Y., a corporation of Delaware Suhstituted for applicationwSerial No. 121,239, October 14, 1949. This application July.14,-.:1-953,Serial/Nm temperature in vaporgenerating units. and` it has .special reference to an accomplishmentof .such .control through-a novel useof overre `airlin thefuel combustion chamber of the unit.
Broadly stated, the object of this invention .is` to control the superheated steam temperature by.utilizing secondary air streams to .direct either more .or less of. the. fuel combustion gases. either over or 4away from .thelsuperheater heating surface. l l i A more specific object is to adapt theforegoing novel form of control to A type` boilers wherein a superheater' is included in one `of two main boiler tube banks that incline downwardly and outwardly from a central upper drum and Whereinthe fuelis fired acombustion chamber beneath and betweensaid .boiler tube banks.
Another object is to apply ythesuperheat control means of this invention to the.` foregoing andfother boilers when fired by fuels such'as natural'gas or coal which require overre air .to enhancethe eiiiciency of 'thecombustion process.
Additional 'objects and advantages'will become apparent from the following description of `an illustrative tem# taken in `conjunction Vwith the accom-` bodirnent `when panying-drawing wherein:
Fig# 1 represents an-elevational cross- 'section of an A type steam generatingunit. taken on4 lin`ef1-1 of Fig. 2 and illustrating one preferred-mannerin which'the invention may be practicedand Fig. 2 is a plan section showing -a portion of `the ap#` paratus of Fig. .l as viewed online 2 2 -oftthatgurer Referring to the drawing; the A typesteam `generating unit there. represented comprises van `upperdrum 10 positioned centrally above two horizontally spaced i lower .drums 12 Vand .14 .and respectively interconnected therewith throughthe medium of leftand right tube .banks 13 `and 15. Steam generated in these :banks fpasses. from drum 10 through. conduitwl s to a superheaterl18 and leaves `the superheaterbywayof outlet 19.
In the illustrative-formushown, thissuperheater 1S is positionedin the left `bank-13 of boiler tubes; it is made up of hairpin-shaped `tube elementsltl disposed transversely ofzthefboiler tubes in Vsaid `bank .13; .and steam from conduit 16 enters inlettheaderzl,` thence passes through tube elements20 into intermediate header 22 and from this intermediate header passes through other. tube elements 20 'to outlet `header 23` and thence to outlet 19.
This steam generator of Figs. 1-2 may `be liredin any suitable manner such as by means of burners 25 mounted in an end wall 26 of the combustion chamber 27 formed beneath and between the left .and right'tubebanks 13 and 15 by the represented setting structure.' and the conventional casing structure `24 `which-surrounds the boiler banks.
Inthe illustrativel form shown each of these burners 25 consists of a centrally located fuelnozzle 29 through which natural gas or othersuitable fuelis admitted into the combustion chamber.:
Air for supportingcombustion also enters the combustion chamber 27 in surrounding relation to `the incoming fuel under the direction of `outer casing members 30. In`
the burner arrangement shown this airis made available to theburners by means `of awind box 31 `fed in any suitable manner as through a supply duct 32. This air may be under a small pressure created bya forced draft fan lice (notshown) orit mayibe broughtinto-the furnaceunder'. action of either natural draft or anrinduceddraft` the fan (.not shown) .connected withllue outlets. 34e-35.
The combustion ,gases resulting .from 'theburning offuel in chamber27 pass upwardly through boiler-tube banks 13.a'ndy 15 .and thence. out-.of the. boiler casing 24- by wayof .saidue outlets 34h-3,5.l .Theheat carriedv by these combustiongases .is given up to boiler heating.. surface 13-15 .as well as to thesuperheater surface 2i);l
but only the gases..passingthrough.boilerbank .13..are
instrumental in .imparting lto the superheater 13 heatfor'.
superheating. the steam-,generated inthe boiler.
it is well known. thatcertain fuels such `as ,natural gas requlre considerable excess airforelicient `combats-.-
tion, andI have therefore found it desirable.` to provide such excess .air through the medium of overtre jets. t. .In
the illustrative apparatus ,shown such jets are. represented at 37 and 38.
