Abstract: A burner assembly is provided. The burner assembly includes a support housing with a supply manifold, the supply manifold includes a fuel passage system, and fuel nozzles extending from the supply manifold and being supplied with fuel through the fuel passage system of the supply manifold. The supply manifold is sandwiched using at least two subparts.

Abstract: A burner arrangement is provided. The burner arrangement includes a support and at least two fuel nozzles attached to the support in the direction of flow, with each fuel nozzle including a support-side section which includes a contact surface on the support side with which it rests on a supporting surface of the support, with at least two fuel nozzle tips embodied in one piece extending out from the support-side section in the direction of flow and the support-side contact surface including at least two extension parts projecting in the direction of the support, with the extension parts each embodying a channel through which fuel is fed in each case to the fuel nozzle tips through passages which are arranged in the support-side contact surface of the support-side section.

Abstract: A fuel nozzle for imparting swirl to a fuel/fuel-air mixture is provided. The fuel nozzle includes a holding unit and a nozzle insert, wherein the holding unit and the nozzle insert form a flow path and subsequently a swirl chamber, wherein the nozzle insert includes an inlet start and an inlet end. The inlet start and the inlet end are bent in a substantially circular manner such that an unbroken circle is formed, such that a fuel flowing into the swirl chamber has imparted to it a radially inwardly directed circular, in particular spiral movement. A burner and a gas turbine are also provided.

Abstract: A burner incorporating a pilot cone and a mounting insert is provided. The pilot cone is constructed as a pilot cone assembly which is decoupled from the mounting insert. Further, an operating method for increasing the service life of a burner which incorporates a pilot cone assembly and a mounting insert is provided. The pilot cone assembly has a cone side and incorporates at least one further side where the further side is arranged to be essentially parallel to one of the sides of the mounting insert and spaced apart from it, so that between the further side and the side of the mounting insert there is a defined gap. In an operation of the burner, the gap is significantly reduced by the thermal expansion in at least at one point of contact between the further side and the side of the mounting insert. Finally, an assembly method is provided.

Abstract: A burner for a gas turbine including a main burner and a pilot burner is provided. The main burner has a supporting structure, a heat shield and a holder for the heat shield, and wherein the holder is at least partially located within the supporting structure and the heat shield is at least partially located within the holder. The heat shield is fastened to the holder by a force-fit and/or a frictional connection.
