Definitions

  • the invention relates to a solid fuel combustion device having a heat exchanger for heat transfer to a fluid circuit.
  • Such fuel devices are used, for example, to operate the central heating of a residential house with solid fuel, such as wood.
  • the heat generated by the combustion device is supplied via the heat exchanger and the liquid circuit a liquid-filled heat storage, from which the consumers - for example, underfloor heating, hot water consumption points, etc. - get their heat energy.
  • the space of the pre-combustion chamber is greatly increased above the combustion grate on which forms the ember, and also serves as a fuel storage space, filled in the up to 1 m 3 solid fuel at once can be, for example, logs.
  • the burnup so the flue gas duct, usually takes place from the pre-combustion chamber through the combustion grate down into the afterburner, where the afterburning of the flue gases takes place, usually with the help of the secondary air supplied there or in the region of the combustion grate.
  • devices have been proposed which are intended to solve the deposits by automatic knocking or hitting or in the heat exchanger elements, or to prevent their setting.
  • the heat exchanger ribs over a small portion of their surface in physical contact with the liquid-carrying part of the heat exchanger (hereinafter referred to as liquid part), the amount of tar deposits is drastically reduced.
  • Tar deposits are due to a caused by rapid drop in temperature condensation of gaseous or vaporous combustion residues present in the flue gases, since the areas of the heat exchanger elements flowed through at the back of the liquid of the heat exchanger have a much lower temperature than the flue gases.
  • the heat exchanger fins are tubes whose interior is traversed by cool liquid
  • the entire outer surface of the tubes, which is flowed from the flue gases, due to the full-surface contact with the cool liquid is approximately at the temperature level of the liquid.
  • heat exchanger fins In the heat exchanger fins according to the invention, these are in physical contact with the liquid part of the heat exchanger only over a small cross-sectional area and only in this small part is the Temperature of the heat exchanger fin approximately that of the cooler liquid.
  • the remaining, much larger, part of the heat-conductive material, usually metal, existing heat exchanger fins is not in direct physical contact with the cool liquid part, but is flowed on both sides of the hot flue gases and therefore has a temperature level close to the temperature of the Flue gases on.
  • the heat exchanger fins are preferably made of folded sheet metal material, according to the invention are U-shaped, and are attached to the outside of their connecting intermediate leg on the particular flat outside of the liquid-flow part of the heat exchanger surface, in particular welded, e.g. MAG-welded, soldered or glued.
  • This cladding of heat-storing material faces on the opposite side, ie its rear side facing away from the heat exchanger, the main combustion chamber and / or the fuel storage space and / or the afterburner and extends in particular over all three areas and thus the entire height of the combustion device.
  • a further cover made of sheet steel may be present.
  • the heat-storing panel causes in times of low heat input by the flue gases on the heat exchanger fins that the heat exchanger fins are then kept by the heat-storing material then emitted radiant heat substantially at the high temperature.
  • the cross-sectional area of the heat exchanger fins considered in the direction of heat exchanger lining in the direction of heat exchanger fins and in particular their parts not in contact with the liquid part is to be as large as possible, which is why with heat-exchanger fins folded in a U-shape, these are preferably connected to the free end. shaped diverge legs are designed.
  • the heat exchanger ribs may also consist of simple plates which are attached with a narrow side of the liquid part, but then the contact surface to the liquid part is very low and the efficiency of the heat exchanger is reduced.
  • the V-shaped apart heat exchanger fins have the further advantage that - if it should form deposits inside the heat exchanger ribs - they can be very easily mechanically cleaned by a cleaning cover removed above the heat exchanger and using a brush, the heat exchanger fins from above be brushed down so that deposits fall down into the after-combustion chamber.
  • the liquid-flowed part of the heat exchanger can be a rectangular, flat box, which forms the outer wall of the heat exchanger, and from one side of the U-shaped, in each case parallel from bottom to top according to the flow direction of the flue gases extending - heat exchanger ribs are soldered or welded with their middle leg.
  • connection of these metallic parts of the heat exchanger to the arranged at a small distance from the free ends of the heat exchanger fins heat storing panel is neither necessary nor useful, because these two parts have very different expansion behavior and should not be mechanically interconnected.
  • the therefore necessarily existing distance between the free ends of the heat exchanger fins on the one hand and the heat-storing panel on the other hand should be kept as low as possible in order to keep as low as possible a passage of flue gases that have no contact with the heat exchanger fins and the distance losses of radiant heat of The heat-storing panel on the heat exchanger ribs also to minimize.
  • FIG. 1 a shows a vertical section of the schematic diagram of a generic combustion device 1 according to the prior art.
  • the burning takes place down through the grate 2, since the primary air inlet 27 above the burner grate 2, z. B. as shown in the side wall 11 a, b, and are passed through the combustion grate 2 down in the arranged below the afterburner 4 and from there into the lower open end of the heat exchanger 20, each in a side wall 11 a, b and / or the rear wall of the combustion device 1 is arranged and lies approximately at the level of the lower end of the afterburner 4.
