Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von Gasbrennern nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs.The invention is based on gas burners according to the genus Main claim.

Bei bekannten Gasbrennern dieser Gattung (EP 0 404 260 A1) sind die Kanäle in der Brennerplatte zwischen einzelnen Plattenelementen gebildet, deren brennraumseitige Randkanten allesamt in einer gemeinsamen Austrittsebene liegen. Bei dieser Ausführung berühren die Flammenwurzeln die Brennerplatte nur mit ihren Scheitelbereichen, so daß ein die Flammen kühlender Wärmeabfluß über die Brennerplatte in das wärmeabführende Medium nur in einem begrenzten Umfang möglich ist. Das schränkt auch das Bestreben nach einer möglichst großen Flächenbelastung des Brenners ein, wenn die Flammentemperatur nicht in einen bezüglich der Nox-Bildung schädlichen Bereich ansteigen soll.In known gas burners of this type (EP 0 404 260 A1), the channels in the burner plate are formed between individual plate elements, the edges of which on the combustion chamber side all lie in a common exit plane. In this embodiment, the flame roots only touch the burner plate with their apex regions, so that a heat flow that cools the flames via the burner plate into the heat-dissipating medium is only possible to a limited extent. This also restricts the effort for the burner to have as large a surface load as possible if the flame temperature is not to rise to an area which is harmful with respect to the formation of NO x .

Aus der US 4,137,905 A ist ein Gasbrenner mit einer mit Rippen versehenen Brennerplatte bekannt, wobei die Rippen von einem Kühlrohr durchzogen sind. Der Abstand der Rippen am Kühlrohr ist dabei so gewählt, daß bei der Verbrennung die Flammen mit ihren Wurzeln auf den brennraumseitigen Randkanten der Rippen aufsitzen. Die Randkanten der Rippen liegen dabei in einer gemeinsamen Ebene.From US 4,137,905 A is a gas burner with one with ribs provided burner plate known, the ribs of a Cooling tube are pulled. The distance between the fins on the cooling pipe is chosen so that the flames with their combustion Sit the roots on the edges of the ribs on the combustion chamber side. The marginal edges of the ribs lie in a common plane.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß die Flammen in ihrem Wurzelbereich über eine definierte, sich über den Scheitelbereich hinaus erstreckende Fläche so gekühlt werden, daß auch höhere Flächenbelastungen des Brenners beziehungsweise der Brennerplatte möglich sind, ohne daß sich unzulassig hohe NOx-Werte ergeben.The arrangement according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the flames are cooled in their root area over a defined area extending beyond the apex area so that even higher surface loads of the burner or the burner plate are possible without result in inadmissibly high NO x values.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des Gegenstandes des Hauptanspruchs möglich.By the measures listed in the subclaims advantageous developments of the subject of Main claim possible.

Eine einfache, bei Wärmetauschern in Wassererhitzern bewährte Ausführung ergibt sich, wenn die Brennerplatte aus Blechrippen aufgebaut ist, die durch ein vom wärmeableitenden Medium durchströmtes Kühlrohrsystem miteinander verbunden sind und zwischen sich die Kanäle beziehungsweise Spalte für den Durchtritt des Brennstoff-Luftgemisches begrenzen.A simple one for heat exchangers in water heaters proven design results when the burner plate is out Sheet metal ribs is built up by one of the cooling pipe system through which heat-dissipating medium flows are interconnected and the channels between them or column for the passage of the Limit fuel-air mixture.

Bei dieser bewährten Ausführung ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die brennraumseitigen Ränder von bestimmten Blechrippen gegenüber den brennraumseitigen Rändern der anderen Blechrippen zurückversetzt sind. Dadurch wird eine besonders ausgeprägte Strukturierung der brennraumseitigen Wand der Brennerplatte erreicht, bei welcher die Flammenwurzeln über größere Seitenbereiche an benachbarten Blechrippen anliegen und daher besonders gut gekühlt werden.It is special with this proven design advantageous if the edges on the combustion chamber side of certain sheet metal fins compared to the combustion chamber side Edges of the other sheet metal ribs are set back. Thereby is a particularly pronounced structuring of the Wall of the burner plate on the combustion chamber side is reached which the flame roots on larger side areas adjacent sheet metal ribs and therefore particularly good be cooled.

