FLUIDIZED BED COMBUSTOR, EQUIPPED WITH MEANS FOR IMPROVING THE DISTRIBUTION OF FUEL AND GASES

Abstract: Distributor equipment comprising at least one lower and/or one upper stationary distributor device (15, 16) for distribution of fuel in the form of gas and particles in a fluidized bed (5), which distributor device is arranged above fuel feed nozzles (13) in the bed, or at or above the upper limit of the bed. The task of the distributor device is to spread fuel, rising upwards in the bed, over a large area in the bed and more evenly distribute the fuel in the bed as well as to create turbulence above the bed. This is achieved by designing the distributor device with a mid-portion (19) or a mid-section (23) and, directed out from this mid-portion/mid-section, a distributor part in the form of obliquely upwardly-inclined wing-like members (17, 18, 21, 22) or an obliquely upwardly-directed funnel-shaped cone (30) or some other body where the wing-like members or the cone and the body bring about the mentioned distribution of fuel by forcing the fuel to follow an outwardly-directed horizontal or obliquely upwardly-rising flow of fuel, seen from the mid-portion/the mid-section.

Description: Fluidized bed combustor, equipped with means for improving the distribution of fuel and gases. TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to distributor equipment for improved distribution of fuel and hence a more uniform distribution of combustion in a fluidized bed in a power plant . The intention is to achieve a higher efficiency and reduced emissions by a more efficient combustion. The invention is primarily intended to be applied to a PFBC power plant in which combustion is performed at a pressure exceeding the atmospheric pressure . BACKGROUND ART, THE PROBLEMS Firing with a particulate fuel in a fluidized bed requires a good distribution of a fuel fed into the bed for a complete combustion of the particles to take place. Tr.e fuel in the bed comprises one gaseous part and one part of particles which are both capable of being blown off and not capable of being blown off. If the number of feed points for fuel is too small, an accu¬ mulation of fuel takes place in a plume-shaped region above each individual fuel feed nozzle. In this region, all avai¬ lable oxygen in the fluidization air is rapidly consumed, r which case particles which have not been burnt out comple¬ tely of their fuel content reach the bed surface and are blown off to a freeboard above the bed. From the freeboard the flue gases are passed on from the combustion to ash cleaners, so-called cyclones. A problem which may arise when particles containing unburnt residues of fuel occur is that fires may arise at other locations in the plant. For example, it is known that insufficiently burnt-out particles may burn at undeεired points, such as in the freeboard or in the cyclones. Solid particles and gas with still combustible constituents at these points may encounter fluidization air which still contains oxygen residues since air may have passed regions with a lower concentration of fuel, that is, between the above-mentioned plume-shaped combustion regions, during the flow upwards through the bed, this air net being depleted cf oxygen by combustion. Fires at the above-mentioned points are unacceptable and entail harmful thermal stresses on the construction material used, since an after-combustion after the bed increases the temperature of the flue gases. In addition, the composition of emissions in the flue gases may be changed in an undesi- red and uncontrolled manner. Emission of nitrogen oxides may increase since the use cf ammonia for reducing these oxides is rendered difficult when ammonia is burning in zones with coal combustion. Also the emission of sulphur may increase since the use of a sorbent, fed into the bed, for reducing sulphur is rendered difficult if the above-mentioned plume-shaped regions occur in the bed. This is due partly to the compound formed during the sulphur reduction not being stable at low oxygen content:s, and partly to combustion taking place in zones where the sorbent content is lower than in the bed. Further, of course, the effective burn out of the fuel content in the particles is reduced, which reduces the efficiency of the plan . The bed normally accomodates a tube bundle for steam generation above the fuel feed nozzles. Another problem which may arise is that fluidization air which is completely depleted of oxygen gives an increased corrosion on the tube material, which in turn leads to a rapid material wear in the tube bundle. A better distribution of the fuel leads to a reduced risk of corrosion in the plume-shaped regions mentioned since regions with a permanently low oxygen content in the fluidization air are eliminated. A good distribution of the fuel in the bed can be achieved by the particulate fuel being supplied to the bed at a large number of feed points in the form of well distributed fuel feed nozzles, as disclosed, for example, in Swedish patent application 9000354-2. In case of a large number of fuel feed points, an even dis¬ tribution is obtained in the fluidized bed between the fuel and the fluidization air. This makes it possible for the gaseous part