Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of powder drying equipment, and in particular to a drying kettle. BACKGROUND
[0002] In today's many industrial production fields, especially in the process involving powder material drying treatment, the drying kettle plays a crucial role. With the continuous rise of product quality requirements in various industries and the urgent need to improve production efficiency, the optimization of drying process and equipment becomes a key breakthrough point.
[0003] In the traditional drying kettle, the powder is generally introduced into the kettle by being sucked into the kettle through a vacuum. In the heating link, the disc pipe tightly wrapped outside the kettle is mainly relied on to supply heat by passing high-temperature heat-conducting oil into the disc pipe. At the same time, the paddle assembled in the kettle plays a stirring role, constantly turning the powder upward to make the powder contact the inner wall of the kettle, so that the heat conducted to the kettle by the heat-conducting oil promotes the evaporation of water molecules in the powder, and finally the water vapor is removed by the vacuum system to achieve the purpose of drying.
[0004] However, the structure and operation mode of this traditional drying kettle have exposed many drawbacks in practical application. The most prominent one is the uneven heating problem in the drying process. Since the heat is mainly transferred from the disc pipe outside the kettle, only the part of the powder close to the edge of the kettle can receive sufficient heat in the stirring process, while the powder near the center of the kettle is far away from the heat source and is difficult to ensure that it can continuously and uniformly contact enough heat in the paddle stirring process, resulting in a serious lack of heat for this part of the powder. This uneven heating directly leads to low drying efficiency, not only prolonging the overall drying time and increasing energy consumption, but also affecting the quality stability of the powder due to local over-drying or under-drying, such as causing powder particle agglomeration, inconsistent product moisture content, etc., which is difficult to meet the stringent requirements of modern industrial fine and efficient production.
[0005] In addition, with the increasingly fierce market competition, enterprises are pursuing high-quality products while being increasingly strict in controlling production costs. The low-efficiency operation of the traditional drying kettle makes the energy consumption cost per unit product high, and the rising rate of defective products caused by unstable drying effect further increases the operating burden of enterprises. In the context of gradually improving environmental protection requirements, high-energy consumption and low-efficiency drying methods are also contrary to the concept of sustainable development, and a new drying kettle design scheme that can effectively solve the problem of uneven heating and greatly improve the drying efficiency is urgently needed to promote the stable development of related industries.
