Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of building materials, and in particular relates to a system and method for reducing the temperature of aggregates in a mixing station material yard by using ice water spray. Background Art

[0002] Concrete will emit a large amount of hydration heat during the hydration process, causing the internal temperature to rise rapidly. The uneven temperature inside and outside the concrete is prone to temperature stress, which in turn causes temperature stress cracks. When producing concrete in summer, and applying large-volume concrete, iron standard concrete and other concrete that require high mold temperature, in addition to adjusting the mix ratio and raw materials, taking cooling measures for aggregates is one of the simple and effective methods.

[0003] According to literature research, for concrete, for every degree Celsius reduction in concrete temperature, the contribution of aggregates can reach 36%, so taking reasonable cooling methods for aggregates can reduce the risk of concrete cracking. Traditional aggregate yards are mostly open-air or semi-enclosed, and aggregates are easily exposed to high temperatures, causing the surface temperature to be much higher than the air temperature. In addition, the existing cooling methods mostly use traditional circulating spraying methods to cool the surface of aggregates. Although it has a cooling effect to a certain extent, the effect is not long-lasting and it is easy to waste water resources. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art. The system of the present invention uses ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the mixing station material yard. By putting ice cubes in the spray water pool, the temperature of the spray water is greatly reduced, and the temperature of the aggregate can be reduced faster and more efficiently, saving the spray water used. At the same time, the recycled water of the tertiary sedimentation tank is used for cooling, which further saves the consumption of water resources. The aggregate yard and the spray water pool are closed by using sandwich rock wool boards, which reduces the absorption of external heat and prolongs the cooling effect of the ice water.

[0005] In order to achieve the above invention purpose, the technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A system for reducing the temperature of aggregates in a mixing plant material yard by using ice water spray, the system comprising a spray module and a monitoring module, the spray module being used for spraying aggregates to reduce the temperature, and the monitoring module being used for monitoring the temperature of the aggregate pile in the material yard; the spray module being arranged in the material yard, the spray module comprising a sedimentation tank, a water pool and a spray module, the sedimentation tank being connected to the water pool through a pipeline, the spray module being arranged above the material yard, the water pool being connected to the spray module through a water pipe, and the monitoring module comprising an infrared temperature probe, which is arranged on the top of the material yard.

[0007] Furthermore, a plurality of partition walls are arranged in the material yard, and adjacent partition walls are arranged as aggregate storage areas. A spray water room is arranged on one side of the material yard, a water pool is arranged in the spray water room, a temperature detector is arranged in the water pool, a conveyor belt is arranged above one side of the water pool, and the conveyor belt is used to put industrial ice cubes into the water pool to cool the water body. The sedimentation tank is arranged outside the material yard, and the sedimentation tank is a three-stage sedimentation tank.

[0008] Furthermore, a water precision filtration system and a valve are provided on the pipeline connecting the sedimentation tank and the water pool. The water after sedimentation in the sedimentation tank is filtered by the water precision filtration system and then enters the water pool. The insoluble matter content of the water in the water pool is ≤2000mg / L.

[0009] Furthermore, the spray module includes supporting square steel, a spray device and a transverse slide cable track. The supporting square steel is arranged on the top of the material yard. The spray device includes a nozzle and a retractable water pipe. The transverse slide cable track is respectively arranged above each aggregate stacking area. The nozzles are respectively installed on the transverse slide cable track. The water pool is arranged on the supporting square steel through a water pipe. The nozzle is connected to the water pipe arranged on the supporting square steel through the retractable water pipe. When the nozzle is working, the transverse slide cable track drives the nozzle to move back and forth.

[0010] Furthermore, the diameter of the water mist sprayed by the nozzle is 100-1000nm, and the spray volume is 20-50L / min; the transverse cable track is arranged at intervals of 1.5 meters, and the total length of the transverse cable track is not less than 80% of the length of the material yard. When the transverse cable track drives the nozzle to move and spray, the moving speed of the transverse cable track is 1-2m / min; the distance between the nozzle and the highest point of the aggregate stacking in the aggregate stacking area is not less than 1.5 meters.

