Definitions
- the invention relates to a burner according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the DE 20 23 060 shows a burner for gaseous fuels with a perforated porous outlet plate which is adjacent to a combustion zone on one side and to a base plate on the other.
- the base plate is connected to the outlet plate in such a way that the perforations in the outlet plate are congruent to the perforations in the base plate. So air can flow through them.
- the exit points have such a distance from the base plate between the holes that fuel passageways are formed.
- the burner as a whole is designed so that during use of the burner gaseous fuel through the fuel passages and from there through the porous Outlet plate flows into the combustion zone, where it burns with the sucked through the perforations air.
- the EP 1 001 216 A1 shows a disc, with openings passing through the disc. Channels are arranged transversely to the openings through which fuel is passed. Through these channels fuel can be supplied to the openings.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a burner which avoids the above disadvantage.
- burner modules in interconnectable groups allows a high flexibility, both in terms of the design of the combustion system, as well as the operation of a gas turbine. Furthermore, the heat can be released distributed in the entire combustion chamber by the selected arrangement, whereby a suppression of combustion vibrations is possible.
- the fuel supply of the different groups of burner modules can also be switched on depending on the load.
- the fuel injection can also be assigned a fuel quantity that varies within the control range. Thus, improved control of the amount of lead and thus improved NOx levels can be obtained.
- the burner modules of a group can be designed differently. Thus, the amount of fuel at different parts of the combustion chamber can be controlled in groups in addition to the interconnection, thus providing additional operational flexibility.
- the burner has an axial direction and a radial direction.
- the groups are arranged in the axial direction and / or radial direction on the combustion chamber wall of the burner.
- the arrangement of the groups is decisive for the burner geometry or if a particular burner geometry is given, the design of the groups can be adapted to them.
- the groups can be arranged radially and axially staggered.
- the next outer group of burner modules, viewed in the axial direction, is located downstream of the next inner group of burner modules.
- the axial staggering allows a uniform distribution of the combustion zones within the combustion chamber.
- the group with the same axial staggering is combined to a stage that has a common fuel control.
- the axial stages are switched on, the innermost (relative to the burner axis) being switched on first and the outermost one last.
- a number of three axial stages are considered ideal.
- the amount of fuel can be introduced particularly well load-dependent, which in turn has a favorable effect on the formation of NOx.
- the passageway is substantially round in cross section.
- a plurality of passage channels are present, which have at least one distance from each other. It is beneficial for flame stability reasons to more closely select the distance to cross-sectional area factor for the groups of burner modules farther from the turbine, and to narrow the distance-to-cross-sectional area factor for the groups of burner modules closer to the turbine. Thus, extinguishing the flame and hot spots can be avoided.
- Fig. 1 shows a burner module 1.
- the burner module 1 in this case has a plate 90 with a top 92 and a bottom 91.
- the burner module 1 has a through-passage 100 for guiding air 102.
- the air 102 may also be an air-fuel mixture.
- the passageway 100 extends from the bottom 91 to the top 92 through the plate 90 therethrough.
- the air flowing through the passageway 100 air 102 forms an air flow direction L, wherein in the air flow direction L downstream of a Combustion chamber 52 ( Fig. 3 ) is provided.
- the burner module 1 comprises a fuel injection for introducing fuel.
- the fuel injection thereby comprises at least one distributor channel 5 and a channel 101, which transports fuel from the distributor channel 5 to the through-channel 100.
- the fuel can be transported by means not described in more detail channels to the distribution channel 5.
- Fig. 2 shows two passageways 100 which are supplied by a common distribution channel 5 via two channels 101 with fuel.
- a group 7 of burner modules 1 a number of at least one, but usually more burner modules 7 is referred to.
- a group 7 encloses several passageways 100, as in FIG Fig. 2
- a fuel injection may also include a plurality of such channels 101 that provide fuel to multiple passageways 100.
- the fuel can - as in FIGS. 2 and 1 shown are arranged perpendicular to the passageway 100 channels 101 directly perpendicular to the air flow direction L and thus to the air 102 introduced.
- a group 7 can consist of a different number of burner modules 1, that is, have different number of through-channels 100 and different numbers of distribution channels 5 and different numbers of channels 101.
