To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CARLETON ELLIS, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Montclair, Essex county, New Jersey, have made certain new and useful Inventions Relating to Domestic Gas Heating Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to gas heating apparatus of the diaphragm type in which the porous and permeable diaphragm for burning an explosive gaseous mixture is provided with a casing having special cooling means to prevent back-heati or back-firing, the diaphragm being, if desired, used in inverted or vertical positionin which the ascending heat tends to promote the backheating of the diaphra In the accompanying drawing showing in a somewhat diagrammatic way illustrative embodiments of the invention,
Figure 1 is a vertical section through a domestic heating chamber or oven.
Fig. 2 is a similar section through another form of apparatus.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional view taken substantially along the line 33 of Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view through another apparatus.
This diaphragm gas heating apparatus is adapted for the baking, heating of calcining of various materials, and especially where an inverted or vertical heating diaphragm is used, special cooling devices are preferably employed to prevent the back-heating or back-firing of the diaphragm which can thus be used even in inverted position with good results, the diaphragm in this way effecting the accelerated surface combustion of the explosive gases fed therethrough and burning the same under highly efiicient conditions, this combustion not being interfered with even by the presence of the burned gases, steam or other vapors adjacent the diaphragm. The diaphra cooling devices may comprise a chamber or liquid adjacent the diaphragm casing which simultaenously serves to heat the cooling liquid so as to effect further economies.
In the illustrative arrangement shown in Fig. 1 the heating chamber or oven 1 is formed with walls which may consist of sheet metal plates 21 having a suitable air space such as 19 between them to minimize heat losses and if desired the heating chamber may be provided with suitable brackets such as 15 at various heights to support the grate or supporting member 2 on which, for example, a baking pan 16 may be placed. The heating chamber may be conveniently heated by the inverted porous refractory diaphragm 3 arranged to cooperate with the top of the heating chamber and cooperating with a suitable casing 22 which may be connected with the diaphragm by interposing non-conducting packing 12 between the edge of this casing and a cooperating diaphragm support 13 which ma inclose the edge of the diaphragm. The iaphragm may, if desired be provided with suitable projections or ribs-such as 4: on its rear surface within the gas chamber and the casing may be formed with corresponding projections or ribs 42 which may be located between the diap-ragm ribs so as to promote heat transfer therefrom, although such ribbed construction is not of course necessary in all cases on the diaphragnr'or casing. The gas chamber formed behind the diaphragm by this casing 22 may be supplied with explosive gases through the injecting or supply passage 14 supplied in any desired way w1th an explosive mixture of combustible gas and air or other supporter of combustion preferably in substantially the proportions required for complete combustion. This may be effected by the use of an injecting nozzle 8 having a valved gas connection to supply combustible gas thereto, from which nozzle the gas is injected under high pressure into a suitable injector which may have the nested petticoat nozzle construction such as 7, whereby air is drawn in by injector action and finally supplied under the desired pressure behind the diaphragm so as to be fed therethrough and normally burned by surface combustion within the outer layer or working face of the diaphragm which is thereby maintained in highly heated incandescent condition. In order to prevent back-heating of the porous refractory diaphragm the dissipation of heat from its rear surface may be promoted by the ribbed construction of the diaphragm and casing and also, if desired, by the lise of a cooling liquid chamber, such as 5, by which water or other cooling liquid 6 may be maintained in contact with the diaphragm casing so as to keep the same cool. If desired, the liquid may be supplied continuously or from time to time in amounts required through the pipe 17 by means of the inlet valve 18 and in some cases it is desirable to utilize the steam or other vapor produced when this liquid is heated in the normal operation of the device and a vapor pipe 10 may supply this vapor through the connectin portion 11 into the oven or heating chain er in amounts regulated by the vapor valve 9 so that if desired this steam maybe supplied to the baking oven and the steam roast-ing of materials effected therein. The steam which is relatively lighter than air or combustion gases under the same temperature conditions tends to fill the upper part of the oven .or heating chamber and is finally discharged through one or more suitable vapor outlets such as 20 which may be formed in the lower part of the chamber. The presence of steam or other vapor adjacent the incandescent diaphragm does not interfere with the accelerated surface combustion of the gaseous fuel therein, or with the radiation of heat therefrom to the material in the heating chamber. By this arrangement the diaphragm is not only sufiiciently cooled to be maintained in normal operating condition, but steam may be simply and economically produced in con nection with the heating or roasting apparatus so as to be available for modifying the oven heats or for steam roasting therein.
