Abstract: The invention relates to devices and methods for the assisted internal spraying of a combustible liquid, wherein the combustible liquid is fed into a combustion area through a passage which ends in an outlet opening and into which spray gas is fed via a plurality of channels, the passage including a narrow portion and a wider but relatively short pre-spray chamber downstream from the narrow portion, the channels including small-diameter end sections tangentially leading into the narrow portion of the passage near the input opening of the chamber such that the spray gas impacts the combustible liquid and imparts a helical movement to the combustible liquid.
