Meanwhile, dilute pulverized coal air flow at the center is ejected into the furnace by direct flow, ensuring subsequent mixing and combustion of pulverized coal flow. The primary air nozzle and the secondary air nozzle are provided with cone flaring structures with certain angle to effectively control appropriate mixing of secondary air and pulverized coal. The invention has advantages of strong ignition and combustion stability, good coal adaptability, low nitric oxide emission, simple primary air channel structure and small resistance, which effectively slows wear rate of parts.
