[0002] The boiler room in extremely cold areas is a typical ultra-high, large-space, and large-heat-source building. The outdoor temperature in some areas is -30℃ or even -50℃ in winter. Due to the high overall height of the boiler room, after closing all ventilation equipment, the hot air inside the boiler room will automatically flow upward due to its low density, and the temperature in the upper part of the boiler room can reach up to about 50℃-60℃, which leads to a large thermal pressure difference between the upper and lower parts of the boiler room. The high-temperature air in the upper part of the boiler room continuously escapes from the gaps in the boiler room building, and after the air in the upper part of the boiler room overflows, the lower part of the boiler room is under negative pressure.

[0017] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Embodiment 1

[0018] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a boiler room antifreeze system of the present invention is used to prevent the equipment located at the lower part of the boiler room from freezing, comprising: Air supply fan 1, the air supply fan 1 is provided with multiple groups, and the multiple groups of air supply fans 1 are respectively vertically arranged in the air supply openings opened at the top of the boiler room A; Exhaust pipes 2, multiple exhaust pipes 2 are provided, and the multiple exhaust pipes 2 are respectively vertically connected to the side walls in the boiler room A, one end of the exhaust pipe 2 is close to the bottom of the boiler room, and the other end passes through the top of the boiler room and is connected to the outside; The heat exchanger fins 3 are provided in plurality, and the plurality of heat exchanger fins 3 are respectively connected to the side surfaces of the exhaust pipes 2 and close to the top of the boiler room.

[0019] Specifically, a plurality of exhaust pipes 2 are evenly installed on the side walls inside the boiler room, one end of each exhaust pipe 2 is arranged close to the ground of the boiler room, and the other end extends vertically upward and passes through the roof of the boiler room to communicate with the outside. When the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts of the boiler room is large (that is, the temperature above the boiler room is high), the air supply fan 1 located on the top of the boiler room starts to introduce outdoor cold air into the boiler room. After the outdoor cold air is mixed with the hot air in the upper part of the boiler room, the temperature of the mixed air decreases and the density increases, so it gradually moves to the lower part of the boiler room; and in the process of the mixed air gradually moving downward, due to the heat exchange plate 3 on the exhaust pipe 2 (the heat exchange plate 3 absorbs the heat from the upper part of the boiler room to heat the upper part of the exhaust pipe 2), the temperature of the upper part of the exhaust pipe 2 increases, which accelerates the upward discharge of the air in the upper part of the exhaust pipe 2, thereby accelerating the chimney effect of the air flowing from bottom to top in the exhaust pipe 2. In this way, the lower part of each exhaust pipe 2 will suck the air in the lower part of the boiler room, and will accelerate the downward movement speed of the mixed air above the boiler room, and finally form an air flow cycle from top to bottom in the boiler room, and use the high-temperature air originally located above the boiler room to heat the environment in the lower part of the boiler room, so as to avoid icing and frost on the equipment in the boiler room and ensure the normal operation of the system.

[0020] Furthermore, a boiler room antifreeze system further includes a first air valve 4. A plurality of air inlets near the top of the boiler room are provided on the side of the boiler room, and a plurality of first air valves 4 are provided and respectively installed on each air inlet. When the temperature of the high-temperature air in the upper part of the boiler room is reduced to a certain extent, the air supply fan 1 can be turned off and the first air valve 4 can be turned on. By using the suction of the lower end of the exhaust pipe 2 at the lower part of the boiler room, the outside air can enter the boiler room from the first air valve 4, and the cold air entering from the outside further reduces the temperature of the air in the upper part of the boiler room, so that the air in the upper part of the boiler room moves downward, thereby realizing the movement of the air inside the boiler room from top to bottom and being discharged from the exhaust pipe 2, which can reduce energy loss and reduce costs.

[0021] Furthermore, it also includes a regulating fan 5, and there are multiple groups of regulating fans 5, and the multiple groups of regulating fans 5 are respectively vertically arranged in the middle of the boiler room. Specifically, when the internal thermal pressure difference between the upper and lower parts of the boiler room is large, the regulating fan 5 can be turned on to accelerate the introduction speed of outdoor cold air, thereby accelerating the circulation of air in the boiler room, quickly reducing the internal thermal pressure difference between the upper and lower parts of the boiler room, and ensuring the normal operation of the equipment. Specifically, the regulating fan 5 can assist the air supply fan 1 to introduce outdoor cold air from the air supply port on the top of the boiler room; it can also directly introduce cold air from the outside through an air duct extending to the outside, and can be set according to actual needs.

