Abstract
A pulverized coal burner includes a venturi for contracting a flow of a mixture of pulverized coal and primary air toward a central axis of a fuel nozzle 2. A spindle having a cone is provided coaxially with the central axis and gradually expands from an upstream side to a downstream side to cause the mixture to impinge thereon and diffuse. A column extends from the cone and is parallel to the central axis of the fuel nozzle, and a cone extends from the column and gradually narrows from an upstream side to a downstream side. A flow path divider, having a cone gradually narrowing coaxially with the central axis on the downstream side of the spindle, and a cylinder extending from the cone and being coaxial and parallel with the central axis of the fuel nozzle 2, coaxially divides the flow path.
