  • Premix burner
    Patent number: 7424804
    Abstract: A premix burner has a swirl generator and two perforated through flow elements are arranged at a defined distance from one another in the inflow region for the combustion air. The through flow elements are preferably arranged in such a way that substantially the entire combustion airstream has to flow through the through flow elements. The degree of perforation of the through flow elements and the distance between these elements are preferably adapted to one another in such a way that a reflection free condition for combustion pulsation frequencies which may be expected is present at the exit from the burner into the combustion chamber.
