Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heat exchanger construction in sulfuric acid plants, and in particular to a device for replacing a heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] Heat exchangers are a common equipment in sulfuric acid plant production. They are usually used for cooling heat exchange and heat energy recovery to ensure the safe operation of equipment and reaction materials, and help improve production efficiency and reduce energy consumption.

[0003] As the production time of the heat exchanger increases during use, the shell side of the heat exchanger becomes clogged with dirt. Due to the narrow maintenance channel inside the heat exchanger and the small spacing between the tubes, the heat exchanger cannot be cleaned thoroughly and can only be cleaned locally. However, the effect of local cleaning is not good, showing problems such as increased system resistance (the shell side resistance of the heat exchanger increases from 1.8kPa in the initial state of the new equipment to 4.5kPa) and decreased heat exchange efficiency (the tube side temperature of the heat exchanger increases from the initial 180℃ to 220℃), which has a certain impact on the overall thermal balance and total conversion rate of the conversion system, affecting production efficiency.

[0004] In order to ensure the stable operation of the sulfuric acid plant, the entire heat exchanger needs to be replaced. The conventional way to replace the heat exchanger is to use a crane. However, due to the large size of the heat exchanger and the small environment around the heat exchanger, the replacement process becomes difficult, which will lead to inconvenience in operation or inability to complete the replacement. In addition, there are greater safety risks when using a large crane for replacement in a small environment, and the replacement project will be more complicated and time-consuming. At the same time, the replacement of the entire heat exchanger requires a long production stoppage time, which will lead to a long production interruption and cause production losses.

[0026] The device for replacing the heat exchanger also includes: an anti-displacement angle iron for fixing the round tube.

[0027] The technical solution provided by this application may have the following beneficial effects:

[0028] In this application, the first replacement platform and the second replacement platform are installed in advance next to the equipment base platform, which occupy a smaller area. When the site is limited and there is no space for a large crane, the large equipment can be replaced by a lifting-free and translational method. The installation process is convenient and efficient, and can ensure production operation efficiency and safety.

[0050] See also Figure 1-5 , a device for replacing a heat exchanger, arranged to be installed beside an equipment base platform 1 of an old heat exchanger 10, for replacing a new heat exchanger 11, comprising:

[0051] A first replacement platform 2, a second replacement platform 3, a first hoist 4, a second hoist 5, a lifting eye 7, a traction eye 8 and a round pipe 9;

[0052] The first replacement platform 2 and the second replacement platform 3 are arranged and installed on the side of the equipment base platform 1;

[0053] By installing the first replacement platform 2 and the second replacement platform 3 next to the equipment base platform 1 in advance, the area occupied is smaller, and when the site is limited and there is no space for a large crane, the large equipment can be replaced by a lifting-free translation method, and the installation process is convenient and efficient, which can ensure the efficiency and safety of production operations.

[0054] The first replacement platform 2 and the second replacement platform 3 are fitted with the equipment base platform 1 and the heights between the platforms are the same, so as to ensure the stability of the old heat exchanger 10 and the new heat exchanger 11 during the movement, thereby effectively completing the replacement work.

[0055] The first replacement platform 2 and the second replacement platform 3 both include: a top plate 301, a middle steel frame 302 and a bottom plate 303. A plate strip 304 is laid between the middle steel frame 302 and the bottom plate 303 to ensure the overall flatness of the steel frame.

The bottom plate 303 can increase the stress-bearing area of ​​the bottom concrete, the top plate 301 can ensure the smooth and stable movement of the round tube 9, and the steel frame 302 in the middle can withstand a large load and pressure support. At the same time, by laying the plate belt 304, the overall flatness of the frame can be further improved, ensuring the smooth and stable movement of the round tube 9.

After the anti-displacement angle iron is fixed, the round tube 9 can be fixed in position to ensure the stable installation of the new heat exchanger 11. Specifically, the bottom plate of the new heat exchanger 11 is first fixed on the array round tube 9, and then the internal components of the new heat exchanger 11 are installed.

[0061] Eight lifting lugs 7 are installed on the shells of the old heat exchanger 10 and the new heat exchanger 11;

By pulling the traction lug 8 on the old heat exchanger 10, the old heat exchanger 10 can be moved on the round tubes 9.

[0067] Specifically, the first hoist 4 is installed in front of the first replacement platform 2 , and the second hoist 5 is installed in the rear of the second replacement platform 3 .

[0068] A first fixed anchor 401 is installed in front of the first winch 4, one end of the first winch 4 is fixed to the traction lug 8 of the new heat exchanger 11, and the other end of the first winch 4 is fixed to the first fixed anchor 401; a second fixed anchor 501 is installed in front of the second winch 5, one end of the second winch 5 is fixed to the traction lug 8 of the old heat exchanger 10, and the other end of the second winch 5 is fixed to the second fixed anchor 501.

[0069] By fixing one end of the second winch 5 on the traction ear 8 of the old heat exchanger 10, the second winch 5 can be driven to pull the traction ear 8 of the old heat exchanger 10 to realize the movement of the old heat exchanger 10 on the round tube 9, and the moving direction of the old heat exchanger 10 is the traction direction of the second winch 5. At the same time, during the movement of the old heat exchanger 10, the round tube 9 is continuously placed on the second replacement platform 3 to ensure the continuous movement of the old heat exchanger 10, so that the old heat exchanger 10 can be transferred to the second replacement platform 3, and the transfer process of the old heat exchanger 10 is completed.

[0070] After the transfer process of the old heat exchanger 10 is completed, the first winch 4 is driven to pull the traction ear 8 of the new heat exchanger 11 to realize the movement of the new heat exchanger 11 on the round tube 9, and the moving direction of the new heat exchanger 11 is the traction direction of the first winch 4. At the same time, during the movement of the new heat exchanger 11, the round tube 9 is continuously placed on the first replacement platform 2 to ensure the continuous movement of the new heat exchanger 11, so that the new heat exchanger 11 can be transferred to the original old heat exchanger position of the equipment base platform 1, and the transfer process of the new heat exchanger 11 is completed.

[0071] The embodiments of the present application include the following beneficial effects:

[0072] In the present application, the first replacement platform 2 and the second replacement platform 3 are installed in advance next to the equipment base platform 1, which occupy a small area.
