Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of boilers, in particular to a detachable low-temperature economizer system. Background Art
[0002] Economizer is a device installed at the lower part of the flue at the rear of the boiler to recover the waste heat of the exhaust gas. It heats the boiler feed water into a heating surface of saturated water under the drum pressure. Because it absorbs the heat of high-temperature flue gas, it reduces the exhaust temperature of the flue gas, saves energy and improves efficiency, so it is called an economizer.
[0003] At present, the low-temperature economizer of the boiler is generally composed of the economizer tube panel, the inlet header and the outlet header. The tube panel adopts H-shaped fin tubes to increase the heat dissipation area and improve the thermal efficiency. The low-temperature economizer is generally fixedly installed at the tail of the boiler exhaust duct, because the exhaust temperature is relatively high at this time, and more heat energy can be used.
[0004] The purpose of adding a low-temperature economizer to the tail flue is to reduce the exhaust gas temperature. Since the temperature is high in summer, the use of a low-temperature economizer in summer can achieve the best effect; using a low-temperature economizer in winter will cause the exhaust gas temperature to be too low, causing low-temperature corrosion. Therefore, the low-temperature economizer is not started in winter. Since the conventional low-temperature economizer is a fixed structure and cannot be moved, the heat exchange of the tube bundle is poor in the case of abnormal start-up in winter. The economizer tube bundle is subjected to the scouring of high-temperature flue gas for a long time in the flue and cannot be cooled. The tube material will creep, resulting in thinning of the wall thickness and increased stress. Long-term high temperature will change the material properties of the tube, causing the strength and stiffness of the tube to decrease, and eventually cause the tube to burst, shortening its service life. For this reason, we propose a detachable low-temperature economizer system. Summary of the invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a detachable low-temperature economizer system to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: A detachable low-temperature economizer system comprises a tube panel main body located between a smoke inlet box and a smoke outlet box, wherein the smoke inlet of the tube panel main body is detachably connected to the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet box, and the smoke outlet of the tube panel main body is detachably connected to the smoke inlet of the smoke outlet box via an expansion joint, and the tube panel main body is composed of a bottom plate, a top plate and a plurality of tube panel modules, and the plurality of tube panel modules are sequentially arranged between the bottom plate and the top plate from top to bottom.
[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: the tube panel module includes a bracket, a plurality of heat exchange tubes are fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, fins are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the heat exchange tubes, adjacent heat exchange tubes are interconnected through elbows, and several heat exchange tubes are interconnected to form a serpentine pipe, the two ends of the bracket are respectively fixedly connected with a first side plate and a second side plate, the second side plate is sealed with a water inlet joint and a water outlet joint, and the water inlet joint and the water outlet joint are connected to the two ends of the corresponding serpentine pipe.
[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the first side plate is connected to the adjacent first side plate, the top plate, the bottom plate, the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet header and / or the smoke inlet flange of the expansion joint.
[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: the second side panel is connected to the adjacent first side panel, top panel, bottom panel, smoke outlet of the smoke inlet header and / or smoke inlet flange of the expansion joint.
[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: it also includes two spare side panels, and the spare side panels are provided with flanges connected to the bottom plate, the top plate, the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet header and the smoke inlet of the expansion joint.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: When the present invention is used in winter, the tube panel main body can be removed from between the smoke inlet header and the expansion joint, and then a tube joint with the same diameter as the tube panel main body can be installed between the smoke inlet header and the expansion joint to keep the smoke inlet header and the smoke outlet header connected, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the boiler and preventing the tube panel main body of the low-temperature economizer from being damaged due to being scoured by high-temperature flue gas for a long time in a non-working state, and having a good use effect.

[0019] In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0020] See also Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the present invention, a detachable low-temperature economizer system includes a tube panel body 4 located between a smoke inlet manifold 1 and a smoke outlet manifold 2, wherein the smoke inlet of the tube panel body 4 is detachably connected to the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet manifold 1, and the smoke outlet of the tube panel body 4 is detachably connected to the smoke inlet of the smoke outlet manifold 2 via an expansion joint 3, and the tube panel body 4 is composed of a bottom plate 5, a top plate 7 and a plurality of tube panel modules 6, and the plurality of tube panel modules 6 are sequentially arranged between the bottom plate 5 and the top plate 7 from top to bottom.
[0021] By adopting the above scheme, when there is no need to use a low-temperature economizer to cool the boiler flue gas in winter, the tube panel main body 4 can be removed from between the smoke inlet header 1 and the expansion joint 3, and then a tube joint with the same diameter as the tube panel main body 4 can be installed between the smoke inlet header 1 and the expansion joint 3 to keep the smoke inlet header 1 and the smoke outlet header 2 connected, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the boiler and avoiding damage to the tube panel main body 4 of the low-temperature economizer due to long-term erosion by high-temperature flue gas in a non-working state, and the use effect is good.
[0022] Specific combination Figure 1-3In one embodiment of the present invention, the tube panel module 6 includes a bracket, a plurality of heat exchange tubes 10 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, and the outer wall of the heat exchange tube 10 is fixedly connected to a fin 11, adjacent heat exchange tubes 10 are interconnected through elbows, and several heat exchange tubes 10 are interconnected to form a serpentine pipe, and the two ends of the bracket are respectively fixedly connected with a first side plate 8 and a second side plate 9, and the second side plate 9 is sealed with a water inlet joint and a water outlet joint, and the water inlet joint and the water outlet joint are connected to the two ends of the corresponding serpentine pipe.
