Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of environmental protection equipment and technology, and in particular to a diagnosis and optimization method and system for a blast furnace bag filter based on CFD simulation. Background Art

[0002] The blast furnace bag filter is a device for purifying blast furnace flue gas, mainly used to remove particulate matter and pollutants in the flue gas to protect the environment and improve production efficiency. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, its main components include pre-processor, middle box and internal structure. The pre-processor performs preliminary purification on the flue gas, and uses inertia and gravity to separate large particles and dust, which reduces the load on the subsequent filter bags, thereby improving the life of the filter bags and the filtering effect. The middle box is the key part connecting the pre-processor and the filter bag. It is equipped with guide plates and guide devices inside. After reasonable design and arrangement, the flue gas can be evenly distributed before entering the filter bag, improving the efficiency and life of the filter bag. The core of the internal structure is the filter bag, which is made of high-temperature wear-resistant materials to effectively filter tiny particles in the flue gas. The filter bag usually adopts a bag structure and has tiny pores on the surface. Through these pores, the flue gas can pass through, while retaining particles on the surface of the filter bag to achieve flue gas purification. In short, the pre-processor removes larger impurities first, the middle box ensures that the flue gas is evenly distributed, and the filter bag of the internal structure completes the final filtration of tiny particles.

[0003] At present, the design of blast furnace bag dust collectors mainly relies on engineering experience or standard experiments, and lacks in-depth analysis and application of internal airflow and dust particle flow mechanism. This makes it difficult to accurately know the cause of dust collector wear, and problems are often discovered only after the bag or shell is damaged, which not only causes economic losses, but also affects the safety of the dust collector and the overall operation of the blast furnace.

[0004] Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a simulation method that uses computers and numerical methods to solve the movement of fluids and fluid-solid mixtures. The CFD method can be used to simulate and model the flow field and particles inside the dust collector, simulate the movement speed, pressure, flow path, etc. of the airflow and particles in the dust collector, and consider the two flow characteristics in the dust collector during the design stage, identify the wear-prone locations, and optimize the structural design.

[0005] Through searching patent documents, it is found that the invention patent with publication number CN116362145A discloses a simple simulation analysis method for cartridge dust collector or bag dust collector, which includes: extracting a real single chamber model from the cartridge dust collector or bag dust collector, setting a guide plate structure for simulation, and obtaining a single chamber model A; simplifying the cartridge structure or bag structure in the single chamber model A to form a new filtering structure, and establishing a single chamber model B; simulating the single chamber model B, comparing the single chamber model A, and correcting the new filtering structure to obtain an equivalent filtering structure and an equivalent single chamber model C; using the single chamber model C to simulate the entire dust collector and optimize the dust collector guide structure. The patent experiment has high cost and long cycle, and it is impossible to predict the wear-prone position in advance, and there are safety hazards.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0071] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments. The following embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention in any form. It should be noted that, for those of ordinary skill in the art, several changes and improvements can also be made without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0072] The present invention adopts computational fluid dynamics simulation technology to simulate the airflow and high-speed dust impact position in the bag filter in a computer at low cost, quickly and accurately, so that designers can optimize the structure of the filter, reduce the wear of the filter, and thus increase the service life of the filter.

[0073] Embodiment 1:

[0074] Figure 1 The present invention is a flowchart of a method for diagnosing the health status of a blast furnace bag filter based on CFD simulation in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention proposes a blast furnace bag filter health status diagnosis method based on CFD simulation, comprising the following steps:

[0076] Step S1, processing the three-dimensional CAD model of the blast furnace dust removal system to obtain a dust removal system model containing a fluid region that can be used for CFD simulation calculations.

[0077] Figure 3 It is a three-dimensional preview diagram of the blast furnace dust removal system in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0078] like Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the three-dimensional CAD model of the blast furnace dust removal system includes: a preprocessor inlet 1, a dust outlet 2, a preprocessor internal baffle 3, a preprocessor 4, a middle box 5 and a middle box outlet 6, and the three-dimensional CAD model of the blast furnace dust removal system is initially in the form of a solid shell.

