At least one first passage, at least one second passage and a mixing chamber are formed in the burner, and the mixing chamber is respectively connected to an outlet of the first passage and an outlet of the second passage, so that a first fluid and a second fluid are mixed in the mixing chamber to form a fluid mixture; wherein the burner includes a nozzle, and at least one through passage fluidly connected to the mixing chamber is formed in the nozzle, so that the fluid mixture flows out from the at least one through passage, and wherein the sum of the sectional areas of the at least one through passage is smaller than the sectional area of the mixing chamber.

A burner comprises: at least one mixing tube extending inside a fuel plenum and having an interior configured to be supplied with an air; and a plurality of fuel injection holes for injecting a fuel supplied to the fuel plenum into the interior of the at least one mixing tube. When the at least one mixing tube is viewed in an axial direction of the mixing tube, a central axis of each of the plurality of fuel injection holes is oblique in a same direction with respect to a circumferential direction of the mixing tube, to a radial direction of the mixing tube.

A burner nozzle assembly comprising a nozzle body having a body inlet end, a body outlet end spaced apart from the body inlet end, a body air inlet adapted to convey a quantity of air, and a body fuel inlet adapted to convey a quantity of fuel, a nozzle mixer having a mixer inlet end, a mixer outlet end spaced apart from the mixer inlet end, a mixer air inlet adapted to convey the quantity of air, a mixer fuel inlet adapted to convey the quantity of fuel, and a mixing zone, a nozzle cap which is disposed adjacent to the body outlet end and the nozzle mixer, and a pintle which is partially disposed in the nozzle mixer. The mixer air inlet forms a substantially conical shape. A method for producing a burner flame.

Disclosed is a liquid-gas mixer including a central passageway provided about an injector axis, and first and second gas passageways. The first gas passageway is radially outward of the central passageway and radially inward of the second gas passageway. A turbulator is provided between the first and second gas passageways, and includes a plurality of first disturbance generators and a plurality of second disturbance generators. The first and second disturbance generators are provided about the turbulator in an alternating arrangement.

Provided are dryness raiser and method for improving steam dryness of a steam injection boiler. Technical solutions of the dryness raiser and the method are that: a plurality of compressed air circulation holes perpendicular to a front end head are provided in the middle of a flange bolt hole of the front end head in a compressed air inlet passage, and the compressed air inlet passage is connected to a fuel pipe passage by the compressed air circulation holes; and a plurality of compressed air heat dissipation holes are provided in a front end face of the front end head, and are perpendicular to and are connected to the compressed air circulation holes, air heat dissipation nozzles are disposed at tail ends of the compressed air heat dissipation holes, and a plurality of air heat dissipation jet orifices are evenly distributed on circumferences of the air heat dissipation nozzles.

A burner comprises: at least one mixing tube extending inside a fuel plenum and having an interior configured to be supplied with an air; and a plurality of fuel injection holes for injecting a fuel supplied to the fuel plenum into the interior of the at least one mixing tube. When the at least one mixing tube is viewed in an axial direction of the mixing tube, a central axis of each of the plurality of fuel injection holes is oblique in a same direction with respect to a circumferential direction of the mixing tube, to a radial direction of the mixing tube.

A nozzle assembly including an inner tube and an outer housing. The inner tube terminates at an outlet end and defines a first flow passage. The first flow passage directs first fluid flow to the outlet end in a primary flow direction. The outer housing includes a tubular side wall and an end wall. The tubular side wall defines a central axis. The end wall defines an exit orifice and an interior guide structure. The outlet end is axially aligned with the exit orifice. A second flow passage is established between the inner tube and the outer housing. The interior guide structure is configured and arranged relative to the outlet end to direct at least a portion of a second fluid flow from the second flow passage toward the outlet end in a direction initially opposite the primary flow direction for generating mixed fluid flow.

A liquid fuel cartridge for a gas turbine fuel nozzle includes a tube having an inlet end and an outlet end with one or more fuel exit orifices; and a homogenizer located within the tube, adjacent and up-stream of the outlet end. The homogenizer is formed by a substantially-cylindrical body open at opposite ends, and a first row of circumferentially-spaced flanges projecting radially outwardly from the substantially cylindrical body, with radially-outer edges of said flanges engaged with an interior surface of the tube thereby creating a plurality of apertures for a liquid fuel and water emulsion. The homogenizer body may also be provided with a plurality of circumferentially-spaced radially-oriented orifices to promote better mixing of the fuel/water emulsion.
