Abstract
In a method of operating a burner of a heat generator, in which the burner essentially includes a swirl generator for a combustion-air flow, a mechanism for injecting at least one fuel into the combustion-air flow, and a number of transition passages for passing a flow formed in the swirl generator into a mixing tube arranged downstream of the transition passages, a predetermined quantity of a second fuel having a good ignition quality is injected into the reaction zone in order to stabilize the combustion in the combustion space.
