DESCRIPTION

Vertical solid fuel boiler.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION 5

The present invention is encompassed in the field of vertical boilers, that is, with the household arranged in a vertical position, operating on solid fuels, such as biomass, coal, wood, etc.
 10
Said invention essentially proposes a boiler comprising a home divided into two sections. A lower section, where partial combustion of the solid fuel is achieved, and an upper section, where the combustion of the gases generated in the lower section is completed.
 fifteen
Between both sections of the home there is a narrowing that allows to increase the speed of the gases of the partial combustion before their mixing with the secondary air flow to complete the combustion.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 20

In reference to the state of the art, it should be mentioned that different types of boilers are known and marketed for both domestic and industrial use.

Boilers for burning solid fuel generally comprise a dispenser that delivers solid fuel to a home or combustion chamber.

At the bottom of the home there is a grill on which solid fuel is burned. Said grill is also capable of retaining and unloading the ashes towards an ashtray located below it. 30

The combustion exhaust gas generated in the home passes through a heat exchanger transferring said heat to the water for later use, for example, in heating systems, domestic hot water, etc.
 35
In order to carry out the combustion of the solid fuel deposited on the grill it is necessary to supply said combustion chamber with a certain amount of air.

The combustion technology currently used in solid fuel boilers includes a gasification phase (incomplete combustion) of the fuel arranged on the grill, using a primary air flow that penetrates the bottom of the home, in the opposite direction to the introduction of the solid fuel, passing through the bed of said solid fuel deposited on the grill.

Subsequently, a complete or total combustion phase is carried out, where a second quantity of the air necessary to complete the combustion of the gas generated in the previous phase is provided.

For example, in patent document EP 2083215, published on July 29, 2009, shows a vertical domestic boiler fueled by granular biomass fuel, such as pellets.

The boiler comprises a home made up of one or more vertical parts, which are formed with cross sections with a certain and different geometry to achieve the ascent of combustion gases at a certain speed that guarantees that said gases remain inside the home until complete combustion has been achieved.
 5
The home is arranged inside a chamber through which the air for combustion circulates, which reaches the home through the grill, and especially, through conical holes made in the wall of the home.

The present solution has the disadvantage that the secondary air flow is not injected in such a way that it creates a turbulence that facilitates it to mix completely with the gases, with a view to achieving the complete combustion of said gases.

Nor does this solution show that said secondary air flow can be controlled, guaranteeing the complete combustion of the material effectively and efficiently. fifteen

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In view of the foregoing, the present invention relates to a vertical solid fuel boiler. twenty

The boiler comprises a home in which the solid fuel is introduced in the opposite direction to an upward primary air flow. This allows a uniform solid fuel bed to be configured, while accelerating its reaction process.
 25
The primary air flow, once introduced into the home through its lower part, crosses a grill arranged at the lower end of the home. The grill supports the solid fuel bed on an ashtray where the ashes produced by the combustion of the solid fuel are going to stop, while the gases generated ascend through the home and reach their complete combustion when mixed with a secondary air flow that It is introduced in the 30th home.

On the other hand, the upper end of the home has fluid communication with a heat exchanger system, where the energy content of the combustion exhaust gases is used. 35

The home is divided into two sections. A lower section, where partial combustion of the solid fuel is achieved, and an upper section, where, thanks to the introduction of the secondary air flow, the combustion of the gases generated in the lower section is completed. 40

The lower section of the home starts from the upper face of the grill increasing its cross section in the form of a first inverted cone, followed by a first straight section, whose diameter is equal to the larger diameter of the first inverted cone, and terminated in a conical section .
 Four. Five
Instead, the upper section starts from a second inverted cone with a smaller diameter equal to or less than the smaller diameter of the conical section of the lower section, followed by a second straight section, whose diameter is equal to the larger diameter of the second inverted cone.

Between the lower section and the upper section of the home there is a narrowing in the form of a third straight section, the diameter of which is equal to or less than the smaller diameter of the conical section of the lower section.

This novel structural configuration of the home allows solid fuel to accumulate in its lower section by copying the geometry of the inner wall of the first inverted cone, allowing the position of the flame front to be regulated, that is, the combustion reaction area is positioned at different height, depending on the power required to the boiler.
 5
Likewise, the narrowing arranged between both sections of the home, allows to increase the speed of the current of the gases generated in the lower section. In this way, when the collision occurs between said gas stream and the secondary air flow, it generates a turbulence that facilitates the mixing of both fluids, the combustion of the gases in the upper section of the home being completed, before be drawn into the heat exchanger system 10.

Another advantage is that the home and the heat exchanger system have been arranged in separate modules, facilitating the work of access of the equipment to the boiler rooms, as well as, achieving the compaction of the boiler, reducing its dimensions and allowing its assembly modular.

As Figure 2 shows, the solid fuel feed (2) to the boiler, for example, pelletized granulated biomass, part of a fuel tank (16) included in the boiler itself.

The loading of said fuel tank (16) can be carried out manually, by emptying solid fuel bags (2), or automatically, by discharging the fuel from another larger tank by means of a 50 auger system or pneumatic system (not seen in the figures).

To detect the need to fill the fuel tank (16), a sensor (not seen in the figures) can be placed inside it that gives visual and / or audible indications when the amount of solid fuel (2) available in said tank is less than a preset value.
 5
The solid fuel (2) is introduced into the home (1) in the opposite direction to an upward primary air flow (3) that enters said home (1) from its bottom. The primary air flow (3) is driven by the fan (17) arranged below the home (1).

As can be seen in figures 2 and 3, the home (1) is divided into two sections (1.1, 1.2). 10 A lower section (1.1), where partial combustion of solid fuel (2) is achieved, and an upper section (1.2), where, by the introduction of a secondary air flow (7), combustion is completed of the gases generated in the lower section (1.1).

