Abstract

Die Zerstäuberdüse weist eine Innenkammer (1) und eine diese mantelförmig umgebende Aussenkammer (2) auf, die mit mehreren sich jeweils überdeckenden Austrittsöffnungen (9,10 bzw. 11,12) versehen sind. Ein Teil der über einen Luftkanal (5) zugeführten Zerstäuberluft strömt in die Innenkammer (1) und dient dort im wesentlichen zur Gleichverteilung eines ebenfalls in die Innenkammer (1) aus einem Brennstoffkanal (3) einströmenden flüssigen Brennstoffs auf ihre Austrittsöffnungen (9,10). Der restliche, grössere Teil der Zerstäuberluft umströmt die Innenkammer (1) durch die Aussenkammer (2) und wird dem aus den Austrittsöffnungen (9,10) der Innenkammer (1) austretenden grob zerstäubten Brennstoff konzentrisch zugemischt. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass flüssige Brennstofffragmente in Kontakt mit den Wänden der Austrittsöffnungen (11,12) der Aussenkammer (2) kommen, und es wird eine hohe Zerstäubungsgüte erreicht.The atomizer nozzle has an inner chamber (1) and an outer chamber (2) which surrounds it in the form of a jacket and which are provided with a plurality of outlet openings (9, 10 and 11, 12) which overlap each other. A portion of the atomizing air supplied via an air duct (5) flows into the inner chamber (1) and is used there essentially for uniform distribution of a liquid fuel also flowing into the inner chamber (1) from a fuel duct (3) onto its outlet openings (9, 10) . The remaining, larger part of the atomizing air flows around the inner chamber (1) through the outer chamber (2) and is mixed in concentrically with the coarsely atomized fuel emerging from the outlet openings (9, 10) of the inner chamber (1). This prevents liquid fuel fragments from coming into contact with the walls of the outlet openings (11, 12) of the outer chamber (2), and a high atomization quality is achieved.

Description

Technisches GebietTechnical field

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Zerstäuberdüse zur Zer­stäubung von flüssigem Brennstoff unter Luftzufuhr.The present invention relates to an atomizer nozzle for atomizing liquid fuel with the supply of air.

Bei der Zerstäubung unter Luftzufuhr wird die zur Zerstäubung erforderliche Energie ausschliesslich oder wenigstens überwie­gend der Zerstäuberluft entnommen.In the case of atomization with the supply of air, the energy required for atomization is drawn exclusively or at least predominantly from the atomizing air.

Die Zerstäubung erfolgt zur anschliessenden Verbrennung des Brennstoffes. Es wird eine möglichst feine Zerstäubung ange­strebt.The atomization takes place for the subsequent combustion of the fuel. The aim is to atomize as finely as possible.

Die Zerstäuberdüse soll den Kopf der Brennerlanze eines Gastur­binenbrenners bilden, um diesen auch für die Verbrennung flüssi­gen Brennstoffs auszubilden. Insbesondere soll sie Verwendung finden bei einem Gasturbinenbrenner mit mehreren an einer ring­förmigen Brennkammer angeordneten Brennerlanzen.The atomizer nozzle is intended to form the head of the burner lance of a gas turbine burner in order to also design it for the combustion of liquid fuel. In particular, it is intended to be used in a gas turbine burner with a plurality of burner lances arranged on an annular combustion chamber.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Aus einem Artikel von Arthur H. Lefebvre, "Airblast Atomiza­tion", Prog. Energy Combust. Sci., Vol 6, pp. 233-261, Pergamon Press Ltd, 1980, sind verschiedene Zerstäuberdüsen der eingangs genannten Art bekannt.From an article by Arthur H. Lefebvre, "Airblast Atomization", Prog. Energy Combust. Sci., Vol 6, pp. 233-261, Pergamon Press Ltd, 1980, various atomizing nozzles of the type mentioned at the outset are known.

