DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.
[0032] In the present disclosure, the orientation words such as "up, down, left, right" are used for the convenience of description defined according to the drawing direction of the corresponding drawing, and "inner, outer" are defined according to the outline of the corresponding part itself. The terms such as "first, second" used in the present disclosure are used to distinguish one element from another element, and do not have sequentiality and importance. In addition, when the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated.
[0033] The exhaust steam discharged from the steam turbine of the Jianwei power plant enters the condenser through the pipeline, the circulating water pump on the Yangtze River communicates with the condenser through the pipeline, and the circulating water enters from the top and exits from the bottom, which is opposite to the movement direction of the exhaust steam in the condenser, so as to take away the heat of the exhaust steam. In this process, the heat of the exhaust steam will enter the Yangtze River, which will cause the waste of energy and the formation of urban heat island effect.
[0034] Therefore, the present disclosure provides a waste heat recovery device to reduce the waste of heat of the exhaust steam and the formation of urban heat island effect. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The present disclosure provides a waste heat recovery device for recovering heat from steam exhausted from a steam turbine 1. The waste heat recovery device may include a water collecting tank 5, a heat exchange tank 2, a coil 3, and a stirring mechanism. The heat exchange tank 2 may be located on one side of the steam turbine 1. The heat exchange tank 2 may be used to accommodate condensed water and may be provided with an inlet and an outlet. The outlet may be located at the bottom of the heat exchange tank 2 to facilitate the discharge of water from the heat exchange tank 2. The coil 3 may be located within the heat exchange tank 2, with the inlet and outlet of the coil 3 extending out of the heat exchange tank 2. The inlet is connected to the exhaust port of the steam turbine 1. The steam within the coil 3 can exchange heat with the condensed water within the heat exchange tank 2 to form hot water. The inlet of the coil 3 is connected to the exhaust port of the steam turbine 1 via an air duct 4, which is equipped with a check valve. The water collecting tank 5 may be located downstream of the heat exchange tank 2, with the outlet connected to the water collecting tank 5 to collect the hot water within the coil 3. The stirring mechanism can be connected to the heat exchange water tank 2 so as to be used to stir the condensed water.
[0035] It is understood that the inlet of coil 3 is connected to the exhaust port of steam turbine 1, and the exhaust steam discharged by steam turbine 1 can enter coil 3. The exhaust steam can undergo heat exchange with condensed water in heat exchange water tank 2. After heat exchange, the exhaust steam is liquefied into water, which enters water collecting tank 5 through the outlet of coil 3. The condensed water after heat exchange becomes hot water, which is discharged through the outlet of heat exchange water tank 2 for use in urban heating, etc., avoiding heat waste of exhaust steam and the formation of urban heat island effect, and improving energy utilization efficiency. The stirring mechanism is used to stir the condensed water in heat exchange water tank 2, improving the heat exchange efficiency between condensed water and exhaust steam, avoiding uneven water temperature and scale deposition on coil 3, and ensuring the efficiency and stability of waste heat recovery.
[0036] In one embodiment, the heat exchange water tank 2, the coil 3 and the stirring mechanism can be multiple groups to better collect the heat of the waste steam. A thermometer can be installed in the heat exchange water tank 2 to facilitate workers to understand the water temperature, and the water is discharged when the water temperature reaches the required temperature.
[0037] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The stirring mechanism may include a drive motor 12, a shaft 10 and a stirring blade 11. The drive motor 12 may be fixed to the outer wall of the heat exchange water tank 2. The shaft 10 may be located inside the heat exchange water tank 2 and below the coil 3, with one end of the shaft 10 extending out of the outer wall of the heat exchange water tank 2 and connected to the drive motor 12. The stirring blade 11 may be provided on the outer peripheral wall of the shaft 10, and the stirring blades 11 may be arranged in multiple groups spaced apart along the circumferential direction, with the multiple stirring blades 11 of two adjacent groups staggered in the axial direction. The drive motor 12 drives the stirring blade 11 to stir the condensed water to speed up the heat exchange efficiency between the condensed water and the waste steam. The rotating shaft of the drive motor 12 is relatively short, so the stirring blade 11 can only stir the condensed water in a small range. By providing the shaft 10, more stirring blades 11 can be installed in the heat exchange water tank 2, so that the stirring blade 11 can stir the condensed water in a large range, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency between the condensed water and the waste steam.
[0038] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The stirring mechanism may further include a coupling 13, which may be installed between the shaft 10 and the rotating shaft of the drive motor 12. The coupling 13 may effectively reduce shaft deviation, displacement, and angular deviation, reduce vibration, noise, and friction loss of the device, and improve the rotation effect of the drive motor 12 on the shaft 10.
[0039] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The waste heat recovery device can also include multiple trickling filter tubes 6 installed in the water collecting tank 5. The outlet of the coil 3 can be connected to the multiple trickling filter tubes 6 through the connecting pipe 7. Each trickling filter tube 6 is provided with a multi-layer filtering structure to ensure that the water collected in the water collecting tank 5 is relatively clean, providing conditions for subsequent water reuse.
[0040] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 A filter basket 8 can be provided below the multiple trickling filter tubes 6. The sides of the filter basket 8 can be slidably connected to the opposite inner walls of the water collection tank 5. Water can flow through the multiple trickling filter tubes 6 and fall into the filter basket 8. The use of multiple trickling filter tubes 6 ensures that the water flows evenly through the filter material in the filter basket 8, maximizing the use value of the filter material.
[0041] In one embodiment, see Figure 2, the number of filter baskets 8 can be multiple, and can be stacked along the height direction of the water collecting box 5. For example, the number of filter baskets 8 can be three or more than four. Providing multiple filter baskets 8 can increase the water purification effect. A filter plate 9 can be provided under the filter basket 8, and the two sides of the filter plate 9 can be respectively slidably connected to the two opposite inner walls of the water collecting box 5. Providing the filter plate 9 can increase the water purification effect. The water collecting box 5 can be provided with an inspection port, and an openable and closable box door is provided in the inspection port. The box door is provided with a hinge and a handle lock, and the hinge is fixedly connected to the water collecting box 5. The inspection port on one side of the water collecting box 5 and the design of the openable and closable box door facilitate the inspection and replacement of components such as the filter basket 8 and the filter plate 9, thereby improving the maintainability and service life of the device.
[0042] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The coil 3 can be wound in multiple layers along the length of the heat exchange water tank 2. This coiled arrangement increases the contact area between the coil 3 and the condensate and the time the waste steam spends in the condensate, ensuring a cooling effect on the waste steam. The number of coil layers can be selected based on the waste steam cooling requirements and is not specifically limited here.
[0043] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The bottom of the water collecting tank 5 can be constructed in a V-shape. A drain pipe 15 can be installed at the lowest point of the V to ensure that the collected water can be discharged smoothly and prevent water from accumulating in the water collecting tank 5. The drain pipe 15 can be used to connect to the water inlet of the boiler to facilitate the recycling of water resources. A water valve 16 can be installed on the drain pipe 15.
[0044] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The water filling port can be opened at the top of the hot water exchange tank 2, and a cover plate 14 can be installed at the water filling port. The cover plate 14 can be detachably connected to the hot water exchange tank 2, and new condensed water can be poured into the hot water exchange tank 2 by opening the cover plate 14.
[0045] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 An exhaust pipe 17 can be installed on the cover plate 14, and an air valve 18 can be installed on the exhaust pipe 17 to facilitate adjusting the air pressure of the water exchange tank 2 and prevent water from overflowing, avoiding safety hazards caused by excessive pressure or gas accumulation.
