Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coal combustion, and in particular relates to a pulverized coal flameless oxygen-enriched burner with a stabilizing device. Background Art

[0002] Oxy-fuel combustion technology is one of the carbon capture technologies with the lowest cost and the highest adaptability. Oxy-fuel combustion technology has two characteristics different from traditional air combustion: 1) The combustion flue gas is not discharged into the atmosphere. After dust removal, purification and condensation, it is circulated into the furnace in a certain proportion. This part of the flue gas is called circulating flue gas, and its main component is high-concentration CO2; 2) The pure oxygen separated by the air separation device and the circulating flue gas mixture are sent to the furnace for combustion instead of air, isolating the participation of N2 in the air. After multiple flue gas cycles, the CO2 concentration continues to increase (the volume concentration can reach 80-90% after condensation). By separating and purifying the high-purity CO2 in the flue gas, large-scale carbon capture can be achieved. Compared with air combustion, the main existing problems of oxygen-enriched combustion are: 1) Compared with N2 in air, CO2 in oxygen-enriched atmosphere has higher specific heat capacity and thermal radiation, which will cause ignition delay, flame temperature and propagation speed decrease, and combustion stability decrease in coal powder combustion; 2) After multiple cycles, the NOx concentration in the flue gas is at a relatively high level, affecting the safety of boiler operation.

[0003] The MILD oxy-fuel combustion technology, which combines the flameless combustion (MILD combustion) technology with good combustion stability and low NOx emission with the oxygen-rich combustion technology, has multiple advantages of high efficiency, cleanness and low carbon. This technology injects the oxidant (composed of pure oxygen and recycled flue gas) into the furnace through high-temperature preheating and high-speed jet flow, and the pulverized coal combustion reaction is diffused throughout the furnace through the strong dilution of the recirculated flue gas in the furnace. In the high-temperature and low-oxygen dilution environment, the combustion process presents a slow chemical reaction state, the peak temperature of the flame in the furnace is reduced, the temperature uniformity is improved, and the generation of NOx is suppressed.

[0004] In industrial applications, the oxidant is usually preheated at high temperature and injected at high speed to achieve flameless combustion. In order to reduce the energy consumption and cost of this process, the burner structure needs to be designed and optimized according to the technical characteristics of flameless combustion. The patent with application number CN202010684144.9 proposes a swirl oxygen-enriched flameless burner. By adding an ejector tube, pure oxygen is used to eject the high-temperature flue gas in the furnace for full mixing, thereby enhancing the suction of high-temperature flue gas in the furnace and improving the flame stability near the burner outlet; the patent with application number CN200910104757.4 designs a flameless combustion heat storage flat flame burner. By setting a porous heat storage body in the burner body, it is beneficial to achieve flameless combustion while ensuring the uniformity of the furnace temperature.

[0005] In summary, the existing pulverized coal flameless oxygen-enriched combustion devices mostly use methods such as adding ejectors and heat storage bodies to achieve flameless combustion of fuel. However, there are still problems such as complex burner structure and relatively high manufacturing cost, which is not conducive to the industrial application of pulverized coal flameless oxygen-enriched combustion.

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 This embodiment provides a pulverized coal flameless oxygen-enriched burner with a stabilizing device, which mainly includes a central pulverized coal nozzle 1, an oxidant nozzle 2 and a circulating flue gas nozzle 4 coaxially arranged from the inside to the outside. In addition, a combustion stabilizing blunt body 5 is also provided at the outlet end of the central pulverized coal nozzle 1 and the oxidant nozzle 2.

[0028] Specifically, the central pulverized coal nozzle 1 uses part of the circulating flue gas as the primary air to transport pulverized coal into the combustion chamber. It is coaxially arranged inside the oxidant nozzle 2, one end of which is used to receive the pulverized coal airflow, and the other end is connected to the central pulverized coal nozzle 51 inside the combustion stabilizing body 5. Furthermore, the central pulverized coal nozzle 1 adopts a tapered nozzle structure, which includes an inlet section, a contraction section and an outlet section that are connected in sequence. The pulverized coal jet enters from the inlet section, is accelerated in the contraction section, and is quickly ejected from the outlet section. In order to ensure the high-speed injection of the pulverized coal jet, the diameter of the outlet section of the central pulverized coal nozzle 1 is smaller than the diameter of the inlet section, and the ratio of the two is preferably 1 / 4 to 1 / 3.

[0029] Specifically, the oxidant nozzle 2 is used to transport a mixture of high-temperature circulating flue gas and pure oxygen generated by oxygen-enriched combustion into the combustion chamber. It is coaxially arranged inside the circulating flue gas nozzle 4, one end of which is used to receive the oxidant gas flow, and the other end is connected to the circumferential oxidant nozzle 52 inside the flame-stabilizing blunt body 5. Further, the oxidant nozzle 2 is a cylindrical structure, which includes an inlet section, a contraction section and an outlet section that are connected in sequence, wherein the rear part of the inlet section, the contraction section and the outlet section are coaxially arranged inside the circulating flue gas nozzle 4, and the oxidant gas flow enters from the inlet section, is accelerated by the contraction section, and finally ejected from the outlet section. In order to ensure the high-speed injection of the oxidant gas flow, the diameter of the outlet section of the oxidant nozzle 2 is smaller than the diameter of the inlet section, and the ratio of the two is preferably 1 / 3 to 1 / 2.

