Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of water ring vacuum pumps, in particular to a water ring vacuum pump unit and a control method. BACKGROUND

[0002] A water ring vacuum pump is a volumetric pump that forms a vacuum through liquid sealing, and its core component is an eccentric cylindrical pump cavity with a radial blade impeller. When working, an appropriate amount of working liquid (usually water) is injected, and when the impeller rotates at high speed, the liquid is subjected to centrifugal force to form an equal-thickness water ring, which forms a periodically changing sealed space with the impeller, thereby realizing gas suction, compression and discharge. The pump has the characteristics of simple structure, stable operation, strong corrosion resistance, etc., and is widely used in the fields of gas suction, vacuum drying and material conveying in chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, food processing, etc. Its unique water circulation system can not only maintain the vacuum degree but also realize heat exchange, and is particularly suitable for working conditions containing a small amount of condensable gas, has low maintenance cost and strong pollution medium containment.

[0003] However, the traditional water ring vacuum pump has the problem of cavitation during operation: when the local pressure of the liquid in the pump drops below its saturated vapor pressure, the liquid vaporizes to form bubbles, and when these bubbles move to the high pressure area, they burst rapidly, producing shock waves that cause the surface material of the impeller to erode. Long-term cavitation can damage the impeller and affect the performance and service life of the pump. This phenomenon is particularly pronounced in high-temperature environments. SUMMARY

[0034] The flowchart used in the present application shows the operation of the system implementation according to some embodiments of the present specification. It should be clearly understood that the operations of the flowchart can not be implemented in sequence. On the contrary, the operations can be implemented in reverse order or simultaneously. In addition, one or more other operations can be added to the flowchart. One or more operations can be removed from the flowchart.

[0035] Regarding the drawings of this application, it should be clearly understood that the drawings are for illustration and description purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this specification. It should also be understood that the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this specification provides a water ring vacuum pump unit, including a first pipeline 1, a second pipeline 2, a third pipeline 3, a fourth pipeline 4, a vacuum pump 5, a steam-water separator 6 and a cooling unit 7. The first pipeline 1 is connected to the vacuum pump 5 for inputting gas therein, the vacuum pump 5 is connected to the steam-water separator 6 through the second pipeline 2, the steam-water separator 6 is connected to the cooling unit 7 through the third pipeline 3, and the steam-water separator 6 is connected to the vacuum pump 5 through the fourth pipeline 4. An exhaust pipe 8 is provided on the steam-water separator 6, and the steam-water separator 6 is used to separate the water vapor transported by the vacuum pump 5. The separated gas is discharged from the exhaust pipe 8, and the separated water is cooled by the cooling unit 7 and transported back to the vacuum pump 5. In this arrangement, the steam and water are separated by the steam-water separator 6, and the separated water is recirculated back to the vacuum pump 5, which reduces the waste of water resources and reduces water pollution. The separated water is cooled by the cooling unit and then returned to the vacuum pump, which effectively avoids the occurrence of cavitation and extends the service life of the vacuum pump.

[0037] A first control valve 9 is provided at the inlet end of the first pipeline 1. The first control valve 9 is used to control the flow rate of the gas, allowing the system to optimize the gas input under different working conditions, ensuring that the vacuum pump 5 operates in the best state, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire system.

[0038] In some embodiments, a fifth pipeline 10 is provided on the first pipeline 1, and a vacuum gauge 11 is provided on the fifth pipeline 10. By monitoring the vacuum level, the operator can promptly understand the pump's performance, detect faults or abnormalities early, and improve system reliability. A second control valve 12 is provided on either side of the vacuum gauge 11, connected to a third control valve 13 and the first pipeline 1. This allows the operator to flexibly adjust the gas flow rate when changes in the vacuum level are detected, helping to quickly respond to system changes and prevent excessive vacuum conditions, thereby avoiding damage to the vacuum pump, pipelines, and other components due to excessive vacuum pumping.

