The air heating method according to the second embodiment of the present invention is different from the air heating method of the first embodiment in that, in the second embodiment, the flue gas temperature T2 after combustion of the fuel is measured, and the amounts of primary air and fuel are adjusted according to the flue gas temperature T2. By controlling the flue gas temperature T2 after the fuel is combusted, the combustion can be fully combusted, and the combustion products are cleaner.
Also, it is preferable to measure the heated air temperature T1 at the outlet of the air heater 70, and adjust the amount of secondary air via the third valve 783 on the secondary air line 763, the amount of fuel via the fourth valve 784 on the fuel line 723, or both, according to the heated air temperature T1, which ensures that the air is sufficiently combusted, the combustion products are cleaner, fuel utilization efficiency is improved, and it ensures that the heated air temperature T1 provided by the air heater 70 is maintained within a desired range, and the adjustment is more flexible, easier to operate and adjust, and optimized for use.
Meanwhile, by optimizing the structure of the burner 72, rotational flow airflow is generated, the turbulence degree is high, the mixing effect is good, the structure of the secondary air distributor 73 is optimized, secondary air which is uniformly distributed on the cross section of the air heating furnace 70 is provided, the mixing of fuel and combustion-supporting air is facilitated, the heated air output by the air heating furnace 70 is uniformly mixed, the temperature T1 of the heated air is more uniform, and the high stability and ultralow NO of the heating furnace are ensuredxAnd (4) discharging and improving the performance of the air heating furnace 70.
And secondary air enters the hearth through the air distributor 73 and is mixed with high-temperature flue gas of high-strength rotational flow, so that the mixing effect is enhanced, the mixed gas is more uniform and stable, and the radial and axial temperature uniformity in the hearth can be effectively ensured. The outlet portion of the air heating furnace 70 is provided with a static mixer 75, which rotates while the fluid flows through the static mixer, constantly changing the flow direction, pushing not only the central fluid flow toward the periphery but also the peripheral fluid flow toward the center, thereby causing a good radial mixing effect. The perfect radial circulation mixing effect enables the temperature gradient, the velocity gradient and the mass gradient of the heated air on the cross section of the output pipeline to be obviously reduced.
The air heating method according to the second embodiment of the present invention is also not limited to the specific structure shown in fig. 14, the specific structure shown in fig. 14 is for convenience of explanation, and the air heating method according to the second embodiment of the present invention may include only the following steps:
introducing primary air and fuel into a burner of the air heating furnace to fully combust the fuel;
introducing secondary air outside a combustion area of a combustor in a hearth of the air heating furnace, and mixing the secondary air with flue gas generated after fuel combustion; and
outputting the mixed heated air from an outlet of the air heating furnace for use;
measuring the temperature of the flue gas after the fuel is combusted, and adjusting the amount of primary air according to the temperature of the flue gas.
Measuring the heated air temperature at the outlet of the air heating furnace, and adjusting the amount of secondary air and/or fuel according to the heated air temperature at the outlet.
Preferably, the order of introduction of the primary air and of the secondary air can be adjusted according to the temperature of the air heated at the outlet, and/or the primary air is introduced in a swirling manner and the secondary air is introduced in a uniformly distributed manner along the cross section of the air heating furnace.
The different burner configurations, air distributor configurations and static mixer configurations described in the air heating furnace according to various embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other to form new embodiments that differ from the illustrated embodiments, all within the scope of the present invention.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the application and is illustrative of the principles of the technology employed. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific combination of the above-mentioned features, but also covers other embodiments formed by any combination of the above-mentioned features or their equivalents without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
