Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric power production, in particular to a unit technology water supply anti-condensation device suitable for a pumped storage power station. Background Art
[0002] According to the characteristics of water supply and water intake of pumped storage power stations, water is generally taken from the tailwater pipe, where the water temperature is relatively low. After being pressurized by the technical water supply pump, it is transported to each user end of the unit. After passing through each user, the water temperature rises, and then passes through Figure 1 The cooling unit shown includes an upper guide bearing cooler, a generator air cooler, a thrust bearing cooler, a water guide bearing cooler, a lower guide bearing cooler, a main shaft seal water supply, a leak-proof ring water supply and a main transformer cooler, and finally the water is discharged to the downstream through a drainage main pipe to form a circulation.
[0003] In autumn, winter and early spring, the air temperature is significantly higher than the water temperature, and condensation will form on the water pipes due to condensation of hot air. This will not only cause humidity in the plant, a large number of water droplets will form on the ground, but will also have an adverse effect on the paint on the outer surface of the pipeline. Therefore, during the operation of the technical water supply system of the pumped storage power station, anti-condensation measures need to be taken for the pipeline.
[0004] After field practice verification, it was found that if the temperature difference between the water temperature and the air temperature is within 8°C, condensation will not occur. The method of covering with insulation layer is widely used in anti-condensation measures for hydraulic pipelines, but the working pressure of the water supply pipelines in hydropower plants is extremely high. Covering with insulation layer will bring great inconvenience to subsequent inspection and maintenance, and may even bring safety hazards. Domestic hydropower construction and management units have explicitly required that the technical water supply pipelines of hydropower stations are prohibited from being covered with insulation layer. In addition, methods such as increasing the number and power of dehumidification equipment and adding dehumidification systems are not only economical, but also have a great impact on the original equipment operating environment and power demand in the plant, so it is difficult to implement.
[0005] In summary, there is currently no device and method for preventing condensation in water supply pipelines that is simple in structure, easy to operate, and applicable to the entire hydropower plant. Utility Model Content
[0006] The utility model aims to provide a unit technology water supply and anti-condensation device which has a simple structure, is easy to implement, is convenient to operate and has strong applicability.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0008] The unit technical water supply anti-condensation device includes a tailwater pipe, a technical water supply water intake main pipe, a cooling unit, and a technical water supply drainage main pipe. The technical water supply water intake main pipe takes water from the tailwater pipe to obtain hot water after passing through the cooling unit user, and then flows into the tailwater pipe through the technical water supply drainage main pipe. It also includes a unit technical water supply anti-condensation system and an in-plant air temperature sensor. The unit technical water supply anti-condensation system takes water from the technical water supply drainage main pipe.
[0009] The unit technical water supply anti-condensation system includes a unit technical water supply anti-condensation pipeline and an electric valve, an electromagnetic flowmeter, a temperature sensor, a flow regulating valve, a signal processing system, and a system temperature sensor on the pipeline. The system temperature sensor is arranged on the technical water supply water intake main pipe. The signal processing system is used to process the temperature difference between the system temperature sensor and the air temperature sensor in the plant. If the temperature difference is greater than 8°C, the electric valve is controlled to open. If the temperature difference is less than 8°C, the electric valve is controlled to close. The electric valve is used to regulate the commissioning of the unit technical water supply anti-condensation system. The electromagnetic flowmeter and the temperature sensor determine the introduced flow and temperature through real-time monitoring. The flow regulating valve is used to adjust the flow of the unit technical water supply anti-condensation system.
[0010] When the electric valve is opened, the flow regulating valve is opened synchronously, and the flow regulating valve is gradually opened until the temperature difference between the plant temperature sensor and the system temperature sensor is less than 8°C, and the flow regulating valve is fixed at a fixed opening.
[0011] Furthermore, a main flow regulating valve is arranged on the technical water supply and drainage main pipe. If the temperature difference between the temperature sensor in the plant and the system temperature sensor is still greater than 8°C when the flow regulating valve is opened to the maximum, the main flow regulating valve on the technical water supply and drainage main pipe is adjusted to reduce the flow of the main pipe, and then increase the flow on the unit technical water supply anti-condensation pipeline to adjust the temperature difference between the two to be less than 8°C.
[0012] Furthermore, the unit technology water supply anti-condensation system also includes a check valve, which is used to prevent water from flowing back from the water intake to the drain pipe.
[0013] Furthermore, the unit technical water supply anti-condensation system also includes a maintenance valve, which is respectively arranged on the water inlet and outlet sides of the pipeline for routine and emergency maintenance.
[0014] Furthermore, a check valve is provided in the water intake section of the technical water supply intake main.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:
[0016] The unit technical water supply anti-condensation device of the utility model has a simple structure and is only composed of newly added pipelines and equipment. It is low-cost, durable, and safe, and is very suitable for the technical water supply system of a pumped-storage power station. The method steps are easy to implement, the equipment and pipelines are connected to the corresponding positions, and the control system is used to feedback and adjust the entire system, which is accurate and reliable.