[0011] Furthermore, the infrared temperature probe is arranged on the supporting square steel, an infrared temperature probe is arranged above each aggregate stacking area, and an operation panel is arranged on each partition wall. The operation panel receives the temperature measurement data of the infrared temperature probe and controls the spray module to spray. When the infrared temperature probe measures that the temperature in a part of the aggregate stacking area is greater than the set value, the operation panel turns on the spray device, and the nozzle reaches the top of the corresponding area through the transverse cable track and sprays to cool down until the temperature of the aggregate stacking area drops below the set temperature.

[0012] A method for reducing the temperature of aggregate in a mixing station material yard by using ice water spray, the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0013] S1, prepare a system for reducing the temperature of aggregates in a mixing plant material yard by using ice water spray, the system comprising a spray module and a monitoring module, the spray module is used to spray and cool the aggregates, the monitoring module is used to monitor the temperature of the aggregate pile in the material yard; the spray module is arranged in the material yard, the spray module comprises a sedimentation tank, a water pool and a spray module, the sedimentation tank is connected to the water pool through a pipeline, the spray module is arranged above the material yard, the water pool is connected to the spray module through a water pipe, and the monitoring module comprises an infrared temperature probe, and the infrared temperature probe is arranged on the top of the material yard;

[0014] S2, when the temperature detector installed inside the pool measures that the pool temperature exceeds the set temperature, the temperature detector sounds an alarm, and industrial ice cubes are added to the pool through the conveyor belt above the pool until the pool temperature drops below the set temperature;

[0015] S3, when the infrared temperature probe measures that the temperature in part of the aggregate stacking area is greater than the set value, the operation panel controls the spraying device corresponding to the aggregate stacking area, and the nozzle reaches the top of the corresponding area through the horizontal slide rail and sprays to cool down until the temperature of the aggregate stacking area drops below the set temperature; the cooling of the aggregate is completed.

[0016] Furthermore, the temperature set by the temperature detector is not more than 5°C. When the pool temperature exceeds 5°C, the temperature detector sends out an alarm.

[0017] Based on the above technical solution, the system and method of using ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the mixing station material yard have achieved the following technical effects through practical application:

[0018] 1. The system of the present invention utilizes ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the material yard of a mixing station. By putting ice cubes in the spray water pool, the temperature of the spray water is greatly reduced, and the temperature of the aggregates can be reduced more quickly and efficiently, saving the spray water used. At the same time, the recycled water of the tertiary sedimentation tank is used for cooling, which again saves the consumption of water resources. The aggregate yard and the spray water pool are closed and surrounded by sandwich rock wool boards, which reduces the absorption of external heat and prolongs the cooling effect of the ice water.

[0019] 2. The system of the present invention utilizes ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the material yard of a mixing station. The system sprays ice water to cool the entire surface of the aggregate through a horizontal cable track, thereby ensuring full coverage and uniformity of the spraying. The infrared temperature probe is used for real-time monitoring, replacing the traditional timed cycle spraying. When the temperature rises, point-to-point spray cooling is performed in time, thereby avoiding the problem of excessive spray water on the aggregate surface.

[0020] 3. The system of the present invention that utilizes ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the material yard of a mixing station utilizes nano ice water spray. Due to its atomization effect, the first thing that comes into contact with the spray during the falling process is the air area above the aggregate yard. During this process, the air inside the material yard is also humidified, which helps to reduce the ambient temperature of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate. The micron-level ice mist is gradually infiltrated into the interior of the coarse aggregate by the fixed-point cooling arranged around the coarse aggregate, further reducing the internal temperature of the coarse aggregate, which is beneficial to the moisture content control and the secondary reduction of the overall temperature of the coarse aggregate. Therefore, the cooling process achieves a two-birds-with-one-stone effect on the temperature control inside the entire material yard while ensuring a direct cooling effect on the aggregate.

[0021] 4. The system of the present invention that utilizes ice water spray to reduce the temperature of aggregates in the material yard of a mixing station can be modified on the basis of the aggregates in a traditional mixing station. The method is simple. When producing in hot summer weather or when preparing concrete with high mold temperature requirements, the aggregates can be cooled in advance, which can reduce the temperature of concrete before leaving the factory and ensure smooth construction.
