DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams that only schematically illustrate the basic structure of the present application, and thus only show the components relevant to the present application.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-10 A multi-surface combustion water-cooled low-nitrogen combustor, comprising an air inlet assembly, a cyclone 4 and an air distribution chamber 8, the air inlet assembly comprising a fan 1, the cyclone 5 comprising a gas inlet 48, air and gas entering the air distribution chamber 8 through the cyclone 4, the air distribution chamber 8 being arranged on one side of the furnace 9, the furnace 9 being provided with a combustion chamber 10 on the side close to the air distribution chamber 8, both sides of the combustion chamber 10 being provided with an ignition assembly 11, and the combustion chamber 10 being provided with a smoke exhaust pipe 12.

[0030] In use, air enters the cyclone 4 through the air inlet assembly, gas enters the cyclone 4 at the gas inlet 48, and air and gas enter the air distribution chamber 8 after mixing in the cyclone 4, and finally enter the combustion chamber 10 of the furnace 9; at this time, the ignition assembly 11 is started, so that the mixed gas is burned in the combustion chamber 10; in the present application, finned pipes are arranged in the combustion chamber to cool the flame, which can effectively avoid local high temperature and reduce the generation of thermal NOx, and the low oxygen content in the flue gas improves the thermal efficiency of the boiler.

[0031] The air inlet assembly further comprises an air distribution box 2 and a variable diameter cylinder section 3, the fan 1, the air distribution box 2 and the variable diameter cylinder section 3 are sequentially communicated, and the cyclone 4 is arranged between the air distribution chamber 8 and the variable diameter cylinder section 3; the combustor further comprises a filter 5, a pressure reducing valve 6 and a control valve group 7, the filter 5, the pressure reducing valve 6 and the control valve group 7 are arranged on the cyclone 4, specifically on the gas inlet pipeline; the filter 5 is used to filter impurities in natural gas, and the pressure reducing valve 6 and the control valve group 7 are used to control the opening of natural gas.

[0032] In addition, the present application is also provided with a sight glass 13 on both sides of the combustion chamber, which is used to observe the flame and combustion condition in the combustion chamber 10.

[0033] In the embodiment, the variable diameter cylinder section 3, the cyclone 4 and the uniform gas chamber 8 form a combustion surface (combustion head), and three or more combustion surfaces can be derived based on the size or requirement of the boiler.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 4-6 , the cyclone 4 comprises an outer annular cavity 41, an intermediate annular cavity 42 and an inner annular cavity 43, the outer annular cavity 41 and the intermediate annular cavity 42 are communicated through a first connecting pipe 44, the intermediate annular cavity 42 and the inner annular cavity 43 are communicated through a second connecting pipe 45, the outer wall of the outer annular cavity 41 is provided with a gas inlet 48, the inner wall of the outer annular cavity 41 is provided with a through hole 46, the intermediate annular cavity 42 and the inner annular cavity 43 are provided with a through hole 47, the intermediate annular cavity 42 is communicated with the outer annular cavity 41 through the first connecting pipe 44 and the through hole 47, and the intermediate annular cavity 42 is communicated with the inner annular cavity 43 through the second connecting pipe 45 and the through hole 47.

[0035] That is, after the gas enters the outer annular cavity 41 from the gas inlet 48, the gas can enter the intermediate annular cavity 42 through the first connecting pipe 44, and the gas in the intermediate annular cavity 42 can enter the inner annular cavity 43 through the second connecting pipe 45; in addition, the gas in the outer annular cavity 41 can also overflow to the center at the through hole 46, and the gas in the intermediate annular cavity 42 and the inner annular cavity 43 can overflow to both sides through the through hole 47, and after overflowing, it can be uniformly distributed in the cyclone 4, so as to ensure uniform distribution of the gas.

[0036] Further, one side of the cyclone 4 is sealingly connected with the variable diameter cylinder section 3 through a flange, and the other side is provided with a plurality of inclined flow guide plates 49, the cyclone 4 is communicated with the uniform gas chamber 8 at the side close to the flow guide plates 49, the cross section of the uniform gas chamber 8 is conical, the gas is distributed in the cyclone 4 through the through hole 46 and the through hole 47, the air is injected into the cyclone 4 through the fan 1, and the gas and the air are mixed in the cyclone 4 and then enter the uniform gas chamber 8 through the flow guide plates 49.

