For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0027] The burner structure 1 of a premix burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the burner structure 1 of the premixing burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 10 , a driving impeller 20 , a swirl impeller 30 and a speed change device 40 .

[0029] A flow channel 11 is provided in the shell 10. An air inlet 12 connected to the flow channel 11 is provided at the upper end of the shell 10, and a burner outlet 13 connected to the flow channel 11 is provided at the lower end (the up and down directions are shown by the arrows in the figure). An air flow regulating port 14 and a gas inlet 15 are provided on the peripheral wall of the shell 10. The air flow regulating port 14 is suitable for letting in or exhausting air, and the gas inlet 15 is located below the air flow regulating port 14 in the axial direction of the shell 10.

[0030] The driving impeller 20 is rotatably disposed in the outer casing 10 and is located above the air flow regulating port 14 in the axial direction of the outer casing 10. The driving impeller 20 is constructed to be suitable for rotating under the drive of the air flow entering the air inlet 12, and the rotation speed of the driving impeller 20 is suitable for changing according to the air flow rate entering the air inlet 12.

[0031] The swirl impeller 30 is rotatably disposed in the housing 10 and is located below the gas inlet 15 in the axial direction of the housing 10 .

[0032] The driving impeller 20 and the swirl impeller 30 are connected by a transmission device 40 so that the swirl impeller 30 is suitable for rotating under the drive of the driving impeller 20 . The speed change device 40 is configured to be suitable for adjusting the speed ratio of the driving impeller 20 and the swirl impeller 30 .

[0033] Specifically, the speed change device 40 may be a planetary gear transmission.

[0034] The swirl impeller 30 includes a plurality of swirl blades uniformly distributed along the circumference. The swirl impeller 30 is suitable for pushing and guiding the airflow when rotating, so that the airflow rotates while flowing axially, thereby enhancing the mixing uniformity of the airflow and forming a high-temperature flue gas recirculation zone.

[0035] Air enters the flow channel 11 through the air inlet 12, and the driving impeller 20 rotates under the drive of the air flow, and the driving impeller 20 drives the swirl impeller 30 to rotate through the speed change device 40. The gas enters through the gas inlet 15, and is fully mixed with the air under the rotation of the swirl impeller 30. Finally, the mixed gas is ejected through the burner outlet 13 and ignited.

[0036] By controlling the air flow rate entering the air inlet 12, the rotation speed of the driving impeller 20 can be controlled, thereby controlling the rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30, and by adjusting the speed ratio of the speed change device 40, the rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30 can be further precisely controlled.

[0037] Since the air flow rate entering the flow channel 11 from the air inlet 12 needs to be adjusted according to the required rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30, there may be a situation where the air flow rate required for combustion is inconsistent with the air flow rate at the air inlet 12. By setting the air flow regulating port 14, the air flow regulating port 14 can be used to supplement air into the flow channel 11 or discharge excess air. For example, when the air flow rate required for combustion is large, but the required rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30 is small, and the air flow rate at the air inlet 12 is small, the air can be supplemented into the flow channel 11 through the air flow regulating port 14; when the air flow rate required for combustion is small, the required rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30 is large, and the air flow rate at the air inlet 12 is large, the excess air in the flow channel 11 can be discharged through the air flow regulating port 14.

[0038] According to the burner structure 1 of the premixing burner with adjustable swirl intensity in the embodiment of the present invention, by setting a driving impeller 20, a swirl impeller 30 and a speed change device 40, the rotation speed of the driving impeller 20 can be adjusted by utilizing the change in air flow rate, thereby adjusting the rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30, and by adjusting the rotation speed ratio of the speed change device 40, the rotation speed of the swirl impeller 30 can be further precisely controlled, so that the swirl impeller 30 can achieve different swirl intensities, ensuring that the optimal swirl intensity can be achieved under different load conditions, thereby improving combustion efficiency, making combustion more complete, reducing pollutant generation, widening the range of stable combustion conditions, improving the applicability of the burner to different conditions, and improving the flexibility of the burner.

[0039] Furthermore, by providing an air flow regulating port 14, when the air flow required for combustion is inconsistent with the air flow at the air inlet 12, the air flow regulating port 14 can be used to supplement air into the flow channel 11 or discharge excess air, thereby achieving fine adjustment of the air flow under different working conditions, ensuring that the burner maintains optimal combustion efficiency under different working conditions, and reducing energy waste.

[0040] Therefore, the burner structure 1 of the premixed burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to the embodiment of the present invention has the advantages of high combustion efficiency, low pollution, strong applicability, etc.

