Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Überwachung eines Verbrennungsvorganges eines Brenners, wie beispielsweise eines modulierenden Premix-Ölbrenners.The invention relates to a method for monitoring a combustion process of a burner, such as a modulating premix oil burner.
Premix-Ölbrenner verfügen über ein Gemischaufbereitungssystem für flüssige Brennstoffe, bei dem eine Verdampfung des Brennstoffes erfolgt und nachfolgend eine Mischung mit Verbrennungsluft durchgeführt wird. Wird ein solcher modulierender Ölbrenner im Zusammenhang mit einem Brennwert-Kessel eingesetzt, ist die Überwachung der zugeführten Luftmenge von besonderer Bedeutung.Premix oil burners have a liquid fuel mixture preparation system which evaporates the fuel and subsequently mixes it with combustion air. If such a modulating oil burner is used in conjunction with a condensing boiler, the monitoring of the amount of air supplied is of particular importance.
Die Erfindung soll ein Verfahren angeben, das eine besonders gute Überwachung des Verbrennungsvorganges eines Brenners ermöglicht.The invention is intended to specify a method which allows a particularly good monitoring of the combustion process of a burner.
Diese Aufgabe wird mittels eines Verfahrens gemäß dem Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by means of a method according to the patent claim 1.
Bei dem Verfahren wird ein Quotient aus zwei vorbestimmten Parametern des Verbrennungsvorganges gebildet und der Wert des Quotienten bestimmt. Dann wird geprüft, ob der Wert des Quotienten in einem vorbestimmten Bereich liegt und ein dem Ergebnis dieser Prüfung entsprechendes Erkennungssignal ausgegeben.In the method, a quotient of two predetermined parameters of the combustion process is formed and the value of the quotient is determined. It is then checked whether the value of the quotient lies within a predetermined range and outputs a detection signal corresponding to the result of this test.
Durch diese Vorgehensweise kann auf sehr einfache Art und Weise eine äußerst genaue Überwachung eines Verbrennungsvorganges eines Brenners ermöglicht werden.By doing so, a highly accurate monitoring of a combustion process of a burner can be made possible in a very simple manner.
Als Dividend des Quotienten wird ein Parameter verwendet, der von der zugeführten Brennstoffmenge abhängt. Als Parameter kann hierfür beispielsweise die Frequenz eines Ausgangssignals oder Ansteuersignals einer ein bestimmtes Volumen pro Impuls fördernden Ölpumpe bestimmt werden.The dividend of the quotient is a parameter that depends on the amount of fuel supplied. As a parameter, for example, the frequency of an output signal or drive signal of a specific volume per pulse promotional oil pump can be determined.
Als Divisor des Quotienten kann ein Parameter verwendet werden, der von der zugeführten Luftmenge abhängt. Die zugeführte Luftmenge kann durch radizieren des Überdruckes der zugeführten Luftmenge ermittelt werden. Der Überdruck wiederum kann beispielsweise mit Hilfe eines Drucksensors ermittelt werden, der im Luftstrom der zugeführten Luft nach einem Gebläse und vor einer Mischeinrichtung angeordnet ist.As a divisor of the quotient, a parameter can be used that depends on the amount of air supplied. The amount of air supplied can be determined by radicalizing the overpressure of the amount of air supplied. The overpressure in turn can be determined, for example, with the aid of a pressure sensor which is arranged in the air flow of the supplied air after a fan and before a mixing device.
Alternativ kann der Divisor des Quotienten auch mit Hilfe der Drehzahl eines Gebläsemotors des Gebläses bestimmt werden.Alternatively, the divisor of the quotient can also be determined by means of the speed of a blower motor of the blower.
Vorteilhafter Weise wird der dem Erkennungssignal zu Grunde liegende Quotient mit Hilfe eines Mikroprozessors kontinuierlich bestimmt. Dementsprechend wird auch das Erkennungssignal kontinuierlich ausgegeben und zeigt somit stets den aktuellen Zustand des Verbrennungsvorganges an.Advantageously, the quotient underlying the detection signal is determined continuously with the aid of a microprocessor. Accordingly, the detection signal is continuously output and thus always indicates the current state of the combustion process.
