Definitions
- the invention relates to a solids distributor for injection plants, in particular for blast furnaces, with a chamber and a plurality of lancing lines leading away, the chamber having a feed connection for a solid to be distributed, such as ground coal.
- the invention further relates to a distributor head for such a solids distributor.
- ground-solid fuel in particular coal as fuel.
- This offers the advantage that over the conventionally used fuel, such as coke or even oil, significant savings in operating costs are possible.
- a plurality of nozzle lances is usually arranged around the furnace.
- the ground fuel is supplied to them via single pipes ("lance pipes").
- a fuel distributor is provided in order to distribute the milled fuel supplied from a grinder, such as a coal mill, or an intermediate conveyor, to the individual lines leading to the lances. This has a chamber, which is supplied via a connection of the ground fuel.
- a coal manifold having a pressure vessel with a chamber disposed thereunder ( DE-C-3603078 ).
- the chamber is divided into a plurality of separate sub-chambers, wherein each sub-chamber one of the lance lines is connected.
- a bottom connection for supplying carrier gas is provided at each subchamber.
- the EP 0 0680115 A2 discloses a chamber, similar to a collection chamber, with a, an annular gap in front of the wall opening for connecting lance lines forming displacement body. Powdery material is introduced from a reservoir by means of a screw conveyor in this mixing chamber to be distributed there to the lance lines. So that a uniform distribution is achieved on the lance lines, the conveyed by the screw conveyor powdery material is fluidized on entering the mixing chamber and brought into a vortex-shaped flow.
- the invention is based on the object, starting from the last-mentioned prior art to improve a solids distribution of the type mentioned in that a better homogenization is achieved with little effort.
- the chamber has a supply port for a solid to be distributed, provided that the chamber is surrounded by a common wall collecting chamber, so that the their connected lance lines are interconnected within the collection chamber, wherein geodetically above the collection chamber, a pressure vessel is arranged, the lower part is formed as a bunker and having an outlet connected to the supply port, and further the upper part is formed as a gas space.
- the essence of the invention is to provide the manifold with a collection chamber which is enclosed by a common wall, to which the lance lines are directly connected.
- the invention has recognized that a significant reason for the unsatisfactory quality of the distribution on the lance lines is a separation of the supplied solid from its delivery gas. As a result, the solid no longer reaches the manifold and lance lines in a homogeneous distribution, resulting in an uneven pulsating mass flow. These inhomogeneities are so large and have such a dynamic that they can often no longer be compensated by the individual regulations used according to the prior art on the individual lance lines; just as little can distributors with individual chambers, to each of which a lance line is connected, provide the necessary compensation.
- the merit of the invention to have recognized that the negative consequences of demixing can be counteracted only effectively with an improved distribution of raw material in the distributor itself, namely by connecting the lance lines to the common wall, and so relieve the individual lancing regulations or to make them superfluous in the ideal case. It is preferable to make the connections between the lances line connections within the collection chamber as an annular gap.
- the annular gap causes a tangential flow direction, which is particularly efficient for a balance between the radially directed material flows in the lance lines.
- the annular gap can be created in a simple manner, for example by a centrally arranged in the collection chamber displacement body whose outer side is spaced from the circumferential common wall and thus forms an annular gap.
- the displacement body is designed to be upwards, ie in the direction of the pressure vessel, tapered.
- its outer jacket forms an inclined surface with respect to the entering into the collection chamber solid and thus contributes even to the distribution on the individual lance lines.
- the formation of strands, in which a preferred flow channel is formed in the material in one of the lance lines, is effectively counteracted become.
- Particularly expedient and can be produced with little effort is a conical displacement body.
- the invention thus makes it possible to dispense with the complex single-lance control provided in the prior art. In addition, it also allows the supply of the solid over a longer feed line in front of the distributor. In addition, a greater flexibility with respect to the solids supply is achieved, so that the invention is also well suited for upgrading or retrofitting existing plants.
- solid By solid is meant herein fine or coarse-grained. They are preferably those materials which serve as fuel, such as, in particular, coal, for the charging of power plant burners, firing of blast furnaces, chalk chimneys or glass melting furnaces. However, it does not necessarily have to be fuel, but it can also be processed material.
- a control device which acts on the solid located in the bunker. By changing the supply, a homogenization can be achieved even under changing load conditions. It is particularly preferred if the control device is a filling height control for the solid. It is designed to keep the filling level in the container as constant as possible. Furthermore, it can be designed to ensure compliance with a minimum fill level during operation.
- the determination of the actual height is expediently carried out by determining the weight of the entire container, which is mounted on weight measuring cans for this purpose. However, the height can also be measured directly, for example by means of capacitive or microwave sensors.
- the control device can also be designed as pressure control. It serves to regulate the gas pressure applied to the supplied solid.
- a pressure sensor in the gas space of the pressure vessel is provided for this purpose.
- the pressure is used at a lower point, namely at the height of the connection of the lance lines to the common wall of the collection chamber.
- the pressure control is connected via a pressure surge-proof filter with the gas space. This ensures a robust operation even in harsh conditions.
- a controllable nitrogen feed is additionally arranged on the gas space of the pressure vessel.
- a closed loop can be formed, with the greater fluctuations in the supply of the solid, as they can occur especially over longer distances or in Kinton supply can be compensated.
- the pressure vessel is arranged directly on the collecting chamber.
