United States Patent 3,345,051 COKE OVEN STRUCTURE AND METHOD OF HEATING Joseph Van Ackeren, Pittsburgh, Pa., assignor to Koppers Company, Inc., a corporation of Delaware Filed Mar. 11, 1964, Ser. No. 351,085 5 Claims. (Cl. 26315) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method and apparatus for simultaneously burning the high and low burners in a hairpin flue type regenerative coke oven. The flue base portion has a pair of gas nozzles connected to a common gas gun conduit-and simultaneously supplied with rich fuel gas. One of the nozzles is positioned in a vertical duct that has a top opening located above the flue base portion. A passageway in the common division wall connects the lower portion of the vertical duct with the adjacent flue so that a portion of the waste gas from the adjacent flue flows through the passageway, mixes with and dilutes the rich fuel gas adjacent the nozzle. The diluted fuel gas is conveyed upwardly through the vertical duct to the top opening. The rich fuel gas from the other nozzle burns at a location adjacent the flue base portion and the diluted fuel gas burns at a location above the flue base portion to uniformly heat the coking chamber by simultaneous burning at diiferent elevations in the flue.
This invention relates to improvements in a regenerative coke oven and more particularly to a hairpin flued regenerative coke oven with high and low burners in each flue supplied with fuel gas from a common gas gun conduit.
In the design and construction of regenerative horizontal coking retort ovens one of the primary objectives in recent years has been to increase oven capacity without adversely alfecting the quality of the coke produced therein. To attain this objective the height of the coking chamber has increased and high and low burners are utilized in the flame flue to provide heat for the coking chambers. The high and low burners are arranged to distribute the heat uniformly through the heating walls to the coal in the coking chambers of increased height.
In arrangements where the high burner gas ports are spaced upwardly from the base of the flue and both the high and low burners are burned simultaneously the riser passages that convey the fuel gas'to the high burners frequently clog with a carbonaceous material. The rich fuel gas as it is conveyed through the high level riser passages is subjected to elevated temperatures from the heat generated by the burning of the fuel gas in the low burner. This elevated temperature causes a thermal decomposition of the rich fuel gas in the passages and deposits a carbonaceous residuum on the riser passage walls. This carbonaceous residuum causes a serious operating problem. If the riser passages become clogged, the upper or high level burners become inoperative and cannot be burned out with air.
It has been discovered by admixing with the fuel gas a diluent gas such as waste gas that it is now possible to subject the diluted fuel gas to very high temperatures without substantial thermal decomposition of the fuel gas constituent and without deposits of a carbonaceous residuum on the walls of the riser passages.
By admixing the waste gas from the companion flue with the rich fuel gas at a location adjacent the base of the vertical duct or passageway, it is now possible to simultaneously burn the high and low burners in the flame flue and obtain a more uniform heat distribution through the walls of the flue to the coal in the adjacent coking chambers.
Briefly, the invention is described in conjunction with a hairpin type coke oven chamber wherein the gas nozzles for the high and low burners are connected to the same gas gun so that fuel gas is supplied simultaneously to both nozzles. The gas nozzles are located in the base or floor of the flue and a passageway is provided in the base of the flue for the combustion air. The fuel gas from the low level burner is admixed with the combustion air adjacent the base of the flue and is ignited and burns adjacent the base of the flue to supply heat to the lower portion of the flue heating Walls. Surrounding the high level gas nozzle and joined to the division wall is a vertical semi-elliptically shaped duct or passageway that conveys the fuel gas upwardly in the flue. The vertical duct terminates at a location substantially above the base or floor of the flue. This upper terminus of the duct, for convenience, will be referred to as the high burner since the rich fuel gas conveyed through the duct is admixed with the combustion air at the upper terminus and there ignites and burns to supply heat for the upper portion of the flue heating walls. The division wall forming a part of the duct has a horizontal passageway therethrough that connects the adjacent flue therewith. Waste gas is drawn from the base of the companion adjacent flue and is admixed with the rich fuel gas at the base of the vertical duct and conveyed upwardly through the vertical duct to the high burner. Admixing the waste gas with the rich fuel gas at the base of the duct, so that a diluted fuel gas is conveyed through the duct, minimizes the thermal decomposition of the fuel gas as it is conveyed to the high burner. With this arrangement it is now possible to simultaneously burn the high and low burners without the thermal decomposition of the fuel gas in the semi-elliptically shaped vertical duct.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a coke oven structure wherein both the high and low level burners burn simultaneously.
Another object of this invention is to provide a coke oven structure of the hairpin type flued oven wherein the high and low level gas nozzles for each flue are common to the same gas gun.
Still another object of this invention is to provide a coke oven structure of the hairpin type wherein waste gas is admixed with the rich fuel gas in the lower portion of a vertical duct and conveyed as an admixture upwardly therethrough for combustion thereabove.
