Baffle assembly structure for producing fluid or flame whirls
Abstract
The present invention discloses a baffle assembly structure for
producing fluid or flame whirls, which is applied to water-washing
or chemical-washing washing towers or heat-resisting burning
towers. The structure has a diversion area disposed at a position
corresponding to an air inlet in the tower for providing a
tangential acceleration for the gas entering into the washing tower
or the whirl burning tower, and then the gas will enter into a
whirl panel composed of the baffle assembly structure for producing
whirls. With the water spray and sprinkle, a good whirling effect
will be produced, or a good whirl burning effect is produced for
the oil-gas ignition of the whirl burning tower. After different
shaped baffles are intersected, arranged and disposed flatly to
separate the tower body, the throttle baffle and the baffle produce
a negative pressure effect for the gas, so as to improve the water
solubility or concentrate the water remained in the washing tower
for a chemical washing. With the water or flame whirls in the
whirling baffles, the stability of whirls can be improved, and thus
the solubility, reaction and filtering efficiency of the washing
tower can be improved effectively, so as to enhance the complete
combustion, the reaction and energy efficiency of the burning
tower.

Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to a baffle assembly
structure, and more particularly to a baffle assembly structure
that uses a special airflow diversion panel or baffle to produce a
negative pressure effect for a gas and stably produce water whirls
or flame whirls to effectively improve the solubility, reaction,
and filtration (or efficiency of combustion), and the baffle
assembly structure is applied to a washing tower that uses water or
chemicals for washing or applied to a heat-resisting burning
tower.
[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art
[0004] In general, the present baffles are used for controlling
airflows, and the control of fluid whirls and gases is disclosed.
The water flows, fluid whirls, or flame whirls usually adopt the
use of baffles, but a special water whirl, fluid whirl or flame
whirl has never been used for developing a whirl washing tower or a
whirl burning tower.
[0005] There are different traditional mechanisms used for
dissolving gases (or combusting air or gases), but most traditional
Venturi washing mechanisms are small or traditional washing
mechanisms with fillers (or traditional heat-pipe boilers)
installed in households, and these mechanisms can be used for an
air filter structure (or an air oxidation structure for combustion)
for large-scale chemical, dyeing and spray paint factories. An
advanced high-solubility (or high combustion efficiency) is seldom
used in these mechanisms. Since factories generally come with a
large area of land and involve high concentrated chemical gases and
large airflows that may contain a large quantity of toxic gases,
therefore the traditional washing structure not only has poor
solubility, but also gets clogged easily. Traditional washing
structures are not applicable for factories having super large wind
flow, or the traditional burning structure containing toxic gases
with a large quantity of heat has poor combustion efficiency and
also gets clogged easily, and such prior art also causes a
secondary contamination and an unclean combustion, and thus the
prior art is inapplicable for factories with a super large wind
flow for combustions.
[0006] In general, the principle of the washing tower used in a
large-scale factory utilizes a filler (such as a Raschig ring
layer) and sprays and sprinkles water on the filler to dissolve
gases and water. If the airflow is large, then the required
quantity of fillers will be large, the volume of the tower will
become large, the filter will require a slow reaction to improve
efficiency, and the volume of invested equipments and the area of
land will incur a very high cost. Therefore, the effect of a
traditional method of using fillers is obviously poor, and the
solubility for water washing is approximately 60%, and the cost of
using so many fillers for the heat resistance is very high and
definitely not cost-effective.
[0007] Further, the principle of existing technologies adopted by a
burning tower in a large-scale factory employs a combustion chamber
and sprays water, and allows air and fuel to be burned and reacted
at a tube (or a waterwall tube), and the hot water boiled in the
tube is converted into steam for its use. If the airflow is large,
the quantity of combustion chambers will become large, the volume
of the tower will be large, the burning speed will become slow to
improve the efficiency, and the volume of invested equipments as
well as the area of land will incur a very high cost. Therefore,
the effect of a traditional method of using fillers is poor because
the combustion efficiency is approximately 60%, and the cost of
using so many equipments for the secondary pollution prevention and
involving so many times of combustions is very high and definitely
not cost-effective.
[0008] The existing shortcomings of the present washing towers and
burning towers require improvements, and thus designing an improved
structure of a washing tower and a burning tower demands immediate
attentions and feasible solutions.
[0009] In view of the shortcomings of the present washing towers
and burning towers, the inventor of the present invention based on
years of experience and professional skills in the related industry
to conduct extensive researches and experiments, and finally
invented a novel baffle assembly structure for producing fluid or
flame whirls in accordance with the present invention, in hope of
overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art.

can substitute the fillers by a whirl washing, or substitute a
combustion chamber by flame whirls to enhance the
cost-effectiveness and practicability.

shaped baffle, a combination of a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle

oil-gas separator, when the baffle surfaces are disposed
horizontally, obliquely or vertically, and further have the
function of producing a whirlpool, a liquid flow or a flame whirls
when the baffle surfaces are disposed flatly.
