The infrared energy-saving burner is an infrared gas energy-saving stove burner that applies a unique complete pre-mixing technology of air and gas. It uses the induction tube to deliver gas, allowing for sufficient mixing of gas inside the burner before combustion. The flameless combustion method ensures more thorough gas combustion without producing additional exhaust gases.
The combustion plate of the infrared energy-saving burner is made from synthetic cordierite, produced with a strictly precise formula and undergoing rigorous manufacturing processes. Besides having high mechanical strength, its most prominent feature is excellent thermal shock resistance, capable of withstanding temperatures around 1800 degrees Celsius, without corrosion or pulverization. Long-term use will not cause deformation. Through special processes, it creates a combustion plate surface with over 8000 fire holes, adding another layer of "catalyst." Its role is to assist combustion while increasing the radiation power of infrared rays and reducing the production of nitrogen oxides during combustion. Zhi Mei's infrared energy-saving burner has a long service life, up to 10,000 hours. Calculating with an average daily usage of 3 hours, it can last approximately ten years. Moreover, it changes the traditional combustion method of household stoves, thereby achieving energy-saving effects on gas.
When using ordinary stoves, nearly half of the gas is wasted unnecessarily. The reasons for gas waste mainly include the following two points:
1. Incomplete combustion, also known as "chemical heat loss," results in the unnecessary waste of unburned gas thermal energy.
2. Ordinary stoves rely on flames transferring heat through convection to the heated object. However, the contact between the flame and the heated object is only instantaneous; the remaining heat dissipates into the space without being utilized, which is referred to as "physical heat loss." Therefore, the thermal efficiency of atmospheric gas stoves is usually only about 50%, meaning nearly half of the gas is wasted.
The infrared energy-saving burner reduces these two types of heat losses to achieve energy-saving effects:
The infrared energy-saving burner adopts complete pre-mixed combustion, improving the structure of the burner so that gas mixes sufficiently with air before burning. Simultaneously, the infrared energy-saving burner's radiative combustion plate has thousands of fire holes, ensuring enough air for gas combustion, making the combustion very thorough and reducing "chemical heat loss."
The combustion plate made from cordierite converts the heat energy generated by combustion into infrared radiation transfer, enabling the heated object to absorb it more effectively and significantly reducing "physical heat loss." According to relevant institutions' tests, the thermal efficiency of the infrared energy-saving burner reaches as high as 68%. Compared to ordinary atmospheric gas stoves, it saves more than 40% of energy. Field experiments have also proven this point.
Zhi Mei's infrared energy-saving burner has strong firepower: adopting infrared combustion technology, it can achieve a relatively high stove surface temperature (nearly 1200 degrees Celsius). Infrared rays themselves carry a large amount of energy, do not require air as a medium for transmission, and have strong penetrating radiation capabilities. Thus, the thermal efficiency is greatly improved, shortening the time required to heat food, making the heating process faster and more efficient.
