Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metallurgical technology, and more specifically, to a melt pipeline. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial applications, especially in metal smelting processes, controlling the flow and cut-off of high-temperature melts (such as liquid metal or slag fluid) in pipelines is a common problem in the transportation of high-temperature melts.

[0003] Currently, in order to keep the high-temperature liquid metal or molten slag fluid in the pipeline in a flowing state and avoid pipeline blockage, the common method is to heat the pipeline wall with a conventional resistance heating element, and use the pipeline wall to transfer heat to the fluid in the pipeline, so as to raise the temperature of the fluid in the pipe and thus keep it flowing. The way to control the flow state of the molten fluid in the pipeline is to install valves on the pipeline to meet the requirements of the high-temperature liquid metal or molten slag fluid transportation project.

[0004] In the above-mentioned flow control scheme for hot melt in the pipeline, when the resistance heating element directly heats the melt pipeline, the heat loss on the outside of the resistance heating element is large. Moreover, the flow and cut-off state of the high-temperature melt in the pipeline are controlled by the resistance heating element and valves, which requires high heat resistance of the materials of the resistance heating element and valves. Therefore, the scheme of controlling the fluid by resistance heating and valve opening and closing is usually difficult to implement economically due to problems such as materials, structure and condensation.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this utility model, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art.
