TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of incinerator, especially, relate to a turbulent flow enhanced incinerator. BACKGROUND
[0002] Mechanical grate incinerator is the mainstream technology for treating municipal solid waste at present. The hearth structure thereof usually comprises a combustion chamber with a grate as the core, and a first flue, a second flue and a third flue arranged in sequence for heat exchange. The high-temperature flue gas generated by combustion firstly performs radiation heat exchange in the first flue, and then enters the second and third flues to perform convection heat exchange for recovering heat energy.
[0003] However, in actual operation, when the high-temperature flue gas flows from the first flue with a large cross-sectional area into the second and third flues with a small cross-sectional area and needs to be diverted, due to flow inertia and sudden change of flow channel, serious uneven flow field distribution problems are easily caused at the entrance "throat" of the second and third flues. Specifically, the high-speed flue gas concentrates on one side of the flue entrance, while a large range of flow separation zone and backflow zone (i.e. "flow dead zone") is formed on the other side. This leads to that the flue gas cannot uniformly fill the entire flue cross section, resulting in many disadvantages: first, a large amount of high-temperature flue gas "short-circuits" through, and part of the heat exchange surface is in a low flow speed zone, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency; second, the high-speed flue gas concentrated on one side entrains fly ash and violently washes the first row of heat exchange tubes at the entrance, resulting in serious abrasion of the tube wall; third, the low-temperature zone on the leeward side makes the molten alkali metal salt in the flue gas easily adhere to the wall, causing coking and corrosion; fourth, the uneven flow field and the existing low-temperature zone provide a catalytic surface and a suitable temperature window for the recombination of pollutants such as dioxin, increasing the difficulty of pollutant control.
[0004] The prior art usually adopts the method of optimizing the overall flue geometry or adding a complex array of guide plates to improve the flow field. However, the former has great implementation difficulty and high cost when modifying the existing boiler, and the latter has a complex structure and is difficult to maintain. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0026] Incinerator is numerous, in the embodiment, incinerator is specifically mechanical grate incinerator, and grate 6 is provided in combustion chamber 1, and primary air inlet 7 is provided at the bottom of grate 6, and the side wall of combustion chamber 1 is provided with feeding port 8 above grate 6, and the inlet of first flue 2 is provided with secondary air inlet 9 towards combustion chamber 1.
[0027] Further, in the embodiment, the first flue 2 is up flue, the second flue 3 is down flue, and the third flue 4 is up flue, to form the smoke flue of return type.
[0028] The incinerator is used, the garbage is put into from the feeding port 8, and the drying, pyrolysis, combustion and burning-out process is completed on the grate 6. The air required for combustion is partly sent into as primary air from the primary air inlet 7, and the other part is sent into as secondary air from the secondary air inlet 9. The high-temperature flue gas generated by garbage combustion enters the heat exchange in the turn-around type flue gas flow channel formed by the first flue 2, the second flue 3 and the third flue 4. When the flue gas flows into the second flue 3 and the third flue 4, the inlet of the second flue 3 and the third flue 4 is provided with the turbulence enhancement inner member 5, the cross section of the turbulence enhancement inner member 5 is triangular, and the length of one side is opposite to the incoming direction of the flue gas, the turbulence enhancement inner member 5 can effectively disperse and divide the concentrated main airflow, guide the airflow to the leeward, guide part of the airflow to deviate from the original flow dead zone, significantly enhance the turbulence intensity, and make the flue gas more uniformly distributed on the cross section of the flue, which not only improves the utilization rate of the subsequent convection heat exchange surface, but also strengthens the combustion mixing, and through the elimination of the low-temperature zone and the improvement of the temperature uniformity, the coking and pollutant generation are inhibited. The utility model improves the flow field by setting the turbulence enhancement inner member 5 at the inlet of the second flue 3 and the third flue 4, and has the advantages of simple structure, small implementation difficulty and low cost.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, with reference to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 , the turbulence enhancement inner member 5 comprises an outer shell 51 with a triangular cross section and a circular tube 52 arranged in the middle of the outer shell 51, a layer of refractory material 53 is filled between the circular tube 52 and the outer shell 51, the circular tube 52 is communicated with the secondary air supply system of the incinerator to form an air cooling channel.
[0030] The outer shell-refractory layer-central circular tube forms a solid and high-temperature-resistant turbulence enhancement inner member 5, the circular tube 52 is communicated with the secondary air supply system of the incinerator to form an air cooling channel, the existing secondary air of the system is used to cool the turbulence enhancement inner member 5 to prevent high-temperature deformation or burning loss, and the reliability is greatly improved, and the cooling air is heated and then enters the first flue 2 as secondary air for recycling.
[0031] Calculation shows that even if the flue gas temperature at the inlet of the second flue 3 is as high as 1000 DEG C, under the action of the cooling air, the temperature of the pipe wall of the circular tube 52 can be controlled below 400 DEG C, which is far below the high-temperature strength limit of the refractory material, the temperature of the air after cooling increases by about 70 DEG C, then enters the first flue 2 from the secondary air inlet 9, and energy recycling is realized.
[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the circular tube 52 and the outer shell 51 are connected through a plurality of cage structures 54, and the plurality of cage structures 54 are arranged along the length direction of the circular tube 52 and the outer shell 51.
[0033] The cage structure 54 serves as a framework of the refractory layer 53 and the circular tube 52, which can ensure the bonding strength of the refractory layer 53 and the circular tube 52, prevent the refractory layer 53 from peeling off or falling off the circular tube 52 at high temperature, and uniformly transmit the load of the shell 51 and the refractory layer 53 to the circular tube 52. The cage structure 54 is arranged at intervals to avoid the thermal bridge effect and save materials while ensuring the connection strength.
[0034] As a preferred embodiment, a specific form of the cage structure 54 is provided, which includes a plurality of connecting rods 541, one end of each connecting rod 541 being fixedly connected to the circular tube 52, and the other end being fixedly connected to a triangular vertex or a midpoint of a side length of the shell 51, and a support rod 542 being fixedly connected between adjacent connecting rods 541.

[0037] Specifically, the freely supported end accommodates and supports the pipe through a U-shaped sliding groove welded to the furnace body. The sliding groove has a radial gap between the outer wall of the pipe and the sliding groove, and a limiting plate is arranged above the sliding groove, so as to limit the vertical and lateral displacement of the pipe while allowing it to freely slide in the axial direction to release thermal expansion stress. The refractory layer and the shell are attached to the circular tube, and expansion joints are arranged at both ends of the circular tube.
[0038] As a preferred embodiment, the shell 51 and the circular tube 52 are both made of metal, and the circular tube 52 is a 310S stainless steel pipe. In this embodiment, a 310S stainless steel pipe with an outer diameter of 219 mm and a wall thickness of 8-20 mm is preferred. 310S stainless steel has excellent oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and sufficient strength at high temperatures, making it an ideal choice for such high-temperature flue gas environments.
