Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooling water systems, in particular to an energy-saving pump device for a cooling water system in a steel rolling mill. [Background Technology]

[0002] Currently, the mill cooling water system in the plate mill workshop of a steel mill primarily provides cooling circulating water for equipment such as conveyor rollers and straighteners. After exchanging heat with the equipment, the water flows through a trench to a vortex well. This cooling water system also provides much of the spray water before the mills. This system, however, suffers from a range of issues, including high pressure fluctuations, severe cavitation, high vibration, and sharp noise.

[0003] The main reason is that the spray water in front of the rolling mill is used frequently and intermittently. When the valve in the spray water pipe in front of the rolling mill is opened, the flow rate increases significantly and the system pressure drops sharply. At this time, the water pump operates seriously out of working condition: the actual NPSH of the pump is too large, cavitation occurs, and the impeller is easily damaged. The water pump operates in the low efficiency range, with an efficiency of only 20%-50%, resulting in high ineffective energy consumption. The operating current increases sharply, exceeding the rated current of the motor, which is prone to motor failure and affecting production safety.

[0004] Therefore, this problem needs to be solved when carrying out energy-saving transformation of the user's rolling mill cooling water system. [Utility Model Content]

[0007] Furthermore, each pump group water outlet main pipe is provided with a branch pressure gauge 3, a full-bore micro-stop return valve 4 and a water outlet valve 5. The input end of the branch pressure gauge 3 is connected to the high-efficiency energy-saving water pump 2, and the output end of the branch pressure gauge 3 is connected to the full-bore micro-stop return valve 4. The output end of the full-bore micro-stop return valve 4 is connected to the input end of the water outlet valve 5. The output end of the water outlet valve 5 is connected to the electric valve 7 through a pipeline. The full-bore micro-stop return valve 4 can achieve full-bore conveying of the medium, and the flow efficiency is higher. At the same time, the branch pressure gauge 3 ensures the stability of pressure and flow.

[0008] Furthermore, the filtering device 8 is composed of a left end flange 8-1, a shell 8-2, a stainless steel filter screen 8-3 and a right end flange 8-4.

The left end of the stainless steel filter screen 8-3 is open and the right end of the stainless steel filter screen 8-3 is closed, so that it only plays the role of blocking large particles. When the pressure tank is filled with water, the large particles are blocked outside the pressure tank to protect the capsule from being damaged by the large particles. When the pressure tank is discharged from water, the large particles are carried away with the outlet water flow.

[0009] Furthermore, the left end flange 8-1 of the filter device 8 faces the electric valve 7, and the right end flange 8-4 of the filter device 8 faces the capsule air pressure tank 9, so that the filtering effect is better and it is more convenient and quick to connect with the electric valve 7 and the capsule air pressure tank 9.

[0019] As attached Figure 2As shown, the filter device 8 consists of a left end flange 8-1, a shell 8-2, a stainless steel filter screen 8-3 and a right end flange 8-4.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0021] This energy-saving pump assembly primarily consists of an inlet valve 1, a high-efficiency, energy-saving water pump 2, a branch pressure gauge 3, a full-bore micro-stop valve 4, an outlet valve 5, a main pressure sensor 6, a motorized valve 7, a filter 8, a capsule air pressure tank 9, and a control cabinet 10. The high-efficiency, energy-saving water pump 2 is custom-made based on measured data to match the system's normal operating conditions. The capsule air pressure tank 9 is connected to the pump assembly main pipe via the motorized valve 7 and filter 8. The filter 8 consists of a left-end flange 8-1, a housing 8-2, a stainless steel filter screen 8-3, and a right-end flange 8-4. The stainless steel filter screen is welded to the inner wall of the housing, with the left side open and the right side sealed. The installation direction of the filter device 8 is that the left end flange 8-1 faces the water outlet pipe of the pump group, and the right end flange 8- faces the capsule pressure tank 9. It only serves to block large particles. When the pressure tank is filled with water, the large particles are blocked outside the pressure tank to protect the capsule from being damaged by large particles.

[0022] The high-efficiency, energy-saving water pump 2, main line pressure sensor 6, and electric valve 7 are all connected to a control cabinet 10, which supplies power and control to the system. The electric valve 7 is linked to the high-efficiency, energy-saving water pump 2. When any water pump starts, the electric valve 7 slowly opens, allowing water to flow into the pressure tank. This prevents damage to the capsule caused by a sudden pressure surge when the tank is empty (in certain special circumstances). When all water pumps are shut down, the electric valve 7 slowly closes. The main line pressure sensor 6 monitors the main line pressure in real time and transmits this data to the control cabinet 10. If the main line pressure falls below the set value while at least one pump is running, an alarm is triggered and a backup pump is automatically activated to maintain the main line pressure.

[0023] The present invention is described below by means of specific embodiments:

[0024] The roller cooling water system of a medium plate mill has two pumps, one for use and one for backup. When the spray water in front of the mill is not turned on, the actual operating flow is 160m 3 / h, main pipe pressure 0.7MPa, operating current 120A, operating power 70.5KW, system efficiency about 40.6%; when the spray water in front of the rolling mill is turned on, the actual operating flow is 450m 3 / h, main pipe pressure 0.3MPa, operating current 150A, operating power 88.1KW, system efficiency about 24.5%. Spray water lasts about 8 seconds, with an average interval of 2 minutes. This system has the problem of low system efficiency and high energy consumption, and has great potential for energy-saving transformation. However, it also has its own characteristics, see the attached for details. Figure 3 and attached Figure 5 The pressure-time curve and current-time curve of the equipment before improvement show that when the spray water is used, the pressure drops sharply and the current rises sharply, and the vibration and noise of the water pump increase significantly, affecting production safety. Analysis of the operating data shows that the increase in flow rate during the spray water opening period is approximately (450-160)×8 / 3600≈0.645m 3 .

[0025] According to the parameters of normal operation point, design and select high-efficiency energy-saving pump. Normal operation point flow rate 160m 3 / h, main pipe pressure 0.7MPa. The actual operating current of the high-efficiency energy-saving pump is 80A, the operating power is 46.8KW, the hourly power saving is 23.7KW, and the power saving rate is 33.6%. During the use of spray water, if the high-efficiency energy-saving pump does not cause cavitation vibration, check the performance curve of the high-efficiency energy-saving pump and ensure that the main pipe pressure is not less than 0.55MPa. At this time, the corresponding flow rate of the pump is 190m 3 / h. Additional flow rate required: 0.645-(190-160)×8 / 3600≈0.578m 3 The inflation pressure of the capsule air pressure tank is 0.4MPa, and the total volume V of the capsule air pressure tank is calculated according to the following formula:

[0026] V(1-(0.4+0.1) / (0.7+0.1))-V(1-(0.4+0.1) / (0.55+0.1))>0.578m 3 ;

[0027] V>4m 3 ;

[0028] Taking the coefficient of 1.1, V≥4.4m 3 , select a total volume greater than 4.4m 3 The capsule air pressure tank can ensure that the main pipe pressure is not less than 0.55MPa during the use of spray water.

[0029] The improved energy-saving pump device is shown in the attached Figure 4 and attached Figure 6 The pressure-time and current-time curves for the energy-saving pump device in the figure show gentle changes in pressure and current at the moment of water spraying, ensuring stable pump operation, saving energy while ensuring production safety. (The above parameters and calculations are based on existing technology in the field and are only used for comparison to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present invention.)
