Inventor is contemplated for why including the buner system of hole flame holder 102 and providing such clean combustion
Various explanations.
In one aspect, it can not stablize even in conventional flame holder under the specified conditions of support combustion reaction, there is hole
Flame holder 102 still functions as thermal source to maintain combustion reaction.Using the ability with using than usual feasible poorer combustion
Material supports burning with oxidant mixture.Therefore, according to one embodiment, have in fuel and the contact of oxidant mixture 112
The average fuel of the point of the input face 212 of hole flame holder 102, fuel and oxidant mixture 112 is less than with oxidant ratio
(routine) lower flammability limit-" lower flammability limit " of the fuel element of The fuel stream is defined when fuel/air mixture is in normal atmosphere
The minimum fuel that fuel/air mixture will burn when being exposed to instantaneous point burning things which may cause a fire disaster under pressure and 25 DEG C of (77 °F) environment temperatures
Concentration.
According to one kind explanation, by the one or more fuel and oxidant mixture 112 for thering is hole flame holder 102 to support
Can be than providing the stable mixture more lean combustion (fuel-lean) burnt in normal burner.With being arrived close to lean limit
The mixture at fuel-rich limit range center is compared, and the burning close to fuel combustion lower limit is generally fired under relatively low adiabatic flame temperature
Burn.Compared with higher flame temperature, lower flame temp generally disengages the NOx of low concentration.In conventional flame, too poor combustion
Burn through is often associated with the high CO concentration under stacking.By contrast, it was found that as described herein to have the He of hole flame holder 102
Include hole flame holder 102 system provide CO substantially completely burning (to the concentration that can't detect under units ppm,
It is specifically dependent upon experiment condition), while supporting low NOx.In certain embodiments, inventor, which realizes, is understood to very poor
Mixture under stacking (although only producing about 3% or lower measuring O2Concentration) stable burning.In addition, it has been recognised by the inventors that
Perforated wall 308 may act as the radiator of combustible fluid.Alternatively or additionally, the effect can reduce burning temperature
Degree.
Explained, if combustion reaction 302 occurs in one very short duration, can reduced according to another
NOx generation.Conflagration causes reactant (including oxygen and the nitrogen carried under one's arms) to be short to deficiency exposed to the time of NOx formation temperature
So that NOx Cambium periodicities cause NOx notable generation.Compared with conventional flame, reactant is by there is hole flame holder 102
The required time is very short.Therefore, the low NOx associated with there is hole flame holder burning, which is produced, (and to be carried under one's arms with reactant
Nitrogen) it is relevant compared with short duration needed for hole flame holder 102 by having.
For CO is oxidized into carbon dioxide (CO2) for, because CO oxidation reactions are relatively slow reactions, examine
Consider it is low-down measure (experiment and full-scale scale) CO concentration, through having the time of hole flame holder (may add from
Have hole flame holder 102 towards flue elapsed time) it is clearly sufficient and in sufficiently high temperature.

Have in the flame holder of hole and extinguish, then pilot flame can be provided or other incendiary sources (for example, igniting and startup flame source 120) come
Light fuel and oxidant mixture.
Proceed to decision sub-step 418, if sensing combustion instability, method 400 can be withdrawn into step 424, its
Middle error process program.For example, error handler may include to close The fuel stream, re-execute preheating step 402, regulation
Fuel and/or air mass flow or direction, export alarm signal, light standby combustion system or other steps.If in sub-step
Determine there is the burning in the flame holder of hole to be stable in 418, then method 400 proceeds to decision sub-step 420, wherein determining
Whether should change burning parameter.If no combustion parameter will change, this method circulation returns to sub-step (in step 404)
Rapid 410, and the process that burns away.If it is indicated that the change of combustion parameter, then method 400 proceeds to sub-step 422, wherein performing
Combustion parameter changes.After combustion parameter changes, this method circulation returns to sub-step 410 (in step 404), and burns away.
If for example, running into heat demand change, change burning parameter can be arranged.For example, if necessary to less heat
(such as due to the industrial process output of the electricity needs of reduction, the power demand of reduction or reduction), then can be in sub-step 422
Middle reduction fuel and oxidizer flow rate.If on the contrary, heat demand increase, can increase fuel and oxidizer flow rate.Except this
