Abstract

PURPOSE:To retain a preheating agent safely by a method wherein the preheating agent, arranged in the fuel of an alkaline metal, is fixed by fixing members, reacting against the alkaline metal, consisting of a metallic material burnt by an oxidizing agent and attached to the wall of the end of a combustor provided with the injection nozzle of the oxidizing agent. CONSTITUTION:A cylindrical flange 10, having an oxidizing agent injection nozzle 9, is attached to a cylindrical ring 7, fixed to one ends of water tubes 1a, 1b, and an annular supporting member 11, fixed to the inner wall of the cylindrical ring 7, is provided with a screw thread on the inner wall thereof. A preheating agent 5 is supported by fittings 2, 3, 4 and, thereafter, the cylindrical flange 10, equipped with the injection nozzle 9 of the oxidizing agent, is secured to the end of the cylindrical ring 7 through welding or the like. The lengthwise vibration of the preheating agent 5 is prevented by the fittings 2, 3 while the lateral vibration of the same is prevented by the fitting 4 whereby the preheating agent 5 may be supported rigidly in an alkaline metal 6.
