Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to liquid spray nozzles, and more particularly, to spray nozzle assemblies particularly adapted for atomizing and spraying a liquid feed to a fluidized catalytic cracking riser reactor.
- Such spray nozzle assemblies typically include a nozzle body which defines a mixing chamber into which a liquid hydrocarbon and pressurized gas, such as steam, are introduced and within which the liquid hydrocarbon is atomized.
- a liquid hydrocarbon and pressurized gas such as steam
- an impingement pin extends into the chamber and defines liquid impingement surface on the center line of the mixing chamber in diametrically opposed relation to the liquid inlet against which a pressurized liquid stream impinges and is transversely dispersed and across which pressurized steam from a gas inlet is directed for further interaction and shearing of the liquid into fine droplets.
- the atomized liquid within the mixing chamber is directed under the force of the pressurized steam through an elongated tubular barrel, commonly disposed within a wall of the catalytic reactor riser, for discharge from a spray tip at a downstream end thereof within the riser. Notwithstanding passage through the elongated tubular barrel the liquid must discharge as a very fine liquid particle spray for optimum performance.
- the steam cross flow must be at a high volume and pressure, approximately 110 psi, and the liquid pressure must be kept at approximately the same or greater pressure.
- the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream must pass through half the diameter of the mixing chamber before it impacts the impingement pin.
- the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream introduced into the mixing chamber to only partially impact the impingement surface of the impingement pin.
- the reason for this is that the liquid flow stream must pass a significant distance through the mixing chamber where it is subjected to a heavy cross flow of steam before impacting the impingement surface. This tends to cause a shift in the liquid flow stream away from the center of the impingement surface, the magnitude of which is dependent upon the velocities of the pressurized steam and liquid flow streams for a particular setup.
- Another object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly as characterized above that can be efficiently operated at lower liquid pressures, nearly half that of conventional catalytic cracking spray nozzle assemblies, with lesser expensive processing equipment.
- a further object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly of the foregoing type in which the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream introduced into the mixing chamber of the spray nozzle body is not adversely effected by the pressurized steam prior to engaging an impingement surface that shatters and transversely directs the liquid within a mixing zone.
- Still another object to provide a spray nozzle assembly of the above kind that reduces the amount of steam necessary for effective liquid atomization.
- Yet a further object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly of such type that is effective for efficiently atomizing relatively heavy crude oils, such as resids and petroleum bottoms, without clogging or plugging of the spray nozzle components.
- Another object is to provide such a spray nozzle assembly that has a relatively simple and durable design which lends itself to economical manufacture.

- a spray tip 25 having one or more discharge orifices 26 is supported at a downstream end of the tubular member 17 within the riser for discharging and directing the atomized liquid spray.
- the tubular member 17 may be one or more lengths of pipe, such as Schedule 80 steel pipe, having an internal diameter of between about 2 to 8 inches.
- the spray nozzle assembly is operable for atomizing liquid hydrocarbon into a finer liquid particle discharge for more efficient spray performance while operating at significantly lower liquid pressures.
- the liquid hydrocarbon inlet 22 is disposed at an upstream end of the nozzle body tubular member 17 and the steam inlet 21 communicates with through a side wall of the tubular member 17 .
- the steam inlet 21 includes a fitting 30 having a mounting clamp 31 for securement to a supply line 32 coupled to a steam or other gas supply and a downstream end with a counter bore section 34 that fits within an opening 35 of the tubular member 17 , which in this case is formed with an inwardly tapered conical side wall for facilitating securement of the fitting 30 to the tubular member 17 by an appropriate annular weldment.
- the stem inlet fitting 30 has a central flow passageway 36 with a steam inlet passage section 36 a communicating through the tubular member 17 .

- the liquid inlet 22 includes an elongated closed end liquid injector 50 extending into the mixing zone 20 along a central axis 51 thereof, which has a liquid extension passageway 52 communicating between the orifice member 45 and a plurality of discharge orifices 54 adjacent a downstream end of the extension passageway 52 which transversely direct liquid into the mixing zone 20 in perpendicular relation to the central axis 51 .
