  • Burner of a gas turbine
    Patent number: 9435532
    Abstract: The burner of a gas turbine includes two or more part cone shells arranged offset with respect to one another and defining a cone shaped chamber with longitudinal tangential slots for feeding air therein. A lance carrying a liquid fuel nozzle arranged centrally in the cone shaped chamber is also provided. A portion of the nozzle facing the cone shaped chamber is divergent in shape. A diffuser angle (?) between the wall of the nozzle and a longitudinal axis of the cone shaped chamber is less than 5°. A diverging portion of the nozzle has a diffuser length to nozzle diameter ratio comprised between 2-6. The nozzle diameter is the smaller diameter of the diverging portion.
