[0028] This embodiment discloses a low-NOx burner, which can be used in, but not limited to, the working conditions of chemical production. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the low-NOx burner includes a burner body 1 and a combustion heat-conducting member 2. Among them, the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is arranged at the outlet end of the burner body 1, and a combustion channel 21 is formed inside the combustion heat-conducting member 2. Due to the adoption of fuel staging technology, the burner is divided into a primary combustion zone, a secondary combustion zone, and a tertiary combustion zone, where the primary combustion zone and part of the secondary combustion zone are located in the combustion channel 21. The other structures of the burner are not limited, and any structures in the prior art for supplying gas and fuel to the burner body 1 can be used; the internal structure of the burner body 1 is also the same as that in the prior art.

[0029] The combustion heat-conducting member 2 can transfer the temperature within its range to the outside, thereby reducing the peak flame temperature in the combustion channel 21 and reducing the generation level of NOx, which is beneficial to environmental protection. The primary combustion zone and part of the secondary combustion zone are fuel injection areas, where the combustion is intense and the peak flame temperature is high. The setting of the combustion heat-conducting member 2 can significantly reduce the peak flame temperature and reduce the generation of NOx.

[0030] The specific material for preparing the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is not limited, as long as it has good heat-conducting performance. In this embodiment, the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is made of a porous medium. A porous medium is a substance composed of a solid skeleton and a large number of tiny voids densely grouped and separated by the skeleton. Heat can quickly transfer from the inside of the combustion heat-conducting member 2 to the outside through the tiny voids, which can quickly reduce the peak flame temperature in the combustion channel 21 and reduce the generation level of NOx. The specific structure and preparation material of the porous medium are not limited, and any porous medium that can withstand high temperatures in the prior art can be used.

[0031] The specific shape of the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is not limited, as long as it is conducive to heat conduction without affecting normal combustion. In this embodiment, the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is cylindrical, which is convenient for processing. The combustion heat-conducting member 2 has a large contact area with the hot air inside it, and the heat conduction efficiency is high. The axis of the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is parallel to the axis of the burner body 1, or the combustion heat-conducting member 2 is coaxially arranged with the burner body 1. The fuel can burn normally, and the heat and energy obtained from the combustion can be used normally without making too many improvements to the existing burner and the furnace body used in combination, which is more convenient to use and has a low cost.

[0032] On the basis of the above structure, a flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3 is formed inside the low-NOx burner. The flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3 includes a fuel injection zone. The fuel directly contacts the air and burns quickly and fully, so the combustion temperature in this zone is relatively high and more NOx will be generated. To solve this problem, a cavity heat-conducting member 4 is arranged in the flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3. The cavity heat-conducting member 4 is used to reduce the peak flame temperature in at least part of the flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3, thereby reducing the generation amount of NOx and achieving the purpose of environmental protection.

[0033] Specifically, a burner block 11 is arranged inside the burner body 1. The flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3 is formed within the range surrounded by the burner block 11. The cavity heat-conducting member 4 is arranged on at least part of the inner wall of the burner block 11. Among them, the specific structure of the burner block 11 is not limited, and various burner blocks 11 in the prior art are applicable.

[0034] In this embodiment, a step is formed on the inner wall surface of the burner block 11. The part of the burner block 11 below the step is of a straight cylinder structure; the part of the burner block 11 above the step is a cone, and along the gas flow direction, the cross-section of the cone gradually decreases. The step of the burner block 11 is the position where the fuel injection is concentrated, and the combustion temperature here is high. The cavity heat-conducting member 4 is located at the step. At least part of the outer wall surface of the cavity heat-conducting member 4 is attached to the burner block 11, which can efficiently transfer the heat from the inside of the cavity heat-conducting member 4 to the outside of the cavity heat-conducting member 4, and then transfer it to the surrounding environment through the burner block 11, thereby reducing the peak flame temperature and reducing the generation of NOx.

[0035] In order to reduce the obstruction to the normal flow of the combustion gas, the inner diameter of the cavity heat conducting member 4 is equal to the inner diameter of the straight cylindrical structure of the burner brick 11 below the step. When the gas flows through the cavity heat conducting member 4, it will not be obstructed, and while quickly conducting heat, it does not affect the normal operation of the burner.

[0036] Within a range of 500 mm upward from the top end of the burner brick 11, the fuel is in direct contact with the air and burns quickly and fully. This area is the primary combustion zone and the secondary combustion zone. Arranging the combustion heat conducting member 2 in this area helps to quickly conduct heat, reduce the peak flame temperature, and reduce the generation of NOx.

[0037] The specific preparation material of the cavity heat conducting member 4 is not limited as long as it can quickly conduct heat. The cavity heat conducting member 4 is made of a porous medium, and heat can quickly transfer from the inside of the cavity heat conducting member 4 to the outside through the tiny voids, which can effectively reduce the peak flame temperature in the flue gas entrainment combustion zone 3. The specific structure and preparation material of the porous medium are not limited, and any porous medium that can withstand high temperatures in the prior art can be used.

[0038] In addition, the gas flow rate is large inside and at the outlet of the burner brick 11, the local turbulence is intense, and the combustion reaction is significant. The porous medium has the effect of stabilizing the flame, making the combustion inside and at the outlet of the burner brick 11 more stable, reducing the turbulence phenomenon, and can also reduce the generation of NOx to a certain extent.

[0039] On the basis of the above structure, the cavity heat conducting member 4 is in a cylindrical shape, which is convenient for processing and has a low cost. The cavity heat conducting member 4 is coaxially arranged with the burner body 1, which does not affect the normal flow of the combustion gas and does not affect the normal use of the high burner.

[0040] Note that the above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles applied. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described here. Various obvious changes, re-adjustments, and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Without departing from the concept of the present invention, it can also include more other equivalent embodiments, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