- Air 102 is flowed through the passageway 100.
- the passageway 100 can be realized as a cylindrical through-hole with a diameter D and a cross-sectional area.
- the diameter D is in this case preferably 1-12 mm.
- the turbulence of the airflow 102 may be increased by turbulence generators. These may be, for example, delta vans, or mixing elements, etc. (not shown).
- an inlet flow device which is arranged, for example, in the air flow direction L in front of the burner module 1 is arranged (not shown), the air 102 are twisted. This gives a better one Mixing of air 102 with fuel and thus a better combustion without hot spots.
- the channels 101 of the fuel injection fuel in the passageway 100 can be arranged at a distance KL from the exit surface of the air-fuel stream 103 his.
- the ratio of distance KL to D preferably 0.1-8 is given.
- these may have a distance S from each other, calculated from the respective center of the cross-sectional area of the through-channel 100. It is preferable to specify the ratio of S to D with 1.5 to 10. This ensures flame stability and avoids hot spots.
- the burner with a combustion chamber wall 110 comprises a plurality of groups 7, which consist of burner modules 1.
- the groups 7 are interconnectable with respect to the fuel quantity.
- the burner modules 1 within a group 7 ( Fig. 3 ) or in different groups 7 can be designed differently, eg different in size.
- the groups 7 may be attached directly to the combustion chamber wall 110 of the burner or at least partially replace it.
- the groups 7 can be operated with premixed or partially premixed or not premixed burner modules 1. In a burner also different such groups 7 (premixed, partially premixed, not premixed) may occur.

- the diameter DS of this end face 105 is 0.05 to 1 of the maximum radial diameter DSmax of the combustion chamber.
- a pilot burner 115 is provided, with which the gas turbine can be started.
- the pilot burner 115 can also be replaced by a pilot from burner modules 1 or the pilot function is performed by the furthest downstream group 7 of burner modules 1; downstream means here in the axial direction A after the pilot burner 115.
- the pilot burner 115 is used primarily when starting the machine to set the combustion targeted in motion and to prevent extinction of flames.
- the combustion chamber 52 of the embodiment 3 is partially conical.
- the groups 7 of the burner modules are arranged on the conical surface 120 of the combustion chamber 52.
- the opening angle ⁇ of the conical surface 120 is preferably 10 degrees. This results in a good inflow angle of the air-fuel mixture 103 in the combustion chamber 52 downstream of the groups 7.
- the number of this group 7 of burner modules 1 on the conical surface 120 is arbitrary.
- the groups 7 of burner modules 1 may have a different size and may be of different fuel levels be fed. This allows a very flexible operation of the machine.
- Fig. 4 shows a combustion chamber 52 in which the groups 7 is aligned so that the outflow direction of the air-fuel mixture 103 is parallel to the axial direction A of the burner.
- the groups 7 are arranged in the radial direction R of a burner rotation axis M and staggered in the axial direction A.

- Fig. 3 can also be provided a pilot burner 115.
- the pilot burner 115 can also be replaced by a group 7 of suitable burner modules 1, or the pilot function is performed by the group 7 of burner modules 1 lying furthest in the axial direction of the burner.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Brenner gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a burner according to the preamble of claim 1.
