Detailed Embodiments

[0034] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] The present invention provides a Figures 1-3 microchannel rapid evaporation and cracking ammonia integrated device as shown, including: an integrated box body 1, on one side of the inner cavity of the integrated box body 1, an evaporation mechanism 2 is installed; a buffer mechanism 3 is installed on the inner side of the integrated box body 1, and a microchannel cracking mechanism 4 is installed on the other side of the inner cavity of the integrated box body 1. The buffer mechanism 3 is arranged between the evaporation mechanism 2 and the microchannel cracking mechanism 4. The inside of the integrated box body 1 is filled with a heat insulation material 5 to facilitate heat insulation treatment and prevent heat dissipation. The integrated device is applicable to the field of energy combustion. By integrally installing the evaporation mechanism 2 and the microchannel cracking mechanism 4 on the inner side of the integrated box body 1, the externally connected hot air is used as a heat source. Through the evaporation of the evaporation mechanism 2 and the cracking of the microchannel cracking mechanism 4, a certain amount of liquid ammonia fuel is rapidly evaporated and cracked into hydrogen and nitrogen, and then supplied to the combustion device after separation or non-separation. Effective combustion control means can ensure high efficiency and stability of combustion without a large amount of evaporation and cracking of ammonia. Moreover, the integrated setting of the evaporation mechanism 2 and the microchannel cracking mechanism 4 inside the integrated box body 1 reduces the use volume and is more convenient to use. Through the settings of the first hot air inlet pipe 25 and the second hot air inlet pipe 426, it is convenient to introduce hot air above 700 °C from the outside as a heat source to supply the evaporation mechanism 2 and the microchannel cracking mechanism 4 respectively; liquid ammonia enters the evaporation mechanism 2 from the liquid ammonia feed pipe 23 at the top and evaporates into gaseous ammonia; ammonia gas enters the buffer tank 31 from the ammonia gas discharge pipe 32 at the top, and after the pressure is stabilized, it is supplied to the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 from the ammonia gas inlet pipe 425 at the top. The cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 thermally cracks ammonia gas into nitrogen and hydrogen, and the cracked gas is sent out from the ammonia gas discharge pipe 423 at the top.

[0036] Among them, the evaporation mechanism 2 includes: a first protective shell 21 fixedly installed inside the integrated box body 1; a stacked rotary finned tube 22 installed inside the first protective shell 21; a liquid ammonia feed pipe 23 fixedly inserted and connected to the top of the first protective shell 21, with one end of the liquid ammonia feed pipe 23 connected and communicating with one end of the stacked rotary finned tube 22. The installation and protection of the stacked rotary finned tube 22 are facilitated through the first protective shell 21. The contact area between liquid ammonia and hot air is increased through the stacked rotary finned tube 22, thereby facilitating the rapid evaporation of liquid ammonia. After the liquid ammonia enters the interior of the stacked rotary finned tube 22 through the liquid ammonia feed pipe 23 and is evaporated at high temperature, it becomes gaseous ammonia and is discharged through the ammonia discharge pipe 32. The evaporation mechanism 2 further includes: a first hot air outlet pipe 24 installed on the top of the first protective shell 21; a first hot air inlet pipe 25 installed on one side of the first protective shell 21, and both the first hot air outlet pipe 24 and the first hot air inlet pipe 25 communicate with the inner cavity of the first protective shell 21. Since hot air flows upward, through the first hot air inlet pipe 25 installed at the bottom and the first hot air outlet pipe 24 installed at the top, it is convenient for hot air to be filled into the interior of the first protective shell 21 from the bottom and flow out from the top, so as to facilitate the flow of hot air.

[0037] Specifically, the buffer mechanism 3 includes: a buffer tank 31 installed inside the integrated box body 1; an ammonia discharge pipe 32 fixedly inserted and installed on the top of the buffer tank 31, with one end of the ammonia discharge pipe 32 connected and communicating with the other end of the stacked rotary finned tube 22, and the other end of the ammonia discharge pipe 32 extending to the bottom of the inner cavity of the buffer tank 31. The gaseous ammonia is conveniently filled into the bottom of the buffer tank 31 through the ammonia discharge pipe 32, and the gaseous ammonia is buffered through the buffer tank 31, so that the gas pressure of the gaseous ammonia entering the ammonia inlet pipe 425 is stable.

[0038] Among them, the microchannel cracking mechanism 4 includes: a second protective shell 41, which is fixedly installed inside the integrated box body 1, and the second protective shell 41 facilitates the protection of the cracking reaction component 42; a cracking reaction component 42, which is installed inside the second protective shell 41, and the cracking reaction component 42 includes: a cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 and a hot air microchannel substrate 422, and a plurality of cracking reaction microchannel substrates 421 and the hot air microchannel substrate 422 are arranged in an alternating parallel laminated combination; an ammonia discharge pipe 423, which is fixedly inserted and connected to the top of the second protective shell 41, and a plurality of first connecting pipes are connected to the bottom of the ammonia discharge pipe 423, and the first connecting pipes are connected to the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421; a second hot air outlet pipe 424, which is fixedly inserted and connected to the top of the second protective shell 41, and a plurality of second connecting pipes are connected to the bottom of the second hot air outlet pipe 424, and the second connecting pipes are connected to the hot air microchannel substrate 422. The cracking reaction component 42 further includes: an ammonia inlet pipe 425, which is fixedly inserted and connected to the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 and the hot air microchannel substrate 422, and a plurality of first connection holes are formed in the ammonia inlet pipe 425, the first connection holes communicate with the inner cavity of the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421, and one end of the ammonia inlet pipe 425 is connected to the buffer tank 31.The cracking reaction assembly 42 further includes: a second hot air inlet pipe 426, which is fixedly inserted and connected to the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 and the hot air microchannel substrate 422. A plurality of second connection holes are provided on the second hot air inlet pipe 426, and the second connection holes communicate with the inner cavity of the hot air microchannel substrate 422. On the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421, the long-acting catalyst combination is arranged on the inner wall of the microchannel by the impregnation method. After the arrangement, nano-level roughening treatment is carried out on the surface of the catalyst to increase the surface area for catalytic cracking reaction, so that ammonia can be quickly thermally cracked into nitrogen and hydrogen. Through the alternating arrangement between the hot air microchannel substrate 422 and the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421, it is convenient to uniformly supply heat to each cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 quickly, which also makes the thermal cracking reaction of the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 faster and more uniform. After the hot air enters from the second hot air inlet pipe 426, it is sent into the interior of the hot air microchannel substrate 422 through the second connection holes, so that the hot air can heat the entire hot air microchannel substrate 422. After the hot air microchannel substrate 422 supplies heat to the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421, it is then discharged simultaneously through the second hot air outlet pipe 424 on the second connection pipe to supply heat to multiple hot air microchannel substrates 422 simultaneously. Ammonia enters through the ammonia inlet pipe 425, is sent into the interior of the cracking reaction microchannel substrate 421 through the first connection holes and thermally cracked into nitrogen and hydrogen, and then is discharged simultaneously through the ammonia discharge pipe 423 on the first connection pipe to ensure the efficient and stable progress of the ammonia cracking reaction.
