TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mechanical seal cooling, and is a self-circulation cooling device and a circulation cooling method for mechanical seal of a multiphase mixed conveying pump. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, Xinjiang oilfield has carried out large-scale closed gathering and transportation process system for heavy oil exploitation. Due to the complexity of the closed gathering and transportation medium (high temperature, crude oil, water, sand, steam, natural gas, etc.), the comprehensive performance requirements of the conveying equipment are extremely high. Domestic conventional pumps, such as centrifugal pumps, plunger pumps and gear pumps, are not suitable for conveying such medium.
[0003] Generally, the leakage failure of the pump body is mainly due to the damage of the friction surface of the mechanical seal of the pump body due to long-term friction. The mechanical seal refers to a device for preventing fluid leakage, which is formed by at least one pair of end faces perpendicular to the rotation axis under the action of fluid pressure and the elastic force (or magnetic force) of the compensation mechanism and the cooperation of the auxiliary seal. The auxiliary seal of the compensation ring is a metal bellows, which is called bellows mechanical seal.
[0004] In order to ensure the operation of the oilfield closed gathering and transportation process system, single and double screw pumps are currently used, but they also struggle to support the closed gathering and transportation task. The pump body, rotor and mechanical seal mechanism of the double screw pump are easily worn under the sand-containing medium condition, and the average service life is about 3 months. The rubber stator of the single screw pump is easily softened and damaged at high temperature, and the average service life is 5 to 8 months. In order to maintain normal production of the oilfield, continuous maintenance and a large number of spare parts are needed to maintain the operation of the gathering and transportation process system. The short service life of single and double screw pumps, the difficulty, long duration and high cost of maintenance seriously affect the production and operation of the oilfield.
[0005] Therefore, Xinjiang oilfield has carried out a pilot test of using a blade type multiphase mixed conveying pump in the gathering and transportation process system. According to the field operation, the blade type multiphase mixed conveying pump can well solve the problems encountered by the single and double screw pumps. However, the high temperature wear between the mechanical seal mechanism of the blade type multiphase mixed conveying pump and the pump shaft directly affects the safe operation of the blade type multiphase mixed conveying pump, and in severe cases, it will cause the interruption of the oilfield gathering and transportation process system, causing great economic loss to the enterprise.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and the specific implementation can be determined according to the technical solution of the present invention and the actual situation.
[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments: Example 1: As shown in the attached document Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, the self-circulating cooling device for the mechanical seal of the multiphase mixed-transfer pump is characterized by comprising a multiphase mixed-transfer pump 1 and a liquid tank 2. The multiphase mixed-transfer pump 1 includes a motor 3, a pump shaft 4, a compression chamber 5, and a pump casing 6. The motor 3 is fixedly installed on the right end of the pump shaft 4. A left end face mechanical seal mechanism 7 and a right end face mechanical seal mechanism 8 are fixedly installed on the left and right ends of the compression chamber 5, respectively. A left bearing 9 and a right bearing 10 are respectively arranged around and supported on the left and right ends of the pump shaft 4. A left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11 and a right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12 are fixedly installed between the left bearing 9 and the right bearing 10 and the pump casing 6, respectively. A first cooling pipeline 13 is fixed between the first liquid outlet at the bottom of the liquid tank 2 and the bottom liquid inlet of the right end face mechanical seal mechanism 8. The first cooling pipeline 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom liquid inlet of the left end face mechanical seal mechanism 7. A second cooling pipe 14 is provided. A first cooling pipe 13 between the first outlet at the bottom of the liquid tank 2 and the second cooling pipe 14 is fixedly connected to a third cooling pipe 15 between the bottom inlet of the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11. A fourth cooling pipe 16 is fixedly connected between the top outlet of the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11 and the top inlet of the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12. A first return pipe 17 is fixedly connected between the top outlet of the left end mechanical seal mechanism 7 and the first inlet at the top of the liquid tank 2. A second return pipe 18 is fixedly connected between the top outlet of the right end mechanical seal mechanism 8 and the first return pipe 17. A third return pipe 19 is fixedly connected between the bottom outlet of the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12, the second return pipe 18, and the first return pipe 17 between the top inlet of the liquid tank 2.
[0026] Example 2: As an optimization of the above examples, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, both the left end mechanical seal mechanism 7 and the right end mechanical seal mechanism 8 are equipped with sealing packing glands 20. The top inlet of the compression chamber 5 is fixedly connected to the collecting and transporting medium inlet pipeline 21, and the bottom outlet of the compression chamber 5 is fixedly connected to the collecting and transporting medium outlet pipeline 22.
[0027] As needed, in addition to the sealing packing gland 20, the mechanical seal mechanism 11 of the left bearing and the mechanical seal mechanism 12 of the right bearing also include other mechanical seal components.
[0028] As needed, gaseous or liquid media enter the compression chamber 5 through the gathering and transportation media inlet pipeline 21. Through the rotation of the blades on the pump shaft 4, the gaseous or liquid media is pressurized and input into the gathering and transportation media outlet pipeline 22. The gaseous or liquid media is then input to each gas or oil system through the gathering and transportation media outlet pipeline 22.
