DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention:
[0019] Double-electrode power frequency long-time plasma igniter, such as Figure 1As shown, the system includes a compressed air pipeline, a gas pipeline, a power-frequency plasma control box 8, a dual-electrode plasma discharge system 10, and an ignition burner 11. The ignition burner 11 is connected to the power-frequency plasma control box 8 via a high-voltage line 9 and dual-electrode plasma discharge system 10, respectively. The ignition burner 11 is connected to the compressed air pipeline and gas pipeline via an ignition metal hose 7. The compressed air pipeline is equipped with a manual compressed air ball valve 1, a compressed air pressure regulating valve 2, and a pneumatic compressed air ball valve 3. The power-frequency plasma control box 8 is connected to the pneumatic compressed air ball valve 3 via a valve switch control cable 6. The gas pipeline is equipped with a manual gas ball valve 4 and a pneumatic gas ball valve 5. The power-frequency plasma control box 8 is connected to the pneumatic gas ball valve 5 via a valve switch control cable 6.
[0020] The dual electrodes 10 for plasma discharge are fixed to the upper flange cover as an integral unit and are a detachable structure. Before being installed in the ignition burner, the plasma discharge distance is manually confirmed and the distance between the front ends of the dual electrodes is controlled to be less than 10 mm. The gas between the dual electrodes is broken down by industrial frequency high voltage to generate high-temperature plasma. The mixture of coal gas and compressed air ignites when it contacts the plasma.
[0021] The power supply uses 220V industrial frequency AC power, which passes through the industrial frequency plasma control box to generate >10kV AC high voltage. Compared with traditional high-frequency DC high voltage, two electrodes are required to prevent discharge to the ground or to the equipment. This also effectively solves the problem of high-frequency plasma control boxes easily overheating after long-term use. Therefore, the industrial frequency plasma control box can be powered for a long time, continuously generating high-temperature plasma at the front ends of the two electrodes.
[0022] Control logic:
[0023] Step 1, power supply to the power frequency plasma control box 8;
[0024] Step 2: plasma discharge is continuously performed using the dual electrodes 10;
[0025] Step 3: The compressed air and gas pneumatic valves are automatically opened;
[0026] Step 4, ignition burner 11 ignites;
[0027] Step 5: Manual confirmation of fire or detection of fire by a flame detection device;
[0028] Step 6: The plasma discharge is terminated by using the dual electrodes 10 or by remote program control of the intermittent discharge.
[0029] Control mode: local control and remote control.
[0030] Discharge time: continuous discharge
[0031] Electrode discharge distance: <10mm
[0032] Burner type: premixed type, coal gas and compressed air are mixed in advance and then burned and ejected.
[0033] The utility model relates to a dual-electrode power-frequency long-time plasma igniter. When igniting a gas combustion device, the utility-frequency plasma control box can generate a high voltage of more than 10KV at the front end of the dual electrodes for plasma discharge, break down the air between the electrodes, and generate plasma. The plasma exists stably for a long time, can ignite a mixture of gas and compressed air, and can continue to discharge during the subsequent combustion process to maintain the stability of flame combustion.