of the fuel and that part of the fuel which constitutes particles capable of being blown off to burn out completely before this part in the form of burnt out particles reaches the surface of the bed and is blown off. A design with a large number of fuel feed points is costly and difficult to realize because of a complicated network of distribution conduits to the fuel feed nozzles, as well as problems if the different conduits are clogged. Another possible solution to the mentioned problems is to arrange some form of distributor of the fuel in the bed after feeding of the fuel. The patent GB 1 326 651, for example, shows a distributor in the form of a rotating wheel provided with blades and located above a fuel feed opening. Upon rotation of the wheel, the fuel is distributed in the bed. Using some type of movable parts to achieve a good fuel distribution in the bed is, however, not suitable. The movable parts are influenced by greatly destructive forces, as, for example, the high temperature. In addition, the availability for service of any devices is greatly limited or disturbing for the operation of the plant. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION, ADVANTAGES The present invention relates to distributor equipment comprising a lower and/or an upper distributer device. The distributor device is fixedly mounted in a fluidized bed and/or at or above the upper limit of the bed in a power plant. Its task is to spread upwardly-rising fuel, in the form of gas and particles, and to distribute the fuel over a larger area and more evenly in the bed as well as to create, partly above and partly below the upper limit of the bed, turbulence of the gas and movement of the particles out towards the periphery of the bed. The distributor device can be formed in many different ways . The design differs somewhat between the lower one, which is intended to be arranged in the bed above a fuel feed nozzle, and the upper one, which is intended to be arranged at or above the surface of the bed. The lower distributor device, which is intended to be arranged in the bed, will herein¬ after be referred to as a "bed distributor", whereas the upper distributor device, which is intended to be arranged at or above the bed surface, will be referred to as a "freeboard distributor" . The distributor equipment may either comprise only the bed distributor or only the freeboard distributor, or both the bed distributor and the freeboard distributor. Thus, the task of the bed distributor is to spread the fuel rising upwardly in the bed and to distribute it over a larger area in the bed, and at the same time to distribute the fuel more evenly in the bed. This is achieved by designing the bed distributor with a receiving mid-portion and, directed outwards from this mid-portion, with a distributor part with obliquely upwardly-inclining wing-like members, hereinafter called wings, or an obliquely upwardly- directed funnel-shaped frustum of a cone, where the wing¬ like members or the cone or the body bring about the mentioned distribution of the fuel by forcing the fuel to follow an outwardly-directed obliquely upwardly-rising flow of the fuel, seen from the mid-portion. By means of holes in the wings or in the cone, the fuel is released evenly distributed over the surface in the bed which is covered by the bed distributor. In the simplest case the bed distributor is formed with two wings which at their respective lowest part, the base, are connected to the mid-portion. The wings are horizontal or incline upwards, and outwards, towards their free ends, they are tapering. In addition, holes are made in each wing and distributed over the wing surface. The mid-portion is not provided with holes. The mid-portion receives bubbles, rising upwards in the bed, with contents of fluidization air, fuel gases and fuel particles. The bubbles are slowed down and distributed along the wings which together with the mid-portion prevent the bubbles from rising too rapidly and hence leave the bed with contents of partially unburnt fuel. The bubbles are guided outwards, upwards by the oblique wings and are forced to follow these until they either encounter a hole in a wing or until the bubbles in their sliding movement obliquely upwards along a wing are forced over the edge of the wing since this has a tapering shape. Because of the wing shape, its inclination and with the aid of the holes, the mentioned bubbles are distributed evenly over a larger area, thus achieving a more complete combustion of the fuel. At their free ends, the wing tips of the bed distributor may terminate in an almost horizontal portion. The horizontal portions slow down bubbles and particles and gradually release these into the bed. The holes in the device contribute to gas being released through the respective wings over the entire surface there¬ of. The absence of holes in the mid-portion at the bases of the wings facilitates the start of the direction of the bubbles and reduces the risk of agglomerates of fuel par¬ ticles possibly adhering to holes directly above the fuel feed nozzles at the very point where the fuel concentratior. is largest and the velocity of the fuel particles is lowest, which could be the case if also the