Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Regelungsverfahren für Gasbrenner.The invention relates to a control method for gas burners.

Regelungsverfahren für Gasbrenner dienen der Bereitstellung eines Gas/Luft-Gemisches, also dem Zuführen eines Gasstroms und eines Verbrennungsluftstroms zu einem Brenner.Control methods for gas burners serve the provision a gas / air mixture, ie the supply of a gas stream and a combustion air flow to a burner.

Um innerhalb des Gasbrenners für eine optimale und vollständige Verbrennung des Brennstoffs, nämlich des Gases, zu sorgen, muss der Gasbrenner mit einem entsprechend abgestimmten Gas/Luft-Gemisch versorgt werden. Das Verhältnis zwischen dem Gasstrom und dem Verbrennungsluftstrom bzw. dem Gasdruck und dem Verbrennungsluftdruck bezeichnet man als Übersetzungsverhältnis. Da jedoch die Qualität des von der Gasversorgung bereit gestellten Gases - die Qualität von Gas wird durch einen sog. Wobbe-Index definiert - schwankt, muss zur Gewährleistung einer optimalen und vollständigen Verbrennung das Gas/Luft-Gemisch in Abhängigkeit von der Qualität des Gases entsprechend variiert werden.To within the gas burner for optimal and complete Combustion of the fuel, namely the gas, too Ensure the gas burner has a properly tuned Gas / air mixture are supplied. The relationship between the gas stream and the combustion air stream or the gas pressure and the combustion air pressure are called as a gear ratio. However, since the quality of the Gas supply of provided gas - quality of gas is defined by a so-called Wobbe index, varies, needs to ensure optimal and complete Combustion of the gas / air mixture depending be varied according to the quality of the gas.

Um die Qualität des bereit gestellten Gases berücksichtigen zu können, sind aus dem Stand der Technik Regelungsverfahren bekannt, bei denen ein Signal eines Sensors zur Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet wird. So wird bei den Regelungsverfahren gemäß DE-A-44 33 425, DE 39 37 290 A1 sowie DE 195 39 568 C1 ein Ionisationssignal einer in die Brennerflamme des Gasbrenners ragenden Messelektrode zur Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet. Bei den bekannten Regelungsverfahren gemäß DE-A-44 33 425, DE 39 37 290 A1 sowie DE 195 39 568 C1 wird das Signal des Sensors über den gesamten Arbeitsbereich bzw. Betriebsbereich des Brenners zur Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet. Auch wird bei diesen Regelungsverfahren das Signal des Sensors über die gesamte Betriebszeit des Brenners verwendet.To consider the quality of the provided gas To be able to, are from the state of the art regulatory procedure known in which a signal from a sensor for adaptation of the gas / air mixture to different gas qualities is used. So will the regulatory procedure according to DE-A-44 33 425, DE 39 37 290 A1 and DE 195 39 568 C1 an ionization signal into the burner flame of the Gas burner protruding measuring electrode for adjusting the Gas / air mixture used to different gas qualities. In the known control method according to DE-A-44 33 425, DE 39 37 290 A1 and DE 195 39 568 C1 is the Signal from the sensor over the entire working area or Operating range of the burner to adapt the gas / air mixture used on different gas qualities. Also In this control method, the signal of the sensor used over the entire operating time of the burner.

Da jedoch bei geringen Betriebslasten des Brenners das Signal eines Ionisationssensors keine verlässliche Auskunft über die tatsächlich im Brenner herrschenden Verbrennungsverhältnisse liefert, wird in der DE 198 24 523 A1 ein Regelungsverfahren für Gasbrenner vorgeschlagen, bei dem das Signal des Sensors ausschließlich in einem Bereich in der Nähe eines Brenner-Volllastbetriebs zur Einstellung des Übersetzungsverhältnisses in Abhängigkeit der Gasqualität verwendet wird. Sobald der Arbeitszustand des Brenners diesen Bereich in der Nähe des Brenner-Volllastbetriebs verlässt, wird das Gas/Luft-Gemisch unter Beibehaltung des zuletzt bestimmten Übersetzungsverhältnisses geregelt. Auch bei dem Regelungsverfahren gemäß DE 198 24 523 A1 wird jedoch, insofern der Brenner in den Bereich in der Nähe des Brenner-Volllastbetriebs betrieben wird, das Signal des Sensors über die gesamte Betriebszeit des Brenners verwendet.However, with low operating loads of the burner, the signal an ionization sensor no reliable information about the actual combustion conditions in the burner provides, in DE 198 24 523 A1 a control method proposed for gas burners, in which the Signal of the sensor exclusively in an area in the Near a burner full load operation to set the Transmission ratio depending on the gas quality is used. Once the working condition of the burner this Area near the burner full load operation leaves, is the gas / air mixture while maintaining the last certain translation ratio. Also In the control method according to DE 198 24 523 A1, however, insofar as the burner in the area near the Burner full load operation, the signal of the Sensor used over the entire operating time of the burner.