- the solid which collects in the lower part of the pressure vessel formed as a bunker can then, directly under the influence of gravity, pass directly into the collecting chamber of the distributor without any further obstacle.
- the bunker is funnel-shaped. Even with small amounts of solids present in the pressure vessel, such a reliable supply is ensured, whereas with a large amount in the bunker, the filling level and thus the static pressure acting on the supply port only increase at a lower rate. Thus, a further homogenization is achieved.
- the pressure vessel is connected via a downpipe with the supply port of the collection chamber, wherein the downpipe may extend vertically or inclined. It is essential that the pressure vessel is located geodetically above the collection chamber.
- each have their own individual line control unit is arranged.
- Single line regulations for lance lines are known per se. Since a high basic uniformity between the individual lance lines is already achieved thanks to the arrangement according to the invention, the conditions are given to achieve a virtually perfect homogenization by means of a particularly sensitive acting single line control.
- As a further optional or alternative possibility for further homogenization gas supply can be provided, which preferably open at the bottom of the collection chamber. They cause an additional ventilation of the distributor from below, whereby a further system coupling is achieved.
- the invention further extends to a distributor head according to the features of claim 19. It is particularly suitable for substructure under existing pressure vessels and thus for easy retrofitting already existing, conventional Feststoffverteilanlagen.

- the conveyor system can be designed as a known per se twin pressure vessel system.
- the milled coal enters a supply line 3, by means of which it is fed to a coal distributor 6 at a blast furnace 99 (shown only for one strand).
- the line 3 may have a considerable distance, distances over several hundred meters up to one kilometer are possible.
- the supply line 3 opens into the upper region of a pressure vessel 4 of the coal distributor 6 which is designed as a gas space 41. Its lower region is designed as a coal bunker 42. From the coal bunker 42, the coal passes into a arranged below the pressure vessel 4 distribution head 7 of the coal distributor.
- a pressure vessel 4 of the coal distributor 6 which is designed as a gas space 41. Its lower region is designed as a coal bunker 42. From the coal bunker 42, the coal passes into a arranged below the pressure vessel 4 distribution head 7 of the coal distributor.
- in a strand of the pressure vessel 4 is located just above the distributor head 7, absolutely necessary this is not. It suffices an arrangement geodetic over the distributor head 7, wherein the connection can also be made via an inclined downpipe 67, as shown in the other strand.
- the distributor head 7 distributes the over the pressure vessel 4 fed coal on a plurality of lance lines 90, leading to nozzles 91 on the blast furnace 99.
- the pressure vessel 4 has an approximately cylindrical shape in its upper region acting as the gas space 41. In its lower region functioning as a coal bunker 42, the pressure vessel 4 has a conically tapered down shape. In the region of the gas space 41 opens at an input port 43, the line 3, via which the ground coal is supplied. In the upper region of the gas space 41, a pressure regulating device 5 is arranged. It comprises a filter 51, which is connected at its end to the upper vertex of the gas space 41, and whose other end is connected to a discharge line 53. The discharge line 53 includes a control valve 52 which is connected to a control device 59.
- a pressure sensor 54 and a fill level sensor are provided, which measure the gas pressure or fill level prevailing in the gas space 41 and transmit it as a measurement signal to the control device 59.
- the level measurement can be done directly, for example via a radar sensor 58, or indirectly via weight measuring cells 58 ', which are arranged in the foundation of the pressure vessel 4 and determine its total weight and therefrom the respective fill level.
- the illustrated embodiment also shows an optional nitrogen feed. It comprises a nitrogen line 57, which is connected via a control valve 56 to a gas connection 55 in the upper region of the gas space 41 of the pressure vessel.
- the nitrogen supply control valve 56 is also connected to the controller 59.
- an outlet opening 47 is formed. It is placed directly on a corresponding supply port 77 of the distributor head 7. This results in a direct and continuous connection from the coal bunker 42 in a common collecting chamber 72 of the distributor head 7.
- the common collecting chamber 72 is surrounded by a single circumferential cylindrical wall 73 in which a plurality of openings 74 is formed.
- the openings 74 are distributed at equal intervals approximately at half the height over the circumference of the wall 73. They function as connections for lance lines 90, and connect the collection chamber 72 with the blast furnace arranged nozzles 91.
- the cover plate 76 is optional and can be omitted if the cross section of the supply port 77 of the distributor head 7 is equal to the cross section of the outlet opening 47 of the coal bunker 42.
- FIG. 3 Such a variant is in Fig. 3 shown as a distributor head 7 '.
- Matching elements are denoted by the same reference numerals as in FIG Fig. 2 illustrated embodiment.
- the collection chamber 72 ' is open at the top.
- a plurality of radial baffles 79 are arranged in the collecting chamber 72 '. They extend in the illustrated embodiment over half the height of the collection chamber 72 ', but may also be higher or lower. They serve to purposefully swirl a flow circulating tangentially in the collection chamber 72 'in order to achieve better mixing.
- the baffles 79 also in the in Fig. 2 illustrated embodiment may be provided with cover plate 76.
- a cone 71 as a centrally arranged displacement body. Its lateral surface bounded by the circumferential wall 73 an annular gap 70. This not only forms a direct flow connection between the openings 74, but gives the flow in the common collection chamber 72 'a tangential component. It is reinforced by the baffles 79 and improves the mixing in the common collection chamber 72 'and thus the distribution of the coal on the lances 90 connected to the openings 74. This arrangement is particularly suitable for preventing or dissolving strands in the flow.
