  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

High pressure, gun-type burners consist of a motor, oil pump(with integral or separate pressure regulating and shut-off valve), strainer, fan, ignition transformer, nozzle and electrode assembly.... The motor-driven pump draws oil from the supply tank and delivers it to the nozzle at pressures of from 100 to 300 psi. The nozzle atomizes the oil into fine particles and swirls it into the combustion chamber as a cone-shaped spray where it mixes with air [moving down the blast gun tube] and is ignited. [By an electric spark]. They are generally designed to burn No. 2 oil although some of the larger sizes are made for No. 4 oil.

  • Fumisterie et brûleurs
CONT

Brûleur à pulvérisation mécanique: le mazout, passant par un filtre, est aspiré par une pompe à engrenage vers un régulateur de pression et un gicleur qui réalise la pulvérisation [...]. Le mélange air-mazout pulvérisé est enflammé par une étincelle jaillie entre deux électrodes et la combustion s'entretient d'elle-même. Ce type de brûleur est relativement silencieux mais il exige un fuel pur pour ne pas encrasser trop vite le filtre ou boucher le gicleur.

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

Atomizing is accomplished by pumping the oil... through a suitable burner nozzle orifice which breaks it into a fine mist and swirls it into the combustion space as a cone-shaped spray.

French

  • Fumisterie et brûleurs
CONT

Le principe de la pulvérisation consiste à provoquer le croisement d'un jet de combustible avec un jet de fluide auxiliaire. (...) Les doublets de pulvérisation et les orifices calibrés peuvent être en nombre variable. Les orifices calibrés peuvent être orientés à volonté. La disposition courante est une répartition suivant un cône. Chaque orifice délivrant lui-même un jet conique (...).

Record 3 1990-10-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

Pressure Atomizing Oil Burners.... Atomizing is accomplished by pumping the oil at pressure... through a suitable burner nozzle orifice which breaks it into a fine mist and swirls it into the combustion space as a cone-shaped spray. Combustion air from a fan is forced through the burner air-handling parts surrounding the oil nozzle and is directed into the oil spray. Thus, an intimate mixture of air and oil is produced.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fumisterie et brûleurs
CONT

Les deux principaux [procédés] consistent (...) à vaporiser le mazout (...) [ou] à la pulvériser, soit par la rencontre d'un jet d'huile sous pression avec un jet d'air également sous pression, soit par frottement ou chocs contre des parties métalliques (pulvérisation mécanique).