mid-portion were provi¬ ded with holes. The upward inclination of the wings of the bed distributer is determined by the extent to which bubble direction is desired. Since the space between the fuel nozzles and the tube bundle, located in the bed, for steam generation is limited, the length of the wings of the bed distributor is determined by this available space and the upward inclina- tion of the wings from the horizontal line. The width of the mid-portion and hence the bases of the wings are selec¬ ted in dependence on the desired distribution for the fuel in the bed. However, a bed distributor according to the invention must not take up too large a part of the bed area. The exact location of the bed distributor formed with two wings should be adjustable in the horizontal direction to enable it to be placed strategically in the plume cf upward¬ ly-rising bubbles which is formed close to the fuel feed nozzles. In alternative embodiments of the bed distributor this may be provided with downward bends or folds along the long sides of the wings. This increases the bubble-directing ability of the bed distributor and creates a space which, at times, is particle-free below the bed distributor and hence facilitates the combustion of combustible gases in the flui¬ dized bed. The fact that the space below the bed distribu¬ tor is occasionally particle free also contributes to an increased fuel distribution since the fuel can penetrate more easily further into the bed . The design of the bed distributor is such that it captures as much fuel as possible below the widest part and then the fuel is distributed in the direction of the wings. Combus¬ tible gas and/or combustible particle are released through the holes and along the tapering edge. The task of the freeboard distributor is, at or above the upper limit of the bed, partly to spread fuel in a hori¬ zontal direction, partly to create turbulence. The tur¬ bulence and the horizontal movement of the particles are brought about by designing the freeboard distributor as well as the bed distributor with a distributor part with oliquely upwardly-inclined wings or an obliquely upwardly-directed cone. However, the mid-portion is replaced by a mid-section in which the bases of the wings are joined in the lowest part of the freeboard distributor. The wings of the free¬ board distributor are whole and straight, that is, they have no holes and no tapering shape. The freeboard distributor is formed such that bed material and gases are transported out from the central parts of the bed towards the bed peri¬ phery while at the same time turbulence is created in the freeboard above the wings. The turbulence permits gases to be mixed such that any unburnt coal particles and gases are burnt in or as close to the bed as possible. The turbulent mixing also renders the use of ammonia more efficient for reduction of nitrogen oxides since burning zones in the freeboard are reduced and the ammonia is not burnt . This also applies to sorbent for reducing sulphur since the combustion is reduced in zones where the content: of sorbent is lower than in the bed. In the simplest case, the freeboard distributor as well as the bed distributor are formed from two wings, inter¬ connected at the mid-section, which are diametrically opposite. The respective wings in the freeboard distributor incline upwards and are shaped as a roof ridge, that is, as a V turned upside-down. The roof ridge shape renders difficult the build-up of dust on the wings. The width of the wings is chosen in dependence cf the desired distribution for the fuel in the upper part of the bed and in the freeboard. What size to choose for the wings of the freeboard distributor depends on how great the plume problem is. In alternative embodiments, the wings of the freeboard distributor may be bent in a transverse section. Alter¬ natively, the wing surface is plane and provided with downward folds along the long sides of the wings with the openings of the wings facing downwards. A suitable number of distributor devices is chosen; however, at least one distributor device is arranged above each fuel feed nozzle. Additional distributor devices are possibly arranged between those arranged above the fuel feed nozzles . The elongated shape of the distributor device, that is, the bed distributor and the freeboard distributor, respectively, is dependent on the location of the fuel nozzles in the bed. In a conceived case with several nozzles placed in parallel with each other, good coverage is obtained of regions with a need of improved fuel distribution in the bed with distri¬ butor devices of elongated shape. In case of other configu¬ rations of fuel feed, it may be necessary to design the distributor device according to other patterns. It is possible, for example, to design a distributor device provi- ded with only one wing. Further, the mid-portion of the distributor device may be given a conical shape with a down¬ wardly-turned tip, where more than two wings of the designs mentioned above or below are distributed along the periphery of the cone. As mentioned, the distributor part in the device in the form of the different variants of wings may be formed with a funnel-shaped conical part, the