Definitions
- the invention relates to a multiple burner arrangement with a plurality of individual burners designed as premix burners, which are used to fire a combustion chamber for a heat engine, preferably for a gas turbine system, and each have a swirl chamber, into which combustion air and fuel are fed to form a swirl flow, wherein the swirl flow downstream of the premix burner forms a spatially largely stable return flow zone within the combustion chamber, in which a burner flame forms after the fuel-air mixture is ignited.
- a method for operating such a multiple burner arrangement is also described.
- annular combustion chamber arrangement can be found, for example, in EP 597 138 B1, which provides a large number of annularly arranged premix burners, as can be found, for example, in EP 387 532 A1 and are each designed as double-cone burners, which provide a swirl space which is enclosed on the radial side by two hollow conical partial bodies , whose respective central axes are offset from one another, so that adjacent walls of two partial cone bodies include tangential slots for the combustion air in their longitudinal extent.
- Liquid fuel can be fed into the swirl chamber, which widens conically in the axial direction, via a fuel nozzle arranged largely centrally within the swirl chamber.
- the premix burner can be supplied with gaseous fuel via gas inflow openings distributed along the tangential slots within the wall of both partial cone bodies.
- gas inflow openings distributed along the tangential slots within the wall of both partial cone bodies.
- a mixture is already formed with the combustion supply air in zones of the inlet slots, a fuel concentration which is as homogeneous as possible over the entire cross section of the swirl chamber being formed along the swirl flow which propagates axially within the swirl chamber.
- a defined dome-shaped backflow zone is created at the burner outlet, at the tip of which the ignition takes place, forming a spatially stable burner flame within the zone.
- the fuel supply for each individual premix burner is generally carried out via a so-called pilot stage when the gas turbine is started up and at low load ranges, which, depending on the design of the premix burner, acts as a central burner lance, as described, for example, in DE 19652 899 A1 is described, or is designed as a pilot gas supply provided directly at the burner outlet in the flow direction in front of the combustion chamber.
- fuel is added directly to the flow zone required for flame stabilization, which, however, burns in an extremely unfavorable mixing ratio under almost stoichiometric conditions for pollutant emissions.
- Such then-acoustic vibrations also preferably occur in premix operation, i.e. in the middle and upper load range, by which the flame stability forming within the combustion chamber is severely impaired.
- DE 101 08 560 A1 proposes the symmetry previously used in the fuel supply of all to specifically break open the premix burner provided in the multiple burner arrangement in order to effectively reduce the occurrence of combustion chamber pulsations.
- At least one premix burner is operated in such a way that the at least one premix burner has a spatial mixture profile within the fuel-air mixture that differs from all other premix burners provided in the multiple burner arrangement.
- the at least one premix burner provides a fuel feed for the gaseous fuel that differs from all other premix burners along the partial cone shells radially delimiting the conical swirl space.
- the invention is based on the object of developing a multiple burner arrangement with a plurality of individual burners designed as premix burners, in particular for operating a gas turbine system, in such a way that the operation of a large number of individual premix burners is as flexible or variable as possible depending on the respective load state and the parameters influencing the combustion process, as mentioned above, can be optimized.
- it is important to create a way of regulating which optimizes the operation of a multiple burner arrangement with regard to pollutant emissions and significantly reduces the pulsations caused by the combustion in the entire load range.
- the solution to the problem on which the invention is based is specified in claim 1.
- the subject of claim 8 is a method for operating a multiple burner arrangement, such as is suitable for the operation of an annular combustion chamber, for example.
- the multiple burner arrangement according to the invention is based on the targeted use of premix burner systems which can be operated in stages and which have means for internally graduated fuel injection into the swirl chamber for the premix operation.
- each individual premix burner provided in the multiple burner arrangement is supplied with fuel, preferably so-called gaseous fuel, via at least two separate fuel lines, a so-called first and a second fuel line, through which the fuel is fed into the swirl chamber to further develop the swirl flow.
- the respective first fuel line of each premix burner is connected to a first ring line, via which the respective first fuel lines of all premix burners within the multiple burner arrangement are supplied with fuel.
- a second ring line is also provided, which is connected to the second fuel line of each individual premix burner provided in the multiple burner arrangement.
- a control unit influencing the fuel supply for example a throttle valve, is provided in at least one of the fuel lines.
- the burner concept according to the invention with controllable fuel throttling at least in the case of specifically selected premix burners within a multiple burner arrangement, can be implemented both in premix burners with a burner lance or with an external pilot feed.
- the burner lances are connected to the first fuel line, which are fed with fuel from a common ring line.
- the multiple burner arrangement is operated in such a way that significantly more than half of the gaseous fuel is fed to the premix burners via the respective second fuel line via the fuel outlet openings, which extend along the air inlet slots.
