Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of computer-aided design technology, specifically relating to a preheater intelligent design method and system based on BIM modeling optimization. Background Technology
[0002] The preheater is a crucial component of a cement production line. During the design process, the speed and accuracy of the 3D modeling of the preheater directly impact the subsequent construction cycle. Cement clinker production lines typically involve numerous preheater units across multiple floor plans, resulting in a substantial workload for modeling.
[0003] Currently, in BIM-based 3D design, the parametric drawing of individual components such as cyclones and ducts in preheaters often involves setting multiple input parameters. These are drawn one by one in a family environment and then loaded into the project for assembly. Furthermore, the parameters between families are not correlated. For example, the inlet size of a cyclone and the outlet size of a corresponding duct are equal, but these parameters need to be set in separate families, resulting in a lot of repetitive work. In addition, the assembly of components such as cyclones, ducts, and material pipes in the preheater is highly interconnected. During the design process, if one component changes, multiple connected components also need to be changed simultaneously. However, in current 3D design, moving one component of the preheater or adjusting the size of one component does not allow other related components to move or change size simultaneously. This requires manual reconnection or adjustment of the equipment shape, which is time-consuming and inefficient.
[0004] In summary, the problems with existing technologies are:
[0005] (1) When drawing individual equipment families in the preheater using parametric drawing, many parameters need to be input, and the parameters between different types of families are not associated, resulting in a lot of repetitive work.
[0006] (2) During the preheater assembly process, after modifying one piece of equipment, other related equipment need to be readjusted manually, which makes it impossible to quickly obtain the optimal design solution, which takes a long time and results in low design efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the known art: The present invention develops and designs an intelligent design method and system for a preheater based on BIM modeling optimization. By developing a preheater design plug-in, the tower of the preheater can be quickly generated, single equipment can be called, and different forms of material pipes can be automatically generated, realizing digital design and reducing the workload of designers. By associating the parameters between the single equipment of the preheater, the number of parameter inputs in the process of drawing parametric families is reduced, and the rapid construction of a single model is realized, reducing repetitive work. By establishing a database of preheater single equipment families, the rapid call of preheater models for cement production lines of different specifications can be realized. By establishing the connection relationship of connected equipment, the linkage adjustment function is realized, the optimal design scheme is quickly obtained, and the design efficiency is improved.

[0106] To make the above-mentioned objectives, control system design, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
[0107] This invention uses BIM-based modeling of a six-stage preheater as an example.
[0108] The technical solution of this invention is as follows:
[0109] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a preheater intelligent design method based on BIM modeling optimization includes the following steps:
[0110] S1: Create a parametric family database for preheater equipment based on the Revit platform.
[0111] S1.1: The preheater equipment is divided into smoke chamber 1, decomposition furnace 2, cyclone separator, and air duct;
[0112] S1.2: Create parametric families of smoke chamber 1, decomposition furnace 2, cyclone duct, and air duct based on the Revit platform. The parametric relationships are established in the family environment or imported through a CSV data file. The parameter information of the equipment family can be modified in the Revit working environment.
[0113] To more clearly describe the parametric relationships of the cyclone, we will use C5 cyclone 4 (see...) Figure 4 , Figure 5As an example: C5 cyclone 4 includes a volute 401, a column 402, a cone 403, and an inner cylinder 404. The spiral lines of the volute 401 are tangent to each other in sequence. The eccentricity of the arc segment R2 is e1, and the eccentricity of the arc segment R3 is e2. When e2 = 0, the volute is a double-centered large volute. When e2 > 0, the volute is a triple-centered large volute. The volute 401 can be either a double-centered large volute or a triple-centered large volute. The cone 403 can be either a straight cone or a skewed cone. The inlet 406 (cyclone air inlet) and the inner cylinder outlet 405 (air outlet) are located on the volute 401, and the discharge port 407 is located below the cone 403.
[0114] The establishment of the cyclone duct parameter family is based on:
[0115] The total height H, the inner cylinder diameter d (404 stainless steel), the eccentricity e1, and the eccentricity e2 are directly proportional to the column diameter D, with the following ratios: H / D = 2-3.2, d / D = 0.4-0.6, e1 / D = 0.06-0.15, and e2 / D = 0-0.3.
[0116] Entrance 406 height a: In the formula, τ = 0.15-0.35, α is the horizontal angle of the entrance, which is generally taken as 50°, and m = 0.3-0.6;
[0117] The width b of the top edge of the inlet 406 and the height s of the inner cylinder 404 are directly proportional to the height a of the inlet 406, with the ratios b / a = 0.3-0.6 and s / a = 0.5-1.5.
