Abstract
High turndown ratio gaseous fuel burner nozzles and the control thereof are provided. High turndown ratio gaseous fuel burner nozzles include a mechanically adjustable nozzle port, such as in the form of an iris port, for expanded turndown control. A nozzle extension longitudinally extending from the mechanical adjustable nozzle port can be included to assist in shaping the flow of combustible gas from the nozzle port. A laminar flow insert can be housed within the nozzle extension to assist in producing laminar flow of the combustible gas flowing therethrough. A burner nozzle controller in control communication with the mechanically adjustable nozzle port can adjust the size of the nozzle port to selectively maintain exit velocity of the gaseous fuel from the nozzle port for one or more of combustion stability and flame stability.
