[0029] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0030] In order to solve the problem that the burner in the prior art is unstable in low-load combustion, resulting in reduced fuel utilization, increased pollutant emissions, and even equipment damage or safety accidents, the present invention provides a micro-oxygen-enriched burner, such as Figure 1 As shown, the slightly oxygen-enriched burner includes: a central primary air nozzle 1, which is connected to the furnace and is used to introduce fuel gas. An oscillation cavity is provided between the central primary air nozzle 1 and the furnace. After passing through the oscillation cavity, the fuel gas is excited to be oscillating fuel gas and sprayed into the furnace, so that it is more fully mixed with other gases, burns more completely, and has a high fuel utilization rate; a secondary air nozzle, a plurality of secondary air nozzles are arranged outside the central primary air nozzle 1 and are connected to the furnace, and are used to introduce the required air for subsequent combustion into the furnace; and a primary air regulating nozzle 8, which is connected to the furnace and is used to introduce oxygen, so that the oxygen concentration in the furnace is appropriately increased to reach a slightly oxygen-enriched state (the oxygen concentration is generally 21% to 30%), so that the introduced fuel gas can burn more fully and reduce the polluting exhaust gas generated by incomplete combustion. Through the above technical scheme, the oscillating cavity causes the gas introduced into the furnace to produce an oscillating jet, periodically changing the speed, flow rate or direction of the jet fluid, producing a regular pulsation or swinging effect, making the transfer of heat and momentum more efficient. The vortex structure generated can significantly improve the stability of the mixing and combustion process. At the same time, the slightly oxygen-enriched combustion also takes into account the balance between operating costs and performance improvement. It is particularly suitable for improving combustion stability during low-load operation of coal-fired power plants. It can effectively improve combustion stability, high fuel utilization, reduce pollutant emissions and reduce equipment damage.

[0031] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the oscillation cavity includes a primary oscillation cavity 5 and a secondary oscillation cavity 7 which are sequentially connected between the central primary air nozzle 1 and the furnace. The primary air in the central primary air nozzle 1 passes through the primary oscillation cavity 5 and the secondary oscillation cavity 7 in sequence, and oscillates twice, further strengthening the primary air to generate an oscillating jet, so that the gas distribution in the furnace is more uniform, and the gas and oxygen are more fully mixed, so as to burn more fully.

[0032] In some embodiments, in order to stimulate the formation of oscillating gas and achieve a better oscillating injection effect, the diameter ratio of the central primary air nozzle 1 to the primary oscillation cavity 5 is preferably 0.2-0.5, to avoid the inlet cross-sectional area of ​​the primary oscillation cavity 5 being too small or too large, which affects the formation of oscillating gas. The diameter ratio of the primary oscillation cavity 5 to the secondary oscillation cavity 7 is preferably 0.6-0.8, to avoid the inlet cross-sectional area of ​​the secondary oscillation cavity 7 being too small or too large, which affects the further aggravation of the oscillating gas.

[0033] In some embodiments, the ratio of the length to the diameter of the primary oscillation cavity 5 is 1.5-3, and the ratio of the length to the diameter of the secondary oscillation cavity 7 is 1.5-3, which provide suitable excitation conditions for the formation of oscillating combustion gas.

