Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the refrigeration technology, and specifically relates to a CO 2 cold-carrier refrigeration device that can be placed in a tunnel to shorten the construction period. Background Technique
[0002] At present, the existing ground freezing technologies in the industry are divided into three types: brine freezing, liquid nitrogen freezing, and low-temperature carbon dioxide freezing. Among them, at similar costs, the freezing efficiency of low-temperature carbon dioxide is the highest. In the ground freezing of tunnels, the invention patent with the application number 202210450347.0 discloses "A Carbon Dioxide Cold-Carrier Unit for an Artificial Ground Freezing System". The problems existing in this cold-carrier unit are as follows: First, it is an integral device, and the compressor, water-cooled condenser, and carbon dioxide liquid storage tank are placed side by side in the width direction of the device, so the overall device is too wide. Second, the condensing evaporator and the carbon dioxide liquid storage tank used are two separate devices. Due to the need for gravity liquid drainage, the condensing evaporator must be placed above the carbon dioxide liquid storage tank, so the device will be very high. If the height is reduced, only the height between the CO 2 refrigeration pump and the CO 2 liquid storage tank can be reduced, which will greatly reduce the safe net positive suction head of the pump, and the pump is very likely to generate cavitation phenomenon, posing a great safety hazard to the CO 2 refrigeration pump; the utility model patent with the application number 201821887117.6 discloses "NH 3 / CO 2 Freezing Device". The problems existing in this freezing device are as follows: First, although this device is made in a split form in the length direction, the oil separator, oil cooler, and CO 2 collector are placed side by side in the width direction of the device, so the overall device is too wide. Second, the CO 2 liquefier (i.e., condensing evaporator) and the CO 2 collector (i.e., carbon dioxide liquid storage tank) of these two devices are also placed one above the other, and the height of the device will be very high. The devices in the above two patents will occupy a very wide passage when placed in the tunnel as a whole, which will affect the construction of other processes and cannot be constructed synchronously with other processes. Only after other processes in the tunnel are completed can the ground freezing be carried out finally. Generally, the time for ground freezing is very long, which will cause problems such as the extension of the construction period of the entire project and the increase in construction costs. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to propose a CO 2A secondary refrigerant refrigeration device is provided to solve the problems in the background technology: due to the excessive width and height of the equipment, when placed in a tunnel, it will occupy a very wide passageway, affecting the construction of other processes and making it impossible to synchronize with other processes, resulting in an extended construction period and increased construction costs for the entire project. The technical solution adopted to solve this technical problem is: a CO that can shorten the construction period when placed in a tunnel 2 A secondary refrigerant refrigeration device, in which the refrigeration system is as follows: the refrigerant cycle is: the exhaust port of the compressor is sequentially connected to the oil separator, condenser, ports B and C of the economizer, throttle valve II, ports G and H of the condensation evaporation circulation barrel, and then returns to the suction port of the compressor through the pipeline. Port A in the pipeline is sequentially connected to throttle valve I, ports D and E of the economizer, and then returns to the gas supplement port of the compressor through the pipeline; CO 2 The secondary refrigerant cycle is: port I of the condensation evaporation circulation barrel is sequentially connected to CO 2 the refrigeration pump and the terminal evaporator outside this device, and then returns to port J of the condensation evaporation circulation barrel; the oil cycle is: the oil outlet of the oil separator is connected to the oil cooler through the pipeline and then returns to the oil inlet of the compressor. Its characteristics are: the device is divided into two or more modules, and the modules are connected by several pipelines. The several modules include: the compressor, oil separator, oil cooler, condenser, economizer, and throttle valve I in the compression condensation unit and its auxiliary equipment; the several modules also include: CO 2 the secondary refrigerant auxiliary unit and its auxiliary equipment, including the condensation evaporation circulation barrel, CO 2 the refrigeration pump, and throttle valve II; the condensation evaporator is placed in the 2 low-pressure circulation barrel to form an integrated condensation