Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of power station boilers, in particular to a double-stage antifreeze energy-saving air heater system. Background Art
[0002] In the extremely cold regions of northern my country, the operating temperature difference of the heater system is large in winter, resulting in a large thermal expansion between the heat exchange tubes, which is difficult to absorb in the structure and easily causes leakage accidents; at the same time, the water in the heater drain pipe is easy to freeze in low temperature environments, causing the heater tube bundle to freeze and crack, threatening the safe operation of the unit. At present, heaters mostly use auxiliary steam sources or other extraction steam for heating, using high-temperature, high-pressure, high-quality energy to supply low-grade heat, resulting in high-grade energy loss of the unit and problems such as reduced unit efficiency.
[0003] In order to prevent or reduce low-temperature corrosion and ash blockage of the air preheater, it is necessary to install a heater to increase the air temperature at the air preheater inlet. The conventional steam heater is replaced by an air-water heat exchange heater, and circulating water is used as the heat medium to release the heat absorbed on the flue gas side to the primary and secondary cold air, preheating the cold air before entering the air preheater, thereby realizing the recovery of flue gas heat and reducing the auxiliary steam source consumption of conventional steam heaters. However, there are still some problems in the current application of heaters.
[0004] When used in the extremely cold northern regions, the heater tubes are prone to freezing and cracking. There are generally two locations for freezing and cracking: one is the elbow of the heater heat exchange tube, and the other is the bottom rows of heat exchange tubes in the bottom module of the heater. There are two reasons for the freezing and cracking: (1) When the heater header is arranged in a bottom-in-top-out manner, water is easily stored outside the elbow of the lower header. Most heaters use serpentine tubes and the heat exchange tubes are arranged horizontally. When the heater is shut down, the water in the heat exchange tube cannot be effectively drained. When the ambient temperature is low, the heater heat exchange tube freezes and cracks; at the same time, when the ambient temperature is low and the load is low, the flow rate in the heat exchange tube is small, which is also easy to cause the heat exchange tube to freeze and crack. (2) The heater heat exchange tube is generally arranged horizontally, with countercurrent heat exchange. At this time, the cold and hot fluids have the largest average temperature difference and the heat exchange performance is the best. At this time, the temperature of the water is low after the heat is released, and the heater is prone to freezing.
[0005] Using flue gas waste heat to provide heat for the heater can effectively recover waste heat and improve unit efficiency. However, it is easy to have low return water temperature and flue gas condensation. In addition, for the joint design system of low-temperature economizer and heater, when the flue gas recovery heat temperature is high and absorbed by the heater, if it directly enters the low-pressure heating system, it needs to be supplemented with heat again, causing the low-pressure heater to extract more steam for heating, and not utilizing low-grade heat.
[0006] In order to solve the problem of heater antifreeze, Xi'an Thermal Engineering Research Institute Co., Ltd. proposed a two-stage antifreeze heater system. The system's primary air heater and secondary air heater are both set up in two stages, namely conventional heater and antifreeze heater, to achieve step-by-step heating of primary and secondary air. The heat source of the antifreeze heater comes from the condensed water between the No. 4 low-pressure heater and the No. 5 low-pressure heater, and the heat is transferred to the primary and secondary air through the circulating antifreeze liquid. The system adopts a two-stage heat exchange method to reduce the temperature rise of each stage of the heater, reduce the operating temperature difference of the heater, and reduce the thermal expansion amplitude between the rows of heater tubes to avoid leakage accidents. However, an antifreeze heater is set before the conventional heater to heat the primary and secondary air in stages. Both stages of the heater adopt countercurrent heat exchange, which has better heat exchange performance, but the cold air and cold water appear at the same end, and the heater may still freeze under low flow conditions.
[0007] Regarding the energy-saving design of the heater system, Guo Xingjun proposed an antifreeze and energy-saving power station heater system that uses exhaust steam waste heat to provide heat for the heater. This system uses the exhaust heat of the turbine to save high-grade energy of the unit and solve the problem of reduced efficiency of the unit. Chu Xiaoliang and others proposed an efficient and energy-saving antifreeze heater system that uses high-temperature cold water at the outlet of the turbine condenser to heat the cold air at the outlet of the boiler fan. The heat of the high-temperature cooling water is completely waste heat. The use of this part of heat can greatly improve the economy of the entire plant and has a huge energy-saving effect. This scheme takes into account the recovery of the turbine exhaust heat and the high-temperature cold water at the outlet of the condenser, but when this part of the heat cannot meet the temperature increase requirements of the primary and secondary air, more high-quality steam is still required to provide heat.
