Title: Combustion burner and combustion apparatus provided with said burner
Inventor: MORI MIKI
IPC: F23D1/00
Filed: 1997-04-30
Granted: 2002-05-21
Abstract: A combustion burner includes a mixture nozzle, a gas supply nozzle, and guide means. The mixture nozzle extends toward an interior of a furnace, and defines a mixture passage through which a mixture containing powdered solid fuel and gas for transferring the solid fuel flows.  A distal end portion of the mixture nozzle is flared so that a flow passage area of the mixture passage increases progressively in a direction of flow of the mixture. The gas supply nozzle radially surrounds the mixture nozzle to define between the gas supply nozzle and the mixture nozzle a gas passage through which a combustion oxygen-containing gas flows toward the furnace. The guide means is provided within the mixture nozzle at a position upstream of the flared portion of the mixture nozzle with respect to a flow of the mixture so as to make the mixture flow straightly along an inner peripheral surface of the flared portion of the mixture nozzle.

Abstract: A tip shroud for a moving blade, which is made thin and light to be used at a gas turbine downstream stage which is improved in the flow of cooling air to enhance the cooling efficiency. Cooling air holes 13 to 16 of a slot shape are formed in a tip shroud 11 of a moving blade 10 and are opened in two side faces to release the cooling air from the inside of the moving blade 10. In the upper face of the tip shroud 11, there are formed cooling air holes 20 which communicate with the higher pressure side in a combustion gas flow direction R to release the cooling air so that the cooling air flows from the higher pressure side to the lower pressure side to cool a high stress portion Y. A high stress portion X is likewise cooled with the cooling air coming from the adjoining moving blade. The slope shapes of the cooling air holes 13 to 16 allow the cooling air to flow widely thereby to cool the face of the tip shroud 11, and the cooling air holes ?0 cools the high stress portions X and Y effectively.
