- the burner consists of two hollow partial cone bodies 1, 2, which are offset from one another.
- the two partial cone bodies 1, 2 each have a cylindrical starting part 9, 10, which also run offset to each other, so that in this area too the tangential air inlet slots 5, 6 are present.
- In this cylindrical starting part 9, 10 is a nozzle 11 for Atomization of the liquid fuel 12 housed.

Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf das Gebiet der Verbrennungstechnik. Sie betrifft einen Vormischbrenner der Doppelkegelbauart und ein Verfahren zum Betrieb des Brenners.The invention relates to the field of combustion technology. It concerns a premix burner of the double cone type and a method of operating the burner.
Aus EP 0 321 809 B1 und aus DE-A-4416650 ist der prinzipielle Aufbau eines Brenners der Doppelkegelbauart bekannt, auf den sich die Erfindung bezieht. Dieser Brenner besteht im wesentlichen aus hohlen, sich zu einem Körper ergänzenden Teilkegelkörpern, mit tangentialen Lufteintrittsschlitzen und Zuführungen für gasförmige und flüssige Brennstoffe, bei dem die Mittelachsen der hohlen Teilkegelkörper eine in Strömungsrichtung sich erweiternde Kegelneigung aufweisen und in Längsrichtung zueinander versetzt verlaufen. Im von den Teilkegelkörpern gebildeten kegelförmigen Innenraum ist am Brennerkopf eine Brennstoffdüse plaziert. Der gasförmige Brennstoff wird dem Verbrennungsluftstrom vorgängig seiner Einströmung in den Brennerinnenraum über entlang der Eintrittsschlitze angeordneten Gasinjektoren zugeführt. Die Bildung des Brennstoff/Luft-Gemisches geschieht somit direkt am Ende der tangentialen Lufteintrittsschlitze. Die Eintrittsebene der Verbrennungsluft und die Gaseintrittsebene (Belochungsebene) fallen bei diesem bekannten Stand der Technik zusammen. EP 0 321 809 B1 and DE-A-4416650 describe the basic structure of a burner the double-cone design known to the invention refers. This burner consists essentially of hollow, partial conical bodies that complement one another, with tangential air inlet slots and feeds for gaseous and liquid fuels where the central axes the hollow partial cone body is widening in the direction of flow Have a taper and in the longitudinal direction to each other run staggered. In the part cone bodies formed conical interior is a fuel nozzle on the burner head placed. The gaseous fuel becomes the combustion air flow prior to its inflow into the interior of the burner arranged along the entry slots Gas injectors supplied. The formation of the fuel / air mixture thus happens directly at the end of the tangential air inlet slots. The entrance level of the combustion air and the gas entry level (perforation level) fall at this known prior art together.
Die Zunahme des Dralles entlang der Kegelachse, verbunden mit der plötzlichen Querschnittserweiterung am Brenneraustritt, führt dazu, dass sich stromab des Brenneraustrittes auf der Brennerachse eine Rückströmzone (innere Rezirkulationszone) bildet, die die Flamme stabilisiert. Erst im Staupunkt dieser inneren Rückströmzone wird die Zündung der Flamme eingeleitet.The increase in twist along the cone axis associated with the sudden cross-sectional expansion at the burner outlet, leads to the fact that downstream of the burner outlet on the Burner axis a backflow zone (inner recirculation zone) forms, which stabilizes the flame. Only at the stagnation point of this ignition of the flame is initiated in the inner backflow zone.
In bestimmten Betriebszuständen, z.B. nahe der Löschgrenze oder bei magerem Betrieb der Vormischstufe, d.h. beim Übergang zum Kopfstufenbetrieb, bei dem zwecks Anfettung des Brennstoff/Luft-Gemisches zusätzlich Pilotgas in Achsnähe des Brenners eingedüst wird (interne Pilotisierung), neigt der Brenner zu Schwingungen. Das hat wiederum zur Folge, dass der betreibbare Bereich des Brenners, also sein Stabilitätsbereich eingeschränkt wird und der Brenner frühzeitig verlöscht.In certain operating conditions, e.g. near the deletion limit or with lean operation of the premix stage, i.e. at the transition to head stage operation, in order to enrich the Fuel / air mixture additionally pilot gas near the axis of the Brenners is injected (internal pilotization), the tends Burner to vibrate. This in turn means that the operable area of the burner, i.e. its stability area is restricted and the burner extinguishes prematurely.