Air under pressure is .discharged through said jets. 37-33 `to provide penetration throughthegas mass in4 the combustion chamber and. to set up turbulence. which will bring the.`;air intomoreintimate contact with. the fuel and thereby speed up, theV `combustion process L audimake same more complete.
ln accordance withthe invention -air under thezrequired pressure "is supplied to the left set ofjets37 by f a fan 40 whose inlet is connected with .wind box 31rvia conduit 41 and. whoseoutlet leads to header .42.in communication with the .jets ,3'7g`and similarly air underthe required pressure is `supplied to the-right set of jets-38.
by a fan..44-whose. inletis connected with .wind .box 31` via conduit .45 and..whose .outlet leads to headery 46- in stant superheattemperature be provided .for-most efficientl operation of ,supplied .turbines landccertain. .other steami- :It is alsoknownthat varying-load. conditions on annA type steam .generator suchas here consuming` apparatus.
shown will` result.'inundesirable-variation in the .tem-
perature` of .the superheatedsteam .obtained `at outlet .19..
Thus, in the. absence -of .superheat control means low generator .will -be .accompanied steamv loadings U.on the by lowrsuperheat temperatures; mtermediate loadings on the generator .will -beacco'mpanied by intermediate .super-s heat temperatures; .andthlgh steam` loadings. on. the-genev erator will be accompanied by high superheat temperature.
In accordancetwith thisinvention it becomes. possible simply, readily -and .reliably to keep the .temperature of.
19.` constant through the entire range of loadings on the represented steam superheated steam. leaving outlet generator merely 4'by adjusting the relative .velocities of the overre `air issuing -fro'mtleft jets 37 and from right jets 38. In the. illustrative arrangement `shown such adjustment is accomplished` throughcontrol. of theoperating speeds of .left` and `right fans 40 and .44.
With thesetwo fans operating at substantially the same speed the total combustion gases liberated in the fur.
nace chamber 27 will divide substantially equallyin flowing through` left boiler tube bank 13 .and dischargeoutlets 34 and in flowingthrough right boiler tube bank 15 and dischargeoutlet 35. Under this condition substantially half of said total `gases will beinstrumental `in imparting heat to the superheater y1'8.
When however .by reason` of reduction in steam load or other cause the temperature` ofthe steam leaving superheater outlet `19 falls below` `the desired value, same maybe correctively raised either by increasing the speed of right fan44 or` decreasing the speed of` left fan `40.`
The effect in either'instance will be to flow a greater proportion of the total combustion `gases through lefty In. this y boiler tube bank 13 andl over superheater .18. way the superheated steam` temperature will be; correctively raised.
Likewise ifv byreason of increase in steam .load or for other cause the-.superheated steam..temperature .rises above thedesiredtv'alue, same may be .correctively lowered` either by increasing the speed of left fan 40-or by cutting down the speed of right fan-.44. .In either in- Paftented Nov. V30,1954
stance the effect will be to cause a greater proportion of the total combustion gases to flow through right boiler'V tube bank with consequent reduction in the rate at which heat is imparted to the superheater, 18. In this way the superheated steam temperature will be cor-' rectively lowered.
Obviously the required adjustment of speed control means 50-51 may be accomplished either manually or automatically. In the event of automatic control there can be used a conventional hookup which is actuated by the temperature of the steam leaving superheater outlet 19. Inasmuch as such automatic control facilities are well known no attempt to represent same is here made.
Moreover, adjustment in the velocity of the air streams issuing from jets 37 and 38 may be effected by running the fans 40 and 44 at constant speed and interposing a damper device in the outlet of each fan. In Fig. l such damper devices are indicated at 53 and 54.
From the foregoing it will be seen that this invention has provided novel means for effecting superheat control through the use of overfire air in vapor generators typified by the A type steam generating unit here shown and described. It will be understood however that the apparatus represented for practicing the invention is illustrative rather than restrictive and that other equivalent means for accomplishing the same or a similar purpose may be substituted without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.
This application is a substitution of application Serial No. 121,239 filed October 14, 1949.
