Abstract

The technical field of the invention is that of making “in-stream” burners which are placed directly inside a duct carrying a flow of gas, with the burners serving to heat the gas and being placed as burner rails that are generally made up of individual blocks. Such burners comprising a pipe on an axis XX′ and suitable for extending transversely across the flow direction of the gas, the pipe being fed with a fuel gas and being pierced by at least two holes in alignment on a common generator line, the burner also having a flame stabilizer formed by two deflector-forming fins diverging on either side of the generator line. According to the invention, at least one of the holes is extended by a tube extending beyond the outer edges of the fins and pierced by at least one fuel gas ejection orifice at its distal end.