[0030] Furthermore, a swirler 3 is provided in the inlet section of the oxidant nozzle 2 to promote the full mixing of oxygen and high-temperature circulating flue gas and adjust the airflow stability. Specifically, the swirler 3 includes a swirling inner ring, guide vanes and a swirling outer ring, wherein the swirling outer ring cooperates with the inner wall of the oxidant nozzle 2, and the swirling inner ring cooperates with the outer wall of the central pulverized coal nozzle 1; the guide vanes are evenly distributed between the swirling inner ring and the swirling outer ring along the circumferential direction, the number of the vanes is preferably 6 to 8, and the inclination angle is preferably 15 to 25 degrees.

[0031] Furthermore, the interior of the flame stabilizing body 5 is provided with a central pulverized coal nozzle 51 and a peripheral oxidant nozzle 52, both of which can adopt a tapered structural design to further increase the inlet velocity of the pulverized coal jet and the oxidant jet, enhance the flue gas recirculation in the furnace caused by the high-speed jet, and thus promote the flameless combustion of the pulverized coal. Figure 2 The number of the circumferential oxidant nozzles 52 is 6, which are evenly distributed around the central pulverized coal nozzle 51, and the jet velocity is preferably 100-120 m / s, and the jet velocity of the central pulverized coal nozzle 51 is preferably 30-40 m / s.

[0032] Specifically, the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 is used to transport part of the circulating flue gas into the combustion chamber. The circulating flue gas nozzle 4 adopts a sleeve structure, and the oxidant nozzle 2 is coaxially arranged inside. Furthermore, the air inlet of the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 is arranged on the side of the end away from the combustion chamber (which is also the side of the furnace) to facilitate the transportation of the circulating flue gas pipeline. At the same time, the end of the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 close to the combustion chamber is directly connected with the combustion chamber. In order to achieve high-speed injection, the central pulverized coal nozzle 1 and the oxidant nozzle 2 need to adopt a tapered structural design, and in order to promote the reflux of the burner outlet and stabilize the flame combustion, the outlet end of the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 can be directly connected with the combustion chamber.

[0033] It should be noted that the flue gas circulation temperature at different positions in oxygen-enriched combustion is different. It can be divided into two types of circulating flue gas, one of which is the high-temperature circulating flue gas directly discharged from the furnace, and the other is the low-temperature circulating flue gas generated during dust removal, desulfurization and denitrification, and condensation. Among them, the oxidant nozzle 2 uses a mixture of pure oxygen and high-temperature circulating flue gas, and is supplemented by a high-speed jet, which is conducive to quickly achieving a flameless combustion state of pulverized coal, effectively saving the preheating cost. The central pulverized coal nozzle 1 and the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 can use low-temperature circulating flue gas, and the oxidant nozzle 2 is coaxially arranged with the central pulverized coal nozzle 1, thereby using the high-temperature circulating flue gas in the oxidant nozzle 2 to preheat the pulverized coal jet, which is conducive to shortening the preheating time of pulverized coal particles and promoting ignition of pulverized coal. Specifically, the circulating flue gas in the central pulverized coal nozzle 1, the oxidant nozzle 2 and the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 account for 5-10%, 20-30% and 60-75% respectively.

[0034] Specifically, the outer periphery of the combustion stabilizing body 5 forms an annular stopper that gradually extends outward in the axial direction, thereby entraining more circulating flue gas from the outside into the high-temperature flame zone near the burner outlet, fully diluting the oxygen concentration in the oxidant, reducing the peak temperature of the flame, and enhancing the uniformity of temperature distribution. Figure 4 When the airflow in the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 enters the combustion chamber, due to the obstruction of the bluff body, a strong recirculation zone will be formed behind the bluff body, and a large amount of circulating flue gas will be sucked to the vicinity of the burner outlet. At this time, the coal powder particles are in a strong turbulent mixing and low oxygen dilution environment. The homogeneous reduction of NO by the coke-CO2 gasification reaction and the heterogeneous reduction of NO by the coke particles are both beneficial to reducing the generation of NOx. In order to ensure the flow stability of the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 and the suction effect of the combustion stabilizing bluff body 5, the ratio of the maximum outer diameter of the combustion stabilizing bluff body 5 to the outlet inner diameter of the circulating flue gas nozzle 4 is preferably 1 / 4 to 1 / 3. Furthermore, the combustion stabilizing bluff body 5 and the central coal powder nozzle 1 and the oxidant nozzle 2 can be separately processed and manufactured and assembled together, which is convenient for loading and unloading and replacement, while reducing production costs.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
