As Figure 1 shown, the burner includes a controller 101, a combustion chamber 102, a heat exchanger 103, and a premixing chamber 104.

The combustion chamber 102 is configured to receive the mixed gas coming out of the premixing chamber 104, burn in the combustion chamber 102, and the flame formed by the combustion provides energy to the heat exchanger 103. Among them, the flame structure mainly consists of a flame kernel region, a flame surface region, and a burnout region, and the heat exchanger 103 is mainly energized by the flame in the burnout region. The heat exchanger 103 is configured to absorb the heat energy provided by the combustion chamber 102 and heat the water inside the heat exchanger 103. The premixing chamber 104 is configured to fully mix the gas and air and store the mixed gas.

[0050] Next, a detailed description will be given of an optimization method for a burner provided by an embodiment of the present application in conjunction with specific embodiments. Figure 2 The following is a flowchart of an optimization method for a burner provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 2 shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0051] Step 201: Obtain the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber.

[0052] In implementation, due to the unreasonable design of the combustion chamber of the gas water heater, the turbulent flame height of the combustion in the combustion chamber of the gas water heater is relatively high. The structure of the premixed turbulent flame mainly consists of a flame kernel region, a flame surface region, and a burnout region. The total flame length of the turbulent flame can be expressed by the following formula: L f = L1 + δ2 + L3. L frepresents the total flame length of the turbulent flame, L1 represents the length of the flame core, δ2 represents the thickness of the flame face, and L3 represents the thickness of the burnout zone. The flame core is located at the bottom of the turbulent flame, the flame face is located in the middle, and the burnout zone is located at the outermost part of the turbulent flame. Furthermore, the turbulent flame primarily supplies energy to the heat exchanger through the burnout zone. Therefore, as the turbulent flame height increases, the combustion energy supply efficiency of the turbulent flame decreases. Therefore, the combustion chamber design should be optimized to optimize the turbulent flame height.

[0053] Furthermore, the flame core area of a turbulent flame is mainly related to the airflow velocity, the flame hole radius, and the flame propagation speed. It can be approximately considered that the formula for determining the length of the flame core area can be:

[0054]

[0055] Where L1 is the length of the flame core, v is the airflow velocity, r is the outflow radius of the flame hole, S T is the flame propagation velocity. The flame hole outflow radius is primarily determined by the larger flame hole, and given the same size, the flame hole outflow radius can be considered constant. The flame propagation velocity is primarily influenced by the mixed gas ratio, gas properties, initial mixture temperature, flame temperature, and pressure. For a constant mixed gas ratio (i.e., 5% excess oxygen), constant gas properties (i.e., natural gas), constant initial mixture temperature, and similar flame temperature and pressure, the flame propagation velocity can be approximately considered constant. Therefore, the length of the flame core of a turbulent flame is primarily determined by the gas velocity of the mixed gas.

[0056] Furthermore, the thickness of the flame front along the airflow axis of a turbulent flame depends on the flame's turbulent characteristics and the properties of the gas-air mixture. Given that the turbulent characteristics of flames vary little, and the gas-air mixture ratio at the combustion chamber inlet is constant, the thickness of the flame front can be assumed to be constant.

[0057] Furthermore, the thickness of the burnout zone of a turbulent flame depends primarily on the dynamic characteristics of the mixed gas and the airflow velocity (i.e., residence time). Since today's fuel gas is usually natural gas, the dynamic characteristics of a gas (natural gas)-air mixture are the same. Therefore, the formula for determining the thickness of the burnout zone of a mixed gas of a certain composition can be:

[0058] L3=Kv

[0059] Wherein, L3 represents the thickness of the burnout zone, v represents the air flow velocity, and k represents a constant.

[0060] In summary, for the fully premixed metal fiber burner, the height of the turbulent flame mainly depends on the air flow velocity of the mixed gas.

