Definitions

  • the invention relates to a biomass heating system and its components.
  • the invention relates to a flow-optimized biomass heating system.
  • Biomass heating systems in particular biomass boilers, in a power range from 20 to 500 kW are known. Biomass can be seen as a cheap, domestic, crisis-proof and environmentally friendly fuel. Wood chips or pellets, for example, are available as combustible biomass or as biogenic solid fuels.
  • the pellets mostly consist of wood chips, sawdust, biomass or other materials that have been compacted into small disks or cylinders with a diameter of approx. 3 to 15 mm and a length of 5 to 30 mm.
  • Wood chips also known as wood chips, wood chips or wood chips
  • wood chips is wood that is chopped up with cutting tools.
  • Biomass heating systems for fuels in the form of pellets and wood chips essentially have a boiler with a combustion chamber (the combustion chamber) and an adjoining heat exchange device. Due to the stricter legal regulations in many countries, some biomass heating systems also have a fine dust filter. Various other accessories are regularly available, such as fuel delivery devices, Control devices, probes, safety thermostats, pressure switches, exhaust gas recirculation, boiler cleaning and a separate fuel tank.
  • a device for supplying fuel, a device for supplying air and an ignition device for the fuel are regularly provided in the combustion chamber.
  • the device for supplying the air in turn normally has a fan with low pressure in order to advantageously influence the thermodynamic factors during the combustion in the combustion chamber.
  • a device for supplying fuel can for example be provided with a side insert (so-called cross-insert firing). The fuel is pushed into the combustion chamber from the side via a screw or a piston.
  • a furnace grate In the combustion chamber of a fixed bed furnace, a furnace grate is also usually provided, on which the fuel is essentially supplied and burned continuously.
  • This furnace grate stores the fuel for the combustion and has openings, for example slots, which allow the passage of part of the combustion air as primary air to the fuel.
  • the grate can be made rigid or movable.
  • grate firing systems in which the combustion air is not fed through the grate, but only from the side.
  • the combustion chamber can also regularly be divided into a primary combustion zone (direct combustion of the fuel on the grate and in the gas space above it before further combustion air is supplied) and a secondary combustion zone (post-combustion zone of the flue gas after another Air supply).
  • the combustion of the pellets or the wood chips essentially has two phases after drying.
  • the fuel is at least partially pyrolytically decomposed and converted into gas by high temperatures and air, which can be blown into the combustion chamber.
  • the (partial) part converted into gas and any remaining solid matter for example charcoal
  • the fuel outgasses, and the resulting gas and the charcoal contained in it are also burned.
  • Pyrolysis is the thermal decomposition of a solid substance in the absence of oxygen. Pyrolysis can be divided into primary and secondary pyrolysis.
  • the products of primary pyrolysis are pyrolysis coke and pyrolysis gases, whereby the pyrolysis gases can be divided into gases which are condensable at room temperature and gases which are not condensable.
  • Primary pyrolysis takes place at roughly 250-450 ° C and secondary pyrolysis at around 450-600 ° C.
  • the secondary pyrolysis that occurs subsequently is based on the further reaction of the primarily formed pyrolysis products.
  • the drying and pyrolysis take place at least largely without the use of air, since volatile CH compounds escape from the particle and therefore no air can reach the particle surface.
  • the gasification can be seen as part of the oxidation; the solid, liquid and gaseous products resulting from the pyrolytic decomposition are brought into reaction by the action of further heat. This is done with the addition of a gasification agent such as air, oxygen, water vapor or even carbon dioxide.
  • a gasification agent such as air, oxygen, water vapor or even carbon dioxide.
  • the lambda value during gasification is greater than zero and less than one.
  • the gasification takes place at around 300 to 850 ° C or even up to 1,200 ° C.
  • Complete oxidation with excess air (lambda greater than 1) then takes place by adding more air to these processes.
  • the end products of the reaction are essentially carbon dioxide, water vapor and ash. In all phases, the boundaries are not rigid, but fluid.
  • the combustion process can advantageously be regulated by means of a lambda probe provided at the exhaust gas outlet of the boiler.
  • the efficiency of combustion is increased by converting the pellets into gas, because gaseous fuel is better mixed with the combustion air and thus converted more completely, and lower emissions of pollutants, fewer unburned particles and ash (fly ash or dust particles) are generated .
  • exhaust gas recirculation devices In addition to supplying air to the combustion chamber, exhaust gas recirculation devices are also known which recirculate exhaust gas from the boiler to the combustion chamber for cooling and for renewed combustion.
  • Flue gas recirculation can take place under or over the grate.