[0023] The primary technical contents of the present invention are
described as follows:
[0024] The baffle assembly structure of the present invention can
be installed in a traditional washing tower having fillers. If a
shaped baffle or a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle, or a shaped
baffle and a shaped baffle are intersected and kinked, or a "_"
shaped baffle and a "/_\" shaped baffle, or a "_" shaped baffle and
a "_" shaped baffle, or a shaped baffle, or a shaped baffle, or a "
_ " shaped baffle are kinked and placed flatly to substitute the
traditional filler, the gas together with the current will pass
through the baffle surface in a vertical direction to produce a
whirl washing effect. Such improved water washing or chemical
washing method can be used in a heat-resisting whirl washing tower
to substitute the traditional filler. If all angles of the shaped
baffle are right angles, then irregular whirls are produced by the
gas at a windward side easily, and thus air turbulence will not
occur due to the quick drying of the wind at the wind extracting
side, when the baffle is placed at the wind extracting side.
Therefore, the shaped baffle is no longer needed, and just the
shaped baffle or shaped baffle or novel diversion baffle is used
and kinked with the shaped baffle only, such that the liquid drops
of each gas will be concentrated at the bottom of the filter of the
shaped baffle. Similarly to the "_" shaped baffle that goes with
the "/_\" shaped baffle, its principle is to use a shaped baffle
with its opening facing a wind extracting side (with a or a shaped
concave surface) and a shaped baffle with their opening facing a
windward side ( shaped or shaped convex surface) are kinked with
each other, such that the gas passing through the shaped baffle
produces a whirl, and concentrates the gas-water washing at the
whirling section, because all angles of the shaped baffle are right
angles, and thus the baffles disposed at the wind extracting side
will not produce whirls easily but will produce unsmooth wind
extractions for the gas, and the whirls produced by a shaped baffle
situated at the windward side are irregular. As a result,
turbulences will not occur, and each gas-water washing is
concentrated at the filter of the shaped baffle. Particularly, the
tiny aggregates of the water washing are turned into a washing
tower with a high solubility. The traditional washing tower only
has one filter with fillers for the washing, and thus it
effectively increases the solubility by several times.
[0025] A combination of baffles can produce a whirl washing, and an
improved water washing or chemical washing for a heat-resisting
washing tower. An air inlet is disposed on a side of the washing
tower and an air outlet is disposed on another side of the washing
tower. The interior of the washing tower has a diversion area
disposed at a position corresponding to the air inlet for producing
a linear tangential acceleration for the gas entering into the
washing tower, and providing a good whirling effect for the
whirlpools produced by the gas entering into the whirling baffles
and the water spray and sprinkle. Further, the bottom of the
washing tower has a water collecting tank, and an appropriate
position at the center of the washing tower has a plurality of
baffles intersected and arranged flatly for guiding the water flows
and serving as a partition for the washing tower. The external side
of the baffle has a throttle baffle, such that the water flow can
evenly pass through a gap between the external side (or a windward
side) of the baffle surface having an angle smaller than 90 degrees
and an oblique baffle or an angle iron baffle. A negative pressure
will be produced due to a speed difference, and such gap can
withhold any impurities having a specific gravity greater than the
gas. Such improved multi-whirling dust collector and oil-gas
separator can produce a negative pressure effect for the gas by the
throttle baffle and the whirling baffles to improve the water
solubility and enhance the reaction effect of the chemical washing,
such that the water can be remained evenly in the washing tower.
The whirlpools in the whirling baffles can increase the stability
of the whirls and improve the solubility, reaction and filtering
efficiency effectively.
[0026] A baffle combined at the whirl diversion structure of the
whirling washing tower can produce whirlpools concentrated at a
whirling section of the gas-water washing, and the shaped baffle or
the "_" shaped baffle gathers a large quantity of unsettled water
at the internal side of the baffle, such that if air and water flow
in the directions opposite to each other, a plurality of holes
situated at the shaped baffle allow the air and water to pass
through the gap of the shaped baffle surface, and the holes can
improve the stability of discharging water without getting clogged
easily.
[0027] A water current with a tangential acceleration encounters
many small whirling baffles to produce many small whirls for the
water washing, and the original large pressure of the large whirl
washing is divided into many whirls with smaller pressure for the
whirl washing, and the pressure of only one small whirl is needed
for the whirl washing. As a result, the loss of motive pressure of
the air can be reduced, and the large whirls can dissolve large
contaminants, and the small whirls can dissolve smaller
contaminants at a faster dissolving speed. Therefore, a water
washing tower capable of producing many small whirls is a water
washing tower having a low resistance and a high solubility at a
high speed. Furthermore, there is another method for producing
fluid whirls, wherein a whirling baffle is fixed transversally in
an airtight container to serve as a static stirrer for mixing and
stirring different liquids flowing into the whirling baffle, such
that the water current extraction constantly mixes and stirs the
liquids by fluid whirls, so as to achieve the effect of a static
stirring. Similarly, the same principle is applied to other
aforementioned baffles.