Aus der DE 196 18 573 C1 ist ein Verfahren und eine Einrichtung zum Betrieb eines Gasbrenners bekannt, bei der eine kontinuierliche Überwachung des Brenners durchgeführt wird. Aus Sicherheitsgründen ist eine Abschaltung des Brenners vorgesehen, die diesen abschaltet, sobald Unregelmäßigkeiten beim Betrieb des Brenners festgestellt werden. Weiterhin ist aus dieser Druckschrift bekannt, den Brenner bzw. die Regelschaltung des Brenners in regelmäßigen Intervallen zu kalibrieren, um ein ordnungsgemäßes Funktionieren der Vorrichtung zu gewährleisten.From DE 196 18 573 C1 is a method and a device for the operation of a gas burner, in which a Continuous monitoring of the burner performed becomes. For safety reasons is a shutdown of the burner provided that shuts them off as soon as irregularities be detected during operation of the burner. Furthermore, from this document known, the burner or the control circuit of the burner at regular intervals to calibrate to function properly to ensure the device.

Die DE 196 39 487 A1 beschreibt ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Betriebsoptimierung eines Gasbrenners. Gemäß dieser Druckschrift sollen Kalibriervorgänge durchgeführt werden, um den ordnungsgemäßen Betrieb des Brenners zu gewährleisten. Der Druckschrift ist zu entnehmen, dass bei Installation des Brenners ein- oder zweimal am Tag dieser bzw. die Regelung kalibriert werden soll. Weiterhin kann bei selten eingeschalteten Anlagen jeder Einschaltung ein solcher Kalibriervorgang vorgeschaltet werden. Die Anlage soll also bei Installation des Brenners regelmäßig kalibriert werden und weiterhin vor jeder Einschaltung eine Kalibrierung durchgeführt werden, um den ordnungsgemäßen Betrieb des Brenners zu gewährleisten.DE 196 39 487 A1 describes a method and a device for optimizing the operation of a gas burner. According to This document is intended to carry out calibration procedures to ensure the proper operation of the burner. The document shows that at Installation of the burner once or twice a day this or the control should be calibrated. Furthermore, can in case of rarely activated systems, every activation is on be preceded by such calibration. The attachment So should be calibrated regularly when installing the burner and continue to calibrate before each turn on be carried out to ensure proper operation to ensure the burner.

Aus der EP 0 209 771 A ist ein Regelungsverfahren für Gasbrenner bekannt, bei dem ein Signal eines Sensors verwendet wird, um das Gas-/Luft-Gemisch an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten anzupassen. Dieses Signal wird ausschließlich zu ausgewählten Zeitpunkten, z.B. bei Inbetriebnahme zur Anpassung des Gas-/Luft-Gemisches, das dem Brenner zugeführt wird, an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet.From EP 0 209 771 A is a control method for gas burners known in which uses a signal of a sensor is the gas / air mixture to different gas qualities adapt. This signal is exclusive to selected times, e.g. during commissioning for adaptation of the gas / air mixture supplied to the burner is used to different gas qualities.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Regelungsverfahren für einen Gasbrenner zu schaffen, das einen optimalen Betrieb des Gasbrenners auch über einen längeren Zeitraum gewährleistet. The invention is based on the object, a control method to create a gas burner that is optimal Operation of the gas burner even over a longer period guaranteed.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Gemäß der Erfindung wird, wenn das Übersetzungsverhältnis des Gas/Luft-Gemisches den definierten Bereich verlässt, die Ober- oder die Untergrenze dieses Bereichs als neues festgelegtes Übersetzungsverhältnis verwendet. Auf diese Weise wird das Übersetzungsverhältnis modifiziert und dem Betriebszustand des Brenners angepasst, indem die Oberoder die Untergrenze des definierten Bereichs, die vom Gas/Luft-Gemisch verlassen wird, als neues Übersetzungsverhältnis herangezogen wird.This object is solved by the features of claim 1. According to the invention, when the gear ratio the gas / air mixture leaves the defined area, the upper or lower limit of this range as used new fixed gear ratio. On this way, the gear ratio is modified and adapted to the operating condition of the burner by the upper or the lower bound of the defined area, that of the Gas / air mixture is left, as a new gear ratio is used.

Bei dem Regelungsverfahren für Gasbrenner geht es um die Bereitstellung eines Gas/Luft-Gemisches für einen Brenner. Hierzu wird dem Brenner ein Gasstrom und ein Verbrennungsluftstrom zugeführt. Das Verhältnis zwischen Gasstrom und Verbrennungsluftstrom bzw. das Verhältnis zwischen Gasdruck und Verbrennungsluftdruck bezeichnet man als Übersetzungsverhältnis.The regulation procedure for gas burners is about the Provision of a gas / air mixture for a burner. For this purpose, the burner is a gas stream and a combustion air stream fed. The ratio between gas flow and Combustion air flow or the ratio between gas pressure and combustion air pressure is referred to as a gear ratio.