[0079] Since the calculation of the flow field requires a fluid area, the blast furnace dust removal system must be closed and the fluid area must be extracted to obtain the fluid calculation space required for CFD simulation.

[0080] Figure 4 is the preprocessor fluid calculation domain in the embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 It is the dust removal cabin fluid calculation domain in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0081] In this embodiment, for the three-dimensional CAD model of the blast furnace dust removal system, the Boolean operation function of the CAD software is used to create a block larger than the model boundary, and the outer shell of the blast furnace dust removal system is subtracted from the block, and then the remaining model is refined, that is, the internal fluid domain of each part is retained, and the shell and the outer shell area are deleted. Figure 4 , 5 The dust collection system model shown contains the fluid regions that can be used for CFD simulation calculations.

[0082] The dust treatment sequence of the blast furnace dust removal system is: pre-processor 4, middle box 5 and middle box outlet 6.

[0083] Step S2, setting operating parameters according to actual conditions.

[0084] In order to accurately present the flow state of the dust collector during operation, it is necessary to set the operating conditions in the simulation process according to the actual situation, including the flow fluid characteristics (such as temperature, density) and the flow conditions at the boundary of the calculation domain (such as inlet mass flow rate, external pressure, etc.).

[0085] In this embodiment, the ambient temperature is set to 25 degrees and the air density is 1.2 kg / m 3 , dynamic viscosity is 959e-6N*s / m 2 , inlet flow rate is 140000m 3 / h, outlet pressure is 10Kpa.

[0086] During simulation, the corresponding calculation parameters are input into the software. Different parameters lead to different calculation results, and only one round of calculation is required, without the need to increase the number of rounds in equal proportions.

[0087] Step S3, performing discretization grid processing on the fluid region of the dust removal system model to obtain a grid-divided model.

[0088] In this implementation, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods use space and time discretization methods to solve flow problems.

[0089] Figure 6 is a middle side cross section of a pre-processor in an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 7 It is the middle side cross section of the middle box body in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0090] In this embodiment, the meshing software is used to spatially discretize the fluid region by using a meshing method combining a polyhedron boundary with a hexahedron core, and the following is obtained: Figure 6 The middle side section of the preprocessor shown and Figure 7 The model after meshing of the middle side section of the middle box is shown.

[0091] Step S4, based on the operating condition parameters and the meshed model, a computational fluid dynamics model is constructed and solved to obtain result data calculated by the CFD method.

[0092] Specifically, step S4 includes the following sub-steps:

[0093] Step S4.1, reading the meshed model obtained in step S3;

[0094] Step S4.2, setting the time model to steady state;

[0095] Step S4.3, set the turbulence model to the ke standard turbulence model and the standrad wall function model;

[0096] Step S4.4, the physical property parameters adopt the ambient temperature, air density and dynamic viscosity set in step S2;

[0097] Step S4.5, the boundary conditions are set to the inlet flow rate and outlet pressure set in step S2;

[0098] Step S4.6, the regional condition is set to the porous medium model;

[0099] Step S4.7, setting calculation parameters, such as iteration step size and convergence condition;

[0100] Step S4.8, setting the number of computer CPU cores for parallel solving;

[0101] Step S4.9, setting data extraction to extract the inlet and outlet pressures at each iteration time step;

[0102] Step S4.10, execute calculation to obtain result data obtained by CFD method calculation including various flow parameter results of all discrete grid cells.

[0103] Figure 8 It is a top view of the middle cross section of the pre-processor in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0104] The simulation result screenshot obtained in step S4 is as follows: Figure 8 shown.

[0105] Step S5, extracting the flow parameters of specific positions and cross sections from the result data obtained by the CFD method to visualize the flow state inside the dust collector, and analyzing to obtain the analysis results.

[0106] Specifically, the analysis steps of step S5 are as follows:

[0107] Step S5.1, according to the structure of the dust collector, the key areas are clearly defined as the pre-processor and the dust removal chamber.

