Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of heating of circulating fluidized bed boilers, and particularly relates to a high-temperature circulating ash adjacent furnace heating system and method for a circulating fluidized bed boiler. BACKGROUND
[0002] A circulating fluidized bed boiler blows up coal particles, biomass and other fuels and bed materials from the bottom of the furnace by fluidizing air, so that the particles are in a fluidized state and burn. The flue gas carrying part of the fine particles leaves the furnace and enters the gas-solid separator, the separator captures the particles in the fly ash, and returns to the furnace through the return material device, forming a solid particle circulation. There is a large amount of inert solid particle bed material in the furnace, mainly composed of ash left over after coal combustion, which does not participate in the combustion reaction. Because the high-temperature bed material has strong heat storage capacity, it increases the residence time of the fuel in the furnace, and has high combustion efficiency, so the circulating fluidized bed boiler has the characteristics of wide fuel application range; the circulating fluidized bed boiler can stably burn at a relatively low combustion temperature (800-900℃), and the generation of nitrogen oxides is lower than that of a pulverized coal boiler; by adding limestone in the furnace, sulfur dioxide can be removed during the combustion process, greatly reducing the desulfurization cost. Based on the above advantages, the circulating fluidized bed boiler is the best choice for large-scale clean use of high-sulfur and high-ash coal, gangue, washed medium coal, coal slime and biomass fuels. In recent years, the circulating fluidized bed boiler has been developing towards large-scale and high-parameter.
[0003] However, the circulating fluidized bed boiler has a large amount of bed material in the furnace, and the thermal inertia is large, which also has certain problems compared with other forms of boilers:
[0004] 1. Long start-up time and high energy consumption. Because there are hundreds of tons of inert solid particle bed material in the boiler, during the start-up process of the boiler, the bed material in the furnace needs to be heated to a certain temperature first to ensure stable combustion of the fuel in the furnace, so the start-up time of the boiler is relatively long and the energy consumption is relatively high;
[0005] 2. Slow load regulation. During the operation of the boiler, due to the large amount of solid particles in the furnace, the furnace temperature is relatively stable, and during the load regulation process, the furnace temperature and the heat transfer coefficient change relatively slowly, resulting in relatively slow load change.
[0006] With the implementation of the carbon peak and carbon neutral strategies, wind power, solar power and other new energy technologies are becoming the main power generation technologies, and the peak shaving flexibility of traditional coal-fired power plants is being further improved, so it is urgent to improve the load regulation rate of circulating fluidized bed units. SUMMARY
[0007] The application provides a circulating fluidized bed boiler storage bin type high-temperature circulating ash adjacent furnace heating system and method to solve the technical problems of slow start and slow load regulation in the prior art.
[0008] The application comprises the following technical scheme: a circulating fluidized bed boiler storage bin type high-temperature circulating ash adjacent furnace heating system comprises at least two circulating fluidized bed boilers, each of which is provided with a buffer bin, and the hearths of each circulating fluidized bed boiler are connected through a first material conveying main pipe and a second material conveying main pipe; the end of the material outlet pipeline of each buffer bin is divided into two branches and connected to the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe respectively; the buffer bin, the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe are connected to a compressed air storage tank through a compressed air pipeline, and the compressed air storage tank is connected to an air compressor.
[0009] Through the arrangement of the ash conveying pipeline and the compressed air system, the bed material particles in the hearths of the two circulating fluidized bed boilers can be exchanged with each other; under the premise that one circulating fluidized bed boiler is in normal operation, the system can rapidly heat the solid particles in the other circulating fluidized bed boiler, so that the function of rapid start and rapid load regulation is realized.
[0010] Further, the buffer bin and the hearth of the corresponding circulating fluidized bed boiler are connected through a feeding pipeline, the interface position of the feeding pipeline and the hearth is higher than the lower contraction section of the hearth, and a feeding plug-in door is arranged on the feeding pipeline.
[0011] Further, the interface position of the feeding pipeline and the buffer bin is slightly lower than the interface position of the feeding pipeline and the hearth, so that the material can flow smoothly, and the feeding pipeline is inclined from the side of the hearth to the side of the buffer bin.
[0012] Further, the bottom of the buffer bin is connected to the material outlet pipeline, a material outlet plug-in door is arranged on the material outlet pipeline close to the outlet of the buffer bin, and the lower part of the buffer bin is in a contraction shape, so that the bed material can flow out.
[0013] Further, one control material plug-in door is arranged on each branch of the material outlet pipeline close to the first material conveying main pipe or the second material conveying main pipe.
[0014] Further, the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe are arranged at the bottom of the hearth of the circulating fluidized bed boiler, and the connection points of the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe and the hearth are lower than the bottom end of the buffer bin.
[0015] Further, a material conveying plug-in door is arranged near the connection points of the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe and each hearth.
[0016] Further, the compressed air tank is connected with several compressed air pipes, and a total valve is arranged on each compressed air pipe; each compressed air pipe has three branches, and is connected to the buffer bin, the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe; and an air valve is arranged on each branch.
[0017] Further, according to the need of material conveying, the compressed air pipe can be provided with more branches, and is connected to multiple positions of the buffer bin, the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe.
[0018] Further, when the number n of the circulating fluidized bed boilers is greater than 2, the first material conveying main pipe and the second material conveying main pipe each have n branches, and each branch is connected to the hearth of one circulating fluidized bed boiler.