[0034] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the orifice plate 6 is arranged at a position near the outlet of the inner wall of the primary oscillation cavity 5, and the orifice plate 6 is formed at the outlet of the primary oscillation cavity 5 as a channel with an inner diameter smaller than that of the primary oscillation cavity 5 and a square cross section, which is used to promote the formation of an oscillating jet. Orifice plates 6 of other shapes can also be provided to set the channel cross section to different shapes, such as setting the cross section to a triangle, etc., and by providing channels of different shapes to promote the formation of oscillating jets to different degrees, which can be flexibly adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0035] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the primary air regulating nozzle 8 is arranged on both sides of the central primary air nozzle 1 and is connected to the outlet of the central primary air nozzle 1. A valve is arranged at the inlet of the primary air regulating nozzle 8 to adjust the amount of input oxygen. The primary air regulating nozzle 8 is used to mix the primary air and oxygen, adjust the oxygen concentration of the primary air, and thus adjust the oxygen concentration in the furnace as a whole to form a slightly oxygen-enriched combustion environment. At the same time, the setting position of the primary air regulating nozzle 8 enables the primary air regulating nozzle 8 to adjust the shape of the gas sprayed from the central primary air nozzle 1. The oxygen in the primary air regulating nozzle 8 collides and mixes with the gas of the central primary air nozzle 1 at the outlet of the central primary air nozzle 1, further aggravating the oscillation injection effect in the primary oscillation cavity 5. The oxygen introduced into the primary air regulating nozzle 8 can use oxygen as a byproduct of other new energy production processes, such as the oxygen byproduct of solar photovoltaic hydrogen production can be connected to the oxygen-enriched burner of the present invention.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the secondary air nozzle includes an inner secondary air nozzle 2 and an outer secondary air nozzle 3 radially spaced from each other. The inner secondary air nozzle 2 and the outer secondary air nozzle 3 are respectively spaced outside the central primary air nozzle 1 and provide air to the furnace. Among them, the inner secondary air nozzle 2 provides additional air for the combustion process to ensure that the gas in the furnace can be completely burned. An outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 is provided between the outer secondary air nozzle 3 and the furnace. The air introduced by the outer secondary air nozzle 3 passes through the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4, generates an oscillating jet and is sprayed into the furnace, further strengthening the gas mixing in the furnace, making the gas burn more fully, and improving the combustion stability.

[0037] In some embodiments, the diameter ratio of the outer secondary air nozzle 3 to the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 is preferably 0.2-0.5, and the length-diameter ratio of the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 is 2-5, so as to stimulate a more violent oscillating jet.

[0038] In some embodiments, the number of the inner secondary air nozzles 2 is 2 to 6, and the number of the outer secondary air nozzles 3 is 2 to 4. Figure 2 The figure shows the case where the number of inner secondary air nozzles 2 is 2 and the number of outer secondary air nozzles 3 is 2. When the number of inner secondary air nozzles 2 is greater than 2 and less than or equal to 6, and the number of outer secondary air nozzles 3 is greater than 2 and less than or equal to 4, the inner secondary air nozzles 2 and the outer secondary air nozzles 3 can be arranged arbitrarily along the circumference of the central primary air nozzle 1.

[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the outlets of the secondary oscillation cavity 7, the inner secondary air nozzle 2, and the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 are flush with the furnace, and the flow velocity is 60m / s~200m / s, that is, the inlet flow velocity of the furnace is 60m / s~200m / s. The amount of gas introduced can be adjusted according to actual needs to control the combustion intensity of the micro-oxygen-enriched burner.

[0040] The working process of the oxygen-enriched burner provided by the preferred embodiment of the present invention is specifically described below:

[0041] The gas introduced into the central primary air nozzle 1 collides and mixes with the oxygen introduced into the primary air regulating nozzle 8 at the outlet of the central primary air nozzle 1, and enters the primary oscillation cavity 5 to generate an oscillating jet. When passing through the channel at the orifice plate 6 near the outlet of the primary oscillation cavity 5 and the secondary oscillation cavity 7 in sequence, an oscillating jet is further generated and sprayed into the furnace. At this time, the mixing of the gas and oxygen is more complete. The air introduced into the outer secondary air nozzle 3 generates an oscillating jet after passing through the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 and is sprayed into the furnace. In the furnace, the mixed gas of gas and oxygen from the secondary oscillation cavity 7 is sprayed into the furnace, and the outer secondary air oscillation cavity 4 is sprayed into the furnace and fully mixed with the air introduced into the furnace by the inner secondary air nozzle 2, which increases the contact area between the gas and the air, promotes the full combustion of the gas in a slightly oxygen-enriched state, improves the combustion stability, reduces pollutant emissions, and is more suitable for low-load combustion.