  • the flue gas recirculation can be mixed with the combustion air or separately.
  • the exhaust from the combustion in the combustion chamber is fed to the heat exchanger so that the hot combustion gases flow through the heat exchanger to transfer heat to a heat exchange medium, which is usually water at around 80 ° C (usually between 70 ° C and 110 ° C ° C).
  • the boiler also usually has a radiation part, which is integrated into the combustion chamber, and a convection part (the heat exchanger connected to it).
  • the ignition device is mostly a hot air device or a glow device.
  • the combustion is started by supplying hot air to the combustion chamber, the hot air being heated by an electrical resistor.
  • the ignition device has a glow plug / glow rod or several glow plugs in order to heat the pellets or the wood chips through direct contact until combustion begins.
  • the glow plugs can also be equipped with a motor in order to remain in contact with the pellets or the wood chips during the ignition phase and then to retract so as not to remain exposed to the flames. This solution is prone to wear and tear and is complex.
  • a disadvantage of conventional biomass heating systems for pellets can be that pellets that fall into the combustion chamber can roll out of the grid or grate or slide off or land next to the grate and can get into an area of the combustion chamber where the temperature is lower or where the air supply is poor, or they can even fall into the lowest chamber of the boiler or the ash shaft. Pellets that do not remain on the grate or grate burn incompletely and thus cause poor efficiency, excessive ash and a certain amount of unburned pollutant particles. This applies to both pellets and wood chips.
  • the known biomass heating systems for pellets in the vicinity of the grid or grate and / or the exit of the combustion gas have, for example, baffles to hold back fuel elements at certain locations.

  • the axis of rotation 82 has a central axis 832 and on one side has a bearing notch 84 for holding the axis of rotation 82, as well as a sensor flange 85 for fastening an angle or rotation sensor (not shown).
  • the axis of rotation 82 is preferably provided with a hexagonal profile.
  • the holder of the fuel level flap 83 can be provided in such a way that it consists of two openings 834 with a hexagon socket.
  • the fuel level flap 83 can thus be simply plugged onto the axis of rotation 82 and fixed.
  • the fuel level flap 83 can be a simple sheet metal part.
  • the ember bed height measuring mechanism 86 is provided in the combustion chamber 24, preferably slightly offset to the center, above the fuel bed 28 or the combustion surface 258 so that the fuel level flap 83 is raised depending on the fuel that may be present depending on the height of the fuel or fuel bed 28 , whereby the axis of rotation 82 is rotated in dependence on the height of the fuel bed 28.
  • This rotation or also the absolute angle of the axis of rotation 82 can be detected by a non-contact rotation and / or angle sensor (not shown). This means that an efficient and robust ember bed height measurement can be carried out in the present case.
  • the fuel level flap 83 is set up in such a way that it is chamfered in relation to the center axis 823 of the axis of rotation 82.
  • a surface parallel 835 of a main surface 831 of the fuel level flap 83 can be arranged in such a way that it is provided at an angle with respect to the center axis 823 of the axis of rotation 82. This angle can preferably be between 10 and 45 degrees.
  • the surface parallel 835 and the central axis 823 are conceived in such a way that they (projected in the horizontal plane) can intersect in the central axis 823 to form angles.
  • the surface parallel 835 is normally not aligned parallel to the leading edge of the fuel level flap 83.
  • the fuel level flap 83 the exact height of the ember bed can be determined by means of a contactless rotation and / or angle sensor even in spite of different or varying fuel (wood chips, pellets).
  • the ergonomically sloping shape adapts ideally to the fuel, which is also introduced at an angle by the stoker worm, and ensures representative readings.
  • the fuel height (and quantity) remaining on the combustion surface 258 of the rotating grate 25 can also be precisely determined, with which the fuel supply and the flow through the fuel bed 28 can be regulated in such a way that the combustion process can be optimized.
  • FIG. 13 shows a horizontal cross-sectional view through the combustion chamber at the level of the secondary air nozzles 291 and along the horizontal section line A6 of FIG Fig. 5 .
  • a length of a secondary air nozzle 291 can be between 40 and 60 mm, for example.
  • a (maximum) diameter of the cylindrical or frustoconical secondary air nozzle 291 can be between 20 and 25 mm, for example.
  • the angle shown relates to the two secondary air nozzles 291 closest to the longer main axis of the oval.
  • the angle which is specified as 26.1 degrees by way of example, is measured between the center axis of the secondary air nozzle 291 and the longer of the main axes of the oval of the combustion chamber 24.
  • the angle can preferably in a range of 15 degrees to 35 degrees.
