8 Claims. (Cl. 122-510) The invention relates to an improved apparatus for heating fluids and refers more particularly to an improved form of heater having aircooled supports for the fluid conduit, the passage of air through said supports for cooling the same being induced by the stack draft.
The invention is particularly applicable to heaters of the type wherein one portion of the fluid conduit is exposed to direct radiation from flames and hot combustion gases, while another portion thereof is heated by direct contact with combustion gases which have given up a substantial portion of their radiant heat to the first mentioned portion of the fluid conduit, both portions of the fluid conduit (i. e., that heated predominantly by radiation and that heated subthe features of the invention and in which the improved method of heating provided by the instantially by convection) being supported by the 1 same air-cooled tubular members through which a flow of air is induced by the draft action of the furnace stack. However, the invention is not limited to this specific embodiment since its features are, in their broader sense, applicable to many, different types of fluid heaters including those employing heating predominantly by radiation and those employing heating predominantly by direct contact between combustion gases and the fluid conduit, as well as the preferred type, previously mentioned, which employs heating by both radiation and convection.
By passing air through tubular members which support the heating coil or fluid conduit, in the manner provided bythe invention, overheating of the tube supports, which would result in their distortion or failure, is prevented. This is particularly important as applied to supporting members for a fluid conduit located in a relatively hot zone. The trend in modern furnace design, particularly as applied to the oil refining industry, is to employ exceptionally high rates offactory solution is offered in the present invention.
The method and means provided by the invention for inducing the flow of air through the aircooledsupporting members of the fluid conduit is simple and eflective and avoids the use of fans or blowers by employing the natural draft action of the stack. 7
The accompanying diagrammatic drawing illus- Vention may be conducted. The form of heater shown in the drawing is a simple and inexpensive type and it is chosen to illustrate the invention for this reason. Itwill, of course, be understood, as previously stated, that the features of the invention' may be employed to advantage in many other specific forms and types of heaters and, since other adaptations will be readily apparent to those familiar with the art, they are entirely within the scope of the invention.
Figure 1 of the drawing is an elevational view,
partially in cross-section, of a heater embodying the features of the invention and Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the same heater taken along a plane indicated by line 2-2 in Figure 1.
The main furnace structure comprises an outer wall I, a roof 2 and a floor 3. The walls, roof and floor are of suitable refractory material which may, for example, be fire-brick shapes or one of the several types of materials which are placed in semi-solid or plastic form and upon hardening trates one specific form of apparatus embodying or setting possess good refractory characteristics. A suitable metallic shell or housing 4 incases the refractory walls, roof and floor of the furnace and this housing extends, as indicated at 5, beneath floor 3 and is anchored to a suitable foundation 6,.a space I being provided between floor 3 and the foundation. The upper portion of housing 4 supports a stack 8 in which a suitable damper 9 is provided.
The heater here illustrated was designed for heating fluid hydrocarbons to relatively high temperatures and the fluid conduit through which they are passed comprises a tubular coil Ill having several helical turns and a series of flat spiral coils I I disposed above and connected with coil III in series, the several flat spiral coils also being connected with each other for series flow therethrough. Coil I0 is disposed within the central portion of the heater which comprises combustion andheating zone [2 and the tubular turns of this coil are located relatively close to .the circular'walls I of the heater, leaving an un- A burner I4 is provided within space I with the floor 3 of the furnace and foundation 6. In the particular case here illustrated, this burner is supplied with gaseous fuel through line It and valve l6, although fluid fuel may be employed, 5 when desired. Air is admitted to space I through opening II in shell 5, the quantity of air, thus admitted, being controlled by suitable sliding damper arrangements such as indicated, for example, at [8. A portion of the air for combustion is admitted to the burner through a suitable mixing device l9 and the combustible mixture is discharged'from the mouth of the burner through burner port 20 to the combustion zone wherein it is burned. Additional air for combustion is mixed with the materials discharged from the mouth of the burner as they pass through burner port '20 by admitting the same from space 1 through space 2| provided between the mouth of the burner and the tuyre or burner block 22. A checker-work 23 of fire-brick or the like is provided within the furnace immediately above burner port 20. The purpose of' this checker-work'is to diffuse the flame and give more uniform distribution of the radiant heat.
The flames and hot combustion gases are directed upwardly from the burner port and check er-work through heating zone l2 and the tubular coil I0 is heated by bothdirect radiant and convection heat. The combustion gases which have given up a substantial portion of their heat to coil I0 pass upwardly from combustion zone I 2 into direct and intimate contact with the tubular element of coils II, which they serve wheat, and pass thence upwardly'through stack 8 to the at- Y mosphere.
Coils l0 and II are both supported, in the case here illustrated, on three vertically disposed tubular elements 24 which, as indicated in Figure 2, are spaced approximately 120 apart on a circle somewhat larger in diameter than that about which coil I0 is wound. In this particular case, coil I0 is attached to tube supports 24 by welding, as indicated at 25 in Figure 1, and radial members 26 welded to tubes 24-support the tube bank comprising coils ll, each of the flat spiral coils tube and each of the tubular supporting members is open at its upper end to permit the discharge of heated air therefrom. The flow of air through members 24 is induced by the draft action of stack 8 and, in passing through the tubes, the air is heated by radiation of the flames and hot combustion gases in zone l2 of the heater and its flow thereby augmented. Preferably, as here illustrated, the lower portion of members 24 are insulated with any suitable insulating material capable of withstanding the high temperatures encountered. This insulation preferably extends from floor 3' to a point somewhat above checker-work 23 and protects tubes 24 against 70 overheating in the hottest zoneof the furnace. The air leaving the upper ends of members 24 commingles with the combustion gases passing to the stack and serves to reduce the temperature of the stack gases and thereby reduce the sever 7 stack gases.
ity of conditions to which the flue and stack are subjected. v 7
Other means of supporting either or both of the coils in and II from members 24 will be apparent and may be employed within the scope of the invention.
