Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of horizontal garbage incinerators, and specifically relates to a heat exchange structure of a horizontal garbage incinerator. Background Art
[0002] In the existing horizontal waste incinerator design, horizontally grouped and suspended heat exchange tube panels of similar height are usually used as the main heat exchange elements in the horizontal flue, and ash hoppers and baffles are arranged below to collect and process the ash generated during the incineration process. However, this traditional design has exposed several problems in actual application, mainly reflected in the following aspects: The shape of the flue and the heat exchange tube panel does not match: Due to the lack of precise matching between the cross-sectional shape of the flue and the layout of the heat exchange tube panel, a large gap space exists between the two. This mismatch not only affects the flow path of the flue gas, but also causes part of the flue gas to form vortices or low-speed areas during the flow process, reducing the flue gas flow rate, thereby affecting the heat transfer efficiency of the heat exchange tube panel; The flue gas flow rate is extremely low: Due to the diffusion changes in the flue cross-section and the unreasonable layout of the heat exchange tube panel, the flow rate of the flue gas when passing through the heat exchange tube panel is often extremely low. The low-flow flue gas cannot fully flush the surface of the tube panel, resulting in low heat transfer efficiency. It is necessary to increase the number or area of the heat exchange tube panel to compensate for this defect, thereby increasing the use of metal consumables; low heat transfer capacity and high material cost: Due to the existence of the above problems, the existing horizontal waste incinerator performs poorly in heat exchange efficiency. In order to achieve the expected heat recovery effect, more heat exchange tube panel materials have to be used, which undoubtedly increases the manufacturing cost and operating cost of the equipment.

[0019] Example:
[0020] See attached Figures 1-2. This embodiment provides a heat exchange structure for a horizontal waste incinerator, which includes an inlet flue 1 and an outlet flue 2. A heat exchange device is provided between the inlet flue 1 and the outlet flue 2. The high-temperature flue gas flowing into the inlet flue 1 is cooled by the heat exchange device. At the same time, a large amount of dust and impurities are mixed in the flue gas generated by the waste incinerator. The heat exchange device plays a role in filtering the smoke to a certain extent. Finally, the heat-recovered and filtered flue gas flows through the outlet flue 2 to the next step for subsequent treatment. The arrows in the accompanying drawings are all directions of smoke flow. The heat exchange device of the utility model is a plurality of horizontally suspended heat exchange tube panels 4. A filter is provided on each heat exchange tube panel 4 to filter the smoke, and an ash hopper 3 is provided directly below the heat exchange tube panel 4 to collect the smoke. The intervals between two adjacent heat exchange tube panels 4 are arranged in the same manner, which can ensure that the high-temperature flue gas effectively contacts the middle heat exchange tube panel 4 and increase the contact time, thereby improving the overall heat exchange efficiency.
[0021] The inlet flue 1 is set horizontally to ensure that the high-temperature flue gas flowing in from the inlet flue 1 can vertically contact the heat exchange tube panel 4 at a certain speed and effectively contact each heat exchange tube panel 4. There is a certain difference between the height of the heat exchange tube panel 4 and the height of the inlet flue 1 to ensure that the flue gas can flow smoothly. As a result, the flue gas near the bottom cannot effectively contact the heat exchange tube panel 4 when flowing under the heat exchange tube panel 4, and the ash hopper 3 structure below the heat exchange tube panel 4 will cause the flue gas to form a vortex, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 As shown, the arrows indicate the direction of flue gas flow, thereby slowing down the flue gas and further reducing the heat transfer capacity of the heat exchange tube panel 4. The present invention evenly arranges multiple guide vanes 5 at the opening of the ash hopper 3, directly below the heat exchange tube panel 4. Guide vanes 5 are designed with a large pitch to optimize the flue gas flow field passing through this area, ensuring that its velocity is not significantly reduced and that it effectively contacts the heat exchange tube panel 4 to complete heat transfer.
[0022] The guide vanes 5 are equipped with a rotational adjuster, preferably an automatic adjuster. This is achieved through the coordination of a small motor and bearing structure, along with control by a controller. This utilizes existing technology to precisely control the angle of the guide vanes 5. The optimal angle is adjusted based on factors such as the flue gas flow rate, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange tube panels 4 and preventing heat loss. The adjustable angle of the guide vanes 5 ensures that dust from the heat exchange tube panels 4 falls smoothly into the ash hopper 3. By adjusting the angle of each guide vane 5 to a vertical position, the soot blower is activated to blow dust from the heat exchange tube panels 4, collecting the dust in the ash hopper 3.
[0023] To further extend the service life of the heat exchange tube panel 4, soot blowers are evenly arranged on both sides of the heat exchange tube panel 4 near the inlet flue 1 and the outlet flue 2, and the soot blowers can adjust the soot blowing angle. The soot blower near the lower end can also blow soot on the guide vanes 5.

Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
