Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flame tube boiler according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such flame tube boilers are generally known. It is a cylindrical, lying boiler drum with one or more flame tubes in it, into which a burner fires at one end. At the other end, the already cooled flue gases leave the flame tube at temperatures of mostly 700 ° C to 1000 ° C and enter a turning chamber, where they are redirected and fed to a flue tube train consisting of a bundle of parallel flue tubes, which are located below the flame tube extend through the boiler drum.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a flame tube boiler of the type mentioned, for firing with dust-like, solid, ash-containing fuels without risk of contamination.
  • the dimensions of the flame tube which are required to maintain the above-mentioned sufficient cooling of the flue gases below the ash softening point, can be calculated from the heat transfer by radiation and convection, taking into account the wall temperature and the laws of fluid mechanics. In this context, reference is made to the VDI Warmth Atlas, from which corresponding information can be found.
  • the number of pipes and their cross sections determine the flow velocity and thus the back pressure of the flue gases in the flue pipes.
  • the total amount of air and the amount of exhaust gas can be calculated from the amount of fuel and the excess air to comply with the TA-Luft regulations. which in turn determines the number and cross-sections of the smoke pipes at a given dynamic pressure.
  • the above-mentioned dynamic pressure is therefore peculiar to each individual boiler.
  • the safety of the boiler according to the invention against contamination by caking of ash constituents at the particularly vulnerable inflow openings of the flue pipes can be further improved if these inflow openings are blown over with a compressed air blast at more or less regular intervals.
  • at least one side wall of the turning chamber is therefore penetrated by at least one blow pipe, the blowing direction of which is directed at least approximately parallel to the partition wall which has the blow pipe inflow openings and separates the turn chamber from the boiler drum, and whose blow cross-section sweeps over all flue pipe inflow openings.
  • This blowpipe is preferably connected via a valve to a gas pressure collector which only has to have a relatively small volume and, for example, stores air under a pressure of 6000 to 8000 hPa.
  • This compressed air creates a pressure surge lasting approximately 0.1 s at intervals of 0.5 to 4 h, which spreads at the speed of sound and sweeps over the entire field of the inflow openings of the flue pipes.
  • the inflow openings of the smoke pipes in the opposite end wall of the turning chamber are opposed by blow pipes, with the aid of which deposits in the region of the inflow openings can be blown away.
  • one or more blowing nozzles are also arranged in the burner-side end wall of the flame tube, through which steam or compressed air can be blown continuously or in bursts into the flame tube in order to remove ash deposits from the flame tube wall.
  • the flame tube boiler consists of an outer boiler drum 1 and one or more cylindrical flame tubes 2 arranged therein. In the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, only one flame tube 2 is present. At one end there is an extension 3 for connecting a burner, which is not shown in the present example.
  • This extension 3 can be arranged in or outside the axis of the flame tube 2, wherein the axis of the extension 3 can be parallel or inclined to the axis of the flame tube 2. If the approach 3 for the burner, as shown in Fig. 1, is arranged above the axis of the flame tube 2 and inclined to its axis, so that the burner blows obliquely downwards, then the pulse of the flame gases advantageously blows ash deposits from the bottom of the flame tube 2 away.
  • the flame tube 2 opens at its other end into a turning chamber 4 which is formed by an upper water collector 5, two lower water collectors 6 'and 6 "(FIG. 2) and side walls 7, a bottom wall 23 and a rear end wall 8. These walls are expediently designed as water-cooled membrane walls.
  • a flue pipe train consisting of a plurality of flue pipes 9 running parallel to one another, runs below the flame pipe 2 through the boiler drum 1. These flue pipes 9 have inflow openings on a partition 16 which delimits the boiler drum 1 from the turning chamber 4. At the other end, the smoke pipes open into a flue gas collecting space 18.
  • the two lower water collectors 6 'and 6 "form an opening between them through which ash and other dirt particles can fall down out of the turning chamber 4.
  • the opening opens into a trough 24 in which a screw conveyor 10 is located is located, by means of which the ash parts can be conveyed into an outlet opening 11.
  • one or more blowpipes 12 open into the flame tube 2, through which compressed gas, for example steam or air, can be blown continuously or in pressure surges, in order to blow ash deposits away from there in the direction of the turning chamber .
  • compressed gas for example steam or air
  • blowpipe 13 which extends through one of the side walls 7 of the turning chamber 4, is intended to blow air pressure surges tangentially or at a small angle over the partition 16 in the area where the inflow openings of the smoke pipes 9 are arranged. 4 and 5, the blow pipe 13 is connected via a valve 20 to a pressure collector 21, which is supplied with air pressure by a pressure pump 22.
  • the valve 20, which can be a solenoid valve, the pressure collector 21 and the pump 22 are only shown schematically in FIG. 4.
  • blowpipes 12 Part of the combustion air can be blown in through the blowpipes 12, which has a lower effect on the achievement Levels of CO and NO x affects. Furthermore, these blowpipes can supply steam or compressed air in a constant manner continuously or in bursts.
