Abstract: Device in a burner for gas turbines, comprising a cylindrical housing (10) and a fuel inlet tube (16) arranged centrally within said housing, said housing (10) and fuel inlet tube (16) mutually defining an annular chamber (28). The annular chamber (28) extending into an extended diameter combustion chamber (18), having means (25) for supplying combustion air to said annular chamber (28). Radial flow swirlers (14) are provided for creating a rotational movement of the combustion air in said annular chamber. The housing (10) has a downstream restriction (20) in front of the free end of the centrally located fuel inlet tube (16), at the entrance of the combustion chamber (18), for creating a rich combustion spinning tubular swirl dominated flow of a mixture of air and fuel, with a recirculation central core, said tubular spinning flow extending into the combustion chamber (18).

Abstract: A gas burner includes a tubular shaped housing having a proximal end and a distal end, the housing tapering inwardly to an outlet at the distal end to form a truncated cone. A gas supply tube is disposed longitudinally centrally within the housing and extends from the proximal end to a point adjacent the distal end in a combustion zone and terminates in a closed end wall, the supply tube and the housing defining therebetween an annular space for supply of air to the combustion zone at a pressure slightly above atmospheric. A vortex generator is disposed upstream of the distal end of the housing and includes a plurality of baffle flights extending longitudinally within the housing a radially from the gas supply tube to the inner wall of the housing, thereby supporting the gas supply tube.