[0029] Example 3: As an optimization of the above examples, as shown in the appendix Figure 1As shown, a remote thermometer 23, a heater 24, and a remote level gauge 25 are fixedly installed on the liquid tank 2. A second liquid inlet 26 is provided on the top of the liquid tank 2, and a liquid filter 27 is provided on the second liquid inlet 26. A drain pipe 28 is fixedly connected to the second liquid outlet at the bottom of the liquid tank 2.
[0030] As needed, heater 24 can heat the cooling medium in liquid tank 2 in a timely manner. On the one hand, this can reduce the precipitation of solid salts in the cooling medium and avoid the risk of blockage of the circulating cooling channel caused by a large amount of solid salts adhering to the pipelines and equipment of the device. On the other hand, it can avoid the risk of freezing blockage of the circulating cooling medium when the device is operating in extremely cold environments.
[0031] As needed, the remote thermometer 23 can monitor the temperature of the medium stored in the liquid tank 2 in real time, and the remote level gauge 25 can monitor the liquid level of the medium stored in the liquid tank 2 in real time. The real-time liquid level value in the liquid tank 2 shall not be lower than 75% of the total liquid level height in the liquid tank 2. When the liquid level and temperature of the medium stored in the liquid tank 2 do not meet the process parameter requirements of the device, it is necessary to fill the tank or cool it down in time.
[0032] As needed, the liquid addition filter 27 is a 150LB model, which can be used not only for liquid addition filtration, but also for filtering outside air impurities after liquid addition is completed, so as to prevent outside air impurities from entering the liquid tank 2.
[0033] Example 4: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, a liquid outlet filter 29, a cooling pump 30, a first remote pressure gauge 31, and a first flow meter 32 are sequentially fixedly installed on the first cooling pipeline 13 between the first liquid outlet at the lower part of the liquid tank 2 and the third cooling pipeline 15 along the medium flow direction.
[0034] As required, the liquid outlet filter 29 is a Y-type filter. The liquid outlet filter 29 can effectively filter out impurities in the circulating cooling medium of the device, reducing the risk of blockage in the pipelines and equipment inlet and outlet of the device.
[0035] The flow rate of cooling pump 30 can reach 5m³ / h as needed. 3 / h, a cable is fixedly connected between the motor 3 and the cooling pump 30, and a frequency converter is fixedly installed on the cable, which makes full use of the output power of the motor 3, improves the energy utilization rate, and also simplifies the layout space of the device.
[0036] Example 5: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, a bypass circulation line 50 is fixedly connected between the liquid outlet at the top of the liquid tank 2 and the first cooling pipeline 13 between the cooling pump 30 and the first remote pressure gauge 31. A pressure control valve 51 is fixedly installed on the bypass circulation line 50.
[0037] As needed, the pressure control valve 51 can indirectly regulate and protect the flow and pressure of the first cooling pipeline 13, reducing the probability of the device malfunctioning and increasing the safety of the circulating cooling process system. When the device is running, the working pressure of the cooling medium in the bypass circulation pipeline 50 is maintained at 1.6MPa by adjusting the pressure control valve 51.
[0038] Example 6: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, the device also includes an energy storage device 33, and an energy storage pipeline 34 is fixedly connected between the bottom outlet of the energy storage device 33 and the first cooling pipeline 13 between the first flow meter 32 and the third cooling pipeline 15.
[0039] Depending on the requirements, the accumulator 33 can be of various structural types, such as diaphragm type, piston type, etc. The accumulator 33 not only eliminates pressure pulsations of the cooling medium in the pipelines and equipment, reducing cooling medium flow noise, but also reduces the erosion damage caused by the circulating cooling medium to vulnerable parts of the pipelines and equipment. Furthermore, in the event of a power outage or motor 3 failure, the accumulator 33 can serve as an emergency energy source to ensure the normal circulation of the cooling medium in the device.
[0040] Example 7: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, a second remote pressure gauge 35, a first regulating valve 36, and a second flow meter 37 are sequentially fixedly installed on the first cooling pipeline 13 between the second cooling pipeline 14 and the bottom liquid inlet of the mechanical seal mechanism 8 on the right end face, along the direction of medium flow. A third remote pressure gauge 38, a second regulating valve 39, and a third flow meter 40 are sequentially fixedly installed on the second cooling pipeline 14 along the direction of medium flow. A fourth remote pressure gauge 41, a third regulating valve 42, and a fourth flow meter 43 are sequentially fixedly installed on the third cooling pipeline 15 along the direction of medium flow.
[0041] As required, since the medium outlet pressure at the bottom right end of the compression chamber 5 is higher than the medium inlet pressure at the top left end, the axial pressure at the right end of the compression chamber 5 is higher than that at the left end. Therefore, the wear and leakage failure rate of the mechanical seal mechanism 8 at the right end is higher than that of the mechanical seal mechanism 7 at the left end. When the device is running, the operating parameters of the second remote pressure gauge 35 and the second flow meter 37 are higher than those of the third remote pressure gauge 38 and the third flow meter 40, ensuring that more cooling medium flow is given to the mechanical seal mechanism 8 at the right end, so as to achieve an effective cooling effect.
