Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of drainage systems, and particularly relates to a drainage device and a gas boiler system. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, metallurgical and coking enterprises all have self-provided gas boiler systems; among them,

[0003] The gas boiler system takes the induced draft fan as a demarcation point, and the pressure inside the flue between the outlet of the desulfurization and dust removal facility and the suction inlet of the induced draft fan is lower than atmospheric pressure, which is a negative pressure section;

[0004] The pressure inside the flue between the discharge outlet of the induced draft fan and the chimney is higher than atmospheric pressure, which is a positive pressure section. In the running state, when the heat exchange module (such as the economizer and the low-temperature reheater) of the gas boiler system leaks due to failure or wear, the steam and water in the heat exchange module will leak into the negative pressure section and gather at the lowest point of the negative pressure section flue. If the accumulated water cannot be discharged in time, the steam and water mixture will enter the volute of the induced draft fan with the flue gas and adhere to the fan impeller, which will destroy the dynamic balance of the induced draft fan and cause the vibration of the induced draft fan to increase. In addition, it is easy to cause accidents such as bearing damage and motor burning, so it is necessary to install a drainage pipeline and valve group at the low point position of the negative pressure section to facilitate the external discharge of the steam and water.

[0005] However, in the running state of the boiler, the pressure inside the negative pressure section flue is lower than atmospheric pressure. After the drainage valve group is opened, external air will "surge" into the negative pressure section flue in the reverse direction through the drainage valve. The accumulated water in the flue cannot flow out naturally due to the "extrusion" of the incoming air, forming a "waterfall backflow" situation, and thus the drainage function fails to complete the external discharge of the accumulated water. Therefore, it is a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art to invent a device that can realize the normal discharge of the accumulated water in the negative pressure section flue of the gas boiler. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the application provides a drainage device to solve the technical problem that the accumulated water in the negative pressure section flue is difficult to discharge in the prior art.

[0028] In order to make the skilled person in the technical field to which the application belongs more clearly understand the application, the technical scheme of the application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] In the embodiments of the application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the water drainage device comprises a water drainage pipe 1 and a water storage tank 2; wherein,

[0030] The water inlet end of the water drainage pipe 1 is in communication with the water outlet, and the water column pressure value at the height of the water inlet end of the water drainage pipe 1 is greater than the pressure value in the negative pressure section flue 6;

[0031] The water storage tank 2 is arranged below the negative pressure section flue 6, the water outlet end of the water drainage pipe 1 extends into the inside of the water storage tank 2 and is located below the liquid level in the water storage tank 2, as shown in Figure 1 .

[0032] According to the "Bernoulli principle", the water outlet end of the water drainage pipe 1 is located below the liquid level in the water storage tank 2 to form a water seal, and the water column pressure value at the height of the water inlet end of the water drainage pipe 1 is greater than the pressure value in the negative pressure section flue 6, so that the water in the water storage tank 2 will not be sucked into the negative pressure section flue 6, so as to maintain the negative pressure state in the negative pressure section flue 6;

[0033] When the heat exchange tube of the gas boiler system is damaged or worn, and steam and water leakage occurs, water will accumulate in the negative pressure section flue 6, and the water will flow along the inner wall of the negative pressure section flue 6 to the drain pipe 1. At this time, the water column height increases, the water column static pressure balance in the drain pipe 1 is broken, the negative pressure in the negative pressure section flue 6 cannot "suck" the water column in the drain pipe 1, and the water column will sink and part of the water will flow into the water storage tank 2, so that a new water column with static pressure balance is formed in the drain pipe 1, the discharge of the accumulated water is completed, and the water is prevented from entering the induced draft fan 7 and adhering to the fan impeller, so that the dynamic balance of the induced draft fan 7 is destroyed, the vibration is increased, the bearing is damaged, and the motor is burned, and the like.