[0008] Li Nan and others proposed a heater antifreeze technology that changes the heater's co-current or countercurrent heat exchange mode for different low-temperature environments, reducing the risk of heater freezing and cracking through operation control. Although this solution can change the heat exchange mode of the primary air heater and the secondary air heater according to the ambient temperature, the temperature rise of the heater will be large when the single-stage heater is running, which will increase the thermal expansion amplitude between the heater tube rows and cause leakage accidents.
[0009] It can be seen that how to solve the problems of leakage accidents easily caused by large temperature difference in the operation of the heater system, freezing and cracking of the heater tube bundle easily caused by low temperature environment, and energy loss and reduced unit efficiency caused by using high temperature and high pressure high-quality energy to supply low-grade heat, has become a technical problem that technical personnel in this field need to solve urgently.

[0083] For the generator set, exhaust gas loss and exhaust steam loss are important heat losses of the unit, and effective utilization is very important.

[0084] For the flue gas waste heat utilization device 200, the return water temperature is low after the circulating medium 1 releases heat, which is easy to cause flue gas condensation. Therefore, the flue gas waste heat is reasonably released and the flue gas temperature cannot drop too low.

When a system in the flue gas waste heat utilization device 200 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400 fails, it can be effectively isolated without affecting the normal operation of the other system. When the two systems are operated in series, closing the control valves in the flue gas waste heat utilization bypass pipe 121, the system isolation pipe 122 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization bypass pipe 123 can achieve step-by-step heating of the circulating medium 1.
[0085] See also Figure 3 When the unit is operated in summer, the ambient temperature is high and the heat required to heat the air is low. At this time, the flue gas waste heat utilization bypass pipe 121 is closed, the fifth control valve 127 is opened, the fifth control valve 128 is closed, the system isolation pipe 122 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization bypass pipe 123 are opened, that is, only the flue gas waste heat is used to heat the air; please refer to Figure 4 When the unit is operated in winter conditions, the ambient temperature is low and more heat is required to heat the air. At this time, the flue gas waste heat utilization bypass pipeline 121, the system isolation pipeline 122 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization bypass pipeline 123 are closed at the same time, and the fifth control valves 127 and 128 are opened to use the flue gas waste heat and the exhaust steam waste heat to step-heat the circulating medium 1, and then release the heat to the low-temperature air.
[0086] When the ambient temperature is too low (such as in the extremely cold northern regions), and the flue gas waste heat and exhaust steam waste heat cannot meet the air heating requirements, a steam ejector 307 is added to the exhaust steam inlet to introduce an auxiliary steam source to raise the temperature and quality of the exhaust steam, further meeting the requirements of heating the primary air or secondary air. Although some high-quality heat sources are used at this time, most of the heat still comes from waste heat. When the unit is running at low load or shutting down, the auxiliary steam source is introduced through the auxiliary steam source input pipeline 302 to heat the circulating medium 1 in the exhaust steam waste heat heat exchanger 301; the circulating medium 2 exchanges heat with the circulating medium 1 in the intermediate heat exchanger 500 to obtain heat to prevent the circulating medium 1 from freezing in the pipeline when shutting down.
[0087] The primary air heater 101 and the secondary air heater 102 are now mostly partition-type or vacuum tube-type. The circulating medium 1 flows through the heater to release heat to the primary air or secondary air in the air duct, thereby completing the heating function; after releasing the heat, the circulating medium 1 returns to the flue gas waste heat utilization device 200 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400 to form a closed cycle. The flue gas water heat exchanger 201, the exhaust steam waste heat exchanger 301 and the intermediate heat exchanger 500 are mostly partition-type heat exchangers. In the flue gas water heat exchanger 201, the flue gas exchanges heat with the circulating medium 1, the flue gas cools down, and the circulating medium 1 heats up; in the exhaust steam waste heat exchanger 301, the exhaust steam exchanges heat with the circulating medium 1, and the exhaust steam releases heat to become drain and flows into the drain tank 309; in the intermediate heat exchanger 500, the circulating medium 2 exchanges heat with the circulating medium 1 to heat the circulating medium 1.
