Drilled port burners

Flame plasma systems are manufactured with two primary burner configurations - ribbon and drilled port. Ribbon burners are typically constructed with a cast iron body and with stainless steel ribbons that are meshed (or opposed to each other) to construct varying pilot and main flame patterns. As the number and size of the open areas created by various ribbon mesh patterns increases, so does the capacity of the ribbon burner. Drilled port burners are typically manufactured with brass, stainless steel, and/or aluminum and offer the flexibility of having varying arrays of port diameters and port rows for wide design and treatment adaptations. With these port configurations they can be slid in and out of the burner body construction for application-specific treatment requirements. Practical applications of flame plasmas have established that base substrates are optimally treated by a flame plasmas when they are positioned approximately 5-8 mm above...

Test burners are preferably equipped with separate fuel lines with valves to each set of fuel tips. This allows control of the fuel splits to each set of tips without changing tip drillings. Instrumentation should also be in place to determine the fuel flow to each set of tips. This can be done by placing flow meters in each tip s fuel line or installing pressure gauges that measure the fuel tip pressure. Even with independent flow control to each set of fuel tips, it is desirable for the fuel tips to be easily removable to enable experimentation with different drillings and port angles.
