Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of steam heating systems, and in particular relates to a long-distance steam heating system. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous development of national industrial agglomeration and economies of scale, the demand for steam from various industrial or industrial park production enterprises is increasing. In addition, with the continuous upgrading of national low-carbon and environmental protection requirements, cogeneration units with industrial and production heat loads as the main features have the advantages of high comprehensive energy utilization efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection. However, due to the relatively long distance between some production enterprises and thermal power plants, a large number of large-diameter and long-distance steam heating pipelines of 15km to 20km or even longer have appeared in recent years, exceeding the steam heating radius stipulated in the heat network specifications (generally no more than 5km to 8km).
[0003] For steam heat loads of industrial and manufacturing enterprises, the steam parameters required are different according to their different process flows and heat requirements, and can usually be simply divided into high-pressure, medium-pressure and low-pressure steam loads. In addition, the steam temperature is also an important factor affecting the planning and construction of steam transmission and heating systems. In order to meet the steam demand of different users mentioned above, the existing technology generally adopts two steam heating systems: multi-pipe steam heating system and single-pipe steam heating system with user-side pressure regulation for adaptive steam supply.
[0004] The principle of the multi-pipe steam heating system is: according to the different steam parameters of steam users in the load area, two or more steam pipelines with different parameter levels are planned and constructed for steam supply, and the steam parameter adjustment is mainly set up in the steam heat source plant. Figure 1 The multi-pipe steam heating system shown in the figure, Figure 1 The steam users in this area include high-pressure steam users 21, medium-pressure steam users 31 and low-pressure steam users 41. Correspondingly, high-pressure steam pipelines 2, medium-pressure steam pipelines 3 and low-pressure steam pipelines 4 are planned. The steam in the steam heat source plant 1 is transported to users with corresponding steam application parameters through each steam pipeline.
[0005] For example Figure 1 The multi-pipe steam heating system shown can better meet the steam demand of users with different parameters in the load area. However, the biggest disadvantage of this steam heating system is that the project construction investment is high, especially for long-distance steam heating systems, the construction cost of the pipeline accounts for a large proportion of the entire project investment, and has the disadvantage of poor economic benefits.
[0006] The principle of the steam heating system with single-pipe and user-side pressure regulation is as follows: according to the different steam parameters of production enterprises in the load area, the long-distance steam supply parameters are determined after comprehensive technical and economic comparison. The long-distance steam supply parameters are usually higher than the steam parameters of the highest user in the load area. Then a high-pressure steam pipeline is planned and constructed to supply steam to the load area. Medium and low-pressure steam users in the load area can adapt the parameters for heating by setting temperature and pressure reduction devices at the user end. For example, Figure 2 In the single-pipe steam heating system with user-side pressure regulation shown, the steam in the steam heat source plant 1 is transported to each user (high-pressure steam user 21, medium-pressure steam user 31 and low-pressure steam user 41) through the high-pressure steam pipeline 2. Each user obtains steam with corresponding parameters through temperature and pressure reduction devices according to its own steam usage parameters.
[0007] For example Figure 2 The steam heating system with a single pipe and user-side pressure regulation shown in the figure can theoretically meet the steam demand of users with different parameters in the load area, and the construction investment of the project is low compared with the multi-pipe steam heating system. However, in actual application, due to the uneven technical management level of production steam enterprises and the pressure fluctuations caused by the load size during the actual operation of the steam pipeline, the parameter selection of the enterprise's temperature reduction and pressure reduction device deviates from the actual operating conditions, and the steam parameters after temperature reduction and pressure reduction cannot meet the use requirements.
[0008] In addition, for the condensate recovery systems of the above two steam heating systems, there is a situation where user companies select pumps independently. This situation will cause large fluctuations in the operating pressure of the condensate pipeline, which may cause the condensate of some user companies to be unable to return to the heat source, and even affect the production safety of the heat source plant. Summary of the invention
[0009] In order to solve all or part of the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a long-distance steam heating system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, a long-distance steam heating system of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 3As shown, it shows a long-distance steam heating system of an embodiment of the present invention, including a long-distance steam pipeline 5, a power parameter adaptation station 6 and a plurality of terminal steam pipelines 7, wherein: the long-distance steam pipeline 5 is used to transport the high-pressure steam in the steam heat source plant 1 to the power parameter adaptation station 6; the power parameter adaptation station 6 is used to adjust the high-pressure steam transported by the long-distance steam pipeline 5 to steam of different pressure levels according to the steam demand of users in the area; the terminal steam pipelines 7 are respectively used to transport steam of corresponding pressure levels to corresponding users in the area.
