With reference now to Fig. 1 and 2, provide a kind of equipment 2 for burner exhaust stream according to various aspect.Equipment 2 comprises gas deflector 4, and gas deflector 4 is for making waste gas along its surface 6 deflection.Equipment 2 can also comprise the supporting arm 8 for gas deflector 4 being supported thereon.Waste gas can be flow in gas deflector 4 by supporting arm 8.Thus, supporting arm 8 can have the exhaust steam passage 10 formed wherein, as shown in Figure 3, so that waste gas is by wherein flowing.Be provided with the waste gas outlet 12 for waste gas to be guided to gas deflector 4 from exhaust steam passage 10.As shown in Figure 3-4 and as described further below, outlet 12 can comprise the annular opening 14 between supporting arm 8 and gas deflector 4, thus waste gas flows by opening 14 with along the outer surface 6 of gas deflector.
Waste gas deflector comprises the multiple blades 16 extended from this waste gas deflector radial direction.Thus, along with the outer surface of waste gas along gas deflector 4 flows, this gas on blade 16 and between flowing.It has been determined that in gas deflector 4, to comprise the radial blade 16 extended improves waste gas streams and surrounding air in the mixing of flare stack duration of work, causes the minimizing of the amount of smoke produced between main combustion period.Also it has been determined that comprise the as described herein radial blade 16 extended provide the flame temperature of reduction and minimizing for such as NO xthe unwanted byproduct of discharge is to the discharge in air.According to one side, blade comprises multiple flank 18 be vertically oriented substantially, and flank 18 is spaced apart around gas deflector 4 circumference, thus gas flows along flank with by the passage 20 formed between adjacent flank 18.
According to various aspect, supporting arm 8 is arranged for supporting gas deflector 4 thereon.Supporting arm 8 can also comprise gas passage 10, flows to gas deflector 4 from source of the gas for making the waste gas that will burn.In a kind of scheme shown in Fig. 1, equipment 2 can comprise multiple supporting arms 8 of the multiple gas deflector 4 of supporting.Contrary with having single large gas deflector, the size of each gas deflector 4 can be reduced by this way.Contrary with single large gas deflector, this can by increase be used in multiple gas deflector 4 each in improve the ability of smog free combustion with the amount of the air of gas and vapor permeation.
Supporting arm 8 can extend from central air chamber 22 as shown in Figure 1.As shown in the figure, a supporting arm 8 upwards extends from the top of air chamber 22, and additional supporting arm 8 extends with the lateral parts 24 of an inclination angle from air chamber 22, and extends vertically at its sweep 26 place substantially.In one example, supporting arm 8 vertical portion 28 with vertical direction in be less than 5 degree (in another example with vertical axis in being less than 3 degree, in another example with vertical direction in being less than 1 degree) angle extend vertically.In another example again, the vertical portion 28 of supporting arm 8 extends vertically.
Supporting arm 8 can comprise gas passage 10 as shown in Figure 3, and gas passage 10 flows in gas deflector 4 for making waste gas pass through supporting arm 8.In a kind of scheme, as shown in Figure 3, gas passage 10 can comprise the hollow passageway by supporting arm 8.Thus, support arm 8 to be formed by the pipe hollow being substantially provided with path 10.This pipe can be cylindrical or other suitable configuration as shown in Figure 3.
According to one side, supporting arm 8 comprises the upper seating potion 30 for gas deflector 4 being supported thereon.In a kind of scheme, upper seating potion 30 comprises edge for supporting gas deflector 4 or flange 32.As shown in Figure 3, flange 32 can comprise the flange of annular substantially, this flange extends radially outwardly from the upper seating potion 30 of supporting arm, to provide upper seat surface 34, as hereafter by further describing, this upper seat surface 34 also may be used for the flowing guiding gas along deflector 4.
As mentioned above, gas deflector 4 is comprised according to the equipment 2 of various aspect.In the preferred form of one, gas deflector 4 comprises the gas deflector basin body 36 with Coanda surface 38 as shown in the figure.Coanda basin body 36 can have tulip shape configuration as shown in Figure 7, has low portion 40 that is less horizontal or that tilt a little, upper part 42 that is vertical or that tilt and the convex portions 44 between low portion 40 and upper part 42.The remainder that gas deflector completes this description is used as with reference to by coanda basin body 36.Those skilled in the art are known and understand coanda basin body substantially, and known coanda basin body produces " Coanda effect ", and wherein, the gas flowed along its outer surface tends to along this surface, and suck gas or the air of surrounding.In a kind of scheme, coanda basin body has the cross section of automatic adjustment along the plane that the longitudinal axis 46 with this basin body is orthogonal, although basin body 36 can also comprise other suitable cross sectional configuration, and such as oval or polygon.
