Patent ID: 8678814

Claim:
A control and regulation system of a combustion unit including a combustion chamber and a catalyst, said control and regulation system comprising: an acquisition device configured to acquire signals proportional to functioning parameters characteristic of the functioning state of the combustion unit; an electronic data processing unit connected to the signal acquisition device and configured to receive the signals; a control and regulation program associated with said electronic data processing unit; a first fuel distribution valve configured to fluidly connect to the combustion chamber; a second air distribution valve configured to fluidly connect a first area of the combustion chamber to a third area of the combustion chamber, and to regulate an amount of air flowing to the third area from the first area outside the combustion chamber; and a data base associated with said electronic data processing unit, wherein said electronic data processing unit receives the signals from the signal acquisition device, processes the signals and, based on the processed signals and the data base, regulates an opening of the first valve and second valve to minimize polluting emissions of CO and NOx of the combustion unit; wherein said combustion chamber comprises the first area, a second area in which the catalyst is housed, the third area that sandwiches with the first area the second area, a first fuel inlet duct connecting said first fuel distribution valve to said first area of the combustion chamber, a second inlet duct configured to transport the air coming from a compressor and an outlet duct of the exhaust gases that is connected to the third area of the combustion chamber; and wherein said combustion chamber further comprises a third fuel inlet duct configured to connect said first fuel distribution valve to an interface between the second area and the third area of the combustion chamber, an air distribution duct configured to connect the first area of the combustion chamber to the third area of the combustion chamber and to be controlled by the second air distribution valve and a main fuel duct connected to the first fuel distribution valve.