Mit Hilfe eines von einem Sensor erzeugten Signals wird der Verbrennungsprozess im Brenner überwacht. Bei dem Sensor kann es sich z.B. um einen Ionisationssensor, einen anderen Flammenüberwachungssensor, einen Gasqualitätssensor, einen Rauschgassensor, einen Verbrennungsgassensor oder dgl. handeln. Aus dem Sensorsignal können Informationen über den Verbrennungsprozess und somit über die vorhandene Gasqualität gewonnen werden.With the help of a signal generated by a sensor is the Combustion process monitored in the burner. At the sensor it can be e.g. one ionization sensor, another Flame monitoring sensor, a gas quality sensor, a Noise gas sensor, a combustion gas sensor or the like act. From the sensor signal information about the Combustion process and thus the existing gas quality be won.

Erfindungsgemäß wird das Signal des Sensors ausschließlich zu ausgewählten Zeitpunkten zur Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet. Hierdurch ist sicher gestellt, dass die Regelung durch Alterungsprozesse des Sensors nicht negativ beeinflusst wird. According to the invention, the signal of the sensor is exclusive at selected times to adjust the gas / air mixture used on different gas qualities. This ensures that the regulation through aging processes of the sensor is not adversely affected.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird das Signal des Sensors im unmittelbaren Anschluss an die Installation des Sensors im unmittelbaren Anschluss an einen Neustart des Gasbrenners und/oder im unmittelbaren Anschluss an einen Reset zur Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten verwendet, wird in Abhängigkeit des hierbei ermittelten Übersetzungsverhältnisses ein Bereich mit einer Obergrenze und einer Untergrenze für das Übersetzungsverhältnis des Gas/Luft-Gemisches ermittelt, und wird dann, wenn das mit Hilfe des Sensorsignals ermittelte Übersetzungsverhältnis diesen Bereich verlässt, die Obergrenze oder die Untergrenze als Übersetzungsverhältnis des Gas/Luft-Gemisches verwendet. Beim Überschreiten der Obergrenze wird selbstverständlich die Obergrenze und beim Unterschreiten der Untergrenze wird die Untergrenze als Übersetzungsverhältnis verwendet. Hierdurch lassen sich auch negative Einflüsse auf die Regelung bedingt durch Alterungsprozesse des Sensors minimieren.According to the invention, the signal of the sensor is in the immediate Following the installation of the sensor in the immediate Connection to a restart of the gas burner and / or immediately after a reset for adjustment of the gas / air mixture to different gas qualities is used, depending on the determined Translation ratio an area with a Upper limit and a lower limit for the transmission ratio of the gas / air mixture, and then, if the determined using the sensor signal transmission ratio leaves this area, the upper limit or the lower limit as the ratio of the Gas / air mixture used. When exceeding the upper limit is of course the upper limit and falls below the lower limit becomes the lower limit as a gear ratio used. This can also be done negative influences on the regulation due to aging processes minimize the sensor.

Das erfindungsgemäße regelungsverfahren ist unabhängig von der Art des verwendeten Sensors oder Systems. Es kann bei herkömmlichen Systemen, wie beschrieben in der DE 196 39 487 oder auch bei sog. elektronischen Gasreglern gemäß der WO 99/63272 und WO 99/63273, zum Einsatz kommen.The control method according to the invention is independent of the type of sensor or system used. It can at conventional systems as described in DE 196 39 487 or so-called electronic gas regulators according to the WO 99/63272 and WO 99/63273 are used.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anpassung des Gas/Luft-Gemisches an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten kann auch als Kalibrierung bezeichnet werden.The adaptation according to the invention of the gas / air mixture Different gas qualities can also be used as calibration be designated.

In diesem Zusammenhang soll des Weiteren angemerkt werden, dass das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren auch bei modulierenden Gasreglern zum Einsatz kommen kann, bei denen im unmittelbaren Anschluss an die Installation des Sensors, im unmittelbaren Anschluss an einen Neustart des Gasbrenners und/oder im unmittelbaren Anschluss an einen Reset nicht nur das Gas/Luft-Gemisch an unterschiedliche Gasqualitäten angepasst wird, sondern auch das Eingangssignal für den modulierenden Gasregler zu diesen Zeitpunkten optimiert wird. In diesem Fall wird der Gasbrenner dann stets mit einem optimierten Gas/Luft-Gemisch und einem optimierten Eingangssignal für den modulierenden Gasregler gestartet. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass eine Kalibrierung zwischen dem Eingangssignal und dem Ausgangssignal eines derartigen modulierenden Gasreglers entfallen kann.In this context, it should also be noted that the inventive method also in modulating Gas regulators can be used, where in the immediate Following the installation of the sensor, in the immediate Connection to a restart of the gas burner and / or immediately after a reset only the gas / air mixture to different gas qualities is adjusted, but also the input signal for the modulating Gas regulator is optimized at these times. In this case, the gas burner is then always with an optimized Gas / air mixture and an optimized input signal started for the modulating gas regulator. this has the advantage of having a calibration between the input signal and the output of such a modulating one Gas regulator can be omitted.