- the liquid injector 50 in this case is a separate tubular member having a closed downstream end fixedly mounted with an upstream end in abutting relation to a downstream end of the liquid orifice member 45 .
- the liquid injector 50 has an upstream outwardly extending annular flange 55 that is clamped between a shoulder defined by an annular end 38 of the fitting 40 and the downstream end of the orifice member 45 , which is threadedly mounted within the fitting 40 .
- the orifice member 45 and the liquid injector 50 could be made as a single part.
- the central extension passageway 52 of the liquid injector 50 has an upstream passage section 52 a larger in diameter than the orifice member passageway 46 for allowing unimpeded flow of liquid hydrocarbon into the injector 50 , which then is channeled into a smaller downstream passage section 52 b.
- the liquid injector 50 has a closed downstream terminal end 58 with an “x” configuration of the liquid discharge orifices 54 .
- the discharge orifices 54 in this case are defined by cylindrical passages that extend radially outwardly in perpendicular relation to the central axis 51 and define a flat internal impingement surface 60 perpendicular to the central axis 51 against which pressurized liquid hydrocarbon communicating through the extension passageway 52 impinges and is transversely directed and spread out into the mixing zone 20 .
- annular steam wall 64 and orifice ring 65 are disposed within the tubular member 17 adjacent a downstream end of the liquid injector 50 , which supports the liquid injector 50 and defines a plurality of concentrating steam discharge orifices 66 at the specific locations of each injector discharge orifice 54 for causing steam to directly interact with and atomize the liquid flow streams discharging from the liquid injector 50 .
- the annular steam wall 64 in this case is a plate like wall member welded within the tubular body member 17 for defining an annular steam chamber 68 about the liquid injector 50 upstream of the liquid discharge orifices 54 into which steam from the steam inlet 21 is directed.
- the orifice ring 65 in this case is disposed within the annular steam wall 64 and has an axial length of about twice the width of the wall 64 such that a portion extends a length upstream of the annular steam wall 64 .
- a downstream end section of the liquid injector 50 is formed with external flats 70 across the liquid discharge orifices 54 and angled or rounded corners 71 connecting the flats 70 .
- the orifice ring 65 has a generally rectangular internal opening with opposing sides formed with recesses 74 supporting the corners 71 of the liquid injector 50 and with rounded corners 75 adjacent the liquid injector flats 70 for defining the steam discharge orifices 66 between the flats 70 and rounded corners 75 in aligned relation to liquid discharge orifices 54 .
- the steam discharge orifices 66 defined by the steam orifice ring 65 and liquid injector flats 70 in this case are aligned with and partially overlap each liquid injector discharge orifice 54 .
- the downstream end of the steam orifice ring 65 is centered over or slightly upstream of the liquid discharge orifices 54 .
- the concentrating steam discharge orifices 66 are aligned precisely with the liquid discharge orifices 54 of the liquid injector 50 , they will direct steam over liquid discharge orifices 54 for direct shearing and atomizing the liquid stream at the precise location where the liquid hydrocarbon exits the liquid injector 50 . Since all of the energy of the steam is focused at that location, the liquid can be atomized into very fine liquid particles for transmission to the spray tip 25 . Since the concentrating steam orifices 66 are relatively small, the steam inlet passage 36 a may be relatively large, such as one half the diameter or greater than the steam chamber, for achieving the desired velocity of steam through the orifices 66 .
- the droplet size of the atomized liquid further can be varied by changing the area of the steam orifices 66 .
- the concentrating steam discharge orifices 66 may be enlarged such as by changing the size of the injector flats 70 in relation to the internal opening of the orifice ring 65 .
- auxiliary steam discharge orifices 66 a may be provided about the outer perimeter of the steam orifice ring 65 by forming the outer perimeter of the ring 65 with flats 80 , as depicted in FIG. 3 .
