MUMBAI, India, May 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517046153 A) filed by General Electric Technology Gmbh, Baden, Switzerland, on May 13, for 'pulverized solid fuel nozzle tip assembly with low contact frame.'

Inventor(s) include Lewis, John Childs; Donais, Richard Edward; and Grzebien, Kevin T.

The application for the patent was published on May 30, under issue no. 22/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A pulverized solid fuel nozzle tip assembly (36) with a low contact frame for use with a pulverized solid fuel pipe nozzle (38) is described. The pulverized solid fuel nozzle tip assembly (36) has an outer nozzle tip portion (46) adapted to mount in supported relation with the pulverized solid fuel pipe nozzle (38), and an inner nozzle tip portion (48) adapted for mounting within the outer nozzle tip portion (46) to have secure tiltable movement. The outer nozzle tip portion (46) has supporting surfaces that support surfaces of the inner nozzle tip portion to minimize the tilting forces transmitted to the inner nozzle tip portion during normal furnace operation, enhancing the wear resistance of the pulverized solid fuel nozzle tip assembly (36). The supporting surfaces of the outer nozzle also eliminate stress cracking to the surfaces of the inner nozzle tip portion that can arise due to thermal growth."

The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 16, 2022, under International application No.PCT/IB2022/062409.
