Abstract
Description
Oftmaliges kurzes Einschalten des Brenners einer Heizanlage, infolge geringen Wärmebedarfs in den wärmeren Jahreszeiten, führt nicht nur zu einem starken Verschleiß des Brenners, sondern auch zu starker Verschmutzung der Düsen und anderer Brennteile.Frequently briefly switching on the burner of a heating system, due to the low heat requirement in the warmer seasons, not only leads to excessive wear on the burner, but also to severe contamination of the nozzles and other burned parts.
Vor allem aber entsteht bei jedem Start eine extrem hohe Schadstoffemission, die mehr als das 1000-fache des normalen Emissionswertes erreichen kann.Above all, however, there is an extremely high pollutant emission with every start, which can reach more than 1000 times the normal emission value.
Aus der OS-DE 33 45 705 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung zur Brennersteuerung bekannt, bei der in Abhängigkeit des Zustandes eines aufzuheizenden Mediums, über eine Messung der Brennzeit und der gesamten Zykluszeit, die Brennleistung gesteuert wird, um den Brenner im jeweils günstigsten Arbeitspunkt zu betreiben.From OS-DE 33 45 705 A1 a device for burner control is known in which, depending on the state of a medium to be heated, a measurement of the burning time and the total cycle time, the burning power is controlled in order to operate the burner at the most favorable operating point .
Der Nachteil einer derartigen Brennersteuerung besteht darin, daß ein relativ hoher und kostenintensiver Installationsaufwand betrieben werden muß, um z.B. schon vorhandene, nur über einen Thermostatkontakt gesteuerte Brenner, aufrüsten zu können. Weiterhin lassen sich Brenner mit nur einer oder zwei Leistungsstufen durch eine derartige Vorrichtung nicht nachrüsten.The disadvantage of such a burner control is that a relatively high and cost-intensive installation effort has to be carried out, e.g. to be able to upgrade existing burners that are only controlled via a thermostat contact. Furthermore, burners with only one or two power levels cannot be retrofitted with such a device.
Hier greift die Erfindung ein, die es auf einfache Weise ermöglicht, die Anzahl der Starts des Brenners zu reduzieren, um damit den Brenner zu schützen, dessen Lebensdauer zu erhöhen und insgesamt die Anlage umweltfreundlicher zu machen. Erfindungsgemäss lassen sich nun auch Brenner nachrüsten, die z.B. nur eine Leistungsstufe besitzen.This is where the invention comes in, which makes it possible to reduce the number of times the burner is started in a simple manner, in order to protect the burner, increase its service life and, overall, make the system more environmentally friendly. According to the invention, burners can now also be retrofitted which, for example, have only one power level.
Erfindungsgemäss wird vorgeschlagen, abhängig von der Einschaltdauer des Brenners, durch Öffnen eines Pausenkontaktes eine Pause bis zum nächsten Einschalten zu erzwingen, wobei durch eine Zeitmeßeinrichtung die tatsächliche Einschaltdauer des Brenners gemessen und davon abhängig die Pausenzeit gegensinnig-variabel bestimmt wird, d.h. daß, die Pausenzeit in einem extern einstellbaren, reziproken Verhältnis zur Einschaltdauer des Brenners steht. Das hat zur Folge, daß bei kurzer Einschaltdauer, entsprechend geringem Wärmebedarf, eine längere Pause vorgesehen wird, hingegen bei einer längeren Einschaltdauer des Brenners, entsprechend höherem Wärmebedarf, eine kürzere Pause eintritt.According to the invention it is proposed, depending on the on-time of the burner, to force a pause until the next switch-on by opening a pause contact, the actual on-time of the burner being measured by a time measuring device and the pause time being determined in a mutually variable manner, that is, the pause time has an externally adjustable, reciprocal ratio to the burner's duty cycle. The consequence of this is that a longer pause is provided for a short on-time, corresponding to a low heat requirement, whereas a shorter pause occurs for a longer on-time of the burner, correspondingly a higher heat requirement.
