Abstract
A device for burning a gaseous fuel/oxidant mixture, in particular for a power plant installation, includes a catalyzer/swirl generator arrangement. Part of the fuel/oxidant mixture is burned in the catalyzer/swirl generator arrangement and the catalyzer/swirl generator arrangement generates a swirl flow. The catalyzer/swirl generator arrangement includes several flow channels, of which some are constructed catalytically active and others catalytically inactive. The flow channels can be arranged distributed around a longitudinal central axis of the catalyzer/swirl generator arrangement, and can be slanted relative to the axis.