- the flats 80 are disposed radially outwardly of the corners 71 of the liquid injector 50 so as to space the auxiliary steam discharge orifices 66 a circumferentially between the inner steam discharge orifices 66 .
- the steam orifice ring 65 preferably is welded to the corners 71 of the liquid injector 50 for maintaining proper orientation of the ring 65 with respect to the injector 50 . This further enables easy assembly of the liquid injector 50 and steam orifice ring 65 or a subassembly into the tubular member 17 of the nozzle body and the central opening of the steam chamber wall 64 .
- the downstream end 58 of the liquid injector 50 and the steam orifice ring 65 can be mounted in the central opening of the steam chamber wall 64 during assembly with a slip fit which will allow the injector 50 and orifice ring 65 assembly to thermally expand or contract without restriction.
- the end 58 of the liquid injector 50 protruding through the steam orifice ring 65 and chamber wall 64 in this case is rounded for facilitating direction of the atomized liquid downstream into the barrel zone 24 of the nozzle body.
- the more efficient pressurized air atomization of the liquid hydrocarbon further is effective for breaking up even heavier crude oils, such as resids and petroleum bottoms, without plugging or clogging of the nozzle components.
- the spray nozzle assembly still has a very simple and durable design which lends itself to economical manufacture and reliable usage.

Description
- This patent application is a divisional of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/023,472, filed Mar. 21, 2016, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/880,320, filed Sep. 20, 2013, both of which are incorporated by reference.
- The present invention relates generally to liquid spray nozzles, and more particularly, to spray nozzle assemblies particularly adapted for atomizing and spraying a liquid feed to a fluidized catalytic cracking riser reactor.
- A spray nozzle assembly of the foregoing type is shown and described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,921,472, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference. Such spray nozzle assemblies typically include a nozzle body which defines a mixing chamber into which a liquid hydrocarbon and pressurized gas, such as steam, are introduced and within which the liquid hydrocarbon is atomized. To enhance liquid atomization within the mixing chamber, an impingement pin extends into the chamber and defines liquid impingement surface on the center line of the mixing chamber in diametrically opposed relation to the liquid inlet against which a pressurized liquid stream impinges and is transversely dispersed and across which pressurized steam from a gas inlet is directed for further interaction and shearing of the liquid into fine droplets. The atomized liquid within the mixing chamber is directed under the force of the pressurized steam through an elongated tubular barrel, commonly disposed within a wall of the catalytic reactor riser, for discharge from a spray tip at a downstream end thereof within the riser. Notwithstanding passage through the elongated tubular barrel the liquid must discharge as a very fine liquid particle spray for optimum performance. To efficiently breakup and transmit the liquid hydrocarbon, the steam cross flow must be at a high volume and pressure, approximately 110 psi, and the liquid pressure must be kept at approximately the same or greater pressure.
- In such spray nozzle assemblies, the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream must pass through half the diameter of the mixing chamber before it impacts the impingement pin. Particularly in spray nozzle assemblies with relatively large diameter mixing chambers, such as those having a mixing chamber of four inches and more in diameter, there can be a tendency for the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream introduced into the mixing chamber to only partially impact the impingement surface of the impingement pin. The reason for this is that the liquid flow stream must pass a significant distance through the mixing chamber where it is subjected to a heavy cross flow of steam before impacting the impingement surface. This tends to cause a shift in the liquid flow stream away from the center of the impingement surface, the magnitude of which is dependent upon the velocities of the pressurized steam and liquid flow streams for a particular setup. The shift prevents a portion of the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream from being shattered against the impingement pin, resulting in a significant increase in droplet size for a portion of the spray volume that adversely affects the spray performance. In order to overcome such shift in the liquid flow stream introduced into the mixing chamber, heretofore it has been necessary to increase the liquid pressure even more to overcome the effect of the steam cross flow. This necessitates the need for larger and higher pressure process pumps that are more expensive to operate and more susceptible to breakdowns. On the other hand, operation of such spray nozzles at lower pressures significantly effects spray performance and can create clogging, particularly when spraying heavier crude oils such as resids and petroleum bottoms.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a liquid hydrocarbon spray nozzle assembly that is adapted for more effective and finer liquid atomization and improved spray performance in catalytic cracking reactors.
