Claims
- 1. In a gasification burner comprising: a primary air feed stub; an antechamber for mixing an at least partly evaporated liquid fuel with primary air, having an inlet for evaporated liquid fuel and a primary air inlet; a catalytic device downstream of the antechamber for converting the fuel vapor air mixture into a fuel gas; a mixing chamber downstream of the catalytic device, and having inlets for said fuel gas and secondary air, for mixing the fuel gas with secondary air to form a fuel-gas mixture; means defining an annular space concentrically surrounding the antechamber, the catalytic device, the mixing chamber, said annular space separated from the antechamber by a ring wall, and having an inlet coupled to said primary air feed stub; a conically flared combustion chamber terminatd by a perforated burner plate of porous material; an ignition chamber arranged between the combustion chamber and the mixing chamber coupling the combustion chamber to the mixing chamber such as to feed the fuel gas-air mixture from the mixing chamber to the combustion chamber, said annular space also surrounding said ignition chamber; a front chamber, located upstream of the antechamber, which changes into a ring canal which surrounds the inlet for evaporated liquid fuel of the antechamber comletely and the annular space and the catalytic device at least over part of their length; a fuel inlet coupled to the end of said ring canal remote from said front chamber; a heat source contained in said ring canal for evaporating the fuel; a heat source contained in said annular space for preheating the primary air during the starting process and for aiding in the event of load changes; radial canals contained in said ring wall forming the primary air inlet to said antechamber and connecting said annular space to said antechamber; homogenizing devices, arranged in said antechamber and in said mixing chamber; and means separating said ignition chamber from said mixing chamber such as to prevent backfiring, the improvement comprising:
- (a) the annular space also enclosing the conically flared combustion chamber in ring fashion and extending up to the immediate vicinity of the burner plate;
- (b) the primary air feed stub opening into the annular space in the immediate vicinity of the burner plate; and
- (c) baffles disposed in said annular space conducting the primary air stream being fed in from said primary air feed stub to the radial canals of the ring wall in a winding flow path about the combustion chamber and the ignition chamber.
- 2. The improvement according to claim 2, and further including a perforated wall separating the ignition chamber from the combustion chamber and wherein the perforated area of the burner plate is larger than the perforated area of said perforated wall.
- 3. The improvement according to claim 2, and further including a flame monitor in the wall of ignition chamber aimed at said perforated wall.
- 4. In a gasification burner comprising: a primary air feed stub; an antechamber for mixing an at least partly evaporated liquid fuel with primary air, having an inlet for evaporated liquid fuel and a primary air inlet; a catalytic device downstream of the antechamber for converting the fuel vapor air mixture into a fuel gas; a mixing chamber downstream of the catalytic device, and having inlets for said fuel gas and secondary air, for mixing the fuel gas with secondary air to form a fuel gas-air mixture; means defining an annular space concentrically surrounding the antechamber, the catalytic device, the mixing chamber, said annular space separated from the antechamber by a ring wall, and having an inlet coupled to said primary air feed stub; a conically flared combustion chamber terminated by a perforated burner plate of porous material; an ignition chamber arranged between the combustion chamber and the mixing chamber coupling the combustion chamber to the mixing chamber such as to feed the fuel gas-air mixture from the mixing chamber to the combustion chamber, said annular space also surrounding said ignition chamber; a front chamber, located upstream of the antechamber, which changes into a ring canal which surrounds the inlet for evaporated liquid fuel of the antechamber completely and the annular space and the catalytic device at least over part of their length; a fuel inlet coupled to the end of said ring canal remote from said front chamber; a heat source contained in said ring canal for evaporating the fuel; a heat source contained in said annular space for preheating the primary air during the starting process and for aiding in the event of load changes; radial canals contained in said ring wall forming the primary air inlet to said antechamber and connecting said annular space to said antechamber; homogenizing devices, arranged in said antechamber and in said mixing chamber; and means separating said ignition chamber from said mixing chamber such as to prevent backfiring, the improvement comprising:
- (a) the annular space also enclosing the conically flared combustion chamber in ring fashion and extending up to the immediate vicinity of the the burner plate;
- (b) the primary air feed stub opening into the annular space in the immediate vicinity of the burner plate;
- (c) baffles disposed in said annular space conducting the primary air stream being fed in from said primary air feed stub to the radial canals of the ring wall in a winding flow path about the combustion chamber and the ignition chamber; and
- (d) the ignition chamber being conically flared out in the flow direction and the exit cross section of the ignition chamber being equal to the entrance cross section of the combustion chamber.
- 5. The improvement according to claim 2 wherein the side walls of the ignition chamber and the combustion chamber consist of metal with a ceramic lining.
- 6. The improvement according to claim 5, wherein said ceramic lining is composed of ceramic rings.
- 7. The improvement according to claim 6 wherein said burner plate and said perforated wall are composed of several plate parts.
- 8. The improvement according to claim 7, wherein said ceramic rings and plate parts, respectively, are connected to each other by a slot and key.
- 9. The improvement according to claim 2 and further including a flange in the area height of the mixing chamber, said flange laterally extending beyond the other parts, and having feed canals to the primary air feed stub and to a secondary air connection leading to the mixing chamber as well as breakthroughs for ignition electrodes disposed at the ignition chamber.
- 10. The improvement according to claim 9, wherein said flange includes means for fastening it to the wall of a boiler.
- 11. The improvement according to claim 9, wherein said flange has a breakthrough for a flame monitor.
