[0002] In the prior art, there are two ways to generate saturated steam. One is to use a boiler to heat water with fuel or other energy to generate saturated steam. The other is to use the waste heat generated when heating the boiler to directly heat water to generate saturated steam.

[0003] The exhaust temperature of existing boilers is designed to be above 150℃ in order to prevent the sulfur-containing components in the fuel from producing acidic substances such as NOx compounds during the combustion process, which will corrode the tail of the heating surface of the boiler, reduce the strength of the tail heating surface, endanger the safe operation of the boiler, and cause the boiler to be scrapped in advance. Therefore, the design exhaust temperature of conventional oil and gas boilers (direct-fired engines) at home and abroad is greater than 150℃, and the thermal efficiency is generally 70~85%, which makes it difficult to maximize the use of energy.

[0004] The present invention provides a superconducting flue gas recovery device, through which the waste heat of the flue gas can be effectively recovered and utilized, so that the waste heat can further heat pure water to generate steam, thereby maximizing energy utilization. Summary of the invention

[0022] In the above scheme, preferably, the recovery process of the flue gas recovery system of the heat pump steam engine is as follows:

[0023] S1: High-temperature flue gas enters the flue from the smoke inlet, and then contacts the fins in the flue, transferring the heat of the flue gas to the heat dissipation part through the superconducting working medium in the superconducting heat pipe, thereby heating the fluid in the heating chamber;

[0035] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Figure 1-Figure 6 , heat pump steam engine flue gas recovery system, such as Figure 1As shown, it includes a boiler 10, a bag filter 11, a desulfurization wet process tower 12 and a flue gas recovery device. The high-temperature flue gas generated by the boiler 10 passes through the bag filter 11 and the desulfurization wet process tower 12 and then enters the flue gas recovery device. When entering the flue gas recovery device, the flue gas temperature is above 150°C.

[0036] The flue gas recovery device includes a flue 1 and a heating chamber 2. The flue gas enters the smoke inlet of the flue 1 and is then discharged through a chimney 13. The heating chamber 2 is arranged above the flue 1 and is preferably fixedly connected to the upper wall of the flue 1. The heating chamber 2 is filled with pure water. The heating chamber 2 is connected to the flue 1 through a plurality of superconducting heat pipes 3. Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the superconducting heat pipe 3 includes a heat absorbing part 301 and a heat dissipating part 302. The heat dissipating part 302 is placed on the top and arranged in the heating chamber 2. The heat absorbing part 301 is placed in the flue 1, and a plurality of fins 303 are arranged on its outer wall for absorbing heat from the high-temperature flue gas in the flue 1. The absorbed heat is then conducted to the heat dissipating part 302 through the fins 303, thereby heating the heating chamber 2.

[0037] The heat absorbing part 301 and the heat dissipating part 302 are preferably integrally formed and are hollow tubes made of highly corrosion-resistant metals, and the interior is in a vacuum state. In order to enhance the heat conduction in the tube, the superconducting heat pipe 3 is filled with a superconducting medium, and the superconducting medium is a liquid, or a gas with excellent thermal conductivity. In this embodiment, liquid is preferably selected, and liquids with good thermal conductivity such as alcohol solution or mercury liquid can be used. After the fins 303 absorb heat, the superconducting medium in the tube is unpoweredly transported to the heating chamber 2 on the upper part of the flue gas recovery device, and the heat is released to the pure water, thereby heating the pure water to generate steam.

[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, the fins 303 are evenly arranged radially around the center of the superconducting heat pipe 3. In this embodiment, 8 fins are arranged as an example. The fins 303 on the side of the smoke inlet close to the flue 1 are preferably arranged parallel to the smoke flow direction, so that when the smoke enters, the heat absorbed by the fins 303 is most directly, and the fins on this side heat up faster than the fins on the other side of the superconducting heat pipe 3.

[0039] When the temperature of the fin 303 on one side is high, the efficiency of heat transfer of the superconducting medium close to the side is in a saturated state. Therefore, the present embodiment provides a rotatable superconducting heat pipe 3, so that the fin 303 on one side rotates 180° after reaching a certain temperature, so that the fin 303 on the other side is on the side of the flue gas inlet direction, thereby improving the uniformity of heating of the entire superconducting heat pipe 3; specifically, as Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, a driving shaft 311 is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the superconducting heat pipe 3 , and the driving shaft 311 is rotatably disposed on the lower side wall of the flue 1 and penetrates the lower side wall of the flue 1 .

[0040] The driving shaft 311 is provided with a clutch 304 after passing through the wall of the flue 1. The clutch 304 is slidably arranged on the driving shaft 311, and its inner hole is slidably matched with the driving shaft 311 through a spline. A transmission box 103 is provided on the outer wall of the lower side of the flue 1. A driving wheel 101 matched with each clutch 304 is rotatably arranged in the transmission box 103. Adjacent driving wheels 101 are connected by a transmission belt 104, and a driving motor 105 connected by transmission to any driving wheel 101 is provided on the transmission box 103. The driving motor 105 and any driving wheel 101 can be connected by a driving belt 106. That is, when the driving motor 105 is started, each driving wheel 101 corresponding to the clutch 304 at the lower end of the superconducting heat pipe 3 can be rotated.

