[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a boiler four-tube leakage monitoring method.

[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a boiler four-tube system.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] A boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device includes a measurement pipeline, a pressure sensor, and a controller. The measurement pipeline is used to be inserted into the boiler four tubes, and the pressure sensor is communicated with the inner cavity of the measurement pipeline;

[0012] The transmission module is used to transmit the signal;

[0013] The judgment module is used to compare the preset pressure value with the actual pressure value and judge whether the actual pressure value is within the range of the preset pressure value;

[0014] The display module is used to display the judgment result.

[0015] Optionally, it further includes an alarm, and the alarm is electrically connected to the controller.

[0016] Optionally, the pressure sensor is disposed at the end of the measurement pipeline.

[0017] Optionally, it further includes a purging pipeline and a gas source. One end of the purging pipeline is communicated with the measurement pipeline, and the other end is communicated with the gas source.

[0019] Optionally, it further includes a sleeve, and the sleeve is sleeved on the end of the measurement pipeline in contact with the four tubes of the boiler.

[0032] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device, which can effectively improve the stability of the monitoring process and reduce the probability of false alarms and missed alarms.

[0033] Another purpose of the present invention is also to provide a boiler four-tube leakage monitoring method.

[0034] Another purpose of the present invention is also to provide a boiler four-tube system.

[0035] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 , the boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention includes a measurement pipeline 100, a pressure sensor 200 and a controller.

Among them, the pressure sensor 200 is electrically connected to the controller and is used to transmit signals to the controller.

[0037] The pressure sensor 200 monitors the actual pressure value of the measurement pipeline 100 in real time and transmits the signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller compares the actual pressure value with the preset pressure value to judge whether the actual pressure value is within the range of the preset pressure value. If the actual pressure value is within the range of the preset pressure value, the monitoring continues. If the actual pressure value is not within the range of the preset pressure value, it indicates that the boiler four tubes 500 may leak, and the staff needs to check on site.

[0038] The boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention monitors the pressure of the measurement pipeline 100 by using the pressure sensor 200 to determine whether there is leakage in the boiler four tubes 500. Compared with the prior art, since the pressure sensor 200 is less affected by environmental noise and the like, the stability of the monitoring process can be effectively improved, and the probability of false alarms and missed alarms can be reduced.

[0039] It should be noted that the boiler four tubes 500 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention can be the four tubes of a natural circulation boiler, a forced circulation boiler, a once-through boiler, and a combined cycle boiler. The "four tubes" specifically refer to the water wall, superheater, reheater, and economizer.

[0040] It should be noted that the controller includes a storage module, a transmission module, a judgment module, and a display module. Specifically, the storage module is used to store the preset pressure value in the measurement pipeline 100; the transmission module is used to transmit signals; the judgment module is used to compare the preset pressure value with the actual pressure value and determine whether the actual pressure value is within the range of the preset pressure value; the display module is used to display the judgment result.

[0041] As a specific embodiment, the display module can be a display screen to display the judgment result of the controller for the staff to view.

[0042] As a further embodiment, the boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention further includes an alarm, wherein the alarm is electrically connected to the controller. When the controller determines that the actual pressure value is not within the range of the preset pressure value, a signal can be transmitted to the alarm to prompt the staff through the alarm, so as to facilitate the staff to check in time whether there is leakage in the boiler four tubes 500.

[0043] The pressure sensor 200 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention can be arranged on the measurement pipeline body or at the end of the measurement pipeline. The embodiments of the present invention do not limit its specific position.

[0044] For the convenience of installation, the pressure sensor 200 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention is arranged at the end of the measurement pipeline 100.

[0045] Since during the operation of the boiler, combustion ash may enter the measurement pipeline 100 and cause blockage to the measurement pipeline 100, therefore, the boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention further includes a purge pipeline 300 and a gas source. One end of the purge pipeline 300 is connected to the measurement pipeline 100, and the other end is connected to the gas source.

[0046] When the gas source is turned on, gas can enter the purge pipeline 300 to clean the purge pipeline 300, and the gas source can be turned off after the cleaning is completed.

[0047] To achieve automatic control, a solenoid valve is further provided in the purging pipeline 300 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention. The solenoid valve is electrically connected to the controller, and the gas source is in a directly connected state. The on-off of the solenoid valve is controlled by the controller to realize whether the gas purges the purging pipeline 300 or not.

[0048] To reduce the heat transferred from the four boiler tubes 500 to the pressure sensor 200, the boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention further includes a sleeve 400. The sleeve 400 is sleeved on the end of the measuring pipeline 100 in contact with the four boiler tubes 500.

[0049] With such a setting, not only can the direct friction between the measuring pipeline 100 and the four boiler tubes 500 be avoided, the service life of the measuring pipeline 100 can be improved, but also the heat transferred from the four boiler tubes 500 to the pressure sensor 200 can be greatly reduced, so that the ambient temperature where the pressure sensor 200 is located is within an acceptable range, avoiding damages such as component deformation and performance deterioration caused by high temperature. In addition, the service life of the pressure sensor 200 is improved, the replacement frequency is reduced, the maintenance cost is reduced, and the operation efficiency of the entire monitoring device is improved.

[0050] The embodiments of the present invention do not limit the specific material of the sleeve 400. The sleeve 400 can be ceramic, or a metal sleeve 400 wrapped with a high-performance heat insulation coating, etc.

[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the sleeve 400 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention is made of ceramic material.

[0052] The embodiments of the present invention also disclose a method for monitoring the leakage of the four boiler tubes 500, including:

[0053] S100: Monitor the actual pressure value inside the measuring pipeline 100 and transmit the signal.

[0054] S200: Judge whether the actual pressure value is within the preset pressure value range. If so, continue to execute S100. If not, check whether the four boiler tubes are leaking.

[0055] The pressure sensor 200 monitors the actual pressure value of the measuring pipeline 100 in real time and transmits the signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller compares the actual pressure value with the preset pressure value to judge whether the actual pressure value is within the preset pressure value range. If the actual pressure value is within the preset pressure value range, continue to monitor. If the actual pressure value is not within the preset pressure value range, it indicates that the four boiler tubes 500 may be leaking, and the staff needs to check on-site.

[0056] The boiler four-tube leakage monitoring method disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention monitors the pressure of the measurement pipeline 100 by using the pressure sensor 200 to determine whether the boiler four-tubes 500 are leaking. Compared with the prior art, since the pressure sensor 200 is less affected by environmental noise and the like, the stability of the monitoring process can be effectively improved, and the probability of false alarms and missed alarms can be reduced.

[0057] The embodiments of the present invention also disclose a boiler four-tube system, including the boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device disclosed in any one of the above embodiments.

[0058] Among them, the boiler four-tube system has multiple pressure monitoring positions, there are multiple boiler four-tube leakage monitoring devices, and each pressure monitoring position is provided with a boiler four-tube leakage monitoring device.

[0059] With such a setting, comprehensive monitoring of the boiler four-tube system can be achieved. When the alarms of one or several boiler four-tube leakage monitoring devices sound, the staff can check whether there is leakage at the corresponding position of the boiler four-tube system.
