Abstract:
A scalable pulse combustor that can be deployed as the heat exchanger in high efficiency, low NOx condensing boilers, water heaters and steam generators is provided. The combustor generally comprises an annular burner coil with a burner flange for accommodating the nozzle of a conventional burner/blower fitted into the central aperture thereof; a spaced-apart opposite annular spreader coil with a heat exchange hub fitted into the central aperture thereof; and a plurality of annular intermediate coils. Each of the burner, spreader and intermediate coils are preferably formed of spiral wound stainless steel tubing, with each winding directly abutting the preceding winding so as to create an annular wall. The heat exchange hub functions as a secondary heat exchanger with its own independently controllable coolant flow.

Claim (Index 7):
The scalable pulse combustor of  claim 1 , wherein the burner flange comprises a grooved outer lateral profile dimensioned for fitting into the central aperture of the burner coil without welding.
