Abstract

The invention describes a nozzle and a burner for oil-well tests comprising a plurality of nozzles. The nozzle comprises means for injecting an air-oil mixture to be burnt in the direction of a combustion zone, the flow of air at the outlet of the nozzle allowing the air in the air-oil mixture to create an air induction effect, that is to say entrainment of air, which is sufficient along the whole length of the jet to ensure the combustion.
