Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of waste heat recovery, and particularly to an integrated device for flue gas de - whitening, boiler and waste heat recovery. Background Art
[0002] Since the high - temperature flue gas discharged from small and medium - sized gas boilers in civil and industrial buildings is not subjected to waste heat recovery, a large amount of high - grade energy is wasted. At the same time, the high - temperature flue gas contains a large amount of water vapor. During the process of discharging to the outside, the water vapor in the flue gas will gradually condense into fog, resulting in the phenomenon of "white smoke" coming out of the chimney. This not only affects the appearance but also causes problems such as rain and mist near the chimney and the risk of icing on the ground. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Embodiments of the present invention provide an integrated device for flue gas de - whitening, boiler and waste heat recovery, which recovers the waste heat of the flue, reduces the discharge temperature of the flue gas to below 20°C, recovers the latent heat and sensible heat in the flue gas, and reduces carbon emissions and energy waste.
[0004] To achieve the above - mentioned purpose, the embodiments of the present invention adopt the following technical solutions:
[0005] On the one hand, a flue gas de - whitening device is provided, including: an economizer and a condensation heat recovery device installed in the flue;
[0006] When the boiler connected to the flue burns, flue gas is generated and the flue gas flows through the flue;
[0007] The economizer is installed closer to the boiler than the condensation heat recovery device;
[0008] The flue gas exchanges heat with the economizer first and then with the condensation heat recovery device in the flue.
[0009] For the commercially available vacuum gas boiler, the flue gas is reduced from about 180°C to about 60°C after heat exchange with the economizer, and the flue gas is reduced from 60°C to 20°C after passing through the condensation heat recovery device. When the flue gas temperature sensor on the boiler exhaust pipe monitors that the flue gas is higher than 20°C, the flue gas temperature sensor will transmit the temperature signal to the PLC controller. The PLC controller will judge whether the temperature signal is higher than 20°C. If it exceeds 20°C, the PLC controller will output an electrical signal to increase the rotational speed of the compressor motor, thereby increasing the flow rate of the refrigerant in the compressor, and thus strengthening the heat exchange capacity of the condensation heat recovery device, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the flue gas temperature to 20°C.
[0010] Based on one aspect, in some embodiments, it further includes: a heat medium flow channel installed on the outer peripheral wall of the flue, and the heat medium in the heat medium flow channel exchanges heat with the flue gas.
[0011] Based on one aspect, in some embodiments, the heat medium flow channel extends along the flue from the boiler until it extends beyond the condensation heat recovery device.
[0012] For a 1-ton gas boiler with a capacity of 700 Kw, the thermal efficiency of a general gas boiler is about 90%, and the calorific value of natural gas is about 33,000 KJ / Nm 3 , and the hourly consumption of natural gas is about 84.6 Nm 3 / h, the hourly flue gas emission is about 1,060 m 3 / h, the flue gas density is about 1.02 kg / m 3 , the specific heat capacity of the flue gas at constant pressure is about 1.133 KJ / (kg·°C), and the latent heat value of water vapor in the flue gas is about 2,368 KJ / kg. Therefore, in the present invention, the heat medium absorbs about 700 Kw of heat from the flue; the temperature of the flue gas is reduced from about 180 °C to about 60 °C through the economizer. At this time, since the partial pressure of water vapor in the flue gas does not reach the saturation state, no water vapor condensation occurs, so the economizer only absorbs the sensible heat of the flue gas. At this time, the economizer absorbs about 40.6 Kw of heat from the flue; the temperature of the flue gas is reduced from about 60 °C to about 20 °C through the condensing heat recovery device. Since the partial pressure of water vapor in the flue gas reaches the saturation state at 55.4 °C, water vapor condensation occurs in the flue gas at 55.4 °C. Therefore, the condensing heat recovery device absorbs both the sensible heat and the latent heat of the flue gas. The condensing heat recovery device absorbs about 75.6 Kw of heat from the flue, and the condensation water volume of the condensing heat recovery device is about 94.4 kg / h. From the above calculations, it can be seen that the proportions of the heat medium, the economizer, and the condensing heat recovery device in digesting the heat from the flue are 85.76%, 4.97%, and 9.27% respectively. According to this proportion, it can be found that the economizer only recovers the sensible heat of the flue gas and does not eliminate the water vapor in the flue gas, while the heat recovery amount of the condensing heat recovery device is almost twice that of the economizer, and the water vapor in the flue gas is deeply condensed, making the proportion of water vapor in the flue gas extremely small, thus realizing the "de-white" effect during the emission of the flue gas to the external environment.