[0034] The long-distance steam heating system of the embodiment of the present invention is a combination of the existing multi-pipe steam heating system and the single-pipe steam heating system with user-end pressure regulation. Specifically, the long-distance steam heating system of the embodiment of the present invention uses a long-distance steam pipeline 5 to transport the steam in the steam heat source plant 1 far away from the heat load area to the power parameter adaptation station 6. The power parameter adaptation station 6 adjusts the high-pressure steam transported by the long-distance steam pipeline 5 to steam of different pressure levels according to the different steam usage parameters of the production enterprises in the load area, and finally uses the multi-pipe steam heating system to supply steam to the area.
[0035] The long-distance steam heating system of the embodiment of the present invention can not only meet the steam parameter requirements of different users in the load area, but also reduce the construction cost of the long-distance steam pipeline 5 compared with the multi-pipe steam heating system.
[0036] Specifically, the long-distance steam pipeline 5 of the embodiment of the present invention is used to transport the high-pressure steam in the steam heat source plant 1 to the power parameter adaptation station 6. In specific implementation, the parameter formulation of the long-distance steam pipeline 5 needs to be determined after comprehensive technical and economic comparison based on the different steam parameters of users in the load area and the steam parameters of the heat source plant. In addition, the long-distance steam pipeline 5 usually adopts a single pipe control, thereby reducing the cost of laying the pipeline. Secondly, considering the large load changes on the user side and the inability of a single pipe flow to meet the user's steam demand, the long-distance steam pipeline 5 can also adopt multi-pipe control. The pipe diameter of the long-distance steam pipeline 5 needs to be determined by comparing multiple schemes based on the specific project.
[0037] Among them, the power parameter adaptation station 6 is the core of the long-distance steam heating system of the embodiment of the present invention. Its main function is to adjust the pressure and temperature of the long-distance steam by setting different parameters of the cooling and pressure reducing devices 63 and the steam boosting devices 62 in a graded and centralized manner according to the different steam parameter requirements of the production enterprises in the load area, so as to meet the steam requirements of users in the area.
[0038] Specifically, in one embodiment, Figure 4As shown, a steam separation unit is provided in the power parameter adaptation station 6, the inlet end of the steam separation unit is connected to the long-distance steam pipeline 5, and the outlet end of the steam separation unit is respectively connected to the corresponding terminal steam pipelines 7. The steam separation unit is used to divide the high-pressure steam transported by the long-distance steam pipeline 5 into different routes and transport it to the corresponding terminal steam pipelines 7.
[0039] by Figure 3 For example, the terminal steam pipeline 7 includes a high-pressure steam pipeline 2, a medium-pressure steam pipeline 3 and a low-pressure steam pipeline 4. The steam separation unit is used to divide the high-pressure steam transported by the long-distance steam pipeline 5 into several routes and transport them to the corresponding high-pressure steam pipeline 2, medium-pressure steam pipeline 3 and low-pressure steam pipeline 4. Figure 4 For example, Figure 4 The middle steam splitting unit is a steam splitting cylinder 61, the inlet end of the steam splitting cylinder 61 is connected to the long-distance steam pipeline 5, and the outlet end of the steam splitting cylinder 61 is connected to the corresponding terminal steam pipeline 7. The steam splitting cylinder 61 splits the high-pressure steam transported by the long-distance steam pipeline 5 into 4 routes and transports them to the corresponding terminal steam pipelines 7.
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, a steam pressure regulating device is also provided in the power parameter adaptation station 6. The steam pressure regulating device is provided on each terminal steam pipe 7. The steam pressure regulating device is used to regulate the steam in the terminal steam pipe 7 where it is located to a corresponding pressure level.
