(54) BURNER FOR A SEQUENTIAL COMBUSTION CHAMBER


(57) A streamlined body (22) having two lateral surfaces that are arranged essentially parallel to a main-flow direction with a central plane therebetween, wherein the lateral surfaces are joined to one another at upstream sides of the lateral surfaces to form a leading edge of the body and are joined at downstream sides of the lateral surfaces to form a trailing edge (24) of the body,
the streamlined body (22) extending perpendicularly to the main-flow direction and along a first transverse direction, and having a cross-section perpendicular to the first transverse direction that is shaped as a streamlined profile, and being provided with a mixing structure and with at least one fuel nozzle located at the trailing edge,
wherein the mixing structure is provided in form of a plurality of lobes located at the trailing edge (24) of the body, wherein each lobe extends substantially perpendicular to said central plane in a second transverse direction or a third transverse directions, wherein the second and third transverse directions run oppositely to one another, wherein the lobe side walls comprise straight sections such that a lobing trailing edge (24) is provided which comprises straight sections.