- Another object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly as characterized above that can be efficiently operated at lower liquid pressures, nearly half that of conventional catalytic cracking spray nozzle assemblies, with lesser expensive processing equipment.
- A further object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly of the foregoing type in which the liquid hydrocarbon flow stream introduced into the mixing chamber of the spray nozzle body is not adversely effected by the pressurized steam prior to engaging an impingement surface that shatters and transversely directs the liquid within a mixing zone.
- Still another object to provide a spray nozzle assembly of the above kind that reduces the amount of steam necessary for effective liquid atomization.
- Yet a further object is to provide a spray nozzle assembly of such type that is effective for efficiently atomizing relatively heavy crude oils, such as resids and petroleum bottoms, without clogging or plugging of the spray nozzle components.
- Another object is to provide such a spray nozzle assembly that has a relatively simple and durable design which lends itself to economical manufacture.
- Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent upon reading the following detailed description and upon reference to the drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic depiction of a spray nozzle assembly in accordance with the present invention mounted within the wall of a riser of a catalytic cracking reactor; -
FIG. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal section of the spray nozzle assembly shown inFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 is an enlarged transverse section taken in the plane of line 3-3 inFIG. 2 ; -
FIG. 4 is an enlarged perspective of an upstream end of the illustrated spray nozzle assembly; and -
FIG. 5 is a side view of the liquid injector and associated steam orifice ring subassembly of the illustrated spray nozzle assembly. - While the invention is susceptible of various modifications and alternative constructions, a certain illustrative embodiment thereof has been shown in the drawings and will be described below in detail. It should be understood, however, that there is no intention to limit the invention to the specific form disclosed, but on the contrary, the intention is to cover all modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the invention. In that regard, while the illustrated spray nozzle assembly is particularly effective for atomizing and spraying liquid hydrocarbons in catalytic cracking systems, it will be understood that the utility of the nozzle assembly is not limited to that usage.
- Referring now more particularly to the drawings there is shown and illustrative
spray nozzle assembly 10 in accordance with the invention mounted in a conventional manner in an insulated wall 11 (shown in phantom) of a riser of a fluidized catalytic reactor. Thespray nozzle assembly 10 is supported in atubular sleeve 12 fixed within thewall 11 at an acute angle to the vertical for discharging atomized liquid hydrocarbon upwardly into the riser. Thetubular sleeve 12 in this case has an outwardly extendingflange 14 to which asupport flange 15 fixed to thespray nozzle assembly 10 may be secured. - The illustrated
spray nozzle assembly 10, as best depicted inFIG. 2 , basically comprises a nozzle body in the form of anelongated tubular member 17 that defines a mixingzone 20 adjacent an upstream end having apressurized steam inlet 21 and aliquid hydrocarbon inlet 22 disposed on an outer side of thewall 11 of the riser and an elongatedbarrel extension zone 24 communicating with the mixingzone 20 disposed in and extending downstream through thenozzle support sleeve 12 andriser wall 11. Aspray tip 25 having one ormore discharge orifices 26 is supported at a downstream end of thetubular member 17 within the riser for discharging and directing the atomized liquid spray. Thetubular member 17 may be one or more lengths of pipe, such asSchedule 80 steel pipe, having an internal diameter of between about 2 to 8 inches. - In accordance with the invention, the spray nozzle assembly is operable for atomizing liquid hydrocarbon into a finer liquid particle discharge for more efficient spray performance while operating at significantly lower liquid pressures. To this end, the
