The swirling air stream of the Selas Sidewinder II Gas Flat Flame Excess Air Burner produces a negative vortex at the refractory block mouth. Gas enters the vortex, mixing rapidly, producing intense combustion. The inverted parabolic shape of the burner block port works with the vortex to pull flames flat to the furnace wall at firing rates and mixtures.
Description
Sidewinder Gas Burners are nozzle-mixing units with a high velocity, spinning, air flow. The swirling air stream produces a negative vortex at the refractory block mouth. Gas enters the vortex, mixing rapidly, producing intense combustion. The inverted parabolic shape of the burner block port works with the vortex to pull flames flat to the furnace wall at firing rates and mixtures.