According to one side, coanda basin body 36 comprises multiple blade 16 extended radially outwardly from its outer surface 38.As shown in the figure, blade 16 can comprise multiple flank 18 vertical substantially, and flank 18 is spaced apart around outer surface 38 circumference of basin body.In a kind of scheme, flank extends radially outwardly from the outer surface 38 (or bottom surface 20 of passage) of coanda basin body.As used in this article, phrase " total outer surface " refers to the outer surface of the whole outer surfaces formation along gas deflector, comprise the outer surface along coanda basin body 36, flank 18 and passage 20 in a kind of example, thus " total outer surface " of the part with flank of coanda basin body 36 has and does not have than correspondence the surface area that the outer surface of the coanda basin body of flank is large.
According to a kind of scheme, flank 18 extends substantially vertically along the outer surface 38 of coanda basin body.Be to be understood that, as described herein, when looking from front, flank 18 extends substantially vertically, and when the upper part 42 of basin body 36 as shown in Figure 6 tilts, when looking from side section (is 90 degree with front namely as shown in the side sectional view of Fig. 6), the flank vertically extended can tilt towards the longitudinal axis 46 of basin body 36 similarly.Based on this point, by a kind of scheme, when looking from front as shown in Figure 2, flank has axis 48 vertical substantially, this axis in a kind of example with vertical direction in being less than 5 degree, be less than 2 degree in another example, and in another example with vertical direction in being less than 1 degree.
Flank circumference is spaced apart, thus forms the passage 20 of multiple correspondence between adjacent flank 18, as shown in Figure 2.Passage 20 extends vertically substantially between flank 18, and can have multiple different shape and configuration.Passage 20 comprises passage bottom 50 at its base portion.Passage bottom can flush with the outer surface 36 of coanda basin body, or can raise relative to this outer surface 36 or cave in.
Flank 18 can have less constant radial contour (i.e. the outer surface 38 of interval from basin body and/or the flank of passage bottom 50 extension).Selectively, flank 18 can have the radial contour of change as shown in Figure 6.By a kind of scheme, as seen in figs, flank 18 is from the rib portion 52 compared with bottom to (raised) rib portion 54 raised change (taper) in wedged cone shaped gradually.Thus, in wedged cone shaped, the low portion 52 of change can slightly raise about basin body surface 36 or flush with it gradually, and to provide level and smooth transitional surface, the gas of upwards advancing along basin body surface can flow on this transitional surface.Flank 18 can also comprise the upper rib part 56 of the change in wedged cone shaped gradually, to provide level and smooth flowing when waste gas and combustion air mixture leave Coanda surface for it.Should be understood that, the radial flank extended can extend relative to the outer surface of coanda basin body and/or relative to passage radial direction.Thus, can such as by arranging flank along the outer surface of coanda basin body or by forming passage or recess thus square one-tenth flank forms flank on that channel in coanda basin body.
Flank 18 can have constant circumferential width or the width of change around the periphery of coanda basin body 36, as shown in figures 2 and 5.Similarly, passage 20 can have circumferential width that is constant or change.Typically, when coanda basin body as shown in the figure comprise internally gradually in wedged cone shaped change upper part 42, at least one in flank and passage by vicissitudinous for tool width, to produce the girth upwards reduced.
According to one side, flank 18 can have the sidewall 58 of the inclination extended between flank top section 60 and passage bottom 50, as shown in reference to figure 5 the best.The sidewall 58 tilted can be plane substantially, can be maybe bending or is otherwise formed.By reducing the number of degrees of the acute angle between flank and passage, the sidewall of inclination provides level and smooth surface, and gas can flow on a surface.
When being not intended to bound by theory, should believe, for coanda basin body 36 increases the total surface area that flank 18 adds coanda basin body 36, to improve the mixing of waste gas/combustion air, and not providing the corresponding increase of the overall diameter to basin body.By this way, coanda basin body 36 can be advantageously made to keep less, simultaneously for suction combustion air provides enough surface areas with the formation mixed with waste gas and reduce smog.
For this reason, according to one side, the coanda basin body with flank has higher girth (as shown in Figure 5) and the ratio of outer radius 62.As used in this article, outer radius refers to the distance between basin body longitudinal axis 46 and flank top section 60.Such as, traditional do not have the girth (Zhou Bianchang) of the coanda basin body of flank and the ratio of outer radius to be 2 π r/r=2 π.In one example, the girth of the basin body with flank described in this article and odds ratio 2 π of outer radius large.In another example, the ratio of girth and outer radius between 6.5 and 20, in another example between 7.5 and 16, in another example again between 8.5 and 12.
According to one side, flank 18 can be formed along the whole outer surface 38 of coanda basin body 36.Thus, add the surface area of whole basin body 36, thus improve the mixing between waste gas and combustion air along total outer surface as above.