Für die beabsichtigte Verwendung in einem Gasturbinenbrenner, insbesondere mit mehreren an einer ringförmigen Brennkammer an­geordneten Brennerlanzen, sind die bekannten Zerstäuberdüsen je­doch sämtlich ungeeignet. Dies gilt besonders im Hinblick auf ihre räumliche Zerstäubungscharakteristik. Sie ist zu stark zen­triert. Eine im beabsichtigten Rahmen einsetzbare Zerstäuberdüse muss eine erheblich weiter aufgefächerte Zerstäubungscharak­teristik aufweisen, um die Querzündung zwischen benachbarten Brennerlanzen der gleichen Brennkammer sicherzustellen. Ande­rerseits muss die Flamme trotz der weiten Zerstäubungscharakte­ristik bei Reduktion der Brennstoffzufuhr bis zu sehr mageren Brennstoff-/Luftverhältnissen erhalten bleiben. Im Hinblick auf eine möglichst schadstoffarme Verbrennung sollte die Zerstäuber­düse zudem eine möglichst hohe Zerstäubungsgüte aufweisen.However, the known atomizer nozzles are all unsuitable for the intended use in a gas turbine burner, in particular with a plurality of burner lances arranged on an annular combustion chamber. This is especially true with regard to their spatial atomization characteristics. It is too centered. An atomizer nozzle that can be used within the intended scope must have a considerably more diversified atomization characteristic in order to ensure the cross-ignition between adjacent burner lances of the same combustion chamber. On the other hand, despite the wide atomization characteristics, the flame must be maintained when the fuel supply is reduced to very lean fuel / air ratios. With regard to combustion that is as low in pollutants as possible, the atomizer nozzle should also have the highest possible atomization quality.

Darstellung der ErfindungPresentation of the invention

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Zerstäuberdüse zur Zerstäubung von flüssigem Brennstoff unter Luftzufuhr an­zugeben, die den vorgenannten Anforderungen gerecht wird.The object of the present invention is to provide an atomizer nozzle for atomizing liquid fuel with air supply, which meets the aforementioned requirements.

Diese sowie weitere Aufgaben werden gemäss der vorliegenden Er­findung gelöst durch die Angabe einer neuen Zerstäuberdüse mit den Merkmalen des Patentnanspruchs 1.These and other objects are achieved according to the present invention by specifying a new atomizer nozzle with the features of patent claim 1.

Die Zerstäuberdüse nach der vorliegenden Erfindung weist demnach u.a. eine Innenkammer und eine diese mantelförmig umgebende Aus­senkammer auf, die mit mehreren sich jeweils überdeckenden Aus­trittsöffnungen versehen sind. Nur ein Teil der Luft strömt in die Innenkammer und dient dort neben einer Grobzerstäubung des ebenfalls in die Innenkammer einströmenden flüssigen Brennstof­fes im wesentlichen zu dessen Gleichverteilung auf ihre Aus­trittsöffnungen. Der andere Teil der Luft umströmt die Innenkam­mer durch die Aussenkammer und wird dem aus den Austrittsöffnun­gen der Innenkammer austretenden grobzerstäubten Brennstoff kon­zentrisch zugemischt. Damit wird verhindert, dass flüssige Brennstofffragmente in Kontakt mit den Wänden der Austrittsöff­nung der Aussenkammer kommen. Dieser Effekt tritt bei den bisher bekannten Zerstäuberdüsen üblicherweise auf und führt zu einer gravierenden Verschlechterung der Zerstäubergüte.The atomizer nozzle according to the present invention accordingly has, inter alia, an inner chamber and an outer chamber surrounding it in the form of a jacket, which are provided with a plurality of outlet openings which overlap each other. Only a part of the air flows into the inner chamber and, in addition to coarse atomization of the liquid fuel also flowing into the inner chamber, serves essentially to distribute it evenly over its outlet openings. The other part of the air flows around the inner chamber through the outer chamber and is mixed in concentrically with the coarsely atomized fuel emerging from the outlet openings of the inner chamber. This prevents liquid fuel fragments from coming into contact with the walls of the outlet opening of the outer chamber. This effect occurs with the so far known atomizer nozzles and leads to a serious deterioration in the atomizer quality.

