Definitions

  • the invention relates to a catalytic burner, in particular for a Gas turbine plant with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a catalyst structure which is a heat-resistant Carrier material which has the common walls of a plurality of adjacent Forms channels. These channels penetrate the catalyst structure in Longitudinal direction and allow a flow through the catalyst structure a gaseous reaction mixture. At least part of the walls are with one Coated catalyst. There are some in the known catalyst structure Channels at least partially coated on their inner walls with the catalyst, while other channels are nowhere coated with the catalyst. In this way, parallel flow channels are created, of which the one is catalytically active and the others are catalytically inactive or inert. There in no combustion reaction takes place in the inert channels, these serve for Cooling of the active channels to prevent the catalyst structure from overheating to avoid.
  • a catalyst structure is known, the support material is coated with a catalyst so that there is a gradient in the direction of flow for the reactivity of the catalyst structure.
  • This reactivity gradient is designed so that the catalyst structure has the highest activity at the inlet has and has the least activity at its outlet, the activity decreases continuously or gradually in the direction of flow. Due to the high Catalytic activity at the inlet of the catalyst structure can cause the ignition temperature for the introduced reaction mixture can be reduced, which reduces the effort for measures to increase the temperature of the reaction mixture upstream the catalyst structure becomes smaller. Through the reactivity gradient Temperature peaks in the catalyst structure can be avoided. As a carrier material this catalyst structure becomes metallic or ceramic Monolith used.

No. 6,015,285 in which the catalyst layer, which is applied to the carrier material, a diffusion barrier layer is applied to the catalytic effect of the catalyst to reduce. This measure is also intended to overheat the catalyst structure prevent, which arises especially when the catalytic reaction is sufficient, trigger a homogeneous gas phase reaction within the catalyst structure.

  • the packing unit is made of right-angled Constructed of sheet material and has a large number of parallel, linear channels that have a rectangular, in particular square, cross-section exhibit. Vortex generators or turbulators are arranged in the channels, which cause the flow to swirl. These vortex generators form openings between adjacent channels and thereby enable one fluidic connection between the channels. In this way it happens too a flow mixture between adjacent channels.
  • this packing unit can also be through a porous Material made of metal fibers (fiber tissue) and with a catalyst be coated.
  • the catalyst layer has a through the fiber fabric very large surface area, which increases its activity.

