Abstract
A burner for use with liquid fuels in heating devices, especially vehicle heaters, as a low pressure atomizer arranged at one end of a combustion chamber that includes a burner insert and a nozzle projecting into an end of the burner insert that faces away from the combustion chamber, and a supply means for feeding a fuel and a primary air stream into the nozzle, at least the quantity of primary air passing through the burner being controllable automatically by a flow control valve and arrangement in dependence upon the temperature of the burner. Additionally, in accordance with preferred embodiments the flow control valve arrangement may be either a bimetallic ring or a bimetallic strip which opens or blocks off the passage of air in dependence on the temperature. In addition to controlling the primary combustion air, controlling of secondary air is also provided.