Eine derartige gegensinnig-variable Pausenzeit kann man dadurch einfach erreichen, daß eine maximale Pausenzeit einprogrammiert ist, die um ein konstantes Vielfaches der jeweiligen Einschaltdauer des Brenners verkürzt wird. Bei längerer Einschaltdauer des Brenners führt dies sogar zu einer Verkürzung der Pausenzeit auf '0', wodurch die volle Heizleistung des Brenners genutzt werden kann.Such an oppositely variable pause time can be easily achieved by programming a maximum pause time that is a constant multiple of the respective burner on time is shortened. If the burner is switched on for a longer period of time, this even reduces the pause time to '0', which means that the burner's full heating output can be used.
Erfindungsgemäß wird bei mehrstufigen oder regelbaren Brennersystemen vorgeschlagen, abhängig von der Einschaltdauer, die Brennerleistung veränderbar zu steuern.According to the invention, it is proposed in multi-stage or controllable burner systems to control the burner output in a variable manner depending on the duty cycle.
Dies kann z. B. erfindungsgemäß dadurch erfolgen, daß in der Regelung ein oder mehrere voreinstellbare Einschaltdauern programmierbar sind, bei deren Unterschreiten der Brenner in seiner Leistung auf eine niedrigere Stufe geschaltet wird.This can e.g. B. according to the invention in that one or more presettable duty cycles are programmable in the control, when the burner is below its power is switched to a lower level.
Erst wenn in einem Zyklus die Pause '0' erreicht, erhält der Brenner das Kommando, wieder auf höhere Leistung zu schalten.Only when the pause reaches '0' in a cycle does the burner receive the command to switch back to higher output.
Je nach Größe und Lage der Räume kann es sinnvoll sein, die maximale Pausenzeit und/oder die Vervielfachungskonstante einstellbar zu machen, um optimale Verhältnisse zu erreichen.Depending on the size and location of the rooms, it can make sense to make the maximum break time and / or the multiplication constant adjustable in order to achieve optimal conditions.
Um in extremen Situationen in das Regelprogramm eingreifen zu können, z. B. beim Durchlüften von Räumen im Winter, wird empfohlen, einen Überbrückungskontakt zum Pausenkontakt vorzusehen.In order to be able to intervene in the control program in extreme situations, e.g. B. when ventilating rooms in winter, it is recommended to provide a bridging contact to the break contact.
Dieser Überbrückungskontakt kann auch ein Thermostatkontakt sein, der bei Unterschreiten einer Minimaltemperatur von z. B. 16° C schließt.This bridging contact can also be a thermostat contact, which falls below a minimum temperature of z. B. 16 ° C closes.
Nachstehend wird ein einfaches Beispiel einer erfindungsgemäßen Regelung vorgestellt, das schematisch den Erfindungsgedanken beschreibt. Dieses Beispiel ist nicht als beschränkend aufzufassen, sondern es können beliebige äquivalente Lösungen vorgesehen werden, da angesichts der heutigen Möglichkeiten mit Mikro-Prozessoren auch komplexe Rechenprogramme zur Ermittlung der Pausenzeiten herangezogen werden können. Wesentlich bleibt die Ermittlung der benötigen Wärmemenge aus dem Verhältnis von Brenndauer bzw. Pause.A simple example of a regulation according to the invention is presented below, which describes the concept of the invention schematically. This example is not to be regarded as restrictive, but any equivalent solutions can be provided, since in view of the Today's possibilities with micro-processors can also be used for complex computer programs to determine the break times. The determination of the amount of heat required from the ratio of the burning time or pause remains essential.
Figur 1 zeigt das Funktionsdiagramm einer bisherigen Temperatursteuerung zwischen zwei Festtemperaturen T₁ und T. Sobald die Raumtemperatur unter den Wert T₁ absinkt, wird der Brenner bzw. die Heizung eingeschaltet, bis die Temperatur T erreicht wird. Dann schaltet der Thermostat ab usf. usf.Figure 1 shows the functional diagram of a previous temperature control between two fixed temperatures T₁ and T. As soon as the room temperature drops below the value T₁, the burner or the heater is switched on until the temperature T is reached. Then the thermostat switches off and so on.
Daraus erfolgt der Temperaturverlauf (14). Die in Figur 1 eingetragenen Blöcke zeigen den jeweiligen Einschaltzustand des Brenners. Bei sonst konstanten Bedingungen ergeben sich etwa gleiche Einschaltzeiten (12) und Pausenzeiten (13).This results in the temperature profile (14). The blocks entered in FIG. 1 show the respective switch-on state of the burner. If the conditions are otherwise constant, the switch-on times (12) and pause times (13) are approximately the same.
