Definitions

  • the invention relates to a domestic heating system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the EP 997 965 A1 discloses a burner optimized for reducing particulate matter for a heater operated with a solid fuel, for example pellets or similar isolated parts of a solid fuel.
  • a supply of supply air takes place only via an air supply device, the air supply is distributed by means of a convection fan around the fireplace around.
  • An oxygen sensor controls the air supply and sets a preferred optimum air / fuel ratio by adjusting the fuel supply and the air supply.
  • a method for operating a combustion system for combusting fuels in which a primary and a secondary air supply device are regulated as a function of the content of carbon monoxide, which is continuously measured by means of a carbon monoxide sensor, and depending on the temperature.
  • the secondary supply of supply air and the fuel supply are regulated depending on the content of carbon monoxide in the exhaust gas and the combustion temperature.
  • the use of a carbon monoxide sensor is expensive and requires a lot of maintenance.
  • the method does not provide a separate control in non-stationary operation of the furnace, so that especially in a start phase, no separate regulation takes place, which prevents emissions of pollutants, especially not completely oxidized pollutants in this start phase.
  • combustion plants for crushed solid fuels such as pellets, wood chips and the like are available on the market, although via an afterburning by means of a have secondary supply means and a sensor for determining the residual oxygen content in the exhaust gas, but have no or no separate control for the starting phase.
  • the object is achieved by a domestic combustion plant for the continuous combustion of solid, comminuted fuels during different phases of operation, namely an ignition phase during which the fuel is ignited, a start-up phase in which the combustion process is stabilized and an operating phase with a stationary combustion operation, with a metering device for Dosing of the fuel in a combustion chamber, a primary Zu Kunststoff adopted for dosing the supply air necessary for the combustion process, a secondary Zu Kunststofferie founded for afterburning of incompletely oxidized combustion products, a temperature sensor for detecting the combustion temperature and an oxygen sensor for detecting the residual oxygen present in the exhaust and an ignition device for Ignition of the fuel solved, wherein during the stationary phase of operation, the metering device depends on a controlled by the supply of fuel Heat requirement and the primary air intake device is controlled depending on the dosage of the solid fuel and the secondary air supply depending on the residual oxygen and operated during the ignition phase, the primary air supply constant and the secondary air intake device depending on the combustion temperature and depending on Residual oxygen content is regulated.
  • the primary air supply device can be regulated exclusively as a function of the residual oxygen content.
  • the control of the air supply device can additionally take place as a function of the combustion temperature, since at lower heat outputs it can be assumed that the combustion temperature can be correspondingly lower and therefore a control may be necessary which takes into account both the residual oxygen content and the combustion temperature.
  • Suitable fuels are all solid, comminuted fuels, for example organic fuels such as wood pellets, woodchips, generally prepared, portioned biomass and the like.
  • the metering device of the domestic heating system can be formed from a screw conveyor, a conveyor belt or the like.
  • the primary and secondary Zu Kunststoff can be formed, for example, each of a fan whose speed is set by a corresponding control and in this way the amount of metered supply air is specified.
  • the separate metering of the primary and / or secondary supply air flow via a suction draft fan and separately controllable Zu Kunststoffschieber or the like.
  • the primary supply air preferably takes place from below through a grate for the ignited fuel.
  • the secondary supply air is preferably introduced into the afterburning zone, for example by means of one or more nozzles, so that there is optimum mixing with the exhaust gas stream and can be preheated in order to reduce the reduction in the combustion temperature.
  • a separation between the combustion chamber and a post-combustion chamber to avoid harmful convection may be provided.
  • the temperature sensor may be formed by a thermocouple, a thermometer, a pyroelement or the like and preferably detects the combustion temperature at a characteristic point in the combustion chamber in the combustion chamber, preferably in the vicinity of the maximum temperature.
  • an oxygen sensor an optical or electrochemical sensor can be used. This sensor is preferably provided at the outlet of the exhaust gas, for example, prior to introduction into a chimney.