[0028] In a baffle assembly structure of the invention installed in
a traditional burning tower, if a shaped baffle and a shaped
baffle, or a "_" shaped baffle and a "_" shaped baffle, or a shaped
baffle and a shaped baffle, or a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle,
or a "_" shaped baffle and a "/_\" shaped baffle, or a shaped
baffle, or a shaped baffle, or a " _ " shaped baffle are
intersected, kinked and disposed flatly to substitute the
traditional combustion chamber, the baffle of this kind comprises a
plurality of tubes (or waterwall tubes) or waterwall panels, such
that a gas can be passed to produce a whirling burning. The
improved burning mechanism provides a gas burning or a spray
burning for complete combustions and serves as a heat-resisting
whirl burning tower to substitute the traditional combustion
chamber, shaped baffle or "_" shaped baffle and each angle is a
corner rounding angle that sets the whirls produced at windward
side by the gas at a regular rotating state, and each liquid drop
of the gas is concentrated at the bottom of the filter of a shaped
baffle or a "_" shaped baffle. The principle is to intersect and
arrange the shaped baffles or the "_" shaped baffles and then stack
the baffles layer by layer. Similarly, the openings of the shaped
baffles or "_" shaped baffles are facing towards each other or the
openings of the shaped baffles or "_" shaped baffles are disposed
at positions facing towards the opening of a layer of the shaped
baffle or the "_" shaped baffle and connected to form a whole piece
of combustion chamber, such that the gas passing through the shaped
baffle or the "_" shaped baffle produces whirls and gather the
burning gas at the whirling section, because each angle of the
baffles is a corner rounding angle that can produce whirls easily
and blow gas smoothly, such that the whirls produced at a windward
side by the shaped baffle or the "_" shaped baffle are in a regular
state. By then, the gas will enter into another layer without
causing any turbulence, so that the gas combustion is occurred in
the filter of the baffle. Particularly for the tiny aggregates of
the combustion, the whirlwind linearly introduced to the
circumference and the heat exchange will improve the whirls and
expand the burning, so that the sparks and embers fly in different
directions to reinforce the flame. After layers of reinforcements
of the even combustions, a burning tower with high combustion
efficiency is provided. Compared with the traditional burning tower
that has only one combustion chamber for the combustion, the
invention can effectively increase the combustion efficiency by
several times.
[0029] Therefore, the present invention provides a baffle
combination to produce whirl combustion and an improved burning
mechanism for burring gas or spray with complete combustions. The
heat-resisting burning tower is a novel multi-whirling burning
tower that has an air inlet disposed on a side of the sealed
burning tower and an air outlet disposed on another side of the
burning tower, and a diversion area and a diversion panel are
disposed in the burning tower and at positions corresponding to the
air inlet, such that the whirling baffle becomes a combustion
chamber for producing a linear tangential acceleration for the gas
entering into the burning tower, and providing a good whirling
combustion effect for the oil and spray entering into the whirling
baffles and gather into a large quantity of flame whirls at the
internal side of the baffles. Further, the bottom of the burning
tower has a blower, and an appropriate central position of the
burning tower has a plurality of novel intersected and arranged
baffles disposed flatly to serve as a partition for the burning
tower to cope with the currents. In the foregoing whirl burning, a
shaped baffle and a shaped baffle or a "_" shaped baffle and a
"/_\" shaped baffle are intersected and arranged and stacked flatly
on each other. Similarly, the openings of the shaped baffle or "_"
shaped baffle are facing towards each other or the openings of the
or the "_" shaped baffle are facing towards a layer of the shaped
baffle or the "/_\" shaped baffle and disposed and coupled together
to form a whole piece of combustion chamber. In the burning layers,
liquids or solids are usually placed at a second layer or a third
layer to expand the gap that serves as a primary combustion
chamber, when the liquid or solid is burned, and then the negative
pressure attraction state continues the burning downward to a
fourth layer and a fifth layer or a next layer that serves as a
secondary combustion chamber. The baffle has built an ignition
point, and such multi-whirling burning tower can produce a negative
pressure effect by the speed difference of the gas at the diversion
panels and baffles, so as to improve the combustion efficiency or
concentrate the whirls to improve the combustion efficiency and
provide a complete combustion for the gas remained at the whirling
baffles. Further, the flame whirls in the whirling baffle can
enhance the stability for complete combustions, and many whirls are
used for increasing the holdup time, so as to effectively improve
the efficiency for complete combustion, reaction and energy.
[0030] A current having a tangential acceleration encounters many
small whirls, and the baffle produces many small burning whirl
current. The original large whirl burning having a large pressure
is subdivided into many small whirl burnings having a small
pressure. Only one small whirl burning pressure is sufficient, and
thus the loss of the dynamic pressure of the air is reduced. The
large whirls can burn large impurities, and small whirls can burn
smaller impurities, and the burning speed becomes faster.
Therefore, the whirl burning tower having many small whirls is a
burning tower having a low holdup time and a fast burning speed.
Similarly, this principle also can be applied to the aforementioned
other baffles.
[0031] Further, a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle, or a shaped
baffle and a shaped baffle, or a "_" shaped baffle and a "_" shaped
baffle, or a "_" shaped baffle and a "/_\" shaped baffle, or a
shaped baffle or a " _ " shaped baffle are kinked, and the whole
area is disposed vertically or obliquely to provide the functions
of a multi-whirling dust collector and an oil-gas separator. Such
baffles are disposed flatly to provide a whirl washing tower or a
whirl burning tower. Similarly, this principle also can be applied
to the aforementioned other baffles.
