Title:
IN-CYLINDER SWIRL COMBUSTOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3873119
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an in-cylinder swirl combustor capable of maintaining a flame even when the fuel/air ratio is less than the lean flammable limit of a homogeneous premixed gas, and capable of complete combustion and low NOx combustion without regulating the amount of air flow.
SOLUTION: The in-cylinder swirl combustor is equipped with a cylindrical combustion chamber 11 with one end as a bottom surface 12, and inside it, a swirling flow 22 composed of air, fuel or mixed air/fuel flowing from a slot-like opening 18 in the tangential direction is formed around a central axis 20 and a cylindrical flame surface substantially symmetric in regard to the central axis 20 is maintained. On the upper side of the cylindrical combustion chamber 11, a pilot combustion chamber 11a having a smaller diameter than that of the cylindrical combustion chamber 11 is formed, and inside it, like the swirling flow 22, a pilot swirling flow 22a and a cylindrical pilot flame is formed, which spreads outward when flowing to the cylindrical combustion chamber 11 and surely becomes an ignition source even when the fuel/air ratio is smaller than the lean flammable limit.