envelope surface of the conical part having the shape of the envelope surface of the frustum of a cone. The envelope surface of this frustum of a cone has its smallest cross section area connected to the mid-portion of the device whereas the largest cross section area is placed at a higher level. In the following, such a described frustum of a cone, utilized in the device, is referred to as a "bed cone" and a "freeboard cone", respectively. The bed cone and the freeboard cone, respectively, exhibit a closed curve shape in a horizontal cross section, the closed curve being arbitrary but preferably circular or elliptical. To achieve the intended distribution of fuel, the bed cone is provided with holes, whereby the fuel is directed to the desired extent to the space in the bed above the distributor device. The material in the distributor device may in its simplest form consist of steel or some steel alloy or some other metal alloy which withstands the high temperatures occurring, the greatly corrosive environment and the particle-laden surrounding. The distributor device may also be made of ceramics . The distributor device may be cooled. The cooling is suitably performed with the aid of tubes in which cooling water is transported and which are arranged in the dis¬ tributor device or on ins upper or lower surface . To further improve the effect of the invention, extra flui¬ dization air may be supplied below the bed distributor, for example by means of extra nozzles for fluidization air below the bed distributor or by arranging nozzles for fluidization air more closely together. The extra air had two effects. On the one hand, it spreads the fuel better by the increased bubble flow along the respective directions of the wings, and on the other hand, the extra supplied fluidization air makes possible an additional combustion of combustible gas. The increased flow of fluidization air locally at one fuel feed nozzle near the bed wing may provide increased erosion in the tube bundle. This risk is reduced through the impro¬ ved distribution of the bubbles by the distributor device. The advantage of distributor equipment according to the invention is that a good fuel distribution, primarily with the aid of the bed distributor, can be achieved without an increase of the number of fuel feed points having to be made. Primarily with the aid of the freeboard distributer, the combustion upstream of the freeboard will become more efficient by the creation of turbulence and a horizontal movement of material around or below the upper limit of the bed. The freeboard distributor conducts the gases out from the centre of the bed to the more oxygen-rich parts in the periphery. The advantage of controlling the combustion to take place substantially in a more oxygen-rich space is that the temperature in the freeboard and the gas turbine is kept low and that heat released in the bed is utilized in a stear cycle. The gas which passes up through the freeboard will thus have a more uniform temperature distribution. Since the gas is given a heavy turbulence, better conditions are created for the reduction of nitrogen oxide by mixing ammonia into the freeboard.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS With reference to the accompanying figures, a number cf embodiments of distributor equipment according to the invention will be described. Figure 1 schematically shows a combustcr 1 in a PFEC power plant, in which combustion is performed at a pressure con¬ siderably exceeding the atmospheric pressure. In the figure the combustor 1 is located inside a pressure vessel 2. The space 3 in the pressure vessel 2 outside the combustor 1 is supplied with compressed fluidization air from a compressor (not shown) via a conduit . The combustor 1 contains a fluidizable bed 5 of particulate material in which a fuel is burnt. In addition, the combustor 1 includes tubes 6 for generating steam for a steam turbine (not shown) and for cooling the bed 5. Flue gases leaving the bed 5 are collec- ted in a freeboard 7 and are passed in a conduit 8 to a cleaning plant symbolized by a cyclone 9 where dust is sepa¬ rated, and from the cyclone 9 in a conduit 10 to a gas tur¬ bine (not shown) . Separated dust is discharged from the cyclone 9 through a conduit 11. Fuel is fed into the combustor 1 via a conduit 12 and via nozzles 13. The combustor 1 is supplied with fluidization air from the space 3 via nozzles 14 for fluidization of the material in the bed 5 and for combustion of the supplied fuel. The three main embodiments comprise arranging in the bed 5 distributor equipment comprising bed distributors 15 only or freeboard distributors 16 only, or both bed distributors 15 and freeboard distributors 16. The choice of embodiment depends on the geometry of the bed 5 and on the current plume problem. Figures 2a and 3a show the bed distributor 15 and the freeboard distributor 16, respectively, in a view from above. The bed distributor 15 is formed with a distributor part in the form of two wings 17, 18 tapering outwardly towards their free ends, diametrically opposite to each other and with their widest and lowest parts, bases, changing into a mid-portion 19 common to both wings 17, 18. Along the wings 17, 18 of the