Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of iron and steel metallurgy, and particularly relates to a high-temperature thermocouple fixing structure and method for a blast furnace hot blast stove. Background Art
[0002] Thermocouples are designed and installed on the hot blast stove body and hot air pipeline. The hot blast stove operators carry out process operations based on the temperature detection values of each part. When the high-temperature thermocouple of the hot blast stove body is damaged, the furnace operators have no basis for firing the stove, which easily causes damage to the refractory materials of the hot blast stove. For example, when the hot air temperature thermocouple is damaged, the hot air temperature of the blast furnace fluctuates, resulting in fluctuations in the smelting furnace condition of the blast furnace and affecting the smooth operation of the blast furnace. In the design of the hot blast stove system, electric coupling installation holes are reserved in the furnace masonry. To facilitate the installation and rapid replacement of the thermocouple, the current high-temperature thermocouples are all designed with integral flange connections. The thermocouples selected for the high-temperature area are of type B or S, with a platinum-rhodium thermocouple wire as the material, a measuring range of 0 - 1500 °C, and the price of a single unit is 10,000 - 50,000 yuan. The purchased service life of the thermocouple is greater than 1 year. In the actual production process, the thermocouples are replaced frequently. The reasons are analyzed as follows: (1) The quality of the thermocouple products is poor and the service life is short. (2) The refractory bricks expand and damage the ceramic protection sleeve of the thermocouple. (3) The replacement of the thermocouple causes damage to the ceramic protection sleeve of the thermocouple. Through the tracking investigation of thermocouple damage, it is found that the main reasons for thermocouple damage are the installation of the thermocouple and the expansion of the refractory bricks.
[0003] When replacing and installing the thermocouple, after the thermocouple is removed, the construction personnel clean the flange surface and then directly install the new thermocouple. Due to the different degrees of deformation of the short pipe and flange of the thermocouple installation hole under the influence of temperature and refractory brick expansion during the production process, the flange of the new thermocouple installation is horizontal, and the deformation of the short pipe flange is not serious, resulting in a slight inclination of the thermocouple pipe flange. The high-temperature expansion of the refractory bricks shears the thermocouple pipe, reducing the service life of the thermocouple. When the deformation of the short pipe flange is serious, the thermocouple pipe is inclined and crushed by the refractory bricks during the process of tightening the upper and lower flanges, resulting in direct damage to the thermocouple. During the process of tightening the flanges, the sealing gasket is likely to leak air, causing a burning-through accident.
[0004] In view of the above factors, a high-temperature thermocouple fixing structure and method for a blast furnace hot blast stove are provided to prevent damage to the thermocouple during the installation process and extend the service life of the thermocouple. Summary of the Invention