[0042] Example 8: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1As shown, a fourth regulating valve 44, a fifth regulating valve 45, and a sixth regulating valve 46 are respectively fixedly installed on the first return pipeline 17, the second return pipeline 18, and the third return pipeline 19 between the top liquid outlet of the mechanical seal mechanism 7 on the left end face and the second return pipeline 18. A fifth remote pressure gauge 52, a fifth flow meter 47, an air cooler 48, and a return filter 49 are fixedly installed sequentially along the medium flow direction on the first return pipeline 17 between the third return pipeline 19 and the first liquid inlet on the top of the liquid tank 2.
[0043] As needed, the air cooler 48 can cool the return medium in the first return pipeline 17 in real time, thereby ensuring that the circulating cooling medium in the device is kept at a low temperature in real time, and improving the cooling effect on the left end mechanical seal mechanism 7, the right end mechanical seal mechanism 8, the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11, and the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12.
[0044] As required, the model of the reflux filter 49 is RMHF-P050-40EP. The reflux filter 49 not only has a filtration function but also a signal acquisition function. When the outlet pressure drop of the reflux filter 49 is too large, it will automatically sound an alarm, at which point the filter element inside the reflux filter 49 needs to be replaced promptly. The accuracy of the reflux filter 49 is higher than that of the outlet filter 29, and the accuracy of the fifth flow meter 47 is higher than that of the first flow meter 32.
[0045] Example 9: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a controller, motor 3, remote thermometer 23, heater 24, remote level gauge 25, cooling pump 30, first remote pressure gauge 31, first flow meter 32, pressure control valve 53, second remote pressure gauge 35, first regulating valve 36, second flow meter 37, third remote pressure gauge 38, second regulating valve 39, third flow meter 40, fourth remote pressure gauge 41, third regulating valve 39, fourth flow meter 43, fourth regulating valve 44, fifth regulating valve 45, sixth regulating valve 46, fifth remote pressure gauge 52, fifth flow meter 47, air cooler 48, and return filter 49, all of which are electrically connected to the controller.
[0046] Example 10: As an optimization of the above embodiments, as shown in the appendix Figure 1As shown, a circulating cooling method for a self-circulating cooling device of a multiphase mixed-transfer pump mechanical seal is carried out according to the following steps: First, clean water or emulsion is added to the liquid tank 2 as the coolant for the device. The coolant in the liquid tank 2 is first filtered through the outlet filter 29, and the filtered coolant then enters the right end face mechanical seal mechanism 8, the left end face mechanical seal mechanism 7, and the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11 through the first cooling pipeline 13, the second cooling pipeline 14, and the third cooling pipeline 15, respectively. The coolant cools the friction surfaces of the mechanical seals in the right end face mechanical seal mechanism 8, the left end face mechanical seal mechanism 7, and the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11. During this process, the accumulator 33 reduces the pressure pulsation and flow noise of the cooling medium in the first cooling pipeline 13, and also provides circulation power to the cooling medium flowing in the first cooling pipeline 13. Second, the coolant in the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11 enters the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11 through the fourth cooling pipeline 16. In the sealing mechanism 12, the coolant cools the friction surface of the mechanical seal in the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12. In the third step, the coolant in the left end mechanical seal mechanism 7 flows back to the liquid tank 2 through the first return line 17, the coolant in the right end mechanical seal mechanism 8 flows back to the liquid tank 2 through the second return line 18 and the first return line 17 in sequence, and the coolant in the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12 flows back to the liquid tank 2 through the third return line 19 and the first return line 17 in sequence. During this process, the air cooler 48 cools the return cooling medium in the first return line 17, and the return filter 49 filters the return cooling medium in the first return line 17 to ensure that the coolant returning to the liquid tank 2 is at a low temperature and free of impurities. In the fourth step, the coolant in the liquid tank 2 then enters the right end mechanical seal mechanism 8, the left end mechanical seal mechanism 7, the left bearing mechanical seal mechanism 11, and the right bearing mechanical seal mechanism 12 for circulation cooling.
[0047] Unless otherwise specified, all equipment and devices used in this invention are existing and commonly known in the art.
[0048] Depending on the needs, the pipelines and equipment of the self-circulating cooling device for the mechanical seal of this multiphase mixed-transfer pump can also be equipped with conventional valves, thermometers, and pressure gauges known in the art, according to production requirements. The controller is a DCS controller, model CMRC-JS-3-220.
[0049] In summary, this invention can effectively cool and reduce the temperature of all mechanical seal mechanisms in a multiphase mixed-transfer pump, ensuring that all mechanical seal mechanisms operate under optimal pressure and flow conditions. It improves cooling and lubrication effects, reduces the risk of stress deformation or damage to the mechanical seal mechanism body due to lack of cooling source, and provides a strong safety guarantee for oil and gas gathering and transportation enterprises.
[0050] The above technical features constitute the embodiments of the present invention, which have strong adaptability and implementation effect. Unnecessary technical features can be added or removed according to actual needs to meet the needs of different situations.
