Abstract:
This invention relates to a premix burner for operating a heat generator, the burner at least having a swirl generator, a mixing section downstream of the swirl generator and a transition piece for transferring the swirl flow from the swirl generator into the mixing section. The invention further refers to a transition piece for such a premix burner. The transition piece includes an inlet, connected to the swirl generator, an outlet, connected to the mixing tube, and a continuing flow limiting interior contour between said inlet and said outlet, wherein at least in an inlet section said interior contour is curved radially inwards towards the inner diameter of the mixing tube and wherein at the outlet the interior contour is flush with an interior flow limiting contour of the mixing tube.
Abstract:
The burner includes a swirl chamber. The swirl chamber has a substantially conical shape defining a central axis. The swirl chamber is defined by a plurality of wall elements. A combination of nozzles at the pressure, suction side and trailing edge of the wall element are placed for fuel injection. The wall elements define slots between each other. The slots have different widths (w) in consecutive planes in the axial direction, wherein said planes are perpendicular to the central axis.
