Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chemical engineering, and more specifically to the technical field of a cold-hot wall transition connection structure for an industrial furnace manifold. Background Art
[0002] At present, with the strong demand for scale and large-scale equipment in the chemical market, as the core equipment of the synthesis gas preparation device, the design of large-scale industrial furnaces faces unprecedented opportunities and challenges. When industrial furnaces are large-scale, technicians have to face difficulties that they have never encountered before. One of the most basic problems is the heat island effect, especially when there are horizontal and vertical reforming gas collection pipes at the bottom of the steam reformer, this contradiction is more prominent.
[0003] The conversion gas enters the conversion tube, reacts under the combined action of the high temperature conducted outside the tube and the catalyst inside the tube, and reaches the bottom of the conversion furnace. At this time, the conversion gas temperature reaches about 1100°C, and the conversion tube must be connected to the manifold and gas pipeline, and sent to the downstream for processing through the gas pipeline. The outlet of the conversion tube is a hot wall tube structure, which needs to transition to the cold wall structure of the manifold. There are many cases of overheating due to improper design here, which brings great hidden dangers to the safe operation of the industrial furnace. Existing patents disclose the following technologies:
[0004] The patent with the publication number CN2810737Y and the patent name "A self-heating-heat exchange type reformer furnace tube" discloses the following content: It belongs to the technical field of heat exchange type reformer furnace tubes, and mainly involves a self-heating-heat exchange type reformer furnace tube. It is mainly composed of a reformer tube, an outer sleeve, an absorption expansion tube and a catalyst. The lower section of the reformer tube is located in the outer sleeve, which is filled with a catalyst. The lower end is connected to an absorption expansion tube, and the outlet end of the absorption expansion tube extends out of the outer sleeve. A raw gas inlet nozzle is provided on the reformer tube, and a second-stage reformed gas outlet nozzle is provided on the outer sleeve. The utility model has a reasonable design. Since there is no corrugated compensator, the expansion difference between the reformer tube and the outer sleeve is absorbed by the internal absorption expansion tube, and the outer sleeve is directly connected to the second-stage reformed gas inlet manifold, so the structure is simpler and the operation is safer, which can meet the requirements of long-term operation of the heat exchange type reformer. This reformer tube can be used in a self-heating-heat-exchange type ammonia reformer using natural gas as raw material, and can also be used in a self-heating-heat-exchange type methanol device and a hydrogen production reformer in other hydrocarbon pressurized steam reforming devices.
[0005] The above patents indicate that there are literature reports on self-heating-heat exchange type reformer furnace tubes in China, which are mainly composed of reformer tubes, outer sleeves, absorption expansion tubes and catalysts. High-temperature second-stage reformed gas enters the annular gap formed between the reformer tube and the outer sleeve from the open end of the outer sleeve through the second-stage reformed gas inlet manifold, flows in the opposite direction to the raw gas, provides heat for the raw gas reforming reaction, and is discharged from the second-stage reformed gas outlet nozzle after heat exchange. The second-stage reformed gas inlet manifold is annular, and the outer sleeve is provided with an open end. However, the hot and cold wall connection structure of the steam reformer furnace bottom manifold may still cause the furnace bottom to overheat. Utility Model Content

[0010] The high-temperature medium of this structure is completely isolated from the external environment.

[0021] Specifically, the large end of the inner cone is connected to the upper guide pipe and the lower guide pipe to guide the conversion gas through the inner cone and the upper guide pipe and the lower guide pipe to the steel shell of the manifold.
