Abstract
A fuel nozzle comprises a body (1) with a cylindrical sleeve (2) accommodating a tubular element (3) having an axially extending channel (16). At the end of the element (3) there is arranged an acoustic head (5) having a conically shaped surface (6) adapted to generate acoustic vibrations. An annular recess (12) is formed on the surface (6). The nozzle body (1) carries a reflecting surface (9) formed as a plurality of pyramids. The fuel nozzle is provided with a device (18) adapted to swirl the gas flow and a regulating element (17) accommodated in the axial channel (16).
Claims4
A nozzle comprising a body (1) with a cylindrical sleeve (2) accommodating a tubular element (3) having an axially extending channel (16), at an end of which an acoustic head (5) is arranged with a surface (6) for generating acoustic vibrations;
- the nozzle body (1) supporting a reflecting surface (9);
- said tubular element (3) being arranged perpendicularly to said reflecting surface (9) so as to form an annular channel (10) between the internal surface of the sleeve (2) and the external surface of the tubular element (3);
- a radial channel (15) being formed in said acoustic head (5) and being in communication with said axial channel (16), characterized in that the nozzle is further provided with a device (18) associated with the nozzle body (1) for supplying a gas flow thereto, and a regulating element (17) arranged in said axial channel (16) in said tubular element;
- said surface (6) of said acoustic head being conically shaped and extending to an annular recess (12) provided in said acoustic head for generating acoustic vibrations;
- said reflecting surface (9) comprising a plurality of pyramids having lateral faces (19) joined to an outer cylindrical surface of the sleeve (2).
