Abstract
A firing installation includes a combustion space fed by premixing burners having combustion air inlet slots along the length of the burner bodies that create a tangentially directed inflow of combustion air. Fresh air guides are positioned along the inlet slots upstream to guide fresh air into the slots, and include an end plate having a plurality of perforations that act as air injection nozzles. Movement of fresh air through the nozzles creates a vacuum that draws combustion air from the combustion space into the inlet slots where it mixes with the fresh air to form a combustion gas mixture.
