Abstract
An improved gas-fueled ceramic tile burner capable of maintaining a stable flame at very high surface heat loading of a high porosity ceramic body. The improved ceramic tile burner includes a coarse steel mesh which is positioned abutting the downstream side of the ceramic body and upon which a pressurized mixture of air and fuel is ignited. The mesh helps to generate gas regeneration zones which stabilize the flame. Optionally, the disclosed ceramic tile burner has a secondary retaining mesh below the ceramic body which can be connected to the coarse steel mesh and to a burner housing in order to ground the meshes.
