Abstract
In a double-cone burner, at least one row of nozzles (10) for a gaseous fuel containing highly reactive components and having a medium calorific value are arranged on the periphery of the partial conical bodies (1, 2) of the burner near the burner outlet at a distance of approximately 30% of the nominal burner diameter. In addition, there is a fuel conduit (11) and a distributing passage (17), placed in the region of the nozzles (10), for the highly reactive fuel. The gaseous fuel (15) containing highly reactive components is injected at high velocity through the nozzles (10), which have a diameter which is smaller than 1% of the nominal burner diameter, into the zones of high air velocity and the penetration depth and the direction of the fuel jets are matched to one another in such a way that ignition only takes place behind the burner, after mixing has occurred.
