Abstract

A boiler has a radiation heat transfer section with opposite sides and boiler water tubes therein for passing boiler water to be heated by combustion gas in the radiation heat transfer section. The boiler water moves substantially in a selected direction in the radiation heat transfer section. A plurality of regenerative-heating-type burner systems are connected to the radiation heat transfer section. Each burner system has a regenerative bed and a burner. The burner systems are in pairs on the opposite sides of the radiation heat transfer section. A first mechanism supplies combustion air through the bed and to the burner of each burner system while a second mechanism supplies fuel to each burner system to form a flame that produces the combustion gas. A third mechanism causes the flow of air and gas to be changed over at intervals. Each pair of burner systems is controlled separately for defining a plurality of temperature zones in the radiation heat transfer section.
