More specifically, the utility model relates to a tubular water distribution device for improving and optimizing the water layer water distribution process in a thermal storage tank, reducing heat energy losses, and improving the thermal efficiency and performance of the entire system. Background Art
[0002] With the guidance of national policies on energy conservation and carbon reduction, the demand for large-scale heat storage is growing. One of the core equipment of the sensible heat inclined layer heat storage equipment is the water distribution device.
[0003] The traditional water distribution method has a small water distribution capacity and large water distribution resistance, making it difficult to complete large-flow water distribution tasks in a short period of time. This directly restricts the efficiency and response speed of large-scale heat storage in thermal power plants and increases the unit project cost. Utility Model Content
[0004] This patent and utility model provide a tubular water distribution device for an inclined temperature layer sensible heat storage heating system. The main purpose is to improve the performance of the inclined temperature layer heat storage tank in terms of rapid water distribution function and heat storage efficiency, improve water distribution uniformity, reduce disturbance to the inclined temperature layer, and be able to provide a larger water flow rate to meet the requirements of completing water distribution in a shorter time. By optimizing the water outlet structure and flow channel design, the water distribution performance under the demand of large-scale heat storage water distribution is improved, and the weight of the water distribution device is reduced. The device is particularly suitable for the field of large-scale heat storage, and plays a key role in the inter-seasonal heat storage system of thermal power plants.
[0005] During the summer, a large amount of waste heat generated by thermal power plants is stored on a large scale using water as the heat carrier medium and supplied to heat users in winter. In order to meet the demand for rapid water distribution during the heat storage period and reduce the impact of the oblique temperature layer through low-disturbance water distribution, the overall heat storage efficiency is improved.

The ends of the diversion branch pipe on both sides are blocked and sealed. Along the flow direction of water in the diversion branch pipe, a first proximal water distribution port, a second proximal water distribution port, a first distal water distribution port and a second distal water distribution port are respectively provided on both sides of the pipe. The water outlet directions of the first proximal water distribution port, the second proximal water distribution port, the first distal water distribution port and the second distal water distribution port are parallel to the plane of the thermocline layer.

[0012] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and drawings. In the following description, many details are explained to facilitate a comprehensive understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can obviously be implemented in a variety of other ways different from those described here. Those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations and interpretations based on actual application scenarios without violating the essential connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should not be limited by the content of the specific embodiment.
[0013] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this document are consistent with the meanings commonly understood by technicians in the technical field of this application; the terms used in this document are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application; the terms "including" and "having" in the specification, claims and the above-mentioned figure descriptions of this application and any of their modified forms are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.
[0014] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The present embodiment provides a tubular water distribution device for a temperature-slope layer sensible heat storage heating system, which is mainly composed of the following components: a conical cylinder 1, an expansion distributor 2, an expansion distributor conical cylinder 21, a guide pipe 3, a guide branch pipe 4, a first proximal water distribution port 5, a second proximal water distribution port 6, a first distal water distribution port 7, and a second distal water distribution port 8.
[0015] Conical tube 1: As the water inlet, it has a cross-sectional area design from small to large to reduce the water flow velocity during water distribution.
[0016] Expansion distributor 2 and its expansion distributor cone 21: The expansion distributor 2 is a cylinder, and the bottom of the cylinder is provided with an expansion distributor cone 21. The sides of the expansion distributor 2 are respectively provided with connecting holes connected to the guide pipe 3, which are responsible for further diverting and guiding the water flow and reducing the turbulence generated in the water flow.
[0017] There are four guide pipes 3 in total: the end of each guide pipe 3 away from the expansion distributor is connected to the middle of the guide branch pipe 4, each guide pipe 3 is evenly divided into three parts along the water flow direction, and the pipe diameter gradually increases from the side close to the expansion distributor 2 to the side away from the expansion distributor 2. The pipe diameter at the connection between the guide pipe 3 and the guide branch pipe 4 is the same to balance the flow velocity and pressure and ensure the uniformity of the water distribution effect.
[0018] The end of the guide pipe 3 away from the expansion distributor 2 is connected to the guide branch pipe 4. The guide branch pipe 4 adopts a circular cross-section pipe with an arc. The ends of the guide branch pipe 4 on both sides are blocked and sealed. Along the flow direction of water in the guide branch pipe 4, the first proximal water distribution port 5, the second proximal water distribution port 6, the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8 are respectively provided on both sides of the pipe. The water outlet directions of the first proximal water distribution port 5, the second proximal water distribution port 6, the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8 are parallel to the plane of the thermocline layer. Water flows in from one end of the middle part of the guide branch pipe 4, and flows to the first proximal water distribution port 5 and the second proximal water distribution port 6, as well as the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8, respectively, to realize a horizontal jet with large flow and low flow rate, and complete the function of rapid water distribution.
[0019] The device adopts a multi-stage expansion design to minimize the water flow velocity. Through the design of the expansion distributor cone 21, the water flow can be effectively guided during the distribution process, while reducing the generation of turbulence.
[0020] During the heat storage period, hot water (heat carrier medium) flows in from the side of the conical cylinder 1 with a smaller cross-sectional area. As its cross-sectional area gradually expands, the water flow velocity is reduced, and the hot water flows out from the side of the conical cylinder 1 with a larger cross-sectional area and enters the expansion distributor 2. The expansion distributor conical cylinder 21 guides and distributes the water flow to reduce turbulence, and the water flow is evenly distributed to the four guide pipes 3.
[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 It is a three-dimensional blocked view of the tubular water distribution device of the inclined temperature layer sensible heat storage heating system; it shows the connection schematic diagram of the expansion distributor 2, the guide pipe 3 and the guide branch pipe 4, the first proximal water distribution port 5, the second proximal water distribution port 6, the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8, and the position details of the expansion distributor cone 21 are shown through a partial section.
[0022] Each guide pipe 3 is divided into three equal parts. Along the flow direction of water, the diameter of each section gradually expands to ensure that the water flow resistance is minimized and finally becomes the same as the diameter of the guide branch pipe 4. Taking one of the guide pipes 3 as an example, after water enters from the middle guide branch pipe 4, it flows into both sides of the guide branch pipe 4 respectively. On the guide branch pipe 4, the water first flows out from the first proximal water distribution port 5 and the second proximal water distribution port 6, and then continues to flow to and flows out from the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8. The outflow width of the first distal water distribution port 7 and the second distal water distribution port 8 is larger than that of the first proximal water distribution port 5 and the second proximal water distribution port 6 to balance the water flow resistance.
[0023] Through the above-mentioned multi-stage expansion and diversion structure, this embodiment can achieve a large flow, low velocity planar jet, quickly and efficiently distribute water to the heat storage tank, reduce the water distribution thickness of the inclined temperature layer, and improve the heat storage efficiency.
[0024] In another embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, the expansion distributor 2 and the guide pipe 3 of the tubular water distribution device can be adjusted according to the water distribution scale to meet the water distribution needs of heat storage tanks of different scales. For example, the inclination angle of the expansion distributor conical cylinder 21 and the length and diameter of each guide pipe can be adjusted according to actual needs to optimize water flow distribution and water distribution effect.
