Abstract

The object of the present invention is to provide a burner which is capable of decreasing the amount of NOx emission and heating the object to be heated uniformly with excellent heat transfer efficiency when heating the object to be heated while oscillating the flame by self-induced oscillation, and a method for heating using a burner, and the present invention provides a burner including a center fluid ejection outlet 2 having a sectional fan shape in which an interval between a pair of side walls 63a and 63b gradually expands toward a downstream side, a pair of openings 62a and 62b provided on side walls 61 of a fluid ejection flow path 6 on an upstream side of the central fluid ejection port 2 and communicated by a communication pipe 7, a first peripheral fluid ejection outlet arranged around the center fluid ejection outlet, a second peripheral fluid ejection outlet is arranged at a position at which a distance between a center thereof and a center of the center fluid ejection outlet is larger than a distance between a center of the first peripheral fluid ejection outlet and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet, and in a direction orthogonal to an expanding direction of the center fluid ejection outlet, and a third peripheral fluid ejection outlet is arranged at a position at which a distance between a center thereof and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet is larger than the distance between the center of the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet, and in the direction orthogonal to the expanding direction of the center fluid ejection outlet.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A burner which is configured eject a combustion-supporting gas containing oxygen or a fuel gas from each of a plurality of fluid ejection outlets provided at the tip surface thereof, and burns them,
wherein a plurality of the fluid ejection outlets comprise a center fluid ejection outlet, a first peripheral fluid ejection outlet, a second peripheral fluid ejection outlet, and a third peripheral fluid ejection outlet,
a pair of openings are provided at positions facing each other on side walls of a fluid ejection flow path on an upstream side of the center fluid ejection outlet,
a pair of the openings are communicated with each other through a communication pipe,
a downstream side of the opening in the fluid ejection flow path has a cross-sectional fan shape in which an interval between a pair of the side walls at which the openings are arranged gradually expands toward the downstream side,
the first peripheral fluid ejection outlet is arranged around the center fluid ejection outlet,
the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet is arranged at a position at which a distance between a center thereof and a center of the center fluid ejection outlet is larger than a distance between a center of the first peripheral fluid ejection outlet and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet, and in a direction orthogonal to an expanding direction of the center fluid ejection outlet,
the third peripheral fluid ejection outlet is arranged at a position at which a distance between a center thereof and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet is larger than the distance between the center of the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet and the center of the center fluid ejection outlet, and in the direction orthogonal to the expanding direction of the center fluid ejection outlet, and
when an equivalent diameter of the center fluid ejection outlet is L, a center-to-center distance from the center fluid ejection outlet to the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet is L B and a center-to-center distance from the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet to the third peripheral fluid ejection outlet is L B-C , L, L B , and L B-C satisfy the following expressions (1) and (2).
L B ≤15 L   (1)

L B-C ≤15 L   (2)

2. The burner according to claim 1 , wherein the second peripheral fluid outlet and the third peripheral fluid outlet are arranged respectively in a plurality along the expanding direction of the center fluid ejection outlet.

3. A method for heating using a burner,
wherein an object to be heated is heated using the burner according to claim 1 ,
when a fluid ejected from the first peripheral fluid ejection outlet, the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet, and the third peripheral fluid ejection outlet is a peripheral fluid A, a peripheral fluid B, and a peripheral fluid C,
when ratios of a flow rate of the peripheral fluids A, B, and C with respect to a total flow rate of the peripheral fluids A, B, and C are Q A , Q B , and Q C , and
these ratios are in ranges represented by the following formulas (3), (4) and (5), respectively.
Q A =0.05˜0.20  (3)

Q B =0.20˜0.80  (4)

Q C =0.20˜0.80  (5)

4. The method for heating using a burner according to claim 3 , wherein when a flow velocity of a center fluid D ejected from the center fluid ejection outlet is V, and flow velocities of the peripheral fluids B and C ejected from the second peripheral fluid ejection outlet and the third peripheral fluid ejection outlet are V B and V C , V, V B , and V C satisfy the following formula (6).
V≤V B ≤V C ≤8 V   (6)
