DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention generally relates to a fossil fuel furnace and a method of operating a fossil fuel furnace. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pulverized coal furnace and a method of operating a pulverized coal furnace to control the flow of combustion products therein. [Prior Art] It has been a long time for the solid fuel of the powder to be suspended and burned in the furnace by the tangential combustion method. The tangential combustion technique involves introducing powder solid fuel and wind from the four corners of a furnace into the furnace to direct the powder solid fuel and wind in a tangential line with a virtual circle in the center of the furnace. This type of combustion has a number of advantages, among which it has the advantage of allowing the powder solid fuel to be well mixed with the wind, stable flame conditions and a longer residence time of the combustion gases in the furnace. It is known that a staged combustion path can improve the reduction in N〇x in a petrochemical fuel furnace, such as, for example, a furnace in which pulverized coal is burned. The staged combustion path may include reducing the amount of wind introduced into the main furnace zone of the furnace, which is the area where fuel is injected, such as pulverized coal, rather than introducing a greater amount of wind above the main furnace zone. In the past few years, different approaches have been sought in the prior art in relation to the need to address the limited emissions of Ν 产生 x produced in the furnace due to the burning of fossil fuels. One such approach focuses on the development of so-called low NOx combustion systems suitable for use in petrochemical fuel furnaces. Titled "clustered

The two tangentially fired furnaces disclosed in the two references are utilized at 92522.doc 1306144. One of the objects of the present invention is to provide a separation fire placed at a height a furnace for a wind system that maximizes the substoichiometric residence time of the combustion gases in the boiler, thereby reducing NOxi emissions. It is also an object of the present invention to provide a melting system with a separation fire upwind system It can vary the speed of the coal injected into the furnace to reduce the emission of helium. Another object of the invention is to provide a furnace that uses a secondary division of the auxiliary wind compartment to provide more robust stoichiometry to the adjacent area. Control, thereby reducing NOxi emissions. > Another object of the present invention is to provide a furnace that reduces ΝΟχ2 emissions by controlling the trajectory of coal injected from a low coal level. Other objects and advantages of the invention will be understood by the following description. [Embodiment] Referring to the drawings, wherein like numerals represent the same parts in several figures, the chemical fuel furnace 10 has a plurality of walls u capable of forming a furnace zone 12, wherein A combustion process is maintained by all of the line combustion systems 14. The tangential combustion system Η preferably has a type commonly referred to as a concentric tangential combustion system. It can be used in a petrochemical fuel furnace 1 (which can be a pulverized coal furnace) (4) The concentric tangential burning system i 4 is operated in 12. The furnace zone 2 defines a longitudinal axis BL of a chamber extending straight through the center of the furnace zone 12. The furnace zone 12 has four corners, each of which The combustion chamber formed by the furnace zone has a parallel six-sided selection v-shape such as 'which may be rectangular or square. The four corners of the combustion chamber are arranged. There is a bellows 16 Α, a second bellows ΐ 6β, a third bellows 92522.doc • 13-1306144 a fourth bellows 16D. As seen in a circle with respect to the longitudinal axis BL of the combustion zone, the first - The bellows 16A is disposed substantially circumferentially between the second bellows and the fourth bellows 16D such that the first bellows 16A is located at a circumference substantially equal to each of the second bellows '6B and the fourth bellows} 6D. Interval. As viewed in a circumferential direction, the third bellows 16C is disposed substantially circumferentially between the second bellows and the fourth bellows 16D and on the other side of the bellows so that the third bellows 16C is located at a distance The second bellows 16B and the fourth bellows 16D are each at substantially equal circumferential intervals. "The first bellows 1·6Α and the third windbox 16C define a first pair of side-by-side bellows in a juxtaposed relationship (that is, the pair of bellows are disposed on a diagonal DD passing through the longitudinal axis bl) . The second windbox 16B and the fourth windbox 16D define a second pair of side windboxes in a juxtaposed relationship. The bellows 16A-16D each include a plurality of compartments, and will now be described in more detail with respect to the first bellows 16A, thus for the purpose of descriptive purposes, the first bellows 16 is buckled into a representative bellows. It should be understood that the configuration and operation of other bellows 16 cores are equivalent to this representative bellows. The first windbox 16A includes a series of lower compartments 18, each of which is for introducing fuel, wind or both fuel and wind therethrough to thereby wind the low level compartment 18 of the series The combination with the fuel is introduced into the combustion chamber. However, it should be appreciated that one or more of the bellows 16A-16D may be alternately configured such that a series of lower compartments 18 only introduce one of the fuel or the wind as desired. In the stove area 12. The lower compartment 18 series extends into the lower half BH of the furnace in a vertical configuration, wherein one of the lowermost compartments (designated top lower compartment 18T) from the lowermost compartments to the lower compartments Medium 92522.doc -14-1306144 42 also provides low speed SOFA injection 46. With a conventional size s〇FA, at least one fire upwind compartment 34 of the nozzle 50 provides a SOFA injection 44 having a maximum speed that is acceptable for the available fan. The variable speed SOFA assembly 42 is designed such that the wind flow through all of the compartments 34, 36 is equivalent to the pressure drop through the large SOFA compartment 36, which is separated by the wall 51 and the baffle 52 of 36. The limited path formed therein is crossed. Additional SOFA free zones allow for a simple change in the number of SOFAs to optimize them during boiler adjustments. Each of the SOFA compartments 34, 36 has an independent deflection controller. The stoichiometry of the adjacent zone can be controlled by using the secondary division of the bellows to obtain an additional reduction in NOx emissions. Referring to Figure 6, the wind injection compartment 18C between the pair of coal injection compartments 18A, 18B can be divided into three smaller secondary compartments 54, 56, 58 each having its inherent Wind nozzles 60, 62, 64. Dividing the individual wind nozzles 22 into three individual wind nozzles 6A, a, 64 increases the surface area of the resulting wind jet, resulting in faster removal of exhaust gases that reduce local oxygen concentrations. A separate baffle 66, 68, 7G may be provided for each of the secondary compartments 54, 56, 58 or the intermediate secondary compartment may have a _ plate and the upper and lower secondary compartments 54, 58 may have - The common slabs allow the field to provide enhanced control over the stoichiometry of adjacent furnaces. Moreover, the secondary compartments 54, %, 58 will have a common tilt control 72 to assist the windbox optimization or to deviate from the adjacent coal jets: 20, 20' selective low' The offset is prepared. The secondary compartments 54, 56, 58 can separate the deflection controller 74.
