b. Burner Air register Adjustment


Flame shape can be optimized by the adjustment of outer or inner air register
vanes, tertiary air damper.
By adjusting the position of outer and inner vanes, the IHI Dual Flow (DF) air
register controls the swirl force of combustion air exactly. The air register is
modulated to close, the combustion air swirls more strong. This results the
flame in getting wide and short. In the contrary, the air register is opened, the
less swirl creates small and long flame. This allows the burner to be adaptive to
a variety of fuels with different ignition properties, and to different burner settings.

(a) Initial setting


Initial setting shall be carried out as follows.
Air Register Outer Vane
Adjustment of air register is by manual or remote operation.

Air Register Inner Vane


The inner vane is driven manually and once settled in a suitable position to
give good flame appearance at boiler full load condition remains in that
position

Tertiary Air Damper


The initial setting of the tertiary air damper shall be fully opened, and shall
be adjusted as necessary to prevent pulverized coal or fly ash from
accumulation in.
If the curl-backing flame into coal burner inner sleeve is observed, this
condition can be corrected by the open of this tertiary air damper gradually.
In this time, combustion condition shall be checked from the inspection hole.

(b) Flame shape adjustment


All flame shape adjustment will be carried out during boiler operation if
required to prevent the following combustion condition.
Curl back Flame
If a large flame curl back condition is left for long period of time, damage
would occur, especially, around burner tip, as a result of extreme high
temperature

Flame impingement to the burner throat and/or furnace wall


This condition may be produce damage to the throat area and is apt to
accelerate slagging or coking on the furnace wall around burner.

Flame ignition point movement


Stable ignition point of the flame is desired for the safe operation of the
burner.
If ignition point moves away from the burner throat, the greater the possibility
of tripping the burners will be made.
The use of ignitor oil burner support may be required until proper flame
shape is re-established when long moving of ignition point is made.