liquid hydrocarbon inlet 22 is disposed at an upstream end of the nozzlebody tubular member 17 and thesteam inlet 21 communicates with through a side wall of thetubular member 17. In the illustrated embodiment, thesteam inlet 21 includes a fitting 30 having a mountingclamp 31 for securement to asupply line 32 coupled to a steam or other gas supply and a downstream end with acounter bore section 34 that fits within anopening 35 of thetubular member 17, which in this case is formed with an inwardly tapered conical side wall for facilitating securement of the fitting 30 to thetubular member 17 by an appropriate annular weldment. The stem inlet fitting 30 has acentral flow passageway 36 with a steaminlet passage section 36 a communicating through thetubular member 17. - The
liquid inlet 22, like thesteam inlet 21, includes a fitting 40 having a mountingflange 41 for securement to a liquidhydrocarbon supply line 42 coupled to a suitable liquid hydrocarbon supply and a downstreamcylindrical section 44 for securement to an upstream axial end of thetubular member 17. The ends of the liquid inlet fitting 40 and thetubular member 17 are chamfered for facilitating securement by a weldment. The liquid inlet fitting 22 includes anorifice member 45 for defining aliquid inlet passage 46 of predetermined diameter through which the feed liquid is accelerated. Theorifice member 45 in this instance has a conical entry section for channeling the pressurized liquid flow stream into and through theorifice member passage 46. - In carrying out this embodiment, the
liquid inlet 22 includes an elongated closedend liquid injector 50 extending into the mixingzone 20 along acentral axis 51 thereof, which has aliquid extension passageway 52 communicating between theorifice member 45 and a plurality ofdischarge orifices 54 adjacent a downstream end of theextension passageway 52 which transversely direct liquid into the mixingzone 20 in perpendicular relation to thecentral axis 51. Theliquid injector 50 in this case is a separate tubular member having a closed downstream end fixedly mounted with an upstream end in abutting relation to a downstream end of theliquid orifice member 45. Theliquid injector 50 has an upstream outwardly extendingannular flange 55 that is clamped between a shoulder defined by anannular end 38 of the fitting 40 and the downstream end of theorifice member 45, which is threadedly mounted within the fitting 40. It will be understood that alternatively theorifice member 45 and theliquid injector 50 could be made as a single part. In this instance, thecentral extension passageway 52 of theliquid injector 50 has anupstream passage section 52 a larger in diameter than theorifice member passageway 46 for allowing unimpeded flow of liquid hydrocarbon into theinjector 50, which then is channeled into a smallerdownstream passage section 52 b. - In further keeping with this embodiment, the
liquid injector 50 has a closed downstreamterminal end 58 with an “x” configuration of the liquid discharge orifices 54. The discharge orifices 54 in this case are defined by cylindrical passages that extend radially outwardly in perpendicular relation to thecentral axis 51 and define a flatinternal impingement surface 60 perpendicular to thecentral axis 51 against which pressurized liquid hydrocarbon communicating through theextension passageway 52 impinges and is transversely directed and spread out into the mixingzone 20. - In further carrying out this embodiment, an
annular steam wall 64 andorifice ring 65 are disposed within thetubular member 17 adjacent a downstream end of theliquid injector 50, which supports theliquid injector 50 and defines a plurality of concentratingsteam discharge orifices 66 at the specific locations of eachinjector discharge orifice 54 for causing steam to directly interact with and atomize the liquid flow streams discharging from theliquid injector 50. Theannular steam wall 64 in this case is a plate like wall member welded within thetubular body member 17 for defining anannular steam chamber 68 about theliquid injector 50 upstream of theliquid discharge orifices 54 into which steam from thesteam inlet 21 is directed. Theorifice ring 65 in this case is disposed within theannular steam wall 64 and has an axial length of about twice the width of thewall 64 such that a portion extends a length upstream of theannular steam wall 64. - For defining the concentrating
