Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hydrogen detection and analysis in water, and in particular to a hydrogen detection device in water. Background Art

[0002] The cooling methods of steam turbine generators mainly include water cooling, full hydrogen cooling, water hydrogen cooling and air cooling. Large thermal power generators mostly use the "water-hydrogen-hydrogen" cooling method, that is, the generator stator winding uses water as the cooling medium, and the stator core and rotor winding use hydrogen as the cooling medium. During operation, the hydrogen pressure in the generator chamber is higher than the stator cooling water pressure. The leakage of stator cooling water during the operation of water-hydrogen-hydrogen-cooled steam turbine generators is one of the main causes of stator winding failures, which often leads to the occurrence of generator grounding and phase-to-phase short circuit faults.

[0003] In addition to strengthening the monitoring of cooling water, hydrogen parameters and oil-water detectors when the generator is running, most units are equipped with a hydrogen concentration monitor on the upper part of the cooling water tank based on the characteristic that the hydrogen pressure in the generator chamber is higher than the water pressure, and hydrogen enters the wire rod cooling water through the leakage point and flows back to the cooling water tank. A gas flow meter is installed on the exhaust circuit of the cooling water tank to count the gas flow including hydrogen, or the dissolved hydrogen content in the cooling water is tested by instruments to monitor leakage in the cooling water circuit.

[0004] However, there are shortcomings in actual operation. For example, the method of detecting the dissolved hydrogen content in the cooling water by the detection instrument has the following problems: first, the detection instrument needs to be calibrated before it can be used, but the water used for calibration is relatively pure, which is significantly different from the water quality in the cooling water tank, which often makes the test results higher; second, the cooling water quality of different units is different, and the same detection instrument detects the cooling water of different units, and the test results are sometimes high and sometimes low; third, the cooling water quality of the same unit is also different at different times, which makes it difficult to judge the trend of the dissolved hydrogen content in the water through historical data. Due to the above reasons, the single detection of dissolved hydrogen content in water has obvious deficiencies in guiding actual production work. "Technical Regulations for Hydrogen Leakage Detection of Generator Stator Cooling Water" T / CEC 279-2019 clearly states that when the dissolved hydrogen content at the outlet of the generator stator cooling water pump is greater than 60μg / L, the stator cooling water system is at risk of hydrogen leakage. In summary, how to improve the accuracy and reliability of the detection of dissolved hydrogen content in water is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0035] Furthermore, the electromagnetic switching valve 1 81 and the electromagnetic switching valve 2 82 are connected by a liquid inlet pipe, so that the original two detection branches can be divided into four detection branches, namely, detection branch 3 and detection branch 4. Specifically:

[0036] The detection branch 1 is: flow regulator 4 - quantitative tube 51 - electromagnetic switching valve 81 - detector 91 - liquid collecting tank 7; this branch has a single quantitative tube and a single detector to detect dissolved hydrogen in water, which is suitable for the constant cooling water quality detection of the same unit and the same working condition;

[0037] The second detection branch is: flow regulator 4 - quantitative tube 2 52 - degassing device 6 - electromagnetic switching valve 2 82 - detector 2 92 - liquid collecting tank 7; this branch has a single quantitative tube and a single detector to detect dissolved hydrogen in water, which is suitable for the same unit and the same working condition of the constant cooling water quality detection;

[0040] It should be noted that the inner diameter of the sample injection tube is 3 mm (φ3) and the material is polytetrafluoroethylene. It is used as a connecting pipeline between the constant cooling water tank 1, the flow regulating valve 4, the quantitative tube, the electromagnetic switching valve, the detector, and the liquid collecting tank 7.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 The capacity of quantitative tube 1 51 and quantitative tube 2 52 is 10.0 ml. The two quantitative tubes 5 are quantitative tubes of the same specification and model, and are made of coated stainless steel, which has a passivation effect on water and hydrogen, and has no reaction and adsorption effect.

[0044] Reference Figure 1 The degassing device 6 can remove dissolved hydrogen in water, making the dissolved hydrogen content in water less than 0.1μg / L. It should be noted that there are five types of degassing devices in water: air blast degassing, vacuum degassing, membrane degassing, catalytic degassing and thermal degassing. Because the solubility of hydrogen in water is small, this patent adopts a vacuum degasser to achieve the degassing effect.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 , the liquid collecting tank 7 has a capacity of 2L and can be disassembled to dump the water sample inside.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 The electromagnetic switching valve 1 81 and the electromagnetic switching valve 2 82 can realize the switching of the water sample from the flushing pipeline to the detector pipeline.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 The detection range of detector 1 91 and detector 2 92 is 0 μg / L to 1000 μg / L, and the detection sensitivity is 0.1 μg / L. The two detectors are electrochemical sensors of the same specification and model.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The computer control system 11 can realize precise control of the electromagnetic switching valve 8 and process the detection data of the dual detectors, i.e., the detector 1 91 and the detector 2 92. The computer control system 11 is electrically connected to the data processor 10, the detector 1 91, the detector 2 92, the electromagnetic switching valve 1 81, the electromagnetic switching valve 2 82 and the degassing device 6 respectively. The computer control system 11 is also electrically connected to the touch screen 12. The computer control system 11 can switch the detectors for the background detection of the sampled water and the direct detection of the dissolved hydrogen content in the water, thereby realizing the self-calibration function of the detector, which is conducive to ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the detection results.

[0051] The present application can simultaneously perform background detection on the degassed water sample and directly detect the dissolved hydrogen content in the water, and calculate the dissolved hydrogen content in the water sample according to the difference in the detection results of the dual detectors 9 (i.e., detector one 91 and detector two 92), eliminating the influence of different water quality on the detection results. Make the detection results more accurate and reliable. The measurement range is 0μg / L~1000μg / L, which fully meets the detection requirements of dissolved hydrogen content in the cooling water of the generator of the thermal power plant.

Process 2, a single quantitative tube 5, a dual detector, by switching the detector, two test results of the same water sample are obtained, which can accurately judge the drift of the detector and realize the self-inspection of the detection instrument. Process 3, a dual quantitative tube 5, a dual detector detects the dissolved hydrogen in the water, obtains the water quality background data by degassing, eliminates the influence of water quality, and is suitable for the detection of cooling water quality in different units or different working conditions of the same unit.

[0061] 2. Detection of dissolved hydrogen content in water.
