Abstract:
A multi-functional fuel nozzle (10) for a combustion turbine engine is provided. An annular fuel-injecting lance (12) may include a first fluid circuit (14) and a second fluid circuit (16). One of the first and second fluid circuits during a liquid fuel operating mode of the combustion turbine engine may convey a liquid fuel. The other of the first and second fluid circuits may convey a selectable non-fuel fluid. An atomizer (30) is disposed at the downstream end of the lance. The atomizer may have a first ejection orifice (32) responsive to the first fluid circuit to form a first atomized ejection cone (34), and a second ejection orifice (36) responsive to the second fluid circuit to form a second atomized ejection cone (38). The first and second ejection cones (34, 38) formed with the atomizer may be concentric cones that intersect with one another over a predefined angular range.

Multiple water injecttion ports (42) are formed, at an interval in the circumferential direction, on the periphery of the fuel injection port (41) at the tip (35s) of the nozzle (25), and the water injection ports (42) are unevenly formed in the circumferential direction.
Abstract:
Industrial furnace (1) which can be used for example for treating semi-finished and siderurgical products, metal and inorganic materials, comprising a) a hot chamber (3) in which a combustion takes place and the hot gases generated by the combustion come in direct contact with the materials to be treated (p) in the furnace itself; B) a combustion stabilising system in turn comprising b1) an injection system in turn comprising at least a mixer (11) arranged to mix a fuel and a diluent before injecting them into the hot chamber (3). The diluent has the effect of reducing the amount of nitrogen oxides in the combustion products. It considerably reduces the consumption of required diluent and the Nox emissions in the fumes.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the method for burning lump material is in at least one shaft comprising a pre-heating zone, a burning zone and a cooling zone, wherein coal having a swelling index > 1 is supplied together with a transport medium via burner lances which have burner tips, via which the coal exits into the shaft together with the transport medium, wherein the temperature of the coal in the burner lances is kept below a temperature value at which melt phases of the coal form. Here, use is made of a transport medium for transporting the coal which transport medium forms a low-oxygen atmosphere in the shaft in the region immediately adjoining the burner tips, in order to delay the ignition of the coal following the exiting from the burner lance.