bed distributor 15, through- holes 20 are provided. The mid-portion 19 has no holes 20. The freeboard distributor 16 on the other hand has a distributor part in the form of two whole and straight wings 21, 22, placed diametrically opposite to each other and joined in a mid-section 23. The respective wings 21, 22 of the freeboard distributor 16 are formed as the ridge of a roof, that is, as an inverted V, which efficiently renders difficult the build up of dust in the wings 21, 22 of the freeboard distributor 16. The wings 17, 18 of the bed distributor are horizontal cr incline upwards from the horizontal plane with an angle cf inclination of 20° in the embodiment. A greater angle of inclination may be preferred but this creates problems with space requirement in the available space in the vertical direction within the bed 5. The wings 21, 22 of the freeboard distributor 16 are horizontal or incline upwards from the horizontal plane with an angle of inclination of between 20° and 45°, suitably 30°. In the embodiment. Figures 2b and 3b show the bed distribu¬ tor 15 and the freeboard distributor 16, respectively, in a view from the side. As will be clear from Figure 2r, the respective free ends, tips 24, 25, of the wings 17, 18 of the bed distributor 15 exhibit a flattened out shape, which may have a horizontal extension. The tips 24, 25 may be made tapering or with a rounded or straight termination, whereas the wings 21, 22 of the freeboard distributor 16 are straight . Further, Figures 4a-4c and 5a-5c show that the wings of the bed distributor and the freeboard distributor, 15 and 16, respectively, may be plane as in Figure 4a, have a roof ridge shape as in Figure 5a, or be curved in a transverse section as in Figures 4b, 5b. Alternatively, the wing surface may be plane but provided with downward folds 26 along the long sides of the wing according to Figures 4c, 5c. The task of the downward folds 26 or the curved surface of the wings with the opening downwards is to spread, in a more efficient manner, the upwardly flowing fuel particles and to make difficult the build up cf dust in the wings. Figure 2b shows the location of the bed distributor 15 in relation to a fuel feed nozzle 13 with horizontal fuel supply. At a variable distance in front of the feed opening 13, the bed distributor 15 with its lowest part, the mid- portion 19, is located at a somewhat higher level than the fuel feed opening 13. The displacement in height for the bed distributor 15 is 16 cm m the example. Figures 2a-2c illustrate the attachment of the bed wing 15 by means of holders 27 in the form of clamps, loops or the like, which surround the tubes 6. The bed distributor 15 should be displaceable in the longitudinal direction of the tubes 6 before the device is locked at the location tested. In the example, the bed distributor 15 is mounted with its lowest part 30 cm in front of the opening of a fuel feed nozzle 13, but this distance can be varied in dependence on the physical factors prevailing during the combustion. The holders 27 are applied at bars 28, mounted across the longitudinal direction of the distributor device and with such a length that the ends of the bars 28 may bridge two parallel tube sections 6a-f, in which the bed distributor 15 may be attached in a suspended manner. The bars 28 are attached by means of supports 29a, 29b to the bed distri¬ butor 15. In Figures 3a-3c it is seen how the freeboard distributor 16 is attached in a corresponding way by means of corresponding holders 27 surrounding the tubes 6. In the example, the freeboard distributor 16 is arranged with its lowest part, that is, the mid-section 23, centrally in the bed 5. Figure 6 shows the combustor 1 from above, and it is clear how the bed distributors 15 and the freeboard distributors 16, respectively, according to the invention are arranged in relation to each other. Figure 7 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the distributor device is made as a cone 30, a bed cone and a freeboard cone, respectively, which is attached to a mid-portion 19 which may have an arbitrary shape but is made with a conical shape in the example . Holes 20 are made in the bed cone to achieve the distri¬ bution of the fuel described above. The upward terminating edge of the bed cone and the freeboard cone, respectively, may be made with an annular flange or collar to slow down fuel rising upwards along the outer side of the cone 30. The bed cone and the freeboard cone, respectively, are made with circular or oval cross section. The generatrices in the cone 30 bend outwards in their upper part, thus obtaining a flange- or collar-like termination on the upper part of the cone 30. The distributor device may, of course, be formed as an arbi¬ trary body or with a plurality of wings which may be distri- buted at arbitrary angles around the mid-portion 19 depen¬ ding on the geometry of the bed 5 and the desired distribu¬ tion of the fuel in the bed 5. The nozzles for fluidization air 14 are arranged near the distributor device for the supply of extra fluidization air. This extra fluidization air is advantageously added below the distributor device arranged in the bed, that is, below the bed distributor 15 or the bed cone.
