Abstract
In a burner arrangement for the annular combustion chamber of a gas turbine, a plurality of burners are arranged above one another, in each case in pairs in the radial direction, on concentric rings. In a burner arrangement of this type, the mechanical integrity of the turbine casing is increased and operation of the combustion chamber is optimized by virtue of the two burners in a pair of burners being oriented out of the parallel position, in such a manner that their burner axes converge in the direction of flow.
