Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of condenser cleaning, and specifically, to an on-line cleaning method for condensers. Background Art

[0002] A condenser is an important component of the cold-end device of a modern thermal power plant. Its main function is to quickly condense the steam that has done work on the steam turbine into water, so as to establish and maintain a certain vacuum degree at the exhaust port of the steam turbine, thereby improving the power generation efficiency. If the vacuum degree at the exhaust port of the steam turbine is too low, it will seriously affect the safe and economic operation of the power plant unit. An important reason for the too low vacuum at the exhaust port of the steam turbine is the fouling of the heat exchange tubes of the condenser and the dust deposition therein. The fouling and dust deposition of the condenser will seriously affect the heat exchange efficiency of the condenser, and at the same time will cause corrosion of the condenser tubes, which is also a safety hazard.

[0003] For a long time, the cleaning methods for the heat exchange pipes of condensers have mainly been divided into two methods: manual cleaning during shutdown and on-line cleaning. Manual cleaning during shutdown mainly uses mechanical brush cleaning or high-pressure water injection cleaning; on-line cleaning is mainly divided into chemical agent cleaning (mainly pickling) and putting rubber balls into the condenser for cleaning. Using these cleaning methods cannot effectively and safely remove the dirt in the condenser, and will also bring a series of problems: Manual cleaning must be carried out when the equipment is shut down, which will directly affect the operating cost of the power plant. In addition, the labor intensity of workers is very high, and the construction environment is relatively harsh. The acid solution used in chemical agent cleaning will corrode the equipment and form holes, ultimately resulting in equipment replacement. In addition, the cleaning waste liquid will cause great pollution to the environment, and a large amount of funds are required for wastewater treatment. Moreover, this kind of chemical cleaning technology cannot be used in open-type units; Although the method of putting rubber balls into the condenser can play a role in removing scale, in actual use, there will be a situation where the rubber balls block the heat exchange tubes, and the amount of rubber balls put in is large, but the recovery rate is very low, which will also lead to an increase in operating costs.

[0004] In summary, all existing cleaning methods for condensers currently have various problems and many deficiencies. Thermal power plants urgently need a new generation of cleaning technology to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an on-line cleaning method for condensers.

[0025] Underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras facing the condenser tube sheet and located above the outer pipeline are fixedly installed on the upper parts of two second connection seats which are located in the middle and symmetric left and right. Two aiming devices arranged at intervals left and right are fixedly installed on the upper side edge of the arc-shaped plate. The two aiming devices are respectively arranged directly behind the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras. The sight of the aiming device corresponds to the center of a corresponding heat exchange tube on the condenser tube sheet before and after. The PLC control system is connected to the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras through signal wires.

[0026] Step (2) is specifically as follows: The PLC control system is used to control the rotation of the servo motor. The servo motor drives two speed reducers to rotate synchronously. The two speed reducers respectively drive two synchronous shafts, which in turn synchronously drive the corresponding two lead screws to rotate. Then, the two lead screws respectively drive two nut sleeves to drive the lifting beam to move on two vertical guide rails. The lifting beam drives the nested flow-through assembly to move synchronously. At the same time, the underwater high-definition explosion-proof camera captures the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber in real time and transmits the captured images to the PLC control system. In this way, the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber can be observed through the display screen of the PLC control system outside the condenser water chamber, and the aiming device can be used to accurately position each high-pressure rotating nozzle outside the condenser water chamber. Among them, during the up-and-down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, the left robotic arm pipe and the right robotic arm pipe can swing along with the up-and-down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, so as to ensure that the left passage pipe is always connected to the high-pressure water inlet pipe, the right passage pipe is always connected to the low-pressure water inlet pipe, and at the same time ensure that adjacent control pipes are always connected through the control pipes on the corresponding rotary joints. When the lifting beam drives the nested flow-through assembly to move to a certain cleaning position, each high-pressure rotating nozzle corresponds to the corresponding tube orifices of the heat exchange tubes on the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position. Then, the PLC control system controls the servo motor to lock and stop, and further locks and stops the nested horizontal cleaning machine.

[0027] Step (3) is specifically as follows: The PLC control system is used to control the hydraulic control systems of two hydraulic cylinders, so that the control oil fluid enters the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders through each control pipe. The piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders extend backward synchronously. Then, the two hydraulic cylinders push the nested flow-through assembly towards the condenser tube sheet, and the sealing plate is pressed against the condenser tube sheet, and the sealing plate seals the corresponding tube orifices of the heat exchange tubes on the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position.

