Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This solution belongs to the technical field of boiler energy conservation, and specifically relates to a boiler circulating water system. Background Art
[0002] In the boiler water circulation system, natural and forced circulation are key to ensuring safe and stable operation of the boiler and the Jinhua furnace water-wall drum. To this end, the system design incorporates a boiler water circulation pump and incorporates a low-flow boiler water shut-down interlock and a low-flow standby pump auto-start interlock to enhance production stability and safety.
[0003] Referring to the document with the existing publication (announcement) number CN111981455A, a forced recirculation water tube steam boiler system and its operation method are disclosed, including a float water extractor arranged in a water tank, the float water extractor is connected to the condenser through a boiler feed water pipe, a boiler feed water pump is connected in series to the boiler feed water pipe, the condenser is connected to a buffer level control tank through a water supply pipe, the buffer level control tank is connected to the water inlet of the boiler body through a high-temperature water supply pipe, a high-temperature circulation pump is connected in series to the high-temperature water supply pipe, the water inlet of the boiler body is connected to the burner disk and the furnace square coil, the furnace square coil is connected to the tail collecting box, the tail collecting box is connected to the fin-type downcomer economizer, the fin-type downcomer economizer is connected to the bottom collecting box, the bottom collecting box is connected to the furnace boiling riser, the furnace boiling riser is connected to the top collecting box, the steam-water mixed outlet of the top collecting box is connected to the steam-water separator through the steam-water mixing pipe, and the liquid outlet of the steam-water separator is connected to the buffer level control tank through a reflux pipe.
[0004] However, in the prior art, boiler water circulation pumps generally use self-sealing or high-pressure sealing water sealing to cool and lubricate the mechanical seals in the pump. However, when the circulating pump is in hot standby mode, the sealing water cannot flow, causing the water pressure in the circulating pump to reach about 7.5 MPa and the temperature to reach about 286°C. Such extreme conditions will cause the rubber O-ring of the mechanical seal to deform, and at the same time, scale will easily form on the mechanical seal. In severe cases, it may even cause the pump to be unable to start, resulting in seal failure and medium leakage, posing a risk of scalding. In addition, frequent leakage of mechanical seals requires constant switching and maintenance, which increases the workload of operators and maintenance personnel in high-temperature environments. In the maintenance state, if the boiler water circulation pump does not have a spare pump, once the operating pump fails, the gasifier will stop, thereby reducing the operational stability and safety of the entire system. These problems highlight the shortcomings of the existing technology in ensuring the long-term stable operation of the boiler water circulation pump. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this solution is to provide a boiler circulating water system to solve the problem of non-flow of sealing water in the boiler circulating pump in the prior art.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a boiler circulating water system, including a boiler water pump and a circulating water system, and also includes a sealing water system, wherein the sealing water system includes:
[0007] A sealed water tank, wherein the sealed water tank is connected to a first sealed water pipeline;
[0008] A sealing water cooler, the sealing water cooler being in communication with the sealing water tank via a first sealing water pipeline, the sealing water cooler being in communication with the mechanical sealing structure of the boiler water pump via the first sealing water pipeline;
[0009] A flow regulating assembly, the flow regulating assembly being provided on the first sealing water pipeline and being used for regulating the flow of sealing water in the first sealing water pipeline;
[0010] A second sealing water pipeline is used to transmit boiler water, and the second sealing water pipeline is connected to the sealing water cooler.
[0011] The principle of this solution is to add a first sealing water pipeline and use the high-pressure boiler water transmitted by the second sealing water pipeline as the mechanical seal sealing water. Due to its high pressure, it can effectively maintain the pressure and temperature difference inside and outside the mechanical seal stable. And the flow rate of the sealing water is controlled by the flow regulating component, so that the sealing water flow rate is 0.3~0.5m 3 / h within the stable range.
[0012] The effects of this solution are: (1) By adding a first sealing water pipeline and using the high-pressure boiler water transmitted by the second sealing water pipeline as the mechanical seal sealing water, it is ensured that the sealing water can maintain flow even when the pump is not running, thereby effectively avoiding the deformation of the mechanical seal rubber O-ring and scale scaling caused by stagnation of sealing water. (2) Through the flow regulating component, the sealing water flow can be accurately controlled at 0.3~0.5m 3 / h, further ensuring the cooling of the mechanical seal, improving the utilization efficiency of the standby pump, and reducing the risk of gasifier shutdown due to pump failure, thereby ensuring the long-term stable operation of the entire boiler circulating water system.
[0013] Furthermore, the flow regulating assembly includes a first stop valve, a rotor flowmeter, a second stop valve, a first one-way valve, an exhaust valve, a third stop valve and a pressure gauge which are sequentially arranged on the first sealing water pipeline.

The first and second stop valves allow the operator to cut off or restore the sealing water flow, and the rotor flowmeter reads the flow to ensure that the flow is maintained at 0.3-0.5m 3 / h setting range. The first one-way valve prevents reverse flow. Ultimately, the sealing water flow entering the mechanical seal is stabilized and enters the mechanical seal jacket symmetrically for seal cooling.
[0015] Furthermore, the flow regulating assembly also includes a flow limiting orifice plate provided on the first sealing water pipeline.

The fourth and fifth stop valves can control or cut off the water flow, and the filter can intercept impurities and particles in the water to avoid clogging of sensitive components such as the boiler water pump and the sealing water cooler. (2) The four branches connected to the circulating water supply pipeline allow the support, pump cover and bearing box of the boiler water pump to be cooled, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the pump. One of the branches is directly connected to the sealing water cooler, which helps to maintain the flow of sealing water and avoid mechanical seal failure caused by stagnation of sealing water in the hot standby state.
[0023] Furthermore, each of the three branch pipes is provided with a seventh stop valve.

Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the scope of protection of the present invention:

The flow regulating assembly 33 includes a first stop valve 331, a rotor flow meter 332, a second stop valve 333, a first one-way valve 334, an exhaust valve 335, a third stop valve 336, a pressure gauge 337 and a flow limiting orifice 338, which are sequentially arranged on the first sealing water pipeline.

The first and second stop valves allow the operator to cut off or restore the sealing water flow, and the rotor flow meter 332 reads the flow to ensure that the flow is maintained at 0.3 to 0.5 m 3 The first one-way valve 331 prevents the sealing water from flowing in the opposite direction. This ultimately stabilizes the flow of sealing water entering the mechanical seal and allows the sealing water to enter the mechanical seal jacket symmetrically for cooling.
