Abstract
Abstract A burner having feed ducts for homogeneous or heterogeneous reactants and a burner cooling chamber placed peripherally in the area of a burner head, the burner including, coolant feed and discharge ducts in communication with the burner cooling chamber, a burner lance positionable in a recess in the burner cooling chamber, and a lance for accommodating the feed of the reactants as far as the burner orifice wherein the burner cooling chamber extends over the burner orifice in a downstream direction, starting from a downstream side of the burner orifice, and tapers conically to a smaller cross section so as to form a truncated conical burner prechamber, open on a downstream side thereof.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A burner which includes feed pipes for homogeneous or heterogenous reactants, comprising: a peripherally extending cooling chamber located near a burner head portion of said burner; at least one coolant feed pipe and coolant drain pipe connected to said cooling chamber wherein said cooling chamber surrounds an orifice portion of said burner that extends in a downstream direction, wherein side portions of said cooling chamber are inclined in a downstream direction along a longitudinal axis of the burner so as to form an inwardly tapered burner prechamber wherein a base portion of said burner prechamber lies in the plane of said orifice portion and wherein an area of said burner prechamber opposite said base portion forms an opening having a cross-section which is more narrow than that formed at said base portion of said burner prechamber.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
A burner which includes feed pipes for homogeneous or heterogenous reactants, comprising: a peripherally extending cooling chamber located near a burner head portion of said burner; at least one coolant feed pipe and coolant drain pipe connected to said cooling chamber wherein said cooling chamber surrounds an orifice portion of said burner that extends in a downstream direction, wherein side portions of said cooling chamber are inclined in a downstream direction along a longitudinal axis of the burner so as to form an inwardly tapered burner prechamber wherein a base portion of said burner prechamber lies in the plane of said orifice portion and wherein an area of said burner prechamber opposite said base portion forms an opening having a cross-section which is more narrow than that formed at said base portion of said burner prechamber.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
155 words
A burner according to claim 1, further comprising a central pipe through which a flow of a first reactant is axially carried to said orifice portion for discharge therefrom into said burner prechamber; and an annular pipe surrounding said central pipe for coaxially carrying a flow of a second reactant for being discharged into the orifice portion wherein the pattern of discharge of the second reactant is of a larger average diameter upon being discharged than a diameter dimension of said orifice portion of said burner, and further comprising a circular pipe surrounding said annular pipe for coaxially carrying a third reactant, said circular pipe having a plurality of discharge bores formed therein so as to form a circle of discharge bores surrounding said annular pipe such that the discharge from said discharge bores is of a greater average diameter than the average diameter of the discharge of said second reactant from said annular pipe.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
A burner according to claim 1, wherein a ratio of the diameter of the cross-section of said burner prechamber located adjacent the orifice portion of the burner to the diameter of a smallest open cross-section of the burner prechamber is between 3:1 to 1.5:1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
A burner according to claim 1, further comprising a jacket duct surrounding said circular pipe, and wherein said jacket duct, said annular pipe and said central pipe form a lance.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
62 words
A burner according to claim 2, further comprising a jacket duct wherein said central pipe is surrounded by said jacket duct and said orifice portion of said burner is formed at one end of said jacket duct such that an end wall of said central pipe is located at a predetermined distance from an upstream side of said orifice of said burner.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
A burner according to claim 2, wherein said orifice portion of said burner and said discharge bores of said circular pipe are located in the same axial plane of said burner.
