High temperature burner assembly

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5911986
A high temperature burner assembly is described having a nozzle body for containing and conveying oxygen, a gas conduit disposed within the nozzle body and having means for directing a gaseous fuel therethrough to be expelled from the conduit and to mix with the oxygen for burning in a sustainable flame, and for use on association with a refractory burner block for substantially containing such flame. The improvement described consists of: a gas conduit tip connected to the gas conduit and including a substantially flat exteriorly disposed tip face, the tip face having a substantially frusto-conical shaped prominence disposed on and protruding from the tip face; the gas conduit tip having a central gas channel centrally disposed therethrough and terminating at the proximal end of the frusto-conical shaped prominence to form substantially a knife edge shaped rim for briefly delaying combustion and to provide no substantial available surface for carbon accumulation thereon; and primary oxygen expelling orifice means opening concentrically about the base of the frusto-conical shaped prominence for directing oxygen outwardly therefrom to mix with the gaseous fuel for initial combustion.