[0037] As Figure 6 shown, the air and the gas are first preliminarily mixed in the cyclone 4, and then the mixed gas flows into the furnace through the uniform gas chamber 8.

[0038] In the scheme, the combustion chamber 10 is provided with a vertical air distribution plate 102 at the side close to the uniform gas chamber 8, the middle of the air distribution plate 102 is provided with a vertical intermediate partition plate 101, one side of the intermediate partition plate 101 is connected with the inner wall of the furnace, and the other side penetrates through the air distribution plate 102 and is welded with a circular pipe 103, and the circular pipe 103 is vertically welded in the furnace 9, wherein the purpose of the circular pipe 103 is to provide a welding surface to ensure stable connection of the intermediate partition plate, and the intermediate partition plate 101 divides the air distribution plate 102 into left and right parts, and the divided air distribution plate 102 corresponds to the combustion head.

[0039] Furthermore, the inner side of the air distribution plate 102 is provided with multiple vertically arranged finned tubes 104. Cooling water is circulated within each finned tube 104. The cooling water effectively reduces the flame temperature, avoids localized high temperatures, and reduces the generation of thermal NOx. Multiple irregularly shaped corrugated plates 105 are provided between each pair of adjacent finned tubes 104. The finned tubes 104 have cross-sections on both sides, and the outermost irregularly shaped corrugated plate 105 is welded to the finned tube 104 at the cross-section. A gap 106 is provided between each pair of adjacent irregularly shaped corrugated plates 105. See details below. Figure 10 .

[0040] The surface of the air distribution plate 102 is provided with multiple sets of air distribution holes 1021, which are arranged in a vertical line and can be circular, elliptical or polygonal in shape.

[0041] Please refer to it again. Figure 3 When the mixture of gas and air enters the furnace 9 through the gas equalization chamber 8, it is first blocked by the air distribution plate 102. Since the surface of the air distribution plate 102 is provided with air distribution holes 1021, the mixture will enter the air distribution plate 102 through the air distribution holes 1021 and then be burned. Since the air distribution holes 1021 are arranged in a vertical line, the flame of combustion will also be in a vertical line, avoiding the flame from being too long or concentrated.

[0042] In the present invention, the vertically arranged air distribution holes 1021 correspond one-to-one with the vertically erected finned tubes 104. Each finned tube 104 is located directly behind the air distribution hole 1021. The distance between the finned tube 104 and the air distribution plate 102 is the flame length of the mixed gas combustion.

[0043] In other words, the mixed gas will be blown towards the finned tube 104 through the air distribution hole 1021, meaning the combustion flame will also point towards the finned tube 104. Since the finned tube 104 is equipped with circulating cooling water, the circulating cooling water in the finned tube 104 can continuously reduce the flame temperature, thus ensuring that the flame is evenly distributed and does not generate local high temperatures. Moreover, the flame temperature is below 950°C, effectively suppressing the generation of NOx and achieving low-nitrogen environmental protection.

[0044] Compared to traditional diffusion burners, the multi-faceted burner of this invention ensures uniform flame distribution, effectively avoids localized high temperatures and reduces the generation of thermal NOx. Simultaneously, the lower oxygen content in the flue gas improves boiler thermal efficiency. Furthermore, the multi-head water-cooled low-NOx burner has a compact structure and short flame, eliminating the need for a large furnace, thus effectively reducing the overall boiler size and floor space. The triple air distribution system—including the cyclone separator 4, air distribution plate 102, and corrugated plate 105—ensures uniform mixing of air and fuel gas, facilitating combustion and reducing NOx generation.

[0045] Obviously, the above-mentioned embodiments are only examples for clearly illustrating the present application, but not limitation to the embodiments. Based on the above description, other different forms of changes or variations can be made by those skilled in the art. Here, it is not necessary and also impossible to enumerate all the embodiments. The obvious changes or variations derived from the above description are still within the protection scope of the present application.
