Claim:
1. A venturi nozzle for a gas combustor comprising: an orificed gas nozzle having a longitudinal axis, an inlet and an outlet having a larger diameter than the inlet; a venturi tube aligned with the longitudinal axis and having an entrance proximate to the outlet of the orificed gas nozzle and an exit; one or more support members attached between the orificed gas nozzle and the venturi tube that create a gap between an interior of the entrance of the venturi tube and an exterior of the outlet of the orificed gas nozzle; and wherein a gas exiting the outlet of the orificed gas nozzle provides a motive force that induces a flow of air into the entrance of the venturi tube that mixes with the gas within the venturi tube forming a gas-air mixture, and the gas-air mixture further mixes with an air outside the exit of the venturi tube when ignited to complete combustion of the gas.