Die Ursache für die Schwingungen und das Verlöschen bei vergleichsweise brennstoffreichen Bedingungen ist die unzureichende Flammenstabilisierung des Brenners. Der Brenner wird zwar durch die innere Rezirkulationszone stabilisiert, die im Kopfstufenbetrieb mit Zusatzbrennstoff versorgt wird. Die äussere Scherschicht des aus dem Brenner austretenden Brennstoff/Luft-Gemisches, die eine wesentlich grössere Kontaktfläche zwischen Frischgas und Abgas im Vergleich zur inneren Rezirkulationszone zur Verfügung stellt, wird jedoch bisher nicht zur Stabilisierung benutzt.The cause of the vibrations and the extinction at comparatively fuel-rich conditions is the inadequate Flame stabilization of the burner. The burner will stabilized by the inner recirculation zone, which in the Head stage operation is supplied with additional fuel. The outer shear layer of the fuel / air mixture emerging from the burner, which has a much larger contact area between fresh gas and exhaust gas compared to the inner one Recirculation zone is available, however, so far not used for stabilization.
Hier will die Erfindung Abhilfe schaffen. Ihr liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den bekannten Brenner der Doppelkegelbauart mit einfachen konstruktiven Mitteln so zu verändern und ihn so zu betreiben, dass eine zusätzliche Stabilisierung der Flamme erfolgt, ohne dass es zu einer nennenswerten Erhöhung der Schadstoffemissionswerte kommt.The invention seeks to remedy this. You have the task based on the well-known burner of the double cone type with simple constructive means and to change it operate in such a way that additional stabilization of the Flame occurs without causing a significant increase of pollutant emission levels is coming.
Erfindungsgemäss wird dies dadurch erreicht, dass bei einem
Brenner gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 in der Brennersichel
mindestens eine Bohrungen angeordnet ist, welche
der Zufuhr von gasförmigem Brennstoff in die äussere Rezirkulationszone
dient. Erfindungsgemäss wird dies bei einem Verfahren
zum Betrieb des Brenners dadurch erreicht, dass ca. 3
bis 8% des gesamten gasförmigen Brennstoffes in die äussere
Rezirkulationszone eingemischt werden.According to the invention this is achieved in that one
Burner according to the preamble of
Die Vorteile der Erfindung bestehen unter anderem darin, dass die Flammenstabilität verbessert wird, d.h. es treten geringere Druckpulsationen in der Flamme auf. Ausserdem zeichnet sich der erfindungsgemässe Brenner gegenüber dem bekannten Stand der Technik durch eine niedrigere magere Löschgrenze aus, so dass er einen erweiterten Betriebsbereich aufweist. Durch die Intensivierung der äusseren Reaktionsfront ergibt sich als weiterer Vorteil eine verkürzte Ausbrandlänge.The advantages of the invention include that the flame stability is improved, i.e. there are fewer Pressure pulsations in the flame. Also draws the burner according to the invention compared to the known one State of the art due to a lower lean extinguishing limit off so that it has an expanded operating range. By intensifying the outer reaction front Another advantage is a shorter burnout length.
Es ist besonders zweckmässig, wenn die Bohrungen parallel zur Brennerachse ausgerichtet sind, weil diese Ausführung sehr einfach zu realisieren ist.It is particularly useful if the holes parallel to Burner axis are aligned because this version is very is easy to implement.
Ferner ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Bohrungen unter einem Winkel von ca. 45° zur Brennerachse schräg nach aussen angeordnet sind. Dann ist eine besonders intensive Mischung des Brennstoffes mit dem Abgas der äusseren Rezirkulationszone möglich. Gleiches wird in vorteilhafter Weise bewirkt, wenn die zusätzlichen Bohrungen in der Brennersichel derart angeordnet sind, dass sie eine Eindüsung des Brennstoffes in Gegendrallrichtung zur Drallrichtung des Abgases in der Rezirkulationszone bewirken. It is also advantageous if the holes under one An angle of approx. 45 ° to the burner axis is arranged obliquely outwards are. Then there is a particularly intense mix of Fuel with the exhaust gas from the outer recirculation zone possible. The same is advantageously done if the additional holes arranged in the burner sickle are that they inject the fuel in the opposite direction to the swirl direction of the exhaust gas in the recirculation zone cause.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles und der Fig. 1 bis 4 näher erläutert.The invention is described below using an exemplary embodiment and FIGS. 1 to 4 explained in more detail.
