A seal for burners for the combustion of fossil fuels with an oxidant gas that contains a high fraction of gaseous oxygen. The burner includes a burner body with a cylindrical opening within which a cylindrical nozzle is removably positioned. The nozzle includes axial channels for the supply of fuel and oxidant gas. One, two or more parallel annular grooves are provided in the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical nozzle. Each groove is arranged to support a sealing ring that is split or discontinuous at one location along its periphery. Each ring is arranged to lie in contact with the inner surface of the cylindrical opening when the nozzle is mounted in the burner body, with the discontinuities of the rings circumferentially offset relative to each other. |
