Eine solche Vorrichtung zur Energieerzeugung ist sowohl in der deutschen Gebrauchsmusteranmeldung
Eine Verbrennungseinrichtung im Sinne der Erfindung ist dabei ein System, in dem durch Zufuhr von Luft ein festes, flüssiges oder gasförmiges Medium als Brennstoff oxidiert wird und hierdurch Abgase in Form von gasförmigen Verbrennungsprodukten entstehen. Aufgrund der in dem Brennstoff gespeicherten chemischen Energie wird bei der Oxidation des Brennstoffs Wärme freigesetzt. Die bei der Verbrennung entstehenden gasförmigen Verbrennungsprodukte werden vorliegend als Rauchgas bezeichnet. Die Temperatur dieses Rauchgases kann bis zu 1000 °C betragen oder auch darüber liegen.A combustion device according to the invention is a system in which by the supply of air, a solid, liquid or gaseous medium is oxidized as fuel and thereby exhaust gases in the form of gaseous combustion products. Due to the chemical energy stored in the fuel, heat is released in the oxidation of the fuel. The resulting during combustion gaseous combustion products are referred to herein as flue gas.

Unter einer RC-Anlage (RC = Rankine Cycle) ist eine Anlage zu verstehen, in der mit einem thermodynamischen Kreisprozess unter Verwendung eines in einem Kreislauf geführten Arbeitsmittels, z. B. Wasser bzw. Wasserdampf, Wärme in mechanische oder elektrische Energie gewandelt wird.An RC system (RC = Rankine Cycle) is understood to mean a system in which a thermodynamic cycle using a circulating working medium, for. As water or water vapor, heat is converted into mechanical or electrical energy.
Eine ORC-Anlage (ORC = Organic Rankine Cycle) ist eine RC-Anlage, die mit einem thermodynamischen Kreisprozess aus Wärme mechanische oder elektrische Energie erzeugt. In einer ORC-Anlage gibt es hierzu einen Arbeitsmittelkreislauf, der einem Wasserdampfkreislauf ähnlich ist. Als Arbeitsmittel enthält der Arbeitsmittelkreislauf hier jedoch nicht Wasserdampf, sondern üblicherweise organische Medien, z. B. Butan, Toluol, Silikonöl oder auch Ammoniak, die eine in Bezug auf Wasser niedrige Verdampfungstemperatur haben. Das Arbeitsmittel in einer ORC-Anlage wird in der Regel über eine Pumpe mit Druck beaufschlagt. Das mit Druck beaufschlagte Arbeitsmittel wird dann in einem Verdampfer erwärmt. Dabei wird das Arbeitsmittel verdampft und gegebenenfalls überhitzt. Das verdampfte bzw. überhitzte Arbeitsmittel gelangt dann zu einer Dampfturbine. Hier wird das Arbeitsmittel unter Erzeugung von mechanischer Energie auf einen niedrigeren Druck entspannt und anschließend kondensiert. In dem Kreislauf wird das Arbeitsmittel dann wieder dem Verdampfer zugeführt, wo es von neuem erwärmt und wieder verdampft bzw. überhitzt wird. Es sei bemerkt, dass in einer ORC-Anlage als Arbeitsmittel auch Medien eingesetzt werden können, deren Verdampfungstemperatur höher ist als diejenige von Wasser. ORC-Anlagen können für das Erzeugen von elektrischer oder mechanischer Energie aus Wärme insbesondere dann vorteilhaft eingesetzt werden, wenn das zur Verfügung stehende Temperaturgefälle zwischen einer Wärmequelle und einer Wärmesenke zu niedrig ist, um eine Wärmekraftmaschine, etwa eine Turbine, mit Wasserdampf zu betreiben.An ORC system (ORC = Organic Rankine Cycle) is an RC system that uses a thermodynamic cycle of heat to generate mechanical or electrical energy. In an ORC system, there is a working fluid circuit that is similar to a steam cycle. As a working medium of the working fluid circuit here, however, does not contain water vapor, but usually organic media, eg. As butane, toluene, silicone oil or ammonia, which have a low evaporation temperature in relation to water. The working fluid in an ORC system is usually pressurized by a pump. The pressurized working fluid is then heated in an evaporator. The working fluid is evaporated and optionally overheated. The vaporized or superheated working fluid then passes to a steam turbine. Here, the working fluid is expanded to generate mechanical energy to a lower pressure and then condensed. In the cycle, the working fluid is then returned to the evaporator, where it is reheated and re-evaporated or overheated. It should be noted that in an ORC system as a working medium and media can be used, the evaporation temperature is higher than that of water. ORC systems can be advantageously used for generating electrical or mechanical energy from heat, especially when the available temperature gradient between a heat source and a heat sink is too low to operate a heat engine, such as a turbine, with water vapor.