Fig. 1 zeigt in perspektivischer Darstellung den erfindungsgemässen Brenner. Zum besseren Verständnis ist es vorteilhaft, wenn gleichzeitig zu Fig. 1 die Schnitte in den Fig. 2 bis 4 herangezogen werden.Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the inventive Burner. For a better understanding, it is advantageous if at the same time as FIG. 1 the sections in FIG. 2 to 4 are used.
Der Brenner besteht aus zwei hohlen Teilkegelkörpern 1, 2,
die versetzt zueinander aufeinander liegen. Die Versetzung
der jeweiligen Mittelachsen 3, 4 der Teilkegelkörper 1, 2 zueinander
schafft auf beiden Seiten in spiegelbildlicher Anordnung
jeweils einen tangentialen Lufteintrittsschlitz 5, 6,
durch welche die Verbrennungsluft 7 in den Innenraum 8 des
Brenners gelangt. Die beiden Teilkegelkörper 1, 2 haben jeweils
einen zylindrischen Anfangsteil 9, 10, die ebenfalls
versetzt zueinander verlaufen, so dass auch in diesem Bereich
die tangentiale Lufteintrittsschlitze 5, 6 vorhanden sind. In
diesem zylindrischen Anfangsteil 9, 10 ist eine Düse 11 zur
Zerstäubung des flüssigen Brennstoffes 12 untergebracht. Der
Brenner kann auch ohne die zylindrischen Anfangsteile 9, 10
ausgeführt sein, so dass er rein kegelig ausgebildet ist.
Dann ist die Brennstoffdüse 11 direkt in der Kegelspitze untergebracht.
Die beiden Teilkegelkörper 1, 2 weisen je eine
Brennstoffleitung 13, 14 auf, die mit Öffnungen 15 versehen
sind, welche Brennstoffinjektoren darstellen. Durch die
Brennstoffinjektoren 15 wird gasförmiger Brennstoff 16 der
durch die tangentialen Lufteintrittsschlitze 5, 6 strömenden
Verbrennungsluft 7 zugemischt.The burner consists of two hollow
Brennraumseitig 17 weist der Brenner eine als Verankerung für
die Teilkegelkörper 1, 2 dienende Frontplatte 18 mit einer
Anzahl Bohrungen 19 auf, durch welche Verdünnungs- bzw. Kühlluft
20 dem vorderen Teil des Brennraumes 17 bzw. dessen Wand
zugeführt werden kann.
Wird zum Betrieb des Brenners flüssiger Brennstoff 12 verwendet,
so strömt dieser durch die Düse 11 und wird in einem
spitzen Winkel in den Brennerinnenraum 17 eingedüst, wobei
sich ein homogener Brennstoffspray einstellt. Das kegelige
Flüssigbrennstoffprofil 23 wird von einem tangential einströmenden
rotierenden Verbrennungsluftstrom 7 umschlossen. In
axialer Richtung wird die Konzentration des Flüssigbrennstoffes
12 fortlaufend durch die eingemischte Verbrennungsluft 7
verringert. Die optimale Brennstoffkonzentration über den
Querschnitt wird erst im Bereich des Wirbelaufplatzens, d.h.
im Bereich der inneren Rezirkulationszone 24 erreicht. Die
Zündung erfolgt an der Spitze der inneren Rezirkulationszone
24. Diese wird im sogenannten Kopfstufenbetrieb (nicht dargestellt)
mit Zusatzbrennstoff versorgt. Erst an dieser Stelle
entsteht eine stabile Flammenfront 25. Die Flammenstabilisation
ergibt sich durch Zunahme der Drallzahl in Strömungsrichtung
entlang der Kegelachse. Ein Rückschlagen der Flamme
in das Innere des Brenners tritt unter normalen Betriebsbedingungen
nicht auf.If
Wird gasförmiger Brennstoff 16 verbrannt, so geschieht die
Gemischbildung mit der Verbrennungsluft 7 in den Lufteintrittsschlitzen
5, 6, also vor Eintritt in den Brennerinnenraum
8.If
Erfindungsgemäss sind im Bereich der Brennersichel 26 eine
Reihe von Bohrungen 27 angeordnet, die der Zufuhr und Einmischung
von zusätzlichem gasförmigem Brennstoff 16 in die äussere
Rezirkulationszone 28 dienen. Der zusätzliche gasförmige
Brennstoff 16 kann im Extremfall auch nur über eine einzige
in der Brennersichel 26 angeordnete Bohrung 27 in die äussere
Rezirkulationszone 28 eingebracht werden.According to the invention in the area of the
Wie aus Fig. 2 hervorgeht, befindet sich diese äussere Rezirkulationszone
28 im äusseren Bereich des Brennraumes 17, nahe
der Wand der Brennkammer 21.As can be seen from Fig. 2, this outer recirculation zone is located
28 in the outer area of the
Die Bohrungen 27 können in verschiedener Weise in der Brennersichel
26 angeordnet sein, beispielsweise parallel zur
Brennerachse 22. In anderen Ausführungsbeispielen können sie
auch unter einem Winkel zur Brennerachse 22 von etwa 45°
schräg nach aussen angeordnet sein , so dass der zusätzliche
gasförmige Brennstoff 16 in Richtung Brennkammerwand eingedüst
wird. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Bohrungen
27 so angeordnet sind, dass der zusätzliche gasförmige Brennstoff
16 in Gegendrallrichtung zur Rezirkulationsströmung
eingebracht wird, weil dann eine besonders intensive Mischung
des Zusatzbrennstoffes mit dem rezirkulierendem Abgas erfolgt
und die darauf beruhende Flammenstabilisierung besonders hoch
ist.The
Der Brenner ist erfindungsgemäss so zu betreiben, dass nur
etwa 3 bis 8% des gesamten gasförmigen Brennstoffes durch die
Öffnungen 27 in die äussere Rezirkulationszone 28 gelangen.
