ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to heating apparatus for heating confined spaces, and particularly for heating passenger compartments in automotive vehicles and the like. The heating apparatus comprises a combustion device having means for supplying and mixing fuel and combustion air, and an outlet for combustion gases, and further comprises a heat exchanger which is connected to the outlet of the combustion device and which is intended for heat exchange between the combustion gases and a heating medium delivered to the space to be heated. According to the invention the combustion device incorporates a catalytic reactor for catalytic combustion of at least part of the fuel-air mixture, and a thermal reactor which is located between the catalytic reactor and the combustion gas outlet and which is intended for final combustion of the fuel-air mixture at least partially combusted in the catalytic reactor.
