Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9119942A1] A burner head (1), suitable for use in a furnace, has an array or matrix of combustion air apertures divided into three (outer, middle and inner) aperture rings (6, 7, 8). Gaseous fuel is conveyed down central fuel pipe (9) which flows through gallery (G) to individual broached apertures (6a, 7a, 8a) of aperture rings (6, 7, 8), which fuel mixes with combustion air being drawn up through the centre of said apertures. The aperture matrix is configured to eliminate anomaleous 'hot spots' which could accelerate corrosion as well as equalising flow distribution through the gallery (G) to the apertures (6a, 7a, 8a).
