Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of deaerators, in particular to a deaerator with a vacuum function. Background Art

[0002] Deaerators are key components of boilers and heating systems. Their primary function is to remove dissolved oxygen and other gases from the feedwater of thermal systems, preventing corrosion of thermal equipment and ensuring the safe operation of power plants and industrial boilers. Deaerators are primarily classified into two categories: rotary film deaerators and vacuum deaerators. Rotary film deaerators include new rotary film deaerators and high-pressure deaerators, while vacuum deaerators are categorized into low-pressure vacuum deaerators and two-stage jet vacuum deaerators. Deaerators are widely used to deoxygenate feedwater for various power station boilers, industrial boilers, and thermal power plant makeup water. Their efficient deoxygenation capacity and stable performance are crucial for ensuring the safe operation of thermal equipment.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN214425971U discloses a rotary film deaerator, comprising a deaerator water tank, the bottom of which is sequentially equipped with a drain outlet, a deaerator water outlet, and an auxiliary heating pipe, an inspection port at one end of the deaerator water tank, a deaerator tower connected to the top of the deaerator water tank, a safety valve at the top of the deaerator tower, a pressure gauge on one side of the deaerator tower, a steam-water separator at the top of the deaerator tower, and a rotary film deaerator located above the interior of the deaerator tower. The deaerator tower of the rotary film deaerator can remove oxygen to ensure water purity, and the auxiliary heating pipe at the bottom can heat the deaerator water tank, which can quickly increase the water temperature and achieve deep deoxygenation. The rotary film deaerator can exchange heat between the water and the heated steam, forming a primary deoxygenation. The liquid-steam network provided by the packing inside the deaerator tower facilitates full contact between the feed water and the secondary steam, heating it to the saturation temperature and achieving deep deoxygenation.

[0004] The above-mentioned existing technical solutions have the following defects: the atomizing water sprayer of the deaerator sprays water into an atomized state through the atomizing nozzle, but after long-term use, when the water encounters high-temperature steam, the atomizing nozzle of the water grate is easily clogged by scale, thereby affecting the atomization effect and further affecting the deoxygenation effect. Therefore, we propose a deaerator with vacuum function to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, an electric telescopic cylinder frame is symmetrically provided at the lower end of the water nozzle cleaning mechanism, one end of the electric telescopic cylinder frame is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the deaerator, an electric telescopic cylinder is installed above the electric telescopic cylinder frame, a fixing plate is installed above the two electric telescopic cylinders, and unblocking needles are equidistantly installed above the fixing plate, the unblocking needles are arranged corresponding to the water nozzles, and a cleaning brush is provided in an outer ring of the unblocking needles.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] 1. During equipment inspection, the utility model can extend the electric telescopic cylinder. When the electric telescopic cylinder pushes the fixed plate to move upward, the dredging needle enters the interior of the water nozzle to dredge the clogged water nozzle. When the dredging needle moves upward again, the cleaning brush on the outside of the dredging needle cleans the inner wall of the nozzle of the water nozzle, thereby cleaning the water nozzle. This solves the problem that the atomizing water sprayer of the deaerator sprays water into an atomized state through the atomizing nozzle, but after long-term use, the atomizing nozzle of the water grate is easily clogged by scale after the water encounters high-temperature steam, thereby affecting the atomization effect and further affecting the deoxygenation effect.

[0015] 2. When the utility model is in use, when the water level is higher than the inner drain pipe, the water sensor will be triggered, which will control the valve of the outer drain pipe to open. At the same time, after the outer drain pipe is filled with liquid and the air is sealed, the liquid inside the bottom of the deaerator body will exert a downward pressure on the lower part due to gravity, and the lower part will produce an upward reaction force on the higher part. When this downward pressure is greater than the upward reaction force, the liquid will begin to flow through the siphon, thereby quickly draining the water level at the bottom of the deaerator body to the bottom of the drain channel, thereby achieving rapid water drainage and preventing the problem of excessive pressure in the deaerator body caused by excessive water level.

[0028] Working principle: When in use, water forms a water film skirt through the rotary film device 13, and exchanges heat with the heated steam to form a primary deoxidation. Subsequently, the feed water is sent to the water nozzle 18 of the exhaust nozzle 14 by the deoxidation feed water pipe 4. The water is atomized and sprayed under the water inlet pressure to contact with the rising secondary heated steam. The mist droplets contact the packing layer 16 to form a water film. The water film is heated to a saturation temperature close to the working pressure of the deaerator. At the same time, the vacuum pump 3 is started and the vacuum pump 3 generates negative pressure. The gas in the deaerator body 1 is extracted through the exhaust pipe 7, maintaining a certain vacuum degree in the deaerator body 1, and extracting the gas dissolved in the water and the uncondensed steam. The deoxidized water is collected in the lower part of the deaerator, and the steam inlet pipe 12 in the deoxidation water tank 1 is again The water is heated to remove the gas in the water again. The water level in the lower part of the deaerator will gradually rise, thereby squeezing the gas, so that the gas is precipitated and deoxygenated again. The water enters the drainage inner pipe 25 through the drainage groove 26. When the water level is higher than the drainage inner pipe 25, the water immersion sensor 28 will be triggered. The water immersion sensor 28 controls the valve of the drainage inner pipe 25 to open. At the same time, after the drainage outer pipe 24 is filled with liquid and the air is sealed, the liquid inside the bottom end of the deaerator body 1 generates a downward pressure on the lower part due to gravity, and the lower part generates an upward reaction force on the higher part. When this downward pressure is greater than the upward reaction force, the liquid will begin to flow through the siphon, thereby quickly draining the water level at the lower end of the deaerator body 1 to below the drainage channel 26, thereby achieving rapid water drainage and preventing the problem of excessive pressure in the deaerator body 1 caused by excessive water level. When the equipment is inspected, the electric telescopic cylinder 20 can be extended. When the electric telescopic cylinder 20 pushes the fixed plate 21 to move upward, the dredging needle 22 enters the interior of the water nozzle 18 to dredge the clogged water nozzle 18. When the dredging needle 22 moves upward again, the cleaning brush 23 on the outside of the dredging needle 22 cleans the inner wall of the nozzle of the water nozzle 18, thereby cleaning the water nozzle 18 and preventing the water nozzle 18 from being blocked and affecting the atomization degree of the deoxygenation spray, thereby affecting the deoxygenation effect.
