CATALYTIC COMBUSTION APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1984/004377
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A catalytic combustion apparatus is provided with a catalyst (39, 66, 83, 93) which causes an oxidation reaction between a vaporized fuel gas and air, and an ignition heater (14, 67, 86) which is used to start the oxidation reaction that takes place in the presence of the catalyst. The catalytic combustion apparatus is also provided with a first member (30, 62, 72, 78) of a pipe shape which supports the catalyst (39, 66, 83, 93) and supplies it with the vaporized fuel gas, and a second member (31, 63, 73, 79) which is arranged within the first member, and one end thereof is secured to the first member. The first member and second members in combination constitute a heat-responsive element, and the gas flow rate is also regulated by making use of the differences in thermal expansion of the first and second members.
