Abstract

To provide: a fuel nozzle ( 51 ) that can inject fuel gas in which fuel and air are mixed; a flame stabilizer ( 54 ) provided on an axial center side near a tip end of the fuel nozzle ( 51 ); and a casing member ( 55 ) that partitions an inner flow channel in which the flame stabilizer ( 54 ) is provided and an outer flow channel on an outer side of the inner flow channel, inside the fuel nozzle ( 51 ), where the flow channel cross-sectional area of the inner flow channel partitioned by the casing member ( 55 ) expands in the flow direction of the fuel gas.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A combustion burner, comprising:
a fuel nozzle that injects fuel gas in which fuel and air are mixed;
at least one flame stabilizer provided on an axial center side near a tip end of the fuel nozzle; and
a partitioning member that partitions an inner flow channel in which the flame stabilizer is provided and an outer flow channel on an outer side of the inner flow channel, inside the fuel nozzle; wherein
the flow channel cross-sectional area of the inner flow channel partitioned by the partitioning member expands in a flow direction of the fuel gas.

2. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein the partitioning member is a casing member.

3. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein the partitioning member has two plate-shaped bodies that extend mutually providing an interval with the flame stabilizer interposed therebetween, and the plate-shaped bodies are connected to a wall surface demarcating an outer circumference of the fuel nozzle.

4. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , comprising: a combustion burner air nozzle supplying air from the outside of the fuel nozzle, wherein the flow channel cross-sectional area of the outer flow channel partitioned by the partitioning member decreases in the flow direction of the fuel gas.

5. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein the partitioning member has an inclination angle, which is an angle to a direction parallel to a flow direction of the fuel gas, that decreases with regard to an upstream end portion in the flow direction of the fuel gas, when approaching a tip end side.

6. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein a guide surface inclined toward an axial center side of the fuel nozzle is provided on an inner wall surface of the partitioning member, based on moving in the flow direction of the fuel gas.

7. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , comprising: a combustion burner air nozzle supplying air from the outside of the fuel nozzle, wherein the combustion burner air nozzle has an area of a surface surrounded by an outer surface that decreases with regard to an upstream end portion in the flow direction of the fuel gas, when approaching the tip end.

8. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , further comprising a guide member provided on a more upstream side than the partitioning member, that guides the fuel gas flowing inside the fuel nozzle to an axial center side.

9. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , comprising:
a combustion burner air nozzle supplying air from the outside of the fuel nozzle, further comprising a secondary air nozzle that injects air from the outside of the combustion burner air nozzle; wherein
the secondary air nozzle has a surface on an axial center side with an inclination separated from the axial center based on moving toward a tip end side, and air flowing inside the secondary air nozzle is discharged in a direction guided to the axial outside, isolated from air injected by the secondary air nozzle.

10. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein the flame stabilizer forms a structure where two parallel first flame stabilizing members that extend along a horizontal direction and have a predetermined gap in a vertical direction, and two parallel second flame stabilizers that extend along a vertical direction and that have a predetermined gap in a horizontal direction are provided so as to intersect.

11. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , the flame stabilizer, comprising:
an upstream side flame stabilizing member provided on an upstream side of a fuel gas flow; and
a downstream side flame stabilizing member provided on a downstream side of the fuel gas with regard to the upstream side flame stabilizing member.

12. The combustion burner according to claim 1 , wherein the flame stabilizer has a widened portion on a downstream side in the flow direction of the fuel gas.

13. A boiler, comprising:
a furnace;
the combustion burner according to claim 1 installed with regard to the furnace; and
a heat exchanger that exchanges heat with combustion gas from the combustion burner at a downstream side of the furnace.
