TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dry quenching process, in particular to a process control method for online dynamic balance adjustment of a dry quenching circulating fan. BACKGROUND
[0002] The dry quenching system is a process system for recovering the red coke sensible heat by using nitrogen gas as the main component of the inert gas as the intermediate medium. The circulating fan is the most important power equipment in the dry quenching device, which conveys the inert circulating gas in the closed system and completes the process task of recovering the red coke sensible heat. Since the inert circulating gas in the dry quenching furnace exchanges heat with the descending red coke in counter flow, the coke powder is inevitably carried. Although the coke powder is separated by two-stage process dust collectors, there is still a certain concentration of coke powder when entering the circulating fan. After long-period operation of the circulating fan, the impeller is continuously worn by the coke powder, and the dynamic balance is gradually deteriorated, which is reflected by the gradual increase of the fan shaft vibration. When the fan shaft vibration increases to the critical value, the circulating fan will not work normally. When the initial deterioration of the circulating fan dynamic shaft vibration occurs or the condition of replacing the new impeller is not met, the impeller can be temporarily not replaced, and the online dynamic balance method is adopted to adjust the impeller.
[0003] The difficulty of the online dynamic balance adjustment of the dry quenching circulating fan is that the high-temperature red coke in the dry quenching furnace will interfere with the dynamic balance adjustment. If the system is not cooled, in the process of doing dynamic balance on the circulating fan impeller, the circulating fan needs to be stopped and its manhole needs to be ventilated so that the debugging personnel can work inside the circulating fan, and then a large amount of air will enter the dry quenching furnace, ignite the red coke in the furnace, cause local over-temperature in the furnace, damage the refractory and the central air cap of the gas supply device and other equipment. If the red coke is completely lowered below the ignition point, the system cooling, dynamic balance adjustment and system warming-up process need about 8 days, that is, the dry quenching will be stopped for about 8 days, which will cause the interruption of dry coke supply, affect the smooth operation of the blast furnace production, and reduce the dry quenching power generation benefit. SUMMARY
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a process control method for online dynamic balance adjustment of a dry quenching circulating fan.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present application comprises the following steps: a, stopping coke charging in the coke oven; under the premise of ensuring that the coke discharging temperature meets the requirements, stopping coke discharging when the coke level in the dry quenching furnace is lowered to at least 1 meter below the lower edge of the chute;
[0006] b, lowering the boiler inlet temperature to about 250 DEG C or below;
[0007] c, closing the flat gate, stopping the circulating fan, closing the pre-storage chamber pressure regulating valve and opening the pre-storage chamber diffusing valve to control the pressure in the pre-storage chamber to 30-90 Pa;
[0008] d. Close the nitrogen charging valve at the inlet of the circulating fan, and keep the nitrogen charging valve at the outlet of the circulating fan open;
[0009] e. Close the inlet damper of the dry quenching furnace; open the bottom manhole of the circulating fan and the bottom manhole of the heat exchanger to ventilate the inside of the circulating fan;
[0010] f. Power off the circulating fan and tag it. Detect the gas composition inside the circulating fan through the manhole at the bottom of the fan. After the test is passed, the commissioning personnel enter the circulating fan to inspect the impeller and weld the adjustment block.
[0011] g. After the impeller has been preliminarily inspected and adjusted, and the commissioning personnel have withdrawn, close the bottom manhole of the circulating fan and the bottom manhole of the heat exchanger, close the pre-storage chamber vent valve, open the dry quenching furnace inlet baffle, and de-signal and power on the circulating fan.
[0012] h. Start the circulating fan;
[0013] i. Open the nitrogen charging valve at the inlet of the circulating fan and start the circulating fan to charge the system with nitrogen;
[0014] j. When the oxygen content in the circulating cooling gas reaches below 5 vol%, intermittent coke loading in the coke oven begins, and dry quenching coke production is gradually restored.
[0015] Furthermore, in step b, the cooling rate is controlled to not exceed 45℃ / h.
[0016] Furthermore, in step h, the rotational speed of the circulating fan is gradually increased.
[0017] Furthermore, the speed of the circulating fan should not be increased by more than 2% each time.
[0018] Furthermore, while increasing the speed of the circulating fan, observe whether the shaft vibration value of the circulating fan is qualified. If it is qualified, proceed to the next step. If it is not qualified, repeat steps e to h until the shaft vibration of the circulating fan is qualified.
[0019] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: When the circulating fan is dynamically balanced, the present invention can prevent a large amount of air from entering the dry quenching furnace and igniting the coke, avoid damage to the central air cap of the gas supply device, and also enable the dynamic balancing of the circulating fan impeller without completely cooling the dry quenching system. This shortens the downtime during the dynamic balancing process, increases the supply of dry coke, promotes the smooth operation of blast furnace production, and reduces the loss of power generation benefits.
[0020] The present application can realize the safe on-line debugging of the dynamic balance of the circulating fan of the dry quenching system, prevent coke rekindling during the debugging, fully ensure the safety of the dry quenching refractory, gas supply device and the debugging personnel, shorten the shutdown time of the dry quenching system, and shorten the dry quenching shutdown time by about 7 days compared with the method of completely cooling the system, reduce the influence on the blast furnace production, reduce the loss of dry quenching power generation, and improve the overall economic benefit of the dry quenching.