[0032] In summation of the description above, the present invention
relates to a baffle assembly structure for producing fluid or flame
whirls, and the baffle assembly structure is applied to a washing
tower or a heat-resisting burning tower for water washing or
chemical washing. The tower has a diversion area disposed inside
the tower and at a position corresponding to the air inlet for
producing a tangential acceleration to the gas entering into the
washing tower or the whirl burning tower, and the gas enters into
the whirling panel is comprised of the baffle assembly structure
and capable of producing whirls. With the water spray and sprinkle,
a good whirling effect is provided, or a good whirl burning effect
is provided for the spray oil/gas ignition of the whirl burning
tower. Various baffles of the present invention are intersected,
arranged, and disposed flatly to separate the tower, and the
throttle baffle and the baffle produce a negative pressure effect
to the gas, and improve the water solubility and enhance the
chemical washing by concentrating the reaction at the water
remained in the washing tower. The water whirls/flame whirls in the
whirling baffles can increase the stability of whirls, and thus
improving the solubility, reaction and filtering efficiency of the
washing tower and providing complete combustions for the burning
tower as well as enhancing the reaction and energy efficiency.
[0033] With the foregoing technical solutions, the baffle assembly
structure for producing fluid or flame whirls in accordance with
the present invention has the following advantages:

of the gas, the wind speed, the filter, and the filtering area to
accomplish the required effects.
[0039] 6. Compared with the slow wind speed of the traditional
washing towers having fillers to achieve the washing effect, the
baffle assembly structure of the present invention applied to the
washing tower can kink the baffles with each other to expedite the
wind speed and achieve the required effects.
[0040] 7. Compared with the traditional washing towers having
fillers, the baffle assembly structure of the present invention

[0044] 11. Compared with the burning tower of a traditional
combustion chamber, the baffle assembly structure of the present

each other to substitute a combustion chamber and provide a
heat-resisting whirl burning, so as to lower the cost of the whirl
burning tower operated at the same high temperature.
[0045] 12. Compared with the burning tower of a traditional
combustion chamber, the baffle assembly structure of the present
invention applied to the burning tower can kink the baffles with
each other to provide a large plasticity and set the size and the
kinking interval of the baffles according to the wind flow, the
heat of the burning gas, the wind speed, the pressure, and the
filtering area to accomplish the required effects.

combustion chamber, the baffle assembly structure of the present
invention applied to the burning tower can kink the baffles with
each other to expedite the wind speed to achieve the required

each other, so that it is not necessary to have a very high wind
pressure, and the wind pressure of the burning tower can be equal
to the wind pressure of the burning tower of the traditional
combustion chamber.
[0048] 15. Compared with the burning tower of the traditional
combustion chamber, the application of boiler can substitute the
super heater to reduce the facilities and save energy of a burning
tower of the traditional combustion chamber.

fluid or flame whirls to substitute prior art fillers or combustion
chambers. Regardless of the structure or function of the product,

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0076] To further describe the technical measures and effects taken
for achieving the expected objectives of the present invention,
preferred embodiments, structure, and performance of the baffle
assembly structure of the present invention are described as
follows. The baffle assembly structure of the present invention can
be installed in a novel washing tower as well as in a traditional
washing tower having fillers to substitute the use of fillers. Each
shaped baffle is made of metal. In the present invention, the shape
of each baffle such as "_", "/_\", "\_/", and " _ " constitute an
integral structure. These shapes are illustrated in the figures,
but not intended for limiting the shape of the baffles of the
invention.
[0077] Referring to FIGS. 2 to 5, 10 and 13 together with FIGS. 6
to 9, 11, 12, 14, and 15 for a washing tower having a baffle
assembly structure that produces fluid whirls for washing in
accordance with the present invention, the washing tower could be a
water washing tower, a chemical washing tower or a heat-resisting
sealed washing tower. In the washing tower of the invention, the
sealed washing tower 10 includes an air inlet 11 disposed on a side
of the tower, and an air outlet 12 disposed on another side of the
tower. The washing tower 10 includes a baffle assembly structure
having a control valve and a diversion panel 14 disposed in the
tower 10 and at positions proximate to the air inlet 11 for
adjusting the flow and producing a linear tangential acceleration
for the gas entering into the washing tower 10 respectively, and
then the gas enters into the tower 10 to produce whirls. With a
water spray and a water sprinkle, a good whirling effect is
provided for the whirl currents. Further, the bottom of the washing
tower has a water washing tank 13, and the washing tower 10 has
several intersected and arranged baffle surfaces 20 disposed at
appropriate positions at the center of the washing tower 10 (refer
to FIGS. 2 to 5 and 10), wherein the baffle surface 20 is a surface
of the baffle assembly structure and composed of a combination of
baffles in various different shapes. Referring to FIGS. 6 to 9, 11,
12, 14 and 15 for a baffle surface 20 which is a surface of a
baffle formed by inverting the two right angles of a shaped baffle
21 to form a shaped baffle 22, and each angle of the shaped baffle
22 is greater than 90 degrees; or a surface of a baffle formed by
bending several angles into a shaped baffle 22 or intersecting two
tangents of two circles to form a shaped baffle 22, such that the
gap produced after engaging the baffles is equal to 0.45.about.0.65
times of the two circles; or a surface of a "_" shaped baffle 19.