According to another aspect, flank 18 can extend along one or more parts of coanda basin body 36, but less than its whole outer surface 38, thus a part for gas deflector does not have flank, and provides the surface of relative smooth to air-flow.Such as, as shown in Figure 7, low portion 40 and/or the mid portion 44 of coanda basin body 36 can not have flank, and upper part 42 comprises flank.Thus, gas can flow, flow along the mid portion 44 of convex surface and arrive the upper part 42 with flank by the low portion 40 better along coanda basin body 36 before flowing on flank 18 and between flank 18.In addition, the low portion 40 of coanda basin body and/or mid portion 44 is made not to have flank to provide the lower seating portion of coanda basin body 36, thus when basin body 36 is in seated position as shown in Figure 3, the bearing part of this coanda basin body substantially with upper seating potion 30 close contact of supporting arm, to reduce the amount of the waste gas flowed through wherein.In a kind of example, between 5 to 50 percent of the bottom of coanda basin body, do not have flank, upper part comprises flank.In another example, between 10 to 40 percent of the bottom of coanda basin body, do not have flank, upper part comprises flank.In another example, as shown in Figure 8, base section can comprise flank, and at least mid portion and/or top section do not have flank.
As shown in Figures 2 and 8, coanda basin body can comprise the flank 18 of varying number and size, maximize to make the mixing of air/waste gas.Such as, the quantity selecting the flank extended around coanda basin body 36 circumference can be useful, with provide the surface area of increase and to gas/air mixing relevant improvement, still ensure that gas will flow smoothly during operation in total surface area simultaneously.Fig. 2 illustrates a kind of example comprising the relatively wide flank of lesser amt of coanda basin body, and Fig. 8 illustrates another example, wherein, uses the narrower flank 18 of a greater number.Based on this point, in a kind of example, the ratio of the combination circumferential width of the combination circumferential width of one or more flank 18 and the multiple passages 12 between flank 18 between 0.5 and 5, in another example between 1 and 3.In another example, the ratio of the flank radial height above passage bottom and the outer radius of basin body in a kind of example between 0.01 and 0.2, in another example between 0.03 and 0.2.
According on the one hand, be provided with the gas vent 12 for being guided to by waste gas on the outer surface of coanda basin body.As in Figure 2-4, gas vent 12 can comprise the opening 14 of the annular substantially of the exhaust steam passage 10 formed around outer surface 38, thus waste gas can be flowed along outer surface by this opening.Annular opening 14 can comprise shape or such as oval or other shape polygonal of opposing circular.By a kind of scheme, annular opening comprises single annular opening, but can also comprise the multiple openings formed around coanda basin body 36.Annular opening 14 can be formed by the gap between the upper seating potion 30 and the low portion 40 of coanda basin body of supporting arm, thus the waste gas of gas coming through path 10 is left by opening, and flows along outer surface 38.
In a kind of scheme, provide waste gas with relatively high pressure and flow rate.Equipment disclosed herein can be suitable for preferably with the waste gas of high flow rate flowing, because this waste gas through Coanda surface 38 and flank 18, and will aspirate a large amount of combustion air for the smog formation mixed and reduce.
In a kind of scheme, coanda basin body 36 can move between seated position as shown in Figure 3 and raised position as shown in Figure 4.At seated position, the bearing part 30 of the bearing part contact supporting arm of coanda basin body.As mentioned above, at seated position, coanda basin body 36 and supporting arm 8 close contact, thus annular opening 14 is in the close position, and be restricted by gas flowing wherein.At raised position, the seat part of coanda basin body is divided and is raised relative to the bearing part 30 in supporting arm portion, to form gap between which, passes through wherein to flow to allow waste gas to provide annular opening 14.
By a kind of scheme, coanda basin body 36 is biased to closing position, but high pressure exhaust gas contact coanda basin body 36, cause its raised position shown in Fig. 4 of being picked up, thus waste gas can through annular opening 14.Coanda basin body 36 can be biased to closing position by spring 64 as shown in Figure 3.Bar 66 is connected to coanda basin body 36 and spring 64, thus spring 64 is towards seated position drive rod 66 with drive coanda basin body 36 thus.
According to each side, during operation, the waste gas that burn flows by gas passage with by annular opening 14.In the moveable situation of coanda basin body 36, waste gas can make coanda basin body move to raised position, thus gas can leave annular opening 14 and along total outer surface flowing of coanda basin body 36.Along with waste gas flows along outer surface, combustion air (such as surrounding air) is sucked in waste gas and also mixes with it.Waste gas is through flank 18 and by the passage 20 between flank 18.This waste gas is lighted and is burnt, and the smog with minimizing is formed.
