Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a C4F7N mixed gas recovery and filling device, belonging to the field of insulating gas recovery and filling technology. Background Technology

[0002] C4F7N perfluoroisobutyronitrile (PFOBN) has a zero ozone depletion potential, making it an environmentally friendly gaseous insulating medium. To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the number of C4F7N mixed-insulating gas electrical equipment in my country is gradually increasing. The mixing and charging of C4F7N mixed insulating gas, rapid on-site recovery, and on-site operation and maintenance have become urgent issues to be addressed. Therefore, it is necessary to research efficient mixing and charging technologies and rapid recovery technologies for mixed insulating gases. This is of great significance for meeting the actual needs of C4F7N mixed-insulating gas electrical equipment during operation, building a green power grid, and carrying out the operation and management of mixed-insulating gas electrical equipment.

[0003] Chinese invention patent application CN112516746A, entitled "C4F7N / CO2 Mixed Gas Recovery and Purification Device," discloses a method for recovering and purifying a C4F7N / CO2 mixed gas. The recovered mixed gas is purified by a purification device to remove trace amounts of water, solid particles, and decomposition products generated during discharge. Before recycling, the concentration of the mixed gas needs to be adjusted to meet the requirements for gas recycling. However, this solution does not provide a method for storing the recovered and purified mixed gas. Directly storing the mixed gas would result in an excessively large storage device, which is not conducive to the preservation of the mixed gas. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a C4F7N mixed gas recovery and filling device to solve the problem of inconvenient mixed gas storage in the current recovery and filling process.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this invention provides a C4F7N mixed gas recovery and charging device, comprising a recovery and purification unit, a refrigerated liquid storage unit, a vaporization unit, and a mixing and charging unit. The recovery and purification unit is used to recover, purify, and compress the C4F7N mixed gas; the refrigerated liquid storage unit is used to cool and store the compressed C4F7N mixed gas after recovery and purification in a liquid state; the vaporization unit is used to vaporize and heat the liquid-stored C4F7N mixed gas; and the mixing and charging unit is used to adjust the vaporized mixed gas so that the concentration of the C4F7N mixed gas reaches a set concentration standard.

[0006] This invention first recovers and purifies a C4F7N mixed gas, then stores it in a liquid state through cryogenic refrigeration and pressurization. When inflation is needed, a vaporization unit vaporizes the liquid C4F7N mixed gas, and a mixing and inflation unit adds C4F7N, CO2, or O2 to the vaporized C4F7N mixed gas to adjust the concentration, allowing the C4F7N mixed gas bag to be used with a set concentration standard. This invention uses cryogenic refrigeration and pressurization to recover the C4F7N mixed gas and store it in a liquid state in a container, effectively improving the container's filling rate. When inflation is needed, the concentration of the C4F7N mixed gas is adjusted by the mixing and inflation unit. Compared with existing methods that use pure C4F7N gas for adjustment, this reduces the gas adjustment time and increases adjustment efficiency.

[0007] Furthermore, the refrigerated liquid storage unit includes a storage tank. The inlet of the storage tank is connected to the outlet of the recovery and purification unit via a pipeline. A heat exchanger module is installed on the pipeline between the inlet of the storage tank and the outlet of the recovery and purification unit. The heat exchanger module is used to refrigerate and heat exchange the gas in the recovery and purification pipeline.

[0008] Furthermore, the heat exchanger module includes a plate heat exchanger and a refrigeration unit. The plate heat exchanger includes a first channel and a second channel. The first channel is connected in series in the pipeline between the inlet of the liquid storage tank and the outlet of the recovery and purification unit. The second channel is connected to the refrigeration unit and is used to cool the medium in the second channel.

[0009] Using a plate heat exchanger to cool the recovered mixed gas results in a better cooling effect.

[0010] Furthermore, the mixing and filling unit includes a mixing tank and a gas replenishment branch. The first inlet of the mixing tank is connected to the outlet of the vaporization unit through a pipeline and is used to store the recovered mixed gas. One end of each gas replenishment branch is connected to a single gas source of C4F7N, CO2, and O2, respectively, and the other end is used to connect to the second inlet of the mixing tank. A detector is installed at the first inlet of the mixing tank to detect the concentration of C4F7N mixed gas. The detector is connected to the controller. The controller controls the valve on the corresponding gas replenishment branch to replenish gas according to the detection data of the detector, so that the concentration of C4F7N mixed gas in the mixing tank reaches the set concentration standard.

[0011] A gas replenishment branch is connected to the inlet of the liquid storage tank. Gas is replenished by controlling the valve to adjust the concentration of the mixed gas, making the adjustment of the mixed gas concentration more convenient.

[0012] Furthermore, the mixing and charging unit also includes a mixer, which is installed on the pipeline between the gas supply branch and the second inlet of the mixing tank. The inlet is connected to the gas supply branch, and the mixer outlet is connected to the second inlet of the mixing tank. It is used to receive the single gas supplied by each gas supply branch and mix it according to the set concentration standard, and then transmit it to the mixing tank or directly to the gas chamber.

[0013] The mixed inflation unit can adjust the concentration of the recovered and purified C4F7N mixed gas to meet the inflation requirements, or it can use the new mixed gas generated by each branch to be directly mixed and used for inflation, thus improving inflation efficiency.

[0014] Furthermore, each gas replenishment branch is equipped with a pressure sensor, which is connected to the controller. When the pressure in the gas cylinder is insufficient, the sensor transmits a signal to the control module to stop the filling process and issue a gas cylinder pressure insufficient signal.