ORC-Anlagen werden nicht nur mit Wärme aus Verbrennungseinrichtungen betrieben. Die für das Betreiben einer ORC-Anlage erforderliche Wärme kann auch geothermisch gewonnen werden oder aus Solarkraftwerken stammen. ORC-Anlagen können darüber hinaus auch mit der Abwärme von Verbrennungskraftmaschinen (z.B. Hubkolbenmotoren) betrieben werden.ORC plants are not only operated with heat from incinerators. The heat required for operating an ORC plant can also be obtained geothermally or come from solar power plants. In addition, ORC systems can also be operated with the waste heat of internal combustion engines (eg reciprocating engines).
In Vorrichtungen zum Erzeugen von Energie, die eine Verbrennungseinrichtung enthalten und in denen es eine ORC-Anlage gibt, wird die in der Verbrennungseinrichtung erzeugte Wärme herkömmlich unter Verwendung von Zwischenwärmeträgern von der Verbrennungseinrichtung auf die ORC-Anlage übertragen.In devices for generating energy, which contain a combustion device and in which there is an ORC system, the heat generated in the combustion device is conventionally transferred from the combustion device to the ORC system using intermediate heat carriers.
Hier besteht bisweilen das Problem, dass die Temperatur verwendeter Rauchgase so hoch ist, dass das in ORC-Anlagen eingesetzte Arbeitsmittel aufgrund von übermäßiger thermischer Belastung Schaden nehmen kann, wenn es mit den Rauchgasen in einen gemeinsamen Wärmetauscher gelangt.Here sometimes there is the problem that the temperature of the flue gases used is so high that the work equipment used in ORC systems can be damaged due to excessive thermal load when it comes with the flue gases in a common heat exchanger.
Zwischenwärmeträger in Form von Thermoöl für die Wärmeübertragung werden in industriellen Anlagen verbreitet eingesetzt. In geschlossenen Kreisläufen mit Wärmetauschern für die Wärmeübertragung werden sie sowohl für ein Beheizen als auch zum Kühlen verwendet. Die Viskosität, die Erstarrungs- und Siedepunkte sowie die Entflammbarkeit des betreffenden Thermoöls sind hier in der Regel an einen Temperaturbereich angepasst, in dem die Wärme übertragen werden soll.Intermediate heat carriers in the form of thermal oil for heat transfer are widely used in industrial plants. In closed circuits with heat exchangers for heat transfer they are used for both heating and cooling. The viscosity, the solidification and boiling points as well as the flammability of the relevant thermal oil are generally adapted here to a temperature range in which the heat is to be transferred.
