The furnace with liquid-cooled grate elements has an inflow and a return to these grate elements, the inflow and the return being connected to a condensation device open to the atmosphere. The inflow has arranged in it a U-shaped cooling-liquid seal, one leg of which has a liquid head which corresponds to an arbitrarily selected maximum pressure. The other, shorter leg is connected to a central distributor for the individual grate elements of the grate stages. The distance between the lowest point of the coolant flow of the lowest grate element and the upper point of the shorter leg corresponds to a selectable safety height amount which generates a pressure which counteracts the spread of steam bubbles occurring in the grate elements, so as to prevent a reversal in the direction of flow of the coolant.
A furnace with fluidically connected liquid-cooled grate elements of grate stages wherein each element has an inflow and a return for a coolant, comprising:
Furnace installation with liquid-cooled grate elements, each having a feed and a return, comprising a U-shaped coolant arrangement whose longer side is connected with a condensation arrangement which is open to the atmosphere and has a liquid level generating an arbitrarily selected maximum pressure in the system, and whose shorter leg is connected with a central distributor to which the individual grate elements are connected via lines and which serves as a feed for the grate elements, and a central collector to which the grate elements are connected via lines and which serves as a return for the grate elements, and a return line which connects the central collector to the condensation arrangement.
