An improved nozzle tip (30) which provides enhanced ignition and stabilization of pulverized fuel flames in furnaces operating at low load. The nozzle tip (30) comprises open-ended inner and outer shells (32,34) mounted to the fuel delivery pipe (12) and defining a flow passageway within the inner shell through which the pulverized fuel is directed into the furnace and an annular flow passageway (50) between the inner and outer shells through which additional air is directed into the furnace. A pair of diverging splitter plates (41,42) are disposed within the inner shell (32) so as to divide the flow passageway therethrough into two separate, diverging subpassages (52,54) so that the pulverized fuel stream discharging from the fuel delivery pipe is split into first and second streams (60,70) which pass from the nozzle tip (30) into the furnace in a diverging manner thereby establishing an ignition stabilizing pocket in the low pressure zone (80) created between the diverging fuel streams.

A nozzle tip for a burner on a pulverized fuel fired furnace comprising: a. an open-ended inner shell having an inlet end and an outlet end and defining therebetween a flow passageway through which a mixture of pulverized fuel and transport air passes from the burner into the furnace; b. an open-ended outer shell spaced from and surrounding said inner shell thereby defining an annular flow passageway therebetween through which additional air passes from the burner into the furnace; and c. first and second splitter plates disposed within said inner shell, each having a leading edge portion disposed transversely across the flow passageway of said inner shell at the inlet end thereof and a trailing edge portion extending transversely across the flow passageway of said inner shell at the outlet end thereof, said first and second splitter plates converging at the inlet end of said inner shell and extending outwardly therefrom in a diverging manner toward the outlet end of said inner shell, said first and second splitter plates thereby dividing the flow passageway through said inner shell into a first flow passage bounded by the first splitter plate and said inner shell and a second flow passage bounded by the second splitter plate and said inner shell, said first and second flow passages diverging in the direction of flow through the nozzle tip and being spaced apart at the outlet end of the nozzle tip so as to establish a void region therebetween through which flow directly from the nozzle tip is precluded, the trailing edge portion of each of said first and second splitter plates being formed of a plurality of longitudinally elongated strips extending longitudinally outward from the leading edge portion of each of said first and second splitter plates in a side-by-side relationship transversely across the flow passageway of said inner shell, a first portion of said trailing edge strips disposed alternately between a second portion of said trailing edge strips and bent radially away from the leading edge portion of each of said first and second splitter plates thereby forming a scalloped tailing edge portion of each of said first and second splitter plates.