[0028] Step (4) is specifically as follows: The PLC control system is used to control the start of the low-pressure water supply system. The low-pressure water supply system enables the low-pressure water to enter the low-pressure water flow-through space through the right passage pipe, the right robotic arm pipe, the right-side medium delivery pipe, and the low-pressure water inlet pipe. The low-pressure water then enters the corresponding heat exchange tubes through each round hole and each flow-through hole, pushing away the circulating water in the heat exchange tubes to form a forward water flow space.

[0029] Step (5) is specifically as follows: After the forward water flow space is formed, the high-pressure water supply system is started. The high-pressure water enters the high-pressure water flow-through space through the left passage pipe, the left robotic arm pipe, the left-side medium delivery pipe, and the high-pressure water inlet pipe. The high-pressure water then forms a rotating high-pressure water jet through each high-pressure rotating nozzle and injects it into the corresponding heat exchange tubes, forming a high-speed water flow rotating forward in the heat exchange tubes to clean the tube walls of the corresponding heat exchange tubes.

[0030] Step (vi) is specifically as follows: After the cleaning of each corresponding heat exchange tube at the cleaning position is completed, stop the high-pressure water supply system and the low-pressure water supply system, and stop the control oil from being injected into the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders through each oil inlet pipeline. At the same time, control the hydraulic control systems of the two hydraulic cylinders through the PLC control system, so that the control oil enters the oil return ports of the two hydraulic cylinders through each oil return pipeline, and the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders contract forward synchronously to the initial state. Then, the two hydraulic cylinders drive the nested flow-through assembly to move forward away from the condenser tube sheet. In this way, a cleaning step is completed. Then, control the servo motor to rotate again through the PLC control system. The servo motor drives the two nut sleeves to drive the lifting beam to move on the two vertical guide rails through the two speed reducers and the two lead screws respectively, so that the lifting beam drives the nested flow-through assembly to move to the next cleaning position. Each high-pressure rotating nozzle corresponds to the front and rear of the corresponding heat exchange tube nozzles on the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position. Then repeat steps (iii) to (v) to clean each heat exchange tube at this cleaning position until all the heat exchange tubes are cleaned.

[0031] The low-pressure water supply system of the present invention can be replaced by an acid solution supply system or a gas supply system, so that the acid solution or compressed gas enters the low-pressure water flow-through space through the right passage pipeline, the right robotic arm pipeline, the medium delivery pipeline on the right side, and the low-pressure water inlet pipe. The acid solution or compressed gas is then injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes through each round hole and each flow hole to push away the circulating water in the heat exchange tubes, forming an acid solution space to soak the dirt on the inner wall of the heat exchange tubes or a downstream compressed gas space. Then start the high-pressure water supply system to perform a rotating high-pressure water rinse on each heat exchange tube. The low-pressure water supply system, the high-pressure water supply system, the acid solution supply system, and the gas supply system are all conventional designs. The low-pressure water supply system, the high-pressure water supply system, and the acid solution supply system all include water pumps, water tanks, and water supply pipelines. The gas supply system includes an air pump, an air tank, and a gas supply pipeline. The specific connection pipeline structure is the prior art and can be realized by those skilled in the art, so no further description is needed.

[0032] The hydraulic cylinder can be replaced by a cylinder, and the control oil in the corresponding oil inlet pipeline and oil return pipeline can be replaced by control gas. The hydraulic cylinder or cylinder is a conventional device, and the specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail.

[0033] The sealing assembly includes a first sealing structure, a second sealing structure, and a third sealing structure. The first sealing structure is a tetrafluoro-carbon fiber sealing structure, the second sealing structure is an end face mechanical sealing structure, and the third sealing structure is a cartridge mechanical sealing structure, which can prevent the leakage of water in the condenser water chamber at the connection with the synchronous shaft, ensure the sealing performance, and the setting of the first bearing and the second bearing can ensure the stable rotation of the synchronous shaft, prevent swinging, and improve the sealing effect and service life of the second sealing structure and the third sealing structure.

[0034] The structure of the present invention is reasonable, scientifically designed, and highly reliable. It can achieve all-weather unattended online automatic cleaning without shutting down the machine, liberating workers from harsh working environments and tedious labor, and realizing energy conservation at the cold end of thermal power plants.

