Construction Of Two Face Gas Burner
A two-face gas burner, also known as a dual-face gas burner, is a versatile heating device designed to provide efficient combustion for various applications. This burner comprises two distinct combustion chambers, each equipped with its own fuel inlet and control mechanism, allowing for independent operation or synchronized functionality. The construction involves precision engineering to ensure uniform gas distribution, optimal air-fuel mixing, and efficient heat transfer. Key components include burner heads, mixing tubes, flame stabilizers, and ignition systems, all assembled within a durable housing constructed from materials such as stainless steel or cast iron to withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments. The design incorporates features to enhance combustion efficiency, minimize emissions, and facilitate ease of installation and maintenance. By offering flexibility and reliability, a well-constructed two-face gas burner can meet the diverse heating requirements of industrial processes, commercial appliances, and residential heating systems, making it a desirable choice for applications demanding high performance and energy efficiency.
This project which is on the design and fabrication of a two face gas burner is a brief exploration on the various ways and means of designing, construction, operating the two face gas burner, putting cost into consideration for economic advantage. Herein are brief information and literature on gas burner. The properties of the constructional feature and their preference in construction are described. The combustion reaction resulting to the heat liberated is also given. Also, the practical approach in making the construction of a two face gas burner up to this standard is also given and recommendation to improve on the standard is also included in this report.

1.1 INTRODUCTION
The construction of a two-face gas burner as a project topic that we embark upon become necessary as a way of way of putting into application the engineering and technological knowledge acquired so far. It is a starting point of actualizing a functional technology in the country. Irrespective of the fact that there are several breads of gas burners in the market, especially the ones imported, we deemed it necessary to work further on it as a way of modifying the brand with cast not left out in such modification.
1.2 LITERATURE REVIEW
The development of simple gas burner started in the eighteen countries when people began to use coal gas for burning. The application was fast put into practice by William Mulock who designed the simple gas cooker to be used in his office, home and workplace
The first experimental gas cooker was made and in use in 1850. The improvement of this has multiplied greatly and is up to date widely used in homes, restaurants and large catering establishments. The different types of gas cookers available in the in the market are based on skills and techniques of the designer or producer.
Based on the nature of energy supply, some gas cookers are made up of combustion devices of an electric heating element. The well-constructed ones are properly adapted and form an integral combustion of which of which they generate and utilize heat. It is often quite different to draw a line where heat generation stops and where heat utilization starts in a fuel forced cooker. That is the fuel fired cooker being on the pack in the market these days.
The releasing of heart starts with mixture of air and fuel gas in the nozzle and combustion of the mixture to release heart takes place at the burner.
1.3 SPECIFICATION OF PROBLEM
In the course of fabricating the two-face gas burner, as a copied project with some propose modification, some condition which ought to be met are found as a standard of comparison with the already existing ones. This posed a difficulty in the course of this construction. Since choice between already existing gas cooker lies on service available, durability, connivance cost.
The following specifications were considered a problem when we started the design.
1. PORTABILITY.
How to fabricate a two-face gas burner that will occupy the minimum space in the kitchen was a problem. A two-face gas burner that is easily to be met in met in our design.
2. To construct a two-face gas burner that will be safe to any prospective user.
3. To constructs a two-face gas burner that will be easy to maintain and wise gas will be free from unpleasant smell.
4. To construct a two-face gas burner whose source of energy (fuel) will be local.
1.4 COMPONENT PARTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
1. Burner chamber
2. Linkage pipe
3. Hose
4. Gas Cylinder (containing gas valve)
5. Angle bar (material)
6. Control knob or valve
7. Connection pipe for gas flow
8. Nut
9. Rod.
THE BURNER: This being the main component where combustion takes place to release heat. There is gas delivery line, which leads to it in addition to an adjustment to control the rate of atmospheric air mixing with the natural gas
LINKAGE PILE: This is the pipe line through which natural gas flow to the burner. One is lined along the frame of the burner as seen.
THE GAS CYLINDER: This is the component of the gas burner that containing the gas fuel through which a hose as connected to the copper pipe of the burner through the gas passes to the burner for combustion.
THE ANGLE BAR: This was used in constructing the frame of the gas burner.
HOSE: This serves as a link between the copper tubing and the control value of the burner.
CONTROL KNOB OR VALVE: It is a essential component of the gas burner and it is used to regulate the volume or amount of natural gas flowing to the burner.
MILD STELL PLATE this is used as a covering or a wall for the gas burner. It also serves as a seat for the values.
Construction Of Two Face Gas Burner:
Constructing a two-face gas burner involves creating a device capable of generating controlled flames on two separate surfaces. This type of burner can be used for various applications, such as cooking, heating, or industrial processes. Keep in mind that working with gas can be dangerous, so it’s essential to follow safety guidelines and, if necessary, consult a professional.
Here are the general steps to construct a basic two-face gas burner:
Materials and Tools:
- Gas supply (natural gas or propane)
- Two gas burners or burner heads
- Gas hoses and fittings (rated for the gas type)
- Gas control valve(s)
- Ignition system (e.g., piezoelectric igniters or spark igniters)
- Metal base or frame
- Metal plates or grates (for supporting the items you want to heat or cook)
- Adjustable stands or brackets
- Wrenches, pliers, and other basic hand tools
- Gas pressure regulator (if needed)
Construction Steps:
- Plan Your Design: Decide on the overall size and configuration of your two-face gas burner. Consider the intended use and the size of the items you want to heat or cook on it.
- Assemble the Frame: Build a sturdy metal frame or base for the gas burner. Ensure that it’s stable and can support the weight of the burners and the items you’ll place on them.
- Mount the Burner Heads: Attach the gas burner heads to the frame, ensuring they are securely mounted and level. You may need adjustable brackets or stands to achieve the desired angle or height for the flames.
- Connect the Gas Supply: Connect the gas supply line to the burner heads using gas hoses and fittings rated for the type of gas you’re using (natural gas or propane). Make sure all connections are tight and leak-free.
- Install Gas Control Valves: Install individual gas control valves for each burner head. These valves will allow you to adjust the flame intensity for each face independently.
- Add Ignition System: Install an ignition system for each burner head. You can use piezoelectric igniters or spark igniters to ensure a safe and convenient way to light the burners.
- Test the Burners: Before using the burner for any cooking or heating applications, perform a thorough leak test to ensure there are no gas leaks. Turn on the gas supply and use a soapy water solution to check for bubbles at all connections. If you find any leaks, shut off the gas supply and fix the issue before proceeding.
- Adjust Flame Intensity: Turn on the gas and use the control valves to adjust the flame intensity for each burner face. You can now use your two-face gas burner for your intended applications.
- Safety Precautions: Always follow safety guidelines for handling gas, including proper ventilation, keeping flammable materials away, and having a fire extinguisher nearby. If you’re not experienced with gas systems, consider consulting a professional or seeking assistance.
Remember that this is a basic guide, and the specific construction details may vary depending on your requirements and the type of gas burner heads and equipment you’re using. Always prioritize safety and follow local regulations and safety codes when working with gas equipment.