[0061] The mixed gas enters the combustion chamber from the inlet of the combustion chamber and then burns in the combustion chamber. After the turbulent flame passes through the holes of the support plate (porous support plate), it burns on the surface of the metal fiber. Therefore, the length L of the fire plate (the length L of the porous support plate) is the effective combustion size. The combustion heat energy of the turbulent flame passes through the outlet of the combustion chamber to supply energy to the heat exchanger. Therefore, reducing the flame height is related to the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber. Among them, the porosity is the percentage of the pore volume in the bulk material to the total volume of the material in its natural state. That is, the larger the porosity, the more the number of holes. Therefore, the controller needs to obtain the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber.

[0062] Step 202: Input the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate into the pre-established combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber, and output the flame height in the combustion chamber.

[0063] In implementation, the obtained designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate are input into the pre-established combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber, and the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber outputs the flame height of the turbulent flame in the combustion chamber. Among them, the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is a numerical simulation calculation model established by intercepting the middle longitudinal interface of the combustion chamber. Details such as the mixed gas inlet, porous support plate, metal fiber surface, overall combustion chamber, and combustion outlet of the combustion chamber are all established completely. Figure 3 The figure is a schematic structural diagram of a combustion chamber provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 3 shown, the mixed gas enters the cavity of the combustion chamber from the inlet of the combustion chamber and then burns in the combustion chamber. After the turbulent flame passes through the holes of the support plate (porous support plate), it burns on the surface of the metal fiber. The length of the fire plate (the length of the porous support plate) is the effective combustion size. The combustion heat energy of the turbulent flame passes through the outlet of the combustion chamber to supply energy to the heat exchanger.

[0064] Before step 202, technicians need to pre-establish a combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber. The specific steps for establishing the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber are as follows.

[0065] Step 1: Obtain the structural data of the combustion chamber, the initial length and initial porosity of the porous support plate, and based on the modeling tool, establish the physical structure of the combustion chamber and extract the fluid domain of the physical structure to obtain the geometric model of the fluid domain.

[0066] In implementation, when technicians establish the physical structure of the combustion chamber, they first obtain the structural data of the combustion chamber, the initial length, initial porosity, and pore morphology data of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber. The structural data includes the length, width, height, inlet size, outlet size, and wall size of the combustion chamber. Technicians use 3D modeling tools to establish the physical structure of the combustion chamber based on the data of the combustion chamber obtained above. Among them, the 3D modeling tools include modeling software pre and modeling software UG (Unigraphics NX, an interactive CAD / CAM system software developed based on the C language). After establishing the physical structure of the combustion chamber, fluid domain extraction is performed on the physical structure to obtain the geometric model of the fluid domain.

[0067] Furthermore, during the process of establishing the geometric model, the boundary conditions for the mixed gas entering and leaving the combustion chamber are set.

[0068] Among them, the mixed gas is a mixture of fuel gas and air entering the combustion chamber for combustion. The boundary conditions include inlet conditions and outlet conditions. The inlet conditions include excess oxygen concentration, flow rate, temperature, and heat load. The outlet conditions include pressure and wall conditions.

[0069] For example, when the inlet conditions are that the excess oxygen concentration of the mixed gas is 5%, the flow rate of the mixed gas is 9.5 m / s, the temperature of the mixed gas is 300 K, and the heat load is 30 kw, the mixed gas enters the cavity of the combustion chamber from the inlet of the combustion chamber. The initial temperature of the combustion chamber wall is 300 K. The outlet conditions are that the pressure in the combustion chamber reaches the preset pressure value, there is no velocity slip on the wall (that is, the velocity of the mixed gas on the wall is 0), the turbulent pulsation is zero, and the gas after combustion in the combustion chamber exits from the outlet of the combustion chamber.

[0070] Step two, perform mesh division on the geometric model to obtain the mesh data of the geometric model.

[0071] In implementation, when performing mesh division on the geometric model, the fluid domain is filled with virtual mesh elements, and the mesh data corresponding to the mesh elements is obtained, then the mesh data of the geometric model can be obtained.

[0072] Furthermore, the mesh is a tetrahedral element mesh. In order to better capture complex structures such as orifice plates, triangular element meshes are used. In order to avoid mesh data dissipation and numerical distortion, the mesh quality is greater than or equal to the preset mesh quality. Among them, the preset mesh quality can be 0.3.