[0118] The width of the bottom edge of entrance 406 is c: c = b - 2 × e1 - e2;
[0119] Height H of the inclined section of the volute 401 1-2 H 1-2 = (ac)×tanα
[0120] Height H of the straight section of the volute 401 1-1 H 1-1 =aH 1-2 ;
[0121] Cone 403 height H3: In the formula, β is the angle between the inclined plane of the cone and the horizontal, which is generally taken as ≥70°; The diameter of the lower part of the cone is determined based on the amount of raw material; if it is a skewed cone (such as...). Figure 6 The angle between the axis of the skewed cone and the horizontal is not less than 60° (as shown in the diagrams for C6 cyclone 3 and C4 cyclone 5).
[0122] Height H2 of column 402: H2 = Ha - H3;
[0123] Based on the above dimensional relationships, input the diameter D of the cyclone cylinder and the diameter of the lower part of the cone in the family creation environment. With all modeling dimensions available, a 3D model of the cyclone can be quickly created.
[0124] The decomposition furnace 2 includes a cone, an upward pipe 201, a downward pipe 202, a connecting pipe, and a constriction. The air inlet is located below the cone and is connected to the air outlet of the smoke chamber 1. The air outlet is located on the downward pipe 202 and is connected to the air inlet of the bottom cyclone separator C6. The upward pipe 201 has multiple material distribution boxes 604. The upward and downward pipes are connected by a connecting pipe, which is a gooseneck pipe or a slanted section interface.
[0125] The parameter family of decomposer 2 is established based on the following: the size of the decomposer outlet is equal to that of the C6 cyclone 3 inlet; the diameter d1 of the decomposer 2 inlet is equal to that of the smoke chamber 1 outlet. The position of the decomposer constriction center is related to the floor elevation of the preheater tower, and the decomposer constriction center is located 1-3m below the floor level.
[0126] The heights of the ascending pipe 201 and descending pipe 202 of the decomposition furnace are open parameters and can be adjusted during the preheater construction process in the family creation environment. The total volume of the decomposition furnace must meet the requirement that the flue gas residence time is >6s.
[0127] By inputting the upward pipe D1, downward pipe D2, and constriction diameter d2 of the decomposition furnace, the decomposition furnace model can be obtained.
[0128] To more clearly describe the parametric relationships of the ductwork, C6-C5 ductwork 6 (see...) Figure 6 As an example: Duct 6 includes a reducing section 601, a column 602, and an inclined section 603. The air inlet 606 is located below the reducing section 601 and is connected to the air outlet of the next-stage cyclone separator. The air outlet 605 is located on the inclined section 603 and is connected to the air inlet of the previous-stage cyclone separator. The material distribution box 604 is located on the column 602.
[0129] The establishment of the duct parameter family is based on the following: the diameter of the duct inlet 606 is equal to the diameter d of the inner cylinder of the next stage cyclone; the size of the duct outlet 605 is consistent with the size of the inlet of the previous stage cyclone; the material distribution box 604 is 1 to 2 m away from the bottom of the duct at a distance h2, and can rotate 360° along the duct column.
[0130] The duct height h is the height difference between the upper and lower cyclone volute positions, and the outlet duct inclined section length l is the horizontal vertical length from the center of the lower cyclone volute to the outlet of the upper cyclone.
[0131] The duct height h and the length of the inclined section of the outlet duct l are open parameters that can be automatically adjusted according to the position of the cyclone during the preheater construction process.
[0132] S1.3: Parameterized families are automatically coded and bound to corresponding parameters. Each code is labeled with the family name, specifications, and location information. The location information for the smoke chamber, decomposer, and duct is the center position of the air inlet, and the location information for the cyclone separator is the center position of the top of the volute. The location information can be modified in the Revit working environment.
[0133] S1.4: Establish a family database. The database can be categorized according to production line specifications for smoke chamber 1, decomposition furnace 2, cyclone separator, and air duct, facilitating user searching and retrieval. Users can also update the family database in real time.
[0134] S2: Calculate the specifications of the preheater unit and the tower size based on the production line scale, raw material composition, weather conditions and other conditions.
[0135] The specifications of a single piece of equipment refer to its diameter. The tower dimensions include length, width, height, and the elevation of each floor.
[0136] S3: Enter the tower dimensions in the preheater design plugin to generate the preheater tower;
[0137] The preheater design plugin is embedded into the Revit menu via an API interface. The plugin includes a preheater tower generation module. The main functions of this module are: the user inputs the tower's length A, width B, and floor elevations; the module generates a grid and the tower itself. There are four grids in the length direction (A, B, C, D) and three grids in the width direction (1, 2, 3). The intersection of grid A and grid 1 is at point (0,0,0). The tower includes floor slabs and columns 11. Floor slabs are generated at each floor elevation, with length and width matching the input tower dimensions. Columns 11 are generated at the grid intersections.