Die ausgeprägte Strukturierung der Brennerplatte kann dadurch erreicht werden, daß jeweils zwischen zwei nicht zurückversetzten Blechrippen eine zurückversetzte beziehungsweise gekürzte Blechrippe vorgesehen wird. Bei Versuchen hat sich eine Ausführung als besonders vorteilhaft herausgestellt, bei welcher jeweils zwischen zwei nicht zurückversetzten Blechrippen zwei kürzere Blechrippen nebeneinanderliegend angeordnet sind. The distinctive structuring of the burner plate can can be achieved by not between two set back sheet metal ribs a set back or shortened sheet metal rib is provided. At An execution has proven to be particularly advantageous pointed out, in which between two not set back sheet metal ribs two shorter sheet metal ribs are arranged side by side.

Bei der Ausbildung der Kanäle in der Brennerplatte ist darauf zu achten, daß sie mindestens über einen Längsabschnitt eine Breite beziehungsweise einen Durchmesser haben, die beziehungsweise der kleiner als der sogenannte Löschabstand ist, damit die Flammen nicht zurückschlagen können. Zu diesem Zweck wird vorgeschlagen, daß an der Einströmseite der Brennerplatte ein Lochblech beziehungsweise eine Gitterstruktur vorgesehen ist, dessen Öffnungsdurchmesser beziehungsweise deren Maschenweite kleiner als der Rippenabstand ist.In the formation of the channels in the burner plate is make sure that they have at least one Longitudinal section a width or a diameter have the or the smaller than the so-called Extinguishing distance is so that the flames do not fight back can. For this purpose it is proposed that at the A perforated plate on the inflow side of the burner plate or a lattice structure is provided, the Opening diameter or their mesh size is smaller than the rib spacing.

Anstelle einer den Rippenrohrwärmetauschern von Wassererhitzern nachgebildeten Ausführung einer Brennerplatte kann diese auch aus einer mit Zuströmbohrungen versehenen, mit dem wärmeableitenden Rohrsystem verbundenen Grundplatte und einer Vielzahl von auf der Grundplatte befestigten Stiften bestehen, die zwischen sich die Kanäle für den Durchtritt des Brennstoff-Luftgemisches bilden.Instead of one of the finned tube heat exchangers from Model of a water heater model Burner plate can also be made from an inflow hole provided, connected to the heat-dissipating pipe system Base plate and a variety of on the base plate attached pins are made between the channels form for the passage of the fuel-air mixture.

Ferner kann die Brennerplatte aus einer Wabenstruktur und einer damit verbundenen Grundplatte bestehen, die mit dem wärmeableitenden Rohrsystem verbunden und mit in die Kanäle der Wabenstruktur einmündenden Zuströmbohrungen versehen ist. Zur stärkeren Strukturierung der brennraumseitigen Wand der Wabenstruktur wird vorgeschlagen, diese durch verkürzte Einsätze in den Einzelwaben gestuft auszubilden.Furthermore, the burner plate can consist of a honeycomb structure and an associated base plate exist with the heat-dissipating pipe system connected and in the channels the inflow holes opening into the honeycomb structure is. For stronger structuring of the wall on the combustion chamber side the honeycomb structure is suggested, this by shortened To train inserts in the individual honeycombs.

Der Bildung von schädlichen NOX-Emissionen kann weiter entgegengewirkt werden, wenn die Wände der Kanäle für das durchströmende Brennstoff-Luftgemisch mindestens im Bereich ihrer brennraumseitigen Endabschnitte katalytisch beschichtet sind. In diesem Fall ist die Brennerplatte durch entsprechende Bemessung beziehungsweise Werkstoffwahl so auszulegen, daß sich eine Oberflächentemperatur von ca. 600° C ergibt. Der Start eines solchen katalytischen Brenners erfolgt in konventioneller Weise mit an den Rippen- beziehungsweise Wabenenden frei brennenden Flammen. Nach Erwärmung der Brennerplatte auf die Betriebstemperatur der Katalysatorbeschichtung ziehen sich die Flammen in den katalytisch wirksamen Bereich zurück.The formation of harmful NO x emissions can be further counteracted if the walls of the channels for the fuel / air mixture flowing through are catalytically coated at least in the region of their end sections on the combustion chamber side. In this case, the burner plate must be designed by appropriate dimensioning or material selection so that the surface temperature is approximately 600 ° C. Such a catalytic burner is started in a conventional manner with flames burning freely at the fin or honeycomb ends. After the burner plate has been heated to the operating temperature of the catalyst coating, the flames withdraw into the catalytically active region.

