- According to embodiments of the present invention, the modifying part modifies fuel to discharge a modified gas including hydrogen and supplies fuel and air to an outer side of an outlet to the supply part, and thus, a flame can be stably formed at a position spaced apart by a pre-set distance from the outlet.
- Thus, a time for mixing fuel supplied from the supply part and air can be further secured by a time corresponding to the distance between the outlet of the combustion apparatus and the flame. Since the mixture time is lengthened, fuel and air can be more uniformly mixed, and thus, generation of NOx can be reduced.

FIG. 1 is a partial sectional perspective view of a combustion apparatus according to a first embodiment of the present invention.FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the combustion apparatus illustrated inFIG. 1 .FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line III-Iii inFIG. 2 . - Referring to
FIGS. 1 to 3 , acombustion apparatus 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes a modifyingpart 100 for modifying hydrocarbon-based fuel into a high temperature modified gas including hydrogen and asupply part 200 jetting fuel and air to anoutlet 101 of thecombustion apparatus 1. Hydrogen included in the modified gas has fast combustion speed and fast diffusion speed. Thus, the high temperature modified gas and hydrogen supplied from the modifyingpart 100 form a flame F at a position distant from theoutlet 101 of thecombustion apparatus 1 and prevents the flame F from being blown off. Namely, the modified gas and hydrogen may stabilize the flame F at a position distant from theoutlet 101 of thecombustion apparatus 1. - To this end, the modifying
part 100 is provided in the center of thecombustion apparatus 1 and configured to make supplied fuel react according to a partial oxidation condition to modify it into a gas including high temperature hydrogen and discharge the hydrogen and the modified gas to theoutlet 101. - The modified gas discharged from the modifying
part 100 is jetted to a front side (the flame F) from theoutlet 101 to push the flame F based on the combustion of the fuel supplied from thesupply part 200 and air to stably maintain the flame F at a position distant from theoutlet 101 by a pre-set distance L. - In the present embodiment, the
modifying part 100 is integrally provided in thecombustion apparatus 1, so it can stably supply hydrogen toward the air and fuel supplied from thesupply part 200 to theoutlet 101. Thus, the modifyingpart 100 can supply hydrogen by a simple configuration, and thus, namely, an additional device for supplying hydrogen is not required. - The
supply part 200 is provided at an outer side of theoutlet 101 and configured to jet fuel and air to an outer side of the discharged modified gas to form the flame F. Thesupply part 200 according to the present embodiment is formed to have a structure for accommodating the modifyingpart 100. The fuel and air supplied from thesupply part 200 is pushed by a pre-set distance L from theoutlet 101 by the modified gas supplied from the modifyingpart 100. - However, due to fast combustion and spreading speed of the high temperature modified gas and hydrogen supplied from the modifying
part 100, the fuel and air supplied from thesupply part 200 are burnt at a position distant from theoutlet 101 by the distance L, rather than being blown off, thus stably maintaining the flame F. - The distance L set between the
outlet 101 and the flame F secures a longer period of time for mixing fuel and air supplied from thesupply part 200. Thus, the fuel and air in a state of having left theoutlet 101 may be further uniformly mixed while proceeding by the distance L. - In this manner, the
combustion apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment can drastically generation of NOx by using the fast combustion and spreading performance of the high temperature modified gas and hydrogen generated in the modifyingpart 100 when fuel is burnt. - When a mixture ratio of the fuel and air in the modifying
part 100 is excessively rich, a partial oxidation reaction does not take place and hydrogen is not generated. Conversely, when the mixture ratio of the fuel and air in the modifyingpart 100 is overly close to a combustion ratio, the flame is maintained only within the modifyingpart 100 and hydrogen is not generated. - When hydrogen is not generated in the modifying
part 100, flame formed according to combustion of fuel and air supplied to thesupply part 200 is blown out in theoutlet 101 of thecombustion apparatus 1. Thus, a mixture of fuel and air is required to have an appropriate equivalence ratio. - For example, since a stoichiometric ratio of partial oxidation in a hydrocarbon-based fuel is 0.5 and a stoichiometric ratio of combustion is 2.0. Thus, in case of LNG having methane as a main ingredient in a mixture of fuel and air in the modifying
