[0002] In order to reduce the loss of working medium, the steam-side drain water of the surface heaters in a thermal power unit is collected and merged into the feed water. Although the thermal economy of the step-by-step gravity drainage method is poor, due to the simple and reliable system, small investment, no additional operating cost, and small maintenance workload, it is widely used in the high-pressure heating of thermal power units.
[0003] In the prior art, the Chinese utility model patent document with the authorization announcement number of CN220524093U discloses a high-pressure heater drain structure for a thermal power generating unit. The normal drain water of the high-pressure heater realizes the water level control of the high-pressure heater through a steam-liquid two-phase automatic drain valve group, and the drain water flows step by step by gravity to the deaerator; however, in some power plants, there is a height difference between the high-pressure heater and the deaerator. The unit needs to operate at a high load above a certain load to overcome the pressure difference between the high-pressure heater and the deaerator, and the high-pressure heater drain water can flow by gravity to the deaerator; however, in the low-load operating state below this load, the high-pressure heater drain water cannot flow by gravity to the deaerator. Currently, it is usually to cut the normal drain water of the high-pressure heater to the emergency drain water into the condenser, and the heat is carried away by the circulating water, resulting in heat loss and increasing the power supply coal consumption during deep peak shaving.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design an energy-saving drainage system for the normal drainage pipeline of a high-pressure heater that can boost the drain water under low-load conditions, enable the drain water to overcome the pressure difference and flow into the deaerator, maintain the heat cycle, and reduce energy consumption to solve the current technical problems.
