Abstract
A burner system is provided that includes at least two adjacent burners that are separate from each other. Each of the two burners has at least one combustion chamber and a head end. The head end includes at least a fuel injection and a fuel-air premix. Each burner has a cap with a cap side and cap upper side, wherein at least the cap upper side is arranged ahead of the head end, seen in the direction of flow. In this manner, a burner plenum is formed between the cap upper side and the head end. The at least two burner plenums thus formed have an acoustic connection. A method for damping such a burner system is also provided.
