Abstract

The present invention relation to a burner for a combustion chamber of a gas turbine with a mixing and injection device. The mixing and injection device includes a limiting wall that defines a gas-flow channel and at least two streamlined bodies, each extending in a first transverse direction into the gas-flow channel. Each streamlined body has two lateral surfaces that are arranged essentially parallel to the main-flow direction, the lateral surfaces being joined to one another at their upstream side to form a leading edge of the body and joined at their downstream side to form a trailing edge of the body. Each streamlined body has a cross-section perpendicular to the first transverse direction that is shaped as a streamlined profile. At least one of the streamlined bodies is provided with a mixing structure and with at least one fuel nozzle located at its trailing edge for introducing at least one fuel essentially parallel to the main-flow direction into the flow channel, wherein at least two of the streamlined bodies have different lengths along the first transverse direction such that they may be used for a can combustor. The invention also relates to a method of using said bur…