Um möglichst geringe Stickoxidemissionen bei steigenden Verbrennungstemperaturen zu erzielen, sind moderne Gasturbinenverbrennungssysteme durch ein kompaktes Design gekennzeichnet. Damit die geforderten thermischen Leistungen erreicht werden, sind in der Regel eine größere Anzahl an Brennern, in denen der Brennstoff zugemischt und der Brennstoff mit der Luft vorgemischt wird, parallel geschaltet. Durch Verringerung der Verweilzeit in kompakten Anordnungen können die Stickoxidemissionen weiter verringert werden. Eine weitere Verringerung der Verweilzeit über den gegenwärtigen Stand der Technik, der bei stationären Gasturbinenverbrennungssystemen ca. 15 ms beträgt, kann durch Einführung sogenannter Mikroflammen oder Brennermodulen erzielt werden. Aufgrund der dadurch bedingten hohen Leistungsdichten neigen diese Verbrennungssysteme jedoch zu thermoakustisch induzierten Verbrennungsschwingungen, die den Betriebsbereich der Gasturbine einschränken. Eine Vermeidung dieses Nachteils wäre daher wünschenswert.In order to achieve the lowest possible nitrogen oxide emissions with increasing combustion temperatures, modern gas turbine combustion systems are characterized by a compact design. In order for the required thermal performances to be achieved, a larger number of burners, in which the fuel is admixed and the fuel is premixed with the air, are usually connected in parallel. By reducing the residence time in compact arrangements, nitrogen oxide emissions can be further reduced. A further reduction in dwell time over the current state of the art, which is about 15 ms in stationary gas turbine combustion systems, can be achieved by introducing so-called micro-flames or burner modules. Due to the resulting high power densities, however, these combustion systems tend to thermoacoustically induced combustion oscillations, which limit the operating range of the gas turbine. Avoiding this disadvantage would therefore be desirable.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Angabe eines Brenners, welcher den obigen Nachteil vermeidet.The object of the present invention is to provide a burner which avoids the above disadvantage.
Die Aufgabe wird durch die Angabe eines Brenners mit einer Brennkammerwand, umfassend mehrere Brennermodule nach Anspruch 1 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.The object is achieved by specifying a burner with a combustion chamber wall, comprising a plurality of burner modules according to claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments will be apparent from the dependent claims.
Die Verwendung derartiger vieler Brennermodule in verschaltbaren Gruppen ermöglicht eine hohe Flexibilität, sowohl hinsichtlich der Auslegung des Verbrennungssystems, als auch beim Betrieb einer Gasturbine. Weiterhin kann durch die gewählte Anordnung die Wärme in der gesamten Brennkammer verteilt freigesetzt werden, womit eine Unterdrückung von Verbrennungsschwingungen möglich ist. Die Brennstoffversorgung der unterschiedlichen Gruppen von Brennermodulen kann zudem lastabhängig zugeschaltet werden. Der Brennstoffeindüsung kann zudem eine Brennstoffmenge zugewiesen werden, die im Regelbereich variiert. So kann eine verbesserte Kontrolle der Eindüsemenge und somit verbesserte NOx-Werte erhalten werden. Die Brennermodule einer Gruppe können unterschiedlich ausgelegt sein. Somit kann die Brennstoffmenge an unterschiedlichen Teilen der Brennkammer zusätzlich zu der Verschaltung in Gruppen gesteuert werden und bietet somit zusätzliche Betriebsflexibilität.The use of such many burner modules in interconnectable groups allows a high flexibility, both in terms of the design of the combustion system, as well as the operation of a gas turbine. Furthermore, the heat can be released distributed in the entire combustion chamber by the selected arrangement, whereby a suppression of combustion vibrations is possible. The fuel supply of the different groups of burner modules can also be switched on depending on the load. The fuel injection can also be assigned a fuel quantity that varies within the control range. Thus, improved control of the amount of lead and thus improved NOx levels can be obtained. The burner modules of a group can be designed differently. Thus, the amount of fuel at different parts of the combustion chamber can be controlled in groups in addition to the interconnection, thus providing additional operational flexibility.