Da aber ein Verdampfen des Brennstoffes mit einem gewissen zeitlichen Aufwand verbunden ist, kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn der den Dividenden betreffende Parameter mit einer vorbestimmten Verzögerung an den Mikroprozessor weitergegeben wird.However, since evaporation of the fuel involves a certain amount of time, it may be advantageous if the parameter relating to the dividends is forwarded to the microprocessor with a predetermined delay.
Ebenfalls ergeben sich bauliche Einsparungen, wenn zur Bestimmung des Quotienten ein Mikroprozessor verwendet wird, der ohnehin Bestandteil der Steuereinrichtung des Brenners ist.Structural savings also result if a microprocessor is used to determine the quotient, which is already part of the control device of the burner anyway.
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Figur erläutert.The invention will be explained below with reference to the figure.
In der Figur ist mit E eine Erkennungseinrichtung gekennzeichnet, die beispielsweise durch einen Mikroprozessor gebildet werden kann. Dieser Erkennungseinrichtung E werden zwei Signale zugeführt.In the figure, E denotes a recognition device which can be formed, for example, by a microprocessor. This detection device E, two signals are supplied.
Das erste Signal ist ein Luftdrucksignal P eines analogen Drucksensors. Bei dem zweiten Signal handelt es sich um Impulse eines Ansteuersignals einer volumetrischen Ölpumpe mit der Frequenz F.The first signal is an air pressure signal P of an analog pressure sensor. The second signal is pulses of a drive signal of a volumetric oil pump with the frequency F.
Die Erkennungseinrichtung E bestimmt aus dem ersten Signal eine Information über die dem Verbrennungsvorgang zugeführte Luftmenge und aus dem zweiten Signal eine Information über die dem Verbrennungsvorgang zugeführte Brennstoffmenge. Die Erkennungseinrichtung E bildet aus diesen beiden Informationen einen Quotienten und überprüft, ob dieser Quotient in einem vorbestimmten Bereich liegt. Der vorbestimmte Bereich kann auch mehrere Teilbereiche erfassen, die nicht notwendigerweise zusammen hängen.The detection device E determines from the first signal information about the amount of air supplied to the combustion process and from the second signal information about the amount of fuel supplied to the combustion process. The recognition device E forms a quotient from these two pieces of information and checks whether this quotient lies within a predetermined range. The predetermined area may also cover a plurality of portions that do not necessarily hang together.
Die Erkennungseinrichtung verfügt des weiteren über einen digitalen Ausgang A. Kommt die Erkennungseinrichtung zu dem Ergebnis, dass der Quotient in dem vorbestimmten Bereich liegt, gibt sie eine logische "1" aus, anderenfalls eine logische "0".The recognition device furthermore has a digital output A. If the recognition device concludes that the quotient lies within the predetermined range, it outputs a logical "1", otherwise a logical "0".
Üblicherweise beansprucht die Verdampfung des Brennstoffes eine gewisse Zeit. Aus diesem Grund kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Erkennungseinrichtung das einem zweiten Eingang zugeführte Signal dementsprechend zeitlich verzögert um eine genaue Zuordnung der Parameter des Verbrennungsprozesses zu ermöglichen.Usually, the evaporation of the fuel takes some time. For this reason, it can be provided that the detection device correspondingly delays the signal supplied to a second input in order to allow an exact allocation of the parameters of the combustion process.
Mittels dem gezeigten Verfahren kann mittels der gezeigten Einrichtung auf einfache Art und Weise eine genaue Überwachung eines Verbrennungsvorganges eines Brenners erfolgen.By means of the method shown, a precise monitoring of a combustion process of a burner can be carried out by means of the device shown in a simple manner.