[0039] In some embodiments, a check valve 14 is provided on one end of the first pipeline 1 close to the vacuum pump 5 to prevent the gas from flowing back to the vacuum pump when the system stops or fails.

[0040] In some embodiments, an atmospheric ejector 15 is provided on the portion of the first pipeline 1 between the second control valve 12 and the third control valve 13, which uses atmospheric pressure to introduce external air into the system, which can provide additional airflow when the vacuum pump is working, thereby improving the fluidity of the gas and the suction capacity of the pump.

[0041] In some embodiments, the water level meter 16 is arranged on the steam-water separator 6, the water inlet pipe 17 and the water outlet pipe 18 are arranged on the steam-water separator 6, the water inlet control valve is arranged on the water inlet pipe 17, and the water outlet control valve is arranged on the water outlet pipe 18. The water level meter 16 can monitor the liquid level in the steam-water separator in real time, ensure that the water quantity of the water ring pump during the working process always meets the requirements, and help to improve the working efficiency and stability of the pump.

[0042] The first temperature sensor is arranged on the first pipeline 1 for detecting the ambient temperature, the second temperature sensor is arranged on the third pipeline 3 for detecting the temperature of the water input into the cooling unit 7, i.e. the backflow water temperature, the third temperature sensor is arranged on the fourth pipeline 4 for detecting the temperature of the cooling water, and the fourth control valve 19 is arranged on the fourth pipeline 4 for controlling the flow of the cooling water. The fourth temperature sensor is arranged on the vacuum pump 5 for detecting the working temperature of the vacuum pump 5. In this way, by monitoring the temperatures of the key parts in real time, potential problems can be found in time, so that corresponding measures can be taken to prevent equipment damage or failure and improve the safety of the system.

[0043] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The sixth pipeline 20 is arranged on the exhaust pipe 8 and connected to the first pipeline 1 through the sixth pipeline 20, and is generally connected between the first control valve 9 and the atmospheric ejector 15. The fifth control valve 21 is arranged on the sixth pipeline 20 close to one end of the exhaust pipe 8, so as to avoid that the gas discharged from the steam-water separator 6 affects the normal suction of the gas in the first pipeline 1 when the fifth control valve 21 is not opened. The seventh pipeline 22 is arranged between the steam-water separator 6 and the inlet end of the vacuum pump 5, and the sixth control valve 23 is arranged on the seventh pipeline 22 close to the steam-water separator 6.

[0044] It should be understood that in the water ring vacuum pump unit, each control valve is set as an on-off valve, a flow regulating valve, etc. according to the required function, and the valves in the drawings are only schematic. Each temperature sensor can use a temperature detector commonly used in the fields of pipelines, pump bodies, and valves.

[0045] As shown in Figure 5 Based on the above water ring vacuum pump unit, a control method is provided in the present specification, which comprises the following steps:

[0046] S1: Obtain the ambient temperature based on the first temperature sensor, and compare it with the pre-stored optimal working temperature of the vacuum pump 5 to generate the estimated temperature of the cooling water according to the difference between the two. If the ambient temperature is higher than the optimal working temperature, the temperature of the gas entering the vacuum pump will be higher, so the temperature of the cooling water needs to be lowered, and generally needs to be lowered below the optimal working temperature.

[0047] If the current ambient temperature is lower than the optimal working temperature, open the fifth control valve 21 and the sixth control valve 23, and adjust the opening of the fourth control valve 19 according to the actual working temperature obtained by the fourth temperature sensor to control the actual working temperature to approach the optimal working temperature.

[0048] When the actual working temperature is lower than the optimal working temperature, close the fourth control valve 19 and reduce the power of the cooling unit 7 or shut down the cooling unit 7.

