TECHNOLOGICAL HEATER, MAINLY, FOR STABILIZATION OF NATURAL GAS IN GASEOUS STATE AND RADIATION GAS BURNER OF INFRARED EMISSION Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC F22B7/12 F23D14/12 

FIELD: the invention is assigned for heating liquid oil products, gaseous and liquid mediums and may be used in pipeline transport.

SUBSTANCE: the technological heater has a hermetic capacity filled with an intermediate heat-carrying agent till the limiter of the level connected with a normalizer of pressure of vapor of liquid heat-carrying agent. In the upper part of the capacity there is a horizontal tubular heat exchanger located above the surface of liquid heat-carrying agent, connected through the collectors for feeding and discharging of heated medium with the main gas pipeline. Above the horizontal heat exchanger there is a radiation heat exchanger in the shape of a vapor generator submerged in an intermediate heat-carrying agent submerged below its level. The vapor generator is fulfilled out of vertical communicating heating tubes hermetically welded into the bottom of the capacity. The heating tubes are located in several rows and their upper and low ends are communicated correspondingly with a chimney tube and the burning chamber. In the burning chamber there is a radiation gas burner of infrared emission installed under the bottom of the hermetic capacity with the aid of brackets. The exchangeable radiation gas burner of infrared emission has the main and additional sections. Each section has a prominent splitter directed with its prominence in the direction of running jet of air-gas mixture. The body of the burner is fulfilled in the shape of rectangular frame out of tubular elements forming sockets in which the heads of the burner are located. Each socket is hermetically connected with its hermetic casing in the shape of a run-out connected in its turn hermetically with an injector on the site of distribution of air-gas mixture to communicating with it channels. The gas nozzle of the burner is installed on the collector with a feeding gas branch pipe. The front, along the feed of natural gas, part of the injector is provided with an air intake and regulator of air feeding. The removable head of the burner is fulfilled in the shape of rectangular gas-permeability plate out of placed on the lattice frame of twisted and forming cells elements with profile transverse section connected in united whole fibers out of heat-proof and heat-resistant material with forming of an open volume porosity in the shape of through labyrinth channels. The removable head of the burner is framed along the perimeter in transverse section with Z-shaped upper and low shells.

EFFECT: increases coefficient of efficiency, reduces thermal losses, intensifies processes of thermal transfer and increases reliability.
