Burning method of woody pellet and burning apparatus thereof
View Patent ↗To suppress the generation of clinker so as to prevent the generation of a burning trouble, ceramic particles 30 are covered over a porous plate 4 to form a fire bed 3 . Woody pellets 31 are scattered on the fire bed and combustion air is ejected from the lower side of the porous plate so as to burn the pellets. At the time of discharging ash generated by the burning to a secondary combustion space on the downstream side together with an air current of the combustion air or combustion gas, the ceramic particle layers and the woody pellet layer are stirred by a stirring section 21, 22 to thereby break clinker of the combustion ash formed in the fire bed, whereby the growth of the clinker is suppressed and the generation of a burning trouble is prevented.
1. An apparatus for burning woody pellets, comprising:
a porous plate which includes many holes;
a fire bed which is formed by covering ceramic particles in a layer manner on the porous plate;
fuel supply section which supplies woody pellets on the fire bed;
air supply section which supplies combustion air to the fire bed from the holes of the porous plate;
a firing burner which fires the woody pellets;
a secondary combustion space which introduces combustion gas generated from the fire bed therein and burns the gas; and
a stirring section which stirs the layer of the ceramic particles on the fire bed by using a member which moves along a plate surface of the porous plate,
wherein the fire bed is formed by covering the ceramic particles in a layer manner in an area surrounded by a pair of side plates disposed vertically with respect to the porous plate and a front plate and a rear plate respectively disposed at both ends of the side plates, and
the porous plate is supported so as to be movable in front and rear directions in a manner that a front end and a rear end thereof are respectively inserted into slits formed at the front plate and the rear plate, and
the stirring section includes:
a plurality of long holes each elongated in a vertical direction which are formed at each of the pair of the side plates of the fire bed in a manner that the long holes are formed with an interval in the front and rear direction of the side plates at corresponding opposed positions of the side plates;
a plurality of stirring rods each of which is inserted in corresponding pair of the opposed long holes of the pair of the side plates; and
a driving section which moves the porous plate in the front and rear directions.
