Definitions
- the present invention relates to turbomachine components and more particularly to a burner for a dual fuel based
- turbomachines dual fuel i.e. a liquid fuel and a gaseous fuel, are used advantageously as main fuels in many applications for example in Lean Premix combustions, Dry Low ⁇ combustions, and so and so forth.
- dual fuel i.e. a liquid fuel and a gaseous fuel
- main fuels for example in Lean Premix combustions, Dry Low ⁇ combustions, and so and so forth.
- a burner assembly in a combustion section includes a burner head connected to a swirl generator or swirler that in turn is connected to a mixer or premixing pathway or section.
- the burner assembly is connected to or assembled with a

- turbomachines that use the dual fuel techniques, the main fuels, distinct from pilot fuel supplies, are mostly both gaseous and liquid.
- the basic technique in such dual fuel combustions is to premix the main fuel with air from a compressor of the turbomachine before igniting the combustion mixture, i.e. mixture of the air from the compressor and the main fuel, in the combustion chamber.
- the air from the compressor is mixed with the main gaseous fuel, either inside the swirler or just before introduction into the swirler, and then swirled by the swirler to create a swirling flow of the air and the main gaseous fuel.
- This swirling flow of the pressurized air from the compressor and the main gaseous fuel then enters from the swirler into the premixing section.
- the pressurized air from the compressor and the main gaseous fuel are allowed to mix well before exiting into the combustion chamber or the combustion space where the combustion mixture undergoes combustion.
- the main liquid fuel is discharged by a nozzle positioned at the burner head.
- the main liquid fuel after exiting the nozzle preferably in atomized form, enters the swirler and then continues into the premixing section and finally into the combustion chamber where the main liquid fuel participates in the combustion reaction.
- burners with a central fuel lance to provide for gaseous and/or liquid fuel.
- a cylindrical central fuel lance is known from the patent publication US 2010/0273117 Al .
- US 5,791,894 A shows a conical inner body within a premix burner, to generate a swirl about an axis by swirling of a medium around the inner body.

- recirculation zones within burner interiors such as the premixing section.
- the formation of the recirculation zones within the burner interiors is undesirable, as it may result into overheating of the burner components for example the premixing section and/or the swirler.
- a continued problem of overheating over an extended period of time may result into damaging of the parts of the burner components i.e. the premixing section, the swirler, etc.
- An object of the present technique is to obviate the above mentioned disadvantages and to ensure that recirculation zones for the combustion are formed at a desired spatial position in the combustion chamber or the combustion space. It is undesirable to allow formation of the recirculation zone within the premixing section of the burner. Achieving this object increases the combustion efficiency and thus the efficiency of the overall turbomachine , elongates operational life of the components of the burner and associated

- the swirler is arranged in series between the burner head and the premixing section.
- the burner head includes a burner head end.
- the burner interior is elongated along a main axis of the burner and is formed of an upstream side and a downstream side.
- the upstream side is disposed between the burner head and the downstream side.
- the upstream side is fluidly connected to the downstream side, i.e. the upstream side and the downstream side are continuous and together form the burner interior.
- a part of the burner interior enclosed by the swirler is the upstream side of the burner interior and the other part of the burner interior enclosed by the premixing section is the downstream side of the burner interior.
- the swirler includes an inlet section.
- the inlet section is configured to introduce air and a main gas fuel into the burner interior.
- the premixing section has a burner outlet through which the premixing side is
- the injection component has a tapering structure positioned along the main axis.
- the tapering structure of the injection component extends from the burner head into the burner interior.
- the injection component has a burner head side and an injection side.
- the injection component tapers from the burner head side to the injection side along the main axis.
- the injection component includes at least one liquid fuel outlet at the injection side.

- the main liquid fuel introduced in the burner interior by the injection component via the liquid fuel outlet is directed towards the combustion chamber.
- the injection side of the injection component is disposed in the burner interior.
- At least one of the at least one liquid fuel outlet is at a side - i.e. a side face of the tapering - of the injection side of the injection component.
- the liquid fuel outlet is angled in respect of an axial direction of the burner .
- the injection component is particularly a fuel lance.
- the tapering structure of the injection component minimizes aerodynamic disturbances in the burner interior, and thus ensuring efficient functioning of the swirler in generating swirl which in turn aids in achieving a desired spatial position of a central recirculation zone, preferably the central recirculation zone or the main recirculation zone is formed and limited completely within the combustion chamber, and thus minimizing possibilities of a flashback into the burner interior.
- the tapering structure of the injection component facilitates an axial velocity, i.e. along the main axis, of the combustion mixture i.e. the main fuel gas and the air mixture exiting from the swirler into the premixing section and continuing further into the combustion chamber. The facilitation of the axial velocity results from directed flow of the combustion mixture and/or its
- the tapering form of the injection component acts as a guide to the flow of main gas fuel and air facilitating the axial flow direction. This also helps in achieving the desired spatial position of the recirculation zone, which is preferably positioned in the combustion chamber and outside the premixing section. The positioning of the recirculation zone outside the premixing zone and within the combustion chamber minimizes possibilities of a flashback into the burner interior for example into the premixing section interior.
- the tapering structure of the injection component is a conical structure.
- the conical structure has preferably a regular geometrical shape i.e. the conical structure is symmetrical about a longitudinal axis of the conical structure.
- the tapering of the structure is smooth and gradual .
- the regular conical structure helps in further reduction of the aerodynamic disturbances in the burner interior.
- the conical shape being a regular shape is easy to manufacture and assemble.
- the tapering structure of the injection component is arranged coaxially to the main axis.
- the longitudinal axis of the conical structure overlaps with the main axis. This adds symmetry to the burner interior and this facilitates the further reduction of the aerodynamic disturbances in the burner interior.