[0049] S2: Based on the fourth temperature sensor, the actual working temperature of the vacuum pump 5 is obtained in real time, the deviation value from the optimal working temperature is calculated, and based on the current deviation value, the estimated temperature is progressively corrected according to the preset convergence coefficient until the absolute value of the deviation value does not exceed the allowed range; the preset convergence coefficient is used to avoid overshoot or oscillation. The allowed range, i.e. the deviation range, is set according to the actual working condition, such as ±1℃, which is a common industrial standard. For example, the initial estimated temperature is 38℃, but the actual working temperature is 48℃, the deviation is +8℃. According to the preset convergence coefficient, such as a convergence coefficient of 0.5, the correction amount is the deviation multiplied by the coefficient, i.e. 4℃. In this way, the cooling water temperature is reduced to 34℃, and the actual temperature is detected again until the deviation enters the allowed range.

[0050] Further, when aggressive correction is adopted to quickly eliminate large deviations. Among them, is the deviation of the actual working temperature and the optimal working temperature.

[0051] In the interval, proportional-integral adjustment is started to avoid overshoot and .

[0052] After , it is switched to a maintenance mode and only compensates for slight fluctuations.

[0053] This method only uses temperature sensors for feedback control, without the need for a large amount of calculation and strong real-time performance. Specifically, if the optimal temperature of the cooling water is calculated directly according to the optimal working temperature of the vacuum pump and the ambient temperature, the heat balance model needs to be involved. The heat generated by the vacuum pump needs to be taken away by the cooling water, and the ambient air sucked in will also bring in or take away heat, depending on the difference between the ambient temperature and the internal temperature of the pump. Therefore, the heat balance equation needs to consider the heat exchange of these two parts, and the flow rate of the intake air and the flow rate of the cooling liquid need to be considered.

[0054] When the ambient temperature is higher than the optimal working temperature, the ambient air will bring additional heat, and in this case, the cooling water temperature needs to be lower than the optimal working temperature to provide stronger cooling capacity to offset the heat brought by the ambient air. Conversely, when the ambient temperature is lower than the optimal working temperature, the ambient air may help cooling, and in this case, the cooling water temperature can be appropriately increased to reduce cooling energy consumption. Therefore, the determination of the optimal cooling water temperature should be a dynamic adjustment process, which is calculated in real time according to the change of the ambient temperature. This may need to establish a mathematical model to quantify the relationship between the ambient temperature and the cooling water temperature. This requires a large amount of data collection and data calculation.

[0055] In step S2, based on the backflow water temperature obtained by the second temperature sensor, the cooling power of the cooling unit 7 is adjusted so that the cooling water temperature approaches the estimated temperature, ensuring that the cooling unit 7 is quickly adjusted.

[0056] Based on the actual temperature of the cooling water obtained by the third temperature sensor, it is compared with the estimated temperature. If it exceeds the tolerance range, the cooling power of the cooling unit 7 is readjusted, and an additional calibration is performed to improve the reliability of the system.

[0057] S3: In the database, record the operation data set formed by the optimal working temperature, ambient temperature, estimated temperature, actual working temperature and deviation value in each adjustment process. When the deviation amount of the new data set is less than the same working condition historical record, perform data optimization replacement; wherein the same working condition is the same optimal working temperature and ambient temperature;

[0058] S4: When the water ring vacuum pump unit is running subsequently, the corresponding estimated temperature in the database is directly called based on the ambient temperature. If there is no same ambient temperature, the estimated temperature corresponding to the similar ambient temperature is used, and then steps S2 and S3 are repeatedly executed.

[0059] By using the above method, the continuous evolution of the control system is realized by establishing a working condition-temperature self-optimization database. The estimated temperature under the same working condition is dynamically calibrated and optimized at the data level, which not only ensures the reliable estimation ability at the initial stage of the new working condition, but also automatically selects better operation parameters through the deviation amount comparison mechanism to continuously converge and improve the temperature estimation accuracy of the system under repeated working conditions. After optimization, the temperature control deviation under the same working condition can be reduced, while avoiding the real-time calculation load required by traditional model predictive control, and both control accuracy and response speed are considered.
