Abstract

A deep fat fryer is described which is heated by burner tubes extending through the central portion thereof and by burners therein which are metal mesh. The burners support combustion only on the surface so that the primary heat source is infra-red energy to the burner tubes. Exhaust gases from the burner tubes are circulated around sides and upper portion of the fryer only so that the central and upper portions of the tank are heated and the lower portion serves as a sump.