- the first distance is a distance measured along the main axis between the at least one liquid fuel outlet and the burner head end.
- the second distance is a distance measured along the main axis between the burner outlet of the premixing section and the burner head end, in other words a length of the burner interior along the main axis.
- the main liquid fuel is transported, confined within the injection component, at least partially through parts of the burner interior that are enclosed by the swirler and/or the premixing section and is delivered into the burner interior at a desired position within the burner interior depending on a ratio of the first and the second distances.
- the main liquid fuel is ejected or injected out into the burner interior at a
- the injection component is configured to be longitudinally adjustable along the main axis such that a position of the at least one liquid fuel outlet of the injection component is changeable from a first location along the main axis to a second location along the main axis.
- a desirable position in the burner interior to eject or inject out the main liquid fuel can be adjusted during an operation of the turbomachine and/or may be set as desired between two operations of the turbomachine.
- the at least one liquid fuel outlet is positioned in the upstream side of the burner interior. This provides an embodiment in which, if so desired for a particular mode of operation of the turbomachine, the main liquid fuel can be injected out of the liquid fuel outlet before the premixing section. In another embodiment of the burner, the at least one liquid fuel outlet is positioned in the downstream side of the burner interior. This provides an embodiment in which, if so desired for a particular mode of operation of the turbomachine , the main liquid fuel can be injected out of the liquid fuel outlet into the burner interior enclosed by the premixing section. Furthermore, this embodiment ensures that spraying of the liquid fuel on surfaces of the inner wall of the swirler and at least a part of the surfaces of the inner wall of the premixing section are minimized.

- the first additional outlet is configured to introduce the main liquid fuel into the burner interior.
- the first additional outlet is at a side of the injection side of the injection component. This provides an additional direction in which an additional spray or an additional fluid stream of the main liquid fuel is directed towards the combustion chamber. This additional direction is at an acute angle to the main axis and is directed towards the combustion chamber.
- the at least one liquid fuel outlet is at a side of the injection side of the injection component. This ensures that a spray or a fluid stream of the main liquid fuel is directed towards the combustion chamber along an angle to the main axis. This direction is at an acute angle to the main axis and is directed towards the combustion chamber.
- the injection component includes a second additional outlet configured to introduce the main liquid fuel into the burner interior. The second additional outlet is at an end of the injection side of the injection component.

- the premixing section 40 has a part 44 of the premixing section 40 that surrounds the burner outlet 42 of the premixing section 40.
- the part 44 includes an external pilot 45, as depicted in FIG 1.
- a pilot fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber 99.
- FIGs 1 and 3 show introduction of the pilot fuel through the part 44 into the combustion chamber 99.
- a direction of injection of the pilot fuel is depicted by arrow 72 in FIGs 1 and 3. It may be noted that though FIG 1 shows just one external pilot 45, it is well within the scope of the present technique that a plurality of the external pilots 45 are present distributed circumferentially around a body (not shown) of the premixing section 40 around the burner outlet 42.
- the external recirculation zone 5 surrounds the central recirculation zone 4 annularly and helps to further stabilize the central recirculation zone 4.
- FIGs 5, 6 and 7, different positions of the injection component 50 along the main axis 9 are depicted.
- the liquid fuel outlet 55 is positioned in the downstream side 24 of the burner interior 20.
- the liquid fuel outlet 55 is positioned in the downstream side 24 of the burner interior 20 albeit in a different position with respect to the
- the liquid fuel outlet 55 is positioned in the upstream side 22 of the burner interior 20.
- a first distance 91 is a distance along the main axis 9 between the at least one liquid fuel outlet 55 and the burner head end 12
- a second distance 92 is a distance along the main axis 9 between the burner outlet 42 of the premixing section 40 and the burner head end 12.
- the first length 91 is calculated as a mathematical average of all the distances of each individual liquid fuel outlets 55 from the burner head end 12.
- a ratio of the first distance 91 and the second distance 92 may vary, for example the first distance 91 may be between 20% and 80% of the second distance 92 along the main axis 9.
- the injection component 50 is longitudinally adjustable or moveable along the central axis 9, such that a position of the at least one liquid fuel outlet 55 of the injection component 50 gets changed from a first location 93, as depicted in FIG 5 along the main axis 9 to a second location 94 along the main axis 9, as depicted in FIG 6.
- the injection component 50 is retractable into the burner interior 20 from the combustor chamber outlet 42 towards the burner head 10 and/or is extendable into the burner interior 20 from burner head 10 towards the combustor chamber outlet 42.
- FIG 7 shows another second location 94 depicted in FIG 7 as compared to the second location 94 of FIG 6 and as compared to the first location 93 of FIG 5.
- the shape of a fuel lance - i.e. the injection component 50 - is tapered in a way, that the fuel lance is an elongated component. Preferably it may reduce its width taken in radial direction along an axial distance D only by or less than D/10, preferably less than D/20.
