Working Mechanism
- The basic components of a portable gas heater are a burner, a heat exchanger, a gas supply and a control system.
- The burner is the part that burns the fuel. The fuel is mixed with air in the burner and a spark or pilot light ignites the mixture.
- The heat exchanger transfers the heat from the combustion process to the air in the room.
- The gas supply is the fuel source (propane tank or natural gas line) for the heater. The control system regulates the fuel flow to the burner and the operation of other components like the fan or the pilot light.
- When the heater is turned on, the control system opens the valve to allow gas to flow to the burner. The burner then ignites the gas and the heat exchanger starts transferring heat to the air in the room. A fan may also be used to circulate the warm air throughout the room.
- The temperature of the room can be controlled by adjusting the flow of gas to the burner or by adjusting the fan speed.
