Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of thermal pipelines of cigarette production equipment, in particular to a condensed water recovery system for a tobacco drying machine. Background Art

[0002] The silk drying machine is the core section of the production of cigarette factories. It needs to provide steam for the drying machine sheets and hot air blowers. Condensed water will be generated during use. The generated condensed water needs to be continuously discharged through the steam trap to enable the dryer to operate normally. The steam trap pump using traditional pipelines currently has the following problems: 1. The condensed water discharge pipeline of the dryer is not equipped with a relay water collection tank, and is directly connected to the steam trap pump. During the operation of the steam trap pump, the discharge of condensed water generated by the dryer sheets and hot air blowers is hindered. It must enter the pump after the steam trap pump has finished working. Therefore, the steam trap pump needs to be opened and closed intermittently, which has a certain impact on the silk making process. Nowadays, the moisture content of tobacco exported from the silk-making and drying machine is strictly controlled. If the moisture content of tobacco exceeds the standard, it will be judged as unqualified tobacco, causing significant economic losses. At the same time, unstable moisture control of tobacco is the key factor causing yellow spot smoke; 2. When the steam trap pump fails, the condensate cannot be recovered normally. It is necessary to manually judge the fault and directly discharge the condensate to ensure the normal operation of the equipment; 3. Since the condensate temperature generated by the silk-making process equipment is as high as 150℃, and the steam pipeline is drained and recovered to the silk-making condensate main pipe, secondary flash steam will appear in the condensate network, which is actually a two-phase flow. This method will cause steam resistance to increase the back pressure of the process equipment, causing poor drainage of the equipment. Due to the two-phase flow of flash steam and condensate vapor and liquid, water hammer will occur on the pipeline, affecting the service life of the pipeline and valve parts. In order to ensure the stable and efficient operation of the silk-making and drying machine and ensure the smooth discharge of condensate, a condensate recovery system for the drying machine is proposed to avoid the pressure in the condensate pipe and affect the normal and continuous production of the cigarette process, and ensure that the moisture content of the tobacco exported from the drying machine is qualified.
