Burner structure
Specifications
Burner ranting from 2-145Mw
NOx<15ppm @ 3% O2
Nature gas, fuel gas and special gas mixer
Adjustable flame share & emission
The burner applied air staging, fuel staging, and internal flue gas recirculation to minimize NOx emissions. The multi-nozzle design enables fuel staging, which helps reduce NOx formation by lowering local flame temperatures.
The primary air forms a strong central recirculation zone directly downstream of the swirler, contributing to burner stability across the entire combustion range. The external annulus air zone uses adjustable vortices for flame shaping, optimizing flame characteristics and emission levels.
The swirler generates a robust recirculation zone that aids in NOx reduction. This zone, as a source of flue gas, causes the fuel jet to entrain gases locally. Along with the proprietary gas nozzle design, this mechanism helps reduce thermal NOx formation.
