Definitions

  • Fuel-oxygen burner and method of operating the burner are Fuel-oxygen burner and method of operating the burner
  • the invention relates to a fuel-oxygen burner for a low-emission combustion in the high-temperature region according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for operating the burner according to the preamble of claim 11,
  • An improved burner is described in EP 0 898 687 B1. In this burner open a fuel supply and four, with respect to the axis of the central
  • this burner also shows in operation still insufficient pollutant values.
  • costly De NOO systems are used.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a fuel-oxygen burner available, with an economic and at the same time low-emission (low NO x ) combustion in the high temperature range is possible.
  • This object is achieved by a fuel-oxygen burner with the features of claim 1 and by a method for operating the burner with the features of claim 11.
  • a fuel-oxygen burner is used, which is recycled with technical oxygen as the oxidant or with a predominantly oxygen-containing oxidant in the presence of recirculating
  • the burner for low-emission combustion in the high-temperature range advantageously in melting furnaces, particularly advantageous in glass melting, usable burner with a arranged in a main burner brick with additional burner burner burner body with at least one merging chamber of the auxiliary burner burner fuel feed channel and with, guided by the additional burner block and into a combustion chamber the main burner brick opening oxygen supply ducts is characterized in that the center axis of the fuel supply duct on the central axis of the main burner block and the oxygen nozzles are arranged around the central fuel supply duct on a pitch circle.
  • the burner contains a plurality, preferably two to twelve, particularly advantageously eight oxygen nozzles.
  • the pitch circle formed by the oxygen nozzles has a minimum distance A from the central fuel supply passage, the one
  • Multiple of the nozzle diameter is, preferably 2.5 to 32 times the nozzle diameter.
  • the mixing chamber of the auxiliary burner block opens by an exit into the combustion chamber of the main burner block.
  • Mixing chamber of the additional burner block and the combustion chamber are at least over part of their longitudinal extent substantially cylindrical, preferably circular cylindrical, formed.
  • This burner design according to the invention allows the oxygen at a speed 2.5 to 3.3 times higher than the fuel in the Burner combustion chamber flows in, thereby ensuring a burner power total pulse current of 15 to 25 N / MW and a ratio of pulse current densities of oxygen and fuel of 5 to 15 and thereby at the outlet of the main burner brick a power density 0.05 to 2 KW / mm 2 is reached.
  • the length of the circular cylindrical mixing chamber formed in the auxiliary burner block is from 1.2 to 2.5 times the chamber diameter and the length of the circular cylindrical combustion chamber formed in the main burner block is from 0.05 to 0.6 times the diameter of the outlet at the main burner block.
  • the fuel supply duct is advantageously equipped with a sensor connected to an evaluation unit, for example with a UV light receiver arranged expediently for flame monitoring.
  • the main and auxiliary burner block expediently each consist of a heat and corrosion resistant material, preferably of ceramic. It is also possible to make main and auxiliary burner stones in one piece.
  • the burner body and the fuel-oxygen supply passages and the oxygen nozzles are made of a heat and corrosion resistant material, preferably of a NiCr or ODS alloy.
  • the burner body is preferably firmly connected to the main burner block so that a seal between the main burner block and the burner body and thus a secure attachment of the burner body is ensured on the main burner block, preferably by means of a screw connection.
  • usable fuel-oxygen burner is structurally simple and therefore cost-effectively adaptable to the different conditions of use and can with technical oxygen as the oxidant but also be operated with an oxygen-containing oxidant.
  • fuel all conventional gaseous or liquid fuels, particularly advantageous natural gas, can be used.
  • Figure 1 is a section through a arranged in a main burner block, inventive fuel-oxygen burner.
  • FIG. 2 shows the view X of the fuel outlet of the fuel-oxygen burner of FIG. 1.
  • the burner shown in FIG. 1 shows a metallic burner body 3 arranged in a main burner block 1 with additional burner block 2.
  • the additional burner block 2 is received in a recess or bore of the main burner block 1.
  • the burner body 3 includes a arranged with its central axis on the central axis of the main burner block 1 feed channel 4 for fuel, which opens into a cylindrical in the additional burner block 2 mixing chamber 10, which has a formed in the additional burner block 2 outlet 6 with a likewise cylindrical, in the main burner block. 1 connected to exit 7 trained combustion chamber 11 is connected.
  • FIG. 2 shows a fuel-oxygen burner equipped with eight oxygen nozzles 8 and a central supply duct 4 for fuel.
  • the arranged on a pitch oxygen nozzles 8 have a minimum distance A from the central fuel supply passage 4, which is 2.5 to 32 times the nozzle diameter b.
  • the arranged with its burner body 3 in a main burner block 1 with additional burner block 2 fuel-oxygen burner natural gas is supplied as fuel and oxygen as the oxidant.
  • the natural gas fed to the central supply duct 4 flows into the mixing chamber 10 formed in the auxiliary burner brick 2 at a speed of 60 to 90 m / s and into the combustion chamber 11 formed in the main burner brick 1 through the outlet 6.
  • the oxygen supplied to each supply passage 5 of the burner then flows into the combustion chamber 11 through a nozzle 8 constricting the flow of oxygen at a speed of 70 to 100 m / s.
  • the oxygen flows at a speed 2.5 to 3.3 times higher than the natural gas into the combustion chamber 11.
  • the fuel which has flowed into the combustion chamber 11 of the main burner block 1 is partially burned with the oxygen which has flowed into the combustion chamber 11.
  • a stable flame is formed which delivers a sufficient signal to a sensor 12 provided in the exemplary embodiment, preferably a UV light receiver, for monitoring the flame of the burner in the fuel supply duct 4 is arranged and connected to an evaluation unit, not shown here.
  • Due to the burner design according to the invention is based on the burner power total pulse current of 15 to 25 N / MW with a ratio of the pulse current densities of oxygen and fuel from 5 to 15 and thus a power density of 0.05 to 2 KW / mm 2 at the outlet 7 of the main burner block. 1 achieved the fuel-oxygen burner.
  • the main and auxiliary burner block 1 and 2 in the exemplary embodiment each consist of a ceramic material, the burner body 3, the supply channels 4, 5 and the oxygen nozzles 8 made of a NiCr or ODS alloy.
  • the burner body 3 is connected to the main burner block 1 such that a seal between the main burner block 1 and burner body 3 and a secure attachment of the burner body 3 is ensured on the main burner block 1.
  • a fixing is a 4-fold
  • Screw consisting of a threaded bolt 14, a nut 16, a counter-holder 15 and a seal 13 is provided.
  • the NOx values given in the above overview refer to 3% by volume of residual oxygen in the exhaust gas, an N 2 concentration of 1% by volume in natural gas H, a furnace overpressure of 0.3 mbar and a burner output of 700 kW ,
