DUAL FUEL SELECTABLE APPARATUS
20190137097 · 2019-05-09 ·

A heater assembly can be used with a gas appliance. The gas appliance can be a dual fuel appliance for use with one of a first fuel type or a second fuel type different than the first. The heater assembly can include a pressure sensor and a plurality of valves operable by a control module dependent upon a detected fuel pressure. The valves may be solenoid valves that can reduce the available fuel delivery paths to limit fuel delivery to a burner when a higher pressure, such as detection of LP gas, is detected.

Method for controlling the BTU content of a flare gas

A method for controlling the Btu content of a flare gas to combusted in a flare stack comprising a flare tip is provided. The method includes, introducing a first gas stream including nitrogen to be flared, the first gas stream having an initial Btu content, providing a supplemental fuel gas stream, and combining the first gas stream with the supplemental fuel gas stream, thereby obtaining a flare gas stream having a final Btu content measured at the flare tip.

Adjustable fuel injector for flame dynamics control

An adjustable injector system for adjusting a radial distribution of a mixed fuel includes an adjustable injector configured to receive first and second non-carbon fuels and configured to adjust the radial distribution of the mixed fuel with a movable part, wherein the mixed fuel is obtained from mixing the first non-carbon fuel with the second non-carbon fuel; a sensor configured to determine an instability of a flame generated by the mixed fuel; and a controller electrically connected to the adjustable injector and the sensor, and configured to change a configuration of the adjustable injector, based on an input signal from the sensor, to control the radial distribution of the mixed fuel.
