A gas burner comprises a ceramic tube through which a gaseous fuel flows, a chamber surrounding the ceramic tube, and means for delivering preheated combustion air to the chamber. There is a venturi around the tip of the ceramic tube, angled with respect to the tube, through which the preheated combustion air flows. The venturi enhances mixing of the air with the gaseous fuel forward of the tip of the ceramic tube.

A gas burner comprising a gas inlet tube comprising a tubular casting of a castable insulating ceramic material and having a tapered forward end; a ceramic body spaced from, and surrounding, the gas inlet tube, the space therebetween defining a chamber, the ceramic body having a tapered forward end; a hole in the ceramic body serving as an inlet for preheated combustion air into the chamber; the forward ends of the gas inlet tube and the ceramic body tapering in the same direction, the space between said tapered forward ends being an annular venturi, the path of the venturi intersecting the axis of the gas inlet tube forward of the gas inlet tube so that mixing of the preheated combustion air and the gas occurs forward of the gas inlet tube; the relationship between the cross sectional area of the venturi and the cross sectional area of the gas inlet tube through which the gas flows being such as to provide a high turndown ratio; said ceramic body having a tapered forward end which tapers at about 45°and then tapers more gradually to form in cooperation with said gas inlet tube the throat of said venturi; the cross sectional area of the venturi through which the preheated air flows being less than about four times the cross sectional area of the fuel gas outlet area.
