Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of burning apparatuses, and in particular to a gas-air mixing structure and a burner.

BACKGROUND

A gas mixing structure of a traditional burner is specifically described as follows: fresh air is sucked by a fan from an air inlet, and the fresh air is accelerated by a fan impeller to enter an air duct of a burning head; gas enters a gas pipe in the burning head through a gas pipeline, and enters a hole duct of a mixing disc at the most front end of the burning head through the gas pipe; the fresh air and the gas are preliminarily mixed in the mixing disc and ignited, and the gas and the air are further mixed and burnt out in the burning process. The traditional burner has a simple mixing structure, but the mixing of gas and air is not uniform. Preliminary mixing is performed before burning, and a burning manner by which mixing is performed while burning is employed. A large amount of NOx (>150 mg/Nm³) and CO are generated at a local high temperature, which pollutes an environment.

A staged-burning burner includes gas staging and air staging. By taking air staging as an example, primary air is mixed with gas to form primary premixed gas, and fuel-rich gas is formed due to excessive gas. The primary premixed gas reaches a burning disc through a primary premixed gas channel and is ignited to form central fuel-rich flame. Secondary air is directly mixed into the periphery of the fuel-rich flame through a secondary air channel, and fuel-lean flame with excessive air is formed around the fuel-rich flame. The staged-burning burner can complete mixing while burning, which can solve the pollution problem caused by the NOx (>150 mg/Nm³) and the CO to some extent, but its structure is complex, and burning flame is turbulent.

At present, there is also a full/upstream-premixing burner on the market, which employs a Venturi structure. Specifically, air is sucked into a fan through a Venturi air inlet of the fan, gas is sucked into the fan through a Venturi gas inlet of the fan, and the gas and the air are mixed inside the fan (explosion proof) under high-speed stirring of an impeller. Premixed gas after mixing enters an inner cylinder of a burning head having a metal surface, and the premixed gas reaches the surface of the burning head through metal fiber micro gaps and is ignited to form surface burning flame. Although this burner can achieve low emission of CO and NOx, it needs to be equipped with a special fan, a valve group and a Venturi gas-intake structure, such that the structure of the burner is complex, and a control system thereof is complex. The burner has the metal surface, which is likely to cause blockage, backfire and even explosion, resulting in a relatively large safety risk, and frequent maintenance is needed.

SUMMARY

Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, a gas-air mixing structure, and a burner are provided. The technical means employed by the present disclosure are as follows:

A gas-air mixing structure includes an external supporting structure arranged in a housing and a gas array pipe connected thereto. An air inlet is connected to one end of the housing, and a gas mixing channel is arranged between the gas array pipe and a mixed gas outlet. The gas array pipe includes a plurality of gas pipes arranged in an array manner, each of the gas pipes is provided with gas inlets and a plurality of gas output holes, and the plurality of gas output holes are provided on the leeward surface of each of the plurality of gas pipes.

Furthermore, the plurality of gas output holes are provided on the leeward surface of each of the plurality of gas pipes, and are circular holes or slits.

Furthermore, the sectional area of each of the plurality of gas output holes is 1/20 to ½ of the sectional area of the gas pipe.

Furthermore, several circular holes with a sectional area of 1/10 of the sectional area of the gas pipe are evenly distributed at the center of the leeward surface of each of the gas pipe with a spacing of 5 times the diameter of the circular hole.

Furthermore, at least one row of gas pipes arranged in an array manner is arranged.

Furthermore, when the gas pipes are in multiple rows, two adjacent rows are arranged in a staggered manner.

Furthermore, the external supporting structure includes a gas distribution cavity surrounding the gas array pipe, and the gas distribution cavity is provided with a gas intake mains. One end of each gas pipe is connected to the gas distribution cavity, or both ends of each gas pipe are connected to the gas distribution cavity.

Furthermore, the gas distribution cavity includes has a gas intake structure of annular type, C-shaped type, hollow square type, and single-side type.

The present disclosure further provides a burner, which includes the gas-air mixing structure.

According to the present disclosure, based on the Coanda effect, gas pipes for gas entry are (perpendicularly) arranged on an air channel, and the gas output holes are provided at intervals on the leeward surfaces of the gas pipes, such that air is uniformly mixed with gas ejected from the gas output holes by using the Coanda effect of air upon a circular pipe. Compared with the upstream-premixing manner by which a gas inlet is provided at an air inlet of a fan, the manner by which the air and the gas are mixed after the fan does not need the process in which the gas is sucked into the fan and then is mixed in the fan by means of the impeller, thereby avoiding the risk of deflagration of the gas and air mixture, which is caused by electrostatic discharge possibly caused by mechanical friction generated by rotation of the fan, and improving safety.
