SYSTEMS FOR REACTING FUEL AND AIR TO A REFORMATE

摘要

The invention relates to a system for reacting fuel and air to a reformate. Said system comprises a reformer including a reaction chamber, a nozzle for supply a fuel/air mixture to the reaction chamber, at least one supply line for supplying fuel to the nozzle and at least one entrance channel for supplying air to the nozzle. According to the invention, the nozzle comprises a swirl chamber into which the at least one supply line for supplying fuel runs in a substantially axial/central manner and the at least one entrance channel runs in a substantially tangential manner and from which a nozzle outlet exits. The swirl chamber comprises a narrowing spiral channel into which the entrance channel for the gaseous medium runs, and a space axially contiguous thereto in the direction toward the nozzle outlet, into which the supply line for supplying fuel runs and from which the nozzle outlet exits.
