Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a molten salt valve, in particular to a self-sealing packing structure of a molten salt valve, belonging to the technical field of valves. Background Art
[0002] Valves are control components in fluid delivery systems, with functions such as shutoff, regulation, flow diversion, backflow prevention, pressure stabilization, flow diversion or overflow pressure relief. Valves used in fluid control systems come in a wide variety of varieties and specifications, from the simplest shutoff valves to the various valves used in extremely complex automatic control systems. Valves can be used to control the flow of various types of fluids, such as air, water, steam, various corrosive media, mud, oil, liquid metals, and radioactive media.
[0003] Molten salt, as a heat transfer and heat storage medium with high heat capacity, has received extensive attention, and its operating temperature can reach 560°C. Molten salt is a high-temperature (greater than 500°C), high heat flux (greater than 105W / m2) and low-pressure (less than 2bar) heat transfer medium with low cost, long life and good heat transfer performance, which makes it have great advantages in industrial applications.
[0004] During the transportation of high-temperature molten salt, the pipeline is basically controlled by a molten salt valve. After a period of use, packing leakage will occur. During operation, the high-temperature molten salt will penetrate into the packing along the valve stem gap. After stopping operation, the molten salt remaining between the valve stem and the packing will form crystals due to the decrease in temperature. When used again, it will cause serious scratches on the valve stem and packing. Over time, the high-temperature molten salt will leak out from the sealing packing gland, affecting the safety and reliability of the entire system. Utility Model Content
