Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a dry type low pollution combustor nozzle structure for whole machine operation. BACKGROUND

[0002] Gas turbine has the characteristics of compact structure, light weight, low maintenance cost, short starting time, etc. and can be widely used in distributed power generation field. With the increasingly strict environmental protection requirements, the pollution emission of gas turbine is more and more strict at home and abroad, especially the NOX emission in the flue gas of gas turbine is clearly required. Reducing NOX pollution emission is very important for gas turbine.

[0003] In the design of small gas turbine combustor, there are mainly two ways for low pollution emission combustion nozzle type: the first way is to spray diluent, generally water or steam, before the gas turbine combustor nozzle to reduce the temperature of the combustion area and reduce NOX emission, but it will bring adverse effects such as combustion chamber, turbine blade fouling, reducing the efficiency of the unit, shortening the service life of high temperature parts, etc.; the second way is to use premixed combustion, generally axial structure, but the axial size requirement is large, the swirling blade is difficult to process, in addition, due to the coaxial structure, the radial distribution of speed and fuel concentration is not easy to be uniform, and the generation of NOx pollution is high at low load. A small amount of combustor has radial premixed nozzle structure, but due to the compact structure, generally without central diffusion nozzle, the combustion is not stable, and problems such as backfire and oscillation easily occur. The radial premixed nozzle integrated with diffusion path cannot well solve the space arrangement problem of the inlet path, resulting in that the inlet pipe needs to be welded on the external flange, and the external flange occupies a large volume and occupies external space, so it can only be used for single cylinder component test of combustor, and cannot be applied to whole machine test and whole machine operation.

[0039] The small round cover plate 2 is divided into upper and lower halves, and is connected to the nozzle assembly 1 by welding to form a diffusion path plenum.

[0040] The large circular cover plate 3 is divided into two halves, an upper half and an lower half, which are connected to the nozzle assembly 1 by welding to form an inner premixing path gas collecting cavity therewith.

[0041] The semicircular cover plate 4 is divided into two halves, an upper half and an lower half, which are connected to the nozzle assembly 1 by welding to form an external premixing channel gas collecting cavity therewith.

[0042] The extruder is located in the center of the nozzle and is mainly composed of a nozzle pipe 5 and a nozzle 6. The nozzle pipe 5 and the nozzle 6 are connected together by welding. The extruder is welded to the nozzle assembly 1 by rivets 23. Air is freely distributed into the extruder.

[0043] The cup-shaped member 7 is cup-shaped and is mainly used to form a diffusion path. There are several rows of small holes on the side of the cup to play a rectifying role. Through welding with the nozzle assembly 1 and the pressing member 8, an irregular front diffusion path gas collection chamber 3-4 is formed.

[0044] The trumpet-shaped member 8 is trumpet-shaped and primarily serves to disperse the flame, lowering the temperature in the central area and reducing pollutant emissions. The end of the trumpet-shaped member 8 has several evenly distributed circular fuel holes 3-5. It is welded to the end surface and the nozzle assembly 1, primarily forming the inner premixed air passages 1-6. It is welded to the cup-shaped member 7, primarily forming the outer premixed air passages 2-9.

[0045] The clamping element 9 is I-shaped, with several rows of cooling holes 5-2 evenly spaced on its end surface at angles to the wall.

[0050] The nozzle end face cooling path is an air path, which enters the cooling air cavity 5 - 1 through the air holes 14 on the nozzle assembly 1 and enters the combustion area through the cooling holes 5 - 2 on the pressing piece 9 .

[0051] The design of this utility model was derived after one-dimensional, three-dimensional, and thermal life analysis. The advantage of this nozzle lies in its integrated diffusion and premixing paths, making it suitable for use in small gas turbine complete unit testing and full unit operation. This improves the stability of premixed combustion while reducing pollutant emissions. During full-temperature, full-pressure testing, the nozzle demonstrated the following specific values: OTDF no more than 0.15, RTDF no more than 0.10, total pressure recovery coefficient within 95%, and pollutant emissions no more than 50 mg / Nm³ (at 15% O₂).

[0052] The present invention is mainly used in the testing and operation of small gas turbine complete machines. Under the condition of ensuring the basic combustion parameters, full consideration is given to using the diffusion path for combustion during ignition and low operating conditions to ensure stable combustion. Under high operating conditions, the premixing path is used to reduce the pollutant emission value. The premixing path is divided into an internal premixing path and an external premixing path. The internal premixing path is mainly used to improve the stability under high operating conditions, and can be used to adjust the central combustion temperature and reduce pollutant emissions. The present invention provides a dry low-pollution nozzle that can be used for a small gas turbine complete machine. The various gas paths are integrated into the nozzle housing, eliminating external flanges and other connecting devices, and can be directly connected to the compressor casing. Under the condition of ensuring combustion performance, the present invention solves the problems of traditional dry low-pollution nozzles of small gas turbines, such as unstable combustion, substandard pollutant emissions, the need for external pipe connection, and the inability to be directly connected to the casing, which cannot be applied to the complete machine.

[0053] The fuel of the nozzle is natural gas. The whole nozzle includes five channels, diffusion channel, inner premixing channel, outer premixing channel, center air purge channel and nozzle end face cooling channel. The diffusion channel is mainly used for ignition and low load working condition, the premixing two channels are mainly used for high load working condition and adjusting the pollutant emission by adjusting the inner and outer premixing gas ratio. The center air purge channel mainly cools the center of the nozzle by air. The nozzle end face cooling channel mainly cools the nozzle end face by air and reduces the problem of corner backflow area, reduces the probability of corner backfire.
