Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of steam temperature regulators, specifically a steam temperature regulator. Background Technology
[0002] Existing steam temperature is mainly regulated through heat energy exchange such as heating and cooling, physical energy conversion such as compression and expansion, and mixing of steam at different temperatures.
[0003] In existing steam generation and usage processes, the temperature and pressure of steam are generally increased by providing heat energy through a heating furnace; or by reducing the temperature and pressure of steam through air cooling or water cooling; or by increasing the temperature and pressure of steam through kinetic energy using a compressor; or by reducing the temperature and pressure of steam by releasing mechanical energy through an expander; or by mixing high-temperature, high-pressure steam with low-temperature, low-pressure steam to obtain steam at the required temperature and pressure.
[0004] The existing heating furnace for heating steam poses operational risks such as fuel gas flash explosion and fuel oil backfire; the compressor is a rotating device, requiring certain equipment wear and depreciation costs and equipment maintenance costs; mixing steam with higher temperature steam to obtain high-temperature steam will inevitably lead to the waste of high-temperature steam.
[0005] In terms of energy utilization, heating furnaces, compressors, and hybrid heating can only obtain an equal amount of steam heat energy by inputting a certain amount of fuel, power, and heat energy based on the principle of energy conservation. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a steam temperature regulator, which effectively solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a steam temperature regulator, comprising a vortex cylinder, wherein a cooling steam outlet is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vortex cylinder, and a steam inlet is fixedly installed on the outer side of the vortex cylinder.
[0008] The steam inlet is used for inputting steam and is connected to the vortex cylinder. The inner wall of the vortex cylinder has a heating steam vortex wall outlet. A cooling steam vortex center pipe is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the vortex cylinder. The cooling steam outlet is connected to the cooling steam vortex center pipe and is used for steam outflow. A heating steam outlet is fixedly installed on the outer side of the heating steam vortex wall outlet and is connected to the vortex cylinder.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0010] In operation, the cooling steam swirl center pipe and cooling steam outlet are set up. During use, the steam is heated and cooled by the swirl cylinder, which replaces the traditional method of heating steam. The equipment has low depreciation costs and no equipment maintenance costs. The heat of the high-temperature steam obtained can be several times that of external input energy or its own pressure energy loss. Attached Figure Description