The baffle surface 20 is disposed transversally in the tower for
partitioning the washing tower. When a gas is guided into the
foregoing baffles, a shaped baffle 21 with its opening faces
towards a wind extracting side to avoid the mutual interference of
currents, and a shaped baffle 22 with its opening faces towards a
windward side, and the baffles are intersected, embedded and kinked
with each other; or a "/_\" shaped baffle 18 with its opening faces
towards a wind extracting side, and a "_" shaped baffle 19 with its
opening faces towards a windward side and the baffles are
intersected, embedded and kinked with each other; or the foregoing
baffles 22 are intersected, embedded and kinked with each other, or
the foregoing baffles 19 are intersected, embedded and kinked with
each other. With the foregoing structures, the gas is passed
through a shaped baffle 22 or a "_" shaped baffle 19 to produce
whirls, such that the gas-water washing process will be carried out
and concentrated at the whirling section to regularly guide the
water current to produce the whirling effect and improve the
solubility as shown in FIGS. 6 to 9, 11, 12, 14 and 15, and the
polygonal baffles 21, 22, 18, 19 are installed corresponding to
each other to form a baffle surface 20 with a gap between the
baffle 21 and the baffle 22; or a gap between the baffle 22 and the
baffle 22; or a gap between the baffle 18 and the baffle 19; or a
gap between the baffle 19 and the baffle 19, which can be adjusted
and controlled. In the meantime, the baffle surface 20 is arranged
transversally to form a filtering reaction layer to substitute the
fillers of the traditional washing tower. The external side of the
baffle surface 20 has a plurality of throttle baffles, and the
throttle baffle includes an oblique baffle 15 and an angle iron
baffle 16, wherein the angle of the oblique baffle is smaller than
90 degrees, and the oblique baffle 15 or angle iron baffle 16 is
soldered on the baffle surface 20 and situated between two baffles
21, or two baffles 22, or two baffles 18, or two baffles 19, so as
to evenly pass the current through a gap between the external side
(which is a windward side) of the baffle surface 20 and the oblique
baffle 15 or the angle iron baffle 16. Due to the speed difference
and the negative pressure, the gap can withhold and collect
impurities with a specific gravity greater than that of the gas,
and the impurities will be mixed slowly with the water washing
substance. Further, the internal side of the baffle 22 or baffle 19
collects a large quantity of unsettled water. When there is a
current, the assembly of whirling baffles forms a diversion
structure, and water falls from the top into the diversion
structure, such that the water level is higher than the water level
outside the whirling diversion structure. With the gas-liquid
dissolving effect caused by the water turbulence formed by the high
and low water levels and the air turbulence formed at the diversion
gap, the diversion has a Venturi washing effect to provide a high
solubility. The baffle 231 can stabilize the whirls, and the
internal side of the baffle 22 or the baffle 19 can gather a large
quantity of turbulent water. When the air and water flow back, the
plurality of holes 23 disposed on the baffle 22 or the baffle 19
including the holes on the baffle and the soldering surface of the
baffle are provided for maintaining the drainage of a connecting
duct 232. The overflow baffle 01 has an edge higher than that of a
normal baffle, so that air and water can pass through the gap of
the baffle surface 20, and the hole 23 is provided for improving
the stability for discharging water and preventing possible clogs.
The same applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these
baffles will not be described here.
[0078] In the present invention, each shaped baffle uses the side
having the air inlet 11 as the windward side and the side having
the air outlet 12 as the wind extracting side. Since the side
having an opening of each shaped baffle is the external side of the
baffle surface set on the windward side, the whirls produced by the
gas form an irregular flow, and thus the opening of each shaped
baffle on the external side of the baffle surface should be set on
the wind extracting side to prevent the occurrence of turbulences.
In the meantime, the baffles with their openings facing towards a
wind extracting side are intersected, embedded, kinked and coupled
with each other to form a structure of baffles with their opening
facing a windward side, and the tangential acceleration is used to
produce whirls by the current in the baffles with their openings
facing towards the windward side. Therefore, the baffle assembly
structure of the present invention based on the foregoing principle
forms a multi-layer baffle assembly structure, and the number of
layers of the baffle assembly structure is not limited, and any
structure having the foregoing characteristics and capable of
producing whirls is intended to be covered in the scope of the
baffle assembly structure of the present invention.
[0079] In FIGS. 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 13 and 14, a diversion panel in the
washing tower 10 serves as a diversion for the gas and forces the
gas entering from the air inlet through the diversion panel 14 to
be held at the baffles 15, 16, the baffle surface 20, the baffles
22, 19 for the gas-liquid dissolution, and impurities with a larger
density will be held up at the gap between the baffle 22 and 19, or
directly fallen into the water washing tank 13, and finally the
clean air filtered by the gas-liquid solution is discharged from
the air outlet. The same applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and
thus these baffles will not be described here.
[0080] In FIGS. 4 to 12 and 15, if the air is introduced from the
air inlet 11 and blocked by the following diversion panel, and then
entered into a water washing tank 13, a first-wave contact will be
produced to collect dusts, chemical particles or matters and other
larger particles in the dust into the water washing tank 13. In
FIG. 4, if the current passes through the baffle 20, the current
will produce a second wave of small whirls, since the angle is
greater than 90 degrees. If the current reaches the position of the
baffle 22 or the baffle 19, the turbulent water will be blocked to
assist the production of more gas-liquid dissolutions, such that
the gas will be held and remained in the water. The same applies to
the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these baffles will not be
described here.
