Definitions

  • the invention relates to a solid fuel heater with three-zone combustion air supply, in particular firewood gasification boilers.
  • the most advanced solid fuel heaters are equipped with a three-zone (or three-stage) combustion air supply - i.e., secondary air, lower primary air, and upper primary air.
  • Secondary air is admitted to the flame in the nozzle (an orifice, connecting upper fuel area, and bottom overfire area). Secondary air accomplishes combustion of inflammable gaseous elements of the flame - i.e., secondary combustion.
  • Lower primary air is supplied to the glowing fuel layer situated at the lower part of the fuel area.
  • Lower primary air accomplishes transformation of solid fuel into gaseous elements - i.e., primary combustion (or gasification) in the lower fuel layer.
  • Lower primary air defines output of the heater.
  • Upper primary air is supplied above the fuel layer in the upper part of the fuel area. Upper primary air increases intensity of primary combustion - by growth of the glowing layer. Upper primary air facilitates combustion of fuels with low mass burning rate (large pieces, soft or wet wood). Accelerates heating-up. Sometimes is also referred to as the pre-drying air.
  • Upper primary air and lower primary air are usually introduced through one common vent (of the primary air), at the inlet of which is also mounted the controlling element (damper), controlled either manually or by the electrically-driven boiler regulator depending on the output requirements (a signal emitted by flue gas sensors and water temperature sensors).
  • said common vent is divided into upper primary air vent and lower primary air vent.
  • said common vent (of the primary air) ends behind refractory metal sheet lining, installed on the side walls of the fuel area. Subsequently, a part of the primary air behind the lining flows upwards as the upper primary air, another part of the primary air behind the lining flows downwards as the lower primary air.
  • the equipment burning pellets is known from the Chinese document CN 204005952 U, containing combustion air supply, inlet and outlet orifices of primary, secondary and tertiary air, whereas said primary air, as well as secondary and tertiary air supplies, run in the separate piping lines i.e., vents.
  • Mentioned independent vents are designed to contain the first inlet orifice of the lower primary air and second inlet orifice of the upper primary air, whereas the lower primary air between the first inlet orifice and lower outlet orifice runs in the independent vent of the lower primary air and upper primary air between the second inlet orifice and upper outlet orifice runs in the independent vent of the upper primary air.
  • the summary of the technical design is that the damper, mounted on the arm, is assigned to each inlet orifice of supplies of primary air and secondary air, whereas the arm is attached to the shaft, whereas inlet orifices are equipped with their common moving orifice.
  • the preference of the invention is that it enables, in a simple manner, by movement of the orifice 5, to achieve any required ratio of all three types of air (secondary, upper primary, and lower primary) and, consequently, to optimally adjust the heater to effective combustion of various fuels as well as immediate combustion condition.
  • One electric drive is sufficient to control air supply ratios, whereas design of existing boilers demands two electric drives. I.e., another preference includes simplicity, and the consequent lower price, and higher reliability.
  • FIG. 1 Schematic representation of the heater - front view FIG. 2 Cross-section“A-A” of the heater, shown in Fig. 1
  • FIG. 3 Schematic axonometric (3D) projection view on air distributor; controlling orifice not shown for clarity.
  • FIG. 4 Schematic front view on the air distributor with the orifice in the position with a balanced supply of secondary air and lower primary air, burning normal fuel with standard mass burning rate (e.g., dry logs).
  • FIG. 5 Schematic front view on the air distributor with the orifice in the position with a maximum supply of secondary air, burning fuel with high mass burning rage (e.g., dry wooden chips).
  • FIG. 6 Front view on the air distributor with the orifice in the position with a maximum supply of upper primary air, burning fuel with low mass burning rate (e.g., wet or large logs).
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the heater 100 - a gasification boiler for manual loading of wood, with the fuel area 1 in the upper and overfire area 7 in the lower part.
  • the combustion air distributor 4 shaped as a cuboid, containing three mutually separated chambers, is located on the frontal face of the heater 100.
  • Each of these chambers has circular inlet orifices in the front wall to supply combustion air; the first inlet orifice 14.1 is intended for lower primary air supply, second inlet orifice 14.2 is intended for upper primary air supply, and the inlet orifice 14.3 is intended for secondary air supply.
  • Inner faces of inlet orifices 14.1 , 14.2 and 14.3 are equipped with round dampers 13, each of them is attached to the curved arm 7; all three arms 7 are tightly connected to the shaft 8, located outside of the distributor 4. Both ends of the shaft 8 are positioned in the couple of revolving fitments 6.
  • Arm geometry 7 is designed in a manner that common center of gravity of arms 7 and dampers 13 in all operating positions, i.e., from closed to fully opened, is located on the right side from the axis of rotation of the shaft 8, so as the dampers 13, when closed, are in their rest position by effects of gravity.
  • Rectangular, in horizontal direction moving, orifice 5 with the couple of rectangular controlling orifices 15, is located on the front surface of the distributor 4 (moving orifice 5 highlighted as a shaded surface).
  • the orifice 5 contains an elongated central slot 18, located horizontally in the middle of the orifice 5, facilitating entry of arms 7 and defining the minimum size of restriction of surface of the inlet orifices 14.1. 14.2, 14.3.
  • the orifice 5 provides achievement of the requested ratio of individual types of the air for all existing operating conditions (heating-up, combustion, burning-out) and all possible fuels (high mass burning rate, standard, low mass burning rate).
  • the function of the heater 100 is as follows: combustion air flows into the inlet orifices 14.1 , 14.2 and 14.3 of the distributor 4, using for example an FD fan. A blow of air swings out the dampers 13 with the arms 7 inside the distributor 4. The relative proportion of quantity of the air flowing through the individual inlet orifices 14.1 , 14.2 and 14 3 is defined by position of the orifice 5 through its controlling orifices 15.
  • the shaft 8, connecting the arms 7, identically slightly turns said arms 7 and all three dampers 13 are opened identically. Position of the orifice 5, shown in Fig.
  • Another alternative position of the orifice 5, shown in Fig. 5, defines flows of individual types of air as follows: secondary air reaches the maximum flow of ca. 85% at the inlet orifice 14.3. whereas flows of lower and upper primary types of air at the inlet orifices 14.1 and 14.2 are only minimal, defined by the surface of the central slot 18 of the orifice 5, i.e., ca. from 5 to 10%.
  • the orifice 5 is in such a position in case of already flaming up boiler, burning fuel with high mass burning rate (such as dry wooden chips).
  • FIG. 6 Another alternative position of the orifice 5, shown in Fig. 6, defines flows of individual types of air in a way that the upper primary air reaches the maximum flow of ca. 60% at the second inlet orifice 14 2.
  • Flow of the lower primary air at the first inlet orifice 14 1 is partly limited, reaching ca. 30%, and flow of the secondary air at the inlet orifice 14.3 is minimal as the flow is defined by the surface of the central slot 18 of the orifice 5, reaching ca. 10%.
  • the orifice 5 is in such a position in case of heated up or already flaming up boiler, burning fuel with low mass burning rate (such as wet or large logs).
