Igniter for Downhole Use Having Flame Control |
摘要 |
An igniter initiates combustion in an amount of explosive that is downhole and adjacent the igniter. The igniter includes an amount of combustible material and a resistive igniter element disposed on a side of the combustible material that faces the amount of explosive. Applying a designated amount of electricity to the resistive igniter element generates sufficient heat to ignite the combustible material. Strategically initiating ignition adjacent the amount of explosive generates a flame front that travels away from the explosive, which in turn directs a flame against the explosive substantially the entire time the combustible material burns. |

1. An igniter for igniting an explosive downhole comprising:
a housing having an opening proximate the explosive; a pyrotechnic material in the housing; an igniter assembly in the opening and that is in thermal contact with the pyrotechnic material, so that when the igniter element is heated to a temperature that initiates combustion of the combustible material, a flame is generated in the housing which is directed to the explosive and that ignites the explosive. |