Mit der erfindungsgemässen Zerstäuberdüse konnte eine erhebliche Verbesserung der Flammenstabilität erreicht werden. Die Flammen­stabilität wird von der Zerstäuberdüse direkt beeinflusst. Je besser die Zerstäubungsgüte, desto schneller können die Brenn­stofftropfen völlig verdampfen und die Flamme nähren.With the atomizing nozzle according to the invention, a considerable improvement in flame stability could be achieved. The flame stability is directly influenced by the atomizer nozzle. The better the atomization quality, the faster the fuel drops can evaporate completely and feed the flame.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der erfindungsgemässen Zerstäuber­düse sind in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen gekennzeichnet.Advantageous refinements of the atomizer nozzle according to the invention are characterized in the dependent claims.

Bester Weg zur Ausführung der ErfindungBest way to carry out the invention

Es wird nunmehr auf die Zeichnungen Bezug genommen. In Fig. 1 ist in geschnittener Darstellung eine Zerstäuberdüse dargestellt mit einer Innenkammer 1 und einer Aussenkammer 2. Die Aussenkam­mer 2 umgibt die Innenkammer 1 mantelförmig. Sie weist eine an­nähernd halbkugelschalenförmige Form auf.Reference is now made to the drawings. In Fig. 1, an atomizer nozzle is shown in a sectional view with an inner chamber 1 and an outer chamber 2. The outer chamber 2 surrounds the inner chamber 1 in a jacket shape. It has an approximately hemispherical shape.

In die Innenkammer 1 münden ein zentraler Brennstoffkanal 3 und ein diesen mit gleicher Achse 4 umgebender Luftkanal 5 über Ein­trittsöffnungen 6 bzw. 7. Der Luftkanal steht ausserdem über Verbindungsöffnungen 8 mit der Aussenkammer 2 in Verbindung. Die Eintrittsöffnung 7 des Luftkanals 5 in die Innenkammer weist entweder einen ringförmigen Querschnitt auf oder wird durch meh­rere, ringförmig verteilte Einzelöffnungen gebildet. Gleiches gilt für die Verbindungsöffnungen 8.A central fuel channel 3 and an air channel 5 surrounding it with the same axis 4 open into the inner chamber 1 via inlet openings 6 and 7. The air channel is also connected to the outer chamber 2 via connecting openings 8. The inlet opening 7 of the air duct 5 points into the inner chamber either an annular cross-section or is formed by several annularly distributed individual openings. The same applies to the connection openings 8.

Auf ihrer den Eintrittsöffnungen 6 und 7 gegenüberliegenden Seite ist die Innenkammer 1 mit mehreren Austritssöffnungen 9,10 versehen. Es sind vier Austrittsöffnungen 9 und vier Austritts­öffnungen 10 vorgesehen. Die Austrittsöffnungen 9 schliessen mit der Achse 4 einen Winkel (Polarwinkel) im Bereich zwischen 20° und 45°, vorzugsweise jedoch von 25° ein. Die Austrittsöffnungen 10 schliessen mit der Achse 4 einen Winkel im Bereich zwischen 45° und 70°, vorzugsweise jedoch von 65° ein.On its side opposite the inlet openings 6 and 7, the inner chamber 1 is provided with a plurality of outlet openings 9, 10. Four outlet openings 9 and four outlet openings 10 are provided. The outlet openings 9 form an angle (polar angle) in the range between 20 ° and 45 °, but preferably of 25 °, with the axis 4. The outlet openings 10 form an angle with the axis 4 in the range between 45 ° and 70 °, but preferably of 65 °.

Die Austrittsöffnungen 9 und 10 sind bezüglich einer Drehung um die Achse 4 um einen Winkel von 45° (Azimutwinkel) gegeneinander versetzt.The outlet openings 9 and 10 are offset from one another with respect to a rotation about the axis 4 by an angle of 45 ° (azimuth angle).

Zu ihren Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 hin verjüngt sich der Quer­schnitt der Innenkammer 1. In Richtung von ihren Eintrittsöff­nungen 6,7 zu ihren Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 hin ist die Innen­kammer zunächst zylindrisch, dann kegelstumpfförmig. Die Aus­trittsöffnungen 9,10 gehen von dem kegelstumpfförmigen Teil aus und zwar bezüglich der genanten Richtung bzw. der Achse 4 vom gleichen Querschnitt und mit übereinstimmendem Abstand von die­ser Achse. Die Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bilden demnach in der In­nenkammer 1 eine ringförmige Lochreihe.The cross section of the inner chamber 1 tapers towards its outlet openings 9, 10. In the direction from its inlet openings 6, 7 towards its outlet openings 9, 10, the inner chamber is initially cylindrical, then frustoconical. The outlet openings 9, 10 emanate from the frustoconical part, with respect to the said direction or the axis 4, of the same cross-section and at a corresponding distance from this axis. The outlet openings 9, 10 accordingly form an annular row of holes in the inner chamber 1.