[0041] In specific implementation, the steam pressure regulating device includes a steam booster 62 and / or a temperature and pressure reduction device 63. Each terminal steam pipe 7 is respectively provided with a steam booster 62 or a temperature and pressure reduction device 63. The steam booster 62 is used to increase the pressure of the steam in the terminal steam pipe 7 where it is located, and the temperature and pressure reduction device 63 is used to reduce the pressure of the steam in the terminal steam pipe 7 where it is located.
[0042] Again Figure 4 For example, Figure 4 The middle and terminal steam pipelines 7 are composed of several routes, which are respectively used to transport ultra-high pressure steam, high pressure steam, medium pressure steam and low pressure steam, while the long-distance steam pipeline 5 transports high pressure steam; therefore, the terminal steam pipeline 7 used to transport ultra-high pressure steam is provided with a steam booster 62, and the steam booster 62 is used to boost the high pressure steam into ultra-high pressure steam; the terminal steam pipeline 7 used to transport medium pressure steam is provided with a temperature reduction and pressure reduction device 63, and the temperature reduction and pressure reduction device 63 is used to reduce the pressure of high pressure steam into medium pressure steam; the terminal steam pipeline 7 used to transport low pressure steam is provided with a temperature reduction and pressure reduction device 63, and the temperature reduction and pressure reduction device 63 is used to reduce the pressure of high pressure steam into low pressure steam.
[0043] The steam pressure regulating device of this embodiment is arranged in the power parameter adaptation station 6, so there is no need for each steam user to adjust it by themselves, which overcomes the problem in the prior art that the steam parameters obtained by the user after adjusting through the temperature reduction and pressure reduction device 63 cannot meet the use requirements.
[0044] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, a condensate recovery system 64 is provided in the power parameter adaptation station 6 , and the condensate recovery system 64 is used to recover the user's steam condensate and send it back to the steam heat source plant 1 .
[0045] The condensate recovery system 64 of this embodiment is used to recover the steam condensate of the user, so as to ensure the stable operation of the steam condensate recovery, thus overcoming the problem in the prior art that the operating pressure of the condensate pipeline fluctuates greatly due to the independent pump selection by each user, and even the condensate cannot be returned to the heat source.
[0046] Among them, the condensate recovery system 64 includes a recovery unit, a water treatment unit, a water quality detection unit and a transportation unit. The recovery unit is used to recover the user's steam condensate, the water treatment unit is used to treat the recovered steam condensate, the water quality detection unit is used to detect the water quality of the condensate before and after treatment by the water treatment unit, and the transportation unit is used to transport the condensate that has passed the inspection of the water quality detection unit to the steam heat source plant 1.
[0047] The setting of the condensate recovery system 64 of this embodiment ensures the water quality of the condensate returned to the steam heat source plant 1. When the water quality of the steam condensate does not meet the requirements of the power plant, the water treatment unit will treat it. The steam condensate after the water quality treatment is qualified can be returned to the steam heat source plant 1.
[0048] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, a steam generating device 65 is provided in the power parameter adaptation station 6, and the steam generating device 65 is used to generate steam. The steam generated by the steam generating device 65 is used for supplementary steam supply or emergency standby.
[0049] The steam generating device 65 of this embodiment is used to supplement the supply of steam, thereby solving the problem that the steam processed by the steam boosting device 62 or the temperature and pressure reducing device 63 cannot meet the steam parameters of some users in the load area; and the setting of the steam generating device 65 can also increase the peak load regulation or accident emergency guarantee capability of the system. In specific implementation, the steam generating device 65 is, for example, a steam boiler or a steam generator.
[0050] Again, if Figure 4 As shown, the aforementioned condensate recovery system 64 for recovering the user's steam condensate can also be used as a water source for the steam generating device 65 of this embodiment.
[0051] Finally, the terminal steam pipeline 7 is used to deliver the steam processed by the steam pressure regulating device to the user. In specific implementation, two or more terminal steam pipelines 7 with different parameter levels are planned and constructed according to different steam parameters of users in the load area for steam supply.
[0052] To sum up, the long-distance steam heating system in the embodiment of the present invention is a combination of the existing multi-pipe steam heating system and the single-pipe steam heating system with household-end pressure regulation. It has the advantages of the multi-pipe steam heating system and the single-pipe steam heating system with household-end pressure regulation. While meeting the steam demand requirements of different user parameters in the load area, the comprehensive construction investment of the project is relatively low.
