Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of plasma ignition devices, specifically a boiler plasma ignition device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern industrial production and energy supply systems, boilers are key pieces of equipment, and their efficient and stable operation is crucial. Boiler plasma ignition technology has emerged to address this need, aiming to start boilers in a clean and efficient manner, reducing the high costs and environmental pollution associated with traditional oil ignition. By emitting a high-temperature plasma jet through a plasma generator, it directly ignites primary air and pulverized coal, achieving cold air ignition and significantly revolutionizing ignition methods.
[0003] However, in practical applications, plasma ignition encounters the thorny problem of incomplete combustion. Fluctuations in coal quality are a major contributing factor. Coal from different mines and batches exhibits significant differences in key indicators such as volatile matter, calorific value, and moisture content. Low-volatile coal or inferior bituminous coal is difficult to ignite rapidly and completely by plasma. Regarding equipment, if the plasma generator is unstable, experiencing arc interruptions, the localized high-temperature environment cannot be maintained, forcing the coal powder combustion process to stop. An unreasonable burner design, such as turbulent internal airflow, insufficient contact and uneven mixing between coal powder and high-temperature plasma, will also hinder efficient combustion. Furthermore, if operating parameters are not precisely controlled, such as primary air velocity and coal powder concentration deviating from the optimal range, it will also lead to incomplete combustion, energy waste, increased carbon content in fly ash, and even safety hazards such as furnace deflagration.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

The plasma generator is installed on one side of the conveying pipe, the injection assembly is installed at the front end of the combustion chamber, and the rear end of the combustion chamber is connected to the conveying pipe. The output end of the plasma generator is provided with a thin tube, which is inserted into the conveying pipe to convey fuel particles. A fuel injection mechanism is provided above the combustion chamber to inject fuel into the combustion chamber. The injection assembly includes a nozzle and an regulator. The nozzle is connected to the combustion chamber, and the regulator is installed inside the nozzle.
[0007] Preferably, the nozzle includes a first conical tube, a second arc tube, a third conical tube, and reinforcing ribs.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages:
[0012] This utility model discloses a boiler plasma ignition device. The flame gas flow enters the nozzle and passes through the first cone tube, the second arc tube, and the third cone tube in sequence. When passing through the first cone tube, the flame gas flow is compressed and the flow velocity increases. Then, it passes through the second arc tube to form a stable high-speed flame gas flow.

This allows fuel particles that are not fully combusted or have little contact with oxygen to be fully combusted, forming a larger gas flow flame. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Referring to Figures 1-2, a boiler plasma ignition device according to this embodiment includes a conveying pipe 100, a plasma generator 200, a combustion chamber 300, and an injection assembly 400. The plasma generator 200 is installed on one side of the conveying pipe 100. The injection assembly 400 is installed at the front end of the combustion chamber 300, and the rear end of the combustion chamber 300 is connected to the conveying pipe 100. A thin tube 210 is provided at the output end of the plasma generator 200. The thin tube 210 is inserted into the conveying pipe 100, and fuel particles are conveyed in the conveying pipe 100. A fuel injection mechanism 310 is provided above the combustion chamber 300. The fuel injection mechanism 310 injects fuel into the combustion chamber 300. The injection assembly 400 includes a nozzle 410 and a regulator 420. The nozzle 410 is connected to the combustion chamber 300, and the regulator 420 is installed in the nozzle 410.
[0028] The nozzle 410 of this embodiment includes a first conical tube 411, a second arc tube 412, a third conical tube 413, and a reinforcing rib plate 414. The two ends of the second arc tube 412 are respectively connected to the first conical tube 411 and the third conical tube 413. The outer walls of the first conical tube 411, the second arc tube 412, and the third conical tube are provided with reinforcing rib plates 414.
[0029] The first tapered tube 411 in this embodiment includes a first front open end and a first rear open end. The inner diameter of the first rear open end is smaller than the inner diameter of the first front open end. The first rear end is connected to the second arc tube 412.
[0030] The third tapered tube 413 in this embodiment includes a third front open end and a third rear open end. The inner diameter of the third rear open end is smaller than the inner diameter of the third front open end. The third rear open end is connected to the second arc tube 412. The inner diameter of the third front open end is larger than the inner diameter of the first front open end.
[0031] In this embodiment, the regulator 420 has a structure with pointed ends. The middle part of the regulator 420 is connected to the inner wall of the third tapered tube 413 through a connecting rod. The regulator 420 and the third tapered tube 413 are coaxial.
[0032] Working principle: Fuel particle gas flow is conveyed in the delivery pipe 100. At the same time, the plasma generator 200 generates plasma gas flow and delivers it to the delivery pipe 100 through the thin pipe 210. The plasma gas flow mixes with the fuel particle gas flow and is then injected into the combustion chamber 300. Fuel is injected into the combustion chamber 300 and ignites upon contact with the high-temperature plasma gas flow. The plasma gas flow ignites the fuel particles together to form a high-temperature and powerful flame gas flow. The flame gas flow enters the nozzle 410 and passes through the first cone pipe 411, the second arc pipe 412, and the third cone pipe 413 in sequence. When it first passes through the first cone pipe 411, the flame gas flow is compressed and the flow velocity increases. Then, it forms a stable high-speed flame gas flow after passing through the second arc pipe 412. After entering the third cone pipe 413, the volume of the flame gas flow increases and the flow velocity decreases. It then impacts the regulator 420, creating a scattering effect. This allows fuel particles that are not fully combusted or have little contact with oxygen to be fully combusted, forming a larger gas flow flame.
[0033] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
