Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2599423A] A method for operating a combustion device 100 to provide a combustible mixture composed of an air stream ‘A’ and a hydrogen combustion gas stream ‘G’, and to burn the mixture ‘M’ so that heat is generated. The combustible air/fuel mixture is regulated as a function of the heat required, and when low heat power is required the combustible mixture is controlled such that it is a lean mixture, and/or when a high heat power is required the combustible mixture is controlled such that it is a rich mixture. In particular, the air quantity, represented by an air number λ of the air/combustion gas mixture stream is regulated within defined limits in dependence of the range of heating power, and as such λ = λ(Q) and is regulated within the boundaries of: 0.15 / Q + 1 ≤ λ ≤ 0.175 / Q + 1.25, when the relative heating power ‘Q’ is in the range between 0 and 1. The regulating arrangement may include a fan 102, a fuel gas metering unit 104, a mixing unit 106 and regulating apparatus 110.
