Venturi nozzle for a gas combustor
A venturi nozzle for a gas combustor includes an orificed gas nozzle, a venturi tube and one or more support members. The orificed gas nozzle has a longitudinal axis, an inlet and an outlet. The venturi tube is aligned with the longitudinal axis and has an entrance proximate to the outlet of the orificed gas nozzle and an exit. The support member(s) are attached between the orificed gas nozzle and the venturi tube to create a gap between the venturi tube and the orificed gas nozzle. In some embodiments, two or more venturi nozzles can be combined together in various configurations into a nozzle assembly or multi-nozzle gas combustor and attached, mounted or disposed within a stack, chimney or vented enclosure. The wall(s) of the stack, chimney or vented enclosure may include one or more openings, cut outs or vents to provide primary and secondary air to the venturi nozzles.
Recessed fuel injector positioning
A combustion chamber for a gas turbine is provided. The combustion chamber has a pilot burner device, a fuel injector and an ignitor unit. The pilot burner device has a pilot body with a pilot surface which is facing an inner volume of the combustion chamber. The fuel injector has a fuel outlet for injecting a fuel into the inner volume. The ignitor unit is adapted for igniting the fuel inside the inner volume, wherein the ignitor unit is arranged at the pilot surface such that fuel which passes the ignitor unit is ignitable. The pilot body includes a recess, wherein the fuel outlet is arranged within the recess.

Gas control valve featuring magnetic control and gas ignition system having the same
A gas control valve featuring magnetic control and a gas ignition system having the same are disclosed. The gas control valve includes a main body and a magnetic control assembly. The main body has a valve base and a control lever. The control lever is movably connected to the valve base. The magnetic control assembly has a magnetic member and a magnetic control switch. The magnetic member is installed in one of the valve base and the control lever, while the magnetic control switch is installed in the other of the valve base and the control lever. When the control lever moves to an ignition position, the magnetic control switch is affected by the magnetic member and forms a closed circuit. The magnetic control assembly is incorporated in the gas control valve in a modularized manner, and can be easily maintained and repaired.

FUEL SYSTEMS FOR TORCH IGNITION DEVICES
A torch igniter system for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a housing defining a combustion chamber, an ignition source disposed at least partially in the combustion chamber, a fuel injector, a first fluid path connecting a first fuel source to the fuel injector, a second fluid path connecting an air source to the fuel injector, and a third fluid path connecting a second fuel source to the combustion chamber. The fuel injector is configured to inject fuel, air, or a mixture of fuel and air into the combustion chamber and to impinge on the ignition source.
Gas burner system and method thereof
A system for use with a fired vessel of production/separators or dehydration equipment that includes a metal box, a main burner, a pilot burner, and a flame arrestor. The main burner and the pilot burner extend through the metal box and the first flame arrestor is connected to the metal box.
TORCH IGNITER COOLING SYSTEM
An embodiment of a torch igniter for a combustor of a gas turbine engine includes a combustion chamber oriented about an axis, a cap defining the axially upstream end of the combustion chamber and situated on the axis, a tip defining the axially downstream end of the combustion chamber, an igniter wall extending from the cap to the tip and defining a radial extent of the combustion chamber, a structural wall coaxial with and surrounding the igniter wall, an outlet passage defined by the igniter wall within the tip, wherein the outlet passage fluidly connects the combustion chamber to the combustor of the gas turbine engine, and a cooling system. The cooling system has an air inlet, a cooling channel, and an aperture. The cooling channel forms a flow path having a first axial section, a second axial section, a radially inward section, and a radially outward section.
