Abstract

The dual cannister gas housing of the present invention permits combustion of two separate gases of different heating values for industrial applications. The housing includes a first annular chamber surrounding a combustion zone, the first chamber receiving a first gas. Holes in the inner wall of the chamber permit entry of the first gas into the combustion zone. A second chamber surrounds the first chamber and receives a second gas. Tubes connect the second chamber to the combustion zone, the tubes passing through the first chamber to prevent mixing of gas. The number and size of the tubes and holes are selected for each application to insure proper entry velocity and pressure drop for the first and second gases.