Um eine RC-Anlage mit der Wärme aus einer Verbrennungseinrichtung zu betreiben, ist es bekannt, als Zwischenwärmeträger eingesetztes Thermoöl auf ca. 300 °C zu erwärmen. Damit die chemische Struktur des Thermoöls bei dieser Temperatur nicht zerstört wird, muss es jedoch in einem Leitungssystem fortlaufend durch Wärmetauscher gepumpt werden. Dies verursacht allerdings einen nicht unerheblichen Energieverbrauch und reduziert den Wirkungsgrad der Anlage.In order to operate an RC system with the heat from a combustion device, it is known to heat thermal oil used as an intermediate heat transfer medium to about 300 ° C. However, to ensure that the chemical structure of the thermal oil is not destroyed at this temperature, it must be continuously pumped through heat exchangers in a piping system. However, this causes a significant energy consumption and reduces the efficiency of the system.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Vorrichtung für das Erzeugen von elektrischer oder mechanischer Energie mit einer RC-Anlage bereitzustellen, die Wärme aus einer Verbrennungseinrichtung erhält und die zuverlässig mit hohem Wirkungsgrad betrieben werden kann.The object of the invention is to provide a device for generating electrical or mechanical energy with an RC system that receives heat from a combustion device and that can be reliably operated with high efficiency.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art gelöst, bei welcher der Wärmetauscher mit der Verbrennungseinrichtung über eine Rauchgasleitung verbunden ist, um die Wärme des bei der Verbrennung erzeugten Rauchgases auf das Arbeitsmittel der RC-Anlage zu übertragen.This object is achieved by a device of the type mentioned, in which the heat exchanger is connected to the combustion device via a flue gas line to transmit the heat of the flue gas generated during combustion to the working fluid of the RC system.
Damit ist es insbesondere möglich, die für das Umwälzen von Thermoöl erforderliche Energie zu reduzieren und ggf. auf einen gesonderten Zwischenkreislauf zu verzichten.This makes it possible, in particular, to reduce the energy required for the circulation of thermal oil and possibly to dispense with a separate intermediate circuit.
Indem der Wärmetauscher mit Rauchgas beaufschlagt wird, das wenigstens teilweise mit Rauchgas vermischt ist, das mit dem Wärmetauscher bereits abgekühlt wurde, kann ein übermäßiges thermisches Belasten von Wärmetauscher und Arbeitsmittel in der RC-Anlage vermieden werden.By supplying the heat exchanger with flue gas that is at least partially mixed with flue gas that has already been cooled by the heat exchanger, excessive thermal loading of the heat exchanger and working fluid in the RC system can be avoided.
Von Vorteil ist es, wenn das Temperaturniveau des durch den Wärmetauscher geführten Rauchgases abgesenkt wird und wenn ein Teil des somit abgekühlten Rauchgases über eine weitere Rauchgasleitung vor dem Wärmetauscher in die Rauchgasleitung zurückgeführt werden kann. Hierdurch lässt sich das bei der Verbrennung erzeugte Rauchgas mit bereits abgekühltem Rauchgas vermischen und im Wärmetauscher ein niedrigeres Temperaturniveau einstellen. Das Temperatumiveau im Wärmetauscher wird bevorzugt durch Änderung der Menge an rückgeführtem Abgas eingestellt. Erfindungsgemäß kann als Temperatur des abgekühlten Abgases eine Temperatur von 150 °C bis 300 °C gewählt werden.It is advantageous if the temperature level of the guided through the heat exchanger flue gas is lowered and if a part of the thus cooled flue gas can be returned via a further flue gas line in front of the heat exchanger in the flue gas line. As a result, the flue gas generated during combustion can be mixed with already cooled flue gas and set a lower temperature level in the heat exchanger. The temperature level in the heat exchanger is preferably adjusted by changing the amount of recirculated exhaust gas. According to the invention can be selected as the temperature of the cooled exhaust gas, a temperature of 150 ° C to 300 ° C.
Um elektrische oder mechanische Energie zu erzeugen, wird durch Verbrennen eines festen, gasförmigen oder flüssigen Mediums, insbesondere durch Verbrennen von Biomasse Rauchgas erzeugt, das Wärme enthält. Die Wärme des Rauchgases wird dabei einem als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher in einer RC-Anlage zugeführt. Erfindungsgemäß wird das erzeugte Rauchgas hierfür durch den Wärmetauscher geleitet.In order to generate electrical or mechanical energy, flue gas is generated by burning a solid, gaseous or liquid medium, in particular by burning biomass, which contains heat. The heat of the flue gas is fed to a heat exchanger acting as working medium evaporator in an RC system. According to the invention, the generated flue gas is passed through the heat exchanger for this purpose.
