Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of steam turbine cooling, in particular to a steam turbine forced cooling device. Background Art

Consequently, when disassembly work is required for regular inspections or in the event of a turbine failure, cooling to a temperature at which rotation can cease through natural heat dissipation takes considerable time. During this period, power cannot be supplied. Therefore, minimizing this cooling time is desirable for both stable power supply and economic efficiency.

[0004] The above technical solution utilizes a combination of a traditional cooling gas tank and an exhaust pump to improve the cooling efficiency of the steam turbine. However, since the temperature of the surrounding environment will rise when the steam turbine is working, the gas drawn in by the exhaust pump is mostly high-temperature gas, resulting in poor cooling effect on the steam turbine and low cooling efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a steam turbine forced cooling device, comprising a steam turbine body and a steam inlet pipe and a steam outlet pipe installed at both ends of the steam turbine body, a drip outlet pipe being fixed at the bottom end of the steam turbine body, and an exhaust pipe rack being fixedly installed on the side wall of the steam turbine body, a water storage cooling box being fixed below the drip outlet pipe, an intake cooling pipe being fixedly installed at the top of the water storage cooling box, and moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates being equidistantly fixed in the water storage cooling box, a first solenoid valve being installed on the exhaust pipe rack, and a hollow mounting rack being provided on the side wall of the exhaust pipe rack, wherein an exhaust mechanism is embedded in the hollow mounting rack.

The accumulated water droplets flow along the bottom of the steam turbine and the drip outlet pipe into the water storage cooling box for natural cooling.

The external air enters the water storage cooling box along the air intake cooling pipe and is discharged between multiple moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates. After flowing through the water storage tank, the water flows along the drip outlet pipe to dissipate heat to the steam turbine body and is then discharged from the exhaust pipe rack. During the flow of air, the water on the hygroscopic guide panel evaporates quickly, thereby absorbing the heat in the air, greatly reducing the air temperature for cooling the steam turbine body and improving the heat dissipation effect of the steam turbine. An overflow pipe is fixed on the water storage cooling box. When there is too much water in the water storage cooling box, the water is discharged along the overflow pipe, thereby maintaining an air flow channel at the top of the water storage cooling box.

