[0068] The ignition burner generates a plasma flame by receiving high-temperature plasma. Compared to a conventional flame, the plasma flame has a higher temperature and greater energy density, ensuring more uniform and complete combustion of pulverized coal under various environmental conditions. This stable combustion process effectively avoids combustion fluctuations caused by incomplete or uneven ignition, thereby improving the stability and combustion efficiency of the boiler operation.

[0074] The design of the electrical modules ensures the stability and safety of the power supply, reducing the risk of electrical failures during the ignition process.

[0075] According to embodiments of this disclosure, a plasma ignition method is also proposed, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of a plasma ignition method provided by an embodiment of this disclosure. The method is applied to a plasma ignition system and includes the following steps:

[0076] Step 701: In response to the ignition command to the boiler, the ignition mode of the boiler is activated so as to ignite the pulverized coal in the boiler based on the ignition mode.

[0077] An ignition command is an order issued by the operator to initiate the boiler's ignition process. The ignition command is the starting point of the entire ignition sequence, instructing the plasma ignition system to begin the ignition operation. An ignition mode refers to a specific operating mode that the boiler enters after receiving the ignition command. This mode includes the specific steps and parameters required for ignition, such as igniting pulverized coal, temperature control, and air supply. The ignition mode typically involves various control strategies for the boiler's ignition process to ensure a smooth start-up and normal operating condition.

[0078] Responding to the ignition command and initiating the ignition mode is a crucial step in the boiler startup process. Precise control of the ignition process can prevent safety accidents caused by improper ignition, such as boiler explosions and fires. Activating the ignition mode ensures that the pulverized coal is ignited under controlled conditions, thereby reducing safety risks during startup.

[0079] Step 702: If the ignition mode is determined to be activated, monitor the ignition temperature of the boiler.

[0080] By monitoring the boiler's ignition temperature using a flame detector probe, it can be ensured that the boiler reaches a certain temperature to fully ignite the pulverized coal. If the temperature is too low, the fuel may not burn completely, affecting the ignition effect or even causing ignition failure. Monitoring the ignition temperature ensures that the boiler is within a suitable temperature range during startup, preventing fuel ignition failure.

[0081] Step 703: In response to the control command for the ignition temperature, the ignition temperature is adjusted until the ignition temperature is within a preset ignition temperature range; the control command includes the preset ignition temperature range.

[0082] Control commands are instructions to adjust the ignition temperature. During ignition, precise control of the plasma flame temperature may be necessary to ensure effective ignition of the pulverized coal. Control commands contain the operator's or automation system's requirements for ignition temperature adjustments. Preset ignition temperature range: This is a temperature range set to ensure a stable and safe ignition process. Within this range, the plasma flame temperature is considered suitable for effectively igniting the pulverized coal. The preset ignition temperature range is typically determined based on the ignition characteristics of the pulverized coal, boiler design parameters, and safety considerations.

[0083] Ignition temperature is one of the key factors affecting the combustion efficiency of pulverized coal. By adjusting the ignition temperature to a preset range, the combustion process of pulverized coal can be optimized, making it more complete and efficient. This not only improves the thermal efficiency of the boiler but also reduces pulverized coal waste and emissions.

[0084] The plasma ignition method disclosed herein includes an ignition module, an electrical module, a gas supply module, a drive module, a cooling module, and a control module. The ignition module is placed on the boiler wall, and the electrical module, gas supply module, drive module, cooling module, and control module are respectively connected to the ignition module. Pulverized coal is placed inside the boiler. The drive module, gas supply module, cooling module, and control module are respectively connected to the electrical module. The gas supply module and cooling module are respectively connected to the control module. The ignition module generates a plasma flame to ignite the pulverized coal. The electrical module supplies power to the ignition module, gas supply module, drive module, cooling module, and control module. The gas supply module assists combustion in the ignition module. The drive module drives the ignition module. The cooling module controls the temperature of the ignition module. The control module controls the operation of the ignition module, electrical module, gas supply module, drive module, and cooling module. Compared with related technologies, the embodiments of this disclosure ignite pulverized coal in a boiler by using a plasma ignition system to generate a plasma flame, eliminating the need for fuel oil and reducing ignition costs.

[0085] As a refinement of step 703, when adjusting the ignition temperature until it falls within a preset ignition temperature range, this can be achieved, but is not limited to, by the following methods: if the ignition temperature is greater than the preset ignition temperature range, the ignition temperature is reduced until it falls within the preset ignition temperature range; if the ignition temperature is less than or equal to the preset ignition temperature range, the ignition temperature is increased until it falls within the preset ignition temperature range. By controlling the ignition temperature within the optimal range, pulverized coal can be ignited quickly and stably, reducing ignition time and improving boiler start-up efficiency.

[0086] In summary, the embodiments disclosed herein can achieve the following effects:

[0087] This embodiment of the invention utilizes a plasma ignition system to generate a plasma flame to ignite pulverized coal in a boiler, eliminating the need for fuel oil and reducing ignition costs.
