Oil vapour diluent gas mixture preparation for burner - in which diluent gas permits low oil vapour pressure thus lower operating temperatures

摘要

Appts. to burn liquid fuels in a gaseous fuel burner, which includes preparatory appts. for atomisation of liquid fuel oil pref. by a diluent gs. Then heating of the fuel droplets and diluent gas so as to completely vaporise the liquid fuel. If atomisation is by other means, diluent gas is added prior ot vaporisation heating. The resulting oil vapour-diluent gas mixture then goes to a burner which utilises the central orifice of a conventional gas burner. Primary air is induced into the burner tube due to the high velocity of jets of oil vapour-diluent gas. The diluent gas permits low vapour pressure of oil vapour and thus lower operating temperature. For the use of gaseous fuel, the same burner is utilised. The diluent gas can be pref. any noncombutsible and non-oxygen containing gas.
