Abstract: A variable firing rate fuel burner has a tubular body configuration defined by a central pilot tube coaxially circumscribed by intermediate and outer firing tubes. A pilot fuel-air mixture is flowed through the pilot tube and ignited to maintain a pilot flame at the open outlet end of the burner body. During firing of the burner, separate fuel-air mixtures are flowed through an intermediate annulus between the intermediate firing tube and the pilot tube, and an outer annulus between the intermediate firing tube and the outer firing tube. As these fuel-air mixtures exit the burner body they are ignited by the pilot flame, with the fuel-air mixture exiting the outer annulus serving as a flame shaping mechanism to provide the overall burner flame with a controlled, elongated shape. By using two separate fuel-air mixture flows surrounding the pilot fuel-air mixture flow, the firing rate of the burner may be easily modulated, and the burner may be simultaneously operated with two different types of fuel.

Abstract: A NOx reduction burner system and process. Fuel modification and fuel rich reactor zone gases are brought together with products from a fuel lean reactor zone in a low temperature burnout and NOx reduction reactor zone. The fuel modification fuel rich reactor stabilizes combustion through recirculation of hot gases to the reactants. Nitrogenous species decay reactions in the fuel rich zone controls the production of NOx. The nitrogenous species from the fuel rich zone and the NOx from the fuel lean zone then react in the burnout zone at an optimal temperature and nitrogenous species mix where NOx is minimized. Temperature in all zones, and in particular the burnout zone, can be controlled by furnace gas entrainment, induced flue gas recirculation, forced flue gas recirculation and active cooling by radiative and/or convective heat transfer. NOx can be even further reduced by introducing ammonia, or a like amine species, into the low temperature burnout zone.

Abstract: In furnaces for producing high purity fused silica glass boules, glass particles have a tendency to build-up adjacent the burner hole rim. It was discovered that unburned furnace gases containing silica particles where re-circulated in the furnace close to the burner hole rim and reacted with the oxygen of infiltrated air adjacent the burner hole, and thus deposited such particles in the form of a glassy build-up about the rim of the burner hole. In order to eliminate the source of oxygen adjacent the burner hole rim, a curtain of an inert gas is caused to flow through the burner hole between the sidewalls of the burner hole and the flame of the burner. Accordingly, the curtain of inert gas inhibits the combustion of the unburned hydrogen and carbon monoxide furnace gases adjacent the exit rim of the burner hole and thereby minimizes glass build-up about the burner hole rim.