Die Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 münden in die Aus­senkammer 2. Letztere weist entsprechend viele Austrittsöffnun­gen 11,12 auf, die sich mit den Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer überdecken. Der Querschnitt der Austrittsöffnungen 11,12 der Aussenkammer 2 ist grässer als der Querschnitt der Austrittsöffnungen der Innenkammer 1. Er entspricht vorzugsweise der Summe des Querschnittes der Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 und dem ringförmigen Querschnitt der Oeffnungen der Aussenkammer 2 zu ihren Austrittsöffnungen hin. Der letztge­nannte ringförmige Querschnitt ergibt sich zu π.D.W, wobei D den Durchmesser der Austrittsöffnungen 11,12 der Aussenkammer 2 und W ihre Weite an ihren Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bedeuten.The outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1 open into the outer chamber 2. The latter has a correspondingly large number of outlet openings 11, 12 which overlap with the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber. The cross section of the outlet openings 11, 12 of the outer chamber 2 is larger than the cross section of the outlet openings of the inner chamber 1. It preferably corresponds to the sum of the cross section of the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1 and the annular cross section of the openings of the outer chamber 2 towards their outlet openings. The latter annular cross section results in π.DW, where D den Diameters of the outlet openings 11, 12 of the outer chamber 2 and W mean their width at their outlet openings 9, 10.

Die Austrittsöffnungen 11,12 der Aussenkammer 2 erweitern sich nach aussen kegelförmig.The outlet openings 11, 12 of the outer chamber 2 expand conically outwards.

Die Wirkungsweise der beschriebenen Zerstäuberdüse ist die fol­gende:The operation of the atomizer nozzle described is as follows:

Ueber den Brennstoffkanal 3 wird ein flüssiger Brennstoff, bei­spielsweise Oel, unter geringem Ueberdruck zugeführt. Durch die Eintrittsöffnung 6 strömt der Brennstoff in die Innenkammer 1 ein. Der Durchmesser der Eintrittsöffnung 6 ist etwa 10-fach kleiner als der Durchmesser des Brennstoffkanals 3 und im Bereich zwischen 0,6 mm und etwa 1,2 mm gewählt. Wesentlich kleinere Durchmesser als 0,6 mm sind aus Gründen der Verstop­fungsgefahr der Eintrittsöffnung von Nachteil.A liquid fuel, for example oil, is supplied via the fuel channel 3 under a slight excess pressure. The fuel flows into the inner chamber 1 through the inlet opening 6. The diameter of the inlet opening 6 is approximately 10 times smaller than the diameter of the fuel channel 3 and is selected in the range between 0.6 mm and approximately 1.2 mm. Much smaller diameters than 0.6 mm are disadvantageous due to the risk of clogging of the inlet opening.

Der genannte Durchmesser, der geringe Ueberdruck des Brennstoffs im Brennstoffkanal 3 sowie die Länge der Innenkammer 1 von ihrer Eintrittsöffnung 6 bis zu ihrer gegenüberliegenden Wand sind so aufeinander abgestimmt, dass sich ein dünner, etwa auf die Mitte der gegenüberliegenden Wand treffender Brennstoffstrahl ergibt. Die Länge der Innenkammer 1 sollte deswegen nicht grösser als das ca. 20-fache des Durchmessers ihrer Eintritts­öffnung 6 sein.The diameter mentioned, the slight overpressure of the fuel in the fuel channel 3 and the length of the inner chamber 1 from its inlet opening 6 to its opposite wall are coordinated with one another in such a way that a thin fuel jet, approximately hitting the center of the opposite wall, results. The length of the inner chamber 1 should therefore not be greater than approximately 20 times the diameter of its inlet opening 6.

