Abstract: A burner nozzle for burning petroleum products. The burner nozzle includes a tube portion with a burner nozzle insert disposed therein. A nut is threadingly engaged with the tube portion to hold the insert in place. The insert has a substantially conical nozzle portion with an inlet portion extending substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the nozzle portion. The inlet portion defines a plurality of inlet ports therethrough. The inlet ports are angled with respect to the longitudinal axis and have an outlet end adjacent to an inner surface of the nozzle portion.

Abstract: A burner nozzle for burning petroleum products. The burner nozzle includes a fluid conduit with an air jacket disposed therearound such that a dead air space is defined therebetween to prevent fluid leakage from entering the air jacket. The burner nozzle comprises a replaceable air jetting assembly which provides an annular stream of air, either cylindrical or conical in configuration, which impinges the fluid stream exiting the nozzle for atomization thereof. The jetting assembly includes a replaceable and interchangeable jetting insert. A swirl chamber is provided in the fluid conduit to impart a swirling motion to fluid flowing therethrough. The swirl chamber is clamped in position on opposite sides thereof so that it is always in compression, thus allowing use of non-weldable materials. One embodiment has a variable air jetting orifice.

Abstract: A burn nozzle for mixing petroleum products to be burned and air in which air is injected into the petroleum stream leaving a nozzle from an air can which is spaced from the nozzle and its petroleum product supply line such that any leakage from the oil supply line is into a space between the line and the air can and the petroleum products cannot be forced under pressure into the air can. The air can may be provided with a slip joint to accommodate unequal heating of the air can. The free end of the oil conduit and its outlet chamber may be smaller in diameter than the oil can and be threaded to the remainder of the oil conduit to permit its ready removal and replacement.
