Abstract
Abstract A burner for burning liquid or gaseous fuels, especially heavy heating oil. A central fuel lance is surrounded by two annular channels that supply primary and secondary combustion air. The annular channels are surrounded by several outer fuel lances that are distributed along the arc of a circle and can optionally be displaced axially and by air nozzles that convey tertiary combustion air. The object is to burn fuel at a low output of pollutants in systems with a narrow combustion space. The burner has an annular flue-gas channel between the outer annular channel and the air nozzles. The burner opens into a chamber that is jacketed in ceramic and that a heat exchanger (flame tube) extends out of. Other nozzles that convey a component of the flow of tertiary air are mounted in the wall of the chamber.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
151 words
A burner arrangement comprising: a chamber means having a ceramic jacket; a central fuel lance surrounded by means forming two annular channels supplying primary and secondary combustion air mounted in one end of said chamber means; a plurality of outer fuel lances mounted in said one end of said chamber means and distributed along an arc of a circle and surrounding said annular channels, means mounting said outer fuel lances for displacing axially; first air nozzles mounted in said one end of said chamber means for conveying tertiary combustion air; means forming an annular flue-gas channel in said one end of said chamber means between one of said annular channels and said air nozzles; heat exchanger means connected to an opposite end of said chamber means; second nozzles mounted in a wall of said chamber means downstream of said first air nozzles and conveying a component of the tertiary air flow.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein the fuel to be burned is distributed between said central fuel lance and said outer fuel lances.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said outer fuel lances have nozzle bores pointing toward interior of said chamber means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
76 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said first air nozzles are distributed along an arc of a circle having a diameter which is less than the diameter of said arc of the circle along which said outer fuel lances are distributed, said second nozzles having outlets distributed along an arc of a circle with diameter greater than the diameter of said arc of the circle along which said outer fuel lances are distributed.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
22 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 1 including backup ring means abutting against an inner wall surface of said chamber means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
22 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 5, wherein said backup ring means is positioned at an end of said chamber means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 5, wherein said second nozzles are positioned on a side of said backup ring means facing said fuel lances.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
41 words
A burner arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said chamber means has a longitudinal axis, said first nozzles and said second nozzles having emerging jets of air oriented at a spatial angle to said longitudinal axis of said chamber means.