Bei warmen Wetter, d.h. geringem Wärmebedarf und gedrosseltem Wasserumlauf, können die Einschaltzeiten sehr kurz und zahlreich werden.In warm weather, i.e. low heat requirement and restricted water circulation, the switch-on times can be very short and numerous.
Figur 2 ist ein entsprechendes Funktionsdiagramm für eine erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung.Figure 2 is a corresponding functional diagram for a device according to the invention.
Figur 3 zeigt das schematische Schaltbild einer erfindungsgemäßen Pausensteuerung.FIG. 3 shows the schematic circuit diagram of a break control according to the invention.
Der Brenner (1) wird von dem Thermostatkontakt (2) über den normalerweise geschlossenen Pausenkontakt (4) eingeschaltet. Gleichzeitig erhält die Zeitsteuerung (6) über die Leitung (7) die Information, daß der Brenner (1) eingeschaltet ist.The burner (1) is switched on by the thermostat contact (2) via the normally closed break contact (4). At the same time, the time control (6) receives the information via line (7) that the burner (1) is switched on.
Sobald der Thermostatkontakt (2) wieder öffnet, beendet die Steuerung (6) die Zeitmessung, wie lange der Brenner (1) eingeschaltet war. Gleichzeitig betätigt die Zeitsteuerung (6) über das Relais (5) den Pausenkontakt (4), öffnet diesen und sperrt damit ein Wiedereinschalten des Brenners (1).As soon as the thermostat contact (2) opens again, the control ends (6) the time measurement of how long the burner (1) was on. At the same time, the timer (6) actuates the pause contact (4) via the relay (5), opens it and thus prevents the burner (1) from being switched on again.
Die Zeitsteuerung (6) kann beispielsweise nach der Formel
Dabei bedeutet
- Tp =
- Pausenzeit
- Pm =
- Max. Pausenzeit (Zykluszeit)
- K =
- Vervielfältigungskonstante
- TBr =
- Einschaltzeit des Brenners
Here means
- T p =
- break time
- Pm =
- Max. Pause time (cycle time)
- K =
- Duplication constant
- T Br =
- Burner on time
Figur 4 zeigt den Verlauf der Einschaltzeit des Brenners und daraus abgeleitet die Pausenzeit Tp . Im Beispiel Figur 4 ist angenommen, daß die maximale Pausenzeit Pm vierzig Minuten und die Vervielfältigungskonstante K = 1 beträgt, d.h. je Minute Einschaltzeit des Brenners verkürzt sich die Pause ebenfalls um eine Minute. Das heißt, von der max. Pausenzeit (Zykluszeit) geht außer der Brenndauer für jede Minute Brenndauer auch eine Minute Pausenzeitverkürzung ab.FIG. 4 shows the course of the burner's switch-on time and the pause time T p derived therefrom. In the example in FIG. 4, it is assumed that the maximum pause time Pm is forty minutes and the reproduction constant K = 1, ie the pause is also shortened by one minute per minute of burner on time. That means from the max. In addition to the burning time for each minute of burning time, the pause time (cycle time) is also reduced by one minute of the pause time.
Der Punkt (11) in Figur 4 im Schnittpunkt der Geraden Tp und TBr bedeutet, daß in diesem Beispiel nach zwanzig Minuten Brenndauer die Pausenzeit Tp auf '0' geschrumpft ist.The point (11) in FIG. 4 at the intersection of the straight lines T p and T Br means that in this example the pause time T p has shrunk to '0' after twenty minutes of burning time.
Figur 6 zeigt schematisch den Aufbau einer digitalen Zeitsteuerung, die in der Lage ist, die in Figur 1 gezeigte Pausenschaltung zu realisieren.FIG. 6 schematically shows the structure of a digital time control which is able to implement the pause circuit shown in FIG. 1.
Eine solche Zeitsteuerung kann z. B. aus einem digitalen Zeitimpulsgeber (16) und einem Impulszähler (17) aufgebaut werden.Such a timing can, for. B. from a digital time pulse generator (16) and a pulse counter (17).
