Abstract
A wall-fired burner includes a fuel tip defining a fuel direction axis and a fuel tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto. A first air tip is adjacent to the fuel tip. The first air tip defines a first air direction axis and a first air tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto. A second air tip is adjacent to the fuel tip, opposite from the first air tip across the fuel tip. The second air tip defines a second air direction axis and a second air tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto. A mechanism operatively connects the fuel tip, the first air tip and the second air tip for at least one of independent and/or joint movement of the fuel tip, the first air tip and the second air tip.

A wall-fired burner including:
- a fuel tip defining a fuel direction axis and a fuel tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto;
- a first air tip adjacent to the fuel tip, wherein the first air tip defines a first air direction axis and a first air tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto;
- and
- a second air tip adjacent to the fuel tip, opposite from the first air tip across the fuel tip, wherein the second air tip defines a second air direction axis and a second air tip pivot axis perpendicular thereto;
- and
- a mechanism operatively connecting the fuel tip, the first air tip and the second air tip for at least one of independent and/or joint movement of the fuel tip, the first air tip and the second air tip, wherein, when the fuel tip is in a horizontal position, the fuel direction axis is perpendicular to a burner wall.
