Abstract (en)

The present invention relates to a swirler arrangement (10; 10a) of a burner (52), in particular of a gas turbine engine (14), comprising at least two wings (16, 18; 16a, 18a), wherein a thread-like flow channel (20) is arranged between the at least two wings (16, 18; 16a, 18a), wherein the flow channel (20) is allowing a flow medium (22) to travel along the flow channel (20) in a flow direction (24, 24') and wherein the flow medium (22) is set into a thread-like motion by the flow channel (20) when flowing through the flow channel (20) and wherein each wing (16, 18; 16a, 18a) of the at least two wings (16, 18; 16a, 18a) comprise an upstream part (26) and a downstream part (28; 28a).To increase the flashback resistance of the burner (52) it is proposed that the downstream part (28; 28a) comprises at least one opening (30; 30a) for injecting fuel (32) into the flow medium (22) while traveling the flow channel (20).
