DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, further detailed description will be given below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the related content, and are not a limitation of the present application.
[0035] Example 1
[0036] As Figures 1-5As shown, a sampling device for high-pressure industrial gas condensation and filtration includes a sampling probe 1. The sampling probe 1 includes a gas sampling head 12, a multi-stage filter element 13, a condensation device 14, a heat insulation layer 15, and a cooling device 16. The multi-stage filter element 13 is used to filter the sampled gas at different stages. One end of the multi-stage filter element 13 is connected to the gas sampling head 12 (this is a structure that facilitates the connection between the flange 11 and the sampling probe 1), and the other end of the multi-stage filter element 13 leads to the outside of the sampling probe 1. The condensation device 14 is disposed outside the multi-stage filter element 13, and the condensation device 14 has a condensation chamber 145 inside, which is separated from the inside of the multi-stage filter element 13. The heat insulation layer 15 is disposed outside the condensation device 14, and the cooling device 16 is connected to the condensation chamber 145 of the condensation device 14 through the heat insulation layer 15.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the multi-stage filter element 13 is fixedly disposed in the condensation device 14. The multi-stage filter element 13 includes: filter sheet 131, isolation column 132, steel wire cable 133 and filter hole 134.
[0038] A steel wire cable 133 is used to string together a number of filter discs 131, and an isolation column 132 is provided between adjacent filter discs 131 to separate adjacent filter discs 131.
[0039] Each filter element 131 is provided with a filter hole 134, and the number of filter holes 134 on each filter element 131 is arranged such that the farther the filter element 131 is from the gas sampling head 12, the fewer the number of filter holes 134 on the filter element 131.
[0040] like Figure 2 , 5 As shown, the condensing device 14 is fixedly installed inside the insulation layer 15. The condensing device 14 includes: a first tube 141 and a second tube 144. The first tube 141 is sleeved inside the second tube 144. The condensing chamber 145 is located between the first tube 141 and the second tube 144. A multi-stage filter element 13 is located inside the first tube 141 and is separated from the first tube 141. The outer wall of the second tube 144 is attached to the inner wall of the insulation layer 15. A spiral blade 143 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the first tube 141 and is located inside the condensing chamber 145.
[0041] A temperature measuring tube 135 (similar to a thermocouple) is provided at one end of the first tube 141. A wire is connected to the temperature measuring tube 135, which passes through the insulation layer 15 and extends out of the sampling probe 1. The temperature measuring tube 135 is connected to a temperature display instrument through the wire. The temperature measuring tube 135 leads to the rear end of the multi-stage filter element 13 (i.e., the end near the gas outlet device 136, used to measure the temperature of the gas after condensation and filtration).
[0042] The temperature measuring tube 135 is connected to the air outlet device 136, and the air outlet device 136 is connected to the purge tube 137 (purge can be carried by gas, and in some working conditions, it can also be carried by pressurized liquid to clean the multi-stage filter element 13). The purge tube 137 passes through the insulation layer 15 and leads to the outside of the sampling probe 1.
[0043] A cooling device 16 is provided outside the sampling probe 1. The cooling device 16 includes a cold air inlet pipe 142 and a compressed air inlet pipe 161. The cold air inlet pipe 142 and the compressed air inlet pipe 161 are connected. The cold air inlet pipe 142 passes through the insulation layer 15 and leads to the condensation chamber 145. The cooling device 16 also has a heat exhaust pipe 162. After the compressed air is cooled by the cooling device 16, the heat is discharged from the heat exhaust pipe 162. The cold air is introduced into the cold air inlet pipe 142 and finally into the condensation chamber 145.
[0044] The sampling probe 1 is placed vertically, and its two ends are sealed by the front cover 151 and the rear cover 152, respectively. The two ends of the lower gas sampling head 12 are fixedly connected to the front cover 151 and the flange 11, respectively. Optionally, the gas sampling head 12 has a calibration port 121, one end of the calibration tube 122 is connected to the calibration port 121, and the other end of the calibration tube 122 leads to the gas outlet device 136.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] The working process of this invention is as follows:
[0047] like Figure 2 , 5 As shown, the sampling gas enters the gas sampling head 12 through the inlet in the middle of the flange 11. After passing through the multi-stage filter element 13, the sampling gas passes through the rear temperature measuring tube 135 to ensure the effect of condensation filtration. Finally, the sampling gas flows out of the outside of the sampling probe 1 from the gas outlet device 136. At the same time, during the filtration process of the sampling gas through the multi-stage filter element 13, the cooling device 16 generates air cooling. The compressed air inlet pipe 161 transmits the generated cooling air through the cold air inlet pipe 142, which in turn introduces the cooling air into the condensing chamber 145. The condensing chamber 145 cools and condenses the sampling gas in the multi-stage filter element 13.
[0048] Preferably, when the sampling gas in the multi-stage filter element 13 is no longer filtered and cooled, the refrigeration device 16 stops working. Since the gas in the condensation chamber 145 absorbs the heat of the sampling gas in the multi-stage filter element 13, after the refrigeration device 16 stops working, the gas in the condensation chamber 145 is drawn and discharged from the heat exhaust pipe 162. The gas sampling head 12 can withstand a gas pressure of less than or equal to 4 MPa.
