Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a cooling device, in particular to a cooling device for the bottom of an electric arc furnace, and belongs to the technical field of design and manufacture of cooling systems. Background Art
[0002] At present, the bottom electrodes of DC furnaces mainly include conductive furnace bottom type, multi-contact pin type and steel column type. These electrodes are not only complex in structure, but also mostly cooled by air cooling. Although the air cooling method has a relatively simple structure, the cooling effect is poor. At the same time, air cooling has a high space requirement, and sufficient space is required to install large air cooling equipment, which is difficult to meet in ordinary small factories. In addition, the air cooling method cannot recycle waste heat, resulting in energy waste. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing technology. Summary of the invention
[0003] In order to solve the problems that the bottom electrode of the existing DC electric furnace adopts air cooling, resulting in poor cooling effect and inability to recover waste heat, the present invention provides a cooling device for the bottom of the electric arc furnace.

[0005] The water outlet pipe is connected to a cooler or to a device that needs hot water.
[0006] The conductive copper tiles are arranged in three circles from the center to the periphery. The first circle is a circular conductive copper tile arranged in the center of the furnace bottom. The second circle is arranged around the first circle to form a circle surrounded by multiple fan-shaped conductive copper tiles. The third circle is arranged around the second circle to form a circle surrounded by multiple fan-shaped conductive copper tiles, so that a downward concave circular conductive furnace bottom is formed by three circles of conductive copper tiles.
[0007] The second circle of sector-shaped conductive copper tiles is provided with four pieces connected to each other, and the third circle of sector-shaped conductive copper tiles is provided with sixteen pieces connected to each other.
[0008] The bottom of the circular conductive copper tile of the first circle is provided with two water inlets and two water outlets connected with its cavity; the bottom of each fan-shaped conductive copper tile of the second circle and the third circle is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet connected with its cavity, so as to directly cool the conductive copper tile by conveying cooling water into the cavity.
[0009] The tower-type uniform flow water distributor comprises a water supply main composed of a vertical upper thin tube and a lower thick tube. The upper thin tube and the lower thick tube are respectively connected to the inner sides of the upper and lower annular tubes through corresponding upper and lower horizontal connecting tubes. The outer sides of the upper and lower annular tubes are respectively connected to a plurality of corresponding upper water supply branches and a plurality of lower water supply branches which are arranged at intervals. The plurality of upper water supply branches are connected to the corresponding second circle of fan-shaped conductive copper tiles, and the lower water supply branches are connected to the corresponding third circle of fan-shaped conductive copper tiles. Two top water supply branches are arranged on the top of the upper thin tube. The top water supply branches are connected to the central circular conductive copper tiles of the first circle, so that when cooling water enters the upper thin tube from the lower thick tube to supply water, the water flow is evenly distributed to the upper and lower water supply branches, and the cooling water flow is adjusted by a throttling orifice.
[0010] The bottom end of the lower thick tube of the water supply main pipe is the water inlet end, and the top end of the upper thin tube is the closed end. The lower thick tube and the upper thin tube are connected through a tapered tube with a small top and a large bottom to evenly distribute cooling water.
[0011] The diameters of the upper horizontal connecting pipe and the upper annular pipe are smaller than the diameters of the lower horizontal connecting pipe and the lower annular pipe, so as to evenly distribute the cooling water while ensuring the consistency of the cooling water pressure and flow.
[0012] The upper and lower water supply branch pipes have the same diameter, and the number of elbows and the bending angle of each water supply branch pipe are the same, so that the flow rate and pressure of cooling water entering the conductive copper tile cavity remain consistent.
[0013] The upper and lower water supply branches are provided with throttling orifice plates, which include two flanges provided on the water supply branch pipes, and an orifice plate provided between the two flanges and having a plurality of through holes thereon. The number, shape and size of through holes in each throttling orifice plate are the same, so that the flow rate and flow velocity of the cooling water flowing through can be controlled through the through holes, so that the flow rate and flow velocity of the cooling water flowing through each water supply branch pipe are consistent.
[0014] The upper annular tube and the lower annular tube are provided with pressure gauges for detecting water pressure.
[0015] The present invention has the following advantages and effects: by adopting the above scheme, the arc furnace bottom of the ore-heating furnace formed by several conductive copper tiles with cavities therein can be conveniently connected with the conductive copper tile cavities through the water supply pipe, that is, water is used as the cooling medium to effectively water-cool the conductive copper tiles of the furnace bottom, and then the tower-type flow-equalizing water distributor is used to evenly deliver cooling water with a consistent flow rate and pressure to the cavities of each conductive copper tile, which greatly improves the cooling effect while saving water resources to the maximum extent, and the heated cooling water can be used for other purposes to make full use of the heat energy, and the cooled water can be returned for recycling, which greatly reduces the cooling cost and is more environmentally friendly. It is indeed an ideal furnace bottom cooling device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
