Abstract
An aerodynamically stabilized premixing burner includes a swirl generator for the production of a rotating combustion air flow, and a device for the introduction of at least one fuel into this combustion air flow. The burner is advantageously provided with a device for the introduction of an axial air flow into the center of the generated rotational flow. This axial air flow is controllable in order to affect the position and intensity of the flame-stabilizing recirculation zone at the burner mouth.