- nitrogen feeds 78 are expediently provided at the bottom 75 of the coal manifold 7. They supply nitrogen gas which serves to loosen and fluidize the coal in the collection chamber 72 so as to more uniformly transport it through the lance conduits 90 to the nozzles 91.
- an optional individual line control unit 8 is arranged on the lance lines 90. It comprises a quantity sensor 80 which acts on a control valve 82 via a compact control unit 81.
- the control valve 82 controls the supply of nitrogen supplied via a feed line 83 into the individual line 90.
- the individual line control units 8 of the various lance lines 90 can be operated autonomously or synchronized by a common control device (not shown). They are designed to finely adjust the flow of coal through the lance line 90 through a controllable supply of nitrogen.
- the operation of the arrangement is as follows. Ground coal is introduced via the line 3 via the port 43 in the pressure vessel 4. In the pressure vessel 4, a segregation takes place, wherein the coal falls in the lower than coal bunker 42 formed area and accumulates there. It has proven useful to form the coal bunker 42 so that it allows a filling height for the coal of at least one meter, advantageously even more.
- the nitrogen gas used for the supply of coal via the line 3 collects in the gas space 41. It can be discharged controlled from this via the pressure control device 5.
- the filter 51 is preferably designed shockproof to compensate for pressure surges in the supply of coal or adjustment of the control valve 52.
- nitrogen can additionally be fed into the gas space 41 via the control valve 56.
- the pressure control device 5 is operated so that the pressure and the density in the pressure vessel 4 are kept substantially constant even with fluctuating mass flow of the supplied via the supply line 3 coal, to a value which is sufficient for further transport to the blast furnace 99th This ensures that the same pressure difference acts across all the lance lines 90 in operation. Strictly speaking, the pressure required for further transport does not correspond exactly to the pressure in the gas space 41, but to the pressure, which is increased by the static pressure of the coal in the coal bunker 42 and the collecting chamber 72, in the common collecting chamber 72 at the level of the openings 74.
- the height of the coal in the coal bunker 42 is determined by the controller by means of the weight sensors 58 '.
- the Control is designed to determine from a weight gain or, decrease the level and thus differences between the fed and discharged coal mass flows.
- the aim here is to keep the level as constant as possible.
- the coal from the coal bunker 41 passes evenly into the collecting chamber 72 of the distributor head 7 enclosed by a common wall, whereby a uniform distribution of the coal to the lance lines 90 is achieved with the common collecting chamber 72.
- the individual line control units 8 may be provided. As described above, they detect, by means of the quantity sensor 80, the amount conveyed through the line, and may lead to the adaptation of this amount of additional nitrogen via the control valve 83. As a result, a very even supply of coal to the various nozzles 91 is achieved.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Feststoffverteiler für Einblasanlagen, insbesondere für Hochöfen, mit einer Kammer und mehreren wegführenden Lanzenleitungen, wobei die Kammer einen Zufuhranschluss für einen zu verteilenden Feststoff, wie gemahlene Kohle, aufweist. Die Erfindung betrifft weiter einen Verteilerkopf für einen solchen Feststoffverteiler.The invention relates to a solids distributor for injection plants, in particular for blast furnaces, with a chamber and a plurality of lancing lines leading away, the chamber having a feed connection for a solid to be distributed, such as ground coal. The invention further relates to a distributor head for such a solids distributor.
Zur Beheizung von Hochöfen, Brennern in Kraftwerken und ähnlichen Einrichtungen wird im zunehmenden Maße auf die Verwendung von gemahlenem-festen Brennstoff, insbesondere Kohle als Brennstoff zurückgegriffen. Dies bietet den Vorteil, dass gegenüber dem herkömmlicherweise verwendeten Brennmaterial, wie Koks oder gar Öl, deutliche Einsparung bei den Betriebskosten ermöglicht sind. Um eine gleichmäßige Zufuhr des gemahlenen Brennstoffs in den Ofen zu ermöglichen, ist meist eine Vielzahl von Düsenlanzen rund um den Ofen angeordnet. Zu ihnen wird der gemahlene Brennstoff über Einzelleitungen ("Lanzenleitungen") zugeführt. Um den von einer Mahleinrichtung, wie einer Kohlemühle, oder einer zwischengeschalteten Fördereinrichtung zugeführten gemahlenen Brennstoff auf die einzelnen zu den Lanzen führenden Leitungen zu verteilen, ist ein Brennstoffverteiler vorgesehen. Dieser weist eine Kammer auf, der über einen Anschluss der gemahlene Brennstoff zugeführt wird. Von der Kammer führen eine Vielzahl von einzelnen Leitungen zu den jeweiligen Lanzen. Eine Schwierigkeit hierbei ist, dass es in der Praxis häufig zu ungleichmäßiger Verteilung des gemahlenen Brennstoffs auf die einzelnen Leitungen kommt, wodurch unterschiedliche Mengen den einzelnen Lanzen zugeführt werden. Dies führt zu unterschiedlicher Verbrennung und damit zu ungleichmäßiger Erwärmung an den einzelnen Brenndüsen, was unerwünscht ist.For the heating of blast furnaces, burners in power plants and similar facilities is increasingly resorting to the use of ground-solid fuel, in particular coal as fuel. This offers the advantage that over the conventionally used fuel, such as coke or even oil, significant savings in operating costs are possible. In order to enable a uniform feed of the ground fuel into the furnace, a plurality of nozzle lances is usually arranged around the furnace. The ground fuel is supplied to them via single pipes ("lance pipes"). In order to distribute the milled fuel supplied from a grinder, such as a coal mill, or an intermediate conveyor, to the individual lines leading to the lances, a fuel distributor is provided. This has a chamber, which is supplied via a connection of the ground fuel. From the chamber lead a variety of individual lines to the respective lances. A difficulty with this is that in practice there is often an uneven distribution of the ground fuel on the individual lines, whereby different amounts are supplied to the individual lances. This leads to different combustion and thus to uneven heating at the individual combustion nozzles, which is undesirable.
