GAS WATER HEATER AND BURNER THEREOF

Description

FIELD OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water heaters, and discloses a gas water heater and a burner thereof.

BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0002] In the prior art, most water heater manufacturers adopt common atmospheric burners, in which the burner has only a single fuel gas-air mixing channel, while the NO_X emissions in the combustion products remain constantly high. A known water heater is disclosed in the European patent application EP 3584499A1, which represents prior art in the sense of Article 54(3) EPC. It is known that NO_X is a toxic gas not only harmful to human body but also polluting the atmosphere. Facing the imminent enforcement of European EN26 standard, gas water heaters must meet the low NO_X emission requirements. However, it is difficult for common burners to meet the low NO_X demand, thus restricting the company's development in a certain degree. At the same time, the CO emission value of common burners remains relatively high, leaving zero CO emission or low CO emission requirements currently unachievable. In response to national energy conservation and emission reduction policies, it is a tendency that water heaters should achieve low pollution emissions. In addition, as the minimum input power of existing water heater has been too high, the minimum temperature rise of heated water is too high, which hardly achieves a desired bath temperature in summer, thereby significantly affecting user experience.

SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0003] The objective of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a gas water heater and a burner thereof, which achieves low pollution emissions by reducing NO_X and CO emissions, and also achieves "low heat combustion" by controlling the number of combustive fuel gas-air mixing channels 11 in the burner, thus effectively increasing a turndown ratio.

[0005] The injector is provided with a water flow channel that is disposed adjacent to the jet hole for a flow of cooling water.

[0007] Preferably, the cross-sectional area of the inlet of the converging section is four times the cross-sectional area of the outlet of the converging section, and the cross-sectional area of the outlet of the mixing section is three times the cross-sectional area of the inlet of the mixing section.

[0008] The lengths of the converging section, the mixing section, and the diverging section along the fuel gas-air flow direction are respectively set to A, B and C, wherein B>C>A, B is 3-6 times of A, and B is 1.5-3.5 times of C.

[0017] Implementations of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following examples are intended to illustrate the present invention, but not to limit the scope of the present invention.

It should be understood that the terms "first", "second", and the like are used in the present invention to describe various information that should not be limited thereto, and these terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, "first" information may also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information may also be referred to as "first" information, without departing from the scope of the present invention.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a burner including an injector 10 and a fire hole plate 20, where the injector 10 is internally provided with at least two non-communicating parallel fuel gas-air mixing channels 11. One end of the injector 10 is provided with at least two injection holes 111 that are respectively in communication with the fuel gas-air mixing channels 11 in one-to-one correspondence, the other end of the injector 10 is provided with at least two jet holes 112 that are respectively in communication with the fuel gas-air mixing channels 11 in one-to-one correspondence. The fire hole plate 20 is arranged covering the end of the injector 10 that provides the jet holes 112. Above each jet hole 112, there is provided a plurality of fire holes 21 opened on the fire hole plate 20. Illustratively, referring to FIG. 1, the injector 10 of the present embodiment is internally provided with two non-communicating fuel gas-air mixing channels 11, each of which is provided with the injection hole 111 and the jet hole 112. In operation, fuel gas enters the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11 from the injection hole 111; based on a Venturi principle, the fuel gas introduces air from the injection hole 111 into the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11. The fuel gas and air are uniformly mixed in the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11 and then jet out from the jet hole 112 to be stably and uniformly burned above the fire holes 21.

[0020] The injector 10 of the present invention is provided with at least two non-communicating and independent fuel gas-air mixing channels 11, and each fuel gas-air mixing channel 11 is provided with the injection hole 111 and the jet hole 112. On the one hand, due to that the injector 10 is provided with an increased number of the injection holes 111 as compared with existing injectors, more air can be introduced so that the fuel gas is able to be fully burned, in this way, the fuel gas utilization rate is improved, thereby reducing NO_X and CO emissions. On the other hand, by controlling the number of combustive fuel gas-air mixing channels 11 in the burner of a burner assembly of a water heater, it is possible to realize "low heat combustion" and increase a turndown ratio of the burner assembly, thereby meeting the user's requirements for lower bath water temperatures in summer. Provided that each burner has a rated input power of 2 KW and municipal natural gas is used as the fuel gas source, a common burner having a single fuel gas-air mixing channel has a turndown ratio of 2:1, while the burner of an embodiment of the present invention having two fuel gas-air mixing channels has a turndown ratio of 4:1 due to a selectable number of combustive fuel gas-air mixing channels. Therefore, under the same input power conditions, the burner of the present invention having two fuel gas-air mixing channels can halve the minimum temperature rise of the water heated by the water heater, thereby effectively improving the user's bath comfort.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution, a burner is provided in the present embodiment. Referring to FIG. 1, the injector 10 is provided with a water flow channel 12 which is disposed adjacent to the jet hole 112 for a flow of cooling water. By providing the water flow channel 12 adjacent to the jet hole 112, a large amount of heat generated by the combustion in the injector 10 can be absorbed to effectively reduce the temperature of combustion zone of the fire holes 21, thereby further reducing the amount of generated NO_X. It should be understood that the cooling water is also referred to water to be heated by the burner, the water absorbs the heat of a surface of the injector 10 prior to passing through the water flow channel 12, thereby effectively improving the energy conversion efficiency and effectively achieving energy saving and emission reduction. Illustratively, a water pipe is inserted in the water flow channel 12 by pipe expansion techniques. The water pipe should be properly installed for the cooling water to pass through, thereby ensuring heat transfer and absorption. Illustratively, the water flow channels 12 are opened on both sides of each of the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11.

[0022] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11 is T-shaped in general, which enables a sufficient mixing of the fuel gas and air.

