TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of burners, and particularly relates to a low air-fuel ratio kiln burner. BACKGROUND
[0002] During the operation of a ceramic tunnel kiln, due to the negative pressure caused by high-temperature heat absorption and conveying in the initial upstream high-temperature section, external air enters the kiln from the gap outside the tunnel kiln, so that the flue gas conveyed from the upstream high-temperature section to the preheating section contains a large amount of oxygen. Therefore, a combustion mode for reducing the oxygen content of flue gas is usually adopted in the combustion chamber of the preheating section to consume the excess oxygen in the flue gas and reduce the flue gas emission. At present, the kiln burners used in the kiln of the ceramic industry are mostly designed according to the normal air-fuel ratio (i.e., the air excess ratio adjustment ratio >= 1.0), specifically the ability to control the proportion of flue gas conveyed from the upstream high-temperature section and the amount of supplied fuel gas for combustion, but when the air excess ratio of the kiln is controlled to be much less than 1 (even less than 0.5) in actual operation, it will deviate from the design working range of the kiln burner and cannot work normally, resulting in flameout, flameout, reduced heat exchange capacity, and increased energy consumption. SUMMARY
[0003] The present application aims to overcome the problem that the existing kiln burner has a small range of ability to control the proportion of air and fuel gas for combustion and cannot achieve low air-fuel ratio adjustment, and to provide a low air-fuel ratio kiln burner capable of controlling low air-fuel ratio combustion.
[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:
[0005] The low air-fuel ratio kiln burner comprises a burner body, the burner body comprising an igniter, a combustion-supporting gas delivery part and a fuel gas delivery part; the combustion-supporting gas delivery part is located at the peripheral part of the burner body and is provided with a plurality of circumferentially arranged stable flame axial air jet delivery ports; the fuel gas delivery part is located at the middle part of the burner body and extends outside the combustion-supporting gas delivery part, and is provided with a plurality of circumferentially arranged axial fuel gas jet delivery ports on the front side and a plurality of circumferentially arranged radial fuel gas jet delivery ports on the outer side; the plurality of axial fuel gas jet delivery ports are inclinedly arranged outward along the central axis direction of the fuel gas delivery part; and the plurality of radial fuel gas jet delivery ports and the plurality of stable flame axial air jet delivery ports are correspondingly arranged in the same radial direction.

[0012] Further, the combustion-supporting gas delivery part is also provided with a plurality of annularly arranged peripheral axial air jet ports; the peripheral axial air jet ports are arranged in the same circumferential direction as the rotating air jet delivery ports, and one peripheral axial air jet port is arranged at a distance of at least one rotating air jet delivery port; through such arrangement, although the rotating air jet has the effect of strengthening the mixing of air and gas and promoting combustion, strong rotation flow is easy to cause hollow flame, which reduces the volumetric heat intensity of the combustion chamber and leads to poor flame stability; therefore, the axial air jet delivered by the axial air jet port in proper proportion can increase the turbulence degree, fill the hollow phenomenon caused by rotation flow, strengthen combustion, and increase the volumetric utilization rate of the combustion chamber.