Um eine Vergleichmäßigung und Regelung der Zuführung an die einzelnen Lanzen zu erreichen, ist ein Kohleverteiler bekannt geworden, der individuelle Mengenregelungen an den einzelnen zu den Lanzen führenden Leitungen aufweist (
Bei einem anderen Ansatz ist ein Kohleverteiler vorgesehen, der ein Druckgefäß mit einer darunter angeordneten Kammer aufweist (
Die
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ausgehend von dem zuletzt genannten Stand der Technik einen Feststoffverteiler der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend zu verbessern, dass eine bessere Vergleichmäßigung bei geringem Aufwand erreicht wird.The invention is based on the object, starting from the last-mentioned prior art to improve a solids distribution of the type mentioned in that a better homogenization is achieved with little effort.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung liegt in den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.The solution according to the invention lies in the features of independent claim 1. Advantageous further developments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäß ist bei einem Feststoffverteiler für Einblasanlagen, insbesondere für Hochöfen, mit einer Kammer und mehreren wegführenden Lanzenleitungen, wobei die Kammer einen Zufuhranschluss für einen zu verteilenden Feststoff aufweist, vorgesehen, dass die Kammer eine von einer gemeinsamen Wandung umschlossene Sammelkammer ist, so dass die an ihr angeschlossenen Lanzenleitungen innerhalb der Sammelkammer miteinander verbunden sind, wobei geodätisch über der Sammelkammer ein Druckbehälter angeordnet ist, dessen unterer Teil als Bunker ausgebildet ist und einen mit dem Zufuhranschluss verbundenen Auslass aufweist, und weiter dessen oberer Teil als Gasraum ausgebildet ist.According to the invention is in a solid distribution for injection, especially for blast furnaces, with a chamber and a plurality of leading lance lines, wherein the chamber has a supply port for a solid to be distributed, provided that the chamber is surrounded by a common wall collecting chamber, so that the their connected lance lines are interconnected within the collection chamber, wherein geodetically above the collection chamber, a pressure vessel is arranged, the lower part is formed as a bunker and having an outlet connected to the supply port, and further the upper part is formed as a gas space.
Kern der Erfindung ist es, den Verteiler mit einer Sammelkammer zu versehen, die von einer gemeinsamen Wandung umschlossen ist, an welcher die Lanzenleitungen direkt angeschlossen sind. Die Erfindung hat erkannt, dass eine wesentliche Ursache für die unbefriedigende Qualität der Verteilung auf die Lanzenleitungen eine Entmischung des zugeführten Feststoffs von seinem Fördergas ist. Als Folge erreicht der Feststoff den Verteiler und die Lanzenleitungen nicht mehr in einer homogenen Verteilung, sodass sich ein ungleichmäßiger pulsierender Massenstrom ergibt. Diese Inhomogenitäten sind so groß und weisen eine solche Dynamik auf, dass sie durch die gemäß dem Stand der Technik an den einzelnen Lanzenleitungen verwendeten Einzelregelungen häufig nicht mehr kompensiert werden können; genauso wenig können Verteiler mit Individualkammern, an welche jeweils eine Lanzenleitung angeschlossen ist, für den erforderlichen Ausgleich sorgen.The essence of the invention is to provide the manifold with a collection chamber which is enclosed by a common wall, to which the lance lines are directly connected. The invention has recognized that a significant reason for the unsatisfactory quality of the distribution on the lance lines is a separation of the supplied solid from its delivery gas. As a result, the solid no longer reaches the manifold and lance lines in a homogeneous distribution, resulting in an uneven pulsating mass flow. These inhomogeneities are so large and have such a dynamic that they can often no longer be compensated by the individual regulations used according to the prior art on the individual lance lines; just as little can distributors with individual chambers, to each of which a lance line is connected, provide the necessary compensation.