Der Zeitimpulsgeber (16) ist z. B. so ausgelegt, daß man wahlweise Zeitimpulse nach 60,45,30 oder 15 Sekunden abgreifen kann, um sie dem Impulszähler (17) zuzuführen. Der Zeitimpulsgeber (16) wird jeweils nach Ablauf der maximalen Zeit von 60 Sekunden wieder auf '0' zurückgestellt.The time pulse generator (16) is, for. B. designed so that you can select time pulses after 60,45,30 or 15 seconds to feed them to the pulse counter (17). The time pulse generator (16) is reset to '0' after the maximum time of 60 seconds.
Bei Einstellung einer verkürzten Impulszeit mittels des Knopfes (9) erfolgt die Rückstellung des Zeitimpulsgebers (16) vorzeitig über die Reset-Leitung (23).If a shorter pulse time is set using the button (9), the time pulse generator (16) is reset prematurely via the reset line (23).
Am Impulszähler (17) wird mit dem Einstellknopf (8) die maximale Impulszahl eingestellt, bei der die Pausen beendet und der Brenner wieder vom Thermostat (2) eingeschaltet werden kann. Die Anzahl der maximalen Impulse können dabei von dem Display (19) abgelesen werden.The maximum number of pulses at which the breaks can be ended and the burner can be switched on again by the thermostat (2) is set on the pulse counter (17) using the adjusting knob (8). The number of maximum pulses can be read off the display (19).
Auf einem zweiten Display (18) kann, falls gewünscht, auch die aktuelle Anzahl der Impulse abgelesen werden, welche im jeweiligen Zyklus abgelaufen sind.If desired, the current number of pulses which have elapsed in the respective cycle can also be read on a second display (18).
Sobald der Thermostat (2) einschaltet, erhält auch das Relais (20) über die Leitung (7) Spannung und schaltet den Kontakt (22), der die Aufgabe hat, die Taktzeiten umzuschalten, auf die Leitung (25) und damit über den Wahlschalter (9) auf eine der verkürzten Taktzeiten, z.B. wie dargestellt auf 30-Sekunden-Takt, d.h. doppelt so schnell als die Basistaktzeit 60 Sekunden.As soon as the thermostat (2) switches on, the relay (20) receives voltage via line (7) and switches the contact (22), which has the task of switching the cycle times, to line (25) and thus via the selector switch (9) to one of the shortened cycle times, for example as shown to a 30-second cycle, ie twice as fast as the
Schaltet nun der Thermostat (2) bei Erreichen der oberen Temperatur T ab, so erhält das Relais (20) keine Spannung mehr. Es fällt ab und der Kontakt (22) verbindet den Impulszähler (17) über die Leitung (24) und (26) mit der Basistaktzeit 60 Sekunden. Gleichzeitig zieht das Relais (5) an und öffnet den Pausenkontakt (4).If the thermostat (2) switches off when the upper temperature T is reached, the relay (20) no longer receives any voltage. It falls off and the contact (22) connects the pulse counter (17) via line (24) and (26) with the basic cycle time of 60 seconds. At the same time, the relay (5) picks up and opens the break contact (4).
In der Folge werden dem Impulszähler (17) vom Taktgeber (16) alle 60 Sekunden Impulse zugeleitet, bis die am Display (19) angezeigte Impulszahl (in diesem Beispiel '40') erreicht ist. Bei dieser maximalen Impulszahl wird auch der Impulszähler (17) auf '0' gestellt, das Relais (5) wird stromlos und der Pausenkontakt (4) schließt.Subsequently, the pulse counter (17) from the clock generator (16) is supplied with pulses every 60 seconds until the number of pulses shown on the display (19) (in this example '40') is reached. At this maximum number of pulses, the pulse counter (17) is also set to '0', the relay (5) is de-energized and the break contact (4) closes.
Der Brenner (1) kann erst jetzt wieder seinen Betrieb aufnehmen, selbst wenn der Thermostat (2) vorher geschlossen hätte.The burner (1) can only start operating again now, even if the thermostat (2) had previously closed.
