Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
161 words
A burner of liquid fuels atomized by the expansion of a compressed auxiliary fluid, said burner being composed of: a central conduit fed with auxiliary fluid, a first annular conduit, coaxial with said central conduit, fed with a liquid fuel, a multi-nozzle head comprising nozzles which open out into a combustion chamber and which are disposed along a frustum of a cone diverging towards said chamber, each of these nozzles comprising a mixing chamber into which opens a channel injecting auxiliary fluid communicating with said central conduit and at least one channel injecting liquid fuel communicating with said first annular conduit, which burner comprises, in addition, supplementary annular conduits, coaxial with said central conduit, each of these supplementary conduits being fed with an auxiliary liquid and being connected by at least one channel to each of the mixing chambers, so that each nozzle injects into the flame an atomized mixture of said liquid fuel and of at least one auxiliary liquid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
161 words
A burner of liquid fuels atomized by the expansion of a compressed auxiliary fluid, said burner being composed of: a central conduit fed with auxiliary fluid, a first annular conduit, coaxial with said central conduit, fed with a liquid fuel, a multi-nozzle head comprising nozzles which open out into a combustion chamber and which are disposed along a frustum of a cone diverging towards said chamber, each of these nozzles comprising a mixing chamber into which opens a channel injecting auxiliary fluid communicating with said central conduit and at least one channel injecting liquid fuel communicating with said first annular conduit, which burner comprises, in addition, supplementary annular conduits, coaxial with said central conduit, each of these supplementary conduits being fed with an auxiliary liquid and being connected by at least one channel to each of the mixing chambers, so that each nozzle injects into the flame an atomized mixture of said liquid fuel and of at least one auxiliary liquid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
56 words
A burner as claimed in claim 1, wherein each mixing chamber is divided into as many portions as there are annular conduits and the successive portions have a section which increases from the center of the burner to the periphery and are each connected respectively to one of said annular conduits by at least one channel.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
57 words
A burner as claimed in claim 1 comprising one supplementary annular conduit which is disposed about said first annular conduit and which is fed with a liquid belonging to the following group of liquids; liquid effluents, combustible or not, intended to be destroyed in the flame; auxiliary liquid fuels; water; aqueous solutions and suspensions containing a reagent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
76 words
A burner as claimed in claim 1, comprising in addition a ring, placed immediately to the rear of said multi-nozzle head, which ring comprises a central bore which communicates with said central channel and comprises, in addition, on each of its side faces, circular grooves of the same diameter concentric with said central bore, which are connected in two's by axial bores, each pair of grooves connected together forming part of one of said annular conduits.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
77 words
A burner as claimed in claim 4, of which each ring comprises a central bore and two pairs of concentric grooves, which burner is placed at the end of a pipe which comprises three channels disposed at the three apices of an equilateral triangle, one of these channels communicating with said central bore and each of the other two channels with one of the two grooves located on the face of said ring opposite the multinozzle head.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
55 words
A burner as claimed in claim 1, wherein said multi-nozzle head is pierced with a central channel, of small diameter, which communicates with said central conduit and which opens out at the end of the burner so that the terminal face of the nose of the burner is swept by a jet of auxiliary fluid.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
33 words
A burner as claimed in claim 6, wherein said central channel is divided into a plurality of channels with diverge towards the nose of the burner and open out at the end thereof.