Wenn der Gasbrenner als Heizquelle für einen Wassererhitzer bestimmt ist, kann vorteilhaft das mit der Brennerplatte wärmeleitend verbundene Rohrsystem vom aufzuheizenden Wasser durchströmt sein und das Rohrsystem mit der Brennerplatte eine Wärmetauschereinheit des Wassererhitzers bilden. In diesem Fall kann ein von den Verbrennungsgasen des Gasbrenners beaufschlagter Wärmetauscher kleiner als bei einer Ausführung mit ungekühltem Brenner ausgeführt werden.If the gas burner as a heat source for a water heater is determined, can be advantageous with the burner plate Pipe system of the water to be heated connected in a heat-conducting manner be flowed through and the pipe system with the burner plate form a heat exchanger unit of the water heater. In In this case, one of the combustion gases of the Gas burner's heat exchanger is smaller than at a version with uncooled burner.

Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Der Wassererhitzer nach Figur 1 hat in einem Gehäuse 10 einen Gasbrenner 12, dem ein Brennstoff-Luftgemisch unter Gebläsedruck in Richtung des Pfeiles A zugeführt ist. Stromab des Gasbrenners 12 sitzt im Gehäuse 10 ein Abgaswärmetauscher 14, der von einem Rohrsystem 16 durchsetzt ist, welches das zu erhitzende Wasser führt. Das Rohrsystem 16 ist über eine Leitung 18 mit einem zweiten Rohrsystem 20 verbunden, das in den Gasbrenner 12 integriert ist. Stromab des Gasbrenners 12 ist eine Zündeinrichtung 22 zum Inbetriebsetzen der Heizung am Gehäuse 10 befestigt.The water heater according to FIG. 1 has a housing 10 a gas burner 12, under which a fuel-air mixture Blower pressure is supplied in the direction of arrow A. Downstream of the gas burner 12 sits in the housing 10 Exhaust gas heat exchanger 14, which is from a pipe system 16th is penetrated, which leads the water to be heated. The Pipe system 16 is via a line 18 to a second Connected pipe system 20, which is integrated into the gas burner 12 is. An ignition device 22 is located downstream of the gas burner 12 attached to the housing 10 for starting the heater.

Der Gasbrenner 12 hat eine Brennerplatte 24, die aus unterschiedlich langen Blechrippen 26, 28 (Figur 2) aufgebaut ist. Die Blechrippen 26, 28 stehen in gut wärmeleitendem Kontakt mit dem Rohrsystem 20 und sind durch dieses zu einer starren Baueinheit verbunden. Zwischen den Blechrippen 26, 28 sind Spalte 30 für den Durchtritt des Brennstoff-Luftgemisches gebildet. Die Breite a der Spalte 30 ist kleiner als der sogenannte Löschabstand bemessen, so daß Flammen nicht in die Brennerplatte 24 beziehungsweise in eine gegebenenfalls davorliegende Mischzone zurückschlagen können.The gas burner 12 has a burner plate 24 that is made of sheet ribs 26, 28 of different lengths (FIG. 2) is constructed. The sheet metal fins 26, 28 are in good condition thermally conductive contact with the pipe system 20 and are through this connected to a rigid unit. Between Sheet metal ribs 26, 28 are column 30 for the passage of the Fuel-air mixture formed. The width a of the column 30 is smaller than the so-called extinguishing distance, see above that flames are not in the burner plate 24 or in kick back any mixing zone in front of it can.

Die Brennerplatte 24 ist so gestaltet, daß die kürzeren Blechrippen 28 jeweils zwischen zwei längeren Blechrippen 26 stehen. Dabei ist die Anordnung so getroffen, daß die brennraumseitigen Ränder 32 der kürzeren Blechrippen 28 gegenüber den Rändern 34 der längeren Blechrippen 26 zurückgesetzt sind. Dadurch ergibt sich an der brennraumseitigen Wand der Brennerplatte 24 eine stark gestufte Oberflächenstrukturierung mit breiten Zwischenräumen 36, die seitlich durch Wandbereiche 38 der längeren Blechrippen 26 begrenzt sind.The burner plate 24 is designed so that the shorter ones Sheet metal ribs 28 each between two longer sheet metal ribs 26 stand. The arrangement is such that the Margins 32 of the shorter sheet metal fins 28 on the combustion chamber side opposite the edges 34 of the longer sheet metal ribs 26 are reset. This results in the combustion chamber side wall of the burner plate 24 a strong tiered surface structuring with wide Spaces 36 laterally through wall areas 38 of the longer sheet metal ribs 26 are limited.