[0108] Step S5.2, based on the key area, extract the preprocessor ( Figure 8 is a top view of the middle section of the preprocessor in an embodiment of the present invention; Fig. 9 is the pre-processor outlet velocity cloud diagram in the embodiment of the present invention) and the dust removal chamber ( Fig.10 is a velocity vector diagram of the middle section of the box in the main dust collector in an embodiment of the present invention; Fig.11 The flow parameters of a specific position and cross section of a single dust removal chamber (cross-sectional vector diagram) in an embodiment of the present invention are displayed, and the flow state inside the dust collector is visualized.

[0109] In this embodiment, step S5.2 is specifically as follows:

[0110] For the preprocessor exit speed distribution, such as Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, the velocity distribution is uneven due to the wind blocking by the baffle, and most of the flow is concentrated at the middle diagonal of the outlet (the outlet is the red frame area in the figure), and a vortex area is formed at the vertical corner in the lower left corner of the outlet, resulting in a low-speed flow area, which hinders normal flow.

[0111] Regarding the main dust collector box, such as Fig.10 As shown in the figure, the airflow flows from left to right, then downwards into each compartment, then flows out from the top of the compartment, and then passes through the middle box from left to right to the fan. As shown in the red box in the figure, the first compartment inlet of the middle box of the main dust collector is affected by the position, and the flow turning radius is small, making it difficult for air to turn and enter. In addition, as the position is arranged downstream (that is, to the right in the figure), the downstream compartment inlet flow rate gradually increases, which leads to uneven distribution of inflow in each compartment, and forms a recirculation area above the outlet flow channel, which limits the effective outflow of gas.

[0112] Step S5.3, based on the exit of the preprocessor extracted in step S5.2 (i.e. Fig. 9The flow parameters of the outlet section (shown by the preprocessor outlet velocity cloud diagram) and the presented velocity distribution are analyzed to analyze the unevenness of the velocity distribution and determine whether the placement of the internal baffles of the preprocessor is unreasonable.

[0113] Step S5.4, based on the extracted data in step S5.2 Figure 8 The velocity direction of the velocity vector in the top-down cross-section of the middle of the preprocessor determines the reasonable shell shape of the preprocessor and the placement position of the baffle.

[0114] Step S5.5, based on the speed direction of the speed vector diagram of the dust removal chamber extracted in step S5.2, determine whether the airflow direction at the dust removal chamber inlet is correct. If the airflow direction is incorrect, improve the dust removal chamber inlet direction based on the analysis results, and make corresponding adjustments and optimizations to the placement of the guide plate.

[0115] Fig.11 It is a cross-sectional vector diagram of a single dust removal chamber in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0116] like Fig.11 As shown in the figure, the flow of air in a single dust removal chamber: the airflow flows downward from the middle box into the two side chambers, and after entering the chamber, it impacts the guide plate, which blocks and guides the airflow. Among them, the second and third guide plates from the inside to the outside have obvious guiding effects. After being guided, the airflow is mainly divided into several parts: one part impacts the upper left with the second and third guide plates. One part impacts the wall downward and moves upward along the wall. Another part impacts the wall downward and swirls downward along the wall.

[0117] Fig.12 It is a velocity distribution diagram of the bottom (inlet) cross section of the filter bag in the dust removal chamber in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0118] like Fig.12 As shown, the filter bags near the inside are impacted by a larger amount of airflow, while the filter bags in the middle and outside are impacted by a smaller amount of airflow.

[0119] Step S5.6, based on the extracted data in step S5.2 Fig.10 The velocity vector diagram of the middle section of the box in the main dust collector is used to analyze the vortex distribution, identify the area with larger vortex as the invalid area, and remove the corresponding redundant structure in the dust collector.

[0120] Embodiment 2:

[0121] This embodiment provides a blast furnace bag filter optimization method based on CFD simulation, based on the blast furnace bag filter health status diagnosis method based on CFD simulation in the above embodiment 1, including the following steps:

[0122] Step S1, processing the three-dimensional CAD model of the blast furnace dust removal system to obtain a dust removal system model containing a fluid region that can be used for CFD simulation calculation;

[0123] Step S2, setting operating parameters according to actual conditions;

[0124] Step S3, performing discretization grid processing on the fluid region of the dust removal system model to obtain a grid-divided model;

[0125] Step S4, based on the operating condition parameters and the meshed model, construct and solve a computational fluid dynamics model to obtain result data calculated by the CFD method;

[0126] Step S5, extracting flow parameters at specific positions and cross sections from the result data calculated by the CFD method, for visualizing the flow state inside the dust collector, and analyzing to obtain analysis results;

[0127] Step S6, optimizing the vulnerable structure based on the analysis results.

