Definitions

  • the invention relates to a solid fuel-fired burner with a fuel supply by means of conveying air, with a burner muffle and with at least one combustion air supply.
  • Such solids-fired burners are used, for example, in a hot gas generator in process plants.
  • a hot gas generator in process plants.
  • Examples include grinding plants for grinding coal, cement clinker, granulated blastfurnace, raw meal or other moist, especially mineral, to be shredded materials.
  • lignite or hard coal fired hot gas generators are used.
  • Generic burners can also be used in other firing systems such as for waste heat boiler for steam generation.
  • solid fuels can be, for example, rock or lignite dust, biomass dust or mixtures thereof.
  • a generic burner is for example from the DE 197 06 077 A1 known.
  • solid which is crushed and called fuel dust is pneumatically conveyed into a combustion chamber and burned by supplying combustion air.
  • the burner On the output side, the burner is a burner muffle, a supply for the gas to be heated and a mixing part is provided, which is then arranged on the burner muffle.
  • Another burner is out of the DE 102 32 373 A1 known, which is a further development of the burner DE 197 25 613 A1 for firing with solids represents. This type of burner is also referred to by the manufacturer as a pulse burner.
  • pulverized coal is transported with a gaseous carrier medium, which may preferably be air, and blown into a reaction space by means of an injection lance.
  • the injection lance leads from the burner head to the point of the largest diameter of the conical reaction space and has a deflection hood at the outlet end.
  • the combustion air is supplied via a radial blade grid at the head end of the reaction space.
  • the blade grid and part of the reaction space are surrounded by an air collecting housing in which the combustion air is to be calmed and from which the combustion air is to reach the reaction space via the blade grid. Due to its flow pattern, the burner generates a large range of turbulent fluctuation movements. As a result, the burner dust after its exit from the deflection hood to the air guide vane, which is provided in the region of the burner head, transported back and from a swirling, helical flame heated to about 1,000 ° C and ignited. The flame jet itself has a very strong impulse and produces a very fast recirculation of the gas. In the further development, the main focus was on increasing the flame stability and the flame jet speed.
  • Hot gas generators are used, for example, in grinding mills in the grinding of coal to produce hot process gas.
  • the ground coal can be used for example in coal gasification or pig iron or steel production in the PCI process (Pulverized Coal Injection).
  • the necessary control ranges of the burner or of the hot gas generator are determined by the parameters of the following heat-consuming systems. This consumption depends in particular on the sometimes highly fluctuating moisture of the material to be ground and dried, the necessary throughput of the heat-consuming apparatus, in this case the grinding unit, and the ambient temperature.
  • the possible minimum and maximum throughput of such a roller mill is between 40% and 100%. This means that the mill has a control ratio of 1: 2.5.
  • the solid fuel burners To replace the known oil or gas fired burners with solid fuel burners, the solid fuel burners must achieve a control ratio of 1: 8 to 1:10.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a solid-fueled burner and a method for its operation, which achieves a high control ratio of 1: 8 or higher.
  • the generic solid-fueled burner is further developed in that the burner muffle is subdivided into a main-load muffle and a partial-load muffle, wherein the partial-load muffle covers 5% to 10% of the volume of the main muffle having.
  • the part-load muffle itself is essentially conical with a rotationally symmetrical basic shape, which has an axis of rotation.
  • the main load muff in turn, likewise has a rotationally symmetrical basic shape with an axis of rotation.
  • the axis of rotation of the main muffle and the axis of rotation of the part load muffle are in extension to each other. In other words, this can also be a single axis of rotation.
  • the main muffle is provided immediately after the part load muffle.
  • the invention is based on the finding that generic burners are usually designed only for one operating point, usually at 100% burner power. If now such a dimensioned burner driven with a lower load, so both the amount of combustion air supplied and the amount of fuel supplied is reduced. It has been found that from about 30% to 40% of the maximum load on a burner optimized for maximum load, the speeds at the burner head are so low that proper self-sustaining combustion can no longer be maintained and the burner fails, because the flame collapses. This is due to the fact that the flow rates of the combustion air and the fuel are very low, so that there is no sufficient mixing of the combustion air with the pulverized fuel and on the other hand that the supporting effect of the burner muffle is eliminated, since the flame far away from this. In addition, this plays an inadequate coordination of the combustion air-fuel ratio into it.
  • the burner muffle is subdivided into a main-load muffle and a partial-load muffle.
  • the part load muffle has a much smaller volume than the main load muffle. This results in the advantage that, if the burner is operated with, for example, only 20% of its maximum power, the flame can withdraw into the part load muffle and since it has a smaller volume, yet can be supported by the muffle wall. Due to the smaller volume and the outflow velocities of the combustion air and the fuel are sufficient so that the flame does not go out.
  • the burner is in full load operation or driven close to it, the flame of the burner can extend from the partial load muffle to the main muffle and occupy the entire space in the burner muffle, which is also referred to as the reaction space.
  • the part of the flame which is outside the part load muffle is supported by the main load muffle.
