Disclosed is a burner for the partial combustion of a solid carbonaceous fuel, and suitable for use in an reactor having a plurality of burners wherein e.g. finely divided coal is supplied to a reactor space via a central channel disposed along the longitudinal axis of the burner, and oxygen-containing gas is supplied via an annular channel surrounding said central channel and configured for said gas to intersect said coal at an acute angle, and heat from the combustion is removed from a dimensioned curvilinear hollow front of the burner by coolant flowed radially at constant momentum through said hollow front.

A burner for the partial combustion of finely divided solid carbonaceous fuel with a an oxygen-containing gas in a combustion zone, said burner having a supply end and a discharge end and comprising: a central channel disposed along a longitudinal axis of the burner and having an outlet at the discharge end of the burner for supplying fuel to the combustion zone; a substantially annular channel disposed coaxially with said central channel and having an outlet forming the throat of the burner with a diameter D, at the discharge end of the burner and configured to supply oxygen-containing gas flow to intersect the fuel from said central channel; a hollow wall member disposed at the discharge end of said burner and coaxially with said substantially annular channel, said hollow wall member having a construction defining an internal passage for fluid coolant, said passage having a first end adjacent to said substantially annular channel and another end adjacent to the lateral periphery of the burner at said discharge end said hollow wall member having a curvilinear outer surface including an arcuate shape substantially normal to the longitudinal axis of the burner extending from the outlet of said substantially annular channel to the lateral dimension of the burner, said curvilinear outer surface extending in the downstream direction of said throat a distance from about 0.2 to about 1 D, said hollow wall member at the lateral periphery of the burner extending from said discharge end of the burner toward the supply end of the burner for a distance of at least one-half D, said hollow wall member internal passage being of substantially uniform cross-sectional area in a radial direction; said hollow wall member being operatively connected to: (a) a supply conduit disposed adjacent to said substantially annular channel to supply fluid coolant to a proximate first end of said hollow wall member and (b) a return conduit disposed to pass fluid coolant proximately from the other end of said hollow wall member whereby fluid coolant flows outwardly and substantially radially through said hollow wall member from said supply conduit; said hollow wall member being dimensioned for substantially constant momentum of coolant flow therethrough.