  • the turning chamber 4 can be seen with a view of the flame tube 2 and the flue tubes 9.
  • the flame tube 2 including a blow tube 12, the water collectors 5, 6 can be seen 'and 6 ".
  • the lower water collectors 6' and 6" are arranged eccentrically and allow the jet effect of the blowpipe 13 when spreading in the known jet angle to record the entirety of the inflow openings of the smoke pipes 9 and deposits that have formed there on the partition 16 could blow away.
  • the bottom wall 23 of the turning chamber 4 is expediently arranged in an inclined manner and leads to the opening already mentioned between the two lower water collectors 6 ′ and 6 ′′ in the mentioned trough 24.
  • FIG. 3 shows a section through the inflow region of one of the smoke pipes 9 on the partition wall 16, which separates the boiler drum 1 from the turning chamber 4.
  • the smoke pipe 9 has an inner radius R and is rounded at the inflow end in a trumpet-like manner with an inner radius of curvature r.
  • the fillet has an axial length of approximately size r.
  • This area is particularly critical with regard to deposits of burning ash particles that are still in a doughy state.
  • these could not entirely follow a deflection which is too sharp as a result of an inner radius of curvature r which is too small, and collar-like precipitation around the inlet into the smoke tube 9 form, which solidify due to the cooling effect of the water-cooled walls and form very hard crusts.
  • Such precipitation is avoided by dimensioning the ratio r: R greater than 0.30, preferably between 0.50 and 0.80, according to the invention.
  • This irregular change in the flue gas velocity in the flue pipes 9 contributes significantly to the formation of collar-like ash incrustations in the area of the inflow openings of the flue pipes 9.
  • the dynamic pressure is preferably in the range between 80 and 200 Pa. Even higher dynamic pressures can lead to dynamic effects (pulsations) of the mass of the smoke gases in the smoke tubes 9 in cooperation with the elasticity and the energy supply of the hot gases in the flame tube 2.
  • blowpipes 17 can be provided in the area of the turning chamber 4, which in particular if there are still oversized particles in the area of the flame tube outlet cross section into the turning chamber, supply this further oxygen for the burnout.
  • These blowpipes 17 can expediently be arranged such that the same oxygen contents are present in all inlet cross sections B of the flue pipes 9.
  • Doors 14 can be arranged on the rear end wall 8 of the turning chamber 4, through which the inflow openings of the smoke tubes 9 and the lower region of the flame tube 2 are accessible.
  • FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of the invention in which two flame tubes 2 are arranged in a boiler drum 1, of which only one is shown in FIG. 4 for reasons of clarity.
  • the other flame tube with associated turning chamber and other components must be imagined to be arranged in mirror image.
  • FIG. 4 shows the end wall cover 14 removed, the field of the inflow openings into the flue pipes 9 and also the blow pipe 13 with valve 20 and pressure collector 21, the blow cross section of the blow pipe 13 being shown in dash-dot lines and, as can be seen, the entire field of the inflow openings of the Smoke pipes 9 sweeps.
  • the direction of flow of the blow pipe 13 is directed essentially obliquely downwards in order to blow away ash deposits which have been blown away into the outlet between the lower water collectors 6 'and 6 ".
  • a feed pipe 25 for additional air can be seen in FIG. 4 under the sloping bottom wall 23 of the turning chamber. which has outlets opening into the turning chamber 4, which are indicated schematically by dash-dotted lines.
  • FIG. 5 shows the arrangement according to FIG. 4 from above, wherein two turning chambers can be seen, which are arranged as a twin arrangement on both sides of the center of the boiler drum 1.
  • the blowpipes 13 is shown with the pressure accumulator 21 attached, this figure essentially showing that the blowpipe 13 blows approximately tangentially over the partition wall 16 which separates the boiler drum 1 from the turning chambers 4.
  • the boiler construction is also suitable for the combustion of liquid, sulfur-containing fuels if a calcareous absorbent, for example hydrated lime, is added to the hot combustion gases in or shortly after the flame.
  • a calcareous absorbent for example hydrated lime
  • exhaust gas temperatures which are lower than the softening temperature of the burnt-out ash particles result at the outlet cross section of the flame tube 2 into the turning chamber 4.
  • particles up to 0.2 to 0.3 mm grain size can burn out in flame tubes. Larger particles enter the turning chamber 4 and the flue pipes 9 in a burning, doughy state a.
  • the softening temperatures of the burnt-out ashes of the different types of coal dust are usually between 950 and 1250 ° C.
  • the boiler is therefore designed to prevent such ash particles from caking in such a way that the flue gases at the outlet from the outlet cross section of the flame tube 2 have a temperature which is a safety distance below the ash softening temperature mentioned.
  • a flue gas collecting space 18 is arranged for extracting the cooled flue gases.
  • This has an access door 19 through which the interior of the flue pipes 9 can be inspected and, in the event of a malfunction, cleaned in the usual way by piercing with long rods, the deposits which have fallen out falling into the trough 24 and being able to be removed by the screw 10.
