Burner Assembly and Method of Operating Same
Abstract
The present invention refers to a burner arrangement for burning combustible gas supplied, for example, by a blower ( 1 ), in which case the burner arrangement has at least one gas supply pipe ( 2 ) for supplying the gas to be burned, in which case the burner arrangement comprises a nozzle arrangement ( 3 ) placed downstream from the gas supply pipe ( 2 ) in an intended flow direction (S) of the gas, in which case the nozzle arrangement ( 3 ) has one or several gas outlet openings ( 5 ) through which the gas to be burned can flow out from the nozzle arrangement ( 3 ) before it is burned, and in which case the gas outlet opening(s) ( 5 ) has/have a total gas outlet area. According to the invention, it is provided for the burner arrangement to comprise means used to change the total gas outlet area of the nozzle arrangement ( 3 ) within defined limits so the flow speed of the gas flowing out of the gas outlet opening(s) ( 5 ) can be regulated. Furthermore, a method for operating a corresponding burner arrangement is suggested, characterized as a result of this that the total gas outlet area of the nozzle arrangement ( 3 ) is adjusted in such a way while the burner arrangement is operating that the flow speed of the gas flowing out through the gas outlet opening(s) ( 5 ) always stays within defined limits.