  • Catalytically operating burners with a catalyst structure are used, for example, in the combustion of fossil fuels, for example methane gas, in particular when minimal NO x emissions are to be achieved.
  • Catalytically operating burners can form part of a gas turbine system and are used there to generate hot combustion exhaust gases, which are used to drive a turbine to drive a generator.
  • the main problems with this type of catalytic combustion are on the one hand in the relatively high ignition temperature of the gaseous reaction mixture, e.g. on Air / fuel mixture.
  • the relatively high ignition temperature can be a catalyst with high activity in the inlet region of the catalyst structure to be ordered.
  • the temperature of the reaction mixture upstream of the catalyst structure e.g. with an additional burner.
  • there is a risk of the catalyst structure overheating especially if there is still a homogeneous structure within the catalyst structure Forms gas phase reaction. Under a "homogeneous gas phase reaction" becomes the independently occurring combustion reaction of the reaction mixture understood that no longer requires a catalyst to run.
  • Burnout zone which is downstream of the catalyst structure is arranged, there is insufficient turbulence in the flow of the reaction mixture prevails, so that adequate combustion as well minimal CO emissions within a reasonable dwell time Burnout zone can only be realized with a relatively large or long burnout zone are.
  • Other problems can arise from the fact that in the individual channels the catalytic structure the catalytic reactions or conversions run differently, so that at the outlet of the catalyst structure in the outflowing Mixture no homogeneous reaction state along the flow cross section prevails.
  • the invention seeks to remedy this.
  • the invention as set out in the claims is concerned with the problem for a catalytic worker Burner of the type mentioned to specify an embodiment which enables improved catalytic combustion.
  • the invention is based on the general idea of adjacent channels of To connect the catalyst structure to one another through connection openings, see above that a flow exchange between these channels is made possible.
  • a flow exchange between these channels becomes possible.
  • This measure becomes a mixture of the gas flows of the individual channels enables, with the result that possibly developing different Reaction states within the channels over the cross section of the catalyst structure balance so that at the outlet of the catalyst structure a relative homogeneous reaction state exists over the entire flow cross-section.
  • This improvement can be followed by a catalyst structure Burnout zone can be made shorter.
  • connection openings can be assigned, which at least part of the flow of a channel into one communicating therewith through the connection opening redirect adjacent channel. These flow guidance means thus support the flow exchange between each other through the connection opening connected channels.
  • connection openings can be in the region a turbulator can be arranged.
  • a turbulator is raining a flow coming into contact with it to generate eddies, whereby form turbulence in the flow downstream of the turbulator.
  • receives the flow direction of the reaction mixture directional components that transversely to the longitudinal direction of the catalyst structure or transversely to the longitudinal extent the channels are directed. This creates a flow exchange between the Channels supported by the connection openings.
  • connection openings can preferably be used as turbulators be trained.
  • a flow exchange through the connection openings can also thereby be improved that the channels at least partially have a tortuous flow path form through the catalyst structure.
  • the coating of the walls be designed with the catalyst so that some of the channels are catalytically active while other channels are catalytically inactive or inert. Through this measure overheating of the catalytically active walls is avoided.
  • the walls with the catalyst so that at least some of the channels flow at least in the direction of flow a catalytically active zone and at least one catalytically inactive or have an inert zone.
  • the reaction state the reaction mixture, e.g. a fuel / air mixture, along the catalyst structure are controlled. This can cause the combustion reaction achieve a higher efficiency.
  • a special embodiment results from the fact that the coating of the Walls with the catalyst is designed so that at least some of the channels in Flow direction have several active zones, their activities are different are trained. This measure also enables targeted adjustment the desired reaction states along the catalyst structure.
  • the catalyst coated carrier material consist of a porous material.
  • the catalyst is relatively large Surface and can be particularly active. This has to As a result, the ignition temperature of the reaction mixture decreases.
  • a particularly high catalytic activity can be achieved if at least a part of the support material coated with the catalyst from a There is fiber tissue.
  • a fiber fabric has a particularly large one Surface that is catalyzed with a low ignition temperature for the reaction mixture results.
  • Embodiments of such a fiber fabric are described, for example, in WO 99/62629 and are by this reference is encompassed by the present invention.
  • a particular advantage of a carrier material formed from a fiber fabric consists in the combination of a low heat storage capacity in combination with good thermal conductivity. Because of these characteristics, it arises on the carrier material a uniform temperature distribution, for example temperature peaks avoids. Similar advantages can be achieved if instead of a fiber fabric a relatively thin metal foil is used as the carrier material.
  • those arranged in the channels can be influenced Turbulators are distributed along the catalyst structure so that the Catalyst structure in the flow direction at least one with the turbulators equipped zone and at least one not equipped with the turbulators Zone.
  • one of the at least one equipped with the turbulators Zones have the outlet end of the catalyst structure.
  • the zone having the outlet end is preferably the catalyst structure formed catalytically inactive or inert to the catalyst structure at this point to avoid overheating.
  • one of the at least one equipped with the turbulators should Zones have the inlet end of the catalyst structure, so the same at the beginning of the catalyst structure, the channel flows are mixed support.
  • An embodiment in which this zone is preferred is formed catalytically inactive or inert. This is how this starting zone works the catalyst structure like a static mixer for intensive mixing of the individual components of the reaction mixture, e.g. Fuel and air. Accordingly can in the burner according to the invention a conventional static Mixers are omitted or can be made smaller.
  • a the zone of the catalyst structure having the inlet end is equipped with turbulators and be formed catalytically inactive or inert, in one area at least between the inlet end and outlet end of the catalyst structure a catalytically active zone is formed, and one having the outlet end Zone of the catalyst structure equipped with turbulators and catalytic is inactive or inert.
  • Intensive mixing is then carried out again in the outlet zone the already burning or reacting partial flows of the individual channels, to prepare the homogeneous gas phase reaction in the burnout chamber.
  • the catalyst structure is not just the actual one Catalyst function, but also the function of a static Mixer at the inlet as well as the function of a mixer or turbulator at the outlet to ensure the homogeneous gas phase reaction in the burnout chamber improve, whereby their overall length can be reduced.
  • the burner according to the invention can have a zone of the catalyst structure which has the inlet end Turbulators equipped and be catalytically highly active, with in a region between the inlet end and outlet end of the catalyst structure a zone equipped without turbulators is catalytically active, wherein a zone of the catalyst structure with turbulators which has the outlet end Is provided.
  • the combustion reaction of the incoming reaction mixture started at the inlet, the high active catalytic converter enables low ignition temperatures. Since in the downstream If no turbulators are arranged in the area, this results in a relative low pressure loss, so that relatively high flow velocities prevail. This measure reduces the risk of being inside the catalyst structure the homogeneous gas phase reaction ignites.
  • the outlet zone there is again an intensive mixing of the emerging individual flows achieved to improve the formation of the homogeneous gas phase reaction.