Sollte der Kontakt (2) noch nicht geschlossen sein, so bleibt die gesamte Zeitsteuerung (6) in Warteposition "Stand-by", bis beim nächsten Einschalten des Thermostats (2) das Relais (20) wieder Spannung erhält.If the contact (2) is not yet closed, the entire time control (6) remains in the "standby" waiting position until the next time the thermostat (2) is switched on, the relay (20) receives voltage again.
Figur 5 zeigt den Verlauf einer Regelkurve, wie sie mit der Schaltung Figur 6 erreicht werden kann.FIG. 5 shows the course of a control curve as can be achieved with the circuit of FIG. 6.
Horizontal ist wieder die Zeit t, vertikal die Anzahl der entsprechenden Zeitimpulse aufgetragen. Auch in diesem Beispiel wird eine vorgewählte maximale Impulszahl von 40 Impulsen angenommen. Auch die Vervielfältigungskonstante K = 1 ist beibehalten. Das entspricht einer doppelt so schnellen Impulsfolge während der Einschaltzeit des Brenners, also 1 Impuls in 30 Sekunden.Time t is plotted again horizontally, the number of corresponding time pulses plotted vertically. In this example, too, a preselected maximum number of pulses of 40 pulses is assumed. The duplication constant K = 1 is also retained. This corresponds to a pulse sequence twice as fast during the burner's switch-on time, i.e. 1 pulse in 30 seconds.
Demgemäß zeigt Figur 5 während der Brennerlaufzeit, die mit 15 Minuten angenommen ist, ein steiles Ansteigen in dieser Zeit bis auf 30 Impulse entsprechend der Linie 26. Sobald der Brenner abgeschaltet ist, läuft während der restlichen Zeit (Pausenzeit Tp ) die Zeitzählung gemäß Linie 27 langsam mit einem Impuls pro Minute, bis schließlich die vorgewählte maximale Pausenzeit Pm bei 40 Impulsen erreicht ist.Accordingly, FIG. 5 shows a steep increase during this burner running time, which is assumed to be 15 minutes, up to 30 pulses corresponding to
Diese Funktion entspricht genau der angegebenen Formel
Erfindungsgemäß erhält der Impulszähler (17) der Zeitsteuerung (6) eine weitere Einstellungsmöglichkeit. Mit dem Knopf (33) kann eine Impulsanzahl (31) eingestellt werden, bei der die Steuerung prüft, ob der Brenner noch eingeschaltet ist, entsprechend Punkt 29 in Figur 5. Ist das nicht der Fall, so bedeutet dies, daß weniger als die halbe Brenner-leistung im Steuerungszyklus benötigt wird und die Zeitsteuerung (6) gibt über die Kommandoleitung (32) den Befehl zur Umschaltung auf halbe Leistung (siehe Schaltbild Figur 6).According to the invention, the pulse counter (17) of the time control (6) has a further setting option. With the button (33) a number of pulses (31) can be set, at which the control checks whether the burner is still switched on, according to
Wird hingegen bei Erreichen der eingestellten maximalen Impulszahl festgestellt, daß der Brenner immer noch eingeschaltet, d. h. die restliche Pausenzeit '0' ist, so erhält der Brenner über die Kommandoleitung (32) den Befehl mit höherer Leistung zu fahren.If, on the other hand, it is found when the set maximum number of pulses is reached that the burner is still switched on, i.e. H. the remaining pause time is '0', the burner receives the command to run with higher power via the command line (32).
Mit dem Knopf (33) kann man die Impulszahl (31) den verschiedenen Bedingungen anpassen, um z. B. bei halber Zyklusimpulszahl oder erst bei 3/4 der maximalen Zyklusimpulse zu prüfen, ober der Brenner umgeschaltet werden soll.With the button (33) you can adjust the number of pulses (31) to the different conditions, z. B. to check at half the number of cycle pulses or only at 3/4 of the maximum cycle pulses above which the burner should be switched.
Das beschriebene Beispiel dient dem besseren Verständnis der Erfindung, aber sowohl die Zeitmessung und die Auswertung in dem "Zyklus" können beliebig variiert werden, soweit die Aufgabenstellung erfindungsgemäß damit gelöst werden kann.The example described serves for a better understanding of the invention, but both the time measurement and the evaluation in the "cycle" can be varied as far as the task can be solved according to the invention.