  • the remaining secondary air nozzles 291 can furthermore be provided with an angle of their center axis which functionally corresponds to that of the two secondary air nozzles 291 closest to the longer main axis of the oval for causing the vortex flow (for example with respect to the combustion chamber wall 24).
  • Fig. 19 10 secondary air nozzles 291 are shown, which are arranged in such a way that their central axis or orientation, which is shown with the respective dashed (central) lines, is provided acentric to the (symmetry) center of the oval of the combustion chamber geometry.
  • the secondary air nozzles 291 are not aimed at the center of the oval combustion chamber 24, but at its center or center axis (in Fig. 4 marked A2) over.
  • the center axis A2 can accordingly also be understood as an axis of symmetry relating to the oval combustion chamber geometry 24.
  • the secondary air nozzles 291 are aligned in such a way that they introduce the secondary air tangentially into the combustion chamber 24 when viewed in the horizontal plane.
  • the secondary air nozzles 291 are each provided as an inlet for the secondary air that is not oriented towards the center of the combustion chamber.
  • such a tangential inlet can also be used with a circular combustion chamber geometry.
  • All secondary air nozzles 291 are aligned in such a way that they each cause either a clockwise or counterclockwise flow. In this respect, each secondary air nozzle 291 can contribute to the creation of the eddy currents, with each secondary air nozzle 291 having a similar orientation. It should be noted above that in exceptional cases individual secondary air nozzles 291 can also be arranged neutrally (with alignment in the middle) or in opposite directions (with opposite alignment), although this can worsen the fluidic efficiency of the arrangement.
  • Fig. 20 shows three horizontal cross-sectional views for different boiler dimensions (50 kW, 100 kW and 200 kW) through the combustion chamber 24 of FIG Fig. 2 and 4th at the level of the secondary air nozzles 291 with information on the flow distributions in this cross-section in the respective nominal load case.
  • FIG Fig. 20 For clarification, the relevant flow velocities of these nozzle flows are explicitly shown in FIG Fig. 20 specified. It can be seen here that the resulting nozzle flows extend relatively far into the combustion chamber 24, with the result that strong eddy currents can be produced which cover a large part of the volume of the combustion chamber 24.
  • the arrow in the combustion chamber 24 of the CFD calculation for a 200 kW boiler dimensioning indicates the swirl or vortex direction of the vortex flows induced by the secondary air nozzles 291. This also applies to the other two boiler dimensions (50 kW, 100 kW) of the Fig. 20 .
  • a clockwise vortex flow (viewed from above) is given as an example.
  • Secondary air (preferably simply ambient air) is introduced into the combustion chamber 24 via the secondary air nozzles 291.
  • the secondary air in the secondary air nozzles is accelerated to more than 10 m / s in the nozzle when the load is high.
  • the penetration depth of the resulting air jets in the combustion chamber 24 is increased, which is sufficient to induce an effective vortex flow which extends over the majority of the combustion chamber volume extends.
  • Fig. 21 shows three vertical cross-sectional views for different boiler dimensions (50 kW, 100 kW and 200 kW) through the biomass heating system along the section line SL1 of Fig. 1 with information on the tangential entry of the secondary nozzle flows into this cross-section.
  • Fig. 21 roughly indicate the same gray tones areas with the same flow velocity.
  • candle-flame-shaped rotational flows S2 (cf. also Fig. 3 ) are present, which can advantageously extend to the combustion chamber ceiling 204.
  • the boiler tubes 32 are flowed through quite evenly in the direction of the inlet 33 at approximately 1-2 m / s due to the funnel explained above.
  • rotating grate elements 252, 253 and 254 instead of just three rotating grate elements 252, 253 and 254, two, four or more rotating grate elements can also be provided. With five rotating grate elements, for example, these could be arranged with the same symmetry and functionality as the three rotating grate elements presented.
  • the rotating grate elements can also be shaped or designed differently from one another. More rotating grate elements have the advantage that the crusher function is reinforced.
  • the rotational flow or vortex flow in the combustion chamber 24 can be provided clockwise or counterclockwise.
  • the combustion chamber ceiling 204 can also be provided inclined in sections, for example in a stepped manner.
  • the secondary air nozzles 291 are not limited to purely cylindrical bores in the combustion chamber bricks 291. These can also be designed as frustoconical openings or waisted openings.
  • the secondary (re) circulation can also only have secondary air or fresh air flowing through it, and in this respect not recirculate the flue gas, but only supply fresh air.
  • Fuels other than wood chips or pellets can also be used as fuels for the biomass heating system.
  • the presently disclosed biomass heating system can also be fired exclusively with one type of fuel, for example only with pellets.
