Record 1 1990-08-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

Vertical Rotary-Atomizing Burner. Some vertical rotary-atomizing burners break the oil into droplets by using a rapidly revolving cup mounted on a vertical motor shaft. Others atomize the oil by whirling it out of the ends of small open-mouthed tubes on a rapidly revolving distributor that is mounted on a vertical motor shaft. In each case, a blower supplies the air for combustion.

CONT

Vertical rotary burners consist of two type: the wall-flame burner [of the vaporizing-type oil burner] and the sunflower-flame burner [of the atomizing-type oil burner].

CONT

Vertical rotary burners do not use a combustion chamber because of the manner in which they are installed within the boiler or furnace. Instead they use a circular hearth, ... the characteristic parts of these burners are their cups and high-speed motors, in addition to float valves or other devices used to maintain a constant flow of oil.