[0019] The circulating fluidized bed boiler storage type high-temperature circulating ash hearth heating method uses the above heating system, and comprises the following steps: firstly, high-temperature material in the hearth of a normally running circulating fluidized bed boiler is transported under the action of compressed air, sequentially passes through the feeding pipe matched with the boiler, the buffer bin, the discharging pipe, enters the hearth of a circulating fluidized bed boiler to be started through the first material conveying main pipe, and the solid particle bed material in the hearth is rapidly heated; then low-temperature material in the hearth of the circulating fluidized bed boiler to be started sequentially passes through the feeding pipe matched with the boiler, the buffer bin, the discharging pipe, enters the hearth of the normally running circulating fluidized bed boiler through the second material conveying main pipe; at this time, the coal supply amount of the normally running circulating fluidized bed boiler is increased, the temperature in the hearth is kept unchanged, and other boilers are started at the same time.
[0020] After the boiler is normally running, when any circulating fluidized bed boiler in the system needs to rapidly increase the load, the operation steps are the same as those of the auxiliary boiler rapid starting; when any circulating fluidized bed boiler in the system needs to rapidly decrease the load, the circulating ash is sent into the matched buffer bin, and then the boiler load decreasing speed can be increased.
[0021] The present application has the advantages and positive effects that:
[0022] 1. The present application uses the high-temperature bed material in the running circulating fluidized bed boiler to heat the circulating fluidized bed boiler to be started, can rapidly increase the bed material temperature in the hearth of the boiler to be started, makes the bed material reach the ignition condition, and then increases the boiler starting speed. Assuming that the bed material flow is 500 kg / s, the bed material temperature can reach 600 DEG C in 10 minutes, meets the combustion condition, and the starting time of the original equipment can be reduced by 80%.
[0023] 2. For boilers that provide high-temperature bed material, appropriately increasing the amount of coal and returning the cold bed material from the adjacent boiler can ensure that the boiler output is not reduced. The bed material in the boiler to be started is equivalent to absorbing the heat of the coal in the adjacent boiler to raise its temperature. Compared with the traditional air duct burner burning oil or natural gas to raise the bed material temperature, tens of thousands of yuan can be saved in one start-up.
[0024] 3. This invention utilizes a buffer silo to store high-temperature bed material during boiler operation, which can effectively reduce the radiation effect of gas-solid two-phase flow convection in the furnace, allowing the boiler load to drop rapidly. The rapid start-up and rapid load reduction of the boiler are beneficial to grid regulation. Against the backdrop of the continuous increase in wind and solar power generation, it can improve the flexibility of thermal power, which is of great significance for achieving the strategic goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.
[0025] 4. During the heat exchange process of the water-cooled walls and convective heating surfaces inside the furnace, the particles participating in the circulation have a significant impact on the heat transfer coefficient. The interface between the discharge pipe and the furnace in this invention is higher than the lower contraction section of the furnace, which can collect smaller solid particles carried by the gas to the upper part of the furnace that participate in the circulation. Meanwhile, larger particles that cannot participate in the circulation at the bottom of the furnace cannot enter the adjacent furnace conveying system, thus allowing for faster load adjustment.

[0039] Working principle:
[0040] When the system is not working, it is assumed that the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 is in normal operation and the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 is to be started, at this time, all the plug-in doors and valves are in the closed state, so as to ensure that the air pressure in the compressed air storage tank 4 is greater than 0.6Mpa.
[0041] Firstly, the high-temperature material in the first furnace 10 of the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 enters the second furnace 20 of the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 in sequence through the first feeding pipeline 11, the first buffer bin 12, the first discharging pipeline 13 and the first feeding main pipe 5. The first feeding plug-in door 101 on the first feeding pipeline 11, the first control plug-in door 105 on the branch connecting the first discharging pipeline 13 and the first feeding main pipe 5, and the third feeding plug-in door 203 on the first feeding main pipe 5 close to the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 are opened. The valves on the first compressed air pipeline 14 are opened. At this time, the high-temperature circulating material in the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 continuously enters the first buffer bin 12, and then enters the first discharging pipeline 13 and the first feeding main pipe 5 in sequence through the first buffer bin 12, and finally enters the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2, so that the solid particle bed material in the second furnace 20 of the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 is rapidly heated.
[0042] At the same time, the second feeding plug-in door 201, the second discharging plug-in door 202, the fourth control plug-in door 206 and the second feeding plug-in door 104 are opened, and the valves on the second compressed air pipeline 25 are opened. The low-temperature material in the second furnace 20 of the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 enters the first furnace 10 of the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 in sequence through the second feeding pipeline 21, the second buffer bin 22, the second discharging pipeline 23 and the second feeding main pipe 6. At this time, the coal supply of the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 is appropriately increased, and the temperature in the first furnace 10 is kept unchanged.
[0043] When the first circulating fluidized bed boiler 1 is in normal operation and the second circulating fluidized bed boiler 2 needs to rapidly increase the load, the working principle is the same as that of the auxiliary boiler rapid start.
[0044] When any one of the boilers needs to reduce load rapidly, all the plug doors and valves are in the closed state, the first feeding plug door 101 on the first feeding pipeline 11 or the second feeding plug door 201 on the second feeding pipeline 21 is opened, and the circulating ash is allowed to enter the first buffer bin 12 or the second buffer bin 22, so that the speed of reducing the load of the boiler can be improved.

These all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
