Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of paper processing, in particular to an efficient micro-grooved steel plate dryer cylinder. Background Technique
[0002] The cast iron dryer cylinder used for paper processing is a key component for paper drying - a type I pressure vessel. The number of cast iron dryer cylinders accounts for about 2 / 3 of the total number of pressure vessels in the paper industry. In terms of manufacturing quality, it is required that there should be no penetrating and excessive sand holes. In order to increase the smoothness of the paper surface, it is required to polish the outer surface of the dryer cylinder and turn the inner surface to make the entire wall of the dryer cylinder keep the same thickness, so as to ensure the safety, balance and uniform heat transfer of the dryer cylinder. The function of the dryer cylinder is to dry the moisture in the paper sheet and finish the paper surface.
[0003] In most paper processing processes in the market, the preheating cylinder body generally uses steam heating. Steam enters from one end of the preheating dryer cylinder and exits from the other end. Although this technical solution is simple and feasible, there is a problem that a relatively thick condensate liquid film is likely to be generated on the inner wall of the preheating dryer cylinder during the heat exchange process between the inner wall and the steam. The generation of the condensate liquid film will not only affect the heat exchange between the preheating dryer cylinder and the steam, but also the large accumulation of condensate water on the inner wall of the preheating dryer cylinder will cause an increase in the power consumption of the preheating dryer cylinder. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] The first object of the utility model is to provide an efficient micro-grooved steel plate dryer cylinder. Through the grooves, the thickness of the liquid film becomes uneven and the gravity is also inconsistent. The liquid film at the grooves is thick and heavy and falls off under the action of gravity, forming dropwise condensation when the dryer cylinder rotates, thereby improving the heat transfer effect. The second object is to use a steel plate with a high thermal conductivity to replace the cast iron material with a low thermal conductivity, thereby improving the heat transfer effect to solve the problems put forward in the above background technique.
[0005] The utility model provides an efficient micro-grooved steel plate dryer cylinder, which includes a dryer cylinder body. The left end of the dryer cylinder body is fixedly connected with a left end cover by bolts, and the right end of the dryer cylinder body is fixedly connected with a right end cover by bolts. The middle part of the outer surface of the right end cover is fixedly connected with a main shaft for installing a transmission bearing. The inner wall of the dryer cylinder body is provided with a spiral micro-groove structure;
[0006] The middle part of the outer surface of the left end cover is fixedly connected with a steam inlet shaft pipe, and a rotary steam inlet head is installed on the steam inlet shaft pipe.
[0007] The rotary steam inlet head is provided with a steam inlet pipe and a drain pipe. The steam inlet pipe is used for steam to enter and heat the dryer cylinder, and the drain pipe is used for discharging the steam condensate after heat exchange.
[0008] Preferably, the dryer cylinder body is made of steel plate material.
[0009] Preferably, the steam inlet shaft tube communicates with the inside of the dryer cylinder body.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. The thickness of the liquid film becomes uneven through the grooves, and the gravity is also inconsistent. The liquid film at the grooves is thick and heavy, and falls off under the action of gravity, forming dropwise condensation when the dryer cylinder rotates, thereby improving the heat transfer effect.
[0012] 2. Due to the existence of the grooves, the heat transfer area of the inner surface is increased, thereby improving the heat transfer capacity.
[0013] 3. Since the steel plate dryer cylinder uses a denser material, the distance between microscopic materials is closer, the voids in the space are reduced, the heat transfer resistance is reduced, and the heat transfer efficiency is improved. The density of the traditional cast iron dryer cylinder is 7.3 g / cmm3, and the thermal conductivity is 45 w / (mk); the density of the steel plate dryer cylinder is above 7.8 g / cmm3, and the thermal conductivity is above 48.5 w / (mk).
[0014] 4. The strength of the steel plate dryer cylinder is better than that of cast iron. Therefore, under the same pressure grade, the wall thickness decreases, the heat transfer distance is short, and it is more rapid. Moreover, because the weight is 20% lighter, the transmission power consumption is saved by 10%. Description of the Drawings

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution:
[0026] An efficient micro-grooved steel plate dryer cylinder, including a dryer cylinder body 1, a left end cover 2 is bolted and fixed to the left end of the dryer cylinder body 1, and a right end cover 3 is bolted and fixed to the right end of the dryer cylinder body 1. A main shaft 6 for installing a transmission bearing is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the right end cover 3, and a spiral-structured micro-groove 10 is provided on the inner wall of the dryer cylinder body 1;
[0027] A steam inlet shaft pipe 4 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the left end cover 2, and a rotary steam inlet head 5 is installed on the steam inlet shaft pipe 4.
[0028] The rotary steam inlet head 5 is provided with a steam inlet pipe and a drain pipe. The steam inlet pipe is used for steam to enter the heating dryer cylinder, and the drain pipe is used for discharging the steam condensate after heat exchange. The dryer cylinder body 1 is made of steel plate material, and the steam inlet shaft pipe 4 is communicated with the inside of the dryer cylinder body 1.
[0029] Working principle: Steam enters the inside of the dryer cylinder body 1 through the steam inlet pipe of the rotary steam inlet head 5 on the steam inlet shaft pipe 4 and conducts heat with the micro-grooved cylinder body of the dryer cylinder. The heated dryer cylinder body 1 then dries the paper passing through the surface of the dryer cylinder body 1. The micro-grooves 10 make the thickness of the liquid film uneven and the gravity inconsistent. The liquid film at the grooves is thick and heavy and falls off under the action of gravity, forming dropwise condensation when the dryer cylinder rotates, thereby improving the heat transfer effect. Using a steel plate with a high thermal conductivity instead of a cast iron material with a low thermal conductivity further improves the heat transfer effect. Condensate is generated during the heat exchange process between the steam and the dryer cylinder body 1, and the condensate is discharged through the drain pipe on the rotary steam inlet head 5.