Da an dieser Stelle bereits die Kühlluft 20 beigemischt ist
und die rezirkulierenden Abgase bereits einen Teil ihrer
fühlbaren Wärme an die Frontplatte 18 abgegeben haben, bewirkt
diese zusätzliche Brennstoffzugabe keine nennenswerte
Erhöhung der NOx-Emissionen. Dies trifft insbesondere dann
zu, wenn die Eindüsungen genügend klein sind, um eine Stabilisierung
an den Eintrittsstrahlen zu vermeiden. Nach der
Brennstoffeinmischung erfolgt nach einer gewissen Zündverzugszeit
Selbstzündung und zwar kurz vor oder direkt an der
äusseren Scherschicht des austretenden Brennstoff/Luft-Gemisches.According to the invention, the burner is to be operated such that only
about 3 to 8% of the total gaseous fuel through the
Durch die Erfindung wird eine externe Zusatzstabilisierung (durch Minipiloten) realisiert, die u.a. zu einer Erweiterung des Betriebsbereiches des Brenners und zu einer erhöhten Flammenstabilität führt.The invention provides an external additional stabilization (by mini pilots), which among other things to an extension the operating range of the burner and to an increased Flame stability leads.
Messungen an einem perfekt vorgemischten Versuchsbrenner haben gezeigt, dass eine Verschiebung der mageren Löschgrenze um ca. 100K zu kleineren Temperaturen hin mit einer sehr geringen Zunahme der Schadstoffemissionen (zusätzlich ca. 1,5 vppmd 15%O2, d.h. Konzentration des NOx im trockenen Abgas) möglich ist.Measurements on a perfectly premixed test burner have shown that a shift of the lean extinguishing limit by approx. 100K to lower temperatures with a very small increase in pollutant emissions (additionally approx. 1.5 vppmd 15% O 2 , ie concentration of NOx in the dry exhaust gas ) is possible.
In Fig. 4 ist in einem Querschnitt eine konkrete Ausführung
der Erfindung dargestellt. Der Querschnitt zeigt den Bereich
der Brenneraustrittssichel 26. In der Sichel 26 sind an 14
Positionen am Umfang mit einer Winkelteilung von etwa 10°
Bohrungen 26 mit einem Durchmesser von 0,8mm angeordnet. Die
Anzahl und Grösse der Bohrungen 26 wurde so gewählt, dass ca.
3% des gesamten Brennstoffmassenstromes dort austreten und in
die in Fig. 4 nicht dargestellte äussere Rezirkulationszone
28 eingemischt werden.4 is a concrete embodiment in a cross section

Lösung kann ebenso auch für Brenner verwendet werden,
die aus mehr als zwei Teilkegelkörpern bestehen, z.B. für sogenannte
Vierschlitzbrenner. Die Bohrungen 27 können ausserdem
sowohl in ihrer Anzahl als auch in ihrer Position in der
Brennersichel 26 variieren. Es ist lediglich darauf zu achten,
dass der zusätzliche Brennstoffmassenstrom, der in die
äussere Rezirkulationszone eingemischt wird, nicht mehr als
ca. 8% des Gesamtbrennstoffes ausmacht.The inventive