Das durch den Wärmetauscher geführte Rauchgas kann dabei mit einem Rauchgasgebläse angesaugt und durch die weitere Rauchgasleitung in die Rauchgasleitung eingespeist werden. Von Vorteil ist es insbesondere, wenn in der weiteren Rauchgasleitung ein Zirkulationsgebläse angeordnet ist, das durch den Wärmetauscher geführtes Rauchgas ansaugt und in die weitere Rauchgasleitung fördert.The guided through the heat exchanger flue gas can be sucked with a flue gas blower and fed through the other flue gas line in the flue gas line. It is particularly advantageous if a circulation blower is arranged in the further flue gas line, which sucks the flue gas passed through the heat exchanger and conveys it into the further flue gas line.
Die RC-Anlage enthält einen als Arbeitsmittelkondensator wirkenden Wärmetauscher, der mit einem Kühlwasserkreislauf verbunden ist, um über den Kühlwasserkreislauf die Kondensationswärme des Arbeitsmittels abzuführen. Der Kühlwasserkreislauf ist dabei auch durch einen weiteren Wärmetauscher geführt, der dem durch den Wärmetauscher geleiteten Rauchgas Wärme entzieht. Damit kann die Temperatur von abgekühltem Rauchgas, das durch die weitere Rausgasleitung in die Rauchgasleitung zurückgeführt wird, noch weiter abgekühlt werden.The RC system includes a working as a working fluid condenser heat exchanger, which is connected to a cooling water circuit to dissipate via the cooling water circuit, the heat of condensation of the working fluid. The cooling water circuit is also guided by a further heat exchanger which extracts heat from the flue gas passed through the heat exchanger. Thus, the temperature of cooled flue gas, which is returned by the further Rausgasleitung in the flue gas duct, can be cooled even further.
Die RC-Anlage kann insbesondere eine Speisepumpe enthalten, die das Arbeitsmittel von dem als Arbeitsmittelkondensator wirkenden Wärmetauscher zu dem Wärmetauscher bewegt. Mit der Speisepumpe kann das Arbeitsmittel durch einen in dem Kreislauf für das Arbeitsmittel vor dem Wärmetauscher angeordneten Rekuperator gefördert werden.In particular, the RC system may include a feed pump that moves the working fluid from the heat exchanger operating as a working fluid condenser to the heat exchanger. With the feed pump, the working fluid can be conveyed through a recuperator arranged in the circuit for the working fluid upstream of the heat exchanger.
Eine Idee der Erfindung ist insbesondere, die Temperatur des Rauchgasstromes vor dem als Verdampfer für Arbeitsmittel wirkenden Wärmetauscher durch Veränderung des Massestromes des abgekühlten Rauchgases mittels Drosselung durch eine Rauchgasklappe in der weiteren Rauchgasleitung einzustellen, die das Rauchgas wenigstens teilweise zu dem Wärmetauscher zurückführt. Eine Idee der Erfindung ist auch, die Temperatur des Rauchgasstromes vor dem Arbeitsmittel-Wärmetauscher durch Änderung der Drehzahl eines in der weiteren Rauchgasleitung angeordneten Gebläses einzustellen, über die das Rauchgas wenigstens teilweise zu dem Wärmetauscher zurückgeleitet wird.An idea of the invention is in particular to adjust the temperature of the flue gas stream upstream of acting as evaporator for working heat exchanger by changing the mass flow of the cooled flue gas by throttling by a flue gas flap in the further flue gas line, which at least partially returns the flue gas to the heat exchanger. An idea of the invention is also the temperature of the flue gas stream before the working medium heat exchanger by changing the speed of a fan arranged in the further flue gas line over which the flue gas is at least partially returned to the heat exchanger.