An inlet flange 91 is integrally formed at the lower end part of the vertical pipe. The rear side part of the inlet flange 91 is provided with a second L-shaped hole 82. One end of the second L-shaped hole 82 is located on the lower end face of the inlet flange 91, and the other end of the second L-shaped hole 82 is located on the outer cylindrical surface at the rear side of the inlet flange 91. A U-shaped pipe 83 located inside the rotary pipe joint 63 is fixedly connected between the inner end of the second connection hole and the inner end of the first L-shaped hole 81. A bent pipe 84 located at the rear side of the vertical pipe is fixedly connected between the outer end of the first connection hole 88 and the rear end of the second L-shaped hole 82. The inlet flange 91 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the left passage pipe 1, the outlet flange 90 is fixedly connected to the left end of the first swing arm pipe 57, the lower end of the second L-shaped hole 82 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the oil inlet pipeline 60 on the left passage pipe 1, and the rear end of the first L-shaped hole 81 is fixedly connected to the left end of the oil inlet pipeline 60 on the first swing arm pipe 57.,

[0065] On the upper parts of two second connection seats 56 located in the middle and symmetric about the left and right, underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras 85 that are located above the outer pipe 39 and face the condenser tube sheet 4 for shooting are fixedly installed. Two aiming devices 86 spaced left and right are fixedly installed on the upper side edge of the arc-shaped plate 45. The two aiming devices 86 are respectively arranged directly behind the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras 85. The sight of the aiming device 86 is centered front and back with the corresponding heat exchange tube 5 on the condenser tube sheet 4. The PLC control system is connected to the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras 85 through signal wires.

[0066] Step (2) is specifically as follows: The PLC control system is used to control the rotation of the servo motor 11. The servo motor 11 drives the two speed reducers 10 to rotate synchronously. The two speed reducers 10 respectively drive the two synchronous shafts 92, and then synchronously drive the corresponding two lead screws 16 to rotate. Then the two lead screws 16 respectively drive the two nut sleeves 17 to drive the lifting beam 38 to move on the two vertical guide rails. The lifting beam 38 drives the nested flow-through assembly to move synchronously. At the same time, the underwater high-definition explosion-proof camera 85 captures the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber 3 in real time and transmits the captured images to the PLC control system. In this way, the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber 3 can be observed through the display screen of the PLC control system outside the condenser water chamber 3. With the help of the sighting device 86, the high-pressure rotary nozzles 49 can be accurately positioned against the heat exchange tubes 5 outside the condenser water chamber 3. Among them, during the up and down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, the left robotic arm pipe and the right robotic arm pipe can swing along with the up and down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, so as to ensure that the left passage pipe 1 is always connected to the high-pressure water inlet pipe 44, and the right passage pipe 2 is always connected to the low-pressure water inlet pipe 43. At the same time, it is ensured that the adjacent two oil inlet pipes 60 are always connected through the control pipes on the corresponding rotary joints 59. When the lifting beam 38 drives the nested flow-through assembly to move to a certain cleaning position, the high-pressure rotary nozzles 49 correspond to the orifices of the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 on the condenser tube sheet 4 at this cleaning position. Then the PLC control system controls the servo motor 11 to lock and stop, and further locks and stops the nested horizontal cleaning machine.

[0067] Step (3) is specifically as follows: The hydraulic control systems of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 are controlled by the PLC control system, so that the control oil fluid enters the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 through the respective oil inlet pipes 60. The piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 extend backward synchronously. Then the two hydraulic cylinders 52 push the nested flow-through assembly towards the condenser tube sheet 4, and the front side of the sealing plate 46 is pressed against the condenser tube sheet 4. The sealing plate 46 seals the orifices of the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 on the condenser tube sheet 4 at this cleaning position.

[0068] Step (4) is specifically as follows: The PLC control system is used to control the start of the low-pressure water supply system. The low-pressure water supply system enables the low-pressure water to enter the low-pressure water flow-through space 42 through the right passage pipe 2, the right robotic arm pipe, the right-side medium delivery pipe 50 and the low-pressure water inlet pipe 43. The low-pressure water is then injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 through the respective round holes and flow holes 48, pushing away the circulating water in the heat exchange tubes 5 to form a forward-flow water space.

[0069] Step (V) is specifically as follows: After the downstream water space is formed, start the high-pressure water supply system. High-pressure water enters the high-pressure water flow-through space 41 through the left passage pipeline 1, the left robotic arm pipeline, the medium delivery pipeline 50 on the left side, and the high-pressure water inlet pipe 44. Then, the high-pressure water forms a rotating high-pressure water jet through each high-pressure rotating nozzle 49 and is injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5. A high-speed water flow that rotates and advances is formed inside the heat exchange tubes 5 to clean the walls of the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5.

