[0029] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] The following description of a diverging panel according to an embodiment of the present invention is with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the diverging panel according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a panel body 1 and a deflector 2.

[0032] The panel body 1 has a first plate 11 and a second plate 12, the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 being along the thickness direction of the first plate 11 (e.g., Figure 3 The mounting cavity 14 is defined by the relative arrangement of the plates (shown in the vertical direction) at intervals. A first hole 111 is provided on the first plate 11, penetrating the first plate 11 along its thickness direction. A second hole 121 is provided on the second plate 12, penetrating the second plate 12 along its thickness direction. Both the first hole 111 and the second hole 121 communicate with the mounting cavity 14, allowing airflow to enter the mounting cavity 14 through the first hole 111 and exit through the second hole 121. Specifically, as shown... Figures 1-3 As shown, the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are both circular plates. The first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are spaced apart in the vertical direction to define the mounting cavity 14. The first plate 11 has a first hole 111 that penetrates the first plate 11 in the vertical direction, and the second plate 12 has a second hole 121 that penetrates the second plate 12 in the vertical direction. Thus, airflow enters the mounting cavity 14 through the first hole 111 and flows out of the second hole 121 through the mounting cavity 14.

[0033] The ratio of the surface area to the volume of the baffle 2 is A, and the ratio of the area to the volume of the inner circumferential surface of the mounting cavity 14 is B, where A is greater than B. The baffle 2 is disposed within the mounting cavity 14 and is connected to at least one of the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, so that the baffle 2 disturbs the airflow within the mounting cavity 14 to improve the heat transfer coefficient between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12. Specifically, as shown... Figures 1-4As shown, the spoiler 2 is fixedly installed in the installation cavity 14 and connected with the lower end surface of the first plate 11 or the upper end surface of the second plate 12, the ratio of the surface area of the spoiler 2 to the volume of the spoiler 2 is A, the ratio of the area of the inner circumferential surface of the installation cavity 14 to the volume of the installation cavity 14 is B, and A is greater than B (in other words, the spoiler 2 has a higher specific surface area), thereby, through the high specific surface area and the disturbance of the spoiler 2, the heat exchange coefficient between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 is improved, thereby improving the cooling effect of the airflow, in addition, the spoiler 2 also hinders the flow of the airflow, prolongs the flow time of the airflow in the installation cavity 2, thereby further improving the cooling effect of the airflow.

[0034] The diverging panel 100 of the embodiment of the present application is provided with the spoiler 2, which optimizes the cooling of the diverging panel 100, improves the cooling effect of the airflow, and can reduce the number of the first holes 111 and the second holes 121 of the diverging panel 100, thereby reducing the amount of cooling airflow and ensuring the flame temperature and NOx emission of the combustion chamber head.

[0035] In some embodiments, the panel body 1 is provided with a plurality of third holes 13 penetrating the panel body 1 along the thickness direction thereof, and the plurality of third holes 13 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the panel body 1, and the third holes 13 are adapted to pass through the nozzles. Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-4 The panel body 1 is provided with a plurality of third holes 13 penetrating the panel body 1 along the up-down direction, one of the third holes 13 is located at the middle of the panel body 1, and the remaining third holes 13 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the panel body 1, and a plurality of nozzles are respectively and correspondingly arranged in the third holes 13.

[0036] In some embodiments, the diverging panel 100 further comprises a plurality of sleeves 3, and the plurality of sleeves 3 are respectively and correspondingly arranged in the plurality of third holes 13, and the two ends of the sleeve 3 are respectively connected with the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, so that the third hole 13 is spaced apart from the installation cavity 14 by the sleeve 3. Specifically, as shown in Figures 3-4 The number of sleeves 3 is equal to the number of third holes 13, and one sleeve 3 is arranged in each third hole 13, and the upper and lower ends of the sleeve 3 are respectively connected with the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, in other words, the inner circumferential surface of the sleeve 3 defines the inner circumferential surface of the third hole 13, so that the third hole 13 is spaced apart from the installation cavity 14, thereby preventing the airflow in the installation cavity 14 from flowing into the third hole 13, and ensuring the working efficiency of the nozzles and preventing the influence of the airflow on the nozzles.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first holes 111 are multiple, and the multiple first holes 111 are uniformly distributed in the first plate 11. The second holes 121 are multiple, and the multiple second holes 121 are uniformly distributed on the second plate 12. In the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the panel body 1, the multiple first holes 111 and the multiple second holes 121 are staggered in the projection plane, and at least one spoiler 2 is located between the first hole 111 and the second hole 121. Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-2 the multiple first holes 111 and the multiple second holes 121 are respectively uniformly distributed on the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, and in the projection plane perpendicular to the up-down direction, the multiple first holes 111 and the multiple second holes 121 are staggered in the projection plane (in other words, the first holes 111 and the second holes 121 are not arranged opposite to each other in the up-down direction, the first holes 111 are arranged opposite to the second plate 12, and the second holes 121 are arranged opposite to the first plate 11), and each first hole 111 and second hole 121 is provided with a spoiler 2, so that the air flow flows into the mounting cavity 14 through the first hole 111, and then is disturbed by the spoiler 2 before flowing out of the second hole 121, preventing the air flow from flowing directly from the first hole 111 into the second hole 121, further improving the disturbance of the air flow in the mounting cavity 14 and the convective heat transfer coefficient between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, and prolonging the service life of the radiant panel 100.