[0022] Furthermore, a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor are provided on the side of the boiler room, which are close to the top and the bottom thereof, respectively. The first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor are connected to a controller, which is connected to the first air valve 4, the air supply fan 1 and the regulating fan 5, respectively. Specifically, the opening and closing of each component can be manually controlled by the controller; at the same time, the automatic opening and closing of each component can be realized by the controller. For example, when the first temperature sensor senses that the temperature of the upper part of the boiler room exceeds a predetermined temperature value or the second temperature sensor senses that the temperature of the lower part of the boiler room is lower than a predetermined temperature value, the controller controls the air supply fan 1, the regulating fan 5 and the first air valve 4 to open automatically; and when the first temperature sensor senses that the temperature of the upper part of the boiler room drops to a predetermined temperature value or the second temperature sensor senses that the temperature of the lower part of the boiler room rises to a predetermined temperature value, the controller controls the air supply fan 1 and the regulating fan 5 to close, and the air inside the boiler room can be circulated from top to bottom only by the cold air naturally entering through the first air valve 4 and the suction effect of each exhaust pipe 2, which can reduce energy consumption. The automatic control of the controller can avoid ice and frost on the equipment in the boiler room before manual intervention, ensuring the stable operation of the equipment. It is conceivable that the automatic opening and closing conditions of each component can be set according to actual needs to meet different needs at different times and seasons.

[0023] Furthermore, the heat exchanger 3 includes an arc-shaped base plate, which is connected to a side of each exhaust pipe 2 away from the side wall of the boiler room through fasteners, and a plurality of fins arranged in an array are vertically connected to the base plate.

[0024] Furthermore, to ensure that the exhaust duct 2 has an effective temperature difference, a first insulation layer may be added to the section of the exhaust duct 2 extending out of the boiler room to prevent the external low temperature from lowering the temperature of the upper end of the exhaust duct 2 .

[0025] Furthermore, a second insulation layer is provided on the side of each exhaust pipe 2 close to the boiler room side wall. Specifically, in order to ensure that the exhaust pipe 2 makes better use of the temperature difference, an insulation layer is provided on the side of the exhaust pipe 2 close to the boiler room side wall so that the low temperature of the boiler room side wall will not affect the temperature inside the exhaust pipe 2; and no insulation layer is provided on the side of the exhaust pipe 2 close to the boiler B so that the exhaust pipe 2 can be normally heated by the high temperature air above the boiler room.

[0026] Furthermore, the diameter of each exhaust pipe 2 gradually decreases from one end close to the bottom of the boiler room to one end close to the top of the boiler room. It is conceivable that the design of the exhaust pipe 2 being thicker at the bottom and thinner at the top can keep the air flow rate unchanged or slightly increase it, thereby preventing the outdoor cold air from flowing back into the exhaust pipe 2.

[0027] Further, a rain cover is provided on the top of each exhaust pipe 2 to prevent rainwater from entering the boiler room from the exhaust pipe 2. More preferably, the input port 21 of the exhaust pipe 2 is located on the side of the exhaust pipe, which is conducive to the rapid flow of air in the boiler room.

[0028] A boiler room antifreeze system of the present invention is provided with an air supply fan 1 to make the hot air gathered in the upper part of the boiler room move from top to bottom, and by providing multiple sets of exhaust pipes 2 and utilizing the heat exchanger plates 3 provided on the exhaust pipes 2 to utilize the heat of the hot air in the upper part of the boiler room, so that the air in the exhaust pipes 2 flows from bottom to top, thereby sucking the air inside the boiler room, and finally forming an air flow circulation from top to bottom inside the boiler room, so that the high-temperature air originally above the boiler room can heat the environment of the lower part of the boiler room, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and providing a comfortable working environment for the staff. Embodiment 2

[0029] Reference Figure 2 As shown, on the basis of the first embodiment, the structure of the boiler room antifreeze system can be simplified. The simplified boiler room antifreeze system removes the air supply fan 1 and the regulating fan 5, and only sets the first air valve 4, the exhaust pipe 2 and the heat exchange plate 3 and other structures. The chimney effect of the exhaust pipe 2 is used to suck the air in the lower part of the boiler room, and the outdoor air enters the boiler room through the first air valve 4. The outdoor cold air reduces the air temperature in the upper part of the boiler room, so that the air in the upper part of the boiler room moves downward, thereby realizing the movement of the air inside the boiler room from top to bottom.

[0030] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
