Three-point fixing arrangement of ignition electrodes of a burner
View Patent ↗A burner having two ignition electrodes and a bracket is provided. The bracket is arranged on the outer surface of the burner and the ignition electrodes are held, at in each case three points of their periphery, in a fixed position using the bracket. A gas turbine with the burner is also provided.
1. A burner, comprising:
two ignition electrodes, a portion of each of said ignition electrodes surrounded by an individual ceramic shroud; and
a bracket holding each of said individual ceramic shrouds between a lower support clamp and an upper fixing clamp, said lower support clamp contacting a periphery of each of said individual ceramic shrouds at one point and said upper fixing clamp contacting the periphery of each of said individual ceramic shrouds at two further points, the bracket being fastened to an outer surface of the burner with two fastening elements.
2. The burner as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the three points are distributed around the periphery of the ignition electrode so that an angle between each set of two of the three points is 120°.
3. The burner as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two ignition electrodes are supported in the bracket to allow for an axial movement.
4. The burner as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each ignition electrode is supported radially sprung in the bracket.
5. The burner as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bracket comprises a clamp with radial springing.
6. The burner as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the fastening elements are screws.
7. A gas turbine, comprising:
a burner, comprising:
two ignition electrodes, a portion of each of said ignition electrodes surrounded by an individual ceramic shroud; and
a bracket holding each of said individual ceramic shrouds between a lower support clamp and an upper fixing clamp, said lower support clamp contacting a periphery of each of said individual ceramic shrouds at one point and said upper fixing clamp contacting the periphery of each of said individual ceramic shrouds at two further points, the bracket being fastened to an outer surface of the burner with two fastening elements.
8. The gas turbine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the three points are distributed around the periphery of the ignition electrode so that an angle between each set of two of the three points is 120°.
9. The gas turbine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the two ignition electrodes are supported in the bracket to allow for an axial movement.
10. The gas turbine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein each ignition electrode is supported radially sprung in the bracket.
11. The gas turbine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the bracket comprises a clamp with radial springing.
12. The gas turbine as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the fastening elements are screws.
