Abstract:
A method for injecting fuel and support air into a combustion chamber, said method comprising: injecting the fuel into a mixing zone in a hot gas flow using at least one fuel lance; and burning the fuel/air mixture in a combustion zone following the mixing zone in order to produce a waste gas flow, the mixing zone being preceded by a vortex generator, and the combustion chamber being ignited by self-ignition, the fuel and the support air being injected from at least one sidewall of the mixing zone of the combustion chamber into the mixing zone wherein the fuel and support air are injected asymmetrically from the same nozzle in different fuel/support air mixture jets into the mixing zone of the combustion chamber, and the different fuel/support air mixture jets are directed in different directions or different sectors within the mixing zone of the combustion chamber.
