Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides a nozzle structure for a hydrogen gas burner apparatus, capable of reducing an amount of generated NOx. A nozzle structure for a hydrogen gas burner apparatus, includes an outer pipe, an inner pipe disposed concentrically with the outer pipe, and a stabilizer configured to throttle a space between the outer pipe and the inner pipe. The inner pipe includes an inner pipe end part with an axial opening hole and a circumferential opening hole formed therein, the axial opening hole penetrating in an axial direction of the inner pipe, the circumferential opening hole penetrating in a radial direction of the inner pipe. A hydrogen gas flows through the inner pipe. The circumferential opening hole lets the hydrogen gas flow out from the inner pipe in the radial direction of the inner pipe.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A nozzle structure for a hydrogen gas burner apparatus, comprising an outer pipe, an inner pipe disposed concentrically with the outer pipe, and a stabilizer configured to throttle a space between the outer pipe and the inner pipe, wherein the inner pipe comprises an inner pipe end part with an axial opening hole and a circumferential opening hole formed therein, the axial opening hole penetrating in an axial direction of the inner pipe, the circumferential opening hole penetrating in a radial direction of the inner pipe, a hydrogen gas flows through the inner pipe, the circumferential opening hole lets the hydrogen gas flow out from the inner pipe in the radial direction of the inner pipe, the axial opening hole lets hydrogen gas flow out from the inner pipe in the axial direction of the inner pipe, an oxygen-containing gas flows between the outer pipe and the stabilizer, a ratio S 2 /S 1 between a cross-sectional area S 1 of the axial opening hole and a cross-sectional area S 2 of the circumferential opening hole is equal to or lower than 50%, and a ratio S 3 /S 4 between a cross-sectional area S 4 of a space between the inner pipe and the outer pipe and a cross-sectional area S 3 of a space between an outer edge of the stabilizer and the outer pipe is equal to or lower than 45%. 2. The nozzle structure for a hydrogen gas burner apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio S 2 /S 1 and the ratio S 3 /S 4 satisfy the following relation: S 3/ S 4≤0.0179×( S 2/ S 1) 2 −1.7193×( S 2/ S 1)+45.