Nach dem Zünden des Brenners reagiert das Gemisch zwischen beziehungsweise an den stromab liegenden Rändern 32, 34 der Blechrippen 26, 28 unter Flammenbildung, wobei Reaktionswärme aus den Flammenwurzeln über die Blechrippen 26, 28 an das aufzuheizende Wasser im Rohrsystem 20 gelangt. Die Flammenwurzeln werden hierbei besonders gut gekühlt, weil sie auch Seitenberührung mit den Wandbereichen 38 der Blechrippen 26 haben. Die beider Reaktion an der Brennerplatte 24 entstehenden Verbrennungsgase strömen durch den Abgaswärmetauscher 14, wo sie Wärme an das aufzuheizende Wasser im Rohrsystem 16 abgeben. Die abgewandelte Ausführung nach Figur 3 ist eine Brennerplatte 40, bei welcher jeweils zwei verkürzte Blechrippen 28 zwischen den längeren Blechrippen 26 angeordnet sind. Dadurch ergeben sich noch breitere Zwischenräume 42, welche die brennraumseitige Wand der Brennerplatte 40 besonders stark strukturieren.After igniting the burner, the mixture reacts between or at the downstream edges 32, 34 of the Sheet metal fins 26, 28 with flame formation, whereby Heat of reaction from the flame roots over the sheet metal fins 26, 28 reaches the water to be heated in the pipe system 20. The flame roots are particularly well cooled, because they also have side contact with the wall areas 38 of the Have sheet metal fins 26. The two reaction to the Burner plate 24 resulting combustion gases flow through the exhaust gas heat exchanger 14, where it transfers heat to the one to be heated Dispense water in the pipe system 16. The modified version 3 is a burner plate 40, in each case two shortened sheet metal ribs 28 between the longer ones Sheet metal ribs 26 are arranged. This still results wider gaps 42 which the wall on the combustion chamber side structure the burner plate 40 particularly strongly.

Bei der abgewandelten Ausführung nach Figur 4 ist eine Brennerplatte 44 aus unterschiedlichen langen Blechrippen 46, 48 aufgebaut, die durch das kühlende Rohrsystem 20 starr miteinander verbunden und deren brennraumseitigen Endabschnitte katalytisch beschichtet sind. Auf der Eingangsseite ist die Brennerplatte 44 mit einer Gitterstruktur 50 versehen, deren Maschenweite kleiner als die Breite der Spalte zwischen den Blechrippen 46, 48 ist. Die Wärmeleitfähigkeit der Blechrippen 46, 48 ist durch Bemessung und/oder Werkstoffwahl so auf die Brennerleistung abgestimmt, daß sich ihre Oberflächentemperatur auf zum Beispiel 600° C einstellt. An den Blechrippen 46, 48 findet eine katalytische Verbrennung statt, bei der im Vergleich zu einer unbeschichteten Ausführung die Bildung von Schadstoffen noch weiter reduziert ist.In the modified embodiment according to FIG. 4 there is one Burner plate 44 made of different long metal ribs 46, 48 built up by the cooling pipe system 20 rigid interconnected and their combustion chamber side End sections are coated catalytically. On the The input side is the burner plate 44 with a Provide lattice structure 50 whose mesh size is smaller than is the width of the gap between the sheet metal fins 46, 48. The thermal conductivity of the metal fins 46, 48 is through Dimensioning and / or choice of materials based on the burner output matched that their surface temperature on to Example sets 600 ° C. On the metal ribs 46, 48 takes place a catalytic combustion takes place in which compared to the formation of an uncoated version Pollutants is reduced even further.

Der Start des Brenners erfolgt in konventioneller Weise mit einer an den brennraumseitigen Enden der Blechrippen 46, 48 frei brennenden Flamme.
