  • a pneumatic gas-air combination and/or an electronic combination can be used to regulate a combustion device.
  • a modulation range of one to seven can usually be achieved using a pneumatic gas-air combination.
  • the combustion output and the air supply only depend on the fan speed. If the use of other sensors is too complex, a correction of environmental influences is hardly possible.
  • environmental influences relate, for example, to air temperature, air pressure and changes in the supply air path or exhaust gas path of the combustion device.
  • An electronic network for the combustion of hydrogen requires additional sensors, for example to detect and safeguard the amount of fuel gas, in order to adjust the amount of fuel gas without combustion control. Meanwhile, such additional sensors are expensive.
  • the aim of the present disclosure is to provide a closed-loop and/or open-loop control system that enables combustible gases containing hydrogen to be burned.
  • an aim of the present disclosure is to provide regulation and/or control that achieves a sufficient degree of modulation.
  • Such a regulation can also be used for fuel gases containing hydrocarbons and/or for a mixture of fuel gases containing hydrocarbons with hydrogen.
  • Regulating and/or controlling a combustion device based on a single signal from a temperature sensor is delicate.
  • the signal from the temperature sensor essentially depends on its position in the combustion chamber of a combustion device. It must be taken into account here that the temperature signal is a function of the supply of the fuel-air mixture and thus depends on the combustion output. In addition, the temperature signal also depends on the mixing ratio between fuel and air and thus on the air ratio. It is hardly possible to obtain an unambiguous assignment for a measured temperature value to exactly one combination of combustion output and air ratio with just one temperature sensor. Therefore, an additional signal is usually required. This signal is usually the air supply as a representative of a mixture supply or combustion output.
  • the air ratio can then be corrected using a specified characteristic curve.
  • a procedure is in EP1902254B1 described, where in EP1902254B1 the measured temperature is given in the value range as a function of air ratio and combustion output.
  • a less complex sensor does not record any fluctuations in the ambient conditions such as air temperature, air pressure or fluctuations in the supply air path and/or exhaust gas path.
  • Such a less complex sensor is, for example, the fan speed detection of the fan. Consequently, that sensor has the disadvantage that it only incompletely determines the air supply.
  • the present disclosure addresses those difficulties by placing more than one sensor in the furnace of a combustor.
  • more than one temperature sensor placed in the combustion chamber of the combustion device.
  • the signals from both sensors, in particular both temperature sensors are read out and processed into values for a combustion output.
  • the signals from both sensors, in particular both temperature sensors can likewise each be processed into a value for an air ratio ⁇ . It can then be regulated and/or controlled on the basis of the determined combustion line and/or the determined air ratio ⁇ .
  • ambiguities can be resolved by arranging a further sensor, in particular a further temperature sensor, in the combustion chamber.
  • a signal is read from the additional sensor, in particular from the additional temperature sensor.
  • the signal read out is processed to a value of a combustion output and included in the determination of a current combustion output of the combustion device.
  • a feed signal in the evaluation.
  • a supply signal can be, for example, a fan speed of a fan in an air supply duct.
  • a supply channel can be a signal from a flow sensor in the air supply channel or in the fuel supply channel.
  • a supply signal can be obtained from an air damper position and/or from a position of a fuel actuator. The use of a feed signal has the advantage that the assignment of feed signal to combustion power is often unambiguous.
  • the two characteristic curves for determining the pairs of combustion output are specified for a specified air ratio. With the appropriate positioning of the two sensors in the combustion chamber, there is exactly one pair of points from the two sensor values at which both combustion outputs are the same for all possible air ratio values
  • the combustion output can be determined in the range of values as a function of the respective measurement signal for a specified target value of the air ratio.
  • the determination is made for each sensor arranged in the combustion chamber. In this way, both the air ratio and the combustion output can be adjusted to specified target values.
  • the combustion power depending on the associated sensor signal can be stored as a polynomial for both functions.
  • the two functions can be stored as a sequence of points between which linear interpolation is carried out over the minimum distance between the two points. If additional sensors are used, a function of the combustion power is stored in the value range of three or more sensors.
  • Another sensor can be, for example, a third sensor in the combustion chamber or a feed sensor.
  • the regulation takes place, for example, by first adjusting the air actuator or, alternatively, the fuel actuator. The adjustment is made until the combustion outputs determined from the two temperature values are the same or are close to each other. The combustion output is then calculated, for example, as the average of the two combustion outputs determined. The air actuator and fuel actuator are then adjusted in such a way that the calculated combustion output is at its target value, for example via a control loop. Any resulting deviation of the air ratio from the target value is readjusted again via the air actuator or alternatively the fuel actuator. As a result of the readjustment, the combustion outputs calculated from the two measurement signals are the same again.
  • the air ratio and combustion output can be set together within a dead band of the target values using a multi-loop controller.