[0015] Pressure sensors can promptly reflect the gas content in gas cylinders, allowing for timely replenishment or replacement when gas levels are insufficient.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a vacuum pumping unit, which is used to evacuate the gas chamber before it is filled with gas.

[0017] Vacuuming the air chamber before inflation ensures a vacuum environment, facilitating inflation.

[0018] Furthermore, a mixed gas buffer tank is installed in the gas chamber inlet pipeline to buffer the C4F7N mixed gas.

[0019] Furthermore, the recovery and purification unit includes a pipeline for connecting to the mixed gas recovery port, and a dryer, filter and compressor are installed on the pipeline to dry, filter and compress the recovered C4F7N mixed gas.

[0020] Furthermore, a liquid level sensor is installed in the storage tank, which is connected to the controller to transmit a signal to the controller when the storage tank is full, thereby stopping the recycling process.

[0021] The liquid level sensor can promptly alert the tank to be full and stop recycling. Attached Figure Description

The controller controls the valve on the corresponding gas supply branch to supply gas according to the detection data of the detector, so that the concentration of C4F7N mixed gas in the mixing tank 39 reaches the set concentration standard. The mixing tank 39 is equipped with a sixth pressure sensor 40. The outlet pipeline of the mixing tank 39 is connected to the gas chamber. The pipeline is equipped with a fifteenth axial flow solenoid valve 64, an eleventh pressure sensor 79, a twentieth axial flow solenoid valve 78, a mixed gas buffer tank 82, a third safety valve 76, a seventh dust filter 75, and a tenth pressure sensor 74.

[0031] The mixing and charging unit also includes a mixed gas charging inlet 38, which is connected to the C4F7N mixed gas pressurizing compressor 80 in the mixing tank outlet pipeline through the sixteenth axial flow solenoid valve 65 and the second back pressure valve 81, and can directly charge the gas chamber with a standard concentration of C4F7N mixed gas.

[0033] The recovery and purification unit and the refrigerated liquid storage unit enable the liquefaction and storage of the recovered gas: The mixed gas chamber is connected via a hose to the C4F7N mixed gas recovery port 1 of the C4F7N mixed gas recovery and charging device. The first electric valve 10, the third electric valve 27, the first axial flow solenoid valve 5, the second axial flow solenoid valve 14, the sixth axial flow solenoid valve 26, the refrigeration unit 15, and the C4F7N mixed gas recovery compressor 8 are then activated to begin gas recovery. The dryer 11 adsorbs water and decomposition products from the C4F7N mixed gas in the switching gas chamber. The compressor pressurizes the gas, and simultaneously, the heat exchanger and refrigeration unit 15 cool the pressurized high-temperature gas, thus storing the C4F7N mixed gas in a liquid state in a container or cylinder. When the fourth pressure sensor 28 reaches the set pressure of the gas chamber, a signal is transmitted to the control module, stopping the recovery and issuing a recovery completion signal. When the liquid level or pressure in the storage tank reaches the set value, the compressor stops returning gas and issues a storage tank full signal.

[0034] When inflation is required, connect the gas chamber to the mixing inflation port 73 via a hose.

Open the eighth axial flow solenoid valve 41, the sixteenth axial flow solenoid valve 65, and the twentieth axial flow solenoid valve 78. Start the C4F7N mixed gas pressurization compressor 80 to begin mixing and inflation. When the tenth pressure sensor 74 at the mixing inflation port reaches the set pressure of the gas chamber, the pressure transmitter sends a signal to the control module, stopping inflation and issuing an inflation complete signal. When the C4F7N gas cylinder pressure is insufficient, the seventh pressure sensor 47 sends a signal to the control module, stopping inflation and issuing a C4F7N gas cylinder low pressure signal. When the CO2 cylinder pressure is insufficient, the eighth pressure sensor 50 sends a signal to the control module, stopping the filling process and issuing a CO2 cylinder pressure insufficient signal. When the O2 cylinder pressure is insufficient, the ninth pressure sensor 57 sends a signal to the control module, stopping the filling process and issuing an O2 cylinder pressure insufficient signal.

[0035] Connect the gas chamber to the mixing port 73 via a hose. Open the fourth electric valve 30, heater 22, and seventh axial flow solenoid valve 37 sequentially to fill the mixing tank 39 with the mixed gas from the storage tank 34 until the set pressure is reached. Then close the fourth electric valve 30, heater 22, and seventh axial flow solenoid valve 37. Measure the gas-mixing ratio in the mixing tank 39 using an external detector and calculate the make-up gas concentration. According to the make-up gas concentration, open the ninth axial flow solenoid valve 45, eleventh axial flow solenoid valve 53, and thirteenth axial flow solenoid valve 60 sequentially and start the first mass flow controller 43 and the second mass flow controller 44. Controller 55 and the third mass flow controller 62 open the fourteenth axial flow solenoid valve 63 and the fifteenth axial flow solenoid valve 64, starting the C4F7N mixed gas pressurizing compressor 80 to adjust the gas-mix ratio. After the replenishment pressure (sixth pressure sensor 40) reaches the set pressure, the ninth axial flow solenoid valve 45, the eleventh axial flow solenoid valve 53, the thirteenth axial flow solenoid valve 60, the first mass flow controller 43, the second mass flow controller 55, the third mass flow controller 62, the fourteenth axial flow solenoid valve 63, and the fifteenth axial flow solenoid valve 64 stop. The sixteenth axial flow solenoid valve 65 and the twentieth axial flow solenoid valve 78 open, and the C4F7N mixed gas pressurizing compressor pressurizes the adjusted mixed gas in the mixing tank into the switch.
