Abstract
A solid fuel nozzle tip for issuing a flow of mixed solid fuel and air into a boiler or furnace includes an outer nozzle body having an outer flow channel extending therethrough from an inlet to an outlet of the outer nozzle body. An inner nozzle body has an inner flow channel extending therethrough from an inlet to an outlet of the inner nozzle body. The inner nozzle body is mounted within the outer nozzle body with the inner flow channel inboard of and substantially aligned with the outer flow channel. The inner and outer nozzle bodies are joined together so as to accommodate movement relative to one another due to thermal expansion and contraction of the outer and inner nozzle bodies.
