Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vacuum pumps, in particular to a water ring vacuum pump capable of improving the efficiency of a condensing steam turbine. Background Art

[0002] The steam turbine condenser exhaust system is mainly used to continuously extract the air that leaks into the steam side space of the condenser from the loose parts of the condenser and pipelines, so as to maintain the vacuum of the condenser and good heat transfer, reduce the exhaust pressure, increase the available enthalpy drop, improve the operation safety and efficiency, and thus ensure the economy of the steam turbine. The traditional equipment for condenser vacuum pumping mainly adopts steam jet vacuum pump and water jet vacuum pump, but both of these devices have the disadvantages of low efficiency and high noise, and require continuous consumption of steam or water. As land-based steam turbines develop towards high parameters and large capacity, the economic efficiency of using steam jet vacuum pump or water jet vacuum pump is getting lower and lower. The use of water ring vacuum pump as condenser vacuum pumping equipment can not only improve the vacuuming efficiency, but also reduce energy consumption because the working water of the vacuum pump is used in a closed cycle, making long-term operation more economical. It has been widely used in many power plants.

[0003] When the water ring vacuum pump is extracting gas, since the gas contains dust, the dust is easy to generate dirt inside it, and it needs to be disassembled and cleaned regularly, which is inconvenient to operate.

[0004] The existing Chinese patent with announcement number CN213953903U discloses a water ring vacuum pump, including a pump body, a main impeller is provided inside the pump body, an intake pipe and an exhaust pipe are respectively provided on the top of the pump body, an air filter plate is horizontally inserted inside the intake pipe, an intake acceleration chamber and an exhaust acceleration chamber are respectively provided on the intake pipe and the exhaust pipe, an intake acceleration impeller and an exhaust acceleration impeller are respectively provided inside the intake acceleration chamber and the exhaust acceleration chamber, the wheel shaft of the main impeller passes through the pump body and is provided with a driving wheel, the wheel shafts of the intake acceleration impeller and the exhaust acceleration impeller respectively pass through the side walls of the intake acceleration chamber and the exhaust acceleration chamber and are both provided with driven wheels, and the driving wheel drives the two sets of driven wheels through a synchronous belt; an annular sleeve is provided on the outside of the pump body, a fin group is provided on the inner wall of the annular sleeve, an annular cover is provided on the middle part of the outer periphery of the annular sleeve, and a guide pipe connected to the exhaust pipe is provided on the annular cover.

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned and existing related technologies, the inventors believe that the following defects often exist: when the device cleans the air filter plate, it is necessary to stop the device for operation, which affects the continuous operation of the water ring vacuum pump, and when the shaft of the main impeller passes through the pump body, the shaft of the intake acceleration impeller, and the shaft of the exhaust acceleration impeller respectively pass through the intake acceleration cavity for connection, three penetration points need to be set on the surface of the device, which increases the probability of leakage in subsequent use and requires improvement; therefore, in response to the above problems, a water ring vacuum pump that can improve the efficiency of condensing steam turbines is proposed.