In the lower section (1.1) is where the solid fuel bed (2) formed by a grill (4) is formed, which is arranged at the lower end of the home (1). The grill (4) is crossed by the primary air flow (3).

In other embodiments, the primary air flow (3) may be comprised of recirculated combustion gases from the bypass (13) disposed in the outlet duct 20 (20) of the exhaust gases, or a mixture of recirculated combustion air and gases.

The grill (4) is arranged on an ashtray (5), the ashes produced by the combustion of the solid fuel (2) will stop, while the combustion-produced gases rise through the home (1) .

In this sense, the solid fuel (2) is retained on the grill (4) until it becomes ashes, preventing the boiler from decreasing due to the loss of solid fuel (2). 30

Preferably, the grill (4) develops a circular motion, which prevents the accumulation of ashes on it, while homogenizing the solid fuel bed (2).
 35
Likewise, it is preferred that an endless screw (10) be arranged under the grill (4) that allows the ash to be evacuated to the ashtray (5).

The lower section (1.1) of the home (1) starts from the upper face of the grill (4) increasing its cross section in the form of a first inverted cone (1.1.1). 40

Precisely, the solid fuel bed (2) is formed in the limited space between the upper face of the grill (4) and said first inverted cone (1.1.1) of the lower section (1.1) of the home (1), which allows the combustion reaction area to be positioned at a different height depending on the power generated, the latter conditioned by the primary air flow (3) that passes through said fuel bed.

Following the first inverted cone (1.1.1), a first straight section (1.1.2) is arranged whose diameter is equal to the largest diameter of the first inverted cone (1.1.1).
 fifty
Said first straight section (1.1.2) helps to homogeneously shape the solid fuel bed (2), hence the need for the solid fuel supply (2) to be made as centered as possible in the home (1) .

The lower section (1.1) of the home (1) ends in a conical section (1.1.3) arranged after said first straight section (1.1.2).

Preferably, the entry of solid fuel (2) into the home (1) is carried out through a dispenser (11) arranged in fluid communication with the conical section (1.1.3) of the lower section (1.1).

Because the boiler works in depression and it is of interest that the primary air flow (3) passes through the solid fuel bed (2), the solid fuel inlet (2) must be sealed 10 at the passage of said air flow . For this, it is preferred that the dispenser (11) be provided with a rotary valve (12) of the honeycomb type.

Following the conical section (1.1.3), that is, between the lower section (1.1) and the upper section (1.2) of the home (1), a narrowing is arranged in the form of a third straight section (1.3), whose diameter is equal to or smaller than the smaller diameter of the conical section (1.1.3) of the lower section (1.1).

Preferably, the secondary air flow (7) is provided through said third straight section (1.3). twenty

Likewise, it is preferred that a volute-shaped carving (not shown in the figures) be arranged on the inner wall of the third straight section (1.3) that accelerates and favors the mixing between the gases generated in the lower section (1.1) and the secondary air flow (7), by creating turbulence between both fluids by means of a spiral movement. 25

Preferably, the secondary air flow (7) is regulated according to the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gases. For this, a lambda probe (8) can be used, arranged next to the exhaust duct (20) of the exhaust gases, which measures the oxygen concentration and acts on the speed of a fan (9) that injects the flow of 30 secondary air (7) in the home (1).

For its part, the upper section (1.2) of the home (1) part of a second inverted cone (1.2.1) with a smaller diameter equal to or smaller than the smaller diameter of the conical section (1.1.3) of the lower section ( 1.1), followed by a second straight section (1.2.2), whose diameter is equal to the largest diameter of the second inverted cone (1.2.1).

The geometry and volume of the upper section (1.2) of the home (1), guarantees the complete mixing of the gases generated in the lower section (1.1) with the secondary air flow (7), achieving total combustion of the generated gases in said lower section (1.1), before leaving the heat exchanger system (6).

Preferably, the lower section (1.1), the upper section (1.2) and the third straight section (1.3) of the home (1) are coated with a refractory material (19).
 Four. Five
The refractory material (19) used, especially in the upper section (1.2) of the home (1), must allow to maintain an elevated temperature inside the home (1) to achieve the complete elimination of the entrained particles during the combustion carried out in the lower section (1.1) of the home (1).
 fifty
Similarly, it is preferred that the lower section (1.1), the upper section (1.2) and the third straight section (1.3) of the home (1) be wrapped in a water jacket (14) that minimizes the thermal losses of the combustion gases.

For its part, preferably, the heat exchanger system (6) comprises, arranged in series, a cascade heat exchanger (6.1) followed by a tubular heat exchanger (6.2).
 5
The cascade heat exchanger (6.1) collects a high percentage of the power and limits the entrainment of particles, contained in the combustion gases, towards the tubular exchanger (6.2). The geometry of the cascade heat exchanger (6.1) helps these particles collide against the walls of the exchanger and decant into an ashtray (6.1.1), arranged in its lower part. 10

Preferably, the ashtray (6.1.1) of the cascade heat exchanger (6.1) is covered by a water jacket (6.1.2).

The water jackets, both around the components of the home (1) and the ashtray 15 (6.1.1) of the cascade heat exchanger (6.1), prevent radiation losses of said elements and act as inertia systems.

As for the tubular heat exchanger (6.2), it has three smoke passages to maximize its heat transfer performance, in addition to an automatic cleaning system (18). twenty

Preferably, at the outlet of the tubular heat exchanger (6.2), after the lambda probe (8), at least one exhaust fan (15) is provided that guarantees the circulation of combustion gases through the home (1) and the heat exchanger system (6).
