Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coal-fired power generation technology, and in particular to a coal-fired boiler system. Background Technology

[0002] Related technologies indicate that my country's energy structure is dominated by coal, and coal-fired power generation, as a crucial component of the power industry, directly impacts national energy security and economic development in terms of stability and efficiency. During the operation of a coal-fired power unit, the pulverizing system is a key component. This system grinds coal into pulverized coal using a pulverizer and mixes it with primary air to form a gas-solid two-phase air-coal mixture. The temperature of this air-coal mixture is a critical factor affecting the combustion stability, ignition rate, and combustion efficiency of the pulverized coal, and has a vital impact on the boiler efficiency and combustion stability of the coal-fired power unit.

[0003] However, in actual operation of coal-fired power units, the pulverizing system presents serious safety hazards, such as pulverized coal deflagration. Therefore, to ensure safe operation, the upper limit of the temperature of the pulverized coal mixture at the mill outlet is strictly limited. This significantly restricts pulverized coal ignition, making it difficult to achieve ideal combustion efficiency. Furthermore, during the transport of the pulverized coal mixture from the mill outlet to the burner inlet, the temperature decreases to some extent due to heat dissipation through the pulverized coal pipes, further affecting pulverized coal ignition, reducing ignition stability, and delaying ignition time. This may lead to incomplete combustion of pulverized coal in the furnace, increasing heat loss from incomplete chemical and mechanical combustion, and negatively impacting the boiler's combustion and thermal efficiency.

[0004] To address these issues, several solutions have been proposed. One approach involves introducing hot flue gas or steam extracted from the turbine to preheat the pulverized coal mixture. However, this system is complex, has poor heat exchange efficiency, and the heating rate and effect are difficult to control. Another method involves pressurizing the primary air with a booster fan before directing it into the furnace to enhance pulverized coal preheating, effectively reducing the difficulty of pulverized coal ignition and promoting stable combustion of the boiler under low load conditions. However, this method is complex, has a large impact area, and the booster fan alters the flow field in the upstream and downstream pipes of the pulverizing system, making precise and rapid temperature control difficult.

This facilitates the adjustment of the heating power of the microwave heating device 2 and the heating power of the electromagnetic heating device 3.

[0035] In some embodiments of this utility model, the coal-fired boiler system 100 further includes: a power supply, wherein there are multiple power supplies, and all multiple power supplies are electrically connected to the microwave heating device 2 and the electromagnetic heating device 3. That is to say, the power supply can be an external power supply 7 or a plant power supply 8, both of which can supply power to the coal-fired boiler system 100 of this utility model embodiment to ensure that the coal-fired boiler system 100 can work continuously.