[0023] In this embodiment, the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11 includes a converging section 113, a mixing section 114, and a diverging section 115 which are sequentially communicated along a fuel gas-air flow direction. The converging section 113 has a tapered shape that gradually tapers along the fuel gas-air flow direction, a cross-sectional area of an inlet 1131 of the converging section 113 is 3-6 times a cross-sectional area of an outlet 1132 of the converging section 113. By adopting the design of the tapered-shaped cross section, the frictional losses of induced air are reduced. Meanwhile, under the advantageous Venturi principle, induced fuel gas creates a negative pressure at the outlet 1132 of the converging section 113, which can increase air intake from the inlet 1131 of the converging section 113. In order to evenly distribute the velocity field, the concentration field and the temperature field of the fuel gas-air mixture before it enters the diverging section 115, a cross-sectional area of the mixing section 114 along the fuel gas-air flow direction gradually increases. A cross-sectional area of an outlet 1142 of the mixing section 114 is 2-5 times a cross-sectional area of an inlet 1141 of the mixing section 114. Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the diverging section 115 is triangular-shaped in general along the fuel gas-air flow direction, a cross-sectional area of an inlet 1151 of the diverging section 115 is smaller than a cross-sectional area of an outlet 1152 of the diverging section 115. Referring to FIG. 3, an intermediate section of the diverging section 115 is provided with a constricted opening 115a. In this way, the fuel gas and air can be mix further uniformly; and at the same time, a part of dynamic pressure becomes a static pressure to increase the pressure of the fuel gas-air mixture to uniformly mix the fuel gas and air. In addition, the constricted opening 115a provides a uniform distribution of the fuel gas-air velocity in the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11.

[0024] Preferably, in the present embodiment, in order to better mix the fuel gas and air mixture uniformly, the cross-sectional area of the inlet 1131 of the converging section 113 is four times the cross-sectional area of the outlet 1132 of the converging section 113.

[0025] For the same purpose, in the present embodiment, preferably, the cross-sectional area of the outlet 1142 of the mixing section 114 is three times the cross-sectional area of the inlet 1141 of the mixing section 114.

[0026] Further, in order to uniformly mix the fuel gas and air in the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11, lengths of the converging section 113, the mixing section 114 and the diverging section 115 along the fuel gas-air flow direction are respectively set to A, B and C, wherein B>C>A, B is 3-6 times of A, and B is 1.5-3.5 times of C.

[0027] Preferably, in the burner, the length B of the mixing section 114 is four times the length A of the converging section 113, and the length B the mixing section 114 is twice the length C of the diverging section 115.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to achieve a stable combustion, the fire holes 21 are uniformly opened on the fire hole plate 20, and the fire hole 21 has a diameter ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 mm. The fuel gas-air mixture jetted from the jet hole 112 can be evenly distributed into the fire holes 21 for stable and complete combustion.

[0029] Specifically, in the present embodiment, a surface of the fire hole plate 20 is provided with a catalyst, the catalyst being a noble metal, a transition metal hydride or a transition metal oxide. The catalyst can effectively reduce the activation energy of the fuel gas-air mixture, and at the same time enrich the molecules of the mixture on the surface of the fire hole plate 20, thereby increasing the reaction speed and accelerating the burning rate. Organic exhaust gas generated from incomplete combustion can be flamelessly burned under a low ignition temperature by using the catalyst, and then can be oxidized and decomposed into CO₂ and H₂O, which achieves low CO and even zero CO emissions and releases a large amount of heat, thereby achieving the goal of energy saving and emission reduction.

[0030] FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing the structure of an injector after being disassembled and unfolded, according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, in this embodiment, referring specifically to FIG. 4, the injector 10 is formed by folding and connecting a structurally symmetrical first casing 13 towards opposite sides along a center line 18 thereof, wherein the first casing 13 is provided with at least two first pressing grooves 131 on one side besides the center line 18, and is provided with at least two second pressing grooves 132 which are in one-to-one correspondence with the first pressing grooves 131 on the other side besides the center line 18. After the first casing 13 is folded towards opposite sides, the first pressing groove 131 and the second pressing groove 132 form the fuel gas-air mixing channel 11. By integrally forming the injector 10, the manufacture of the injector 10 can be simplified. Illustratively, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 , two opposite edges of the first casing 13 that are perpendicular to the center line 18 are provided with folding rims 134 for performing a snap connection between the two structurally symmetrical parts of the first casing 13 after the first casing 13 is folded.

[0034] The fire hole plate 20 is arranged covering the end of the injector 10 that provides the jet holes 112. In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 3, in order to mount the fire hole plate 20 on the end of the injector 10 that provides the jet holes 112 in a sealed manner, the end of the injector 10 that provides the jet holes 112 is provided with an outwardly extending flange 14, an engagement groove 22 is disposed at an edge of the fire hole plate 20, and the flange 14 is inserted into the engagement groove 22 to connect the fire hole plate 20 and the injector 10.

Illustratively, an edge of the fire hole plate 20 is provided with a bent edge to form the engagement groove 22.

[0035] Illustratively, in the present embodiment, an angle between a central axis of the injection hole 111 and an end surface of the jet hole 112 is preferably 90 degrees. Meanwhile, when the burner of the present invention is applied to a type of water heater with a fan for supplying air, the angle between the central axis of the injection hole 111 and the end surface of the jet hole 112 ranges from 0 to 90 degrees.

During the assembly process, two adjacent burners are initially positioned by abutting the corresponding two positioning bosses 17, so that the distance between adjacent burners can be kept consistent. Further, in order to facilitate the assembly, the injector 10 is provided with a mounting hole 15 at the positioning boss 17. During assembling, a connecting member passes through the mounting holes 15 of adjacent two injectors 10, so as to assemble a plurality of the burners to form a burner assembly.
