Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an integrated ignition gun for an ammonia oxidation furnace, specifically an ignition device for an ammonia oxidation furnace in the production process of nitric acid, belonging to the technical field of ammonia oxidation furnace ignition. Background Technique
[0002] In the process of producing nitric acid using an ammonia oxidation furnace, the ignition gun plays a crucial role during the furnace startup. Before starting the ammonia oxidation furnace, it is necessary to first use the ignition gun to ignite a small fire, and then use the small fire to ignite the large hydrogen pipe fire to activate the platinum mesh.
[0003] An ignition gun is arranged at the upper part of the ammonia oxidation furnace body, and the ignition gun is adjacent to the large hydrogen pipe, but a certain ignition distance needs to be ensured. The ignition gun is inserted obliquely into the ammonia oxidation furnace wall for a long time, with the ignition end of the ignition gun placed inside the ammonia oxidation furnace and the power connection end placed outside the ammonia oxidation furnace. The ignition gun of the existing ammonia oxidation furnace has a relatively complex transmission mechanism, which not only has a high cost, but also has the following problems:
[0004] Due to factors such as the insertion depth of the ignition gun, the ignition position, and space limitations, all will affect the ignition effect. The distance between the ignition end of the ignition gun and the large hydrogen pipe is very important. Currently, this distance is usually determined by the nitric acid process package provider. If the distance is too close, during the operation of the ammonia oxidation furnace, the ignition gun is affected by the high-temperature flue gas and undergoes thermal expansion, thus colliding with the large hydrogen pipe. Long-term collisions cause the large hydrogen pipe to deform, and it is easy to burn out the platinum mesh. If the distance is too far, the sparks at the ignition end of the ignition gun cannot ignite the large hydrogen pipe.
[0005] Since there are some impurities in the ammonia-air mixture, some viscous substances will accumulate on the ignition gun head and cannot be carried away. Over time, it will cause the small hydrogen pipe on the ignition gun to be blocked, resulting in the ignition gun being unable to work properly.
[0006] In a double-pressure or medium-pressure nitric acid system, during the operation of the ammonia oxidation furnace, since the flue gas pressure in the furnace is about 4 barg, due to the poor sealing between the ignition gun and the furnace wall surface, ammonia gas will leak through the connection between the ignition gun and the furnace body. The leaked ammonia gas will turn into nitric acid when it encounters a low-temperature environment, thus causing corrosion of the copper core of the cable at the power connection end of the ignition gun. Content of the Utility Model
[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an integrated ignition gun for an ammonia oxidation furnace that is convenient to operate, ignites quickly and reliably, so as to solve the technical problems that the ignition device in the existing ammonia oxidation furnace has a relatively complex transmission mechanism, high cost, long ignition time, and is prone to accidents of burning out the platinum mesh.

The hydrogen pipe is fixed on the upper part of the ignition element, and the end of the hydrogen pipe has a nozzle arranged obliquely downward, and the nozzle faces the protection plate and the front end of the spark plug, and the lowermost end of the nozzle exceeds the upper end of the protection plate.
[0009] The nozzle is an elbow pipe. After the elbow pipe deviates from the top of the ignition element, the end of the nozzle faces the front end of the spark plug.
[0010] The included angle between the end of the nozzle and the end face of the ignition element is 30°-45°; the included angle between the end of the nozzle and the vertical section of the ignition element is 45°.
[0011] The main body of the hydrogen pipe is spot-welded and fixed to fit on the upper surface of the support pipe; the hydrogen pipe and the support pipe are provided with a housing that surrounds the hydrogen pipe and the support pipe, and the housing is hermetically fitted with the wall surface of the ammonia oxidation furnace.
[0012] The distance between the lowermost end of the nozzle and the axis of the ignition element is 10-15 mm.
[0013] The distance between the lowermost end of the nozzle and the axis of the ignition element is 12 mm.
[0014] An insulating layer is arranged on the outer surface of the conductive rod, and the insulating layer is attached to the outer surface of the conductive rod.
[0015] Both the insulating layer and the insulating pipe are made of ceramics; the support pipe is a stainless steel pipe; the conductive rod is a round steel.

[0016] A sealing member is arranged at the rear end of the support pipe, and the conductive rod passes through the rear end of the sealing member in a sealed manner and is connected with the spark plug connector.

The two sides of the annular boss are respectively and hermetically fitted with the inner wall of the support pipe and the outer wall of the insulating pipe. The sealing gasket is located between the rear end face of the insulating pipe and the inner side of the sealing cover, and the outer peripheral surface of the sealing gasket is hermetically fitted with the inner peripheral surface inside the annular boss.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The present utility model integrates the hydrogen gas pipe and the ignition device body, which can make the ignition operation more convenient. A protective plate is provided at the front end of the ignition device body, and the nozzle is located between the protective plate and the spark plug.

[0034] The use process of the present utility model is as follows: 1.

The DC electrode of the electronic igniter discharges to generate a spark to ignite the hydrogen, and then disconnect the power supply of the electronic igniter.
[0035] 2. Before each ignition, first tighten the spark plug of the ignition gun, and the nozzle needs to be designed as a long round hole.
[0036] 3. Since the insertion depth of the ignition gun, the ignition position and space limitations, and the direction of spark splashing may all affect the ignition effect, therefore, after multiple horizontal, vertical, and rotational adjustments and angle changes, mark the positions where ignition is successful multiple times as the reference points for future ignition operations.
[0037] During each maintenance, synchronously maintain all quick cut-off valves and regulating valves. Blow the pipeline before starting and stopping the furnace each time. Before each ignition, individually confirm the action sensitivity and opening and closing degrees of all three-valve groups for each single valve, and then conduct a linkage confirmation. Through the above three links, ensure that each valve is convenient, flexible, correctly linked, and executed in place during ignition.
[0038] Since the ignition effect may be affected by the insertion depth of the ignition gun, the ignition position and space limitations, as well as the direction of spark splashing, in the present utility model, the relative positions of the ignition gun and the large hydrogen pipe are determined based on years of design and use experience, which is of great significance for successful ignition.