Es ist der Verdienst der Erfindung, erkannt zu haben, dass den negativen Folgen der Entmischung nur wirksam mit einer verbesserten Roh-Verteilung im Verteiler selbst begegnet werden kann, und zwar durch Anschluss der Lanzenleitungen an die gemeinsame Wandung, und so die Einzellanzenregelungen zu entlasten bzw. sie im Idealfall überflüssig zu machen. Bevorzugt ist es, die Verbindungen zwischen den Anschlüssen für die Lanzenleitungen innerhalb der Sammelkammer als einen Ringspalt auszuführen. Der Ringspalt bedingt eine tangentiale Strömungsrichtung, welche besonders effizient ist für einen Ausgleich zwischen den radial gerichteten Stoffflüssen in die Lanzenleitungen. Dabei kann der Ringspalt auf einfache Weise geschaffen sein, beispielweise durch einen zentral in der Sammelkammer angeordneten Verdrängungskörper, dessen Außenseite von der umlaufenden gemeinsamen Wandung beabstandet ist und somit einen Ringspalt bildet. Vorzugsweise ist der Verdrängungskörper nach oben, also in Richtung des Druckgefäßes, verjüngend ausgeführt. Damit bildet sein Außenmantel eine Schrägfläche in Bezug auf den in die Sammelkammer eintretenden Feststoff und trägt somit selbst zur Verteilung auf die einzelnen Lanzenleitungen bei. Insbesondere kann mit einem solchen zentral angeordneten Verdrängungskörper der Bildung von Strähnen, bei denen sich im Material ein bevorzugter Strömungskanal in eine der Lanzenleitungen ausbildet, wirksam begegnet werden. Besonders zweckmäßig und mit geringem Aufwand herstellbar ist ein kegelförmiger Verdrängungskörper.It is the merit of the invention to have recognized that the negative consequences of demixing can be counteracted only effectively with an improved distribution of raw material in the distributor itself, namely by connecting the lance lines to the common wall, and so relieve the individual lancing regulations or to make them superfluous in the ideal case. It is preferable to make the connections between the lances line connections within the collection chamber as an annular gap. The annular gap causes a tangential flow direction, which is particularly efficient for a balance between the radially directed material flows in the lance lines. In this case, the annular gap can be created in a simple manner, for example by a centrally arranged in the collection chamber displacement body whose outer side is spaced from the circumferential common wall and thus forms an annular gap. Preferably, the displacement body is designed to be upwards, ie in the direction of the pressure vessel, tapered. Thus, its outer jacket forms an inclined surface with respect to the entering into the collection chamber solid and thus contributes even to the distribution on the individual lance lines. In particular, with such a centrally arranged displacement body, the formation of strands, in which a preferred flow channel is formed in the material in one of the lance lines, is effectively counteracted become. Particularly expedient and can be produced with little effort is a conical displacement body.
Die Erfindung ermöglicht somit einen Verzicht auf die beim Stand der Technik vorgesehene aufwendige Einzellanzenregelung. Darüber hinaus ermöglicht sie auch die Zuführung des Feststoffs über eine längere Zuführungsstrecke vor dem Verteiler. Es wird also zusätzlich noch eine größere Flexibilität bezüglich der Feststoffzuführung erreicht, sodass sich die Erfindung auch gut zur Nächrüstung oder Umrüstung bestehender Anlagen eignet.The invention thus makes it possible to dispense with the complex single-lance control provided in the prior art. In addition, it also allows the supply of the solid over a longer feed line in front of the distributor. In addition, a greater flexibility with respect to the solids supply is achieved, so that the invention is also well suited for upgrading or retrofitting existing plants.
Unter Feststoff wird vorliegend fein- oder grobkörniges Gut verstanden. Es handelt sich vorzugsweise um solche Materialien, die als Brennstoff dienen, wie insbesondere Kohle, zur Beschickung von Kraftwerksbrennern, Befeuerung von Hochöfen, Kalkschachöfen oder Glasschmelzöfen. Es muss sich aber nicht zwingend um Brennstoff handeln, sondern es kann auch zu verarbeitendes Material sein.By solid is meant herein fine or coarse-grained. They are preferably those materials which serve as fuel, such as, in particular, coal, for the charging of power plant burners, firing of blast furnaces, chalk chimneys or glass melting furnaces. However, it does not necessarily have to be fuel, but it can also be processed material.
Mit dem im Bunker des Druckgefäßes befindlichen Feststoff ergibt;sich eine Entkopplung der Lanzenbeschickung von der vorgeschalteten Zuförderung. Druckschwankungen, wie sie insbesondere durch Pulsationen in der Zufuhr zum Druckbehälter entstehen, können so die Sammelkammer nicht mehr oder nur noch stark gedämpft erreichen. Außerdem führen Schwankungen des Zustroms lediglich zu Veränderungen des Feststoff-Füllstands im Druckgefäß, und die in die Lanzenleitungen fließenden Abströme bleiben unverändert. Es wird so eine wesentliche Verbesserung in Bezug auf die gleichmäßige Verteilung des der Sammelkammer zugeführten Feststoffs in die einzelnen Lanzenleitungen erreicht.With the solid located in the bunker of the pressure vessel results in a decoupling of the lance feed from the upstream feed. Pressure fluctuations, as they arise in particular by pulsations in the supply to the pressure vessel, so the collection chamber can not reach or only greatly attenuated. In addition, fluctuations in the influx only lead to changes in the solids level in the pressure vessel, and the effluents flowing into the lance lines remain unchanged. It is thus achieved a significant improvement in terms of uniform distribution of the collecting chamber supplied solid in the individual lance lines.
