Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of boilers, in particular to a detachable low-temperature economizer. Background Art

[0002] An economizer is a device installed at the lower part of the flue at the rear of the boiler to recover the waste heat of the exhaust gas. It heats the boiler feed water into a heating surface of saturated water under drum pressure. Because it absorbs the heat of high-temperature flue gas, it reduces the exhaust temperature of the flue gas, saves energy and improves efficiency, so it is called an economizer.

[0003] Currently, low-temperature economizers for boilers typically consist of an economizer tube panel, an inlet header, and an outlet header. The tube panel utilizes H-shaped finned tubes to increase heat dissipation area and improve thermal efficiency. Low-temperature economizers are typically installed at the tail end of the boiler's flue gas duct, where the flue gas temperature is higher and more heat energy can be utilized.

[0004] The purpose of adding a low-temperature economizer to the tail flue is to reduce the exhaust gas temperature. Due to the high temperature in summer, the use of a low-temperature economizer in summer can achieve the best results; using a low-temperature economizer in winter will cause the exhaust gas temperature to be too low, causing low-temperature corrosion. Therefore, the low-temperature economizer is not started in winter. Since conventional low-temperature economizers are fixed structures and cannot be moved, if they are not started normally in winter, the heat exchange of the tube bundle will be poor. The economizer tube bundle will be subjected to the erosion of high-temperature flue gas in the flue for a long time and cannot be cooled. The tube material will creep, resulting in thinning of the wall thickness and increased stress. The long-term high temperature will change the material properties of the tube, causing the strength and rigidity of the tube to decrease, and eventually lead to tube rupture, shortening its service life. To this end, we propose a detachable low-temperature economizer. Utility Model Content

[0021] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0022] See also Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the utility model, a detachable low-temperature economizer includes a tube panel body 4 located between a smoke inlet manifold 1 and a smoke outlet manifold 2, wherein the smoke inlet of the tube panel body 4 is detachably connected to the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet manifold 1, and the smoke outlet of the tube panel body 4 is detachably connected to the smoke inlet of the smoke outlet manifold 2 via an expansion joint 3, and the tube panel body 4 is composed of a bottom plate 5, a top plate 7 and a plurality of tube panel modules 6, and the plurality of tube panel modules 6 are sequentially arranged between the bottom plate 5 and the top plate 7 from top to bottom.

[0023] By adopting the above-mentioned scheme, the utility model can remove the tube panel main body 4 from between the smoke inlet manifold 1 and the expansion joint 3 when there is no need to use the low-temperature economizer to cool the boiler flue gas in winter. Thereafter, a tube joint with the same diameter as the tube panel main body 4 is installed between the smoke inlet manifold 1 and the expansion joint 3 to keep the smoke inlet manifold 1 and the smoke outlet manifold 2 connected, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the boiler and preventing the tube panel main body 4 of the low-temperature economizer from being damaged due to being eroded by high-temperature flue gas for a long time in a non-working state, and having a good use effect.

[0024] Specific combination Figure 1-3In one embodiment of the present utility model, the tube panel module 6 includes a bracket, a plurality of heat exchange tubes 10 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the bracket, and the outer wall of the heat exchange tube 10 is fixedly connected to a fin 11. Adjacent heat exchange tubes 10 are interconnected through elbows, and several heat exchange tubes 10 are interconnected to form a serpentine pipe. The two ends of the bracket are respectively fixedly connected with a first side plate 8 and a second side plate 9. The second side plate 9 is sealed with a water inlet joint and a water outlet joint, and the water inlet joint and the water outlet joint are connected to the two ends of the corresponding serpentine pipe.

[0025] Furthermore, the first side panel 8 is flange-connected to the adjacent first side panel 8 , the top panel 7 , the bottom panel 5 , the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet header 1 and / or the smoke inlet of the expansion joint 3 .

[0027] By adopting the above-mentioned solution, the utility model can install the tube panel body 4 between the smoke inlet manifold 1 and the expansion joint 3 by sequentially hoisting four tube panel modules 6 on the bottom plate 5 and then installing the top plate 7. Conversely, the tube panel body 4 can be disassembled without any welding work on site. By setting the expansion joint 3, when the tube panel body 4 is disassembled and assembled, the expansion joint 3 can be retracted to one side to leave enough space for hoisting the tube panel modules 6, thereby avoiding collisions between devices.

[0028] In addition, based on the above embodiment, the low-temperature economizer further includes two spare side panels, which are provided with flanges connected to the bottom plate 5, the top plate 7, the smoke outlet of the smoke inlet header 1 and the smoke inlet of the expansion joint 3.
