Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of energy utilization and ventilation, and in particular to a winter ventilation system for underground coal transportation corridors which utilizes waste heat of heating return water. Background Art

[0002] The coal transportation system refers to the coal transportation equipment and its control equipment from the coal unloading point to the coal yard and from the coal yard to the boiler coal bunker. Many power plants use coal unloading ditches to unload coal and underground corridors to load coal. In the underground coal transportation corridors in the north in winter, due to the low ambient temperature, heating usually uses hot water with higher temperature to heat the coal transportation corridors. The heating return water temperature is generally high. It is understood that some power plants use steam heating to heat the coal transportation corridors, and a large amount of heat is not fully utilized. In addition, due to the closed environment and poor ventilation, the underground coal transportation corridors are humid, which is prone to equipment corrosion. At the same time, due to the long-term closed environment and low oxygen content, there is a personal risk for operation and maintenance personnel. In summer, the corridor can be ventilated through ventilation holes, but in winter, if the air is exhausted outward, a large amount of heat will be brought into the corridor; if the air is ventilated inward, cold air will enter the coal transportation corridor with a higher temperature, which will lower the temperature in the corridor and easily condense into water on the equipment, causing corrosion and damage to the equipment. Therefore, the cold air inhaled by the ventilation needs to be heated. The traditional heating and ventilation method not only consumes a lot of energy, but also has low efficiency and cannot effectively utilize the waste heat resources of the heating system.

By recovering the waste heat from the heating return water and preheating the air used for ventilation, the utility model can provide good ventilation effect for the closed environment of the underground coal transportation corridor in winter.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above-mentioned problems is: a winter ventilation system for an underground coal transportation gallery using waste heat from heating return water, characterized in that it comprises a ventilation duct, a gallery ventilation air inlet is provided at the top of the ventilation duct, air inlet louvers are installed around the gallery ventilation air inlet, an air inlet grate is installed on the bottom surface of the gallery ventilation air inlet, an air supply fan is arranged in the ventilation duct, the air supply fan is located below the air inlet grate, a heat exchanger is arranged below the air supply fan, a temperature sensor is arranged below the heat exchanger, a duct air supply port is provided at the bottom end of the ventilation duct, an air outlet electric air valve is installed at the duct air supply port, and the duct air supply port is communicated with the underground coal transportation gallery.

[0005] Furthermore, the primary side water inlet of the heat exchanger is connected to the heating return water pipe input port through the water inlet pipe, and an electric gate valve, an electric regulating valve, a flow meter and a pressure gauge are installed in sequence on the water inlet pipe; the primary side water outlet of the heat exchanger is connected to the heating return water pipe output port through the return water pipe, and a check valve is installed on the return water pipe; an electric gate valve is installed between the heating return water pipe input port and the heating return water pipe output port.

[0006] Furthermore, the primary side pipe and the secondary side pipe of the heat exchanger are connected to the heating return water pipe, and the heating return water pipe is connected to the return water side of the heating system for extracting heat from the heating return water to heat the cold air in the ventilation duct.

[0007] Furthermore, the heat exchanger is a plate heat exchanger.

[0008] Furthermore, the air supply fan is used to drive air flow and adjust ventilation air volume.

[0009] Furthermore, the air outlet electric air valve can be closed when ventilation is not required to prevent coal powder from diffusing and depositing in the ventilation duct.

[0010] Furthermore, the air inlet louvers can prevent debris in the air from entering the ventilation duct, and the air inlet louvers can be closed.

[0011] Furthermore, the air inlet grate can filter dust with smaller particle sizes in the air, and can be replaced with a fully enclosed grate when the system is not in operation to prevent debris from entering.

[0012] Furthermore, the temperature sensor can monitor the ventilation temperature and dynamically adjust the working state of the ventilation system according to the ventilation temperature entering the underground coal transportation gallery to maintain the ventilation temperature in the underground coal transportation gallery.

[0013] Furthermore, by effectively utilizing the waste heat of heating return water, the internal environment of the underground coal transportation corridor is regulated, the energy utilization efficiency is improved, the operating cost is reduced, and the safety inside the underground coal transportation corridor and the comfort of the working environment are ensured.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages and effects: the return water for heating in the underground coal transportation gallery is introduced into the heat exchanger for heat exchange, and the remaining heat is absorbed by the heat exchanger and transferred to the air in the ventilation duct. After the fan is started, the air is driven to flow in the ventilation duct, and the air heated by the heat exchanger is sent into the underground coal transportation gallery, which can be ventilated for the underground coal transportation gallery during the cold winter period. According to the temperature in the ventilation duct, the operating state of the fan and the opening of the electric regulating valve on the primary side water supply pipeline of the heat exchanger are adjusted to ensure the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger in the ventilation duct and the ventilation effect of the underground coal transportation gallery.