[0038] In some embodiments, the number of first holes 111 is not less than the number of second holes 121. Specifically, the number of first holes 111 is greater than or equal to the number of second holes 121. In this way, the air intake of the air flow in the mounting cavity 14 is ensured, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the panel body 1.

[0039] In some embodiments, the multiple second holes 121 are arranged in multiple rows along the circumferential direction of the panel body 1, each row including multiple second holes 121 arranged along the radial direction of the panel body 1, at least one row of second holes 121 is located between two adjacent third holes 13, and the multiple first holes 111 are uniformly distributed between the third hole 13 and the outer circumferential surface of the panel body 1. Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-2 the multiple second holes 121 are arranged in multiple rows along the circumferential direction of the panel body 1, each row including multiple second holes 121 arranged along the radial direction of the panel body 1, at least one row of second holes 121 is located between two adjacent third holes 13, and the multiple first holes 111 are uniformly distributed between the third hole 13 and the outer circumferential surface of the panel body 1. Specifically, as shown in

[0040] In some embodiments, the plurality of turbulence generators 2 are arranged in the mounting cavity 14 in a plurality of rows along a radial direction of the panel body 1, and each row includes a plurality of turbulence generators 2 arranged along a circumferential direction of the panel body 1. In this way, the turbulence generators 2 are evenly distributed in the mounting cavity 14, and the turbulence and heat exchange effects of the turbulence generators 2 are ensured.

[0041] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the arrangement of the plurality of turbulence generators 2, and the plurality of turbulence generators 2 can be fixed together in sequence according to actual conditions.

[0042] Since the additive manufacturing process has the advantages of free-form manufacturing and rapid manufacturing process, in some embodiments, the panel body 1 and the turbulence generators 2 are formed by the additive manufacturing process. In this way, the panel body 1 and the turbulence generators 2 are integrally formed by the additive manufacturing process, which reduces the manufacturing time of the diverging panel and ensures the manufacturing quality of the diverging panel.

[0043] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 the shape of the turbulence generator 2 is any one of an X-lattice shape, a Kagome lattice shape, and a face-centered cubic lattice shape. Since the specific surface area of the lattice shape is larger than that of the mounting cavity 14, the surface area of the turbulence generator 2 is larger under the same volume, and therefore the cooling effect of the turbulence generator 2 is good. In addition, the lattice-shaped turbulence generator 2 can also support the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, which improves the strength of the panel body 1 and prolongs the service life of the panel body 1.

[0044] The cap according to the embodiments of the present application includes a cap barrel 10 and a diverging panel 100

[0045] The cap barrel 10 has an airflow passage. Specifically, the cap barrel 10 is a cylindrical shape extending in the up-down direction, and the inner circumferential surface of the cap barrel 10 defines the airflow passage, and the air inlet of the airflow passage is located at the upper end of the cap barrel 10.

[0046] The diverging panel 100 is the diverging panel 100 of any one of the above embodiments, and the diverging panel 100 is arranged at one end of the cap barrel 10, and the airflow passage is in communication with the first hole 111 of the diverging panel 100, so that the airflow flows into the first hole 111 through the airflow passage. Specifically, as shown in Figures 1-5 the diverging panel 100 is arranged at the lower end of the cap barrel 10, and the airflow passage and the first hole 111 are arranged opposite to each other in the up-down direction, so that the airflow flows into the first hole 111 through the airflow passage to cool the diverging panel 100.
