Abstract
A combustion chamber for gas turbine engines or power plants having devices for the gaseous processing of the fuel which is introduced therein, characterized by the combination of the following features: PA1 A. The fuel ejection cone of at least one fuel nozzle arranged upstream of the flame tube back wall of the combustion chamber extends exteriorly along the flame tube backwall, the latter of which is conically shaped in conformance with the ejection cone; PA1 B. The combustion chamber has an air infeed hood essentially encompassing at least partially the flame tube backwall as well as the fuel nozzle, forming an annular or ring channel narrowing in the direction of the downstream end of the flame tube backwall and which, by means of plurality of apertures located immediately behind the flame tube backwall in the side walls of the flame tube, is in communication with the interior of the flame tube.
