A burner device includes a burner body which includes a protruding portion protruding from a furnace wall into an interior of a combustion furnace, a cooling pipe through which a refrigerant for cooling the burner body flows, the cooling pipe being disposed so as to surround an outer peripheral surface of the protruding portion, and a light detection unit for detecting internal light of the cooling pipe.

A burner barrel includes a concentric multi-tubular structure, formed by pipes and at the end downstream the burner barrel is provided a burner tip in which various nozzles to inject fuel and primary air are perforated. The burner tip includes at least one series of nozzles intended to inject an external air flow; a second series of nozzles intended to inject tangential air flow; and a third series of apertures intended to inject the fuel and transport air. The ends downstream of the first and second burner pipes are joined and define a continuous external annular surface of the burner tip. The nozzles are arranged within an inscribed area, being the dimension of the nozzles limited by a rate between the open area A of the nozzles and the complementary closed area A.

To provide: a fuel nozzle (51) that can inject fuel gas in which fuel and air are mixed; a flame stabilizer (54) provided on an axial center side near a tip end of the fuel nozzle (51); and a casing member (55) that partitions an inner flow channel in which the flame stabilizer (54) is provided and an outer flow channel on an outer side of the inner flow channel, inside the fuel nozzle (51), where the flow channel cross-sectional area of the inner flow channel partitioned by the casing member (55) expands in the flow direction of the fuel gas.

In this combustion burner and boiler, interference of ignition in a flame stabilizer is suppressed and flame stabilizing performance is improved by providing: a fuel nozzle which ejects a fuel gas that is a mixture of pulverized coal and air; a combustion air nozzle which ejects a fuel gas combustion air from outside of the fuel nozzle; a secondary air nozzle which ejects secondary air from the outside of the combustion air nozzle; and a flame stabilizer which comprises a first flame stabilizer main body which is arranged at the leading end of the fuel nozzle and separated by a prescribed space from the inner wall surface of the fuel nozzle and which forms a ring shape having as the center an axial line along the ejection direction of the fuel gas.