[0070] Step (VI) is specifically as follows: After the cleaning of the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 at the cleaning position is completed, stop the high-pressure water supply system and the low-pressure water supply system, and stop the control oil from being injected into the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 through each oil inlet pipeline 60. At the same time, control the hydraulic control system of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 through the PLC control system, so that the control oil enters the oil return ports of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 through each oil return pipeline 61, and the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders 52 contract forward synchronously to the initial state. Then, the two hydraulic cylinders 52 drive the nested flow-through assembly to move forward away from the condenser tube sheet 4. In this way, one cleaning step is completed. Then, control the servo motor 11 to rotate again through the PLC control system. The servo motor 11 drives the two nut sleeves 17 through the two speed reducers 10 and the two lead screws 16 respectively to drive the lifting beam 38 to move on the two vertical guide rails 94, so that the lifting beam 38 drives the nested flow-through assembly to move to the next cleaning position. Each high-pressure rotating nozzle 49 corresponds to the mouths of the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 on the condenser tube sheet 4 at this cleaning position. After that, repeat the above cleaning steps to clean the heat exchange tubes 5 at this cleaning position until all the heat exchange tubes 5 are cleaned.

[0071] The speed reducer 10, the servo motor 11, the PLC control system, the polytetrafluoroethylene carbon fiber sealing structure, the end face mechanical sealing structure, the assembled mechanical sealing structure, the high-pressure rotating nozzle 49, the hydraulic cylinder 52, the underwater high-definition explosion-proof camera 85, and the sighting device 86 are all existing conventional technologies and can be purchased in the market.

[0072] The structure of the present invention is reasonable, scientifically designed, and highly reliable. It can achieve all-weather unattended online automatic cleaning without shutting down the machine, and can liberate workers from harsh working environments and tedious labor, realizing cold-end energy conservation in thermal power plants.

[0073] The low-pressure water supply system can be replaced with an acid solution supply system or a gas supply system, so that the acid solution or compressed gas enters the low-pressure water flow space 42 through the right passage pipe 2, the right robotic arm pipe, the medium delivery pipe 50 on the right side, and the low-pressure water inlet pipe 43. Then, the acid solution or compressed gas is injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes 5 through each round hole and each flow hole 48, pushing away the circulating water in the heat exchange tubes 5 to form an acid solution space to soak the dirt on the inner wall of the heat exchange tubes 5 or a downstream compressed gas space. After that, the high-pressure water supply system is started to perform a rotating high-water-pressure flushing on each heat exchange tube 5. The low-pressure water supply system, the high-pressure water supply system, the acid solution supply system, and the gas supply system are all of conventional designs. The low-pressure water supply system, the high-pressure water supply system, and the acid solution supply system all include water pumps, water tanks, and water supply pipelines. The gas supply system includes air pumps, gas tanks, and gas supply pipelines. The specific connection pipeline structure is an existing technology and can be implemented by those skilled in the art, so no further elaboration is needed.

[0074] The hydraulic cylinder 52 can be replaced with a cylinder, and the control hydraulic fluid in the corresponding oil inlet pipeline 60 and oil return pipeline 61 can be replaced with control gas. The hydraulic cylinder 52 or the cylinder is a conventional device, and its specific structure and working principle will not be elaborated further.

[0075] The sealing assembly includes a first sealing structure 23, a second sealing structure 24, and a third sealing structure 25. The first sealing structure 23 is a tetrafluoro carbon fiber sealing structure, the second sealing structure 24 is an end face mechanical sealing structure, and the third sealing structure 25 is a cartridge mechanical sealing structure, which can prevent the condenser water chamber 3 from leaking at the connection with the synchronous shaft 92, ensuring the sealing performance. Moreover, the setting of the first bearing 33 and the second bearing 36 can ensure the stable rotation of the synchronous shaft 92, prevent it from swinging, and improve the sealing effect and service life of the second sealing structure 24 and the third sealing structure 25.

The on-line cleaning method of the condenser according to claim 4, characterized in that: On the upper parts of two second connection seats located in the middle and symmetrically left and right, underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras are fixedly installed above the outer pipeline and facing the condenser tube sheet for shooting. Two aiming devices are fixedly installed on the upper side edge of the arc-shaped plate and are arranged at intervals left and right. The two aiming devices are respectively arranged directly behind the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras. The sights of the aiming devices are relatively corresponding to the centers of the corresponding heat exchange tubes on the condenser tube sheet front and back. The PLC control system is connected to the two underwater high-definition explosion-proof cameras through signal wires.