part 100, O2/C ratio may range from 0.7 to 1.9. - The
combustion apparatus 1 will be described in detail. The modifyingpart 100 includes afirst housing 10 supplying air and electrically earthed, and an electrode E separately installed at the center within thehousing 10 to supply fuel and receiving a voltage HV applied thereto. - When the voltage HV is applied to the electrode E, plasma discharge occurs in the fuel and air mixed between the electrode E and the
first housing 10. In this case, the fuel is partially oxidized to form a high temperature modified gaseous state including hydrogen. - The
first housing 10 includes adischarge region 111 and an expandedregion 112 set according to a direction in which a gas modified as fuel and air are introduced is discharged. Thedischarge region 111 has a discharge gap G formed between thefirst housing 10 and the electrode E, and plasma discharge occurs in the discharge gap G to allow supplied fuel and air to react under a partial oxidation condition so as to be modified. - The expanded
region 112 is formed to be expanded greater than a diameter of thedischarge region 111 at one side of thedischarge region 111, and stabilizes gas discharged after being reacted under the partial oxidation condition and discharges the stabilized gas. Namely, the modified gas reacted under the partial oxidation condition is re-circulated in the large space of the expandedregion 112 so as to be stabilized. - The
supply part 200 includes asecond housing 20 separately disposed on an outer circumference of thefirst housing 10 and athird housing 30 separately disposed on an outer circumference of thesecond housing 20. In this case, thefirst housing 10 is accommodated in the second housing, and thesecond housing 20 is accommodated in thethird housing 30 by stages. For example, the first, second, andthird housings - A fuel passage P1 is formed between the
first housing 10 and thesecond housing 20, and an air passage P2 is formed between thesecond housing 20 and thethird housing 30. The fuel passage P1 and the air passage P2 supply fuel and air supplied to one side thereof to the modifyingpart 100 and thesupply part 200. - For example, the air passage P2 is connected to the
discharge region 111 of the modifyingpart 100 across the fuel passage P1 by apassage connection member 22 connected to thefirst housing 10 by passing through thesecond housing 20. The air passage P2 supplies air to thedischarge region 111. Also, the air passage P2 supplies air between end portions E2 and E3 of the second andthird housings supply part 200. - For example, the
second housing 20 includes aside wall 21 formed at one side of the fuel passage P1, and thefirst housing 10 may be connected to theside wall 21 of thesecond housing 20 through various methods such as screw connection, welding, or the like. For the screw connection, thefirst housing 10 further includes acoupling portion 11 protruded toward theside wall 21 of thesecond housing 20. Namely, a male screw of thecoupling portion 11 is screw-connected to a female screw of theside wall 21. - Here, the fuel passage P1 set between the first and
second housings first housing 10 and a supply side P12 connected to an outer circumference of thefirst housing 10. - The
coupling portion 11 of thefirst housing 10 includes a throughhole 12 connecting the inflow side P11 and the supply side P12 of the fuel passage P1. As soon as air introduced to the inflow side P11 is supplied to thedischarge region 111, it is supplied to the supply side P12 through the throughhole 12 of thecoupling portion 11. - In the opposite side of the
side wall 21 of thesecond housing 20, thefirst housing 10, thefirst housing 10 includes aflange 13 formed on an end portion E1 set in one side of thesecond housing 20 in a length direction (in a horizontal direction inFIG. 2 ). - The
flange 13 is formed to be protruded to the outside in a diameter direction of thesecond housing 20 and forms a space C with the end portion E2 of thesecond housing 20. The space C allow the supply side P12 of the fuel passage P1 to be open toward the outer side in a diameter direction of thesecond housing 20, so that supplied fuel can be supplied toward the outer side of thesecond housing 20. - Here, the end portion E2 of the
second housing 20 and the end portion E3 of thethird housing 30 are disposed in the same straight line in the diameter direction, allowing air supplied through the air passage P2 to be mixed with fuel supplied between the both end portions E2 and E3. - Namely, fuel supplied through the fuel passage P1 is supplied to the end of the air passage P2 through the space C so as to be mixed with air supplied through the air passage P2, and discharged to a front side of the
outlet 101 in thecombustion apparatus 1 to form the flame F. - The size of the space C may be adjusted according to a range in which the