In the accompanying drawings forming :a part of this specification, there is shown for purposes of illustration a hairpin flue type oven supplied with fuel gas by a plurality of gas gun conduits. It is not intended that this invention be limited in its application to the specific type of oven illustrated in the drawings. It is intended that this invention be applicable to other regenerative coking retort ovens that employ both high and low burners in each flame flue.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a diagrammatic vertical section taken longitudinally of the oven battery and transversely to the longitudinal axis of the coking chambers illustrating the pairs of gas gun conduits associated with each row of flues.
FIGURE 2 is a diagrammatic vertical section taken along the line 22 in FIGURE 1 and transversely of the coke oven battery and parallel to the longitudinal axis of the coking chambers illustrating the hairpin flue arrangement with the recirculation ducts for the waste gas from a vertical duct in one of the flues to the vertical duct in the adjacent companion flue.
FIGURE 3 is a diagrammatic horizontal section taken along the line 3-3 in FIGURE 2 illustrating in detail the recirculation duct between adjacent flues and the relative position of the gas nozzles for the high and low level burners.
FIGURE 4 is a view similar to FIGURE 2 and illustrating another embodiment of this invention wherein the gas nozzles for the high and low burners are positioned at different levels.
FIGURE 5 is a view in section taken along the line 5-5 in FIGURE 4 and illustrating the passageways connecting the vertical ducts with the companion flue.
Referring to the drawings and particularly to FIG- URES 1-3, the numeral generally designates a regenerative coke oven battery of the hairpin design that includes a plurality of coking chambers 12 extending transversely thereof. Heat is supplied to the coking chambers 12 from adjacent heating chambers or flues through heating walls 14. The heating walls 14 have a plurality of transverse division walls 15 therebetween to form a series of vertical flues which serve as heating chambers disposed in longitudinal rows parallel to the longitudinal axis of the coking chambers 12. FIGURE 1 illustrates several rows of vertical flame flues designated 16, 18 and 20 with coking chambers 12 therebetween. A portion of the row of vertical flame flues 16 is illustrated in FIGURE 2 which is a view in vertical section taken along the line 22 in FIGURE 1. The row 16 includes a plurality of interconnected pairs or companion flues designated 22 and 24. The flues are separated from each other by division walls 15. A passageway 26 adjacent the upper portion of the oven 10 extends through the division wall 15 and connects the companion vertical flues 22 and 24 for circulation of the gases therebetween, as is well known in the hairpin type flued oven.
Positioned below the flues 22 and 24 there are regenerator chambers 30 and 32 through which combustion air is heated and circulated to the on flues and waste gas is removed from the off flue in a manner similar to that disclosed in US. Patent No. 2,845,385 to Joseph Van Ackeren, entitled Coke Oven Battery. A passageway 28 extends through the base of flue 22 connecting the regenerator chamber 30 to flue 22. Passageway 34 similarly connects flue 24 with regenerator chamber 32. Thus when flue 22 is the on or flame flue, combustion air flows through regenerator chamber 30, is heated, and then flows through passageway 28 into the flue 22 where it is admixed with the fuel gas for combustion therein. The waste gas flows from the on or flame flue 22 through passageway 26 in dividing wall 15 to the off flue 24. The hot waste gas flows downwardly through the off flue 24 through passageway 34 and into regenerator chamber 32.
Pairs of horizontally extending gas gun conduits 36 and 38 are arranged within the furnace brickwork parallel to the rows of flues 16, 18 and 20 (FIG. 1) and on opposite sides thereof. The gas gun conduit 36 is connected to gas nozzles 40 and 42 in all flues 24 through conduits 44 and 46 (FIGS. 2 and 3). Gas gun conduit 38 is connected to gas nozzles 48 and 50 in all flues 22 by means of conduits 52 and 54. With this arrangement gas gun conduits designated by the numeral 36 are arranged to supply fuel gas to both the gas nozzles 40 and 42 for the high and low burners in all of the flues 24 in the respective rows 16, 18 and 20. Similarly, gas gun conduits 38 are arranged to supply fuel gas to the gas nozzles 48 and 50 in all of the flues 22 in the respective rows 16, 18 and 20. Thus, a single gas gun conduit supplies fuel gas to the gas nozzles for all the on burnners in a row of flues. This includes the gas nozzles for both the high and low burners in each of the on flues.
In FIGURES 4 and 5 another embodiment of the invention is illustrated where the gas nozzles are located at different horizontal levels and the flues are connected directly with the vertical duct in the adjacent or companion flue. Referring to FIGURES 4 and 5, there is generally designated by the numeral a hairpin flued type regenerative coke oven having companion flues 102, 104 separated by a division wall 106. A assageway 108 connects the upper portion of flues 102 and 104 for circulation of gas therebetween. Fuel gas is supplied to the flues 102 and 104 by horizontal gas gun conduits 110 and 112 arranged substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the coking chambers on opposite sides of the flues, as is illustrated in FIGURE 5. The flue floor or base 114 has gas nozzles 116 and 118 projecting upwardly therethrough into flue 102. Similarly, gas nozzles 120 and 122 project upwardly through the flue floor 114 in flue 104.