[0041] The clutch 304 is provided with a first tooth portion 307 on the lower end surface. The first tooth portion 307 is preferably a small tooth that is spaced and protrudes from the end surface and is arranged in a circumference, that is, Figure 5 The state shown; the upper end surface of the driving wheel 101 is provided with a second tooth portion 102 that can mesh with the first tooth portion 307. When the clutch 304 slides downward, it can mesh with the driving wheel 101 as a whole through the meshing of the teeth. Then, when the driving wheel 101 rotates, the superconducting heat pipe 3 can be driven to rotate through the clutch 304; in order to enable the driving wheel 101 to rotate in a timely manner, grating components 5 for detecting the clutch 304 after sliding are symmetrically provided on both sides of the transmission box 103. The grating component 5 is electrically connected to the driving motor 105, that is, when any clutch 304 slides downward, it can enter the detection range of the grating component 5, and then the grating component 5 feeds back a signal to the driving motor 105, so that the motor starts and drives the driving wheel 101 to rotate.

[0042] The bottom of the flue 1 near the transmission box 103 is provided with a bimetallic strip 4 for driving the clutch 304 to slide. The bimetallic strip 4 contacts the bottom of the fin 303 on the side of the flue 1 near the smoke inlet. Figure 3 As shown, the bimetallic strip 4 is preferably arranged in an arc shape, which is in a state of Figure 3 State, that is, the arc-shaped raised surface is in contact with the fin 303, and a driving rod 306 is fixedly arranged on the surface of the bimetallic strip 4 away from the fin 303. The driving rod 306 is vertically downwardly penetrated through the wall of the flue 1. The driving rod 306 is preferably a hexagonal rod, so that the driving rod 306 can be guided and slidable.

[0043] After the driving rod 306 passes through the wall of the flue 1 downward, a driving plate 305 connected to the clutch 304 is fixedly provided. One side of the driving plate 305 is fixed to the driving rod 306, and the other side is sleeved in the annular groove of the clutch 304, that is, the clutch 304 can rotate freely on the driving plate 305. When the temperature of the bimetallic strip 4 reaches the heat absorption temperature of the fin 303, the bimetallic strip 4 is deformed, so that the raised surface on the upper surface deforms downward, driving the driving rod 306 to slide downward, further driving the clutch 304 to slide downward to trigger the grating assembly 5 and then engage with the driving wheel 101, and then the driving motor 105 is started to drive the driving wheel 101 to rotate so that the superconducting heat pipe 3 engaged with it rotates synchronously.

[0044] In order to make the superconducting heat pipe 3 rotate 180 degrees after the clutch 304 is triggered, the driving plate 305 is provided with a sensor 308 that cooperates with the clutch 304. Specifically, the clutch 304 is provided with a sensing arm 309 for being sensed by the sensor 308. Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the sensing arm 309 is symmetrically arranged at 180°; an electromagnet 310 for adsorbing the driving plate 305 is provided on the flue 1, and the electromagnet 310 is electrically connected to the sensor 308. When the sensor 308 is triggered, the electromagnet 310 can be energized for 1-10 seconds, and the specific time can be set according to the cooling property of the bimetallic strip, so that the electromagnet 310 adsorbs the driving plate 305, and further makes the clutch 304 slide upward and disengage from the driving wheel 101. At the same time, the driving rod 306 is forced to press upward against the bimetallic strip 4, so that the bimetallic strip 4 is reset and contacts with the fin 303 on the other side after rotation, and the temperature of the fin 303 is re-detected.

[0045] The clutch 304 is provided with a striking block 312, and the striking block 312 is arranged on the side of the spline hole of the clutch 304 facing the driving shaft 311. The end of the driving shaft 311 is provided with a hammer hole 313 matched with the striking block 312. When the clutch 304 slides upward, the upper end of the striking block 312 can contact and collide with the bottom of the hammer hole 313, thereby causing the entire superconducting heat pipe 3 to vibrate, shaking off the smoke and dust accumulated on the fins 303, and causing the superconducting working fluid with a lower stability after heat exchange in the upper part of the tube to quickly drop and mix with the working fluid with a higher temperature in the lower part, thereby accelerating heat exchange.

[0046] The recovery process of the flue gas recovery system of the heat pump steam engine is as follows:

[0047] S1: High-temperature flue gas enters the flue 1 from the smoke inlet, and then contacts the fins 303 in the flue 1, transferring the heat of the flue gas to the heat dissipation part 302 through the superconducting working medium in the superconducting heat pipe 3, thereby heating the fluid in the heating chamber 2;

[0048] S2: When the fin 303 near the smoke inlet reaches the deformation temperature of the bimetallic strip 4, the bimetallic strip 4 is deformed, and the driving rod 306 drives the driving plate 305 to slide, so that the clutch 304 slides and meshes with the driving wheel 101;

[0049] S3: After the clutch 304 slips, it is detected by the grating assembly 5, so that the drive motor 105 is started, driving the drive wheel 101 to rotate, and further rotating the clutch 304 to drive the superconducting heat pipe 3 to rotate;

[0050] S4: The sensing arm 309 on the clutch 304 rotates 180° and is sensed by the sensor 308, so that the electromagnet 310 is energized to adsorb the driving plate 305, so that the clutch 304 is disengaged from the driving wheel 101. At the same time, the driving plate 305 slides to make the driving rod 306 press against the bimetallic strip 4, so that the bimetallic strip 4 is reset and re-contacts the fin 303 on the side close to the smoke inlet after rotation, and the next detection is carried out.

[0051] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