Beim Auftreffen auf die der Eintrittsöffnung 6 gegenüberliegende Wand wird der flüssige Brennstoff grob zerstäubt.When it hits the wall opposite the inlet opening 6, the liquid fuel is roughly atomized.

Ueber den Luftkanal 5 wird Zerstäuberluft zugeführt und zwar ebenfalls unter Ueberdruck. Dieser Ueberdruck beträgt etwa das 1,05- bis 1,3-fache, vorzugsweise das 1,2-fache des Aussen­druckes in der Umgebung der Zerstäuberdüse. Die Zerstäuberluft muss den grössten Teil der für die Zerstäubung des flüssigen Brennstoffes erforderlichen Energie liefern.Atomizing air is supplied via the air duct 5 and also under excess pressure. This overpressure is approximately 1.05 to 1.3 times, preferably 1.2 times the external pressure in the vicinity of the atomizing nozzle. The atomizing air must supply most of the energy required to atomize the liquid fuel.

Ein Teil der über den Luftkanal 5 zugeführten Zerstäuberluft tritt über die Eintrittsöffnung 7 in die Innenkammer 1 ein. Sie dient dort dazu, den, wie vorstehend beschrieben, durch Auftref­fen auf ihre den Eintrittsöffnungen 6,7 gegenüberliegenden Wand grob zerstäubten Brennstoff durch ihre Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 gleichmässig verteilt auszutreiben.Some of the atomizing air supplied via the air duct 5 enters the inner chamber 1 via the inlet opening 7. It serves there, as described above, to expel the fuel which has been roughly atomized by striking its wall opposite the inlet openings 6, 7 through its outlet openings 9, 10.

Es sei betont, dass es hier vornehmlich auf eine möglichst gute Gleichverteilung des Brennstoffs auf die einzelnen Austrittsöff­nungen 9,10 und weniger bereits auf eine Zerstäubung mit der letztlich gewünschten Güte ankommt.It should be emphasized that it is primarily a question of the best possible uniform distribution of the fuel to the individual outlet openings 9, 10 and less of an atomization with the ultimately desired quality.

Eine besonders gute Zerstäubung ist durch das Austreiben aus den Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 allein auch gar nicht erreichbar, da ein Teil des Brennstoffs die Wände der Austritts­öffnungen 9,10 benetzt und einen Wandfilm bildet. Die gewünschte hohe Zerstäubergüte wird erst durch die Aussenkammer 2 erreicht.A particularly good atomization cannot be achieved by being expelled from the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1 alone, since part of the fuel wets the walls of the outlet openings 9, 10 and forms a wall film. The desired high atomization quality is only achieved by the outer chamber 2.

Der Hauptteil der durch den Luftkanal 5 zugeführten Zerstäuber­luft tritt über die Verbindungsöffnungen 8 in die Aussenkammer 2 ein und umströmt in dieser die Innenkammer 1. An ihren sich mit den Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 überdeckenden Aus­trittsöffnungen 11,12 legt sich die durch die Aussenkammer 2 strömende Zerstäuberluft konzentrisch um das aus den Austritts­öffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 austretende Brennstoffaerosol. Dies ist in Fig. 2 verdeutlicht. Durch diesen Effekt wird sicher verhindert, dass die Brennstofftropfen des aus der Innenkammer 1 austretenden Brennstoffaerosols mit den Wänden der Austrittsöff­nungen 11,12 in Berührung kommen. Dadurch wird eine erhebliche Verbesserung der Zerstäubergüte erreicht.The main part of the atomizing air supplied through the air duct 5 enters the outer chamber 2 via the connecting openings 8 and flows around the inner chamber 1 2 atomizing air flowing concentrically around the fuel aerosol emerging from the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1. This is illustrated in Fig. 2. This effect reliably prevents the fuel drops of the fuel aerosol emerging from the inner chamber 1 from coming into contact with the walls of the outlet openings 11, 12. This leads to a considerable improvement in the atomizing quality.