[0034] Preferably, the volume of the water storage tank 2 is greater than the volume of the drain pipe 1, so that the water in the water storage tank 2 can fill the drain pipe 1 and overflow the drain end of the drain pipe 1 to form a water seal, and the water in the water storage tank 2 is prevented from being sucked into the negative pressure section flue 6, so that the negative pressure state in the negative pressure section flue 6 is maintained, and the good working state of the boiler steam and water system is ensured.

[0035] In some embodiments, the water inlet end of the drain pipe 1 is provided with an on-off valve 3, and the water inlet end of the drain pipe 1 is communicated with the drain port through the on-off valve 3.

[0036] By closing the on-off valve 3, the drain pipe 1 and the negative pressure section flue 6 can be cut off, so that the drain device can be maintained, such as flushing and cleaning.

[0037] In some embodiments, the water inlet end of the on-off valve 3 and the water outlet end of the on-off valve 3 are connected to the negative pressure section flue 6 and the drain pipe 1 through flanges, so that the on-off valve 3 and the drain pipe 1 are more convenient to install and disassemble. Preferably, sealing rings are arranged at the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the negative pressure section flue 6 and the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the drain pipe 1, so as to prevent air from entering the negative pressure section flue 6 through the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the negative pressure section flue 6 and the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the drain pipe 1, and to prevent the water column static pressure balance in the drain pipe 1 from being broken; or, the accumulated water in the negative pressure section flue 6 leaks from the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the negative pressure section flue 6 and the connection between the on-off valve 3 and the drain pipe 1.

[0038] In some embodiments, the water storage tank 2 is a closed box, and a water inlet 21 and an insertion port 22 are arranged at the top of the water storage tank 2 and communicated with the inside of the water storage tank 2.

[0039] The drain end of the drain pipe 1 extends to the inside of the water storage tank 2 through the insertion port 22, and the insertion port 22 and the outer side wall of the drain pipe 1 are connected by welding.

[0040] The water injection port 21 can inject water into the water storage tank 2 and also play a "breathing" role to balance the water level fluctuation caused by the pressure fluctuation in the negative pressure section flue 6.

[0041] In some embodiments, the bottom of the water storage tank 2 is provided with a discharge port 23, and a drain valve 4 is arranged at the discharge port 23; wherein,

[0042] The drain valve 4 is in a normally closed state to avoid the water in the water storage tank 2 being discharged outward to cause the water level in the water storage tank 2 to drop, so that the water level cannot cover the drainage end of the drain pipe 1, and the external air enters the negative pressure section flue 6 from the drainage end of the drain pipe 1;

[0043] When the drain device needs to be maintained, the drain valve 4 can be opened to completely discharge the water in the water storage tank 2, so that the staff can clean and maintain the inside of the water storage tank 2. Preferably, the inner bottom wall of the water storage tank 2 is inclined, as shown in Figure 2 , the discharge port 23 is arranged close to the end of the inner bottom wall of the water storage tank 2 away from the top of the water storage tank 2, so that the water in the water storage tank 2 is more convenient and complete to discharge, thereby further improving the convenience of the drain device during maintenance.

[0044] In some embodiments, the side wall of the water storage tank 2 is provided with an overflow port 24; in the working state, the liquid level in the water storage tank 2 is equal to the height at which the overflow port 24 is located (the position of the lowest point of the overflow port 24), as shown in Figure 1 ;

[0045] If the heat exchange module of the boiler steam-water system leaks, the accumulated water in the negative pressure section flue 6 will flow into the water storage tank 2, so that the liquid level in the water storage tank 2 increases, and the increased water will be discharged outward through the overflow port 24. The staff can determine whether the heat exchange module is damaged by checking whether there is water discharged from the overflow port 24. Preferably, the overflow port 24 is provided with an overflow valve 5, and the overflow valve 5 is in a normally open state to ensure that the water exceeding the height of the overflow port 24 can be normally discharged through the overflow port 24.
