Abstract

A burner assembly having a burner enclosure for a combustion system is provided. The enclosure includes a first enclosure portion configured to receive air and fuel, a second enclosure portion, a partition disposed between the first enclosure and the second enclosure, and a passage connecting the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion such that the air and fuel may flow from the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A burner enclosure for a combustion system, the enclosure comprising:
 a first enclosure portion configured to receive air and fuel;   a second enclosure portion including an outlet;   a partition disposed between the first enclosure portion and the second enclosure portion; and   a passage connecting the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion such that the air and fuel may flow from the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion.   
     
     
         2 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 an ignition source disposed adjacent to the outlet.   
     
     
         3 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the first enclosure portion and the passage are configured to at least partially mix the air and fuel. 
     
     
         4 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the passage is sized to minimize ignition blow-off. 
     
     
         5 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the passage is sized to minimize noise generation. 
     
     
         6 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the passage is spaced from the partition. 
     
     
         7 . The enclosure of  claim 1 , wherein the passage is formed at least partially by the partition. 
     
     
         8 . A burner assembly for a combustion system, the assembly comprising:
 a heat exchanger cavity;   a burner head disposed in the heat exchanger cavity; and   a burner enclosure operably coupled to the heat exchanger cavity, the burner enclosure comprising
 a first enclosure portion configured to receive air and fuel; 
 a second enclosure portion including an outlet; 
 a partition disposed between the first enclosure and the second enclosure; and 
 a passage connecting the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion such that the air and fuel may flow from the first enclosure portion to the second enclosure portion. 
   
     
     
         9 . The assembly of  claim 8 , further comprising an ignition source disposed within the heat exchanger cavity and adjacent to the outlet. 
     
     
         10 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the first enclosure portion and the passage are configured to at least partially mix the air and fuel. 
     
     
         11 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the passage is sized to minimize ignition blow-off. 
     
     
         12 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the passage is sized to minimize noise generation. 
     
     
         13 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the passage is spaced from the partition. 
     
     
         14 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the passage is formed at least partially by the partition.
