Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a return flow boiler having a flue tube connected centrally to one sidewall of a return chamber and is surrounded by a number of fire tubes running backwards therefrom, parallel to the flue tube, which is designed with a specific object to aid the complete combustion of the fuel oil.
  • the invention is characterized by that the outlet of the flue tube into the return chamber is noticeably smaller than the cross section of the main part of the flue tube, in such a manner that the marginal portions of the flame within the flue tube will be forced into the core of the flame, when the latter passes out into the return chamber.
  • the boiler comprises a vertical, cylindrical shell to the upper part of which an oil burner is fitted.
  • the burner is directed into a flue tube 11, which is arranged centrally within the shell, and is connected to one sidewall ofa return chamber 12.
  • a number of fire tubes 13 extend from this chamber backwards, parallel to the flue tube and open into a collecting chamber 14, which is connected to an outlet 15 for the combustion gases.
  • the return chamber 12 has a cup-shaped lower end wall 18 designed as a water chamber, to the perimeter of which a circular row of closely arranged water tubes, preferably provided with fins is arranged the tubes, or fins respectively, being interconnected to form a gastight sidewall in the return chamber, said sidewall being subjected to radiation from a flame entering the chamber.
  • the fire tubes 13 are fitted into two end plates 20, which together with the cylindrical shell 21 enclose a convection part.
  • the water flowing within the latter is guided by baffles 22 arranged in a suitable manner.
  • the water tubes 19 are connected to the lower end plate 20 outside the fire tubes 13. The latter are mounted symmetrically around the flue tube and the temperature will be mainly uniform within this part of the boiler.
  • the flame passes from the flue tube out into the return chamber through an outlet 23, the cross section of which is noticeably smaller than the cross section of the main portion of the flue tube.
  • the marginal portions of the flame which have been in contact with the cooled wall of the flue tube and therefore have a lower temperature than the rest of the flame, are forced into the core of the flame, whereby an efficient combustion of the particles entrained in the marginal portions of the flame is efficiently obtained.
  • the resulting gases are symmetrically distributed in the return chamber and flow through the fire tubes towards the outlet 15.
  • the outlet 23 of the flue tube is cylindrical over a short distance.
  • the portion between the cylindrical main part of the flue tube and the outlet portion is basically a truncated cone having its apex 26 located just outside the outlet, the wall of the transient portion is slightly curved to ensure a smooth flow.
  • a number of guide vanes 27 may be fitted in the cylindrical portions to impart a swirling motion to the flame entering the return chamber, whereby particles of ash and other contaminations are separated by centrifugal action. Such articles are collected at the bottom of the return cham er and may be removed through a cleaning opening 24.
  • the boiler may be arranged with its longitudinal axis horizontal and by the fitting of a steam drum the boiler may be used as a common steam boiler.
  • a return flow boiler having a flue tube connected centrally to one sidewall of a return chamber and being surrounded by a number of fire tubes running backwards therefrom and parallel to the flue tube, a fuel burner being fitted at the end of the flue tube remote from the return chamber and being arranged to direct flame axially into said fire tube, in which the main part of the flue tube is cylindrical and presents a smooth, water-cooled, wall towards the flame, and the outlet of the flue tube is cylindrical over a short distance and noticeably smaller than the cross section of the main part of the flue tube, the transient part between said cylindrical portions being shaped as a truncated cone having its apex just outside the outlet from the flue tube and likewise presenting a smooth, water-cooled wall towards the flame, whereby the marginal portions of the flame within the flue tube will be forced into the core of the flame, when the latter passes out into the return chamber.