Zweckmäßigerweise ist eine Regeleinrichtung vorgesehen, die auf den in dem Bunker befindlichen Feststoff wirkt. Indem die Zufuhr verändert wird, kann hier eine Vergleichmäßigung auch unter wechselnden Lastbedingungen erreicht werden. Besonders bevorzugt ist es, wenn die Regeleinrichtung eine Füllhöhenregelung für den Feststoff ist. Sie ist dazu ausgebildet, die Füllhöhe im Behälter möglichst konstant zu halten. Weiter kann sie dazu ausgebildet, im Betrieb die Einhaltung einer Mindestfüllhöhe zu gewährleisten. Zweckmäßigerweise erfolgt die Bestimmung der tatsächlichen Höhe über eine Gewichtsbestimmung des gesamten Behälters, der dazu auf Gewichtsmessdosen gelagert ist. Es kann aber auch die Höhe direkt gemessen werden, beispielsweise mittels kapazitiver oder Mikrowellen-Sensoren.Conveniently, a control device is provided which acts on the solid located in the bunker. By changing the supply, a homogenization can be achieved even under changing load conditions. It is particularly preferred if the control device is a filling height control for the solid. It is designed to keep the filling level in the container as constant as possible. Furthermore, it can be designed to ensure compliance with a minimum fill level during operation. The determination of the actual height is expediently carried out by determining the weight of the entire container, which is mounted on weight measuring cans for this purpose. However, the height can also be measured directly, for example by means of capacitive or microwave sensors.
Die Regeleinrichtung kann auch als Druckregelung ausgeführt sein. Sie dient dazu, den Gasdruck zu regeln, mit dem der zugeführte Feststoff beaufschlagt ist. Im einfachsten Fall ist dazu ein Drucksensor im Gasraum des Druckbehälters vorgesehen. Vorzugsweise wird aber der Druck an einer tieferen Stelle herangezogen, nämlich auf der Höhe des Anschluss der Lanzenleitungen an der gemeinsamen Wandung der Sammelkammer. Damit wird ein Abnehmen des Feststoffstroms durch die Lanzenleitungen bei abnehmendem Füllstand in dem Druckbehälter, wie es bei einer Druckregelung auf den Gasraum auftritt, vermieden. Vorzugsweise ist die Druckregelung über ein druckstoßfestes Filter mit dem Gasraum verbunden. Damit ist ein robuster Betrieb auch bei rauhen Bedingungen gewährleistet.The control device can also be designed as pressure control. It serves to regulate the gas pressure applied to the supplied solid. In the simplest case, a pressure sensor in the gas space of the pressure vessel is provided for this purpose. Preferably, however, the pressure is used at a lower point, namely at the height of the connection of the lance lines to the common wall of the collection chamber. Thus, a decrease in the solids flow through the lance lines with decreasing level in the pressure vessel, as it occurs in a pressure control on the gas space, avoided. Preferably, the pressure control is connected via a pressure surge-proof filter with the gas space. This ensures a robust operation even in harsh conditions.
Zweckmäßigerweise ist an dem Gasraum des Druckbehälters zusätzlich eine regelbare Stickstoffeinspeisung angeordnet. Mit ihr ist es ermöglicht, den Druck im Druckbehälter bzw. der daran angeschlossenen Sammelkammer des Verteilers besser zu stabilisieren, und gegebenenfalls feinfühlig je nach den durch die Betriebszustände sich ergebenden Anforderungen anzupassen. Insbesondere in Kombination mit der Druckregeleinrichtung kann so ein geschlossener Regelkreis gebildet werden, mit dem auch größere Schwankungen bei der Zuführung des Feststoffs, wie sie insbesondere über größere Strecken hinweg oder bei mehrflutiger Zufuhr auftreten können, ausgeregelt werden können.Appropriately, a controllable nitrogen feed is additionally arranged on the gas space of the pressure vessel. With her it is possible, the pressure in the pressure vessel or to better stabilize the collecting chamber of the distributor connected thereto, and if necessary to adapt it sensitively depending on the requirements resulting from the operating conditions. In particular, in combination with the pressure control device so a closed loop can be formed, with the greater fluctuations in the supply of the solid, as they can occur especially over longer distances or in mehrflutiger supply can be compensated.
Vorzugsweise ist der Druckbehälter unmittelbar auf der Sammelkammer angeordnet. Der sich im unteren, als Bunker ausgebildeten Teil des Druckbehälters ansammelnde Feststoff kann dann allein unter dem Einfluss der Schwerkraft ohne weiteres Hindernis direkt in die Sammelkammer des Verteilers gelangen. Damit wird eine sowohl zuverlässigere wie auch gleichmäßigere Zufuhr in die Sammelkammer erreicht. Zweckmäßigerweise ist der Bunker trichterförmig ausgebildet. Auch bei geringen in dem Druckbehälter befindlichen Feststoffmengen ist so eine sichere Zufuhr gewährleistet, wobei hingegen bei einer großen im Bunker befindlichen Mengen die Füllhöhe und damit der am Zufuhranschluss wirkende statische Druck nur unterproportional ansteigen. Damit wird eine weitere Vergleichmäßigung erzielt. Es soll aber nicht ausgeschlossen sein, dass der Druckbehälter über ein Fallrohr mit dem Zufuhranschluss der Sammelkammer verbunden ist, wobei das Fallrohr vertikal oder auch geneigt verlaufen kann. Wesentlich ist, dass sich der Druckbehälter geodätisch oberhalb der Sammelkammer befindet.Preferably, the pressure vessel is arranged directly on the collecting chamber. The solid which collects in the lower part of the pressure vessel formed as a bunker can then, directly under the influence of gravity, pass directly into the collecting chamber of the distributor without any further obstacle. Thus, a more reliable as well as more uniform supply is achieved in the collection chamber. Conveniently, the bunker is funnel-shaped. Even with small amounts of solids present in the pressure vessel, such a reliable supply is ensured, whereas with a large amount in the bunker, the filling level and thus the static pressure acting on the supply port only increase at a lower rate. Thus, a further homogenization is achieved. However, it should not be ruled out that the pressure vessel is connected via a downpipe with the supply port of the collection chamber, wherein the downpipe may extend vertically or inclined. It is essential that the pressure vessel is located geodetically above the collection chamber.