coupling portion 11 of thefirst housing 10 is fastened to theside wall 21 of thesecond housing 20. A mixture ratio of air and fuel may be set by controlling supply of fuel through the fuel passage P1 with respect to supply of air through the air passage P2 according to a size of the space C. - Also, the
first housing 10 includes aninner member 14 and anouter member 15 coupled to partially overlap with each other in a length direction. Theinner member 14 includes anair nozzle 16 jetting air toward the electrode E of thedischarge region 111. - A plurality of
air nozzles 16 are disposed to be spaced apart from theinner member 14 in a circumferential direction, and have an angle (θ) sloped with respect to a diameter direction of the inner member 14 (SeeFIG. 3 ). Thus, air supplied to theair nozzle 16 is supplied while being rotated in the circumferential direction between the electrode E and thefirst housing 10 and in the gap G. - The
outer member 15 includes achamber 17 coupled to an outer circumference of theinner member 14 and accommodating air upon receiving it from theair nozzle 16. Thus, thechamber 17 makes amounts of air jet through the plurality ofair nozzles 16 uniform by uniformly maintaining pressure of supplied air. - Meanwhile, the electrode E forming the
discharge region 111 together with theinner member 14 includes afuel nozzle 26 jetting fuel. Thefuel nozzle 26 is connected to the inflow side P11 of the fuel passage P1 and jets supplied fuel to the inner wall of theinner member 14 in the vicinity of the gap G. - The fuel jetted to the gap G of the
discharge region 111 is mixed with air rotated upon being jetted through theair nozzle 16, and reacts under a partial oxidation condition, while generating a rotating arc by a voltage HV set between the electrode E and theinner member 14. Namely, fuel is modified into a high temperature gas including hydrogen. - The hydrogen and the modified gas modified in the
discharge region 111 is recirculated in the expandedregion 112 so as to be stabilized and discharged to theoutlet 101. The discharged hydrogen and modified gas act as pushing force in the distance L within a pre-set range in front of theoutlet 101 to thrust fuel and air supplied to thesupply part 200 out of the range of the distance L. - Thus, the fuel and air supplied to the
supply part 200 reaches outside of the range of the distance L through the outside of the region of the hydrogen and modified gas. At the same time, the modified gas is maintained to have a high temperature state and hydrogen has a fast combustion and spreading speed. Thus, the fuel and air supplied to thesupply part 200 is implemented for lean combustion outside of the range of the distance L, stably maintaining the flame F. - While proceeding by the distance L, the fuel and air supplied to the
supply part 20 are mixed to have a further uniform state for an additional mixture time, implementing lean combustion. Thus, when fuel is burnt, generation of NOx can be reduced. -

FIGS. 4 and 5 , the relatedart combustion apparatus 2 approaches the outlet to form a flame F2. In comparison, thecombustion apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention stabilizes the flame F at a position distant from theoutlet 101 by the distance L. It can be seen that the flame F is not formed in the central portion of theoutlet 101. - Hereinafter, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. A description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment will be omitted and a different configuration from that of the first embodiment will be described.

Referring toFIG. 6 , in acombustion apparatus 3 according to the second embodiment of the present invention, asupply part 300 is formed to jet fuel and air in a direction parallel to the discharge direction of the modified gas at an outer side of the modified gas including hydrogen discharged from the modifyingpart 100. - For example, an end portion E21 of the
first housing 10 includes aflange 23 disposed at an inner side of an end portion E22 of thesecond hosing 20 and protruded inwardly in a diameter direction of thefirst housing 10. - The
flange 23 is formed to narrow theoutlet 102 in thedischarge region 111 to thus lower or adjust a speed of the modified gas including hydrogen sprut through theoutlet 102. - An end portion E23 of the
third housing 30 is disposed to be parallel in theoutlet 102 together with the end portion E22 of thesecond housing 20. A first swirler S1 may is provided between the end portions E21 and E22 of the first andsecond housings third housings - Thus, fuel discharged between the end portions E21 and E22 of the first and
second housings third housings - The fuel and air mixed by the first and second swirlers S1 and S2 may form the flame F, without being blown out, at a position distant from the
outlet 102 by the distance L according to the discharge speed of the modified gas. - While this invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