[0073] Step three, based on the algorithm tool, use the preset differential equation algorithm to calculate the mesh data to obtain the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber.

[0074] In implementation, based on algorithm tools, a combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is obtained by calculating grid data using a preset differential equation algorithm. Among them, the preset differential equation algorithm includes a continuity equation, a momentum equation, a component equation, an energy equation, and a combustion rate control equation. Moreover, the preset differential equation algorithm needs to select a discrete format of the preset differential equation algorithm. Among them, the discrete formats include first-order discretization, second-order discretization, central discretization, two-end discretization, and relaxation factor, etc.

[0075] Step 203, if the flame height output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is greater than a preset flame height threshold, then adjust the designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate, and execute the step of inputting the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate into a pre-established combustion chamber simulation model until the flame height output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is less than or equal to the preset flame height threshold.

[0076] In implementation, the mixed gas enters the combustion chamber from the inlet of the combustion chamber and then burns in the combustion chamber. After the turbulent flame passes through the holes of the porous support plate, it burns on the surface of the metal fiber. When the gas water heater burns gas to heat water, the supply amount of the mixed gas per unit time is constant. At the same time, by adjusting the designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate, the number of holes in the porous support plate can be increased. Thus, with the supply amount of the mixed gas being constant and the number of holes in the porous support plate increasing, the flow rate of the mixed gas flowing through each hole of the porous support plate will correspondingly decrease, and the gas flow rate of the mixed gas passing through the holes will also decrease. As a result, the height of the flame will be reduced. Therefore, compare the flame height output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber with the preset flame height threshold. If the flame height output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is greater than the preset flame height threshold, then it is necessary to adjust the designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate. Input the adjusted designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate into the pre-established combustion chamber simulation model step, compare the flame height re-output by the combustion chamber simulation model with the preset flame height threshold until the flame height output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is less than or equal to the preset flame height threshold. Otherwise, it is necessary to continuously readjust the designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate.

[0077] As an optional implementation manner, the specific steps for adjusting the designed length and / or designed porosity of the porous support plate are as follows.

[0078] Step 1, increase the designed length of the porous support plate by a preset length adjustment step.

[0079] In practice, the design length of the porous support plate is increased by a preset length adjustment step. Because the number of holes per unit length area of the porous support plate is fixed, increasing the design length of the porous support plate by the preset length adjustment step also increases the number of holes in the porous support plate. Thus, by increasing the preset length adjustment step, the number of holes in the porous support plate can be increased, thereby reducing the height of the turbulent flame.

[0080] Step 2: The designed porosity of the porous support plate is increased by a preset porosity adjustment step.

[0081] In practice, the designed porosity of the porous support plate is increased by a preset porosity adjustment step. Increasing the designed porosity of the porous support plate increases the number of holes per unit area of the porous support plate. Thus, by increasing the preset porosity adjustment step, the number of holes in the porous support plate can be increased, thereby reducing the height of the turbulent flame.

[0082] For example, three schemes can be used to adjust the design length and / or design porosity of the porous support plate according to the flame height. Refer to Table 1, the table header is the scheme, the design length of the porous support plate (i.e., the effective combustion size), the hole morphology and the porosity. The schemes include Scheme 1, Scheme 2 and Scheme 3. The design length (i.e., the effective combustion size) of the porous support plate of Scheme 1 is 157*67 mm. The hole morphology is a strip hole (7 mm long, 0.65 mm wide, 23 rows horizontally and 9 rows vertically), and the design porosity is 7.34%. The design length (i.e., the effective combustion size) of the porous support plate of Scheme 2 is 157*67 mm. The hole morphology is a strip hole (7 mm long, 0.65 mm wide, 45 rows horizontally and 9 rows vertically), and the design porosity is 14.5%. The design length (i.e., effective combustion size) of the porous support plate of Scheme 3 is 187*97 mm, the hole shape is strip holes (7 mm long, 0.65 mm wide, 27 rows horizontally and 13 rows vertically), and the design porosity is 7.34%.

Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4Schematic diagram of a porous support plate including Solution 1, Solution 2, and Solution 3. The designed length of the porous support plate in Solution 1 is the initial length of 157 * 67 mm, and the designed porosity is the initial porosity of 7.34%. Taking Solution 1 as a reference, the designed length of the porous support plate in Solution 2 is the same as that in Solution 1, and the designed porosity is twice that of Solution 1. The designed length of the porous support plate in Solution 3 is 1.72 times that of Solution 1, and the designed porosity is the same as that in Solution 1.

As Figure 5 shown, Figure 5 it includes the flames of Solution 1, Solution 2, and Solution 3 output by the combustion chamber combustion simulation model. Technicians input the designed length of 157 * 67 mm and the designed porosity of 7.34% of the porous support plate in Solution 1 into the combustion chamber combustion simulation model, and the combustion chamber combustion simulation model outputs a flame height of 5 cm.

[0088] Technicians input the designed length of 157 * 67 mm and the designed porosity of 14.5% of the porous support plate in Solution 2 into the combustion chamber combustion simulation model, and the combustion chamber combustion simulation model outputs a flame height of 2 cm.

[0089] Technicians input the designed length of 187 * 97 mm and the designed porosity of 7.34% of the porous support plate in Solution 3 into the combustion chamber combustion simulation model, and the combustion chamber combustion simulation model outputs a flame height of 1 cm. Therefore, increasing the length and / or porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber will reduce the flame height.

[0090] Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the flame combustion of a burner provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 6 shown, Figure 6Flames of a burner combustion including porous support plates respectively for Solution 1, Solution 2, and Solution 3. Technicians measured the turbulent flame heights of Solution 1, Solution 2, and Solution 3 respectively, and obtained that the turbulent flame height of Solution 1 is 5 cm, the turbulent flame height of Solution 2 is 2 cm, and the turbulent flame height of Solution 3 is 1 cm. Because when the turbulent flame height is 1 - 2 cm, the burnout zone of the turbulent flame has a relatively high energy supply efficiency for the heat exchanger. Therefore, increasing the length and / or porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber will reduce the flame height. Thus, based on the turbulent flame height of 1 - 2 cm, the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber combustion simulation model can be adjusted until the flame height output by the combustion chamber combustion simulation model is 1 - 2 cm. Furthermore, based on the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate in the combustion chamber combustion simulation model corresponding to the flame height of 1 - 2 cm, the combustion chamber of the burner can be designed. In this way, the combustion energy supply efficiency of the flame in the combustion chamber can be made higher.

[0091] The embodiment of the present application provides an optimization method for a burner. By means of a pre-established combustion chamber combustion simulation model, the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate are adjusted, so that the height of the flame output by the combustion chamber combustion simulation model is more reasonable. The more reasonable height of the flame enables the improvement of the combustion energy supply efficiency when supplying energy to the heat exchanger. It avoids the problem of low combustion energy supply efficiency of the flame caused by the relatively high flame height in the prior art. At the same time, the combustion chamber of the burner can also be designed according to the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate corresponding to the reasonable flame height. In this way, the combustion energy supply efficiency of the flame can be improved.

[0108] As an alternative implementation, the mesh is a tetrahedral element mesh; the mesh quality is greater than or equal to a preset mesh quality.

[0109] The embodiment of the present application provides an optimization device for a burner. By means of a pre-established combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber, the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate are adjusted, so that the height of the flame output by the combustion simulation model of the combustion chamber is more reasonable. The more reasonable height of the flame enables the improvement of the combustion energy supply efficiency when supplying energy to the heat exchanger. It avoids the problem of low combustion energy supply efficiency of the flame caused by the relatively high height of the flame in the prior art. At the same time, the combustion chamber of the burner can be designed according to the designed length and designed porosity of the porous support plate corresponding to the reasonable flame height. In this way, the combustion energy supply efficiency of the flame can be improved.