In der Vorrichtung für das Erzeugen von elektrischer oder mechanischer Energie ist eine Bypassleitung vorgesehen, über die durch den Wärmetauscher geführtes Rauchgas in die weitere Rauchgasleitung eingespeist werden kann oder über die es möglich ist, Rauchgas aus der weiteren Rauchgasleitung zu dem weiteren Wärmetauscher zu führen. Die Vorrichtung kann eine in der Rauchgasleitung angeordnete Rauchgasklappe enthalten, mit der sich das Strömen von Rauchgas von dem Wärmetauscher zu dem weiteren Wärmetauscher oder in die Bypassleitung unterbinden lässt. Auch in der Rauchgasleitung zwischen der Verbrennungseinrichtung und dem Wärmetauscher kann eine Rauchgasklappe vorgesehen sein. Um die Strömung von Rauchgas in der Rauchgasleitung damit zu steuern, ist es günstig, eine Leitung mit einer Klappe für das Zuführen Frischluft in den Wärmetauscher vorzusehen. Auf diese Weise lässt sich gewährleisten, dass der Wärmetauscher auch Frischluft gekühlt werden kann. Die Vorrichtung wird vorteilhafterweise mit einem Kamin für das Freisetzen von abgekühltem Rauchgas ausgebildet.In the apparatus for generating electrical or mechanical energy, a bypass line is provided, can be fed via the guided through the heat exchanger flue gas in the further flue gas line or via which it is possible to lead flue gas from the further flue gas duct to the other heat exchanger. The device may include a arranged in the flue gas line flue gas flap, with which the flow of flue gas can be prevented from the heat exchanger to the other heat exchanger or in the bypass line. Also in the flue gas line between the combustion device and the heat exchanger, a flue gas flap may be provided. In order to control the flow of flue gas in the flue gas duct with it, it is convenient to provide a conduit with a flap for supplying fresh air into the heat exchanger. In this way it can be ensured that the heat exchanger and fresh air can be cooled. The device is advantageously formed with a chimney for releasing cooled flue gas.

Bei Verbrennen von Biomasse erzeugt die Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 Rauchgas, das Wärme enthält. In der Vorrichtung 10 gibt es eine ORC-Anlage 2. Die ORC-Anlage 2 weist einen Kreislauf 5 für ein fluides Arbeitsmittel auf, das für das Aufnehmen von Wärme durch einen als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 geführt ist. Bevorzugt werden als Arbeitsmittel Butan, Toluol oder Silikonöl verwendet.When burning biomass, the combustion device 1 generates flue gas containing heat. In the
Der Wärmetauscher 21 ist mit der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 über eine Rauchgasleitung 33, 34 verbunden, um die Wärme des bei der Verbrennung erzeugten Rauchgases auf das Arbeitsmittel der ORC-Anlage 2 zu übertragen.The
Die ORC-Anlage 2 enthält eine Turbine 27 mit daran angekoppeltem Generator 25. Die ORC-Anlage 2 hat einen Rekuperator 23 sowie einen Arbeitsmittelkondensator 24. In der OCR-Anlage 2 gibt es eine als Arbeitsmittelpumpe wirkende Speisepumpe 22. Mit der Speisepumpe 22 wird das fluide Arbeitsmittel im flüssigen Aggregatszustand auf Betriebsdruck gebracht. Das flüssige Arbeitsmittel durchströmt den Wärmetauscher 21. Hier wird die Wärme aus dem Rauchgas der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 auf das Arbeitsmittel übertragen. Dabei verdampft das Arbeitsmittel. Am Ausgang des Wärmetauschers 21 wird dann Sattdampf bzw. Trockendampf bereitgestellt. Durch den Energieeintrag in dem Wärmetauscher 21 nehmen dabei das spezifische Volumen und die Temperatur des Dampfes