DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.
[0032] The terms used in the present invention are those commonly used in the art in view of the functions of the present invention, but these terms may vary according to the intentions of those skilled in the art, precedents, or new technologies in the art. In addition, specific terms may be selected by the applicant, and in such cases, their detailed meanings will be described in the detailed description of the present invention. Therefore, the terms used in the specification should not be understood as simple names, but rather as the meanings of the terms and the overall description of the present invention.
[0033] See also Figures 1 to 9The present invention preferably provides a technical solution: a high-efficiency flue gas waste heat recovery device, comprising: a waste heat recovery component assembled with the flue gas outlet of the evaporator; a circulation pipe component arranged on one side of the waste heat recovery component, wherein the waste heat recovery component converts the waste heat of the flue gas inside it into usable energy through the heat exchange principle, thereby realizing the preheating process of the circulating water inside the circulation pipe component; the waste heat recovery component comprises two supports 111, and a plurality of cylinders 112 assembled between the two supports 111, wherein adjacent cylinders 112 are connected through a pipe 114 arranged therebetween, and the inlet and outlet ends of the circulation pipe component are connected. It is respectively connected to the head and tail cylinders 112; it also includes a number of flue gas ducts that run across the cylinders 112, and each flue gas duct includes a branch pipe 113 that is arranged between adjacent cylinders 112 and can rotate, and a transmission pipe 511 that is placed inside each cylinder 112 and connected and fixed to the adjacent branch pipe 113, and the diameter of the transmission pipe 511 decreases from the middle to the two ends; it also includes spiral guide plates 512 symmetrically fixed on the outer wall of each transmission pipe 511. When the flue gas duct rotates, the two opposite spiral guide plates 512 generate counter-vortexes to slow down the flow rate of the circulating water.
[0034] Combine Figure 1 、 2 As shown, a plurality of cylinders 112 are placed between two supports 111 and are connected through the pipe body 114 arranged therebetween. At the same time, the circulation pipe assembly is connected with the first and last cylinders 112, that is, the circulation process of the circulating water is realized. A plurality of flue gas pipes pass through the interior of the plurality of cylinders 112 and are assembled with the flue gas outlet of the evaporator to establish a branch flow of the flue gas path. Here, the flue gas and the circulating water are distributed inside and outside, and the flue gas is combined with the flue gas outlet. Figure 2 、 3 As shown in FIG4 , when the cylinder 112 and the flue gas duct provided in the cylinder 112 are respectively filled with circulating water and hot flue gas, the preheating process of the circulating water can be achieved by utilizing the heat conduction principle;
[0035] In order to enhance the efficiency of heat conduction between the two, Figure 7 、 8 As shown, the outer wall of a single transmission pipe 511 provided by the present invention has two spiral guide plates 512 symmetrically distributed. When the flue gas duct rotates, the two spiral guide plates 512 can generate a localized counter-vortex flow inside the corresponding cylinder 112, thereby slowing down the flow rate of the circulating water. Simultaneously with this process, the diameter of the transmission pipe 511 decreases from the middle to both ends. Figure 5 、 7 As shown in FIG. 8 , the flue gas injected into the transmission pipe 511 is gradually decelerated when passing through the middle of the transmission pipes 511 , thereby extending the contact time between the flue gas and the circulating water and improving the heat conduction efficiency between the two.
[0036] The flue gas waste heat recovery design of the present invention achieves a win-win situation in terms of energy, environment and economy by "turning waste into treasure". The flue gas pipeline is arranged in a single transmission pipe 511 whose diameter decreases from the middle to both ends. The spiral guide plates 512 symmetrically arranged on the outer periphery of the transmission pipe 511 are used to slow down the flow rate of the flue gas and circulating water, thereby extending the heat conduction time between the two and enhancing the heat conduction efficiency of the two.
[0037] The circulating water inside the circulating pipe assembly here can preferably be the condensate of the low-temperature economizer, which can increase the inlet condensate temperature of the low-temperature economizer from 50°C to 100°C-120°C, thereby improving the blockage problem of the low-temperature economizer.
[0038] Furthermore, a first rotating sealing plug is provided between each branch pipe 113 and the two cylinders 112 connected thereto. This design can improve the stability of the flue gas duct when it rotates relative to the cylinder 112 .