evaporation circulation barrel. Among them, the width of each module is 1 - 2 meters, and the height is 2 - 3 meters. When the condensation evaporation circulation barrel is a shell-and-tube type condensation evaporation circulation barrel, the equipment is provided with a liquid inlet, left tube sheet, cylinder body, heat exchange tubes, gas inlet, right tube sheet, gas outlet, left liquid cavity, liquid outlet, and right gas cavity; a liquid storage space is provided at the bottom of the cylinder body. When the condensation evaporation circulation barrel is a plate-shell type condensation evaporation circulation barrel, the equipment is provided with a gas outlet, left head, cylinder body, plate core, gas inlet, right head, liquid inlet, and liquid outlet; a liquid storage space is provided at the bottom of the cylinder body. The liquid supply method on the refrigeration side of the condensation evaporation circulation barrel is either direct expansion liquid supply or pump liquid supply. The compressor is either a single-stage compressor or a single-machine two-stage compressor. The number of compressors is single or multiple. The economizer is either dry type, full liquid type, or flash tank type. When the compressor is selected as a single-machine two-stage compressor, the low-pressure stage is either equipped with an economizer or not. Each module in this refrigeration device is either arranged horizontally or vertically in a cross shaft or a vertical shaft. The refrigerant is either Freon or ammonia.
[0004] Port B of the economizer is the liquid inlet pipe orifice, port C of the economizer is the liquid outlet pipe orifice, port D of the economizer is the liquid inlet of the evaporation side, and port E of the economizer is the gas outlet of the evaporation side. Port G of the condensation-evaporation circulation barrel is the refrigerant inlet, port H of the condensation-evaporation circulation barrel is the refrigerant outlet, and port I of the condensation-evaporation circulation barrel is located in the 2 liquid phase region on the secondary refrigerant side, and port J of the condensation-evaporation circulation barrel is located in the 2 gas phase region on the secondary refrigerant side.
[0005] The beneficial effects of the present utility model compared with the prior art are as follows: When the above technical solution is used for in-tunnel formation freezing construction, on the one hand, several modules include: a compressor, an oil separator, an oil cooler, a condenser, an economizer, and a first throttle valve in the compression condensation unit and its auxiliary equipment; it also includes: a 2 condensation-evaporation circulation barrel, a 2 refrigeration pump, and a second throttle valve in the secondary refrigerant auxiliary unit and its auxiliary equipment. The several modules are connected by several pipelines, making the device modular under the premise of complete equipment. The width of each module is not greater than 1.2 meters. Since the tunnel cross-section is circular and there are height restrictions when the equipment is placed on one side, the condensation-evaporator is now placed in the 2 low-pressure circulation barrel to form an integrated condensation-evaporation circulation barrel. Without arranging it in an up-and-down structure, the overall height of the module can be no higher than 2.5 meters. The 2 height between the refrigeration pump and the liquid level is not reduced, ensuring the safe operation of the pump. After the width and height of the equipment are reduced and it is placed on one side of the tunnel, the remaining passage width can reach 3.5 meters, greatly reducing the floor area of the equipment on one side of the tunnel. The formation freezing can be carried out synchronously with other processes in the tunnel without mutual influence, ultimately achieving the purpose of shortening the construction period of the entire project and reducing the construction cost; on the other hand: when the liquid supply method of the condensation-evaporation circulation barrel selects pump liquid supply, the problems of uneven liquid supply and poor heat exchange effect existing in the dry type can be solved; on the other hand: when the compressor selects a single-stage two-stage compressor, it is more energy-saving when the evaporation temperature is below -30°C; on the other hand: when the number of compressors is more than two, when one fails, there is still one that can continue to work, and the on-site freezing equipment does not need to stop, and the formation freezing work can continue; on the other hand, when the economizer selects the flash tank form, the temperature of the refrigerant liquid is lower and the economy of the system is better; on the other hand, this refrigeration device can be applied in different fields. According to the actual application occasion and the on-site installation size, it can be selected to be arranged horizontally or vertically in the cross shaft or vertically in the vertical shaft.