zu. In der Turbine 27 wird das mit Druck beaufschlagte dampfförmige Arbeitsmittel nahezu isentrop auf einen geringeren Druck entspannt. Aufgrund der Expansion in der Turbine 27 steigt das spezifische Volumen des Arbeitsmittels hierdurch. Die von dem Druckabfall an der Turbine 27 hervorgerufene Volumenvergrößerung des Arbeitsmittels hat eine Volumenänderungsarbeit zur Folge, die in der Turbine 27 mittels der Schaufeln in mechanische Energie gewandelt wird. An die Turbine 27 ist ein Generator 25 angeschlossen. Mit dem Generator 25 wird elektrische Energie in ein Stromnetz 28 eingespeist.The
In dem Rekuperator 23 wird dem dampfförmigen Arbeitsmittelstrom, der die Turbine 27 verlässt, Wärme entzogen. Hierfür wird mit der Speisepumpe 22 mit Druck beaufschlagtes flüssiges Arbeitsmittel durch den Rekuperator geleitet. In dem Rekuperator 23 sinkt dann die Temperatur des dampfförmigen Arbeitsmittels aus der Turbine 27 auf Kondensationstemperatur. Im Anschluss an den Rekuperator 23 wird das Arbeitsmittel in dem Kreislauf 5 durch einen nachgeschalteten, als Arbeitsmittelkondensator wirkenden Wärmetauscher 24 bewegt.In the
Der als Arbeitsmittelkondensator wirkende Wärmetauscher 24 ist an einen Kühlwasserkreislauf 4 angeschlossen. Der Kühlwasserkreislauf 4 enthält eine Speisepumpe 42. In dem Kühlwasserkreislauf 4 gibt es einen Wärmetauscher 41, durch den das Rauchgas aus der Leitung 34 geführt wird. Über den Kühlwasserkreislauf 4 wird die bei der Kondensation in den Wärmetauscher 24 abgegebene Wärme in ein nicht weiter dargestelltes Wärmenetz gespeist.The acting as working fluid
In dem als Arbeitsmittelkondensator wirkenden Wärmetauscher 24 wird das Arbeitsmittel kondensiert. Dabei geht es vollständig in den flüssigen Aggregatzustand über. Mit der als Arbeitsmittelpumpe wirkenden Speisepumpe 22 wird das kondensierte Arbeitsmittel dann erneut auf Betriebsdruck gebracht. In den Kreislauf 5 wird es dann wieder zu dem als Verdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 geführt. Der Kreislauf für das Arbeitsmittel in der ORC-Anlage 2 ist damit geschlossen.In the acting as a working fluid
Die Wärmeleistung der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 wird durch Änderung von Brennstoff- und Luftzufuhr variiert. Die Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 kann so entsprechend dem Strom bedarf des mit dem Generator 25 versorgten Stromnetzes oder dem Wärmebedarf des mit dem Kühlwasserkreislauf 4 gespeisten Wärmenetzes gesteuert bzw. geregelt werden.The heat output of the combustion device 1 is varied by changing the fuel and air supply. The combustion device 1 can be controlled or regulated according to the power required by the
In der Vorrichtung 10 ist eine weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 ausgebildet. Die weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 ist in Bezug auf die Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 vor dem als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer 21 wirkenden Wärmetauscher der ORC-Anlage und hinter dem Wärmetauscher 41 an die Rauchsgasleitung 34 angeschlossen. Über die weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 ist es möglich, das durch den Wärmetauscher 21 geführte Rauchgas wenigstens teilweise in die Rauchgasleitung 34 zurückzuführen. Dies dient dazu, das bei der Verbrennung in der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 erzeugte Rauchgas mit Rauchgas zu vermischen, das bereits durch den Wärmetauscher 21 geleitet wurde. Dieses Rauchgas ist deshalb gegenüber dem Temperaturniveau des aus der Verbrennungseinrichtung austretenden Abgases abgekühlt. Durch Rückführung von abgekühltem Rauchgas kann die Temperatur des Rauchgases abgesenkt werden, das in der Rauchgasleitung 34 zu dem Wärmetauscher 21 bewegt wird. In einem modifizierten Ausführungsbeispiel wird alternativ oder zusätzlich zu abgekühltem Rauchgas Umgebungsluft mit einer Temperatur von weniger als 50 °C vor dem Wärmetauscher 21 in die Rauchgasleitung 34 eingeführt.In the
