Abstract
A fluid fuel boiler having a combustion chamber having an opening for introducing a combustion supporting gaseous fluid. A burner introduces a liquid fuel into the combustion chamber mixed with the gaseous fluid for combustion thereof. Water-heating flow paths are disposed circumferentially and axially of the combustion chamber. Axial hot gas flow paths deliver hot gases from a downstream portion of the combustion chamber to a plurality of nozzles for diverting some of the hot gases along axially spaced paths in a direction circumferentially of the combustion chamber. These latter hot gas flow paths are immersed in the flow paths of the water to improve heat transfer.