Damit der Hauptteil der Zerstäuberluft, vorzugsweise ca. 70 - 80 %, durch die Aussenkammer 2 strömt, muss deren Strö­mungswiderstand und der Strömungswiderstand der Verbindungs­öffnungen 8 in geeigneter Weise im Verhältnis zum Strömungs­widerstand durch die Innenkammer 1 bemessen sein. Der Durchmes­ser der Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 sollte bei insgesamt acht Austrittsöffnungen etwa einen Faktor 1,33 grösser als der Durchmesser ihrer Eintrittsöffnung 6.So that the main part of the atomizing air, preferably approx. 70-80%, flows through the outer chamber 2, its flow resistance and the flow resistance of the connection openings 8 must be dimensioned in a suitable manner in relation to the flow resistance through the inner chamber 1. The diameter of the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1 should be A total of eight outlet openings are approximately a factor 1.33 larger than the diameter of their inlet opening 6.

Von Vorteil ist es, wenn sich in der Aussenkammer 2 an ihren Austrittsöffnungen 11,12 die grösste Strömungsgeschwindigkeit einstellt. Der Strömungsquerschnitt der Aussenkammer 2 sollte deshalb dort am geringsten sein.It is advantageous if the greatest flow velocity is set in the outer chamber 2 at its outlet openings 11, 12. The flow cross section of the outer chamber 2 should therefore be the smallest there.

Weiter ist es von Vorteil, den Strömungsquerschnitt der Aussen­kammer 2 zwischen ihren Austrittsöffnungen 11,12 grösser auszu­bilden als zwischen diesen Austrittsöffnungen und den Verbin­dungsöffnungen 8. Dadurch wird eine gleichmässige Ummantelung des aus den Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 der Innenkammer 1 austreten­den Brennstoffaerosols erreicht. Vorzugsweise werden dazu Nuten 13, die in Fig. 1 strichliert angedeutet sind, zwischen den Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bzw. 11,12 in der die Innenkammer 1 von der Aussenkammer 2 trennenden Wand auf ihrer der letzteren zugewandeten Seite vorgesehen.It is also advantageous to make the flow cross-section of the outer chamber 2 larger between its outlet openings 11, 12 than between these outlet openings and the connecting openings 8. This results in a uniform coating of the fuel aerosol emerging from the outlet openings 9, 10 of the inner chamber 1. For this purpose, grooves 13, which are indicated by dashed lines in FIG. 1, are preferably provided between the outlet openings 9, 10 and 11, 12 in the wall separating the inner chamber 1 from the outer chamber 2 on its side facing the latter.

Durch die gewählten Winkel der Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bzw. 11,12 relativ zur Achse 4, insbesondere durch die Aufteilung der Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bzw. 11,12 auf zwei Gruppen 9,11 und 10,12 mit unterschiedlichen Winkeln wird eine im Hinblick auf die beabsichtigte Verwendung in einer Gasturbinenbrennkammer op­timale räumliche Zerstäubungscharakteristik erreicht. Durch die Austrittsöffnungen 10,12 wird eine sichere Querzündung zu be­nachbarten gleichartigen Brennern garantiert. Die Austrittsöff­nungen 9,11 garantieren dagegen durch ihren geringeren Winkel zur Achse 4 die Stabilität der Flamme bis zu sehr mageren Brenn­stoff-/Luftverhältnissen hin.The selected angles of the outlet openings 9, 10 and 11, 12 relative to the axis 4, in particular by dividing the outlet openings 9, 10 and 11, 12 into two groups 9, 11 and 10, 12 with different angles make one in view achieved optimal spatial atomization characteristics for the intended use in a gas turbine combustion chamber. A reliable cross-ignition to neighboring burners of the same type is guaranteed by the outlet openings 10, 12. The outlet openings 9, 11, on the other hand, guarantee the stability of the flame up to very lean fuel / air conditions due to their smaller angle to the axis 4.

Schliesslich ist die gewählte Anzahl von lediglich insgesamt acht Austrittsöffnungen 9,10 bzw. 11,12 insoweit von Vorteil, dass sich bei dieser Anzahl im Zentrum des Strömungsfeldes keine, ihre Weite einengende Unterdruckzone ausbilden kann. Zwischen den Austrittsöffnungen ist genügend Raum für einen Druckausgleich.Finally, the selected number of only a total of eight outlet openings 9, 10 or 11, 12 is advantageous to the extent that, given this number, no negative pressure zone constricting its width can form in the center of the flow field. There is enough space between the outlet openings for pressure equalization.
