Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to you in the hope that you may be of assistance. I am a time served Plumber and am at present a lecturer in Plumbing and Heating at the Institute of Technology Blanchardstown, Dublin 15, Ireland.
I am presently involved in the delivery of the Standards Based Apprenticeship System which contains an extensive module on Oil Fired Heating.
I am also in the final year of an Honours Degree programme and have chosen Oil Fired Burners (Pressure Jet / Atomising) as the subject for my thesis. At present I am looking at same from an historical perspective and would appreciate any archived information/literature that could be of assistance to me, in particular I am interested in finding out information on the early development of the oil fired burner in the USA and also its introduction into the European/Irish market.
Furthermore any technical information on the combustion process employed on this type of burner, the effects on efficiency through routine maintenance / servicing, etc, would be invaluable.
Yours Sincerely
Jerry Bradley LCGI. Eng Tech. MIP. RP.

Oil Tech Talk
HI. There is a guy named Alan Mercurio that runs a great web site called Oil Tech Talk. That is probably the best place to find any information about oil burners. Or at least I'm sure they could steer you in the right direction! Good luck with your project. Regards, Jason.