[0013] On the one hand, in some embodiments, the heat medium flow channel is communicated with the heat medium chamber inside the boiler;
[0014] The heat medium flows in the heat medium chamber and the heat medium flow channel.
[0015] On the one hand, in some embodiments, it further includes: a compressor and a heat exchanger installed close to the flue;
[0016] Refrigerant flows on one side of the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger, the compressor, and the condensing heat recovery device are interconnected, and the refrigerant circulates among the heat exchanger, the compressor, and the condensing heat recovery device. The refrigerant exchanges heat with the flue gas in the condensing heat recovery device;
[0017] Domestic water flows on the other side of the heat exchanger, and the other side of the heat exchanger is also connected to the energy saver. After the domestic water exchanges heat with the refrigerant once in the heat exchanger, it enters the energy saver to exchange heat with the flue gas in the flue for the second time.
[0018] On the other hand, a boiler and waste heat recovery integrated device is provided, including: a boiler, a flue, and a waste heat recovery device. The waste heat recovery device is a flue gas dewhiting device of the above solution;
[0019] The boiler includes a combustion chamber, a heat medium chamber, and a steam chamber. The combustion chamber is connected to the flue. The flue gas generated by burning fuel in the combustion chamber exchanges heat with the heat medium in the heat medium chamber once and then enters the flue. The flue gas exchanges heat with the energy saver first and then with the condensation heat recovery device in the flue;
[0020] While the heat medium in the heat medium chamber exchanges heat with the flue gas, it also exchanges heat with the heat generated by the combustion of the fuel in the combustion chamber.
[0021] Based on the other hand, in some embodiments, the boiler further includes a blower;
[0022] The air duct of the blower is connected to the combustion chamber.
[0023] Based on the other hand, in some embodiments, the boiler and waste heat recovery integrated device further includes a tubular heat exchange module;
[0024] The steam chamber is connected to the heat medium chamber;
[0025] The tubular heat exchange module is installed in the steam chamber, and the water medium flowing in the tubular heat exchange module exchanges heat with the hot steam in the steam chamber.
[0026] Based on the other hand, in some embodiments, natural gas and air enter the combustion chamber through the blower to burn and generate high-temperature flue gas;
[0027] The high-temperature flue gas exchanges heat with the hot water in the heat medium chamber, and the hot water absorbs heat to form high-temperature steam;
[0028] The high-temperature steam enters the steam chamber and heats the circulating hot water in the tubular heat exchange module;
[0029] After the high-temperature steam releases heat, it forms condensed water and enters the heat medium chamber to continue exchanging heat with the high-temperature flue gas.
[0030] Based on the other hand, in some embodiments, the tubular heat exchange module includes a first tubular heat exchanger and a second tubular heat exchanger;
[0031] The first tubular heat exchanger and the second tubular heat exchanger are installed in parallel in the steam chamber;
[0032] The second tubular heat exchanger is connected to the other side of the heat exchanger of the flue gas dewhiting device;
[0033] The temperature of the hot water flowing out of the second tubular heat exchanger is higher than that of the hot water flowing out of the first tubular heat exchanger.
[0034] On the other hand, in some embodiments, heating water flows in the first tubular heat exchanger, and domestic water flows in the second tubular heat exchanger;
[0035] The temperature of the heating water flowing out of the first tubular heat exchanger is lower than that of the domestic water flowing out of the second tubular heat exchanger;
[0036] The heating water exchanges heat with high-temperature steam in the first tubular heat exchanger;
[0037] After the domestic water exchanges heat with the refrigerant once in the heat exchanger, it enters the economizer of the flue gas dewhitening device; after the domestic water exchanges heat with the flue gas in the economizer for the second time, it enters the second tubular heat exchanger; the domestic water exchanges heat with high-temperature steam three times in the second tubular heat exchanger.

