Integral low nox injection burner

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A low NOx burner and related method are disclosed including the steps of supplying a first reactant stream and introducing a second reactant stream into the first reactant stream at a first point so as to produce co-flowing streams. This resulting fuel/oxidant stream is discharged into a furnace environment having inert combustion products substantially equilibrated to furnace temperature, so as to entrain the combustion products and mix them together with the co-flowing stream. The temperature of the co-flowing stream is increased by the entrained products until it ignites in a combustion region displaced from the first point. Thus ignition cannot occur until the reactant stream …
