Abstract: The burner comprises a tap-hole block (1), a burner body (C) substantially comprised of a tubular element (2), at least one injection blowpipe (3) extending through the burner body and into the cavity (P) of the tap-hole block (1), and unlockable quick mounting means (22, 20; 16, 23; 26, 28) for mounting the injection blowpipe (3) to the tubular element (2) and the tubular element (2) to the tape-hole block (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a process for spraying a product, especially a liquid fuel, into a working space which is external to the device. The device includes a nozzle for prespraying the liquid fuel into a confinement chamber and an outlet for ejection of a presprayed mixture into the working space. An additional pipe is provided for ejection of a gaseous spraying stream into the presprayed mixture inside the working space, at the outlet which ejects the presprayed mixture. The invention is particularly applicable to burners for glass melting furnaces.

Abstract: The burner comprises a tap-hole block (1), a burner body (C) substantially comprised of a tubular element (2), at least one injection blowpipe (3) extending through the burner body and into the cavity (P) of the tap-hole block (1), and unlockable quick mounting means (22, 20, 16, 23, 26, 28) for mounting the injection blowpipe (3) to the tubular elements (2) and the tubular element (2) to the tap-hole block (1). Application particularly to the oxicombustion in glass furnaces.

Abstract: An oxyburner (1) is associated with an opening (3) comprising a through passage (2) comprising a substantially cylindrical inlet region (5) receiving the downstream end of the oxyburner (1) and a substantially cylindrical outlet region (4) of a diameter D.sub.s and a length L.sub.s, the ratio D.sub.s /D.sub.e being comprised between 1.5 and 2.5 and the ratio L.sub.s /(D.sub.s -D.sub.e) comprised between 2 and 7. The speed of ejection of the oxygenated combustible gas is greater than 5 meters/second and the speed of ejection of the combustible gas is greater than the speed of the combustion-supporting gas.

Abstract: The oxygen/fuel burner contains at least one first tubular component (2) conveying the oxidant and at least one second tubular component (3), for injecting the fuel into the oxidant flow,arrangd asymmetrically with respect to the first (2) so that the mixing region upstream of the flame contains a part where the ratio of the oxidant to the fuel is less than the soichiometric value.

Abstract: To heat a thermic enclosure, flames are generated in a burner having a plurality of injectors, from an oxy-combustible mixture, the flames extending in different directions and having different power and/or oxidizing reducing capacity. Application for example to the heating of furnaces or metallurgical ladles or glassware furnaces.

Abstract: A process and installation for heating a channel in which flows a mass of molten glass toward one or more forming machines. The channel includes a vault which carries at least one group of oxyfuel burners connected to a source of oxygen and to a source of fuel gas, these burners being so oriented as to produce curtains of flames directed towards the longitudinal marginal zones of the surface of the stream of molten glass.

Abstract: This burner is so designed as to be capable of operating in a stable manner with no risk of explosion with pure oxygen or air highly enriched with oxygen as the reactant. In one embodiment, a stream of oxygen is delivered through a central tube 4A which terminates in a divergent annular diffuser 30. A mixture of air and pulverized coal is delivered in an intermediate ring 15 around this diffuser and an annular stream of whirling oxygen is delivered in an outer ring 16. Application in indirect heating furnaces, furnaces in which slag exists and cement-making furnaces and in cases where special atmospheres (for example reducing atmospheres) are desired.
