Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to a burner assembly and, more particularly, to a burner assembly which discharges a plurality of streams of coal and air for combustion in a furnace and which has a tiltable discharge portion to vary the discharge pattern.
  • the burner assembly disclosed in the above patent was designed for a particular furnace configuration, and, as such, is not suitable for other special application furnaces, such as, for example, tangentially fired furnaces.
  • the burner assembly of the present invention includes an annular passage through which fuel passes before being split up into a plurality of streams near the discharge end of the burner assembly, to produce a plurality of individual flame patterns upon ignition.
  • the outer barrel of the assembly receives the fuel and a discharge nozzle is tiltable relative to the outer barrel to enable the assembly to be utilized in multiple furnace configurations, including tangentially fired furnaces.
  • the reference numeral 10 refers in general to the burner assembly of the present invention.
  • the burner assembly 10 includes a tubular inlet barrel 12 and a discharge nozzle 14 connected to, and forming an extension of, the inlet barrel 12 in a manner to be described.
  • a cap 16 (Fig. 2) extends over one end 12a of the inlet barrel and the other end 12b is enlarged for reasons to be described.
  • the discharge nozzle 14 is connected to, and forms an extension of, the inlet barrel 12.
  • the discharge nozzle 14 has an enlarged end portion 14a extending over the enlarged end portion 12b of the inlet barrel 12, while the other end 14b of the nozzle 14 is open and is configured in a manner to be described.
  • a duct 24 is connected to the barrel 12 and registers with an opening 12c in the wall of the barrel.
  • the duct extends tangentially with respect to the annular passage 20 for introducing a stream of fuel, preferably in the form of pulverized coal mixed with air into the passage, as will be explained in detail later.
  • That portion of the nozzle 14 extending from its enlarged portion 14a to its end 14b has a rectangular cross section which tapers in a direction towards the end 14b.
  • a divider cone 26 is disposed within the nozzle 14 and extends from the enlarged portion 14a of the nozzle 14 to its end 14b.
  • the cone 26 is hollow and thus defines a central passage 27 and has a taper substantially corresponding to the taper of the nozzle 14.
  • the cone 26 has a diameter less than that of the nozzle 14 to define an annular passage 28 surrounding the central passage 27.
  • the inlet ends of both the central passage 27 and the annular passage 28 are located immediately adjacent the enlarged portion 14a of the nozzle 14 and their discharge ends extend flush with the end 14b of the latter member.
  • splitters 30 extend within, and are circumferentially spaced around, the annular passage 28.
  • the splitters 30 are spaced at 90° intervals and each is substantially V-shaped with its respective apex disposed adjacent the inlet end of the annular passage 28.
  • the other ends of the splitters 30 extend flush with the end 14b of the nozzle 14 and therefore the discharge end of the annular passage 28.
  • the nozzle 14 can be molded into a integral unit which would include the cone 26 and the splitters 30, as disclosed in U. S. patent application serial number 097,547, assigned to the assignee of the present invention, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
  • the enlarged portion 12a of the barrel 12 is connected to the enlarged end portion 14a of the nozzle 14 by a gasket seal assembly, referred to in general by the reference numeral 32.
  • the seal assembly 32 abuts the end of the inlet member 12 as well as a corresponding inner surface portion of the discharge member 14 and is formed by an annular mesh member 34 and an annular frame member 36.
  • the frame member 36 is U-shaped in cross-section is crimped around the inner portion of the mesh member 34 and can be secured to the barrel 12 in any known manner, such as by welding.
  • the nozzle 14 is tilted relative to the barrel 12 by means of a pair of arms 40a (Fig. 1) and 40b (Fig. 2) respectively attached to diametrically opposed outer surfaces of the nozzle 14.
  • the arms 40a and 40b extend horizontally, as viewed in Fig. 1, and are attached to a linkage mechanism (not shown) which produces an up-and-down movement, causing the nozzle 14 to pivot about an axis A.
  • This linkage mechanism is fully disclosed in U.S. patent application serial number (attorney's docket number 10283.401), filed on August 9, 1994, and assigned to the assignee of the present invention, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
  • This pivotal, or tilting movement of the nozzle 14 about the axis A is accommodated by the gasket seal assembly 32 which also seals against any leakage of the fuel/air mixture.
  • the burner assembly 10 would be disposed in axial alignment with a through opening formed in a front wall of a conventional furnace having a combustion chamber immediately adjacent the opening. In most installations, similar openings would be provided in the furnace front wall for accommodating additional burner assemblies identical to the burner assembly 10. Also, a windbox and one or more air nozzles would be provided for introducing additional, or secondary, air into the furnace as disclosed in the above-identified U.S patent application serial number (attorney's docket number 10283.401). It is also understood that appropriate igniters (not shown) can be provided adjacent the outlet of the assembly 10 for igniting the coal as it discharges from the nozzle. Since the igniters are of a conventional design they have not been shown in the drawings in the interest of clarity.
  • fuel preferably in the form of pulverized coal suspended or entrained within a source of primary air
  • fuel is introduced from an external source into the duct 24, and passes through the duct into the interior of the barrel 12 where it swirls through the annular passage 20. Since the pulverized coal is heavier than the air, the pulverized coal will tend to move radially outwardly towards the inner wall of the barrel 12 under the centrifugal forces thus produced.
  • the stream of coal and air pass from the interior of the barrel 12 to the interior of the nozzle 14 and, as a result of the above-mentioned centrifugal forces, the stream consists of a relatively large portion of coal and a relatively small portion of air.
  • the stream then enters the outer annular passage 28 defined between the nozzle 14 and the divider cone 26 and encounter the splitters 30. The stream is thus split into four equally spaced streams which discharge from the outlet defined by the respective ends of the discharge member 14 and the cone 26.
  • the provision of multiple flame patterns results in a greater flame radiation, a lower average flame temperature and a shorter residence time of the gas components within the flame at a maximum temperature, all of which, contribute to reduce the formation of nitric oxides.
  • the provision of the tangential inlet to the annular passage 20 provides excellent distribution of fuel, resulting in more complete combustion and reduction of carbon loss and making it possible to use individual burners with capacities significantly higher than otherwise could be used.
  • the nozzle 14 may be tilted, or pivoted, relative to the inlet member 12 before operation to accommodate different furnace configurations and requirements.