[0041] The burner structure 1 of a premix burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to a specific embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the burner structure 1 of the premixing burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 10 , a driving impeller 20 , a swirl impeller 30 and a speed change device 40 .

[0043] Advantageously, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the burner structure 1 of the premix burner with adjustable swirl intensity further includes a rectifying plate 50, which is located between the air flow regulating port 14 and the gas inlet 15 in the axial direction of the housing 10, and a plurality of rectifying holes 51 are provided on the rectifying plate 50, and the diameters of the plurality of rectifying holes 51 gradually increase from the radial inner side to the radial outer side of the rectifying plate 50. Specifically, the plurality of rectifying holes 51 are arranged on the rectifying plate 50 in a plurality of circles spaced apart in the radial direction of the rectifying plate 50, and each circle includes a plurality of rectifying holes 51 spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the rectifying plate 50. Since the airflow will be disturbed by the driving impeller 20 after passing through the driving impeller 20, resulting in uneven flow velocity, by setting the rectifying plate 50, the airflow can be made to pass through the rectifying holes 51 on the rectifying plate 50 respectively, thereby rectifying the airflow. Since the diameter of the rectifying holes 51 gradually increases from the radial inside to the radial outside of the rectifying plate 50, the distribution and flow velocity of the airflow in the flow channel 11 can be made more uniform, so that the air and fuel gas can be more fully mixed, and the combustion efficiency can be further improved.

[0044] More advantageously, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the gas inlet 15 is connected to a gas conduit 60, which extends outwardly and upwardly from the outer circumference of the housing 10. In this way, the gas conduit 60 can be used to guide the incoming gas flow, so that the flow direction of the gas flow is inclined to the air flow, reducing the impact of the gas flow on the rectified air flow, making the gas and air more evenly distributed, and further allowing the gas and air to be more fully mixed.

[0045] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the gas conduit 60 is 60 degrees to the axial direction of the housing 10. This allows the gas flow and the air flow to have a reasonable angle, further reducing the impact of the gas flow on the rectified air flow, and further improving the uniformity of the gas and air mixing.

[0046] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an air conduit 70 is connected to the air flow regulating port 14. This makes it easy to introduce air into the flow channel 11 or exhaust excess air.

[0047] Figure 1-Figure 3 The burner structure 1 of the premix burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the driving impeller 20 includes a wheel shaft 21 and a plurality of airfoil blades 22. The plurality of airfoil blades 22 are arranged on the wheel shaft 21 at intervals along the circumferential direction. The use of airfoil blades can facilitate the driving impeller 20 to change the rotation speed under different air flow rates, so that the swirl impeller 30 rotates at different rotation speeds to achieve different swirl effects.

[0048] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, each airfoil blade 22 has a first surface 221 and a second surface 222 relative to each other. The first surface 221 forms a first arc in a cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the airfoil blade 22, and the second surface 222 forms a second arc in a cross section perpendicular to the length direction of the airfoil blade 22. The shapes and lengths of the first arc and the second arc are different. In this way, the two surfaces of the airfoil blade 22 can be asymmetrical, so that the flow speed of the airflow passing through the two surfaces of the airfoil blade 22 is different. According to Bernoulli's principle, the pressure is small where the flow speed is large, and the pressure is large where the flow speed is small. Therefore, the surface of one side of the airfoil blade 22 will be subjected to a smaller pressure, while the surface of the other side will be subjected to a larger pressure, thereby prompting the driving impeller 20 to rotate, so that it is convenient for the driving impeller 20 to rotate at different speeds under the control of different airflow flow rates.

[0049] More specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple air flow regulating ports 14 which are evenly spaced along the circumference of the housing 10. This can make the air replenishment and discharge more uniform, further improve the uniformity of air distribution in the flow channel 11, and facilitate the full mixing of gas and air.

[0050] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple gas inlets 15 which are evenly spaced along the circumference of the housing 10. This makes the gas more evenly distributed in the flow channel 11, facilitating full mixing of the gas and air.

[0051] Alternatively, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rotation axis of the driving impeller 20 coincides with that of the swirl impeller 30. This facilitates the transmission connection between the driving impeller 20 and the swirl impeller 30, and can also make the gas distribution in the flow channel 11 more uniform, further facilitating the full mixing of the gas and air.

[0052] Other structures and operations of the burner structure 1 of the premixed burner with adjustable swirl intensity according to the embodiment of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
