Burner for a thermal post-combustion device

摘要

The invention describes a burner for a thermal post-combustion device, which has a burner jet arranged in a housing. Arranged on the end region of the housing is a swirl apparatus, through which the exhaust gas to be purified can be made to flow. The burner jet comprises an outer tube and an inner tube, wherein it is possible for combustion gas to be made to flow through the interspace between said two tubes as far as an annular outlet gap in the end region thereof. The flow path for the combustion gas has a bottleneck in the vicinity of the outlet gap. In this way, a compact flame can be achieved, the form of which can be designated “bell-shaped” and which, for a given volume, has a relatively small surface. Although, such a flame has poor CO2 values, the swirl apparatus ensures that the exhaust gas burns in the flame with very low NOx and CO values.

主权项

1. A burner for a thermal post-combustion device, comprising:
a housing; a combustion nozzle, which is disposed in the housing and has a tube through which combustion gas can flow and that has at least one outlet opening for the combustion gas; an eddy apparatus, which is attached to an end region of the housing and through which exhaust gas to be purified can flow; wherein, the combustion nozzle comprises an outer tube having an end region and an inner tube having an end region, with the end regions delimiting an annular outlet gap; and, wherein combustion gas can flow through an interspace between the outer tube and the inner tube, as far as the outlet gap; and, wherein a flow path for the combustion gas has a constriction in a vicinity of the outlet gap; the end region of the outer tube has a portion that tapers conically in a direction of the flow of the combustion gas; the end region of the inner tube has a groove on an outer circumferential surface of the end region of the inner tube; the outer tube and the inner tube are adjustable relative to one another in an axial direction; and, an annular interspace between the housing and the outer tube of the combustion nozzle is located in the field of view of a UV-diode to monitor the combustion process.
