Definitions

  • the invention relates to a grate bar and grate Cooling device and a method for cooling for Incinerators, especially from Waste incineration plants.
  • a grate with cooled grate bars is already known from document DE-U-9 309 198.
  • a grate for incinerators is usually formed by rows of grate bars that lie one above the other and extend transversely to the transport direction of the firing material. Grate firing is also used as a tried and tested apparatus for domestic waste incineration. The individual grids are covered with grate bars. These have the task of transporting the garbage, mixing (so-called stoking) and taking over the burnout. The processes of drying, preheating, degassing, gasification and C-burnout run on the grate, and thus the grate bars, one after the other.
  • the grate bars are provided with openings (slots, Gaps, holes, etc.) through the combustion air is blown.
  • the grate bars are particularly stressed by mechanical Abrasion as well as thermal and chemical wear. Corresponding wear leads to changes in the Fire management, the burnout qualities and ultimately too Business interruptions.
  • the wear of the grate bars is essentially temperature-dependent.
  • the invention has for its object grate bars and to create a grate that burns when burning high-calorie fabrics are wear-resistant, their shape do not change and thus also the combustion behavior as well as the transport and mixing behavior in the oven change.
  • good emergency running properties are said to Water loss and a relatively low warming of the Water to less than 100 degrees Celsius is preferred less than 50 degrees Celsius can be reached.
  • steam formation is to be effectively prevented will.
  • the grate bar according to the invention with a cooling device on which at least one inlet and one outlet opening are arranged has at least one channel for guidance in the grate bar of cooling water, essentially in the longitudinal direction of the Rust bar, on. Since the longitudinal direction of the grate bar This corresponds to the material feed device particularly good cooling of the individual grate bars reached. By cooling every single grate bar the heating of the cooling medium can be relatively low being held. This increases the operational safety of the Cooling and the service life of the grates respectively Cooling system. Water is preferred as the cooling medium used. Other, higher-boiling cooling media are for special applications can also be used.
  • the channel arranged in the grate bar preferably has two, substantially parallel sections with each other opposite flow direction, this with one arranged in the head area of the grate bar Redirection are connected.
  • the sections of the canal with opposite flow direction can in the horizontal or vertical plane side by side or lie on top of each other.
  • the channels are in the With regard to the heat to be dissipated fluidically optimized so that the heating of the coolant is not more than about 50 degrees Celsius, preferably about 20 degrees Celsius is.
  • approximately parallel sections of the cooling channel can this different cross-sectional shapes and areas exhibit.
  • the one arranged in the head area of the grate bar Redirection can lie in the plane caused by the Central axes of the approximately parallel sections of the Cooling channel goes.
  • the deflection is preferred up to the range of an adjacent row of grate bars resting on the edge of the Grate rod head led. It is in the area of The grate bar head is approximately U-shaped.
  • the inlet and outlet openings for the coolant are arranged at the foot of the grate bar in the area of the coolant at the foot of the grate bar in the area of the grate bar support.
  • Air outlet openings for combustion air are further preferably arranged in the head part. This further improves the cooling of the grate bar.
  • recesses for the exit of combustion air are also arranged in the long sides of the grate bar.
  • This Cooling system advantageously consists of one Expansion or compensation vessel (32), the cooled Grate bars (34), a recooler (35) and a pump (36) and a connection (31) for filling or Draining of the cooling system together with the pressure control valve (33).
  • the cooling medium When using water, the cooling medium is in one Cooling system under pressure, preferably between 1 and 6 bar operated. This will cause steam to form avoided and e.g. a two-phase flow or formation of "steam pillows" with correspondingly worse Prevents heat transfer.
  • a particularly preferred feature of the invention are between the main inlet and outlet and inlet and Drain opening of the first or last grate bar a row of grate bars or a section of one Row of grate bars in which the inlet and outlet openings of the individual grate bars are connected in series, Valves for the supply or discharge of another Cooling medium, especially air, and Interruption of the main inflow or outflow line arranged.
  • This has the advantage that in the event of a leak in one or more grate bars in a row of grate bars air cooling is used instead of water cooling and thus the operation until the next planned Downtime can be maintained.
  • rows of grate bars with low thermal loads can be with cheaper cooling media, such as. B. air, cooled will.
  • the combination of several rows of grate bars in Parallel connection to rust zones with common connection or Drain pipe and valves for supply or discharge another cooling medium, in particular air, and Shut-off to the main inlet or outlet line discloses a particularly economical variant.
  • Figure 1 is a grate bar 1 with grate bar support 2 in Area of the grate bar base 3 shown.
  • the grate bar head 4 lies with the edge 5 on a grate bar adjacent row of grate bars.
  • the grate bar consists of Cast iron. It has a channel 6, which is approximately parallel Has sections (one behind the other in Figure 1). This parallel sections are by a deflection 7th connected with each other.
  • Channel 6 is related Provide drain openings 8. This feed and Drain openings are preferably located directly on the foot side End of the channel 6 attached.
  • FIG 2 is a section II-II of Figure 1 through the Grate bar head 4 shown.
  • the roughly parallel Sections of channel 6, here referred to as 6 'and 6' ' open into a deflection 7, which is in the plane of Section II is approximately U-shaped down to the bottom Edge 5 of the grate bar head 4 is guided.
  • air outlet openings 9 are provided in the grate bar head 4 between and next to the legs of the U-shaped Deflection 7 .
  • Figure 3 is a section II of Figure 1 for a Execution shown, in which the deflection is not in the area of the edge 5 is drawn.
  • the redirection 7 forms here together with the channel sections 6 'and 6' ' in their plane also an approximately U-shaped Cross-section.
  • the sections 6 'and 6 '' can also be arranged one above the other.
  • FIG. 1 A flow diagram of a grate is shown in FIG.
  • main inlet and the main outlet line 11 of a cooling medium in particular water
  • 12 and drain opening 13 of the first 14 and last 15 Grate bar of each row of grate bars their addition or Drain openings of the individual grate bars in a row are connected to one another, valves for supply or Removal 17 of a further cooling medium, in particular air, as well as to interrupt the main inlet 18 or Main drain line 19 arranged.

  • a preferred direction of waste flow arrow 22 indicates.
  • the grate according to the invention and the grate bar have the Advantage that the grate bars without changing the Incinerator can be used. It stays therefore with the previous combustion technology. That too mechanical transport and mixing behavior (forward / return stroke) stay unchanged. This applies to both the weight also the stroke length and so on.
  • the rust is also extremely wear-resistant, as the grate bars are made as before Cast. Therefore, the grate bar according to the invention and rust also have excellent emergency running properties Malfunctions, for example in the event of water failure.
  • the grate bars preferably have the hitherto known Form on, with the width of the grate bars approximately doubled is, so that in one half, that is, so far usual grate bar width, the cooling water forward to in head is headed and in the second half again is returned.
  • the parallel channel sections face a clear height of about 15 to 25 mm and a clear Width of about 40 to 60 mm.
