Abstract: A low pressure atomizer (10) is used for the atomization of liquids, such as atomization of fuels found in industrial burners. An atomizer body (11) has an atomizing chamber (16, 18) therein and an annular liquid conduit (14) having an annular diffusion member (15) therein. The diffusion member (15) is shaped to direct liquid passing thereby and into the atomizing chamber (16, 18) and forces the liquid to enter the chamber adjacent the walls thereof. The atomizer body (11) has a first annular gas conduit (22) and a tangential gas port (26) connected between the annular gas conduit (22) and the liquid conduit (14) so that the gas impinges tangentially against the liquid to shear and rotate the liquid entering the atomization chamber (16). A second annular gas conduit (25) has an angled open (19) into the atomizing chamber (18) to further shear the liquid and gas mixture in the atomizer chamber (18) so that a low pressure atomizer atomizes a liquid with low pressure gas streams. A plurality of tangential gas ports (26) connect the gas conduit (22) to the atomizing chamber (16) with the tangential ports being generally perpendicular to the gas conduit (22).

Abstract: The disclosed combustor apparatus (10) provides for two independent flow streams, one for oxidizer (70) and one for fuel (90). The adjustable control capability permits various flame configurations and reproducible combustion rates at different oxidizer/gaseous fuel flow rates. The apparatus (10) includes an oxidizer supply which is separated into a primary oxidizer path (35) and a secondary oxidizer path (40), the flow rate in each of these paths being regulated. The primary oxidizer path (35) and the secondary oxidizer path (40) are combined in an oxidizer channel (70) within a burner block (15) of the burner assembly prior to exiting the burner assembly (10). The burner apparatus also includes a gaseous fuel path (45) and a secondary gaseous fuel path (50).

Abstract: A burner apparatus and method for the combustion of a fuel and an oxidizer includes a burner block (7) having a fuel line (1) for feeding fuel to a fuel port opening (12) into a combustion chamber and a plurality of oxidizer lines (32, 33, 34) positioned around the fuel line (1) for feeding an oxidizer to oxidizer ports (17, 18, 19, 20) to the combustion chamber for combustion with the fuel from the fuel port (12). The oxidizer lines and ports (13, 14, 15, 16 and 17, 18, 19, 20) are spaced around the fuel port (12) so that controlling the oxidizer is used to change the position and shape of the flame in the combustion chamber. Oxidizer control valves (36, 37, 38, 39) vary the amount of oxidizer fed through the oxidizer line so that the oxidizer control valves (36, 37, 38, 39) for each set of oxidizer lines are spaced around the fuel port (12) to allow both the position and shape of the burner flame to be controlled.

Abstract: A heated crucible apparatus (10) allows the adjustment of a thermal profile within a combustion chamber (12) surrounding the crucible (15) by introducing a sub-stoichiometric or a super-stoichiometric mixture of fuel and oxidant into the combustion chamber (12) and varying the oxidant flow for sub-stoichiometric or fuel flow for super-stoichiometric mixture downstream of the initial combustion to control the release of heat in defined areas within the combustion chamber (12). The apparatus includes an oxidant (54) and fuel (25) supply at the primary injection point (32) followed by secondary injection of the remaining oxidant supply at specific intervals to achieve the desired thermal profile. An oxidant preheating heat exchanger (51) and a cooling heat exchanger (49) for material exiting the crucible may be provided.
