Abstract

An oxy-fuel burner that co-fires liquid fuel and gaseous fuel to create a more luminous flame. The characteristics of a liquid fuel spray and the gaseous fuel and primary oxidant gas flows, as well as the geometry of the burner is adapted to shroud the liquid fuel from the primary oxidant until it exits a precombustor and to prevent the liquid fuel from contacting the walls of the precombustor.
