Abstract

A burner, in particular for a gas turbine, in which combustion air is subjected to a vorticity by a vortex element, admits fuel to the vortical combustion air. At the same time, a pressure loss produced by the vortex element is small. A low NO.sub.x emission at virtually the same efficiency is achieved.
