DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0013] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, an inert gas protection system for a closed circulation system in this embodiment includes a closed circulation system 5, which is provided with an inert gas interface and an exhaust port. The inert gas interface is connected to an inert gas inlet pipe 1, which is provided with an inert gas valve 2 and a gas flowmeter 3. When the inert gas valve 2 is opened, inert gas flows into the closed circulation system, where it mixes with the combustion-supporting materials within the closed circulation system to form a mixed gas. The gas flowmeter 3 is used to monitor the flow rate of inert gas replenishment in real time. The exhaust port is connected to an exhaust pipeline, which is provided with an exhaust valve 7. A flame arrester 8 is provided at the outlet of the exhaust pipeline. When the exhaust valve 7 is opened, the mixed gas is discharged through the exhaust pipeline and the flame arrester 8. An exhaust oxygen content detection unit is also provided. The exhaust oxygen content detection unit is arranged in parallel with the exhaust pipeline and is signal-connected to the inert gas valve 2 and the exhaust valve 7. The exhaust oxygen content detection unit detects the oxygen content in the discharged mixed gas. When the oxygen content in the mixed gas is higher than the set value, it means that the combustion-supporting material in the closed circulation system has not been replaced, and the inert gas valve 2 and the exhaust valve 7 are opened; when the oxygen content in the mixed gas is lower than the set value, it means that the combustion-supporting material in the closed circulation system has been replaced, and the inert gas valve 2 and the exhaust valve 7 are closed.
[0014] The exhaust detection unit comprises a detection pipeline 15 which is arranged in parallel with the exhaust pipeline. The exhaust pipeline is sequentially provided with a fan 14, a filtering device 9 and an oxygen content analyzer 10. The fan 14 sucks a small amount of mixed gas into the detection pipeline 15, and the mixed gas is filtered by the filtering device 9 and then flows to the oxygen content analyzer 10. The oxygen content analyzer 10 detects the oxygen content of the filtered mixed gas, and then determines whether the combustion-supporting material in the closed circulation system is replaced clean.
[0015] Two pressure relief pipelines 11 are further arranged in parallel with the exhaust pipeline. One pressure relief pipeline 11 is provided with a pressure relief valve 12, and the other pressure relief pipeline 11 is provided with a safety valve 13. A pressure detector 6 is arranged at the exhaust port, and is used for detecting the pressure of the mixed gas discharged from the exhaust port. The pressure detector 6 is signal connected with the pressure relief valve 12 and the safety valve 13. When the pressure of the mixed gas at the exhaust port exceeds the limit, the pressure relief valve 12 or the safety valve 13 is opened, so that the pressure in the closed circulation system will not exceed the limit.
[0016] The closed circulation system can be a closed tank, a closed pipeline and a closed equipment and the like.
[0017] The filtering device is a gas washing tank.
[0018] A pressure maintaining pipeline is arranged in parallel with the inert gas inlet pipeline, and the pressure maintaining pipeline is provided with a pressure maintaining valve 4. When the replacement is completed, the inert gas inlet valve is closed, and the pressure maintaining valve is opened. The pressure in the closed circulation system will be lost to some extent. The pressure maintaining valve can introduce a small amount of inert gas, so as to supplement the pressure in the closed circulation system.
[0019] The application is convenient to operate. The inert gas is introduced into the closed circulation system, so that the inert gas replaces the combustion-supporting material in the closed circulation system, and the safety of the system is greatly improved. While the system is protected, the gas flow meter can monitor the inert gas flow in real time.
[0020] In addition to the above-mentioned embodiments, the utility model also includes other implementation manners. Any technical solution formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent replacement shall fall within the protection scope of the utility model claim.