In der Vorrichtung 10 gibt es eine Leitung 9 mit einer steuerbaren Klappe 63, durch die in die Rauchgasleitung 34 zwischen dem als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 und dem Wärmetauscher 41 Frischluft zugeführt werden kann. Austrittsseitig des Wärmetauschers 41 befindet sich in der Rauchgasleitung 34 ein Rauchgasgebläse 32. Mittels des Rauchgasgebläses 32 wird das Rauchgas in der Rauchgasleitung 34 zu einem Kamin 31 gefördert. Durch den Kamin 31 wird das in der Vorrichtung 10 erzeugte Rauchgas ggf. an weitere Abgasreinigungssysteme und anschließend in die Umwelt entlassen.In the
Typische Temperaturen des von der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 bereitgestellten Rauchgases in der Rauchgasleitung 33 liegen in einem Bereich von 900 °C bis 1000 °C. Nach einer Zumischung von abgekühltem Rauchgas, das vor dem Kamin 31 eine Temperatur von ca. 160 °C bis 180 °C haben kann, lässt sich eine Eintrittstemperatur für das Rauchgas 34 in den als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 erreichen, die erfindungsgemäß 300 °C bis 600 °C betragen kann, die insbesondere in einem Bereich von 550 °C liegt. Damit lässt sich gewährleisten, dass das Arbeitsmittel in der ORC-Anlage 2 auf eine günstige Arbeitstemperatur gebracht werden kann und der als Verdampfer wirkende Wärmetauscher 21 ebenso wie das Arbeitsmittel thermisch nicht übermäßig belastet wird.Typical temperatures of the flue gas provided by the combustor 1 in the
In der Vorrichtung 10 wird das durch den Wärmetauscher 21 geführte Rauchgas mit einem Rauchgasgebläse 32 angesaugt und mit einer den Pfeilen 51 entsprechenden Strömungsrichtung zu dem Kamin 31 gefördert. Hierdurch entsteht an dem Wärmetauscher 21 ein Druckabfall. Der Druck des Rauchgases an der Austrittsseite des Rauchgasgebläses 32 ist größer als an der Eintrittsseite des Wärmetauschers 21. Dieser Umstand bewirkt, dass über die weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 mit einer den Pfeilen 53 entsprechenden Strömungsrichtung Rauchgas strömt, das in den Wärmetauschern 21, 41 bereits abgekühlt wurde. Dieses Rauchgas wird durch die die weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 in die Rauchgasleitung 34 vor dem Wärmetauscher 21 wieder eingespeist.In the
In der Vorrichtung 10 gibt es eine Bypassleitung 7, welche die Rauchgasleitung 34 mit der Raugasleitung 35 verbindet. Über die Bypassleitung 7 kann durch den Wärmetauscher geführtes Rauchgas in die weitere Rauchgasleitung 35 eingespeist oder über die Rauchgas aus der weiteren Rauchgasleitung 35 zu dem weiteren Wärmetauscher 41 geführt werden. In der Bypassleitung 7 ist eine einstellbare Rauchgasklappe 62 angeordnet. Durch Öffnen und Schließen der Rauchgasklappe 63 kann die Bypassleitung 7 freigegeben und gesperrt werden.In the
