Abstract
Abstract A warming apparatus uses a gas burner which comprises a burner body and a plurality of tubular flame nozzles projecting radially from the burner body. The tubular nozzles have an internal diametr which ranges from about 1 mm to about 4 mm, and the projecting length of the tubular nozzles which extends from the burner body is within a range of from about 10 mm to about 40 mm. The nozzles have axially directed nozzle openings. The warming apparatus comprises the gas burner in combination with first and second radiators and a heat interception plate positioned between the burner body and the radiators.