[0138] S4: Based on the preheater design plugin, call the preheater series individual equipment from the family library;
[0139] The preheater design plugin also includes a family library module. The main function of the family library module is to allow users to input the production line scale, select the preheater type and the type of individual equipment, and then call the preheater equipment.
[0140] Preheater types include 3-7 stage preheaters, single-row preheaters, and double-row preheaters. After entering the preheater type, the interface will display the corresponding codes for multiple cyclones, ducts, decomposition furnaces, and smoke chambers. The location information in the codes can be entered by the user; the user needs to enter the location information for smoke chamber 1 and the bottom cyclone (C6 cyclone 3). The user can select one or more devices to be imported within the interface.
[0141] In this embodiment, the preheater is a 6-stage double-row preheater. The first-stage cyclone separator consists of four individual cyclone separators, while the other stages each consist of two individual cyclone separators. The cyclone separator is a three-core large volute, and the ascending and descending pipes of the decomposition furnace are connected by an inclined section.
[0142] S5: Calculate the cyclone separation efficiency using simulation software, and optimize the cyclone structure based on the feedback separation efficiency;
[0143] CPFD software is preferred for simulation calculations. A virtual model based on production information (raw material composition, fineness) and the cyclone structure is established in CPFD software; the cyclone structure can be retrieved from a parametric family database. The separation efficiency of the cyclone can be obtained through simulation calculations. If the cumulative separation efficiency of the cyclone is less than 90%, the height of the bottom cyclone (C6 cyclone 3) is increased first, and the calculation is repeated; if the efficiency is still less than 90%, the height of the next layer cyclone (C5 cyclone 4) is increased, and the calculation is repeated; and so on. When the cumulative separation efficiency is less than 90%, the total height H1 = H*δ from the bottom cyclone (C6 cyclone 3) to the top cyclone is increased sequentially, where δ is between 1.05 and 1.15. If the separation efficiency still does not reach 90% after one round of modifications to the total height of the cyclone from the bottom to the top, a second round of modifications is performed, with a maximum of two rounds of modifications.

The air inlet of decomposition furnace 2 is directly connected to the air outlet of smoke chamber 1; the air outlet of decomposition furnace 2 is tangentially connected to the air inlet of cyclone separator 3 (C6). The air inlet of duct C6-C5 (C6-C5) is automatically connected to the air outlet of the next-level cyclone separator 3 (C6), and its air outlet is connected to the previous-level cyclone separator 4 (C5). The air inlet of cyclone separator 4 (C5) and the air outlet of duct C6-C5 (C6-C5) are tangentially connected, and the length l of the C6-C5 air duct outlet is automatically adjusted according to the position of the air inlet of cyclone separator 4 (C5). The air inlet of duct C5-C4 (C5-C4) is automatically connected to the air outlet of the next-level cyclone separator 4 (C5), and its air outlet is connected to the previous-level cyclone separator 5 (C4). The air inlet of cyclone separator 5 (C4) and the air outlet of duct C5-C4 (C5-C4) are tangentially connected. Similarly, the air inlets of each duct are automatically connected to the air outlets of the next cyclone separator, and the air outlets are automatically connected to the air inlets of the previous cyclone separator. The air inlets of the cyclone separator and the air outlets of the ducts are connected tangentially. The length of the air outlet duct is automatically adjusted according to the position of the air inlet of the cyclone separator, and the height of the duct is automatically adjusted according to the position of the volutes of the upper and lower cyclone separators.
[0147] Each cyclone separator is located on the floor plane, and the distance h1 between the bottom of the cyclone separator column and the floor plane is greater than 1200mm. If the cyclone separator cone collides with the duct, the cone will be adjusted to be a tilted cone. During the adjustment process, the tilted cone can rotate while the volute does not rotate. In the figure, the cones of cyclone separator 5 (C4) and cyclone separator 3 (C6) are tilted cones.
[0148] The distance between any two devices must be greater than 200mm, and the distance between the device and the edge of the tower must be greater than 350mm.
[0149] S7: Automatically optimizes and generates material pipes based on preheater design plug-in.
[0150] The preheater design plugin also includes a material tube generation module. The main function of the material tube generation module is to allow users to select the outlet and inlet in the generated preheater and automatically generate the material tube according to the principle of minimum total length. After generation, the material tube can be adjusted according to the collision situation.
