Abstract
Beschrieben wird eine Dämpfungsvorrichtung zur Reduzierung der Schwingungsamplitude akustischer Wellen für einen Brenner zum Betrieb einer Brennkraftmaschine, vorzugsweise zum Antrieb einer Gasturbogruppe, mit einem Mischbereich, in dem eine Luft- und Brennstoffströmung zu einem Brennstoff-/Luft-Gemisch miteinander vermischt werden, und einer Brennkammer, die in Strömungsrichtung des Brennstoff-/Luft-Gemisch dem Mischbereich nachgeordnet ist, in der das Brennstoff-/Luft-Gemisch entzündbar ist.A damping device for reducing the vibration amplitude is described acoustic waves for a burner for operating an internal combustion engine, preferably for driving a gas turbine group, with a Mixing area in which an air and fuel flow to a fuel / air mixture are mixed together, and a combustion chamber, which in Direction of flow of the fuel / air mixture downstream of the mixing area in which the fuel / air mixture is flammable.
Die Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß ein Helmholtz-Resonator (4) derart unmittelbar mit dem Mischbereich (2) des Brenners verbunden ist, daß die sich im Brenner ausbildenden akustischen Wellen im Helmholtz-Resonator unterdrückt und nicht in den Brenner zurückreflektiert werden. The invention is characterized in that a Helmholtz resonator (4) is connected directly to the mixing area (2) of the burner in such a way that the acoustic waves which form in the burner are suppressed in the Helmholtz resonator and are not reflected back into the burner.