[0128] The original blast furnace bag filter design was designed using empirical formulas, and did not find the location where the airflow impacted at high speed. However, the health status diagnosis method based on CFD simulation analysis can clearly see the location where the airflow impacted, and can be optimized based on this.

[0129] Specifically, based on the analysis results of step S5, when it is found that the flow rate from the middle box to the cabin inlet gradually increases and the inflow distribution of each cabin is uneven, the load of the rear cabin is obviously greater than that of the front cabin, and the service life is reduced compared to the general working conditions. By improving the middle box or adding guide plates, the flow distribution of each cabin is optimized, thereby reducing the unevenness of the flow distribution of each cabin.

[0130] When calculations show that the middle box flow channel and pre-treatment baffle structure account for more than 50% of the overall pressure drop and there are a large number of vortex areas, the shape of the relevant structures is optimized to reduce the pressure drop and reduce the fan energy consumption.

[0131] When the velocity distribution at the bottom inlet of the filter bag is uneven and the airflow impact is concentrated on the side close to the middle box body, the inner filter bag is more susceptible to impact and wear, and its life is reduced. By optimizing the shape and arrangement of the guide plate on the filter bag inlet, the airflow distribution on the filter bag inlet is made more uniform, thereby reducing the airflow impact on the filter bag near the box body and increasing the service life of the filter bag near the box body.

[0132] When it is diagnosed that the cloth bag near the box body is severely worn due to uneven airflow distribution at the filter bag inlet and mainly concentrated on the side near the box body, and due to unreasonable design of the guide plate, the guide plate is optimized.

[0133] According to actual cases, the deflector shape designed by experience originally had serious airflow impact near the box body, serious wear of the cloth bag near the box body, and high replacement frequency. The deflector designed originally mainly blocked the wind direction. The second and third deflectors facing the wind attracted a lot of wind, while causing the rest of the wind to deflect downward, resulting in too little air volume received by the subsequent deflectors.

[0134] Fig.13 The figure is a structural diagram of an optimized guide plate according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0135] like Fig.13 As shown in the figure, the guide plate with optimized design is adjusted to a 90-degree arc plus two straight line segments, and the placement angle is changed from 30 degrees to the left to 30 degrees to the right. The center points of the guide plate are basically the same, but the height arrangement is more compact. This guides the wind to blow upward, reduces the flow separation caused by the large deflection angle of the wind direction, and reduces the influence of the inner guide plate on the subsequent outer guide plate receiving the air volume. The internal flow of the optimized guide plate is re-simulated, and it is clearly observed that the airflow distribution is more uniform, the pressure drop, airflow concentration and wear near the filter bag are reduced, the life of the bag filter is increased, and the energy consumption is reduced, achieving the optimization action based on the analysis results.

[0136] Fig.14 1 is a comparison diagram of the airflow direction of the optimized guide plate and the original guide plate according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the optimized guide plate (left) vs. the original guide plate (right).

[0137] like Fig.14 As shown in the figure, before optimization, the airflow is concentrated on the second and third guide plates, and the velocity distribution in the upper filter bag area is uneven. After optimization, the airflow is more evenly distributed in the first, third, fourth, and fifth plates, and the airflow distribution in the upper filter bag area is more even.

[0138] Fig.15 This is a comparison diagram of the filter bag inlet velocity distribution of the optimized guide plate and the original guide plate according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the optimized guide plate (left) vs. the original guide plate (right).

[0139] like Fig.15 As shown in the figure, after optimizing the guide plate, the velocity distribution at the filter bag inlet is more uniform than before optimization, the air flow velocity of the inner filter bag is reduced, the air flow concentration is reduced, and most of the air flow is dispersed in the outer area.
