[0034] In response to the concept of green environmental protection, the traditional coal-fired boiler on the market is constantly being transformed into a gas-fired boiler. However, in most gas-fired boilers after transformation, the burner adopts a centralized torch type combustion mode, which causes problems such as high oxygen concentration in the combustion area, small flame volume, too fast combustion reaction, and high combustion temperature, thereby causing a large amount of NOx to be generated. In view of the above problems, the present application proposes a burner which retains the pressure-bearing structure on the basis of the original coal-fired boiler, replaces the original burner with the burner proposed by the present application to transform into a gas-fired boiler, and can disperse the centralized torch type combustion of the traditional burner into multi-point combustion of multiple small flames, form a larger flame volume, and thus reduce the combustion temperature, thereby reducing the generation of NOx.
[0035] Reference Figure 1According to the application, a burner comprises a shell 100, an ignition device and a plurality of fuel nozzles 400, the shell 100 is connected with oppositely arranged rear cover 200 and fire cover 300, and the shell 100, the rear cover 200 and the fire cover 300 surround a first chamber 110. The rear cover 200 is provided with a separate shunt chamber 220 from the first chamber 110, and the rear cover 200 is further connected with a main gas pipe 210 communicating with the shunt chamber 220, which can deliver the main gas into the shunt chamber 220. The fire cover 300 is provided with a central nozzle 310 and a combined nozzle, the ignition device located at the center of the first chamber 110 is connected with the fire cover 300 and communicates with the central nozzle 310, so that the ignition device can ignite the ignition gas at the central nozzle 310 to form an ignition source, and the shell 100 is provided with a first air passage 120 communicating with the first chamber 110, which can deliver the combustion air into the first chamber 110 through the first air passage 120, and then diffuse to the combustion area of the burner through the combined nozzle to supplement oxygen to the flame, at the same time, the high-speed jet of the burner can be used through the combined nozzle to cause the backflow of the flue gas in the combustion area, which can reduce the oxygen concentration in the combustion area, expand the combustion area, and further reduce the combustion temperature, thereby reducing the generation of NOx. In the embodiment of the application, the connecting member can be a clip or a plate member with other shapes, and the connecting mode can be buckle, screw connection or welding, etc., which will not be described here.
[0036] With reference to Figure 1 According to some embodiments of the application, the plurality of fuel nozzles 400 are circumferentially distributed around the ignition device and one end communicates with the shunt chamber 220, and the other end of the fuel nozzle 400 passes through the fire cover 300 and is provided with a nozzle, and the nozzle of the fuel nozzle 400 is located outside the combined nozzle, so that the main gas in the shunt chamber 220 can be high-speed injected to the outside and ignited by the ignition source of the central nozzle 310. Figure 5 The fuel nozzle 400 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 430 communicating with the first chamber 110, and it can be understood that when the first chamber 110 is filled with combustion air, the high-speed airflow generated by the high-speed injection of the main gas in the fuel nozzle 400 can drive the combustion air in the first chamber 110 into the fuel nozzle 400 through the first through hole 430, and mix with the main gas to provide oxygen for the combustion of the main gas.
[0037] With reference to Figures 1 to 3According to some embodiments of the present application, the central nozzle 310, the combined nozzle and the nozzles of the fuel injection pipes 400 are arranged from the center to the outer circle of the fire cap 300, the ignition device ignites the ignition gas and forms an ignition source at the central nozzle 310, when the ignition source is stable, the multiple fuel injection pipes 400 inject the main gas and are ignited by the ignition source, the concentrated torch combustion of the traditional burner is dispersed into multiple small flame multi-point combustion, the combustion area of the flame is increased, a larger flame volume is formed, and the combustion temperature is reduced, thereby reducing the generation of NOx. At the same time, the combined nozzle continuously sprays combustion air to supplement oxygen for subsequent flame combustion, and the high-speed jet of the burner causes the flue gas in the combustion area to flow back, which can reduce the oxygen concentration in the combustion area, expand the combustion area, and thus reduce the combustion temperature, thereby reducing the generation of NOx.
[0038] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 According to some embodiments of the present application, the combined nozzle includes a first nozzle 320, a second nozzle 330, a third nozzle 340 and a fourth nozzle 350 which are in communication with the first chamber 110, and the first nozzle 320, the second nozzle 330, the third nozzle 340 and the fourth nozzle 350 are arranged from the center to the outer circle of the fire cap 300. The first nozzle 320 and the second nozzle 330 are both in a spiral shape, which can expand the area of the combustion air injection, the third nozzle 340 is a plurality of circular nozzles which are arranged in a circumferential direction and are inclined towards the direction of the central nozzle 310, and the fourth nozzle 350 is a plurality of strip-shaped nozzles which are arranged in a circumferential direction. It can be understood that when the burner is used in a boiler, the combined nozzle composed of multiple nozzles of different forms can use the high-speed jet of the burner to form jets of different angles at the outer side of the fire cap 300 to suck the flue gas in the boiler, so that the flue gas circulates and diffuses in the boiler, which can reduce the oxygen concentration in the combustion area, thereby reducing the combustion temperature and reducing the generation of NOx.
[0039] Referring to Figure 3 According to some embodiments of the present application, the fuel injection pipe 400 includes a first injection pipe 410 and a second injection pipe 420, the length of the nozzle of the first injection pipe 410 from the fire cap 300 is greater than the length of the nozzle of the second injection pipe 420 from the fire cap 300, that is, the first injection pipe 410 is a long injection pipe and the second injection pipe 420 is a short injection pipe. In some embodiments, the first injection pipe 410 is four and is arranged in a circumferential direction around the ignition device, and the second injection pipe 420 is eight, two second injection pipes 420 are arranged uniformly between adjacent two first injection pipes 410, the ignition device ignites the ignition gas as primary combustion, after the ignition source is stable, the eight second injection pipes 420 are ignited as secondary combustion, and finally the four first injection pipes 410 are ignited as tertiary combustion, so that the burner disperses the concentrated torch combustion of the traditional burner into multiple small flame multi-point combustion through the structure of grading fuel and grading air, thereby forming a larger flame volume, reducing the combustion temperature and reducing the generation of NOx.