[0088] Considering the antifreeze requirements of air heaters in extremely cold areas, the antifreeze characteristics of the circulating medium are very important. For temperatures below 0 degrees in northern winter, the circulating medium 1 in the air heater heat exchange device 100 must use antifreeze as the medium. Antifreeze is used as the working medium, and the appropriate operating mode of the air heater is determined to avoid ice formation in the air heater drain pipe and excessive operating temperature difference, and to prevent the heater tube bundle from freezing and cracking. The circulating medium 2 of the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400 can be water, freezing liquid or other media, which can effectively prevent the exhaust steam and other heat sources from freezing after heat release, adjust the outlet temperature after the heat source releases heat, and return to the hot well at a suitable temperature.
[0089] The exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400 sets a heat exchange bypass pipeline 404 for the intermediate heat exchanger 500 and is equipped with a fourth control valve to control the flow of the circulating medium 2 flowing into the intermediate heat exchanger 500; at the same time, when the intermediate heat exchanger 500 fails, the heat exchange bypass pipeline 404 can also be used to take emergency isolation measures.
[0090] The heater heat exchange device 100 is provided with a heater bypass pipe between the inlet and outlet of the circulating medium, and is equipped with a first control valve 119 for adjusting the flow of the circulating medium entering the heater. At the same time, when the primary air heater 101 and the secondary air heater 102 fail or are disabled, opening one or more of the first control valves 103-119 and the fifth control valve 120 can form a loop and cut off the heater.
[0091] With flue gas waste heat and exhaust steam as the main heat source and auxiliary steam source as the auxiliary, the working process of the above two-stage antifreeze heater system is as follows:
[0092] The exhaust steam flows through the exhaust steam heat source 306 input pipeline through the steam ejector 307 and enters the exhaust steam waste heat exchanger 301, releasing the exhaust steam waste heat to the circulating medium 2; when the waste heat is insufficient, the exhaust steam in the exhaust steam heat source 306 and the steam in the auxiliary steam source 306 enter the steam ejector 307 through the exhaust steam input pipeline 303 and the auxiliary steam source input pipeline 302 respectively, generating a mixed steam source with increased temperature and quality, and flows into the exhaust steam waste heat exchanger 301; the exhaust steam after heat release is discharged into the drain device through the drain pipeline 304; for the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400, the circulating medium 2 in the pressure stabilizing tank 401 flows into the inlet of the exhaust steam waste heat exchanger 301 through the variable frequency pump 402, and after absorbing the exhaust steam waste heat, flows into the medium through the circulating medium output pipeline 405 The intermediate heat exchanger 500 releases heat, and the circulating medium 2 after releasing heat absorbs the exhaust steam heat to complete the working medium cycle; for the flue gas waste heat utilization device 200, the flue gas flows into the flue gas water heat exchanger 201, releases heat and then flows out; for the heater heat exchange device 100, the circulating medium 1 first passes through the flue gas water heat exchanger 201 to absorb the flue gas waste heat, then flows through the intermediate heat exchanger 500 to absorb the exhaust steam waste heat, passes through the circulating water pump 126, and then passes through the control valve 120 to be divided into the primary air heater 101 and the secondary air heater 102, releases heat in the heater to heat the air in the air duct, and the circulating medium 1 after releasing heat returns to the flue gas waste heat utilization device 200 and the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device 400 to absorb heat again, completing the cycle of heat absorption and heat release.
[0093] It should be noted that the utility model adopts a heater system that can change the flow direction, in which the primary air heater and the secondary air heater are both set in two stages. When anti-freezing measures are taken, the first-stage heater adopts a co-current heat exchange method, and the inlet air temperature is -25°C for the primary air temperature and -18°C for the secondary air temperature, and the outlet air temperature is 0°C. The second-stage heater adopts a countercurrent heat exchange method, and the inlet air temperature is 0°C and the outlet air temperature is 55°C.
[0094] The utility model relates to the field of power station boilers, and in particular to a two-stage antifreeze and energy-saving air heater system, the system comprising an air heater heat exchange device, a flue gas waste heat utilization device, an exhaust steam waste heat heat exchange device, an exhaust steam waste heat utilization device and an intermediate heat exchanger; wherein the air heater heat exchange device comprises a primary air heater and a secondary air heater, the primary air heater and the secondary air heater are arranged in parallel, and the air heater heat exchange device is used to adjust the primary air heater and the secondary air heater to enter a matching heat exchange mode according to the external temperature, wherein the heat exchange mode includes countercurrent heat exchange and downstream heat exchange; the flue gas waste heat utilization device is connected to the air heater heat exchange device; the exhaust steam waste heat heat exchange device is connected to the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device; the air heater heat exchange device is connected to the exhaust steam waste heat utilization device through the intermediate heat exchanger.
