Problems solved by technology

[0004] (1) The temperature self-control ability is poor, resulting in local overheating of the aluminum liquid, and physical and chemical phenomena such as oxidation and hydrogen evolution are prone to occur on the surface of the aluminum liquid. This phenomenon affects the quality of aluminum products on the one hand, and increases the burning loss of aluminum products on the other hand
[0005] (2) The heat exchange structure is poor, and the heat loss is serious, among which the smoke exhaust loss is as high as 35-40%, and the heat dissipation loss is as high as 10-15%, which makes the natural gas consumption larger
[0006] (3) The method of directly directing the flame into the molten aluminum is often used, which can easily lead to local overheating of the surface of the molten aluminum, and the surface of the molten aluminum is prone to physical and chemical phenomena such as oxidation and hydrogen evolution. This phenomenon affects the quality of aluminum products on the one hand, and increases the number of aluminum products on the other burning loss
[0007] (4) The traditional aluminum melting furnace is a typical periodic high-temperature smelting equipment. From the entry of aluminum ingots to the end of smelting, it can be roughly subdivided into charging period, early melting period, mid-melting period, late melting period, heating period, refining and holding period , this periodic work system greatly affects the smelting efficiency of the aluminum melting furnace, which is not conducive to the expansion of the production scale of the enterprise

Embodiment 1

[0039] The regenerative aluminum melting furnace of this embodiment, refer to figure 1 , including a furnace body 7, the furnace body is provided with a feed inlet, the furnace body is provided with a burner 2, an aluminum ingot melting platform 26 and a molten pool 28, and the bottom of the molten pool is provided with a discharge port 12, and the aluminum ingot 23 passes through The feed inlet is placed on the aluminum ingot melting platform, and the burner generates hot flue gas to heat and melt the aluminum ingot. The liquid aluminum flows into the molten pool and is discharged through the discharge port; There are also heat exchange pipes (30, 35) inside. The function of the heat exchange pipes is to introduce the waste heat / hot flue gas into the molten pool to exchange heat with the aluminum liquid, and then output it to the outside of the furnace, and further recover it to the heat storage body. The inlet of the heat pipe is set above the molten pool, and extends into t...

Embodiment 2

[0065] In order to increase the utilization rate of waste heat, heat pipes can be directly arranged on the horizontal heat exchange pipes for sufficient heat exchange between hot flue gas and molten aluminum; the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the horizontal heat exchange pipes can also be appropriately increased to form heat pipe flue gas flow channels; A heat pipe can be arranged on the heat pipe flue flow channel.

[0066] For details, see Figure 5 , the horizontal heat exchange tube 35 is changed to the heat pipe flue gas flow channel 39, and the heat pipe flue gas flow channel 39 is distributed horizontally, and its structure is not limited to the horizontal thin channel (the channel height is determined by the actual project, such as 0.1m), equidistant or unequal Indirect circular ducts, equally spaced or unequal indirect square ducts. The heat pipe one 38 is vertically inserted into the heat pipe flue flow channel 39. The hot side of the heat pipe is in contact ...

Embodiment 3

[0068] In order to reduce the corrosion of the aluminum liquid by the flue gas and reduce the burning loss of the aluminum liquid. A heat exchange plate 40 is arranged in the furnace body and close to the upper part of the molten pool. Furthermore, a solid heat exchange tube with high thermal conductivity can be arranged on the heat exchange plate.

[0069] Specific examples such as Figure 6 As shown, the heat exchange plate 40 is arranged horizontally and sealed to the wall of the molten pool. The side of the heat exchange plate 40 close to the aluminum ingot melting platform 26 has a square hole (not limited to a square), and the baffle is arranged downward along the hole. The baffle is inserted into the molten aluminum but does not prevent the horizontal flow of the molten aluminum in the molten pool. In addition, during operation, the molten aluminum is not higher than the plate platform 40 .

[0070] In a further solution, a solid heat exchange tube 41 with high thermal...

Abstract

The invention discloses a regenerative aluminum melting furnace. The regenerative aluminum melting furnace includes a furnace body, and a feed port is formed in the furnace body. The regenerative aluminum melting furnace is characterized in that the furnace body is internally provided with a burner, an aluminum ingot melting platform and a molten pool, a discharge port is formed in the bottom of the molten pool, hot flue gas generated by the combustion of the burner heats and melts aluminum ingots on the aluminum ingot melting platform, liquid aluminum flows into the molten pool, and then is discharged from the discharge port; the furnace body is further internally provided with a heat exchange pipeline, an inlet of the heat exchange pipeline is located above the molten pool, and the heatexchange pipeline extends into the molten pool from the inlet to form at least one heat exchange pipe located in the molten pool, and the at least one heat exchange pipe continues to extend out of thefurnace body for being connected with a regenerative body. The high-temperature flue gas in the aluminum melting furnace heats aluminum liquid through a heat exchanger, the utilization of flue gas waste heat is improved, and the used amount of fuel is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to aluminum processing equipment, in particular to a novel regenerative aluminum melting furnace. Background technique [0002] Aluminum melting furnace is the most commonly used equipment in the aluminum processing and casting industry.
