Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of condensate recovery, and particularly to a condensate heat recovery system. Background Art
[0002] After steam releases its latent heat of vaporization in a steam-using device, it becomes condensate and is discharged through a steam trap. The condensate discharged from different steam-using devices is collected in a water collection tank through a recovery pipeline network and sent to a boiler or other heat-using places by a condensate recovery device. Since the pressure suddenly drops when the condensate enters the condensate collection tank and the water temperature is higher than the boiling point corresponding to this pressure, a large amount of secondary flash steam is generated. In traditional projects, due to flash heat dissipation or sometimes adding cold water to prevent cavitation of the transfer water pump, the recovered water temperature decreases, and at the same time, air enters the condensate recovery pipeline, which is likely to cause pipeline corrosion.
[0003] The secondary flash steam generated during the condensate recovery process poses a risk of pipeline corrosion, reducing the energy utilization efficiency of the entire system, and the recovery utilization rates of condensate and flash steam are very low, resulting in waste of resources.

[0032] The implementation principle of a condensate heat recovery system in an embodiment of this application is as follows: conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the existing condensate and flash steam generation systems, including parameters such as production volume, temperature, and pressure, to determine the potential and feasibility of recovery. Install a steam-water heat exchanger 11 on the top of the condensate collection tank 7, so that the heat energy in the flash steam can be recovered. When the flash steam enters the steam-water heat exchanger 11, it will exchange heat with cold water and transfer its heat energy to the cold water to raise the temperature of the cold water. Install a water-water heat exchanger 19 below the condensate collection tank 7 to further recover the heat energy in the condensate. The cold water preliminarily heated by the steam-water heat exchanger 11 will conduct secondary heat exchange with the condensate to further increase the water temperature. When the water temperature inside the condensate collection tank 7 reaches a certain level, the sliding rod 13 inside the temperature measuring tube 14 moves upward. When the sliding rod 13 moves, it drives the first trapezoidal slider 17 to move upward through the connecting vertical plate 16. When the first trapezoidal slider 17 moves upward, it drives the second trapezoidal slider 18 to move to one side through the inclined plane. The second trapezoidal slider 18 drives the switch plate 8 to slide inside the drain valve box 4. When the drain hole in the middle of the switch plate 8 coincides with the first connecting pipe 3, the hot water inside the condensate collection tank 7 is allowed to flow through the first connecting pipe 3 into the water-water heat exchanger 19. The heated water can be connected to the hot water pipe network system to provide hot water supply for the building, thereby realizing the recycling of energy. When the temperature drops, the sliding rod 13 moves downward and drives the switch plate 8 to reset, closing the bottom of the first connecting pipe 3. By taking the above measures, the secondary flash steam generated during the condensate recovery process can be effectively reduced, the recovered water temperature can be increased, and the risk of pipeline corrosion can be reduced. At the same time, by comprehensively utilizing heat energy, the energy utilization efficiency of the entire system can also be improved.
