In a fuel lance by means of which fuels can be injected, via at least two separate passages, into a combustion chamber alternately or simultaneously at an injection location arranged substantially at the lance tip, reliable operation is achieved, without the risk of flashbacks and also without cokin
In a fuel lance by means of which fuels can be injected, via at least two separate passages, into a combustion chamber alternately or simultaneously at an injection location arranged substantially at the lance tip, reliable operation is achieved, without the risk of flashbacks and also without coking, by virtue of the fact that the fuel lance, in addition to fuel, also passes purge air to the injection location, and that the purge air, at the injection location, is routed between the two fuel systems, in such a manner that these systems are shielded from one another by the purge air.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for injecting a fuel/air mixture into a combustion chamber comprising: a fuel lance having a lance tip, a central inner tube, middle and outer tubes arranged concentrically with respect to the inner tube, and an insert disposed along a central axis of the fuel la
What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for injecting a fuel/air mixture into a combustion chamber comprising: a fuel lance having a lance tip, a central inner tube, middle and outer tubes arranged concentrically with respect to the inner tube, and an insert disposed along a central axis of the fuel lance proximate the lance tip; wherein opposing walls of the inner and middle tubes proximate the lance tip form a substantially hollow, cylindrical, first duct portion; wherein an inner wall of the inner tube proximate the lance tip and the insert are configured and dimensioned to together provide a second duct portion directed slightly radially outward forming a truncated circular cone which opens out toward the lance tip; and wherein an inner wall of the outer tube proximate the lance tip is configured and dimensioned to provide a third duct portion directed slightly radially inward toward the central axis. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the fuel lance is circular in cross-section. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the middle tube has a first external diameter and the outer tube has a second external diameter, the first external diameter being approximately two-thirds of the second external diameter. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the central inner tube has a first external diameter and the outer tube has a second external diameter, the first external diameter being approximately one-third of the second external diameter. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the tubes are formed of nickel-base alloys. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein each of the tubes has a wall thickness between 1 and 3 millimeters. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the fuel lance further comprises a lance base and a plurality of openings arranged in radial segments of the outer tube proximate the lance base. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the openings are slots. 9. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the openings are bores. 10. The apparatus of claim 9, wherein the bores each have a bore diameter of between 2 and 4 millimeters. 11. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the insert is symmetric about the central axis. 12. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the insert comprises a triangular cross-section. 13. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the insert is partially disposed within the inner tube. 14. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the insert is completely disposed within the outer tube. 15. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the fuel lance is arranged on an axis of a premix burner. 16. The apparatus of claim 15, wherein the premix burner comprises a double-cone burner with downstream mixing section. 17. The apparatus of claim 15, wherein the premix burner comprises a double-cone burner without a downstream mixing section. 18. The apparatus of claim 15, wherein the fuel lance has a first length and the premix burner has a total length, with the first length being about three-quarters of the total length. 19. An apparatus for injecting a fuel/air mixture into a combustion chamber comprising: a fuel lance having a lance tip, a central inner tube, middle and outer tubes arranged concentrically with respect to the inner tube, and an insert disposed along a central axis of the fuel lance proximate the lance tip; wherein opposing walls of the inner and middle tubes proximate the lance tip form a cylindrical, first duct portion; wherein an inner wall of the inner tube proximate the lance tip and the insert are configured and dimensioned to together provide a second duct portion directed radially outward forming a truncated circular cone which opens out toward the lance tip; and wherein opposing walls of the outer and middle tubes proximate the lance tip are configured and dimensioned to provide a third duct portion directed radially inward toward the central axis. 20. The apparatus of claim 19, further comprising a premix burner, wherein the fuel lance is arranged on an axis of the premix burner.