  • the burner head ie the area in which at least the fuel is supplied to the burner muffle or the combustion chamber, is located near or at the beginning of the partial load muffle.
  • the burner muffle consists of a small-volume part-load muffle, which widens in the direction of the burner mouth and converts to the bulky main muffle. This can be achieved, for example, in the form of two cylinders or cone-like structures arranged concentrically on the same axis of rotation, wherein a transition from the partial load muffle to the main load muffle is provided substantially in the radial direction.
  • combustion air supply is carried out at least three parts.
  • a first combustion air supply and a second combustion air supply for supplying combustion air are formed in the partial load muffle.
  • a third combustion air supply is provided for supplying combustion air into the main load muffle.
  • the combustion air supply By dividing the combustion air supply into different partial flows, a good and targeted combustion of the fuel can be achieved, as targeted a certain ratio of the combustion air to the fuel can be maintained.
  • the burner is operated only with 30% of its maximum load, and the burner flame is located substantially in the part load muffle, are also supplied via the different combustion air supply the combustion air mainly in the part load muffle.
  • This serves on the one hand for a good mixing of the fuel with the combustion air, which in turn enables efficient combustion and, on the other hand, prevents a collapse of the flame.
  • Another advantage of the division is that the individual feeds of the combustion air supply are each smaller. As a result, the combustion air supplies are operated at higher flow rates, which positively influences the stability of the flame.
  • solid fuel burners are generally operated at a lambda value between 1.4 and 2.0.
  • the quantities of combustion air both locally and temporally, must be adapted differently to the pulverulent fuel as a function of the thermal heat output.
  • This local and temporal supply of combustion air can be achieved by the use of the division of the combustion air supply according to the invention
  • the burner according to the invention is operated in part-load operation, for example at 30% of the maximum load, it must be ensured that the required lambda value is present in the region of the flame.
  • This can in turn be achieved by keeping the volume flow of the combustion air for the third combustion air supply relatively low and directing the majority of the combustion air via the first and / or second combustion air supply directly into the partial load muffle, since in this operating state the flame is substantially in the part load muffle is located. In other words, a large part of the combustion air is conducted into the part-load muffle.
  • the first and the second combustion air supply can be arranged arbitrarily in the region of the partial load muffle. It is advantageous if the first combustion air supply and the second combustion air supply are designed as an annular gap around the axis of rotation, wherein the first combustion air supply is provided closer to the axis of rotation than the second combustion air supply.
  • the combustion air can be injected well and evenly into the partial load muffle. Assuming that the fuel is injected relatively close to the axis of rotation, it turns out that way also a good mixing of the combustion air with the fuel. On the other hand, this provides the fuel with a sufficient amount of combustion air for combustion.
  • a further advantage of this arrangement - the first combustion air feed closer to the axis of rotation than the second combustion air feed - is that the principle which has already been described with respect to the main load muffle and the partial load muffle is also continued here. If the burner is operated at the lower end of its power range, for example at 10% of the maximum power, the required combustion air tends to be supplied by the first combustion air supply, which is closer to the axis of rotation, since in this operating state the flame is also smaller , However, if the burner is operated at 30% or 80% of its maximum load, combustion air can also be introduced into the part-load muffle through the second combustion air feed, resulting in sufficient combustion air supply for the corresponding load conditions.
  • the ratio of the exit cross-sectional areas of the combustion air of the first combustion air supply to the exit cross-sectional areas of the combustion air of the second combustion air supply is 1: 8 to 1:10. This means that the outlet cross-sectional areas of the first combustion air supply are made smaller than those of the second combustion air supply. This in turn makes it possible that the volume flow at assumed equal exit velocity of the combustion air of the first combustion air supply is less than the second combustion air supply. This in turn ensures that the flame is optimally supported and sufficient combustion air can be made available depending on the load condition of the burner.
  • the outlet cross-sectional areas of the combustion air of the third combustion air supply can be made arbitrarily large.
  • the ratio of the sum of the outlet cross-sectional areas of the combustion air of the first combustion air supply and the second combustion air supply to the outlet cross-sectional areas of the combustion air of the third combustion air supply is 1: 7 to 1:11.
  • the dimensioning of the outlet cross-sectional areas is such that, assuming an same flow rate through the outlet cross-sectional areas of the third combustion air supply, which conduct combustion air into the main muffle, significantly more combustion air can be supplied as by the two combustion air supply lines, which conduct combustion air into the part load muffle.
  • the second and / or the third combustion air supply in each case two or more independent combustion air feeds are executed with independent cross-sections.
  • This is particularly advantageous for burners with a maximum power of more than 10 MW.
  • This division is based on the finding that, as previously described in general, even with burners, which are designed for example for a maximum load of more than 100 MW, it is advantageous to further divide the combustion air supply, so that in each case an optimal supply to the one Combustion air quantity as well as in relation to the position of the supply line in the Brennermuffel the combustion air is possible. This allows for a sufficiently high lambda values and on the other hand a sufficiently high mixing within the burner muffle, so that a good combustion is achieved.
