[0016] To deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments and the drawings. The embodiments are only used to explain the present invention and do not limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0017] In this embodiment:
[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 - 3, A coupled cryogenic defrosting device, comprising a flame-retardant housing 1, an oil-gas channel 7, a refrigeration channel 6 and a base bracket 2. The base bracket 2 is provided with at least 6 support legs and a plane, and the flame-retardant housing 1 is fixedly arranged on the plane. The flame-retardant housing 1 is of a cuboid structure. Inside the flame-retardant housing 1, there is a cold box 5. Inside the cold box 5, a shell layer channel 8 is fixedly arranged. The oil-gas channel 7 passes through the flame-retardant housing 1 and is connected to the shell layer channel 8 in a through manner. The refrigeration channel 6 passes through the flame-retardant housing 1 and is connected to the shell layer channel 8 in a through manner. Inside the shell layer channel 8, a partition plate 9 is arranged along a first direction, and the first direction is the extending direction of the shell layer channel 8. Below the shell layer channel 8, there is an air outlet pipe 10. The air outlet pipe 10 is cylindrical. Along the circumference of the axis of the air outlet pipe 10, a number of air outlet holes 11 are arranged on the outer side of the air outlet pipe 10. Below the air outlet pipe 10, there is a hot water pipe network 4. The hot water pipe network 4 is fixedly arranged inside the cold box 5. The hot water pipe network 4 is connected with a nitrogen purging pipe and a water inlet pipe. Inside the flame-retardant housing 1, there is a flame retardant 3. Both the oil-gas channel 7 and the refrigeration channel 6 are arranged on the upper side of the flame-retardant housing 1. The oil-gas channel is arranged on the left side of the top plate of the flame-retardant housing 1 and is arranged at least 3 along the axial direction. The refrigeration channel is arranged on the upper side of the top plate of the flame-retardant housing 1 and is arranged at least 5 along the transverse direction. The hot water pipe network 4 is of a mesh structure.
[0019] The diameter of the refrigeration channel 6 is 20 cm, and the material of the refrigeration channel 6 is stainless steel. The diameter of the nitrogen purging pipe is 20 cm, and the material of the nitrogen purging pipe is galvanized steel pipe. The flame retardant 3 is ammonium polyphosphate or polyurethane foam flame retardant 3. The number of air outlet holes 11 on each air outlet pipe 10 is at least 8. The hot water temperature of the hot water pipe network 4 is between 50°C and 80°C, and in this embodiment, it is 60°C.
[0020] The following is the operating principle of this device:
[0021] The oil and gas enters the shell channel 8 through the oil and gas channel 7, and the refrigerant enters the shell channel 8 through the refrigeration channel 6. After the two are mixed, the temperature of the oil and gas will decrease. There are 5 refrigeration channels 6, and the oil and gas channel 7 is arranged on the left side. During operation, the refrigeration channel 6 will be opened as needed to let in the refrigerant. For example, when the cold box 5 needs to achieve precooling at 10°C, primary refrigeration at -10°C, secondary refrigeration at -40°C, tertiary refrigeration at -70°C, and deep refrigeration at -110°C, the refrigeration channels are opened from left to right respectively. The number of opened channels corresponding to the refrigeration levels should be 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively. The partition plate 9 makes the oil and gas move in a U shape in the shell channel 8, and the refrigerant condenses the oil and gas. The refrigerant is R22 or liquid nitrogen. The hot water pipe network 4 is laid on the bottom layer of the cold box 5; the purging nitrogen is connected to the hot water pipe network 4; the cold box 5 equipment can reduce the temperature of the oil and gas to -70°C through multi-stage condensation, and the organic matter in the oil and gas is condensed and collected through the collecting pipe for reuse; frost will form on the inner surface of the cold box 5 during the condensation process of the oil and gas; the hot water pipe network 4 melts the frost in the cold box 5 after passing through 60°C hot water; the purging nitrogen purges the hot water pipe network 4 clean and replaces it for protection for the next working cycle.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims of the present invention.
