Patent number: 10451271Abstract: The pre-mix burner assembly includes a jet pump comprising a combustion air tube, a flue gas inlet, and a suction chamber. The combustion air tube has an inlet and a tapered nozzle, and it is connected to a combustion gas fan. The flue gas inlet is connected to the suction chamber and the furnace chamber or other flue gas source. The suction chamber surrounds the combustion air tube, and it has a jet pump nozzle with a discharge. The combustion air exiting the combustion air nozzle creates a negative pressure in the suction chamber and draws flue gas into the suction chamber. There is a burner housing positioned downstream of the jet pump discharge. There is a fuel gas inlet connected to a mixing tube in the burner housing, and a burner block connected to the outlet of the burner housing.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: October 22, 2019Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Curtis L. Taylor, Bradley D. Patterson, Marek Scholler, Jayson Perdue

Patent number: 10371377Abstract: A burner assembly combines oxygen and fuel to produce a flame. The burner assembly includes an oxygen supply tube adapted to receive a stream of oxygen and a solid fuel conduit arranged to extend through the oxygen tube to convey a stream of fluidized, pulverized, solid fuel into a flame chamber. Oxygen flowing through the oxygen supply tube passes generally tangentially through a first set of oxygen-injection holes formed in the solid fuel conduit and off-tangentially from a second set of oxygen-injection holes formed in the solid fuel conduit and then mixes with fluidized, pulverized, solid fuel passing through the solid fuel conduit to create an oxygen-fuel mixture in a downstream portion of the solid fuel conduit. This mixture is discharged into a flame chamber and ignited in the flame chamber to produce a flame.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2017Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Curtis Taylor, Brad Patterson, Jayson Perdue

Patent number: 9851099Abstract: According to the present disclosure, a flat-flame nozzle is provided for producing a flat flame in a flame chamber included in a burner assembly. The flat-flame nozzle is configured to conduct fuel from a fuel supply to an ignition zone in the flame chamber. In some illustrative embodiments, the flat-flame nozzle is also configured to conduct oxygen from an oxygen supply to the ignition zone to produce a combustible oxygen-fuel mixture in the flame chamber. In illustrative embodiments, a removable first plate-separation border frame is positioned to lie between a first lower plate and a companion first upper plate. This border frame is configured to cooperate with those plates to form in the flat-flame nozzle a fuel-discharge outlet and a fuel-transport passageway communicating with the fuel-discharge outlet.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2013Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Curtis L. Taylor, Brad Patterson, Tracy Fine, Jayson Perdue

Patent number: 9677758Abstract: A gaseous fuel-oxygen burner is described herein. One device includes a flame zone in which combustion of gaseous fuel and oxygen occurs to form a flame, a coaxial gaseous fuel jet configured to provide the flame zone with gaseous fuel, and a coaxial oxygen jet configured to provide the flame zone with oxygen, wherein the coaxial gaseous fuel jet and the coaxial oxygen jet are separate such that the gaseous fuel from the coaxial gaseous fuel jet and the oxygen from the coaxial oxygen jet do not mix before entering the flame zone.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2013Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Curtis Taylor, Christopher S. Eldridge, Brad Patterson, Jayson Perdue, William R. Berkenbush
