Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of gas drying, and in particular to a zero-gas-consumption double-tower adsorption dryer. Background Art

[0002] Adsorption dryers are widely used in drying compressed gases. In order to reduce the dew point of the gas, the desiccant needs to be regenerated in time. In order to achieve continuous production and improve drying efficiency, double-tower adsorption dryers came into being, such as Figure 1 As shown. The device is provided with two adsorption towers: a first adsorption tower 1' and a second adsorption tower 2'. By controlling the opening or closing of the first pneumatic valve 5' and the second pneumatic valve 6', the two adsorption towers can alternately perform drying and regeneration operations, thereby realizing cyclic operation.

[0003] The regeneration of the adsorption tower is usually carried out through the regeneration pipeline 4', and the dry gas processed by the adsorption tower in the drying operation is introduced into the adsorption tower being regenerated, so as to regenerate the desiccant therein. In order to optimize the gas recovery process after regeneration and achieve zero gas consumption, the system controls the opening or closing of the third pneumatic valve 7' and the fourth pneumatic valve 8' to reintroduce the regenerated gas into the adsorption tower in the drying operation for drying treatment, because the regenerated gas contains a large amount of water.

[0004] The first adsorption tower 1' and the second adsorption tower 2' in the current technology both adopt axial gas flow mode, and the gas will encounter significant resistance when passing through the desiccant, resulting in a large pressure drop. In addition, the humid air pressure generated by the air compressor is high, while the gas pressure after regeneration is low. This pressure difference makes it impossible for the regenerated gas to effectively mix with the humid air of the air compressor and enter the adsorption tower for drying operation, thereby affecting the system circulation, reducing the regeneration efficiency of the desiccant and the overall performance of the dryer.

[0005] In order to reduce the resistance caused by the desiccant and reduce the gas pressure drop, a desiccant with a smaller resistance coefficient is usually selected, but this will increase the use cost of the dryer. In order to further promote the mixing of the regenerated gas and the wet air, an ejector 3' is often configured in the system. The working principle of the ejector 3' is similar to that of a Venturi tube. The wet air is ejected at high speed through the ejector to generate a negative pressure, which then inhales the regenerated gas and mixes the two before sending them to the adsorption tower for the drying operation. Although in most cases, the ejector 3' can effectively solve the problem of the integration of the regenerated gas, when the wet air pressure of the air compressor is low, the negative pressure generated by the ejector 3' is still not enough to completely inhale the regenerated gas, resulting in poor system circulation, which in turn affects the regeneration of the desiccant and the overall performance of the dryer. At the same time, a desiccant with a smaller resistance coefficient still needs to be used, and the problem of relatively high use cost has not been fundamentally solved. Summary of the invention

[0006] To this end, the present invention provides a zero-gas-consumption double-tower adsorption dryer, which mainly solves the technical problems that the adsorption tower of the prior art zero-gas-consumption double-tower adsorption dryer adopts an axial gas flow mode and cannot effectively overcome the large pressure drop, resulting in high use cost, poor circulation of the overall system of the dryer, affecting the regeneration of the desiccant and the overall performance of the dryer, and being unable to adapt to low-pressure air compressors.

[0018] The present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The first adsorption tower and the second adsorption tower provided therein each include an adsorption tower body, a first air flow channel is provided at the axial center position of the adsorption tower body along its axial direction, a first partition is provided on the periphery of the first air flow channel, a first chamber is formed between the first partition and the first air flow channel for placing a desiccant, and a second air flow channel is formed between the first partition and the adsorption tower body, so that the gas flow direction of the first adsorption tower and the second adsorption tower of the present application flows radially, compared with the gas axial flow mode of the adsorption tower in the prior art, such as Fig.10 The schematic diagram of the adsorption tower of the prior art dryer is shown, hereinafter referred to as "axis". Fig.11 The schematic diagram of the adsorption tower of the dryer of the present application is shown, hereinafter referred to as "diameter", according to the Darcy formula of the pressure drop equation:

[0020]

[0021] Among them, Δp is the pressure drop of gas through the pipeline; λ is the friction coefficient along the way; ρ is the velocity of the gas; v is the average velocity of the gas; h is the pipe length; s is the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipeline.

[0022] Friction coefficient λ along the pipe, Reynolds number Re, and relative roughness of the pipe wall about, that is

[0023] Under the same pipeline conditions, it can be assumed that λ is constant when the gas flows in the pipeline. The difference between axial flow and radial flow of gas is analyzed in the above case.

[0024] 1. From formula (1.1), we can know that the pressure drop caused by axial flow of gas is:

[0025]

[0026] Among them, H 轴 is the height of the adsorption tower; R 轴 It is the radius of the adsorption tower when the gas flows axially. It can be seen that in the axial flow mode, to reduce the pressure drop, the only way is to reduce H 轴 , or increase R 轴 This results in the actual product being flattened, increasing the floor space, and making it difficult to commercialize.

[0027] 2. From formula (1.1), we can know that the pressure drop caused by radial flow of gas is:

[0028]

[0029] Further arrangement of formula (1.3) yields:

[0030]

[0031] Among them, H 径is the height of the adsorption tower; R1 is the outer diameter of the first airflow channel; R2 is the inner diameter of the second airflow channel. It can be seen that in radial flow mode, to reduce the pressure drop, when R1 and R2 remain unchanged, it is only necessary to increase H 径 , H 径 The increase in H will not increase the floor space, making it easy to commercialize. 径 The increase will also increase the volume of the first chamber and the second chamber, which can effectively solve the possible reduction in drying capacity caused by the reduction in desiccant capacity when the axial direction changes to the radial direction.

[0032] At the same time, compared with the axial flow method in the prior art, the radial flow method of the present application greatly increases the contact area between the gas and the desiccant, and the contact time is shorter. This optimized airflow design significantly improves the contact efficiency between the gas and the desiccant, thereby greatly improving the adsorption efficiency of the desiccant.

[0033] It can be seen that the zero-gas-consumption double-tower adsorption dryer of the present application has the advantages of low pressure drop, reduced use cost, smooth system operation, etc.; at the same time, it has the advantage of improving the adsorption efficiency of the desiccant.