Hinter dem Wärmetauscher 21 und nach der Anschlussstelle für die Leitung enthält die Rauchgasleitung 34 eine Rauchgasklappe 61. Mit der Rauchgasklappe 61 kann das Strömen von Rauchgas aus der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 durch die Rauchgasleitung 34 von dem Wärmetauscher 21 zu dem weiteren Wärmetauscher 41 oder in die Bypassleitung 7 eingestellt und ggf. auch unterbunden werden. In der weiteren Rauchgasleitung 34 befindet sich zwischen der Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 und dem Wärmetauscher 21 eine weitere Rauchgasklappe 64. Mit der Rauchgasklappe 64 kann die Rauchgasströmung durch die Rauchgasleitung 35 eingestellt werden.Behind the
In der Vorrichtungen 10 ist es möglich, die Temperatur des Rauchgasstromes 34 vor Eintritt in den Wärmetauscher 21 zu regeln bzw. einzustellen, indem der Massestromes des kalten Rauchgases in der weiteren Rauchgasleitung 35 durch Variieren der Öffnungsstellung, d. h. durch Drosselung der Rauchgasklappe 64 verringert oder vergrößert wird. Für die Temperatur des Rauchgasstromes in der Rauchgasleitung 34 kann so vor dem Wärmetauscher 21 ein prozessoptimaler Wert eingestellt werden.In the
Um in einem Störungsfall oder bei Inbetriebnahme oder Herunterfahren der Anlage den Rauchgasstrom 34 durch den ORC-Wärmetauscher 21 zu unterbrechen, wird in der Vorrichtungen 10, 20 und 30 jeweils die Rauchgasklappe 61 geschlossen. Indem die Bypassleitung 7 durch Öffnung der Rauchgasklappe 62 freigegeben wird, bewirkt das Rauchgasgebläse 32 dann eine den Pfeilen 52 entsprechende Rausgasströmung zu dem Kamin 31. Wenn zusätzlich auch noch die Klappe 63 in der Leitung 9 für das Zuführung von Frischluft geöffnet wird, kann dabei der als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkende Wärmetauscher 21 in einer in Bezug auf den normalen Betrieb strömendes kaltes Rauchgas oder mit Umgebungsluft gekühlt werden. Es sei bemerkt, dass die Klappen 61, 62, 63, 64 in einer Armatur auch funktionell zusammengefasst werden können.In order to interrupt the
Die in der
In der Vorrichtung 20 ist es möglich, eine Temperatur des Rauchgasstromes 34 vor dem als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 der ORC-Anlage 2 einzustellen bzw. zu regeln, indem der Massestrom des kalten Rauchgases in der weiteren Rauchgasleitung 35 durch Variieren der Drehzahl des Zirkulationsgebläses 36 und durch Einstellen der in der Rauchgasleitung 34 vor dem Wärmetauscher 31 angeordneten Rauchgasklappe 61' verändert wird. Auch damit lässt sich eine prozessoptimale Eintrittstemperatur für das Rauchgas in der Rauchgasleitung 34 bei Eintritt in den Wärmetauscher 21 erreichen.In the
Die in der
Es sei bemerkt, dass bei den anhand der
Der Wärmetauscher 41 des Wasserkreislaufes 4 der Vorrichtungen 10, 20 und 30 wird sowohl im Betriebs- als auch im Störungsfall immer von Rauchgas durchströmt. In einer modifizierten Ausführungsform kann allerdings vorgesehen sein, auch den Wärmetauscher 41 im Störungsfall über einen Bypass zu umgehen und die heißen Rauchgase dann direkt in nachgeschaltete Abgasreinigungssysteme und nachfolgend durch den Kamin 21 zu leiten.The

Hierzu wird mit einer Verbrennungseinrichtung 1 für ein festes, gasförmiges oder flüssiges Medium, insbesondere Biomasse, Rauchgas generiert, das Wärme enthält. Diese Wärme wird durch einen als Arbeitsmittelverdampfer wirkenden Wärmetauscher 21 einer RC-Anlage 2 zugeführt, die einen Kreislauf 5 für ein Arbeitsmittel enthält. Erfindungsgemäß wird die Wärme des bei der Verbrennung generierten Rauchgases auf das Arbeitsmittel der RC-Anlage 2 übertragen, indem das Rauchgas durch den Wärmetauscher 21 geleitet wird.In summary, the following preferred features in particular should be noted: The invention relates to the conversion of thermal energy into electrical or mechanical energy with all features of the independent claims.