Another arrangement is shown in Fig. 2 in which the heating chamber or oven 23 is formed with similar walls 28 provided if desired with air spaces such as 27. a suitable door being provided on the side opposite the diaphragm 3 which may be hinged similarly to the door shown in Fig. 4: but so as to stand in vertical position. As shown more in detail in Fig. 3 the diaphragm 3 which may be provided with integral projections or ribs 4 on its rear face may be formed of porous granules of fire clay or other suitable refractory material cemented together, these granules bein preferably of substantially uniform size w ich is considerably relatively exaggerated in the drawings. Diaphragms of about an inch and a quarter thick and formed of fire clay granules of about uniform sixteenth of an inch size are suitable for many gaseous mixtures such as illuminating gas and the like. The diaphragm may be mounted in connection with a casing 22 which may be formed with projections or ribs 42* projecting between the diaphragm ribs and connected to the diaphragm support 13 of sheet metal or other suitable material by an interposed non-conducting packing 12 which may be formed of asbestos cement or other suitable material and readily forced into place so as to give strong mechanical connection between the parts of the diaphragm mounting and at the same time minimize the conduction of heat from the outer face of the diaphragm to the casing forming the gas chamto correspondinglv cool the upper part the diaphragm which tends to become some-v what heated by the heat rising from the diav I phragm surface and other heated material below. An injecting nozzle 8 and injector 7 similar to the nozzle 8 and injector 7 of Fig. 1 are shown in this connection for supplying explosive gases through the injecting or supply pipe 14* communicating with the upper part of the gas chamber behind the diaphragm to maintain a supply of the explosive mixture in the gas chamber to cause the mixture to flow through the diaphragm so as to burn in the workin face of the diaphragm and heat the charm er to the desired extent. In this instance, a suitable air cooling arrangement is shown for minimizing back-heating of the diaphragm. the shell 26 of sheet iron or other material substantially inclosing the diaphragm and gas chamber and forming a cooling chamber 25 in connection therewith to which cool air or other gaseous medium may be supplied as through the coolin pipe 29 preferably communicating with tiie upper part of this cooling chamber. The circulation of this cooling fluid may be effected in any desired way, as for instance by a suitable flue connection 30 by which this fluid may be with drawn and discharged into a chimney or flue creating sufiicient draft for this purpose when the regulating valve in this flue connection is opened.
Another illustrative arrangement is shown in Fig. 4 as comprising a heating chamber or oven 36 having a door 32 and in which several diaphragms 3 are mounted around the inside of the chamber in connection with cooperating gas chambers 30, 31 and 32. Each gas chamber may as indicated he supplied with an explosive gaseous mixture through the injecting or supply passage 14 connecting with the injector 7 and nozzle 8. A shell 37 of sheet iron or other material may inclose the gas chambers and diaphragms forming a cooling chamber 35 around the same. The cooling chamber may be provided with a valved outlet 33 and with a valved liquid inlet 34 for the circulation of water or other cooling liquid through this cooling chamber 35. This arrangement may be used for the heating of water for domestic or other purposes, the water operating in the manner described to cool the diaphragms and prevent back-heating therethrough.
Such heating apparatus is adapted for use with gaseous or vaporous fuel of various kinds and may be used with good results where Blau gas or other liquefied or highly compressed gas is available. Such rich combustible gas requires the admixture of a correspondingly large proportion of air for best results and where injector action is relied upon to secure the incorporation of such air the pressure of the gas supplied to the initial injecting nozzle may be varied in such a way as to secure the incorporation of varying amounts of air by injector action. A number of determinations made with a porous refractory diaphragm of this general type having a thickness of about an inch and a quarter and composed of porous fire clay granules of about a sixteenth of an inch diameter cemented together so as to give a high degree of porosity and permeability to the diaphragm gave the following empirical equation:
where P is the pressure in pounds of the gas supplied to the initial injecting nozzle and B is the number of B. T. U.s per cubic foot of the gas under normal atmospheric pressure. These formulas seem to give approximate values of the initial gas pressure suitable for proper operation of these diaphragnis under conditions insuring the incorporation of ample air and also substantially proper pressures of the combustible gases for normal surface combustion so that undesirable flaming of the diaphragm is avoided.
Having described this invention in connection with a number of illustrative embodiments, forms, proportions, materials, arrangements and methods of operation, to the details of which disclosure the invention is not of course to be limited what is claimed as new and what is desired to be secured by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims.
