Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of high-position water collection cooling towers, and more specifically relates to a water collection device for preventing floating dripping of a high-position water collection cooling tower. Background Art

[0002] At present, high-level water collection cooling towers are widely used in large-capacity thermal power units. The working principle of high-level water collection cooling towers is: circulating water (hot water) enters the water distribution device through the central shaft and is sprayed through the nozzle. When the spraying water flows through the filler, it exchanges heat with the air and transfers the heat of the circulating water to the atmosphere; the cooling water falling from the bottom of the filler is intercepted, guided, and collected in the central water collection tank above the air inlet by the high-level water collection device, and finally sent to the condenser through the circulating water pump to cool the turbine exhaust.

[0003] The high-level water collection device is mainly composed of a U-shaped water trough, a water collection inclined plate, etc. The cooled circulating water is collected by the water collection inclined plate and enters the U-shaped water trough, and finally flows into the water collection tank.

[0004] However, in the process of water spraying, water droplets hit the water collecting inclined plate, which will produce splashing drops. Some of the drops cannot be collected into the U-shaped water tank, but float to the ground from the gaps between the U-shaped water tanks, which makes this part of the water wasted. And as the temperature and unit load drop, the cooling tower suction force decreases, the air velocity and flow rate decrease, and more drops will be generated. Some drops adhere to the outer wall of the U-shaped water tank and the high-position water collection cooling tower column, and ice will be formed in winter, affecting the safe operation of the high-position water collection cooling tower. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a water collecting device for preventing drifting and dripping of a high-position water collecting cooling tower, so as to fundamentally reduce the splashing generated when circulating water is sprinkled in the high-position water collecting cooling tower, thereby achieving multiple effects such as preventing drifting and dripping, saving water and preventing freezing.

[0011] The two adjacent ends of the water collecting inclined plates of two adjacent water collecting units are arranged to partially overlap in the vertical direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the angle between the water collecting inclined plate and the vertical direction is 35-45°.

[0013] Furthermore, the suspension device includes an inverted T-shaped hanger and a hanger rod connected to each other, the two ends of the inverted T-shaped hanger are connected to the two opposite inner walls of the water collecting trough, and one end of the hanger rod is connected to the structural beam.

[0014] Furthermore, a cross bar is provided on the structural beam, and one end of the suspension rod is hung on the cross bar through a hook.

[0035] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 Now, a water collecting device for preventing dripping of a high-position water collecting cooling tower provided by an embodiment of the utility model is described.

[0036] In one embodiment of the utility model, a high-position water collection device for preventing dripping from a cooling tower according to the utility model embodiment comprises a plurality of water collection units arranged at intervals, such as Figure 1 As shown, preferably, a plurality of water collecting units are arranged at equal intervals, and each water collecting unit includes a water collecting tank 1, a water collecting inclined plate 2, a splash-proof filler 3, and a suspension device 4. One end (lower end) of the water collecting inclined plate 2 is obliquely connected to the inlet of the water collecting tank 1; the splash-proof filler 3 is placed on the water collecting inclined plate 2, and the inclination angle of the splash-proof filler 3 is the same as that of the water collecting inclined plate 2; one end (lower end) of the suspension device 4 is connected to the water collecting tank 1, and the other end (upper end) is connected to the structural beam 8 of the high-position water collecting cooling tower; the two adjacent ends of the water collecting inclined plates 2 of two adjacent water collecting units are arranged to partially overlap in the vertical direction.

[0037] One end (lower end) of the water collecting inclined plate 2 of this embodiment is obliquely connected to the entrance of the water collecting tank 1 to collect the circulating water dripping through the splash-proof filler 3 and collect the circulating water into the water collecting tank 1; the splash-proof filler 3 is placed on the water collecting inclined plate 2 to play the role of collecting water and preventing splashing.

[0049] A water collecting device for preventing dripping in a high-position water collecting cooling tower in the present embodiment reduces splashing and dripping of water droplets without affecting the thermal resistance performance of the cooling tower by means of various methods such as setting a splash-proof plate 7, partially overlapping adjacent water collecting inclined plates 2 in the vertical direction, and controlling the inclination angles of the water collecting inclined plates 2 and the splash-proof filler 3, thereby creating a dry environment at the bottom of the high-position water collecting cooling tower, reducing water resource waste, and alleviating or eliminating the phenomenon of ice hanging on the high-position water collecting cooling tower in winter.

[0050] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
