HORIZONTAL ROTARY CUP OIL BURNER [6 records]

Record 1 2016-02-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
  • Shipbuilding
CONT

The heart of [the horizontal rotary burner] and its characteristic part is the atomizing cup(...), which by its spinning action finely divides the oil.

CONT

The purpose of the atomizing cup, in conjunction with the air blast from the nozzle, is to atomize the fuel oil.

CONT

La transformation du mazout en fines particules peut s'opérer (...) en faisant tomber le mazout sur une coupelle qui tourne à grande vitesse. La pulvérisation est obtenue grâce à la force centrifuge. Ce sont les brûleurs à coupelle rotative.

Subject field(s)

DEF

A burner in which atomization is accomplished by feeding oil to a rapidly rotating cup or to spinning plates. Centrifugal force throws off the oil in droplets at the periphery of the cup or plates.... Centrifugal Atomizing Oil Burner. There are 2 basic types :Horizontal Rotary Oil Burner-oil is pumped through a horizontal, hollow, drive shaft to a spinning cup. The axis of the cup is also horizontal. Vertical Rotary Oil Burner-the oil tank is mounted higher than the burner, and oil flows downward by gravity to the spinning plates.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fumisterie et brûleurs
CONT

Brûleur à coupelle rotative : l'huile injectée à basse pression dans une coupelle tournant très rapidement est éjectée en une nappe hélicoïdale qui se pulvérise au contact de l'air. Brûleur à réglage délicat et assez bruyant.

OBS

Les brûleurs à coupelle rotative [...] sont employés très rarement en chauffage central.

CONT

Domestic burners usually are confined to the use of oils ranging in grade from No. 1 to No. 4 and employ either one of two methods to prepare the fuel oil for combustion. These are atomization(spraying) and vaporisation(heating). Atomization or spraying is divided into three types, namely, high-pressure atomization, low-pressure atomization, and centrifugal atomization.... The third way in which oil is atomized is by use of centrifugal force. The oil is fed to a rapidly rotating cup(3, 450 rpm or faster). It then spreads throughout this cup in a fine film and flies of the outer edge at a high rate of speed in a very finely divided state. Burners that make use of such centrifugal force are of two types from the standpoint of their design : the horizontal rotary type and the vertical rotary type. High-speed motors are required by burners that use this type of atomization exclusively. With centrifugal atomizing burners there is no contact between oil and air until both have left the burner and entered the combustion chamber.

CONT

Brûleurs à pulvérisation mécanique par force centrifuge (...) comportent une coupelle soumise à un mouvement de rotation rapide, au centre de laquelle le combustible liquide est amené. la force centrifuge projette le liquide vers les bords de la coupelle, où il est pulvérisé.

CONT

Pulvérisation par coupelle rotative. Ce système (...) consiste à amener le combustible au sommet d'un cône qui tourne à grande vitesse (5 000 tr/min) Par force centrifuge, la paroi se garnit d'un film qui s'échappe par toute la circonférence de base du cône. La pulvérisation résulte de la cassure du film et les gouttelettes sont entraînées par l'air primaire provenant d'un ventilateur solidaire de la coupelle.

Horizontal Rotary Cup Oil Burners. This type of burner atomizes the oil by spinning it in a thin film from a horizontal rotating cup and injecting high velocity primary air into the oil film through an annular nozzle which surrounds the rim of the atomizing cup. This atomizing cup and frequently the primary air fan are mounted on a horizontal main shaft which is motor driven and rotates at constant speed, 58 to 100 r/s depending on the size and make of burner. The oil is fed to the atomizing cup at controlled rates from an oil pump which is usually driven from the main shaft through a worm and gear.

Le modèle de brûleur représenté par la figure 170 est du type à coupelle rotative à axe vertical (...) cette conception du pulvérisateur conduit à l'obtention d'une forme de flamme totalement différente de celle que l'on réalise avec une coupelle à axe horizontal (...).

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

Horizontal Rotary-Atomizing Burner.... The burner consists of an atomizing or spinner cup, and air blower, and a region in which the air and oil are mixed. The cup, which is mounted on a horizontal motor shaft, is revolved at a speed of 3, 450 revolutions per minute or higher. The oil fed to the cup is atomized by whirling the oil off the edge of the cup. As the oil droplets leave the edge, they are caught up in a horizontal air current from the blower. The resulting fuel-air mixture is ignited by a gas pilot near the cup, and the flame is projected horizontally.

CONT

horizontal rotary burner.... This burner receives its name from the fact that it enters the boiler on a horizontal plane... and prepares the oil for combustion by centrifugal force, spinning it off a [rotating] cup....

French

Domaine(s)
  • Fumisterie et brûleurs
CONT

Les brûleurs rotatifs sont du type vertical ou du type horizontal. La vaporisation est assurée par la force centrifuge. L'huile arrive dans une cuvette rotatoire où elle tourbillonne très rapidement jusqu'à ce qu'elle en soit projetée. Mélangée à l'air et au contact des électrodes l'huile s'allume.

OBS

(...) coupelle à axe horizontal (...).

OBS

(...) il existe de nombreuses marques de brûleurs à coupelle rotative (...) compte tenu des multiples variantes concernant: 1. La machine motrice (...) 2. L'alimentation de la coupelle (...). 3. La disposition de l'arbre principal qui peut être: - soit horizontal (...) - soit vertical (...).

Subject field(s)
  • Burners and Steamfitting
CONT

The rotary oil burner is a horizontal atomizing unit consisting of only one moving part, a hollow steel shaft, on which are mounted the atomizing cup, the fan, and the motor rotor. These parts comprise the shaft assembly, which rotates on two ball bearings. The fuel oil is introduced by means of a stationary fuel tube extending through the centre of the hollow main shaft of the burner into the atomizing cup.... In the Ray rotary oil burner, the oil is introduced into the tail end of the fuel tube, passes through the tube, and flows out of the fuel tip into the back portion of the atomizing cup. The fuel tube and tip are stationary and the oil passages are such size that high pressure is not required to obtain the rated oil capacity.