  • the ignition device may be a hot air blower which ignites the fuel on the grate by gas temperatures above the flash point.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the domestic heating system provides to operate the primary air supply device for igniting the fuel when the secondary air supply device is switched off with a constant supply air. In this way, the fuel can be ignited quickly and safely without cooling the hot air of the fan heater with a correspondingly limited supply.
  • the secondary air supply device After ignition of the fuel, the secondary air supply device advantageously remains shut down until the residual oxygen falls below a predetermined value, for example 18% by volume. In this case, the secondary air supply device remain shut down until in addition the combustion temperature exceeds a predetermined value, for example 400 ° C to 450 ° C. If the predetermined value of the combustion temperature is exceeded for the first time, a regulation of the secondary supply air flow takes place when the value falls below the predetermined value for the residual oxygen content, depending on the combustion temperature and the content of residual oxygen. In this case, different combustion control functions, for example, with different control character can be specified for combustion temperatures above the predetermined value and firing temperatures equal to or below the predetermined value.
  • controllers such as a P, PI, PID controller can be used or the control parameters are weighted differently among each other.
  • the predetermined values for switching the control can be varied on the basis of the combustion temperature and the content of residual oxygen.
  • Such a scheme seeks to minimize the combustion temperature reduction by supply air through the secondary supply means to avoid the formation of said pollutants due to low temperature, even when already started combustion as far as possible. In this way, the ignition process is started quickly and immediately switched to an effective post-combustion by supplying air through the secondary feeder, as soon as pollutant formation due to the formation conditions, for example the formation of carbon monoxide according to the Boudouard equilibrium is no longer negligible.
  • the ignition phase When the ignition phase is completed, it switches to the start-up phase.
  • the secondary supply air is restricted to a minimum value, at least at the beginning of the start-up phase, according to an advantageous embodiment of the domestic heating system.
  • the primary supply air after stable ignition of the fuel is controlled depending on a dosage of the fuel, which can be made to start the combustion process with increasing rate of fuel, with a minimum supply of secondary supply air, to a base load of supply air for afterburning be kept available from any resulting pollutants. Since the conditions of the combustion and the reaction products vary greatly in the start-up phase, in particular after restarting with already combusted fuel, the regulation of the secondary supply air must always be based on the combustion temperature and on the residual oxygen content in the exhaust gas.
  • the duration of the ignition phase and the start-up phase can be limited in time.
  • empirically obtained information of a combustion process can be used as switching times from the ignition phase into the starting phase or from the starting phase into the operating phase with stationary combustion operation.
  • the switching points between the individual phases can be determined from a currently present combustion situation, for example based on the obtained sensor data for residual oxygen and / or the combustion temperature and operating data of the supply devices and / or the metering devices.
  • the duration of the ignition phase and / or the starting phase can be predetermined depending on a downtime of the domestic heating system. In this way, for example, a residual heat in the combustion chamber or the temperature of the combustible material can be met. For example, a longer duration of the ignition and / or start-up phase can be provided when restarting the domestic combustion system with exclusively unburned fuel.
  • the primary air supply device is regulated as a function of the set fuel volume flow via the metering device.
  • substantially Constant temperature can be dispensed with a temperature influence of the control of the secondary supply device and only one of the residual oxygen dependent control can be made, which indirectly also takes into account different fuel qualities (eg porosity).
  • the externally required heat demand of the domestic heating system such as full load or partial load operation can be performed by the uniform guidance of fuel supply and supply of air via the primary supply means.
  • the secondary supply means may be corrected depending on the change of the combustion temperature.
  • the control process or the supply of secondary or primary supply air can be stopped by the metering device is turned off and the falling below a predetermined value of the combustion temperature is detected.
  • the control of the proposed domestic heating system can be parameterized at the factory or by the customer.
  • at least one of parameters for representing a dependency of the primary and / or secondary air supply device on the combustion temperature, the residual oxygen and / or the fuel supply depending on a downtime of the domestic heating system can be specified.
