Abstract

A flame heat transfer regulating apparatus including an inner hollow shell and outer wall incorporated with a burner having improved burner ports for a gas stove to increase the flame heating efficiency in cooking. The shell is an ascending wall including a smaller sized bottom opening and a larger sized top opening. A plurality of air passages are through the shell, wherein the air passages are more densely distributed onto a lower part, and are less densely distributed onto an upper part of the shell. The outer wall includes a plurality of air passages therethrough and multiple extensions projecting upwardly spaced on a top of the wall, wherein one extension is served to prevent undesirable heating of a handle of an utensil. The inner shell and outer wall are positioned on the gas stove cooktop. The shell is positioned to surround an upper section of the burner, where the improved burner ports are positioned. The outer wall is positioned to surround the inner shell. Each identical improved burner port includes a smaller section having a smaller sized inlet connected to an expanded larger section having an ascending interior surface and a larger sized outlet for forming a stable kernel of the flame.