Der Brenner weist eine axiale Richtung und eine radiale Richtung auf. Die Gruppen sind in axialer Richtung und/oder radialer Richtung an der Brennkammerwand des Brenners angeordnet. Die Anordnung der Gruppen ist bestimmend für die Brennergeometrie oder falls eine bestimmte Brennergeometrie vorgegeben ist, kann das Design der Gruppen an diese angepasst werden. Die Gruppen können dabei radial angeordnet und axial gestaffelt sein. Die jeweils nächste äußere Gruppe von Brennermodulen liegt in axialer Richtung gesehen stromabwärts der nächsten inneren Gruppe von Brennermodulen. Die axiale Staffelung erlaubt eine gleichmäßige Verteilung der Verbrennungszonen innerhalb der Brennkammer. Die Gruppe mit gleicher axialer Staffelung wird zu einer Stufe zusammengefasst, die eine gemeinsame Brennstoffregelung besitzt. Abhängig von der Last werden die axialen Stufen zugeschaltet, wobei die innerste (bezogen auf die Brennerachse) zuerst und die äußerste zuletzt zugeschaltet wird. Eine Anzahl von drei axialen Stufen wird als ideal angesehen. Somit kann die Brennstoffmenge besonders gut lastabhängig eingebracht werden, was sich wiederum günstig auf die NOx-Entstehung auswirkt.The burner has an axial direction and a radial direction. The groups are arranged in the axial direction and / or radial direction on the combustion chamber wall of the burner. The arrangement of the groups is decisive for the burner geometry or if a particular burner geometry is given, the design of the groups can be adapted to them. The groups can be arranged radially and axially staggered. The next outer group of burner modules, viewed in the axial direction, is located downstream of the next inner group of burner modules. The axial staggering allows a uniform distribution of the combustion zones within the combustion chamber. The group with the same axial staggering is combined to a stage that has a common fuel control. Depending on the load, the axial stages are switched on, the innermost (relative to the burner axis) being switched on first and the outermost one last. A number of three axial stages are considered ideal. Thus, the amount of fuel can be introduced particularly well load-dependent, which in turn has a favorable effect on the formation of NOx.
Bevorzugt ist der Durchgangskanal im Wesentlichen im Querschnitt rund. Bevorzugt sind mehrere Durchgangskanäle vorhanden, welche zumindest einen Abstand zueinander aufweisen. Es ist aus Flammenstabilitätsgründen günstig, den Faktor Abstand zu Querschnittsfläche bei den von der Turbine weiter entfernten Gruppen von Brennermodulen, größer zu wählen und den Faktor Abstand zu Querschnittsfläche bei den näher zur Turbine befindlichen Gruppen von Brennermodulen, enger zu wählen. Somit kann ein Verlöschen der Flamme und Hot Spots vermieden werden.Preferably, the passageway is substantially round in cross section. Preferably, a plurality of passage channels are present, which have at least one distance from each other. It is beneficial for flame stability reasons to more closely select the distance to cross-sectional area factor for the groups of burner modules farther from the turbine, and to narrow the distance-to-cross-sectional area factor for the groups of burner modules closer to the turbine. Thus, extinguishing the flame and hot spots can be avoided.

Luft 102 wird durch den Durchgangskanal 100 hindurchgeströmt. Der Durchgangskanal 100 kann dabei als zylindrische Durchgangsbohrung mit einem Durchmesser D und einer Querschnittsfläche realisiert sein. Der Durchmesser D beträgt hierbei bevorzugt 1-12 mm. Die Turbulenz der Luftströmung 102 kann durch Turbulenzgeneratoren erhöht werden. Dies können beispielsweise Deltawings, oder Mischelemente etc. sein (nicht gezeigt). Darüber hinaus kann durch eine Einlaufströmungsvorrichtung, die beispielsweise in Luftströmungsrichtung L gesehen vor dem Brennermodul 1 angeordnet wird (nicht gezeigt), die Luft 102 verdrallt werden. Dies ergibt eine bessere Durchmischung von Luft 102 mit Brennstoff und somit eine bessere Verbrennung ohne Hot Spots. Durch die Kanäle 101 der Brennstoffeindüsung wird Brennstoff in dem Durchgangskanal 100, und damit in die Luft 102 eingedüst und vermischt sich mit diesem zu einem Luft-Brennstoffstrom 103. Die Kanäle 101 können dabei in einem Abstand KL von der Austrittsfläche des Luft-Brennstoffstroms 103 angeordnet sein. Dabei wird das Verhältnis von Abstand KL zu D, bevorzugt mit 0.1-8 angegeben. Bei einem Brennermodul 1 mit mehreren Durchgangskanälen 100 können diese einen Abstand S voneinander aufweisen, gerechnet vom jeweiligen Mittelpunkt der Querschnittsfläche des Durchgangskanals 100 an. Dabei ist bevorzugt das Verhältnis von S zu D mit 1.5 bis 10 anzugeben. Somit werden Flammenstabilität gewährleistet und Hot Spots vermieden.