The vertical flue 102 has an arcuate semi-elliptically shaped vertical wall 140 which is joined at its vertical edges to the surface of the dividing wall 106 to form a vertical dust riser or passageway surrounding the gas nozzle 116. The vertical duct 140 has an upper opening or port 142 that opens into flue 102 and is similar to the duct 58 previously described. In flue 104 there is a similar vertical duct 144 that surrounds nozzle 122 and extends upwardly therefrom and has an upper opening or port 146.
Referring to FIGURE there is illustrated a horizontal passageway 148 that extends through division wall 106 and connects the vertical duct 140 with the flue 104, and a second passageway 150' that connects vertical duct 144 in flue 104 with flue 102. With this arrangement a portion of the waste gas flowing downwardly in the off flue flows through the respective lateral passageway in wall 106 into the vertical duct of the adjacent companion flue.
Operation Assuming in FIGURE 2 that flue 22 is the on or flame flue and companion flue 24 is the off flue, the coke oven structure illustrated operates as follows. Fuel gas is supplied through gas gun conduit 38 and passageways or conduits 52 and 54 to both gas nozzles 48 and 50. Heated combustion air is supplied to flue 22 from regenerator chamber 30 through passageway 28. A portion of the combustion air is admixed with the rich fuel gas at nozzle 50 and is burned at the nozzle or low burner 50 and heats the walls of the lower portion of the flue. This heatis transferred through the walls 14 to the carbonaceous materials in the adjacent coking chambers 12. A portion of the waste gas flowing downwardly through flue 24 enters the duct 62 in flue 24 through top opening 64, flows downwardly therethrough and into passageway 66. The waste gas then flows through passageway 66 into vertical duct 58 where it is admixed with the fuel gas introduced into duct 58 through nozzle 48. The diluted fuel gas is then conveyed upwardly through the duct 58 to the opening or port 60 where the diluted fuel gas is admixed with a portion of the combustion air flowing upwardly through flue 22 and is ignited and burns at the duct opening 60 which can be called the high burner. The combustion of the fuel gas and air at the high burner heats the upper portion of the flue walls and provides heat through the division walls to the carbonaceous material in the upper portion of the coking chambers 12. With this arrangement the carbonaceous material in the coking chambers 12 is uniformly heated to the desired coking temperatures.
The combustion of the gas within the ,duct 58 commences at the upper edge or top of the duct 58 where it is admixed with the combustion air. As previously described, the low burner or nozzle 50 heats the lower portion of the flue walls so that the wall of duct 58 is also at an elevated temperature so that the gas passing upwardly through duct 58 is heated to an elevated temperature. The fuel gas fed through nozzle 48 and flowing upwardly through passage 58 is not, however, subject to thermal decomposition at this elevated temperature because it is diluted by the waste gas supplied through passageway 66. It is, therefore, possible to simultaneously burn both the low level burner defined by gas nozzle 50 and the high level burner defined by the upper edge 60 of duct 58 and provide uniform heating of the carbonaceous material in the adjacent coking chambers 12. It is preferred that the admixture of fuel gas and waste gas comprise approximately one volume of fuel gas and one, or slightly more, volumes of waste gas. In addition, it has been discovered that the admixture of fuel gas and waste gas has a lower gravity than the waste gas in the adjacent companion flue. The higher gravity waste gas in the companion flue forces the admixture of waste gas and fuel gas upwardly in the on flue duct to improve the recirculation through the respective on and off flues.
The species of the invention illustrated in FIGURES 4 and 5 is arranged to operate in substantially the same manner as that illustrated in FIGURES 1-3. In FIGURES 4 and 5 the waste gas is withdrawn from the flue proper and conveyed through a separate passageway to the duct in the adjacent on flue. With the arrangement illustrated in FIGURES 4 and 5 the gas nozzle for the low burner is positioned at an elevation slightly above the gas nozzle for the high burner. The arrangement of the separate Waste gas passageways through the division wall and the relative position of the burners enables the fuel gas fed through the nozzle to be more thoroughly admixed with the waste gas before the admixture is subjected to the very high temperatures of the duct adjacent the low burner 118. The fuel gas supplied through the gas nozzle in the duct and the waste gas supplied through the passageway are more thoroughly admixed before the admixture is subjected to the elevated temperature.
According to the provisions of the patent statutes, the principle, preferred construction and mode of operation of the invention have been explained and what is considered to represent its best embodiments have been illustrated and described. However, it should be understood that within the scope of the appended claims, the invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically illustrated and described.
