Abstract

Method and burner for combusting a main fuel with a main oxidizer, whereby flows of the main fuel and the main oxidizer are injected via an injector end, comprising at least one metallic injector, said injector end being positioned in the upstream section of a main passage of a refractory block and whereby multiple jets are injected into the downstream section of the main passage to increase mixing and turbulence of the flows of the main fuel and the main oxidizer.