  • the flue gases then flow in the side walls 11 a, b through the heat exchanger 20 upwards, and are passed at the upper outlet of the heat exchanger 20 in the housing 11 of the combustion device 1 to a central central flue gas discharge 5.
  • FIG. 1 are the grate bars 2a, b - which individually in the supervision of the FIG. 1 b are visible - formed as hollow tubes and give the flue gases through outlet openings 7a, b secondary gas 8, usually air, from the flue gases to improve the afterburning in the afterburner 4.
  • the metal grate bars 2a, b lie on the side of a side lining 13 of the Nachbrennraumes 4, which usually consists of heat-storing and heat-resistant material such as chamotte or silicon carbide, while the rest of the housing 11 of the burner is made of sheet steel.
  • FIG. 2 The solution of FIG. 2 is different from the one of FIG. 1 in that the supply of secondary gas 8 does not take place through the grate bars 2a, b, but instead 2 special nozzle tubes 6 are present in the afterburner 4 below the combustion grate, which have outlet openings 7a, b for secondary gas 8 at their side surfaces and - via the in FIG. 2b apparent distribution box 9 - be charged with secondary gas.
  • FIG. 3a shows a specific generic combustion device 1 in exploded view and in FIG. 3b in the supervision.
  • main and secondary combustion chamber 3, 4 made of refractory material is omitted in these illustrations. There are only the metal parts of the housing 11 drawn.
  • the ribs 22 of the heat exchanger 20 are arranged in the hollow side walls 11 a, b of the housing of the burner device 1.
  • the central flue gas outlet 5 can be seen in the rear area, to which the flue gases are directed after high currents in the lateral heat exchangers 20.
  • a heat exchanger can also be arranged in the rear wall 11d of the housing 11, which as a rule is not necessary since the side walls 11a, b are large enough.
  • the inventive feature of the heat exchanger 20 is best in the horizontal section of the FIG. 4 visible through the heat exchanger 20.
  • the liquid-flow through part 24 of the heat exchanger 20 can be seen, which is for example a welded steel sheet, cuboid, flat, almost plate-shaped box, which extends along the entire side surface of the burner may extend from the lower edge of the Nachbrennraumes to the upper edge of the fuel storage space 23.
  • the heat exchanger ribs 22 are usually made of sheet steel, possibly also made of copper or aluminum, and are usually folded sheet metal parts, so in the simplest case have over the entire cross-sectional extent constant wall thickness.
  • the wall thickness increases from the free end of the heat exchanger fin 22b, c towards the central leg 22a, in accordance with the heat flux increasing in this direction.
  • liquid part 24 Opposite the liquid part 24 is - parallel to and at a small distance 26 to the free ends of the heat exchanger ribs 22 - arranged a flat panel 25 of a heat-storing material such as fireclay or silicon carbide, so that the flow space 28 for the flue gases in the heat exchanger through this panel 25 on the one hand and the liquid part 24 on the other hand is limited and on the front and rear end faces, not shown, of course, by corresponding foreclosures, usually made of sheet metal.
  • a heat-storing material such as fireclay or silicon carbide
  • the absolute height of the temperature curve according to FIG. 6 depends on what height of the heat exchanger 20 - so according to the direction of progress of the flue gases through the heat exchanger 20 through - it is recorded, because the temperature T RG of the flue gases decreases increasingly in this process.
  • this minimum temperature difference ⁇ T min is generally not exceeded, but at most in the region of the middle leg 22a.
  • FIG. 3b shows, above the heat exchanger 20 in addition to the middle lid 11c each have a cleaning cover 30 which can be removed, so that then with a matching brush, the heat exchanger ribs 22 can be cleaned from above.
  • the loosening deposits fall down along the ribs 22 and then lie in the afterburner 4, where they can be disposed of together with the rest of the ash there.
  • This heat-storing panel 25 is heated on the one hand by the flue gases flowing along, on the other hand, but also by the heat acting from the opposite side, ie from the combustion chambers 3. 4, on the heat-storing panel 25 heat directly.
  • the heat-storing cladding 25 must have a sufficient volume, that is to say a sufficient thickness, as it generally extends over the entire side surface of the burner device 1, as does the liquid part 24.
  • the distance 26 between the free ends of the heat exchanger fins 22 and the panel 25 is chosen as small as possible, but no mechanical connection between these two parts is possible and not necessary.
  • FIG. 5 shows an exemplary design of a single heat exchanger rib 22, as it can be easily generated in a bending device of a simple sheet metal strip, which is bent centrally by means of a round rod contour.
  • the middle leg 22a of the heat exchanger fin is bent semicircular with convex curvature outwards and serves for fixing to the liquid part 24th
  • the wall thickness is about 3 mm with a radius of curvature of the middle leg 22a that is about four times as large.
  • a plurality of through holes 29 are arranged in the middle of the connecting leg 22a, which are e.g. can be used for spot welding to the liquid part 24, but this serves only as pre-fixing.
  • the rib 22 is welded along its entire length continuously relative to the liquid part 24 in order to achieve a good heat transfer.
