There is provided a gas burner that comprises a surface. The surface forms a burner deck comprising burner deck portions and a separation surface. The burner deck portions have holes. The separation surface is arranged to separate the burner deck portions from each other. Less than 5.0% of a surface area of the burner deck is formed by a combined surface area of the holes. The burner deck portions are adapted to define reaction zones extending over the burner deck portions. The holes are adapted to provide gas to be combusted in the reaction zones. The burner deck portions are arranged relative to each other to prevent the reaction zones from extending over the separation surface.

A flameless thermal oxidizer (FTO) includes at least one baffle constructed and arranged in a reaction chamber of the FTO to coact with a diptube of the FTO to radially expand a resulting “bubble” or reaction envelope from the diptube outward into a porous matrix of the FTO. A related method is also provided.

This is an upright heater igniting combustible gas to induce a naturally aspirated flame within a glass tube. Air channels producing the naturally aspirated flame enters the glass tube in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the flame thus creating a twirling flame. Heat waves generated by the twirling flame within a glass tube rises to a heat concentrator and projected onto a parabolic heat shield thus reflecting the heat wave radially downward and outward.

A multi-stage flame acceleration device and method for a gas-fuel engine are provided. The device includes a pressing piece, an upper chamber, a spark plug, a fuel ejector, a cooling device, and a flame acceleration nozzle. The spark plug and the fuel ejector are mounted in the upper chamber. The pressing piece is sleeved on an upper part of the upper chamber, and the device is wholly and fixedly connected to a cylinder head through a step groove of the upper chamber. A nozzle sealing ring, the flame acceleration nozzle, and a cylinder head sealing ring are mounted at a bottom of the upper chamber from top to bottom in sequence. Annular obstacles formed by annular plates are arranged in a chamber of the flame acceleration nozzle. In the method, a fuel is ejected in the chamber of the flame acceleration nozzle to obtain a homogeneous gas mixture.

A cartridge tip includes a main body having an outer annular wall and an inner core each extending between a respective upstream end and a respective downstream end. The inner core is radially spaced apart from the outer annular wall such that an annular air passage is defined at least partially between the outer annular wall and the inner core. A pilot fuel circuit extends between a pilot inlet defined in the upstream end of the inner core and a pilot outlet defined in a downstream end of the inner core. The pilot fuel circuit extends at least partially along an axial centerline of the cartridge tip. A main fuel circuit extends between a main inlet in the upstream end of the inner core and a plurality of main outlets circumferentially spaced apart from one another and disposed upstream from the from the pilot outlet.

A combustor nozzle, a combustor, and a gas turbine including the same are provided. The combustor nozzle includes a nozzle module. The nozzle module includes a central tube having an air flow path, through which air flows from a front-to-rear direction, and an opening hole at a rear end thereof, a shroud into which at least a part of the central tube is inserted, and having an air inlet at a front end thereof, wherein a mixing flow path is formed between the shroud and the central tube so that the air and injected fuel flow therethrough, and a plurality of cooling channels, each of the plurality of cooling channels extending rearward from an inlet communicating with the air flow path to an outlet communicating with the mixing flow path while passing through a sidewall portion of the central tube.

A turbine engine and associated methods for a combustor as shown and described. The turbine engine including a combustor with a combustor liner having dilution openings and a geometry that changes along an axial direction. The combustor further having a baffle surrounding a combustor liner defining a combustion chamber of the combustor. A method for controlling nitrogen oxides within the combustor, including injecting compressed air into the annular combustion chamber through any of the dilution openings described herein.
