burner membrane.
