Definitions
- the present invention relates to radiant burners comprising a radiant plate and a screen.
- Radiant burners comprising a radiant plate and a screen are known e.g. from US4799879 or EP0539279.
- the screen together with the radiant burner plate provides the radiative output of the burner, which amounts up to about 50% efficiency.
- the radiative output of the burners has been increased by modification of the radiant burner plate as described in e.g. US 4,569,657 or US4,799,879. This or similar modifications of the radiant burner plate increased the temperature level and consequently also the radiative output of the burner.
- Another way to increase the radiative output of the burners was proposed by using two layers of screens as e.g. in US 3,847,536. Here the radiant screens are kept in place by metal means. These metal connections cause thermal bridges and thermal losses, causing thermal stresses and thereby early emitter failure.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a new radiant burner which combines the advantage of using two layers of radiant screens with limiting the lateral heat losses through the thermal bridges, thereby providing a radiant burner wherein the thermal energy is concentrated on the inside of the combustion chamber which results in a greater amount of energy radiated at the front of the radiant burner.
- An aspect of the claimed invention provides a radiant burner which comprises at least one radiant burner plate and at least two layers of radiant screens enclosed by a peripheral band associated with a body defining a premixing chamber for said burner.
- the peripheral band comprises an upper flange.
- the radiant burner further comprises an insulation lying under and extending downwardly from said upper flange of said peripheral band.
- the insulation has an internal peripheral structure permitting limited movement of the layers of screens.
- the insulation is a multilayer structure wherein each layer engages and supports at least one screenlayer.
- This provides an insulation which enables the different screenlayers to expand freely in the radiant burner and at the same time provides the fact that the insulation is a multipiece, multilayered structure, and preferably that each layer is insulating one screenlayer, that the different levels can expand freely with respect to one another as the different levels are subjected to different expansions due to their distance to the radiant burner surface of the radiant burner plate.
- a further advantage of this multilayer insulation is an easier assembly of the radiant burner, a simplified production. Moreover, if one layer of the insulation is broken, other insulation layers will keep the broken part in place and the radiant burner can stay in operation.
- the insulation is made of ceramic, e.g. cordierite or zirconia; partially stabilised zirconia (PSZ), alumina, silicon carbides or other high level technical ceramics.
- the ceramic insulation layer is obtained by extruding ceramic material, it is preferable to mold them when aiming at more complex ceramic insulation layers.
- the insulation has an equal thickness in the complete depth of the radiant burner.
- the insulation is thicker at the level of the radiant burner plate(s) and obliquely narrows down to smaller thickness.
- the insulation narrows gradually from the radiant burner plate(s) upto the upper flange of the peripheral band.
- the insulation is also enclosing the radiant burner plate(s).
- the surfaces of the insulation layers wich are in contact with the other layers of the insulation (which will be called further on “contacting surfaces") are very smooth. Allowing a tension free movement of the contacting surfaces with respect to one another.
- each insulating layer comprises one smooth contacting surface and one profiled contacting surface. This provides as further advantage that the contact surface of these contacting surfaces is lowered to the surface of these profiles. Whereas the smooth and flat surface of the neighbouring insulation layer still provides a tension free movement of the contacting surfaces with respect to one another.
- the profiles on one of the contacting surfaces of the insulation layer are ribs. More preferably, these profiles ribs are parallel to the peripheral band, in an alternative preferable embodiment, these ribs are in zig-zag or sinuous form and parallel to the peripheral band.
- the radiant screens are produced from highly heat resistant materials such as ceramics, especially aluminium or zirconium oxide, aluminium titanate, silicon oxide, corundum or mullite, silicon carbide, silicon nitride or metal infiltrated ceramics, such as silicon-infiltrated silicon carbide.
- the radiant screens can also be fabricated from heat-resistant materials of other nature such as e.g. materials which contain more than 50% by weight of a metal suicide, such as molybdenum disilicide (MoSi2) or tungsten disilicide (WSJ2).
- the radiant screens are fabricated from highly heat resistant steel grades, such as high level stainless steel grades like Kanthal APM or APMT, different grades of FeCrAI alloy designed for high temperature corrosion, Chrome/Nickel steel grades like Avesta 253 MA, 153 MA, lnconel 601 , lncoloy 800HT, lncoloy MA956.
- high level stainless steel grades like Kanthal APM or APMT
- different grades of FeCrAI alloy designed for high temperature corrosion Chrome/Nickel steel grades like Avesta 253 MA, 153 MA, lnconel 601 , lncoloy 800HT, lncoloy MA956.
- At least one of the screenlayers is a metal grid, preferably woven.
- at least one of the screenlayers is made of an arrangement of parallel spaced round rods or square bars.
- the different screenlayers are arranged in the same direction and parallel with respect to one another.
- the different screenlayers are arranged in shifted angles, but parallel, with respect to one another. More preferably, the first and second radiant screens are at a 90° angle.
- the radiant burner plate is preferably made of a ceramic material with high temperature resistance, and excellent mechanical and thermodynamic properties such as e.g. cordierite or zirconia; partially stabilised zirconia (PSZ), alumina, silicon carbides or other high level technical ceramics.
- a ceramic material with high temperature resistance and excellent mechanical and thermodynamic properties

- the peripheral band comprises an upper flange 5.
- the radiant burner further comprises an insulation 7 lying under and extending downwardly from said upper flange 5 of said peripheral band 4.
- the insulation 7 has an internal peripheral structure permitting limited movement of the layers of screens 3.
- the insulation 7 is a multilayer structure wherein each layer engages and supports at least one screenlayer.
- This provides an insulation 7 which enables the different screenlayers 3 to expand freely in the radiant burner and at the same time provides the fact that the insulation is a multipiece, multilayered structure, and preferably that each layer is insulating one screenlayer, that the different levels can expand freely with respect to one another as the different levels are subjected to different expansions due to their distance to the radiant burner surface of the radiant burner plate.
- the insulation has an equal thickness over the complete depth of the combustion chamber. The depth of both insulation layers are equal although the distribution of the internal peripheral structure permitting movement of the screenlayers varies, in this example the upper screenlayer, being a metal mesh, is placed in the middle of the upper insulation layer, whereas the lower screenlayer, being round rods, is placed in the upper part of the insulation layer.

- the insulation has an obliquely increasing thickness starting under said upper flange and extending downwardly to said radiant burner plate(s).