[0024] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0025] A steam turbine forced cooling device, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a steam turbine body 1 and a steam inlet pipe 2 and a steam outlet pipe 21 installed at both ends of the steam turbine body 1. A cooling device is installed on the air inlet pipe. Circulating cooling using the cooling device is common knowledge in the field and will not be described in detail here. When the temperature is too high, the control valve 5 is closed for forced cooling. The control valve 5 can be replaced by an electrically controlled valve connected to the temperature monitoring controller 3. A drip outlet pipe 9 is fixed to the bottom end of the steam turbine body 1, and an exhaust pipe rack 15 is fixed to the side wall of the steam turbine body 1. A water storage cooling box 8 is fixed below the drip outlet pipe 9. An air intake cooling pipe 6 is fixed to the top of the water storage cooling box 8, and a moisture-absorbing guide cotton plate 20 is fixed at an equal distance in the water storage cooling box 8. A first solenoid valve 7 is installed on the exhaust pipe rack 15, and a hollow mounting rack 17 is provided on the side wall of the exhaust pipe rack 15. An exhaust mechanism is embedded in the hollow mounting rack 17. A small amount of water droplets will be generated during the flow of water through the pipeline in the steam turbine body 1. The accumulated water droplets flow along the bottom of the steam turbine and the drip outlet pipe 9 into the water storage cooling box 8 for natural cooling. When the temperature sensor module at the bottom of the temperature monitoring controller 3 detects that the temperature in the steam turbine body 1 is too high, it closes the control valve 5 on the steam inlet pipe 2 and the steam outlet pipe 21 respectively, and starts the high-speed exhaust fan 19, the first solenoid valve 7 and the second solenoid to circulate air in the steam turbine body 1. The external air enters the water storage cooling box 8 along the intake cooling pipe 6, flows between multiple moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates 20, and then flows along the drip outlet pipe 9 to dissipate heat to the steam turbine body 1 and is discharged from the exhaust pipe rack 15. During the flow of air, the moisture on the moisture-absorbing guide panel evaporates rapidly, thereby absorbing heat in the air, greatly reducing the air temperature for cooling the steam turbine body 1.
[0026] An overflow pipe 12 is fixedly installed at the center of the side wall of the water storage cooling box 8, and a U-shaped anti-deflation elbow 16 is provided at the center of the overflow pipe 12. Arc-shaped sealing frames 11 are provided at both ends of the steam turbine body 1, and sealing connection parts 4 are provided on the steam turbine body 1 and the arc-shaped sealing frames 11. A first bolt 10 is provided between the two sealing connection parts 4 on the same side. A plurality of first bolts 10 are arranged in a circular array on the side wall of the sealing connection part 4, and the first bolt 10 passes through one end of the sealing connection part 4 and is threaded with a nut. After the nut is tightened, the first bolt 10 squeezes and fixes the two sealing connection parts 4, thereby improving The arc-shaped sealing frame 11 is installed to ensure tightness. The steam inlet pipe 2 and the steam outlet pipe 21 are respectively installed on the two arc-shaped sealing frames 11. The side wall of the exhaust pipe frame 15 is installed with a second bolt 13 threadedly inserted into the arc-shaped sealing frame 11 in a circular array. When there is too much water in the water storage cooling box 8, the water is discharged along the overflow pipe 12, so that the top of the water storage cooling box 8 maintains an air flow channel. At the same time, the first solenoid valve 7 on the air release elbow and the intake cooling pipe 6 keeps the water storage cooling box 8 relatively sealed. At the same time, the second solenoid valve 14 keeps the exhaust pipe frame 15 sealed, avoiding leakage of steam during the flow process.
[0027] Furthermore, a second solenoid valve 14 is installed at the top of the intake cooling pipe 6, and a cooling channel is provided between the multiple moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates 20. A temperature monitoring controller 3 is embedded and fixed at the top of the steam turbine body 1. The temperature monitoring controller 3 is electrically connected to the first solenoid valve 7 and the second solenoid valve 14 respectively, and a temperature sensing module is installed at one end of the temperature controller extending into the steam turbine body 1. The hollow mounting frame 17 is a funnel-shaped structure fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe frame 15. The exhaust mechanism includes a high-speed exhaust fan 19 and a dust-proof net 18 arranged in the hollow mounting frame 17. The dust-proof net 18 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the high-speed exhaust fan 19. Slots are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the water storage cooling box 8. Both ends of the moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates 20 are embedded and connected to the slots on the inner wall of the water storage cooling box 8. A steam impeller is rotatably installed at the center position of the steam turbine body 1, and the steam inlet pipe 2 is connected to the impeller of the steam turbine body 1. Corresponding to the sheet, a small amount of water droplets will be generated during the flow of steam through the pipeline in the steam turbine main body 1. The accumulated water droplets flow along the bottom of the steam turbine and the drip outlet pipe 9 into the water storage cooling box 8 for natural cooling. When the temperature sensing module at the bottom of the temperature monitoring controller 3 detects that the temperature in the steam turbine main body 1 is too high, it closes the control valve 5 on the steam inlet pipe 2 and the steam outlet pipe 21 respectively, and starts the high-speed exhaust fan 19, the first solenoid valve 7 and the second solenoid to circulate air in the steam turbine main body 1. The external air enters the water storage cooling box 8 along the intake cooling pipe 6, flows between multiple moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates 20, and then flows along the drip outlet pipe 9 to dissipate heat to the steam turbine main body 1 and is discharged from the exhaust pipe rack 15. During the flow of air, the moisture on the moisture-absorbing guide panel evaporates rapidly, thereby absorbing heat in the air, greatly reducing the air temperature for cooling the steam turbine main body 1.
[0028] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when in use, a small amount of water droplets will be generated in the process of steam flowing through the steam inlet pipe 2 and the steam outlet pipe 21 in the steam turbine body 1. The accumulated water droplets flow along the bottom of the steam turbine and the drip outlet pipe 9 into the water storage cooling box 8 for natural cooling. When the temperature sensing module at the bottom of the temperature monitoring controller 3 detects that the temperature in the steam turbine body 1 is too high, the control valves 5 on the steam inlet pipe 2 and the steam outlet pipe 21 are closed respectively, and the high-speed exhaust fan 19, the first solenoid valve 7 and the second solenoid are started to circulate air in the steam turbine body 1. The external air enters the water storage cooling box 8 along the intake cooling pipe 6, flows between multiple moisture-absorbing guide cotton plates 20, and then flows along the drip outlet pipe. 9 After the heat is dissipated from the steam turbine body 1, it is discharged from the exhaust pipe rack 15. During the flow of air, the moisture on the hygroscopic guide panel evaporates quickly, thereby absorbing the heat in the air, greatly reducing the air temperature for cooling the steam turbine body 1, and improving the heat dissipation effect of the steam turbine; an overflow pipe 12 is fixed on the water storage cooling box. When there is too much water in the water storage cooling box 8, the water is discharged along the overflow pipe 12, so that the top of the water storage cooling box 8 maintains an air flow channel, and at the same time, the first solenoid valve 7 on the air discharge elbow and the intake cooling pipe 6 keeps the water storage cooling box 8 relatively sealed, and the second solenoid valve 14 keeps the exhaust pipe rack 15 sealed, avoiding leakage of steam during the flow.