  • the second and / or third combustion air supply are each divided in the ratio of about 30:70 of the outlet cross-sectional areas of the combustion air, wherein the outlet for the smaller combustion air flow is provided closer to the axes of rotation.
  • the second combustion air supply is split into two separate combustion air supply lines, wherein the part of the second combustion air embodiment located further in the vicinity of the rotation axis has 30% of the cross-sectional area and the more external part of the second combustion air supply has 70% of the exit cross-sectional area.
  • the third combustion air supply can be divided into two, with one part having 30% and the other 70% of the total outlet cross-sectional areas.
  • swirl devices are provided for influencing the combustion air flows in a circular orbit about the axes of rotation within the part-load and main-load burner muffle. This ensures that a so-called swirl or whirl combustion chamber is generated.
  • a gas flow sets in, which rotates or runs around the axes of rotation in a spiral or helical manner.
  • the vortex profile of the gas flow thus generated in the combustion chamber forces the fuel particles due to the centrifugal force acting on a circular path on the outer walls of the combustion chamber.
  • the residence time of the fuel particles in the burner muffle or in the combustion zone of the combustion chamber, which is formed by the burner muffle increases, whereby a better more complete combustion can be achieved.
  • the invention relates to a method for operating a solid-fueled burner.
  • a burner has at least a first combustion air supply, a second combustion air supply and a third combustion air supply.
  • a burner muffle which consists of a partial load muffle and a main load muffle, wherein the first and the second combustion air supply for the supply of combustion air are designed in the part load muffle.
  • the third combustion air supply is designed to supply combustion air into the main muffle.
  • the solids-fired hot gas generator is operable in a continuous operating state between about 10% to 100% of its maximum power. It is further provided that the combustion air supply is controlled such that a flame is up to about 30% of the maximum power of the solids-fired hot gas generator substantially within the part load muffle.
  • the method is also based on the explained finding that in generic solid-fuel burners it is not possible to achieve operating states which are below about 40% of the maximum designed output.
  • the reason for this is that at a load range of 20% to 30% of the maximum load, the flow rates of both the combustion air and the fuel supply are so low that the flame is broken off or collapsed. This is also caused by the fact that the flame of the burner muffle is so far away that no supporting effect through the burner muffle is more present.
  • the combustion air supply is controlled such that the flame retreats from an amount of about 30% of the maximum power of the entire burner muffle, which is formed by the Kleinlastmuffel and the partial load muffle, substantially in the part load muffle.
  • This is smaller volume than the bulky Hauptlastmuffel.
  • the flame is better supported in the part load muffle.
  • With a smaller flow volume of the combustion air as well as delivery volume of the fuel supply a sufficiently good mixing and thus a combustion achieved so that the flame does not collapse. This makes it possible to operate the solid-fueled burner continuously between 10% or less up to 100% of its maximum power.
  • the second and third combustion air supply are operated at about 10% of their maximum design speed and that the first combustion air supply is operated at about 70% of its maximum design speed.
  • the speed with which the combustion air is blown out defines the volume of combustion air per unit time. This is decisive for influencing the burning behavior.
  • the flow rate is a common factor to influence this volume of combustion air per unit time, since the exit cross-sectional areas are determined by design.
  • the maximum design speed can be understood as meaning, in particular, the flow rate that is present when the burner is operated at 100% of its power.
  • the second and third combustion air supply By operating the second and third combustion air supply at about 10% of their maximum design speed and the first combustion air supply at about 70% of their maximum design speed, it is achieved that, when operated at 10% of the burner's maximum output, the relatively small flame is mainly due to the first combustion air supply is supplied with combustion air. If this combustion air supply is relatively close to the axes of rotation and the outlet of the delivery air of the fuel supply, then the flame is sufficiently supplied with combustion air and additionally supported. If the first combustion air supply is designed such that it directs its combustion air into the part-load muffle, it is also achieved by the process control according to the invention that, above all, combustion air reaches the part-load muffle. As a result, a supply of the flame, which has retreated into the partial load muffle, additionally supported.
  • the first combustion air supply from 70% to 100% of its maximum design speed.
  • the second combustion air supply can be continuously increased from 10% to 20% of its maximum design speed.
  • the second combustion air supply is located at the edge of the partial load muffle, so that by increasing the volume flow through the second combustion air supply, the flame is well supplied with additional air in the part of the partial mast, on the other hand also extending the flame is extended into the main muffle.
  • the flow velocity of the combustion air can be increased by the third combustion air supply in operation from 30% of the maximum power. It is preferred in this case if the flow rate is continuously increased from 10% to 100% of its maximum design speed when operating between 40% and 100% of the maximum power of the solid-fueled burner.

If the burner 10 is operated at a low load or power, for example 10% of its maximum load, the operating parameters are adjusted such that the burner flame is substantially in the partial load range I. If the burner 10 is started up and operated, for example, with 70% of its maximum load or maximum power, then the now existing burner flame extends from the partial load range I to far into the partial load range II.