[0049] When the sampling gas in the multi-stage filter element 13 is no longer filtered and cooled, the purge pipe 137 is vented. The gas in the purge pipe 137 passes through the outlet device 136 and the multi-stage filter element 13 before reaching the flange 11. In this way, the purge pipe 137 sweeps out the impurities on the multi-stage filter element 13 through the flange 11.
[0050] Example 3
[0051] The sampling probe 1 can perform step-by-step condensation and filtration of high-pressure industrial gas, cool down the industrial gas inside the multi-stage filter element 13, and remove substances such as heavy oil and heavy hydrocarbons in the industrial gas that are easy to solidify at room temperature.
[0052] Specifically, the sampling probe 1 is provided with a multi-stage filter element 13, a condensation chamber 145 and a heat insulation layer 15 from the inside to the outside. Each filter element 131 is provided with a filter hole 134. The filter hole 134 is arranged such that the farther away from the gas sampling head 12, the fewer the number of filter holes 134 on the filter element 131. This allows the industrial gas to be filtered step by step in the multi-stage filter element 13. The sampling gas passes through the multi-stage filter element 13 from bottom to top and is condensed and filtered step by step on the filter elements 131 at different levels and temperatures in the multi-stage filter element 13. This ensures that the sampling gas is fully filtered. The filtered gas is sent to the gas outlet device 136 for output, while the cooled and condensed substance will flow back to the process pipeline through the flange 11.
[0053] To further explain, the gas outlet device 136 can be connected to the back-end equipment via the purge tube 137, which can place the temperature measuring tube 135 at the top of the multi-stage filter element 13. This facilitates setup and is used to detect the temperature of the sampled gas after passing through the multi-stage filter element 13, effectively preventing the temperature measuring tube 135 from being contaminated by industrial gases and also contributing to the pressure resistance design of the sampling device. The purge tube 137 is used for periodic external gas / liquid purging and cleaning of the filter element 131, which can keep the inside of the sampling probe 1 clean for a long time.
[0054] To further explain, in each filter element 131 of the multi-stage filter element 13, each filter element 131 absorbs heat from the sampled gas. The sampled gas closer to the gas sampling head 12 has a higher temperature, which causes the filter element 131 closer to the gas sampling head 12 to absorb more heat. After the sampled gas close to the temperature measuring tube 135 absorbs heat through each stage of filter element 131, the temperature of the sampled gas close to the temperature measuring tube 135 is significantly reduced. The temperature measuring tube 135 collects the temperature of the industrial gas after being filtered by the multi-stage filter element 13. A spiral blade 143 is installed inside the condensing chamber 145, and a refrigeration device 16 is connected to its outer side. An insulation layer 15 is installed on the outside of the condensing chamber 145. The refrigeration device 16 is connected to a high-performance vortex tube, i.e., a compressed air inlet pipe 161. The vortex tube uses compressed air as its power source, which is environmentally friendly and safe. The compressed air inlet enters the vortex tube, and the compressed air, after being cooled by the vortex tube, enters the condensing chamber 145 through the cold air inlet pipe 142. Heat is discharged from the heat exhaust pipe 162. Specifically, due to the action of the spiral blade 143, the entire large condensing chamber 145 is cooled by the spiral blade 143. The system is divided into multiple small condensing chambers 145, with each small condensing chamber 145 located between two adjacent spiral blades 143. The multi-stage filter element 13 has filter plates 131 with different levels and temperatures. Therefore, the different levels and temperatures of the filter plates 131 make each small condensing chamber 145 correspond to the temperature of each level of filter plate 131. The condensed gas enters and exits the condensing chamber 145 in a spiral rotation. The refrigeration device 16, combined with the spiral blades 143 and the insulation layer 15, can effectively ensure the heat exchange between the condensed gas and the industrial gas inside the condensing chamber 145.
[0055] To further explain, the insulation layer 15 is provided with a front cover 151 and a rear cover 152 at both ends. The insulation layer 15 wraps and fixes the condensation cavity 145. The side of the insulation layer 15 is also provided with through holes for pipe and wire installation, as well as mounting brackets 153 for easy installation and fixing.
[0056] Specifically, the lower end of the sampling probe 1 is provided with a flange 11, the lower end of which is used to connect to the process pipeline, and the through hole in the middle of the flange 11 serves as the sampling inlet 111; the upper end of the flange 11 is connected to the gas sampling head 12; optionally, the gas sampling head 12 is provided with a calibration port 121, the calibration port 121 is connected to a calibration tube 122, and the outlet of the calibration tube 122 extends to the gas outlet device 136, which facilitates the introduction of standard gas for calibration and shortens the gas replacement time in the sampling device; optionally, the flange 11 is a national standard high-pressure necked weld neck flange, which can be adapted to various process pipelines, and the gas pressure that the sampling inlet of the flange 11 can withstand is less than or equal to 4MPa.

It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
