An inspirator is a device, similar to a venturi tube and an orifice plate, which mixes a fuel gas with atmospheric air in a precise ratio to regulate burn characteristics. Only the pressure of the fuel gas is used to draw in and mix the air. They are the most simple and common type of mixing device for gas stoves and furnaces. Burners using an inspirator are considered to be naturally aspirated.
Pilot gas preheating for a gas flare pilot burner
A pilot burner for igniting a gas flare includes a pilot gas supply line, an inspirator, a gas feed line, a pilot output and an igniter. The pilot gas supply line is configured to receive a flow of pilot gas from a pilot gas source. The inspirator receives the flow of pilot gas from the pilot gas supply line and mixes the flow of pilot gas with air to form a mixed flow of air and gas. The gas feed line receives the mixed flow from the inspirator. The pilot output is connected to the gas feed line and discharges the mixed flow. The igniter is configured to ignite the mixed flow discharged through the pilot output to form a flame. The pilot gas supply line includes a gas preheat conduit section that is positioned adjacent to the pilot output and is configured to be heated by the flame.
