Abstract: A water heater includes a water tank having an inlet and an outlet, and a flue extending through the tank. A nozzle is positioned near a first end of the flue, arranged so as to emit a fuel stream into the flue, and a flame holder is located within the flue in a position to receive the fuel stream and to hold a flame entirely within the flue.

Abstract: A combustion system includes a fuel and oxidant source, a perforated flame holder, and a support structure that supports the perforated flame holder at a selected distance from the fuel and oxidant source. The fuel and oxidant source outputs fuel and oxidant onto the perforated flame holder. The perforated flame holder receives the fuel and oxidant and sustains a combustion reaction of the fuel and oxidant within the perforated flame holder.

Abstract: A combustion system includes a perforated flame holder positioned within a combustion volume, a nozzle configured to emit a fuel stream toward the perforated flame holder, an oxidant source configured to introduce an oxidizer fluid into the combustion volume, and a flue gas recirculation (FGR) channel having a first end in fluid communication with the combustion volume downstream of the perforated flame holder and a second end in fluid communication with the oxidant source. A controller is configured to hold a combustion parameter within a selected range of values by regulating a quantity of flue gas flowing in the FGR channel.
