Abstract:
A burner includes a first tube portion formed with an ejection port; a second tube portion that extends in the first tube portion toward the ejection port and to which gaseous mixture flows in from a side opposite to the ejection port; a third tube portion arranged in the first tube portion and including an open end positioned on the ejection port side; a closing portion that closes the open end; a coupling wall portion that closes a gap between the first tube portion and the second tube portion; a partition wall that is coupled to the first tube portion and the third tube portion, the partition wall being formed with a communication path; and an igniting portion that is arranged on the ejection port side with respect to the partition wall.
Abstract:
A process for combustion with the aid of a liquid fuel and a gaseous oxidizer containing from 20% to 100% volume of oxygen, in which the fuel is injected with the aid of an injector. The injector, which has a height nulldnull, is placed inside a glory hole. The glory hole has a height nullDnull at the end thereof corresponding to the ejection of the gaseous mixture towards the zone of heating of a charge. A coefficient nullSnull in the following equation is maintained at a value less than or equal to 1 for substantially the entire duration of combustion to ensure the stability of the flame. 1 S = a 1 null V equivalent - a 2 null L a 3 null d null ( 2 - e - L / 10 null D ) witha1null2.5null10null11, secondsa2null1null10null9, dimensionlessa3null(0.875nullnullnull0.525)null10null6, dimensionless.In the above equation, nullLnull is defined as the distance between the end of the liquid fuel injector and the downstream end in the fluid flow direction of the glory hole. nullVequivalentnull is defined either as the equivalent velocity representative of the average velocity of the spray of drops of liquid fuel in the case of mechanical atomizers and being equal to 2.4 M/(nullnulld2 ), or a velocity equal to 0.5 times Vatomization, in other cases. nullnullnull is defined as the overall (volume) percentage of oxygen in the gases at the exit of the glory hole.
Abstract:
A regenerative tile structure for fluid fuel burners having a zirconium oxide coated metal flange shaped member providing a central orifice for producing a significant and very rapid increase in flame temperature by guided recirculation of hot flame gases.
Abstract:
A burner for the partial oxidation of liquid, carbonaceous fuel with steam and an oxygen-containing gas a well as the process in which this burner is used, wherein the parts of the outlet orifice of the burner directed towards the combustion chamber are wholly or partly provided with a coating or with a diffusion layer for protection against thermal load and/or corrosion.
Abstract:
A compact burner-boiler combination having an improved heating cycle for effecting substantial fuel saving and maximum boiler and combustion efficiency in a relatively simple and expedient manner. This is attained by a compact boiler construction utilizing an improved burner construction and method of combustion in which a liquid fuel is gasified by the heating products of combustion to form a homogeneous fuel gas-air mixture prior to combustion so as to effect a substantially stoichiometric burning of the fuel so as to result in a high velocity and a very high flame temperature (approx. 4100.degree. F.) and to cause the breakdown of a portion of the hydrocarbons into their basic component elements so as to make them available for diffusion burning. A small percentage or air is thereafter introduced tangentially into the burner flame to create the diffusion burning of the free hydrogen and carbon generated by the combustion process to produce a hot luminous optimum flame pattern and to maintain the high surface velocity so as to attain maximum transfer of heat energy to the heat transfer surfaces of the boiler by both radiation and conduction.
Abstract:
A self recuperative burner which can be fired with oil or gaseous fuel or both. The oil feed pipe is surrounded by a passage through which compressed air or fuel gas is conveyed to the burner head in such a way that it reduces the tendency for the oil to overheat. Additional cooling means are provided for the oil feed pipe. The burner has a burner head which is supported by a tubular part carried by a common wall between the combustion air supply passage and the combustion products exhaust passage, there being a sliding joint between the burner head and the tubular part which provides a circumferential series of arcuate gaps around the periphery of the burner head for the flow of combustion air between the burner head and the tubular part. The burner has an exhaust flue which is surrounded by a tubular part in which the combustion air inlet port is formed, the flue being cooled by incoming combustion air.
Abstract:
A burner throat that is shaped in accordance with the shape of the combustion chamber in which the throat is installed to afford flame shaping so that the flame is distributed throughout the combustion chamber. A burner throat formed of a plurality of individual segmental bricks, the totality of which define the throat shape. Each brick is shaped in respect to its position in the throat to direct the flame appropriately within the combustion chamber. A burner throat formed at the site of installation with a plurality of appropriately shaped segmental bricks.
