Abstract
Abstract The heating power of the fire box of a boiler burning powdered fuel maintained in suspension by fluidizing air is regulated in dependence on the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer by means of a heat transmitting system filled with a liquid medium, a first part of the heat transmitting system being embedded in the burning fluidized fuel layer, a second part of such system being disposed in the boiler drum, and a third part of the system being disposed within the fluidizing air supply. The heat transmitting liquid which is heated by its flow through the first part of the heat transmitting system selectively transmits heat to either the second or the third part of the system whereby to regulate the heat output of the boiler.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
A method of regulating the heating power of a stream or hot water boiler burning powdered fuel maintained in suspension by fluidizing air introduced into the combustion chamber of the boiler in dependence on the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer and on the heat output of the boiler, the boilers being provided with heat-transmitting means adapted for the passage of a heat-transmitting medium, the heat-transmitting medium having a part disposed in the burning fluidized fuel layer, the method comprising: upon a reduction in the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer increasing the rate of transmission of heat by the heat-transmitting medium to the fluidizing air, and upon a rise in the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer decreasing the rate of transmission of heat by the heat-transmitting medium to the fluidizing air.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
136 words
A method of regulating the heating power of a stream or hot water boiler burning powdered fuel maintained in suspension by fluidizing air introduced into the combustion chamber of the boiler in dependence on the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer and on the heat output of the boiler, the boilers being provided with heat-transmitting means adapted for the passage of a heat-transmitting medium, the heat-transmitting medium having a part disposed in the burning fluidized fuel layer, the method comprising: upon a reduction in the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer increasing the rate of transmission of heat by the heat-transmitting medium to the fluidizing air, and upon a rise in the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer decreasing the rate of transmission of heat by the heat-transmitting medium to the fluidizing air.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the heat-transmitting medium is a liquid with a higher boiling point than that of water.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
93 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein he heat-transmitting liquid is forcibly circulated, and the forced circulation of the heat-transmitting medium is simultaneously controlled in dependence of the burning fluidized fuel layer, so that in the case of a reduction of the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer in the boiler, the rate of flow of the heat-transmitting medium is reduced, and that in the case of an increase of the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer in the boiler the rate of flow of the heat-transmitting medium is increased.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
251 words
Apparatus for regulating the heating power of a steam or hot water boiler having a boiler drum and burning powdered fuel maintained in suspension by fluidizing air introduced into the combustion chamber of the boiler in dependence on the temperature of the burning fluidized fuel layer and on the heat output of the boiler, comprising a boiler drum, a combustion chamber for a fluidized particulate fuel, an air chamber for fluidizing air below the combustion chamber, means for supplying combustion air from said air chamber to the combustion chamber, means for supplying powdered fuel to be maintained in suspension by the combustion air within the combustion chamber, heat-transmitting means for the passage of a heat-transmitting medium for the regulation of the output of heat by the boiler, a heat-transmitting system containing said heat-transmitting medium, the system having a first part disposed within the burning fluidized fuel layer in the combustion layer, a second part disposed in the boiler drum of the boiler, and a third part disposed in the air chamber of the boiler, valve means adapted to control the flow of the heat-transmitting medium between said parts of the heat-transmitting system, a temperature feeler in the burning fluidized fuel layer in the combustion chamber of the boiler, a device for measuring the heat output of the boiler drum, means for evaluating values measured by said temperature feeler and said device for measuring the heat output of the boiler drum, and means controlled by said evaluation means for controlling the valve.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
251 words