Zur weiteren Verbesserung der Gleichmäßigkeit kann vorgesehen sein, dass zusätzlich an den Lanzenleitungen jeweils eine eigene Einzelleitungsregeleinheit angeordnet ist. Damit kann ein besonders hoher Grad an Gleichmäßigkeit erreicht werden. Einzelleitungsregelungen für Lanzenleitungen sind an sich bekannt. Da dank der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung bereits eine hohe Grundgleichmäßigkeit zwischen den einzelnen Lanzenleitungen erreicht wird, sind die Voraussetzungen gegeben, mittels einer besonders feinfühlig agierenden Einzelleitungsregelung eine praktisch perfekte Vergleichmäßigung zu erreichen. Als eine weitere optionale oder alternative Möglichkeit zur weiteren Vergleichmäßigung können Gaszuführungen vorgesehen sein, die vorzugsweise am Boden der Sammelkammer münden. Sie bewirken eine zusätzliche Belüftung des Verteilers von unten, wodurch eine weitere Systementkoppelung erreicht wird.To further improve the uniformity can be provided that in addition to the lance lines each have their own individual line control unit is arranged. In order to a particularly high degree of uniformity can be achieved. Single line regulations for lance lines are known per se. Since a high basic uniformity between the individual lance lines is already achieved thanks to the arrangement according to the invention, the conditions are given to achieve a virtually perfect homogenization by means of a particularly sensitive acting single line control. As a further optional or alternative possibility for further homogenization gas supply can be provided, which preferably open at the bottom of the collection chamber. They cause an additional ventilation of the distributor from below, whereby a further system coupling is achieved.
Die Erfindung erstreckt sich weiter auf einen Verteilerkopf gemäß den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 19. Er eignet sich insbesondere zum Unterbau unter vorhandene Druckgefäße und damit zur einfachen Nachrüstung bereits vorhandener, konventioneller Feststoffverteilanlagen.The invention further extends to a distributor head according to the features of claim 19. It is particularly suitable for substructure under existing pressure vessels and thus for easy retrofitting already existing, conventional Feststoffverteilanlagen.

Die Erfindung wird erläutert am Beispiel einer Anlage, die gemahlene Kohle als Festbrennstoff einem Hochofen zuführt. Die in
Über eine Aufgabeöffnung 1 wird Kohle 9 von oben in eine Förderanlage 2 zugeführt. Die Förderanlage kann als eine an sich bekannte Zwillings-Druckgefäßanlage ausgeführt sein.
Die gemahlene Kohle gelangt in eine Zufuhrleitung 3, mittels der sie zu einem Kohleverteiler 6 an einem Hochofen 99 (nur für einen Strang dargestellt) zugeführt wird. Die Leitung 3 kann eine beträchtliche Strecke aufweisen, Entfernungen über mehrere hundert Meter bis hin zu einem Kilometer sind möglich.The milled coal enters a
Die Zufuhrleitung 3 mündet im oberen, als Gasraum 41 ausgebildeten Bereich eines Druckbehälters 4 des Kohleverteilers 6. Dessen unterer Bereich ist als Kohlebunker 42 ausgebildet. Aus dem Kohlebunker 42 gelangt die Kohle in einen unterhalb des Druckbehälters 4 angeordneten Verteilerkopf 7 des Kohleverteilers. Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist bei einem Strang der Druckbehälter 4 genau über dem Verteilerkopf 7 angeordnet, unbedingt nötig ist dieses aber nicht. Es genügt eine Anordnung geodätisch über dem Verteilerkopf 7, wobei die Verbindung auch über ein schräges Fallrohr 67 erfolgen kann, wie bei dem anderen Strang dargestellt. Der Verteilerkopf 7 verteilt die über den Druckbehälter 4 zugeführte Kohle auf eine Vielzahl von Lanzenleitungen 90, die zu Düsen 91 an dem Hochofen 99 führen.The
Es wird nun Bezug genommen auf
Am unteren Ende des Druckbehälters 4 ist eine Auslassöffnung 47 ausgebildet. Sie ist direkt auf einen entsprechenden Zufuhranschluss 77 des Verteilerkopfs 7 aufgesetzt. Es entsteht damit eine direkte und durchgehende Verbindung aus dem Kohlebunker 42 in eine gemeinsame Sammelkammer 72 des Verteilerkopfs 7. Die gemeinsame Sammelkammer 72 ist von einer einzigen umlaufenden zylindrischen Wandung 73 umgeben, in der eine Mehrzahl von Öffnungen 74 ausgebildet ist. Die Öffnungen 74 sind in gleichmäßigen Abständen etwa auf halber Höhe über den Umfang der Wandung 73 verteilt. Sie fungieren als Anschlüsse für Lanzenleitungen 90, und verbinden die Sammelkammer 72 mit den am Hochofen angeordneten Düsen 91. Nach oben und unten ist die Sammelkammer 72 durch eine Bodenplatte 75 und eine Deckplatte 76, in der der Zufuhranschluss 77 ausgebildet ist, druckfest verschlossen. Die Deckplatte 76 ist optional und kann entfallen, wenn der Querschnitt des Zufuhranschluss 77 des Verteilerkopfs 7 gleich dem Querschnitt der Auslassöffnung 47 des Kohlebunkers 42 ist.At the lower end of the
