Abstract
A gas cooking appliance includes a low profile gas burner assembly positioned within an oven cavity. The low profile gas burner assembly, formed from a tubular member having a defined diameter, includes a first end, defining an inlet portion, interconnected with a second end, defining an outlet portion, through an intermediate portion. In accordance with the invention, the intermediate portion maintains a vertically spaced relationship between the inlet portion and outlet portion from about 1.0 to 3.33 times the diameter of the tubular member, preferably about 1.33 to 2.66 times the diameter and, most preferably, approximately twice the diameter of the tubular member.
