COMBUSTION SYSTEM INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE FUEL FLOW EQUALIZER

摘要

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a combustion system including at least one fuel flow equalizer for reducing fuel flow velocity distribution and improving flame stabilization within a combustion space. Additionally, a charged flame anchoring apparatus may be positioned above the at least one fuel flow equalizer for attaching the flame thereto and improving flame stability.

主权项

1. A combustion system, comprising:
at least one burner nozzle configured to discharge fuel into a combustion space sized and configured to at least partially contain a flame produced during combustion of the fuel and an oxidizer; at least one fuel flow equalizer positioned downstream from the at least one burner nozzle, the fuel flow equalizer including a plurality of openings sized and configured to allow the fuel to pass therethrough; a flame anchoring apparatus positioned downstream from the at least one fuel flow equalizer; and a voltage power supply electrically coupled to the flame anchoring apparatus, the voltage power supply being configured to bias the flame anchoring apparatus so that the flame is attracted to the flame anchoring apparatus.
