Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for stabilizing the flame of a premix burner.
  • Combustion of fuel or an air-fuel mixture in combustors of gas turbines can cause combustion oscillations. These are characterized by greatly increased pressure amplitudes at different frequencies. Combustion vibrations can occur in the combustion chamber itself, but also in the adjacent components of the gas turbine and can be measured there. In general, combustion oscillations are undesirable because they adversely affect the combustion and can damage the entire combustion system. Combustion vibrations occur primarily in premix combustion systems, that is, in systems where the fuel is mixed with air prior to ignition. They occur preferably when the flame is limited to a relatively small location, so the reaction density is very high. Such a compact flame with a small local extent are associated with so-called delay times. If the delay times are within a certain narrow range, interactions with the acoustics of the combustion chamber may occur. This combustion oscillations can occur.
  • a system or method whereby combustion oscillations are completely avoided is not yet known.
  • premix combustion systems in which an air-fuel mixture is twisted and the flame is stabilized by recirculation zones.
  • fuel is injected into an air stream and both are twisted, for example with the help of so-called swirl blades. After a certain distance traveled by this mixture, it burns downstream of the burner in a flame front, which is spatially stabilized by the flow field.
  • all of these systems are characterized by the fact that there is a distinct and spatially limited flame. Therefore, combustion oscillations or flame instabilities inevitably occur at certain operating points. These can lead to extreme mechanical loads on the combustion chamber structure and should therefore be avoided or at least reduced.
  • pilot flames An additional, common way to stabilize the flame is the use of pilot flames. This is particularly important in a partial load operation of a gas turbine.
  • the method according to the invention for stabilizing the flame of a premix burner comprising a reaction space containing a fluid, such as the combustion gases, is characterized in that an air-fuel mixture is injected into the reaction space at a rate different from that in the reaction space differs located fluid.

  • An advantage of the present invention is that a complex twisting of the air-fuel mixture is not required, but nevertheless a mixing of air and fuel by turbulence is achieved.
  • the recirculation also causes mixing of the air-fuel mixture with the hot combustion gas produced during combustion. This stabilizes the burner since it achieves continuous ignition.

Furthermore, a radial grading or displacement of the amount of fuel can simply take place, so that optionally the radial fuel distribution can be manipulated.
  • the third variant has the advantage that the arrangement of three (or four or any other number, which is greater than one) pilot burners 4, the ignition paths are smaller than in the first two variants with a central burner.
  • the reaction is spatially distributed by suitable flow guidance.
  • combustion-induced instabilities can be largely avoided.
  • the air-fuel mixture is injected at high speed into the reaction space.
  • the resulting high turbulence and high shear of the flow prevents the oxidation of the mixture via a flame.
  • the reaction or oxidation is thus over the

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de stabilisation de la flamme d'un brûleur à prémélange (1) qui comprend une chambre de réaction (5) contenant un fluide. Le procédé est caractérisé en ce qu'un mélange d'air et de combustible est injecté dans la chambre de réaction (5) avec une vitesse différente de celle du fluide se trouvant dans la chambre de réaction (5). La vitesse est ajustée de telle sorte qu'il se forme des tourbillons (10) à la surface limite (11) se formant entre le mélange d'air et de combustible et le fluide l'entourant. En outre, l'invention concerne un brûleur à prémélange (1) qui comprend une chambre de réaction (5) et au moins une buse à jet de prémélange (6) débouchant dans la chambre de réaction (5). Le brûleur à prémélange (1) est caractérisé en ce qu'un mélange d'air et de combustible peut être injecté dans la chambre de réaction (5) à une vitesse différente de celle du fluide l'entourant, et la vitesse est ajustée de telle sorte qu'il se forme des tourbillons (10) à la surface limite (11) se formant entre le mélange d'air et de combustible et le fluide l'entourant.
