Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of waste heat recovery of centrifugal air compressors, and more specifically, to a waste heat recovery device and method for a centrifugal air compressor. Background Art

[0002] A centrifugal air compressor is a speed compressor, mainly composed of two parts: the rotor and the stator. The rotor includes the fan and the shaft, while the stator is the casing (cylinder) and other parts. When the fan rotates at high speed, the gas rotates with it, and under the action of centrifugal force, the gas is thrown into the diffuser behind, and a vacuum zone is formed at the fan, at which time fresh air from the outside enters the fan. By continuously rotating and throwing out gas, the centrifugal air compressor can continuously produce compressed air.

[0003] Centrifugal air compressors generate a lot of waste heat during operation. If not handled, this waste heat will not only waste energy, but also pollute the environment. Therefore, it is of great significance to recycle and reuse the waste heat of centrifugal air compressors. Through waste heat recovery, the waste heat generated by centrifugal air compressors can be used for other purposes, such as heating, heating, etc., thereby improving energy utilization efficiency, reducing production costs, and reducing pollution to the environment.

[0004] Among them, the patent application number CN201420590041.6 discloses a waste heat recovery system for a centrifugal air compressor, including a heat recovery heat exchanger, a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe, an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe, one flow channel of the heat recovery heat exchanger connects the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe, and the other flow channel connects the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe, the air inlet pipe is connected to the centrifugal air compressor, the air outlet pipe is connected to the filter and the cooler in sequence, and a connecting valve connected in parallel with the heat recovery heat exchanger is provided between the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe; a drain valve and a two-way valve arranged in parallel are provided on the water inlet pipe; When this structure is in use, a large amount of heat energy generated during the operation of the air compressor can be recovered by exchanging heat between cold water and hot air in the heat recovery heat exchanger, and the recovered heat energy can be used for production and life to protect the environment.

When the gear box 207 is in operation, it drives the extension tubes 208 and the driven gears 209 to rotate, thereby rotating the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202, so that the contact fins 203 on each of the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 can contact each other one by one. The two extension tubes 208 are respectively connected with the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202, and a guide cavity 204 is opened between the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 and the corresponding contact fins 203.

[0025] A waste heat recovery method, using the above-mentioned centrifugal air compressor waste heat recovery device, comprises the following steps; Step one, the staff installs the device at the designated position. When the heat generated during the operation of the air compressor is recovered and utilized, the heat exchange medium is injected into the second heat exchange tube 202, and the high-temperature medium is injected into the gathering frame 3 through the through hole 305. The driving motor 306 starts the driving fan 101 to extract the high-temperature medium in the gathering frame 3 and divert it through each first one-way valve 102, and the high-temperature medium is diverted to each duct 103 and the boost pipe 104.

[0026] Step two, when the driving motor 306 drives the fan 101 to run, it can also drive the turntable 301 to rotate. When the turntable 301 rotates, it drives the crankshaft 302 to rotate. When the crankshaft 302 rotates, it will pull each traction rod 303 and piston 304 to move in the corresponding boosting pipe 104, so that the high-temperature medium in the boosting pipe 104 is transported to the first heat exchange pipe 201 through the second one-way valve 105.

At the same time, in order to further ensure the efficiency and effect of recycling, the gear box 207 is driven by an external motor to operate. When the gear box 207 is running, it drives the extension tube 208 and the driven gear 209 to rotate, thereby rotating the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202, so that the contact fins 203 on each of the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 can contact each other one by one, and the heat generated by the friction between the two is also recovered by the heat exchange medium in the second heat exchange tube 202.

At the same time, in order to further ensure the efficiency and effect of recycling, the gear box 207 is driven by an external motor to operate. When the gear box 207 is in operation, it drives the extension tube 208 and the driven gear 209 to rotate, thereby rotating the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202, so that the contact fins 203 on each of the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 can contact each other one by one, and the heat generated by the friction between the two is also recovered by the heat exchange medium in the second heat exchange tube 202.

[0031] Furthermore, the high-temperature medium is pressurized in the boost pipe 104 and discharged through the second one-way valve 105, which makes it easy to gather the high-temperature medium, so that the high-temperature medium is discharged more specifically.

[0032] Different from the prior art, the present application discloses a waste heat recovery device for a centrifugal air compressor and a method thereof. Through the corresponding coordinated use of various structures, the high-temperature medium is diverted to each conduit 103 and the boost pipe 104, so that the function of diverting and recycling the high-temperature medium after it is gathered is realized. The high-temperature medium passes through the contact fins 203 on the outside of the first heat exchange tube 201 and the contact fins 203 on the outside of the second heat exchange tube 202 to contact each other for heat conduction and heat exchange, so that the function of waste heat recovery is realized. The high-temperature medium is pressurized in the boost pipe 104 and discharged through the second one-way valve 105, which makes it easy to gather the high-temperature medium, making the discharge of the high-temperature medium more targeted, so that the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 rotate, so that the contact fins 203 on each of the first heat exchange tube 201 and the second heat exchange tube 202 can contact each other one by one, thereby improving the heat recovery efficiency and effect.