[0040] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the direction of the nozzle of the fuel injection pipe 400 is inclined towards the central nozzle 310, so that the high-speed jet of the burner can cause the smoke backflow of the combustion area, the oxygen concentration of the combustion area can be reduced, the combustion area can be expanded, and the combustion temperature can be reduced, thereby reducing the generation of NOx. The nozzle of the fuel injection pipe 400 is provided with a plurality of first injection holes 440, and the outer wall of the fuel injection pipe 400 near the nozzle is circumferentially provided with a plurality of second injection holes 450. By injecting fuel through the plurality of holes, the flame volume can be further expanded, and the combustion temperature can be further reduced, thereby reducing the generation of NOx.
[0041] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 6 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the ignition device is a fuel injection gun 500, which is installed on the rear cover 200, extends through the first chamber 110, and has an air inlet end outside the shell 100. The fuel injection gun 500 comprises a second chamber 510 provided with an ignition gas pipe 520, and an air inlet pipe 530 communicating with the ignition gas pipe 520, so that the ignition gas can enter the ignition gas pipe 520 through the air inlet pipe 530. The nozzle of the ignition gas pipe 520 communicates with the central nozzle 310, and the second chamber 510 is provided with an igniter 540, and the ignition electrode of the igniter 540 is arranged at the nozzle of the ignition gas pipe 520, so that the ignition gas jetted out of the ignition gas pipe 520 can be ignited by the ignition electrode to form an ignition source. In the embodiments of the present application, the connecting member can be a clip or a plate member of other shapes, and the connection mode can be buckling, screwing, welding or the like, which will not be described here.
[0042] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 6 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the air inlet end of the fuel injection gun 500 is provided with a second air passage 550 communicating with the second chamber 510, the nozzle end of the fuel injection gun 500 is provided with a third injection hole 560, and the outer peripheral wall of the ignition gas pipe 520 is uniformly provided with a plurality of second through holes 521 communicating with the second chamber 510. It can be understood that the ignition air enters the second chamber 510 through the second air passage 550, and the high-speed airflow generated by the high-speed jet of the ignition gas in the ignition gas pipe 520 can bring the ignition air into the ignition gas pipe 520 through the second through holes 521, so that the ignition gas and the ignition air are mixed, and oxygen is provided for the combustion of the ignition gas. The remaining ignition air can be diffused to the central nozzle 310 through the third injection hole 560. Referring to Figure 6In some embodiments, the third injection hole 560 is inclined towards the direction of the nozzle end of the ignition gas pipe 520, so as to facilitate the ignition air to supplement the subsequent oxygen for the ignition source, and the ignition gas can be stopped after the ignition source is stably combusted, while the ignition air is kept supplied, so that the ignition air can be part of the combustion air, and the influence of the high-temperature combustion air on the fuel injection lance 500 can be effectively blocked.
[0043] Further, with reference to Figure 6 According to some embodiments of the present application, the nozzle end of the ignition gas pipe 520 is provided with a plurality of fourth injection holes 570 and fifth injection holes 580, the fourth injection holes 570 extend along the axial direction of the ignition gas pipe 520, and the fifth injection holes 580 are perpendicular to the fourth injection holes 570. It can be understood that by arranging the fourth injection holes 570 and the fifth injection holes 580 in multiple directions perpendicular to each other, the diffusion area of the ignition gas can be increased, so that the ignition gas can be more easily mixed with the ignition combustion air, so that the ignition gas can be fully and stably combusted while the combustion area of the ignition gas is expanded.
[0044] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 6 According to some embodiments of the present application, the fuel injection lance 500 is provided with a flame detector 590, which is integrated with the ignition gas pipe 520 in the form of a concentric sleeve, and the flame detector 590 is used to detect the combustion condition in real time according to the combustion characteristics of the flame, so as to ensure the normal operation of the combustor. With reference to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the fire cover 300 is further provided with two symmetrically arranged flame detection holes 360, and the combustor is provided with a flame detector 590 (not shown in the figure) aligned with the flame detection holes 360, and the combustor is further provided with a combustor control circuit, which includes a flameout control circuit connected with a gas electric control valve for controlling the supply of ignition gas, and the above-mentioned flame detector 590 is connected with the combustor control circuit through wires, when the combustion flame formed outside the flame detection hole 360 is extinguished due to poor supply of ignition gas or occlusion of the flow path of the ignition gas pipe, etc., the flame detector 590 will transmit the flameout signal to the flameout control circuit, and then the flameout control circuit will control the gas electric control valve to be closed to cut off the supply of ignition gas.
[0045] With reference to Figure 1According to some embodiments of the present application, the first air passage 120 is provided with two air inlets, one of which is connected with an air pipeline and can input combustion-supporting air, and the other of which is connected with a return air pipeline, which is used to connect with a waste gas treatment device of the boiler and can extract and transport part of the boiler flue gas into the first air passage 120, so that the boiler flue gas is mixed with the combustion-supporting air to form mixed combustion-supporting gas with low oxygen concentration, and then is input into the first chamber 110 for combustion support. By using the mixed combustion-supporting gas with low oxygen concentration to reduce the oxygen concentration of the combustion area of the burner, the combustion reaction speed is reduced, the combustion temperature is reduced, and the generation of NOx is reduced.
[0046] The above describes the embodiments of the present application in detail in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present application.
