Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of comprehensive energy utilization, and relates to a deaerator combined cold recirculation system and method for improving the steam supply capacity of a boiler. [Background technology]

[0002] External industrial steam supply can effectively reduce the energy consumption index of thermal power generating units, and is also one of the important profit directions of generating units. On the basis of meeting the steam parameter requirements of industrial steam supply users, using steam of lower quality as much as possible is beneficial to the economic operation of the unit. Therefore, increasing the industrial steam supply volume and reducing the steam supply parameters as much as possible are the directions to improve the economic efficiency of industrial steam supply of the unit.

[0003] At present, most industrial steam supply units use cold reheat steam as the steam source. However, if too much cold reheat steam is extracted, the boiler reheater is prone to overheating. Therefore, the extraction volume of cold reheat steam in many units is greatly restricted and cannot fully meet the needs of users. They can only use reheat steam with higher steam quality, which leads to poor heating economy of the unit. In addition, the temperature of cold reheat steam is generally several tens of degrees higher than the user's demand, and a large amount of cooling water needs to be sprayed for cooling. If the temperature of cold reheat steam is reasonably reduced through technical means, and the excess heat is transferred to the deaerator for full utilization, the risk of overheating of the boiler reheater will be effectively reduced, and the steam supply of the unit cold reheat can be greatly increased. [Summary of the invention]

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and to provide a deaerator combined cold recirculation system and method for improving the boiler steam supply capacity. The present invention uses the condensate at the deaerator inlet as a cooling source to cool part of the cold resteam, thereby reducing the unit's cold resteam temperature, reducing the risk of boiler reheater overheating, and improving the cold resteam industrial steam supply capacity.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A deaerator combined cold recirculation system for improving the steam supply capacity of a boiler comprises a high-pressure cylinder, a steam pipeline and a steam return pipeline;

[0007] The cold re-steam of the high-pressure cylinder enters the steam pipe, and a closed circulating water system is arranged between the steam pipe and the steam return pipe; a low-pressure heater and a deaerator are arranged on the steam return pipe, and part of the heat of the cold re-steam is exchanged with the closed circulating water system, and the closed circulating water system simultaneously exchanges heat with the condensed water in the steam return pipe, transferring part of the heat of the cold re-steam to the deaerator.

[0008] The present invention is further improved in that:

[0009] The closed circulating water system includes a heat recovery heat exchanger and a water-water heat exchanger. The circulating water forms a closed loop between the heat recovery heat exchanger and the water-water heat exchanger. A circulating pump is provided between the heat recovery heat exchanger and the water-water heat exchanger to provide power for the circulating water system.

[0010] The outlet of the low-pressure heater is connected to the cold side inlet of the water-water heat exchanger, and the cold side outlet of the water-water heat exchanger is connected to the deaerator. The condensed water of the low-pressure heater is heated by the water-water heat exchanger and then transported to the deaerator.

[0011] The water-water heat exchanger is also connected in parallel with a bypass pipeline, and a bypass isolation valve is arranged on the bypass pipeline.

[0012] The steam pipeline is provided with a flow regulating orifice plate, and a heat recovery heat exchanger is connected in parallel to the flow regulating orifice plate. The cold re-steam enters the heat recovery heat exchanger through the first steam pipeline isolation valve for heat exchange. The cold re-steam after heat exchange passes through the second steam pipeline isolation valve and merges with the cold re-steam passing through the flow regulating orifice plate. A part of the merged cold re-steam is output as industrial steam supply, and the other part is output to the boiler reheater.

[0013] The inlet of the water-water heat exchanger is provided with a water inlet isolation valve, the outlet of the water-water heat exchanger is provided with a water outlet isolation valve, and the bypass pipeline is connected in parallel to both ends of the water inlet isolation valve, the water-water heat exchanger and the water outlet isolation valve.

[0014] A deaerator combined cold recirculation method for improving boiler steam supply capacity comprises the following steps:

[0015] During normal operation, open the steam pipeline isolation valve, steam pipeline isolation valve, water inlet isolation valve and water outlet isolation valve, close the bypass isolation valve, and start the circulating pump; a part of the cold re-steam of the high-pressure cylinder of the steam turbine passes through the steam pipeline isolation valve, the heat recovery heat exchanger and the steam pipeline isolation valve, and then merges with the other part of the cold re-steam that passes through the flow regulating orifice plate and has not been heat exchanged; the closed circulating water passes through the heat recovery heat exchanger, the circulating pump and the water-water heat exchanger to complete the heat exchange process; the outlet condensate of the low-pressure heater passes through the water inlet isolation valve, the water-water heat exchanger and the water outlet isolation valve, and is heated by the closed circulating water, and the heated condensate enters the deaerator;

[0016] When the unit does not use cold steam to supply steam to the outside, close the steam pipe isolation valve and the steam pipe isolation valve, open the bypass isolation valve, the heat recovery heat exchanger is in a shutdown state, and the circulation pump is turned off.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The present invention transfers part of the heat of the cold re-steam to the deaerator inlet water through a heat recovery heat exchanger. On the one hand, it can reduce the temperature of the cold re-steam by more than 25°C and increase the cold re-steam industrial steam supply by more than 150%. The unit will be more economical due to the improvement of external steam supply capacity and the reduction of the use of high-quality steam, and the use of industrial steam supply cooling water can also be reduced.

[0019] The present invention sets up a heat recovery heat exchanger and a water-water heat exchanger double circuit, and utilizes part of the cold re-steam to add the condensate at the deaerator inlet to achieve energy joint transfer and utilization, thereby reducing the risk of boiler reheater overheating, increasing the maximum heating capacity of cold re-steam, reducing the amount of cold re-steam cooling water used, and improving the unit operation economy. The present invention can be applied to secondary reheating power generation units for external industrial steam supply. Through heat exchange, the heat of cold re-steam is partially utilized in the condensate at the deaerator inlet, reducing the temperature of cold re-steam and external industrial steam supply, reducing the risk of reheater overheating when the boiler cold re-steam supplies steam to the outside, improving the maximum capacity of cold re-steam to supply steam to the outside industry, reducing the use of high-quality steam such as reheat steam, reducing the use of industrial steam cooling water, improving the unit operation economy, and reducing coal consumption for power generation.