6. The on-line cleaning method of the condenser according to claim 5, characterized in that: Step (ii) is specifically as follows: Control the servo motor to rotate through the PLC control system. The servo motor drives two speed reducers to rotate synchronously. The two speed reducers respectively drive two synchronous shafts and then synchronously drive the corresponding two lead screws to rotate. Then, the two lead screws respectively drive two nut sleeves to drive the lifting beam to move on two vertical guiding rails. Then, the lifting beam drives the nested flow-through assembly to move synchronously. At the same time, the underwater high-definition explosion-proof camera shoots the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber in real time and transmits the captured images to the PLC control system. In this way, the operating conditions in the condenser water chamber can be observed through the display screen of the PLC control system outside the condenser water chamber, and the aiming devices can be used to accurately position each high-pressure rotary nozzle outside the condenser water chamber. Among them, during the up and down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, the left robotic arm pipeline and the right robotic arm pipeline can swing with the up and down movement of the nested flow-through assembly, so as to ensure that the left passage pipeline is always connected to the high-pressure water inlet pipe, the right passage pipeline is always connected to the low-pressure water inlet pipe, and at the same time ensure that the adjacent two control pipelines are always connected through the control pipelines on the corresponding rotary joints. When the lifting beam drives the nested flow-through assembly to move to a certain cleaning position, each high-pressure rotary nozzle corresponds to the corresponding heat exchange tube nozzles on the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position front and back. Then, the PLC control system controls the servo motor to lock and stop, and further locks and stops the nested horizontal cleaning machine; Step (III) specifically includes: controlling the hydraulic control systems of two hydraulic cylinders through a PLC control system, enabling the control oil to enter the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders through respective control pipelines, and synchronously extending the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders backward. Then, the two hydraulic cylinders push the nested flow-through assembly towards the condenser tube sheet, and make the sealing plate tightly adhere to the condenser tube sheet, and the sealing plate seals the corresponding tube orifices of the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position.

7. The on-line cleaning method of a condenser according to claim 6, wherein: Step (IV) specifically includes: controlling the start of the low-pressure water supply system through a PLC control system. The low-pressure water supply system enables the low-pressure water to enter the low-pressure water flow-through space through the right passage pipeline, the right robotic arm pipeline, the medium delivery pipeline on the right side, and the low-pressure water inlet pipe. Then, the low-pressure water is injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes through respective round holes and flow holes, pushing away the circulating water in the heat exchange tubes to form a forward-flow water space. Step (V) specifically includes: after the forward-flow water space is formed, starting the high-pressure water supply system. The high-pressure water enters the high-pressure water flow-through space through the left passage pipeline, the left robotic arm pipeline, the medium delivery pipeline on the left side, and the high-pressure water inlet pipe. Then, the high-pressure water forms a rotating high-pressure water jet through respective high-pressure rotating nozzles and is injected into the corresponding heat exchange tubes, forming a high-speed water flow that rotates and advances inside the heat exchange tubes to clean the tube walls of the corresponding heat exchange tubes.

8. The on-line cleaning method of a condenser according to claim 7, characterized in that: Step (VI) specifically includes: after the cleaning of the corresponding heat exchange tubes at this cleaning position is completed, stopping the high-pressure water supply system and the low-pressure water supply system, and stopping the control oil from being injected into the oil inlets of the two hydraulic cylinders through respective oil inlet pipelines. Meanwhile, controlling the hydraulic control systems of the two hydraulic cylinders through a PLC control system, enabling the control oil to enter the oil return ports of the two hydraulic cylinders through respective oil return pipelines, and synchronously retracting the piston rods of the two hydraulic cylinders forward to the initial state. Then, the two hydraulic cylinders drive the nested flow-through assembly to move forward away from the condenser tube sheet. In this way, one cleaning step is completed. Then, controlling the servo motor to rotate again through a PLC control system. The servo motor respectively drives two nut sleeves through two speed reducers and two lead screws to drive the lifting beam to move on two vertical guiding rails, and further enables the lifting beam to drive the nested flow-through assembly to move to the next cleaning position, with each high-pressure rotating nozzle corresponding to the tube orifices of the corresponding heat exchange tubes on the condenser tube sheet at this cleaning position. Then, repeat steps (III) to (V) to clean the heat exchange tubes at this cleaning position until all the heat exchange tubes are cleaned.