[0081] In FIGS. 2 to 5, 10 and 13, the present invention has a
diversion panel 14 disposed at the top of the washing tower 10 and
corresponding to the position above or below each transversal
baffle surface, such that the gas entering into the washing tower
10 can produce a tangential acceleration, and the bottom of the
present invention includes a water washing tank 13, a water pump 30
for pumping water in the water washing tank 13 for spraying and
sprinkling water for the air and water dissolution, and the blower
40 draws gas upward or draws gas upward from the side, and the
principle of exchanging cold and hot air is used to hold up the gas
dissolved in the water, and the dragging force of the whirls is
used to dissolve the gas, so as to provide more water washing
functions. The same applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus
these baffles will not be described here.
[0082] The foregoing transversally arranged baffle surface
comprises a plurality of same or different baffle surfaces
parallelly stacked with each other, or parallelly and transversally
stacked with an interval apart from each other, so that the fluid
dissolution effect will be more significant. This applies to the
baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these baffles will not be
described here.
[0083] Further, the baffle assembly structure of the present
invention can be applied to the traditional washing tower having
fillers, wherein the combinations, shapes and functions of the
baffle assembly structure of the present invention are the same as
described above, and thus will not be described further here. The
whole layer of the baffle assembly structure is installed
transversally to substitute the traditional filler (such as a
Raschig ring layer). The gas and water current are passed in a
direction perpendicular to such layer of baffle surface to produce
whirls in the baffle assembly structure, so that the gas or current
performs a whirling washing, which makes the washing tower of the
baffle assembly structure to become a heat-resisting whirling
washing tower for water washing or chemical washing.
[0084] In FIGS. 16 to 20 and 21 to 24, the present invention
provides a baffle assembly structure applied to a burning tower for
producing flame whirls, wherein the baffle assembly structure is a
structure installed in a washing tower, and its functions are the
same as those described above, and the baffle assembly structure
used in the washing tower also can be applied in the burning tower,
and vice versa.
[0085] An air inlet 11 is disposed on a side of a sealed burning
tower 9 and an air outlet 12 is disposed on another side of the
burning tower 9. The burning tower 9 includes a control valve and a
diversion panel 14 disposed in a region proximate to the air inlet
11 for adjusting the flow and producing a linear tangential
acceleration to the gas entering the burning tower 9 respectively.
Further, the bottom of the burning tower includes a blower 40, and
a plurality of intersected and arranged baffles are disposed at
appropriate central positions of the burning tower 9 to form the
transversal baffle surfaces 20 (refer to FIGS. 16 to 20). Referring
to FIGS. 6 to 9, 11, 12, 14 and 15 for the baffle surface 20, the
baffle comprises a plurality of waterwall tubes or waterwall panels
that serve as a partition for the burning tower, and two
right-angled angles of a "" shaped baffle 21 are inverted to form a
shaped baffle 22, such that each angle of the shaped baffle 22 is
greater than 90 degrees; or two tangents of two circles are
intersected to form a shaped baffle 22; or a "_" shaped baffle 19.
To avoid mutual interferences of the currents when the gas is
guided and entered into the baffles, a shaped baffle 21 or a "/_\"
shaped baffle 18 with their openings facing towards the wind
extracting side, and a shaped baffle 22 or a "_" shaped baffle 19
with their openings facing towards the windward side are
intersected and kinked with each other; or the baffles 22 are
intersected and kinked with each other and the baffles 19 are
intersected and kinked with each other, such that the gas passing
through the shaped baffle 22 or the "_" shaped baffle 19 will
produce whirls, and the gas burning position is concentrated at the
whirling section, so as to regularly guide the burning current to
produce a whirling effect. In FIGS. 6 to 9, 11, 12, 14 and 15, the
polygonal baffles 21, 22 or baffles 18, 19 are connected to define
a gap between baffle surfaces 20, a baffle 21 and a baffle 22, a
baffle 18 and a baffle 19, a baffle 22 and a baffle 22, or a baffle
19 and a baffle 19 for the adjustment and control. In the meantime,
the transversal connected baffle surface becomes a whirling
reaction layer which substitutes the traditional combustion chamber
of the burning tower, and the windward side of the baffle surface
20 includes a plurality of ignitions 17 disposed thereon, and the
position of the ignition 17 introduces a gas fuel, a liquid fuel or
a solid fuel, so that the current can be passed evenly through the
gap on the windward side of the baffle surface between a baffle 21
and a baffle 21, a baffle 18 and a baffle 18, a baffle 22 and a
baffle 22, or a baffle 19 and a baffle 19. Due to the negative
pressure produced by the speed difference, the gap can hold and
collect the current, so that the current can be mixed quickly into
the combustion, and further collects the remainders of the
combustion for the whirl combustion at the baffle assembly
structure comprised of a combination of whirling baffles. Many
whirls are produced to increase the holdup time of the current for
providing a complete combustion. In addition, the internal side of
the baffle surface 22 or the baffle surface 19 collects a large
quantity of turbulent burning waves. If the burning current is
situated in the baffle surface 22, 29, the whirl diversion
structure comprised of a combination of baffles will conduct
downward combustions, and its burning position is higher than the
burning position of the whirl diversion structure. Due to the
different burning positions, combustion and dissolution effects are
produced by the current turbulence and the air turbulence occurred
at the diversion gap, and such diversion provides a burning effect
to give rise to a high combustion efficiency, and the internal side
of the baffle 22 or the baffle 19 give rise to a large quantity of
unsettled combustions. If the air for the combustion flows
backward, the holdup time will be increased. The gap situated in a
plurality of baffles 22 or baffles 19 comprised of a plurality of
waterwalls (or waterwall panels) 24 allows the flame to go through
the gap in the baffle surface 20, and the gap can be used for
enhancing the stability of discharging air and preventing any clog.
This applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these baffles
will not be described here.
[0086] Referring to FIG. 20 for a preferred embodiment of the
present invention, this embodiment comprises a vertical boiler 9
having several baffle surfaces 20 in different shapes and several
levels stacked and arranged as described above. A baffle space 27
is defined by the baffle surface comprised of a plurality of
waterwalls or waterwall panels 24 for accommodating the flames from
the igniters 17 and fixing the igniters 17 at the entrance of the
baffle space 27 of the boiler, and an inlet wind zone or a pressure
ventilation blower 41 is preferably disposed on an inlet duct 11
and connected to the boiler 9. The igniters 17 are provided for
combustions, so that fuels can enter into the baffle space 27 of
the boiler 9. The foregoing boiler 9 is a new design comprising a
plurality of waterwalls (or waterwall panels) 24 disposed thereon,
and the exhaustion of a combustion is discharged upward along the
baffle space 27 in a whirling manner and downward to an angle of
180 degrees, and then moved to a boiler tube comprising a series of
baffle spaces 27, and the hot pressure of the whirls and the
principle of exchanging cold and hot air are applied to the
plurality of waterwalls (or waterwall panels) 24. At this stage, a
heat exchange is conducted at the waterwalls (baffle space 27) to
instantly cool the discharged burning air passing through the tubes
of the boiler. These tubes are radially connected to the top and
bottom of each steam drum. The discharged burning gas will pass
through an exhaustion passage 12 and a chimney and leaves this
unit. The blower 41 is forced to supply air to facilitate the
airflow for the combustion and provide a static pressure to
overcome the resistance caused by the exhausts of the boiler and
pass the burning gas through the chimney to the outside. The number
and the diameter of the waterwall panels (or waterwalls) 24 as well
as the shape, arrangement, separation and material of the baffles
are selected according to the fluid flow and heat transfer of the
industrial standard to achieve the required pressure drop of the
water/steam and the required heat absorption from the chimney
passage, so as to minimize the quantity of NOx produced during the
burning process. This applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and
thus these baffles will not be described here.
[0087] A plurality of waterwalls (or waterwall panels) 24
constitute an assembly with baffles inside and form a baffle
surface 20, for passing the air separately to a previous layer or a
next layer and connecting the air to the pressure ventilation
blower 41 by means of the turbulent air through the gap, so as to
enter the air into the baffle space 27 of the boiler. The heat
discharge rate is restricted to minimize the quantity of NOx
produced. In the meantime, combustions are conducted at an empty
layer (or a secondary combustion chamber) in the baffle space 27 of
the boiler. Thus, carbon monoxide can be combusted completely. This
applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these baffles will
not be described here.
[0088] In FIGS. 16, 17, 15 and 11, air is introduced from the air
inlet 11 connected to the air blower 41 below and blocked by the
diversion panel, and then entered into the primary combustion
chamber 28 along the diversion panel. As a result, a first wave
burning is produced, and the heavier particles are gathered and
held at the bottom of the tank, such that it can burn the gas fuel
25 more appropriately. In FIGS. 15 and 11, an angular change (of a
corner rounding angle) greater than 90 degrees is produced when the
current flows through the baffle surfaces 20, so that the current
produces a plurality of second-wave small whirls by the combustion.
If the flame reaches the position of a baffle 22 or a baffle 19,
the turbulent flame is blocked to assist the combustion of the
burning gas, so as to completely combust all hard-to-burn gas
remained therein. This applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and
thus these baffles will not be described here.
[0089] In FIGS. 18, 19, 6 and 14, the diversion panel in the
burning tower 9 serves as a diversion for the air and forces the
gas to enter from the air inlet above through the baffle surface 20
and perform a gas-fire melting at the baffle 22 and the baffle 19,
so as to burn the liquid fuel or the solid fuel 26 in the primary
combustion chamber 28, wherein the flame rises, and the wind at a
high speed is blown downward to oppose each other and increase the
holdup time. The rising warm current and the high-speed wind form
opposite currents to create a strong convection to rapidly expand
the burning surface, so as to produce a flame whirl in the baffle
space 27 comprised of a plurality of baffle surfaces and define a
secondary combustion chamber 29. The larger flame will remain at
the gap of the baffle 22 or the baffle 19, and finally the gas is
combusted completely, and the air is discharged from the air outlet
12 connected to the air-extracting blower 42. More specifically, a
multi-layer baffle assembly structures are connected to form a
whole piece of combustion chamber and produce layers of flames. A
gas burning state or other burning state such as a wind blowing
state or an upward burning at one or more openings of the top of a
chimney effect tube 47 assists the combustion. In the gas burning
state or the solid burning state, the liquid or solid at the second
layer or the third layer expands the gap to form a primary
combustion chamber, and then the combustion continues to a fourth
layer and a fifth layer, or a fifth layer and a sixth layer under a
negative pressure attraction state to define a secondary combustion
chamber. The baffle has an igniter disposed on its side, and the
multi-whirling burning tower uses the diversion panel and baffle to
produce a speed difference for the gas, and thus a negative
pressure effect is produced to improve the combustion efficiency or
enhance the combustion efficiency by the whirls and hold the whirls
at the burning baffle for a complete combustion. The flame whirls
at the baffles strengthen the whirls to provide a complete
combustion, and the whirls will be held for a longer time, so as to
enhance the complete combustion, reaction and energy efficiency.
This applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and thus these baffles
will not be described here.
[0090] In FIGS. 16, and 17 to 19, the present invention has a
diversion panel 14 disposed above or below each transversal baffle
surface at the top of the burning tower to provide more burning
functions, so that the gas entering into the burning tower can
produce a tangential acceleration, and the present invention also
includes a bottom tank disposed at the bottom for holding heavier
particles in the bottom tank, and the fuel pump is used to pump a
fuel to the baffle surface 20 and the fuel is reacted with the air
for the combustion. The blower 40 draws gas upward or from the
lateral side, such that the principle of using the hot pressure to
create a heat exchange can be applied to the plurality of
waterwalls (or waterwall panels) 24, and the cold and hot air are
convected to allow the gas remained therein to burn more easily.
The dragging force produced by the whirl can be used for burning
the gas evenly. This applies to the baffles 43, 44, 45, 46, and
thus these baffles will not be described here.
[0091] The transversally arranged baffle assembly structure
comprises a plurality of baffle surfaces parallelly and
transversally stacked with each other to form a plurality of baffle
spaces 27 in the baffle surfaces to provide a better gas-liquid
combustion effect. In the meantime, the baffle assembly structure
as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24 is a baffle structure with the
combination of a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle or the
combination of a "_" shaped baffle and a shaped baffle intersected
and coupled with each other, and the assembly forms a stairway-like
baffle assembly structure, wherein the functions and applications
of this baffle assembly structure are the same as those of other
baffle assembly structure for producing flame whirls or washing
whirls by the baffle assembly structures in various different
shapes.
[0092] In the baffle assembly structure of the present invention,
the combination of a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle, the
combination of a shaped baffle and a shaped baffle, the combination
of a "_" shaped baffle and a "_" shaped baffle, the combination of
a "_" shaped baffle and a "/_\" shaped baffle, the combination of
shaped baffles, the combination of shaped baffles or the
combination of " _ " shaped baffles is intersected and kinked to
produce a whole piece of baffle surface disposed vertically or
obliquely and provide the functions of a multi-whirling dust
collector and an oil-gas separator. From the variation of the
present invention, the baffle assembly structure can be disposed
flatly to produce whirlpools or liquid flows for the design of a
washing tower or a burning tower. All of the above are intended to
be covered within the scope of the present invention.
[0093] In summation of the description above, the present invention
provides a baffle assembly structure, wherein the gas can be sent
easily into the baffle at a windward side to produce regular
whirls, and the gas drops can be concentrated at the bottom of the
shaped baffle or the "_". More specifically, the present invention
adopts the shaped baffles or the "_" shaped baffles intersected
embedded and arranged with each other to define a layer of baffle
assembly structure, and then the baffles are stacked layer by
layer. Similarly, the opening of the shaped baffle or the "_"
shaped baffle is set corresponding to each other, or the opening of
the shaped baffle or the "_" shaped baffle is set corresponding to
the opening of the shaped baffle or the "_" shaped baffle of the
opposite layer of baffle assembly structure to define a whole piece
of baffle space 27, such that the gas passing through the shaped
baffle or the "_" shaped baffle can produce whirls, and concentrate
the gas washing/combustion at the whirling section. Since each
angle of the baffle is a corner rounding angle, therefore the
whirls can be produced very easily and blows the air smoothly, such
that the opening of the shaped baffle or the "_" shaped baffle is
set at a windward side for producing whirls with a regular state.
After a current is passed through such layer of baffle, turbulence
will not occur at the next layer of baffle in the baffle assembly
structure, such that each gas washing/combustion can be
concentrated in the baffle assembly structure. The principle of the
baffle assembly structure can be applied to another form of
assembly of the present invention, and the baffles are intersected
with each other and their opening is disposed at the windward side
to produce whirls. More particularly in the burning tower, the tiny
aggregates of the combustion, the linearly introduced whirls and
the heat exchange can enhance the whirls, and the wind can expand
the combustion, such that the sparks and embers may fly in
different directions to improve the flame. With layers of burnings,
a burning tower with high combustion efficiency is provided.
[0094] The baffle assembly structure of the present invention
installed in a washing tower can overcome the shortcomings of a
traditional washing program by increasing the gas-liquid solubility
and achieving the effects of a low resistance and high solubility.
Further, the baffle assembly structure of the present invention
installed in a burning tower can overcome the shortcomings of a
traditional burner by increasing the gas-liquid flame combustion
efficiency to achieve the effects of low holdup time and high
combustion efficiency.
[0095] While the invention has been described by way of examples
and in terms of preferred embodiments, it is to be understood that
the invention is not limited thereto. To the contrary, it is
intended to cover various modifications and similar arrangements
and procedures, and the scope of the appended claims therefore
should be accorded the broadest interpretation so as to encompass
all such modifications and similar arrangements and procedures.
