Burner

Available in 2-nozzle, 3-nozzle and 4-nozzle configurations, compatible with balloon envelopes of different volumes.

Key component materials:

  • Nozzles: adopte 310S stainless steel (temperature resistance up to 1150℃);
  • Coils: adopte 316L stainless steel (corrosion resistance and thermal fatigue resistance).

Equipped with a pulley labor-saving system; the opening pull force of the top parachute complies with airworthiness standards.

Note: The measured data of a single nozzle is 5 kg/min propane consumption, corresponding to 219,000 BTU/min.

Thermal power is calculated based on propane calorific value of 19,900 BTU/lb (46.4 MJ/kg).

Actual performance shall be affected by valve opening, fuel pressure and ambient temperature.

Parameter Description

  1. Propane Consumption: Maximum mass flow rate when the main valve is fully open, unit: kilogram per minute (kg/min).
  2. Thermal Power: Heat power released by complete combustion of propane, unit: British Thermal Unit per minute (BTU/min), 1 BTU/min≈0.01757 kW.
  3. Applicable Envelope Volume: Recommended matching volume range of hot air balloon envelopes. Actual matching shall be adjusted according to flight altitude, ambient temperature and other factors.
