Abstract
A gas burner for an appliance includes a base and a cover. The base includes a wall peripherally formed about the base. The wall includes a plurality of slits extending through the wall and downwardly from a top of the wall. A cover is configured to be placed on the base and form a chamber in fluid communication with a gas conduit. The cover is configured to bound the slits to define a plurality of ports for releasing combustible gas exteriorly of the gas burner. The ports include an entry section near the inner surface and an exit section near the outer surface. Each of the slits includes a floor that is curved upwards from the entry section to the exit section.
