6 Claims. (Cl. 158-109) This invention relates generally to an apparatus for partial oxidation, synthesis gas generation and is particularly applicable to the generation of carbon monoxide and hydrogen by the partial combustion of a gaseous hydrocarbon with oxygen-enriched air or substantially pure oxygen.
Synthesis gas mixtures consisting essentially of carbon monoxide and hydrogen are important commercially as highly preheated state to reduce the oxygen requirements.
and give a maximum yield of the desired product gas.
For one or more of the foregoing reasons, the prior art burners are characterized by failure of burner elements,
comings of the prior art structures, is simple in construction and is economical in operation. It is another object of invention to provide an improved burner structure which is adaptable for use with various reactants.
Still another object of invention is to provide animprov ed burner structure which is particularly suitable for replacement of burner elements without the sacrifice of a source of hydrogen for hydrogenation reactions and as, I
a source of feed gas for the synthesis of hydrocarbons, oxygen-containing organic compounds, or ammonia.
The partial combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel with oxygen-enriched air or with relatively pure oxygen to produce carbon monoxide and hydrogen presents unique problems not encountered normally in the burner art. It is necessary, for example, to effect very rapid and complete mixing of the reactants, as well as to take special precautions to protect the burner or mixer from overheating.
Because of the reactivity of oxygen with the metal from which a suitable burner may be fabricated, it is extremely important to prevent the burner elements from reaching those temperatures at which their rapid oxidation takes place. In this connection, it is essential that the reaction between the hydrocarbon and oxygen take place entirely outside the burner proper and that localized concentration of combustible mixtures at or near the surfaces of the burner elements is prevented. Even though the reaction takes place beyond the point of discharge from the burner, the burner elements are subjected to heating by radiation from it.
Inadequate mixing results in such concentrations of oxygen in localized areas that relatively complete combustion of a portion of the fuel takes place in these areas, re-
leasing large quantities of heat. In addition, regardless of the type of burner construction employed, eddies of the reactants form combustible mixtures near the burner surfaces. Unless these surfaces are maintained at a temperature below the ignition temperature of the mixtures, they act as flame holders, with the ensuing combustion along the surfaces soon causing overheating and failure of the burner.
Another problem peculiar to this reaction is the tendeney for free carbon to form either on the burner or within the reaction zone, due primarily to inadequate mixing of the gases, leading to burner failure, since formation of carbon on the surface of the burner interferes with the mixing of the gases and causes localized concentrations of oxygen, with resulting overheating of burner elements following its combustion.
With conventional burners, it has been found necessary to use a quantity of oxygen in excess of the theoretical t'o prevent carbon formation. This often causes undesirably high reaction temperatures and increases the problem of cooling the burner. The problem is further aggravated by the fact that in the partial combustion of gases, itis desirable to charge the reactant gases to the b ruerin t taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein Fig. 1 is a general illustration of a burner assembly in position;
Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic longitudinal cross secton through the burner tip;
Fig. 3 is a partly diagrammatic longitudinal cross section through the expansion joint of the burner assembly 1 of Fig. 1 taken along line 3-3 of Fig. 6.
Fig. 4 is a cross section through the vburner tip along the line 44 of Fig. 2, without the cooling jacket and showing the replaceable inner conduit in operative position;
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4 without the cooling jacket and showing the position of the inner conduit durprior to its locking in ing the assembly of the burner and operative position;
Fig. 6 is an end viewof Fig. 1 looking toward the expansion joint and showing the orientation of the inner conduit whenin operative position;
Fig. 7 is an end view similar to Fig. 6 during assembly; I
and
cross section the assembly of Figs. 2 and 3.
The apparatus of the present invention contemplate the solution to the problem of the lengthy shut-downs of gas generators while burners are being replaced because of the deterioration of burner tips due to the loss of' metal or other burner failure.
Referring to the figures in the drawings, in Figure 1, the burner assembly is indicated generally at A, with the burner tip at B, the expansion joint assembly at C, the mounting flange at D, the hydrocarbon fuel, e.g., natural gas, inlet at E. and the oxygen inlet at F.
In Figure 2, the burner assembly at B is shown in cross section, with the inner conduit, providing the oxygen or anjenriched mixture of oxygen, indicated at 10,
with an outlet therefore at 11 and with diametrically spacedloclringlugs indicated at 12, 12 (see also Figs. 4 and 5). An outer conduit 13, ending in an orifice 14,
is locked in spaced relationship with the inner conduit 10 to define an annular passage indicated at 15 which r leadsto the orifice at 14. Theorifice 14 is surrounded 1 by a cooling jacket indicated at 16, with the arrows in-:

Fig. 8 is a view parallel to that in Fig. 1 illustrating in 3 dicating the direction of circulation of the cooling me-. dium therethrough. The outer conduit 13 carries complementary locking lugs indicated at 17,17 and 18, 18,

It has been determined that the wide-rangeofi tern;
peratul es to which burners of the type disclosed are; ex-
posed contribute greatly to their rapid deterioratiomj not only with respect to metalerosion, but because offthe strains; set up asa result of repeated expansion; and'contract-ion leadingto failure. at the points offjuncture'of the burnerparts. The disclosed structure is found to be. free from the adverse effects of relative expansion iand ontraction f; h several par s because of? the use. ofan expansion. joint.
.=Figure. 3 is an enlarged and. partially sectional view, taken through the line 33 of Figure-'6; showing the expansion joint; assembly indicated at C. This assembly comprises locking flanges .20 and Zlfixed respectively to the outerconduit 13 and inner conduit-110: Th'eFex-. pan'sion joint, includes the. bellows at 22, which, i'ssup- 24z'and 25. The expansion joint, ile, bellows and casing,

As show n in Figs. 4 and 5,the locking-lugs are ap proximately- .45 in circumferential extent and may vary to. a maximum of 90.. However, the smaller 'arc is I desirable in order to prevent any shadow effect on the flow of the reactant in the outer. annular conduit, due to .the restriction of'the lugs.
Thus, even though burner from temperature and corrosive influences ,is present under normal burner operating conditions,-the most rapid deterioration. of burner tip metal may be'confined tothe- 1 opening of; the inner.;,conduit by feeding the oxygen or oxygenrenrichedair throughit, so that easily replaceabl nozzles which protect other tip surfaces fromoxygfin and,