[0047] Currently, there is no mature technology for recovering the waste heat of flue gas from small and medium-sized gas boilers and achieving the whitening of flue gas. With the continuous improvement of the country's energy conservation and emission reduction requirements and the continuous improvement of scientific and technological levels, the technology of using heat pumps for efficient recovery of flue gas waste heat can achieve deep recovery of the sensible heat and latent heat of the flue gas of natural gas boilers. At the same time, the process of whitening the flue gas before emission is completed during the cooling and condensation process of flue gas heat recovery.

[0068] In practical applications, the waste heat recovery device of the present disclosure embodiment includes a compressor 8, a plate heat exchanger 25, an electronic expansion valve 7, and a condensation heat recovery device 9. Among them, the compressor 8, the plate heat exchanger 25, and the electronic expansion valve 7 are all arranged in the waste heat recovery device chamber 26 and integrated with a vacuum gas boiler. After the flue gas passes through the condensation heat recovery device 9, the medium temperature of about 60 °C is reduced to a low temperature of about 20 °C, and the sensible heat and latent heat of the flue gas are deeply recovered. The refrigerant used in the flue gas waste heat recovery device is R134a, which is a new type of environmentally friendly refrigerant that does not damage the ozone layer and has the characteristics of stability, non-toxicity, and high refrigeration efficiency. Through calculation, when the boiler is within 3 tons of steam, it is more economical to select a variable frequency scroll compressor; when the boiler is between 3 and 10 tons of steam, it is more economical to select a variable frequency screw compressor. Pressure gauges (20, 24) and thermometers (21, 23) are arranged at the inlet and outlet of the compressor 8 to monitor the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant at the inlet and outlet of the compressor 8, prevent the compressor 8 from being damaged due to excessive refrigerant pressure and temperature, and a flow meter 19 is arranged at the inlet of the compressor 8 to monitor the real-time flow rate of the refrigerant. The condensation heat recovery device 9 is a stainless steel finned tube heat exchanger, which is treated with an anti-corrosion and heat-conducting ceramic coating on the surface, and the inside of the first flue 11 is treated with a corrosion-resistant coating. The structural parameters of the condensation heat recovery device 9 are: the finned tube 44 has a tube pitch of 38 mm, a row pitch of 32 mm, an outer diameter of the finned tube 44 of 15.5 mm, a wall thickness of the finned tube 44 of 0.4 mm, a thickness of the fin 43 of 0.11 mm, a fin 43 spacing of 3.2 mm, and the finned tubes 44 are arranged in an isosceles or equilateral cross arrangement (enhancing the internal turbulence of the flue gas to strengthen heat transfer), and the inlet and outlet of the finned tubes 44 are connected by a connecting pipe 45. The condensation heat recovery device 9 is arranged in the first flue 11 and as close to the compressor 8 as possible to avoid the temperature of the refrigerant entering the compressor 8 being too high. In addition, the cross-section of the condensation heat recovery device 9 is made as large as possible and the length is made as short as possible to prevent the flue gas pressure drop from being too large and causing problems with difficult exhaust. A flue gas temperature sensor 10 is arranged at the rear of the condensation heat recovery device 9 to transmit the exhaust gas temperature signal to the PLC controller 22, and the PLC controller 22 controls the motor speed of the compressor 8 according to the exhaust gas temperature signal, thereby adjusting the refrigerant flow rate to control the exhaust gas temperature at about 20 °C. The flue 13, the fixed support 17, and the round umbrella-shaped wind cap 18 form a flue gas discharge device, and a thermal expansion gap is left between the conical cover 16 and the roof panel 15 for rain shielding.
[0069] The embodiment of the present disclosure reduces the discharge temperature of the flue gas to below 20 °C, deeply recovers the latent heat and sensible heat in the flue gas, and integrates the gas boiler with the waste heat recovery heat pump, making the equipment compact, light in structure, small in floor area, and convenient for modular selection. In addition, it can also improve the energy utilization efficiency, reduce the consumption of natural gas, alleviate the contradiction between the supply and demand of natural gas in China, recover a considerable amount of moisture, reduce the emission of environmental pollutants, and achieve the three goals of energy conservation, water conservation, and emission reduction.
