Combustion burner
View Patent ↗A combustion burner 10 A according to one embodiment of the present invention includes: a fuel nozzle 110 ; a burner tube 120 forming the air passage 111 between the burner tube 120 and the fuel nozzle 110 ; swirler vanes (swirler vanes) 130 arranged in a plurality of positions in the circumferential direction on the external circumferential surface of the fuel nozzle 110 , each extending along the axial direction of the fuel nozzle 110 , and gradually curving from upstream toward downstream; and a liquid fuel injecting hole 133 A from which a liquid fuel is injected to a surface of each of the swirler vanes 130 . The combustion burner 10 A also includes multi-purpose injecting holes 11 - 1 to 11 - 3 as a cooling unit that cools a part of a vane pressure surface 132 a of the swirler vane 130 on which the liquid fuel LF hits. Water is injected through the multi-purpose injecting holes 11 - 1 to 11 - 3 to form a water film 15 A on the vane pressure surface 132 a , whereby a combustion temperature is reduced and formation of carbon deposit is prevented.
1. A combustion burner comprising:
a fuel nozzle;
a burner tube that surrounds the fuel nozzle to form an air passage between the burner tube and the fuel nozzle;
a plurality of swirler vanes being arranged in a plurality of positions in a circumferential direction on an external circumferential surface of the fuel nozzle, each of which extends along an axial direction of the fuel nozzle, and gradually curves from upstream to downstream so as to swirl air flowing in the air passage from the upstream to the downstream;
a liquid fuel injecting hole that is formed on the fuel nozzle, and from which a liquid fuel is injected to a vane pressure surface of each of the swirler vanes; and
a cooling unit that cools a part of the vane pressure surface on which the liquid fuel hits, wherein
the cooling unit provided on the fuel nozzle includes a water injecting hole that is arranged upstream of the liquid fuel injecting hole provided on the fuel nozzle, and in line therewith, and from which water is injected to the vane pressure surface of the swirler vane.