[0151] The specific process is as follows: First, select the type of material tube in the plugin, and then select the lower end outlet and inlet of the cyclone in the Revit working environment respectively. The material tube is automatically generated. The diameter of the material tube is equal to the diameter of the lower end outlet of the cyclone and the angle between the material tube and the horizontal is not less than 60°.

[0170] The establishment of the cyclone parameter family in step S1.2 is based on:
[0171] Figure 4 , Figure 5 This is a parameterized schematic diagram of the C5 cyclone 4.
[0172] The total height H, the inner cylinder diameter d (404 stainless steel), the eccentricity e1, and the eccentricity e2 are directly proportional to the column diameter D, with the following ratios: H / D = 2-3.2, d / D = 0.4-0.6, e1 / D = 0.06-0.15, and e2 / D = 0-0.3.
[0173] Entrance 406 height a: In the formula, τ = 0.15-0.35, α is the horizontal angle of the entrance, which is generally taken as 50°, and m = 0.3-0.6;
[0174] The width b of the top edge of the inlet 406 and the height s of the inner cylinder 404 are directly proportional to the height a of the inlet 406, with the ratios b / a = 0.3-0.6 and s / a = 0.5-1.5.
[0175] The width of the bottom edge of entrance 406 is c: c = b - 2 × e1 - e2;
[0176] Height H of the inclined section of the volute 401 1-2 H 1-2 = (ac)×tanα
[0177] Height H of the straight section of the volute 401 1-1 H 1-1 =aH 1-2 ;
[0178] Cone 403 height H3: In the formula, β is the angle between the inclined plane of the cone and the horizontal, which is generally taken as ≥70°; The diameter of the lower part of the cone is determined based on the amount of raw material; if it is a skewed cone (such as...). Figure 6 The angle between the axis of the skewed cone and the horizontal is not less than 60° (as shown in the diagrams for C6 cyclone 3 and C4 cyclone 5).
[0179] Height H2 of column 402: H2 = Ha - H3;
[0180] Based on the above dimensional relationships, input the diameter D of the cyclone cylinder and the diameter of the lower part of the cone. With all modeling dimensions available, you can quickly build a 3D model of a cyclone.
[0181] Based on the above dimensional relationships, input the diameter D of the cyclone cylinder and the diameter of the lower part of the cone. With all modeling dimensions available, you can quickly build a 3D model of a cyclone.
[0182] The establishment of the decomposer parameter family in step S1.2 is based on the following: the size of the decomposer outlet is equal to that of the bottom cyclone inlet; the diameter d1 of the decomposer inlet is equal to that of the flue gas outlet. The position of the decomposer constriction center is related to the floor elevation of the preheater tower, and the decomposer constriction center is located 1-3m below the floor.
[0183] The heights of the ascending and descending pipes of the decomposition furnace are open parameters and can be adjusted during the construction of the preheater.
[0184] The basis for establishing the duct parameter family in step S1.2 is: Figure 6 This is a parametric schematic diagram of duct C6-C5. The diameter of the duct inlet 606 is equal to the inner diameter d of the next stage cyclone 3 (C6); the size of the duct outlet 605 is the same as the size of the inlet (i.e., cyclone inlet) of the previous stage cyclone 4 (C5); the material distribution box 604 is 1-2m from the bottom of the duct and can rotate 360° along the duct column.
[0185] The duct height h and the length l of the inclined section 603 of the outlet duct are open parameters that can be automatically adjusted according to the position of the cyclone during the preheater construction process.

After generation, it can be adjusted according to the collision situation.
[0190] In the module, preheater types include 3-7 stage preheaters, single-row preheaters, and double-row preheaters. After inputting the preheater type, the interface will display the corresponding codes for multiple cyclones, ducts, decomposition furnaces, and smoke chambers.

The length and direction of the inclined section of the air outlet duct are automatically adjusted according to the position of the air inlet of the cyclone separator, and the height of the air duct is automatically adjusted according to the position of the volutes of the upper and lower cyclone separators.
[0193] Each level of cyclone is located on the floor plane, and the bottom of the cyclone column is more than 1200mm away from the floor plane. If the cyclone cone collides with the air duct, the cone will be adjusted to be a tilted cone. During the adjustment process, the tilted cone can rotate while the volute does not rotate.
[0194] The distance between any two devices must be greater than 200mm, and the distance between the devices and the edge of the tower must be greater than 350mm.
[0195] The specific process of generating the material tube in the assembly module is as follows: First, select the type of material tube, and then select the discharge port and inlet at the lower end of the cyclone in the preheater construction environment. The material tube is automatically generated based on the principle of minimum total length. The diameter of the material tube is equal to the diameter of the discharge port at the lower end of the cyclone and the angle between the material tube and the horizontal is not less than 60°.