- the burner concept according to the invention enables additional control units along the fuel lines branching off a ring line only in a selected group of those provided in the multiple burner arrangement
- premix burners a targeted breakdown of the symmetry in the temperature distribution along the flame forming within the combustion chamber, whereby a decisive influence on the reduction of the thermoacoustic vibrations forming within the combustion chamber can be exerted.
- control units provided in the fuel lines which are preferably designed as throttle valves, allow active regulation or control as a function of parameters influencing the combustion process, such as, for example, the moisture content in the combustion air which varies depending on the load range of the gas turbine arrangement, the ambient temperature, and change in the Fuel composition and aging of gas turbine components.
- FIG. 2 ac representation of alternative fuel lines for supplying fuel to a premix burner, 3a, b arrangement of two ring lines for firing a two-stage premix burner arrangement and FIG. 4 annular arrangement diagram for premix burners for firing an annular combustion chamber.
- FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section and a front view of a premix burner 1 with a stepped fuel supply, oriented in the flow direction S
- a burner lance 6 is provided, at least partially projecting through the center of the swirl chamber 3, which likewise has fuel outlet openings through which fuel can be fed into the swirl chamber 3.
- the fuel feed via lance stage 6 is preferably carried out when starting up the gas turbine system and in the lower load range. On the other hand, if the gas turbine is in the middle or upper load range, the fuel is fed in primarily via the fuel supply openings 5 extending along the partial cone shells.
- FIG. 2a schematically shows the fuel supply on an individual premix burner in the manner of an embodiment shown in FIG. 1.
- a first fuel line 7 is connected to the lance stage 6, whereas a second fuel line 8 is connected to the fuel inlet openings 5, which extend along the air inlet slots 4 within the partial cone shells 2.
- premix burner variant shown above it is also possible to have a graduated design according to the illustration in FIG. 2b To supply premix burners along two axially offset fuel feed areas 9, 10 separately via the fuel lines 7, 8 with fuel.
- FIG. 2c A further variant of the fuel feed is shown in FIG. 2c, in which a first fuel stage takes place via an external pilot stage 11, which is provided after the burner outlet and upstream of the combustion chamber BK.
- the second burner stage corresponds to the fuel feed openings 5 distributed along the partial cone shells 2 along the air inlet slots 4 in the illustration shown in FIG. 2b.
- a circuit diagram for the fuel supply for the individual fuel lines 7, 8 can be seen schematically from FIG. 3, by means of which premix burners (not shown) are supplied with fuel in the manner shown in FIG.
- the fuel lines 7 of all premix burners are connected to a first ring line 12 and the fuel lines 8 are correspondingly connected to a second ring line 13.
- at least one control device 14 is used, with which a selectively adjustable fuel distribution can be made via the respective ring lines 12, 13 can.
- additional control units 15, preferably controllable throttle valves, are provided, by means of which a targeted throttling of the fuel supply is possible via the first fuel line 7 in the example, which is preferably connected to the burner lance.
- FIG. 4 shows a schematic representation of a multiple burner arrangement for firing an annular combustion chamber.
- 18 premix burners are arranged evenly distributed on an annular surface, of which those premix burners are operated without restriction with a black dot, the others, each marked with a circle, are throttled, for example operated with a throttled lance stage. Since, as shown above, the degree of fuel throttling can be set variably and ultimately for each individual, premix burner operated in a throttled manner, different irregular temperature profiles running along the circumference of the combustion chamber can be set, which are able to decisively influence the combustion process.
- the combustion process can be optimized directly in the operation of the gas turbine by a controlled influence on specific premix burners which can be operated throttled in the multiple burner arrangement.
- the 18 premix burners arranged in FIG. 4 for firing an annular combustion chamber are designed with an internal burner fuel stage with one lance and one burner stage. While both of the burner stages are completely open at 12 of the burners, the lance stages are completely closed at the remaining 6 burners.
- this burner arrangement allows an operating range that is acceptable in terms of pollutant emissions if 10 - 50% of the total fuel supplied to the burners is introduced through the lance stage. In this way it is possible to include the azimuthal burner group of the lean burner group set the burners 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16 in a range of 16 - 30% based on the total amount of fuel introduced.
- the burner concept according to the invention can not only be successfully used for ring combustion chambers, but also for burner arrangements which provide individual burners distributed uniformly or unevenly over a surface, for example for firing a pot combustion chamber. It is thus possible, by appropriately positioning throttled premix burners, in addition to the variant already described for the azimuthal burner grouping, to also set any radial temperature profiles. Variants are also conceivable in which burner arrangements are arranged axially one behind the other, for example in the case of axially stepped combustion chambers.
