A gas burner for use in low-oxygen environments in which the oxygen concentration is insufficient to ensure complete combustion. The burner includes a central air supply that is annularly surrounded by a gas supply, thereby preventing the fuel from burning out with a delay in places where burn-out is detrimental to a system or plant.

A combustion burner employed in a submerged combustion vessel used to melt high index glass includes an arch positioned on a burner in the submerged combustion vessel. An amount of combustible gas flows through a first port disposed in a first haunch of the arch and through a second port disposed in a second haunch of the arch. Fuel is supplied through an end port in a fuel supply line. The end port is disposed under the arch. An amount of glass is fed into the submerged combustion vessel and is melted inside the submerged combustion vessel by igniting the burner. Some of the melted glass at least partially solidifies against a wall of the submerged combustion vessel such that the melted glass is contained in a vessel of itself.

A combined combustion burner and a combustion apparatus including the combined combustion burner. The combined combustion burner may include a center tube forming a center passage configured to supply cooling air, a fuel tube surrounding the center tube and forming a fuel passage through which premixed fuel mixed with solid fuel and primary air is sprayed, a secondary tube surrounding the fuel tube and forming a secondary passage through which secondary air is sprayed, and an additional spray nozzle inserted inside the center tube and configured to spray auxiliary fuel containing ammonia.

A burner (1) for the production of synthesis gas, configured to feed a reactant stream and an oxidant stream into a reaction chamber, the burner comprising at least one cooled component (11, 12), wherein said cooled component comprises channels (20) to convey a cooling medium, a cooling medium header (24) and a cooling medium collector (25), wherein said channels, said cooling medium header and said cooling medium collector are integrally formed within said cooled component of the burner.

A combustion system includes a fuel and oxidant source, a perforated flame holder, and a support structure that supports the perforated flame holder at a selected distance from the fuel and oxidant source. The fuel and oxidant source outputs fuel and oxidant onto the perforated flame holder. The perforated flame holder receives the fuel and oxidant and sustains a combustion reaction of the fuel and oxidant within the perforated flame holder.

A multi-functional fuel nozzle (10) for a combustion turbine engine is provided. A nozzle cap (50) may be disposed at a downstream end of the nozzle. A heat shield (60) is mounted onto the nozzle cap. A plurality of cooling channels (62) is arranged between a forward face of the nozzle cap and a corresponding back side of the heat shield. The plurality of cooling channels may be arranged to discharge cooling air over a forward face of an atomizer assembly in the multi-functional fuel nozzle.

A gaseous fuel-oxygen burner is described herein. One device includes a flame zone in which combustion of gaseous fuel and oxygen occurs to form a flame, a coaxial gaseous fuel jet configured to provide the flame zone with gaseous fuel, and a coaxial oxygen jet configured to provide the flame zone with oxygen, wherein the coaxial gaseous fuel jet and the coaxial oxygen jet are separate such that the gaseous fuel from the coaxial gaseous fuel jet and the oxygen from the coaxial oxygen jet do not mix before entering the flame zone.

The present invention relates to a cylindrical non-melt and partial melt type entrained flow bed gasifier with one or more burners mounted on the top thereof for supplying pulverized raw coal and oxidizer thereto, wherein each of the burners comprises three or four pipes so as to form a central supplying line for injecting the pulverized coal with a carrier gas into the gasifier, a primary oxidizer annular region around the central supplying line having a plurality of primary oxidizer supplying bores for injecting primary oxidizer vertically or at an angle to the injection region of the pulverized coal supplied through the central supplying line so as to direct the pulverized coal to the central region, and an outer cooling annular region around the primary oxidizer annular region for flowing cooling water, which is operated preferably at a temperature range of 1,2501,450 C., or of 1,1501,500 C. according to the properties of the coal. According to the present invention, the pulverized coal and oxidizer are properly mixed, and the pulverized coal is directed towards the middle of the gasifier, so that the reaction is completed with the ash being wholly non-melted or partially melted.

An internal combustion burner including a combustion chamber supplied with fuel and with oxidant and at least two combustion devices supplied with oxidant and with fuel. Combining two combustion devices of distinct configurations, which respectively generate two distinct types of flames with a system for cooling the walls of the burner by introducing air along the walls, makes it possible to obtain a burner that supplies a combustion gas temperature of up to 1700 C., while at the same time being easily cooled and occupying very little space so that it can, for example, be housed in an existing installation used in the manufacture of rock wool or glass wool.

A laminar flow jet for a surface mix gas burner that provides increased stability, adjustability, and control over flame chemistries and characteristics. The present invention utilizes a novel shape, typically created by a tube having a cross-sectional shape and inserting it into a faceplate cutout, or conduit, having another cross-sectional shape. This nesting of one shape inside another promotes laminar gas flow and produces desired effects. Tubes may also be placed under the faceplate provided they maintain fluid communication with the conduits. Further, a burner is constructed with adjacent gas delivery tubes of different cross-sectional shapes which are mechanically held in place radially. The tubes touch in a longitudinal direction at points along their respective inner and outer dimensions, achieving axial alignment and preserving the necessary laminar gas flow. This configuration greatly speeds manufacturing time which allows production of economical burners even when a greater number of jets is desired.
