Abstract

A continuous flow steam generator includes a combustion chamber, having substantially rectangular cross-section and a lower and upper combustion chamber region, and has a horizontal gas pass connected downstream of the combustion chamber on the flue-gas side. Gas-tight and gas-permeable peripheral walls of the generator are completely or partly made of steam generator pipes welded together and through which a flow medium can flow, and collectors are arranged and connected to the steam generator pipes such that groups of steam generator pipes connected in parallel form heating surface segments of the peripheral walls. First passage collectors are arranged and connected such that the flow medium from first heating surface segments of two parallel first peripheral walls of the lower combustion chamber region are mixed with the fluid medium from second heating surface segments of second peripheral walls, standing perpendicular to the first peripheral walls, of the upper combustion chamber region.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A continuous flow steam generator having:
a combustion chamber which is of substantially rectangular cross section and which has a lower and an upper combustion chamber region, having a horizontal gas pass which is connected downstream of the combustion chamber at the flue gas side, wherein gas-tight and gas-permeable enclosure walls of the continuous flow steam generator are formed from welded-together steam generator tubes through which a flow medium can flow, and wherein collectors are arranged and connected to the steam generator tubes such that groups of steam generator tubes connected in parallel form heating surface segments of the enclosure walls,
first passage collectors arranged and connected such that the flow medium from first heating surface segments of two parallel first enclosure walls from the lower combustion chamber region can be admixed to the flow medium from second heating surface segments of second enclosure walls from the upper combustion chamber region, wherein the first passage collectors are perpendicular to the first enclosure walls, and
first corner heating surface segments composed of corner wall regions of the first enclosure walls from the lower combustion chamber region,
wherein the second heating surface segments comprise central wall regions of the second enclosure walls, and
wherein the first passage collectors are connected such that flow medium from the first corner heating surface segments can be supplied and/or admixed to the central wall regions of the second heating surface segments.

2. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the second enclosure walls are a front wall and a rear wall assembly, formed from a part of the rear wall, from a nose and from a grate, of the upper combustion chamber region, and furthermore the first enclosure walls are two side walls of the lower combustion chamber region.

3. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
second collectors and at least one downpipe arranged and connected such that the flow medium from the second heating surface segments of the second enclosure walls of the upper combustion chamber region can be supplied to third heating surface segments of the first enclosure walls of the upper combustion chamber region.

4. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 3 ,
wherein via the at least one downpipe, flow medium can be supplied to fourth heating surface segments of lateral enclosure walls of the horizontal gas pass and/or to a combustion chamber outlet grate arranged at the transition between upper combustion chamber region and horizontal gas pass.

5. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
second corner heating surface segments composed of corner wall regions of the second enclosure walls from the upper combustion chamber region;
wherein the first heating surface segments comprise central wall regions of the first enclosure walls;
wherein the first passage collectors are connected such that flow medium from the central wall regions of the first heating surface segments can be supplied and/or admixed to the second corner heating surface segments.

6. A continuous flow steam generator comprising:
a combustion chamber comprising: a substantially rectangular cross section; a lower and an upper combustion chamber region; and a horizontal gas pass which is connected downstream of the combustion chamber at the flue gas side, wherein gas-tight and gas-permeable enclosure walls of the continuous flow steam generator are formed from welded-together steam generator tubes through which a flow medium can flow, and wherein collectors are arranged and connected to the steam generator tubes such that groups of steam generator tubes connected in parallel form heating surface segments of the enclosure walls,
first passage collectors arranged and connected such that the flow medium from first heating surface segments of two parallel first enclosure walls from the lower combustion chamber region can be admixed to the flow medium from second heating surface segments of second enclosure walls from the upper combustion chamber region, wherein the first passage collectors are perpendicular to the first enclosure walls, and
second corner heating surface segments composed of corner wall regions of the second enclosure walls from the upper combustion chamber region,
wherein the first heating surface segments comprise central wall regions of the first enclosure walls, and
wherein the first passage collectors are connected such that flow medium from the central wall regions of the first heating surface segments can be supplied and/or admixed to the second corner heating surface segments.

7. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 6 ,
wherein the second enclosure walls are a front wall and a rear wall assembly, formed from a part of the rear wall, from a nose and from a grate, of the upper combustion chamber region, and furthermore the first enclosure walls are two side walls of the lower combustion chamber region.

8. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 6 , further comprising:
second collectors and at least one downpipe arranged and connected such that the flow medium from the second heating surface segments of the second enclosure walls of the upper combustion chamber region can be supplied to third heating surface segments of the first enclosure walls of the upper combustion chamber region.

9. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 8 ,
wherein via the at least one downpipe, flow medium can be supplied to fourth heating surface segments of lateral enclosure walls of the horizontal gas pass and/or to a combustion chamber outlet grate arranged at the transition between upper combustion chamber region and horizontal gas pass.

10. The continuous flow steam generator as claimed in claim 6 , further comprising:
first corner heating surface segments composed of corner wall regions of the first enclosure walls from the lower combustion chamber region;
wherein the second heating surface segments comprise central wall regions of the second enclosure walls;
wherein the first passage collectors are connected such that flow medium from the first corner heating surface segments can be supplied and/or admixed to the central wall regions of the second heating surface segments.

11. A continuous flow steam generator comprising:
a combustion chamber comprising: a substantially rectangular cross section; a lower combustion chamber region; an upper combustion chamber region; and a horizontal gas pass which is connected downstream of the combustion chamber at the flue gas side,
a first, a second, a third, and a fourth enclosure wall, each enclosure wall formed from welded-together steam generator tubes through which a flow medium can flow, wherein the first and third enclosure walls are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the second and fourth enclosure walls,
heating segments formed by groups of the steam generator tubes connected in parallel,
first passage collectors connected to the steam generator tubes such that the flow medium from first heating surface segments of the first, the second, the third, and the fourth enclosure walls of the lower combustion chamber region are admixed together and delivered as a combined flow to second heating surface segments of the first and the third enclosure walls of the upper combustion chamber region, and
second passage collectors connected to the steam generator tubes such that the combined flow is then delivered from the second heating surface segments of the first and the third enclosu