Eine solche Variante ist in
Man erkennt weiter in
Zur weiteren Unterstützung der Förderung und Homogenisierung der Kohle durch die Lanzenleitungen 90 sind zweckmäßigerweise Stickstoffzuführungen 78 am Boden 75 des Kohleverteilers 7 vorgesehen. Sie führen Stickstoffgas zu, das dazu dient, die Kohle in der Sammelkammer 72 aufzulockern und zu fluidisieren, um sie so gleichmäßiger durch die Lanzenleitungen 90 zu den Düsen 91 zu transportieren.To further promote the promotion and homogenization of coal through the
Weiter ist an den Lanzenleitungen 90 jeweils eine optionale Einzelleitungsregelungseinheit 8 angeordnet. Sie umfasst einen Mengensensor 80, der über eine Kompaktsteuereinheit 81 auf ein Stellventil 82 wirkt. Das Stellventil 82 regelt die Zufuhr von über eine Zuleitung 83 zugeführtem Stickstoff in die Einzelleitung 90. Die Einzelleitungsregelungseinheiten 8 der verschiedenen Lanzenleitungen 90 können autark betrieben oder von einem gemeinsamen Steuergerät (nicht dargestellt) synchronisiert werden. Sie sind dazu ausgebildet, durch eine regelbare Zufuhr von Stickstoff den Durchfluss von Kohle durch die Lanzenleitung 90 fein einzustellen.Furthermore, an optional individual
Die Funktionsweise der Anordnung ist wie folgt. Gemahlene Kohle wird über die Leitung 3 über den Anschluss 43 in den Druckbehälter 4 eingetragen. In den Druckbehälter 4 findet eine Entmischung statt, wobei die Kohle in den unteren als Kohlebunker 42 ausgebildeten Bereich fällt und sich dort ansammelt. Es hat sich bewährt, den Kohlebunker 42 so auszubilden, dass er eine Füllhöhe für die Kohle von mindestens einem Meter, vorteilhafterweise sogar mehr, erlaubt. Das für die Zuführung der Kohle über die Leitung 3 verwendete Stickstoffgas sammelt sich in dem Gasraum 41. Es kann aus diesem über die Druckregeleinrichtung 5 kontrolliert abgeführt werden. Dazu ist das Filter 51 vorzugsweise druckstoßfest ausgeführt, um Druckschläge bei der Zuführung der Kohle oder Verstellung des Regelventils 52 auszugleichen. Weiter kann optional über das Stellventil 56 zusätzlich Stickstoff in den Gasraum 41 zugeführt werden. Über die Steuereinrichtung 59 wird die Druckregeleinrichtung 5 so betrieben, dass der Druck und die Dichte im Druckbehälter 4 auch bei schwankendem Massenstrom der über die Zufuhrleitung 3 zugeführten Kohle weitgehend konstant gehalten werden, und zwar auf einem Wert, der ausreichend ist zum Weitertransport zum Hochofen 99. Damit wird erreicht, dass über alle in Betrieb befindlichen Lanzenleitungen 90 die gleiche Druckdifferenz wirkt. Genau genommen entspricht der zum Weitertransport erforderliche Druck nicht genau dem Druck im Gasraum 41, sondern dem um den statischen Druck der Kohle im Kohlebunker 42 und der Sammelkammer 72 erhöhten Druck in der gemeinsamen Sammelkammer 72 in Höhe der Öffnungen 74.The operation of the arrangement is as follows. Ground coal is introduced via the
Die Höhe der Kohle im Kohlebunker 42 wird von der Steuereinrichtung mittels der Gewichtssensoren 58' bestimmt. Die Regelung ist dazu ausgebildet, aus einer Gewichtszunahme oder,-abnahme den Füllstand und damit Unterschiede zwischen den zu- und abgeförderten Kohle-Massenströmen zu bestimmen. Angestrebt wird hierbei, den Füllstand möglichst konstant zu halten. Beim Abschalten oder Ausfall einzelner Lanzenleitungen 90 oder bei Schwankungen des über die Leitung 3 zugeführten Massenstroms kann es zu Änderungen der Füllhöhe in dem Druckbehälter 4 kommen. Danke der gesonderten Druckregelung bleibt die Druckdifferenz zu dem Hochofen 99 aber unverändert, so dass die Massenströme durch die Lanzenleitungen 90 konstant bleiben. Dank der so erreichten Konstanz bezüglich Druck und Dichte gelangt die Kohle aus dem Kohlebunker 41 gleichmäßig in die von einer gemeinsamen Wandung umschlossene Sammelkammer 72 des Verteilerkopfs 7, wobei mit der gemeinsamen Sammelkammer 72 eine gleichmäßige Verteilung der Kohle auf die Lanzenleitungen 90 erreicht wird.The height of the coal in the
Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Gleichmäßigkeit der Kohleverteilung in die Lanzenleitungen 90 können die Einzelleitungsregelungseinheiten 8 vorgesehen sein. Wie vorstehend beschrieben erfassen sie mittels des Mengensensors 80 die durch die Leitung geförderte Menge, und können zur Anpassung dieser Menge zusätzlichen Stickstoff über das Regelventil 83 führen. Im Ergebnis wird eine sehr gleichmäßige Zuführung von Kohle an die verschiedenen Düsen 91 erreicht.To further increase the uniformity of the coal distribution in the