steam discharge orifices 66, a downstream end section of theliquid injector 50 is formed withexternal flats 70 across theliquid discharge orifices 54 and angled orrounded corners 71 connecting theflats 70. Theorifice ring 65 has a generally rectangular internal opening with opposing sides formed withrecesses 74 supporting thecorners 71 of theliquid injector 50 and withrounded corners 75 adjacent theliquid injector flats 70 for defining thesteam discharge orifices 66 between theflats 70 androunded corners 75 in aligned relation to liquid discharge orifices 54. The steam dischargeorifices 66 defined by thesteam orifice ring 65 andliquid injector flats 70 in this case are aligned with and partially overlap each liquidinjector discharge orifice 54. Preferably, the downstream end of thesteam orifice ring 65 is centered over or slightly upstream of the liquid discharge orifices 54. - As can be seen, since the concentrating
steam discharge orifices 66 are aligned precisely with theliquid discharge orifices 54 of theliquid injector 50, they will direct steam overliquid discharge orifices 54 for direct shearing and atomizing the liquid stream at the precise location where the liquid hydrocarbon exits theliquid injector 50. Since all of the energy of the steam is focused at that location, the liquid can be atomized into very fine liquid particles for transmission to thespray tip 25. Since the concentratingsteam orifices 66 are relatively small, thesteam inlet passage 36 a may be relatively large, such as one half the diameter or greater than the steam chamber, for achieving the desired velocity of steam through theorifices 66. - It has been found that the droplet size of the atomized liquid further can be varied by changing the area of the steam orifices 66. For effecting smaller atomized liquid droplets, the concentrating
steam discharge orifices 66 may be enlarged such as by changing the size of theinjector flats 70 in relation to the internal opening of theorifice ring 65. In addition, auxiliarysteam discharge orifices 66 a may be provided about the outer perimeter of thesteam orifice ring 65 by forming the outer perimeter of thering 65 withflats 80, as depicted inFIG. 3 . Preferably, theflats 80 are disposed radially outwardly of thecorners 71 of theliquid injector 50 so as to space the auxiliarysteam discharge orifices 66 a circumferentially between the innersteam discharge orifices 66. - The
steam orifice ring 65 preferably is welded to thecorners 71 of theliquid injector 50 for maintaining proper orientation of thering 65 with respect to theinjector 50. This further enables easy assembly of theliquid injector 50 andsteam orifice ring 65 or a subassembly into thetubular member 17 of the nozzle body and the central opening of thesteam chamber wall 64. Thedownstream end 58 of theliquid injector 50 and thesteam orifice ring 65 can be mounted in the central opening of thesteam chamber wall 64 during assembly with a slip fit which will allow theinjector 50 andorifice ring 65 assembly to thermally expand or contract without restriction. Theend 58 of theliquid injector 50 protruding through thesteam orifice ring 65 andchamber wall 64 in this case is rounded for facilitating direction of the atomized liquid downstream into thebarrel zone 24 of the nozzle body. - In operation, it will be seen that steam directed into the
steam inlet 21 will enter thesteam chamber 68 defined upstream of thesteam chamber wall 64 and will be directed through the four circumferentially spaced concentratingsteam discharge orifices 66 at the precise location of the liquid injector dischargeorifices 54 for enhanced interaction and atomization of liquid discharging from theliquid injector 50 following impingement upon theinternal impingement surface 60 of theliquid injector 50. The resulting increased atomization efficiency enables the spray nozzle assembly to be operated at liquid pressures as low as 60 psi, or nearly half that the pressure requirements of conventional catalytic cracking spray nozzle assemblies. The focused direction of steam from theorifice ring 65 also reduces the quantity of steam necessary for effective atomization. The more efficient pressurized air atomization of the liquid hydrocarbon further is effective for breaking up even heavier crude oils, such as resids and petroleum bottoms, without plugging or clogging of the nozzle components. Yet the spray nozzle assembly still has a very simple and durable design which lends itself to economical manufacture and reliable usage.
