Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for litter feed in furnaces according to the preamble of claim 1 and a furnace for carrying out the method according to the preamble of claim. 5
  • the invention can be used in furnaces with blower throw litter.
  • the solid, small-particle fuel is introduced into the furnace with the aid of the centrifugal wheel arranged in the throw feeder. By changing the speed of the blast wheel the throw distance can be adjusted.
  • Corresponding plants are approximately from the DE 4217070 A1 where coal is applied to a horizontal grid by means of litter feeding.
  • the throw feeder is mounted approximately vertically above the end of the grate in the end wall of the furnace.
  • the arrangement of the throwing feeder over the end of the grate has the disadvantage that fresh fuel also impinges on the grate near the end of the grate and can no longer burn completely before being discharged. As a result, the maximum permissible residual carbon content of the ash may not be complied with.
  • the GB 574,829 A shows a furnace in which a blast wheel is arranged in a lowered part of the firebox ceiling.
  • a charging device for furnaces which has a centrifugal wheel with a vertical axis of rotation.
  • the charging device is arranged outside the area of the firebox ceiling.
  • the object of the present invention is to make the known solution more compact and to improve burnout. This object is achieved by the features of claims 1 and 5, respectively.
  • the throw feeder is additionally arranged higher, at the same speed of the blower wheel, a greater throwing range can be achieved, or the speed of the thrower wheel can be reduced while the throwing distance remains the same.
  • the impeller is arranged horizontally, so the axis of rotation of the impeller is vertical.
  • the fuel is introduced from above in the region of the hub of the blast wheel in the housing of the throwing feeder and then with the help of the blades of the blast wheel horizontally outwards and - promoted through openings of the throw feeder - in the furnace.
  • the axis of rotation of the blast wheel can also be tilted against the vertical.
  • the invention provides that the upper part of the end wall of the firebox is offset by a lowered part of the firebox ceiling inwards into the firebox and the fuel is introduced at the upper end of the upper end wall.
  • the firebox cover closes off the firebox at the top and has an opening for the flue gas to be exhausted.
  • the burn-out zone is between 15 and 40%, in particular between 20 and 40%, of the length of the grate.
  • the method according to the invention can be used in particular for a feed grate. Unlike a traveling grate, where the grate itself moves in the conveying direction, e.g. the bars of rust in place and are only moved back and forth.
  • a combustion plant according to the invention is specified in claim 5.
  • This comprises at least one furnace, a grate arranged therein and a throw feeder with which fuel can be applied against the conveying direction of the grate on the grate.
  • the firing plant is characterized in that the fuel can be introduced by means of the litter feeder directly under the firebox ceiling, in the conveying direction of the rust seen before the end of the grate, so that when operating the litter feeder at the grate between the litter feeder and the end of the grate a burn-out zone is formed can not be charged with fresh fuel.
  • the burn-out zone is between 15 and 40%, in particular between 20 and 40%, the length of the grate.
  • the upper part of the end wall of the firebox is offset inwardly into the firebox by a lowered part of the firebox ceiling.
  • an opening for introducing the fuel is provided at the upper end of the upper end wall.
  • the figure shows schematically the combustion chamber 1 of a furnace in which a horizontal grate 2 is arranged, which promotes from left to right.
  • This feed grate consists of individual elements with bars aligned in the conveying direction (in this example, the bars have a length of 500mm), with only every second element moved back and forth.
  • the fuel 3 is fed from above a throw feeders 4 and conveyed by means of this in the combustion chamber 1.
  • the throw feeder 4 has a horizontally arranged impeller, so the axis of rotation of the impeller is vertical.
  • the fuel 3 is introduced from above in the region of the hub of the centrifugal wheel in the throw feeder 4 and then with the help of the blades of the centrifugal wheel horizontally outward and - promoted through openings of the throw feeder - in the furnace.
  • the axis of rotation of the blast wheel can also be tilted against the vertical.
  • the throw feeder 4 itself is arranged outside of the combustion chamber 1, the openings of the throwing feeder 4 open into an opening 6 of the combustion chamber 1, in such a way that the fuel can be deployed as close as possible below the furnace ceiling 5.
  • the falling curves of the fuel delivered into the combustion chamber are represented by curves 7.
  • the firebox ceiling 5 is lowered from the burn-up end of the firebox 1 to the opening 6 for the fuel, so that over this lowered part 5a of the firebox ceiling 5 the throw feeder 4 has room.
  • the opening 6 of the firebox is.
  • the lower end wall 13 of the combustion chamber 1 remains unchanged.
  • the end wall 8, 13 of the combustion chamber 1 are arranged vertically in this example.
  • the end wall 8, 13 could also be arranged obliquely in whole or in part, wherein the vertical component should predominate. As soon as the horizontal component predominates, ie the wall is inclined more than 45 ° to the vertical, this wall must already be assigned to the firebox ceiling 5.
  • the firebox cover 5 closes the combustion chamber 1 at the top and has an opening for the withdrawal of the flue gas 9.
  • a substantial part of the firebox ceiling is arranged horizontally in this example, this part here covers about half the length of the grate 5.
  • the firebox ceiling can also have any other shape, which depends on the particular application, in particular depends on the fuel. In other applications, for example, the opening for the withdrawal of the flue gas 9 may be larger or smaller.
  • the burn-out zone 10 Due to the fact that the opening 6 for the fuel from the throw feeder 4 is displaced into the furnace opposite to the conveying direction of the grate 5, the burn-out zone 10, into which no fresh fuel 7 can pass directly from the throw feeder 4, is formed on the grate 5.
  • the burn-out zone 10 therefore extends at least from vertically below the opening 6, that is, the upper end wall 8, to the discharge-side end of the grate 5. In this embodiment, the burn-out zone is about one-sixth the length of the grate.
  • the fresh fuel 7 from the throw feeder 4 can only impinge in the remaining area 11 of the grate 5.
  • the combustion therefore begins in this region 11 and continues in the burn-out zone 10, until finally the ash 12 remaining at the end of the grate 5 is conveyed out of the combustion chamber 1 without afterburning.
  • a traveling grate can also be used a traveling grate.
  • the rust does not have to be horizontal, but it can also be arranged slightly inclined, inclined by about 7 ° to the horizontal.
  • the grate can also be designed in stages.
