Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of steam condensate recovery of industrial devices, and in particular relates to a condensate conveying system. Background Art
[0002] Condensate is the product of steam heating. Industrial steam has different pressure levels, such as 0.4MPa steam, 0.8MPa steam, 1.6MPa steam, etc. Heating mainly uses their latent heat. The condensate produced by heating is separated into steam and liquid through the steam trap. Condensate needs to be recycled and reused. Steam of different pressure levels produces condensate at different pressure levels. For example, 0.4MPa steam will produce 0.4MPa condensate, and 0.8MPa steam will produce 0.8MPa condensate. Therefore, different recovery mains are needed to recover condensate of different pressure levels. At present, condensate recovery equipment all utilizes small sets of proprietary equipment. There are small sets of equipment that use electric centrifugal pumps to transport condensate, and there are small sets of equipment that use steam as the power source. Their advantages are high integration, but the process is more complicated and relatively expensive. When condensate is collected, flash steam needs to be released, which generates noise. In addition, condensate of different pressure levels requires small sets of proprietary equipment of different levels and cannot be recovered uniformly using one set of equipment.
[0003] Publication No. CN102221196B, "Fully-enclosed condensate automatic recovery pump and method", uses steam as a power source to recover the steam released by the flash evaporation of condensate, but lacks pressure regulation for the condensate booster, and does not perform separate operations for collecting and pressing out. It cannot continuously recover condensate of various pressure levels, but only intermittently recovers condensate of a single pressure level, and is manually operated, making it difficult to replace small sets of equipment.

The water collecting tank 1 and the water delivery tank 2 are both vertical tanks, and the volume of the water collecting tank 1 should be greater than that of the water delivery tank 2 to ensure sufficient liquid level difference.
[0017] In the embodiment, the water delivery tank 2 uses power steam as an external power source, does not have an external pump, and simultaneously recovers condensate of multiple different pressure levels without releasing flash steam of condensate to the outside, so no noise is generated. The control process is fully automatically controlled by a PLC controller, and the specific operation steps of the control process are as follows:
[0018] 1) Condensation, the vertical water collection tank 1 is used to collect condensate of different pressure levels in multiple channels. The external steam condensate is sent to the middle of the water collection tank 1 according to different pressure levels. The upper part of the water collection tank 1 is provided with a circulating water cooling coil 9. After the condensate enters the water collection tank 1, flash steam will be generated. The circulating cooling water of the circulating cooling water coil condenses the flash steam. The lower part of the water collection tank 1 is used to collect and store condensate. The internal pressure of the water collection tank 1 is controlled by the pressure regulating valve 3 and the pressure recording and control instrument PRC-01. The pressure is slightly lower than the condensate pressure of the lowest pressure level collected in multiple channels to ensure that condensate of various pressure levels can enter smoothly.
[0019] 2) External discharge: When the condensate in the water collecting tank 1 is full, the liquid level rises, and the liquid level recording instrument LR-01 displays the liquid level value in real time. The static pressure generated by the height difference of the liquid level of the condensate is sent to the water delivery tank 2 through the connecting pipe 10. When the liquid level of the water delivery tank 2 reaches the upper limit H, the solenoid valve 4 is opened, and the condensate in the water delivery tank 2 is pushed out from the lower part under the pressure of the power steam;
[0020] 3) Balance the pressure. When the liquid level of the water transfer tank 2 reaches the lower limit of the liquid level and the liquid level displayed by the liquid level recording and control instrument LRC-02 reaches the lower limit of the liquid level L, close the solenoid valve 14, stop introducing the motive steam, open the solenoid valve 25 on the balance pipe 11 connecting the upper part of the water transfer tank 2 and the upper part of the water collecting tank 1, and the motive steam inside the water transfer tank 2 slowly enters the upper part of the water collecting tank 1 under the action of the throttling orifice plate 7, condenses through the circulating cooling water on the upper part of the water collecting tank 1, and falls to the bottom of the water collecting tank until the water collecting tank 1 and the water transfer tank 2 reach pressure balance, and return to step 2) for continuous circulation.
