Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of condensate water recovery of generator set, and particularly relates to a method for recovering condensate water of a direct air-cooling generator set. BACKGROUND

[0002] The direct air-cooling generator set has many advantages such as small water consumption, small land occupation and high social economy, and is widely used in the northern region with rich coal and lack of water. However, the direct air-cooling generator set also has problems such as high back pressure, large range of back pressure change in a year and high coal consumption. Influenced by the environmental temperature, the back pressure of the exhaust steam of the direct air-cooling generator set can reach 40-60 kPa in the high temperature period in summer, and the back pressure is less than 10 kPa in winter. In order to improve the heat exchange efficiency, the air and other non-condensing gases leaked into the exhaust device, the pipeline and the air-cooling condenser need to be pumped out by the vacuum pump.

[0003] The condenser vacuum system of the direct air-cooling generator set is generally provided with 2-3 water ring vacuum pumps with large power. When the steam turbine generator set is started, the vacuum pumps are started at the same time, and are used for quickly pumping the condenser and the connected pipeline system. After the steam turbine generator set is put into stable operation, 1-2 running vacuum pumps are used for pumping out the non-condensing gases leaked into the vacuum system, and maintaining the vacuum of the condenser system, and the remaining water ring vacuum pumps are standby. However, the conventional water ring vacuum pump group needs liquid ring sealing, and the working efficiency is low. The limit vacuum and the pumping capacity of the water ring vacuum pump have great relationship with the working water temperature. In winter, the limit vacuum of the water ring vacuum pump is limited, and the pumping capacity is greatly reduced. Generally, 2 vacuum pumps need to be operated, so as to maintain the vacuum of the generator set, and the energy consumption of the equipment is increased.

[0004] In order to improve the vacuum of the generator set, reduce the back pressure of the generator set and reduce the power consumption of the water ring vacuum pump group, there is a part of the reform structure that a large amount of Roots vacuum pump and inter-stage cooler are connected in series in front of the water ring vacuum pump to form a Roots-water ring vacuum pump group, so as to improve the vacuum of the generator set in winter. However, in other seasons, due to the high environmental temperature, the back pressure of the generator set is increased, the pumping capacity of the water ring vacuum pump meets the demand, the Roots vacuum pump is not operated, and the high efficiency and energy saving advantage of the dry Roots vacuum pump is not played in the spring, autumn and summer period.

[0005] In addition, due to the great change of the back pressure of the direct air-cooling generator set in summer and winter, the recovery of the condensate water pumped out by the inter-stage cooler behind the Roots vacuum pump is a difficult problem. In summer, the back pressure of the direct air-cooling generator set can reach 40-60 kPa, and the inter-stage cooler behind the Roots vacuum pump adopts water cooling, and the pressure of the steam (shell) side is generally less than 10 kPa. The condensate water of the inter-stage cooler and the exhaust device of the main machine form a pressure difference of 30-50 kPa, that is, a height difference of 3-5 m of water column, so that the condensate water of the main machine is returned to the inter-stage cooler, and the Roots vacuum pump group cannot be normally operated. Or the foundation of the inter-stage cooler is 3 m-5 m high, and the construction demand cannot be met on site. SUMMARY

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a method for recovering vacuum condensing water of a direct air-cooling unit, which can solve the problem that the vacuum condensing water of the inter-stage cooler of the Roots vacuum pump set cannot be normally recovered during the period of high temperature and high load in the environment due to the large change of the back pressure of the main unit exhaust device throughout the year, and effectively improve the economy and safety of the operation of the direct air-cooling unit.

[0022] A method for recovering condensate from a direct air-cooled unit under vacuum, such as... Figs. 1-2 As shown, this method is based on a vacuum condensate recovery system for a direct air-cooled unit. This system includes an air-cooled island condenser 1, a main unit exhaust system 4, and a controller. The controller uses a DCS distributed control system for regulation. The air-cooled island condenser 1 is connected to the main unit exhaust system 4 via a vacuum header 2. A vacuum valve 5 for the main unit exhaust system is installed on the vacuum header 2 near the outlet of the main unit exhaust system 4. The vacuum header 2 is connected to a water ring vacuum pump group and a high-efficiency Roots vacuum pump group via branch pipes 3, meaning the water ring vacuum pump group and the high-efficiency Roots vacuum pump group are connected in parallel.

[0023] The water ring vacuum pump set is used to operate during the generator set startup or shutdown phase to evacuate the vacuum header 2 between the air-cooled island condenser 1 and the main unit exhaust device 4; the high-efficiency Roots vacuum pump set is used during the normal operation phase of the unit to achieve effective recovery of condensate while evacuating the vacuum.

[0024] The structure of the water ring vacuum pump set is conventional and has not been modified. It is generally connected to the interstage cooler through the water ring vacuum pump, and its structure will not be described in detail here.

[0027] Step S1 is mainly used to determine whether the running method of the application needs to be implemented by determining the highest back pressure value, and the division of the "low back pressure range" and the "high back pressure range" is determined according to the back pressure economic running range and the limit running range of the unit of this type known in the art.

[0028] The "low back pressure range" refers to the highest back pressure value P 11 not higher than the design back pressure value or the rated back pressure value of the unit under the summer design cooling water temperature and full load working condition; and the "high back pressure range" refers to the highest back pressure value P 11 higher than the design back pressure value or the rated back pressure value.

[0029] When the highest back pressure value is in the high back pressure range, the problem of the condensate water backflow to the inter-stage cooler to cause the high-efficiency Roots vacuum pump set to be unable to run mentioned in the background technology will occur, therefore, the running method provided by the application is needed to solve the problem.
