DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in the following with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0028] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms “mounting”, “connection”, “connecting” should be understood in a broad sense, for example, can be fixed connection, can be detachable connection, or integrally connected; can be mechanical connection, or electrical connection or can communicate with each other; can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through intermediate medium, can be the communication between two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0029] In the present application, unless specifically and expressly defined otherwise, a first feature "on" or "under" a second feature can include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them. Moreover, the first feature "on", "above" and "over" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or only indicates that the first feature is higher in horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature "under", "below" and "underneath" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or only indicates that the first feature is lower in horizontal height than the second feature.

[0030] The submerged combustion vaporizer (SCV) combustor and the LNG heat exchanger system are core equipment in the submerged combustion vaporizer, and require high heat exchange efficiency, strong running stability, good coupling effect between the two subsystems, reduced exhaust gas heat loss, and ultimately lower pollutant emissions and higher energy efficiency indicators.

[0031] The current heat exchanger system is usually designed as follows: the cofferdam surrounds the heat exchange coil, and is integrally installed in the water bath pool. The cofferdam upper edge is higher than the water bath pool liquid level height, and the uppermost row of pipes of the heat exchange coil is also higher than the water bath height. The bottom flue gas distribution pipe header is located on one side outside the cofferdam, and a plurality of branch pipes are connected and arranged below the heat exchange coil, and exhaust holes are uniformly arranged. The cofferdam converges the flue gas in the heat exchange coil area, and the liquid level in the cofferdam rises to the cofferdam upper edge to produce overflow, realizing water circulation inside and outside the cofferdam. The flue gas distribution pipe bubbles the high-temperature flue gas generated by the front-end combustion upward from the bottom of the water bath pool cofferdam, while the low-temperature LNG enters the heat exchange coil. The flue gas is directly heated by bubbling to release heat to the medium water in the water bath pool, and the medium water in the water bath pool heats the LNG through the heat exchange coil, finally realizing the endothermic heating process of the LNG.

[0032] The current flue gas distribution pipe and heat exchanger layout structure has the following problems: the header of the flue gas distribution pipe is isolated in the water bath pool outside the cofferdam, which can cause the outer wall of the header to exchange heat with the water outside the cofferdam due to high temperature. This part of heat cannot quickly enter the inside of the cofferdam, causing the water temperature to be relatively high, and the exhaust gas temperature to be relatively high, resulting in the high-temperature heat of the outer wall of the header of the flue gas distribution pipe being unable to be efficiently utilized, reducing the energy utilization rate. Moreover, the internal volume of the cofferdam is relatively small, and the liquid phase in the two-phase flow generated inside the cofferdam during bubbling is relatively small, thereby resulting in a low heat exchange coefficient, high exhaust gas heat loss, and poor thermal inertia.

[0033] Referring to Figure 1 The present application provides a submerged combustion vaporizer. The submerged combustion vaporizer comprises a heat exchange coil 1, a flue gas distribution pipe 2, and a cofferdam frame 3.

The side plates 32 are arranged on both sides of the support 31 in the first direction X and on both sides of the support 31 in the second direction Y. Specifically, the side plates 32 are arranged around the heat exchange tube bundle 105. Among them, the side plates 32 can effectively limit the activity range of the water bath bubbling from the smoke exhaust hole 204 into the cofferdam frame 3, and try to exchange heat between the flue gas waste heat and the heat exchange tube bundle 105.

That is, the inlet header 102 and the outlet header 104 are located on the sealed side of the flue gas main pipe 202.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2The gas inlet of the first side connecting branch pipe group 151 is communicated with one end of the inlet header pipe 102 in the second direction Y, and the gas inlet of the second side connecting branch pipe group 152 is communicated with the other end of the inlet header pipe 102 in the second direction Y. The gas outlet of the first side connecting branch pipe group 151 is communicated with one end of the outlet header pipe 104 in the second direction Y, and the gas outlet of the second side connecting branch pipe group 152 is communicated with the other end of the outlet header pipe 104 in the second direction Y.

[0041] Referring to Figure 2 The diameter of the inlet flange pipe 106 is smaller than the diameter of the outlet flange pipe 107.

[0042] Referring to Figure 2 The outlet flange pipe 107 extends along the third direction Z and is connected to the top of the outlet header pipe 104 in the third direction Z. The inlet flange pipe 106 is L-shaped, and the inlet flange pipe 106 includes a first pipe segment and a second pipe segment. The first pipe segment extends along the third direction Z, and the second pipe segment extends along the first direction X. One end of the second pipe segment is communicated with the first pipe segment, and the other end of the second pipe segment is communicated with one side of the inlet header pipe 102 in the first direction X.

[0043] Referring to Figure 2 The inlet flange 101 is arranged at one end of the first pipe segment away from the second pipe segment, and the outlet flange 103 is arranged at one end of the outlet flange pipe 107 away from the outlet header pipe 104. The inlet flange 101 is communicated with the inlet header pipe 102 through the thinner inlet flange pipe 106 to distribute the LNG outside the upstream boundary into the system. The two sides of the inlet header pipe 102 are respectively connected with the heat exchange pipe bundle 105, which is merged into the outlet header pipe 104 directly above after passing through the heat exchange section of six returns. The gas phase natural gas is expanded from the large-diameter outlet flange 103 to leave the boundary of the submerged combustion vaporization device and enter the pipe network for transportation.

[0044] In the normal operation of the submerged combustion gasification device, LNG enters the heat exchange coil 1 through the inlet flange 101, and the inlet header 102 distributes the LNG to the first side connection branch pipe group 151 and the second side connection branch pipe group 152 of the heat exchange coil 1 from both sides. The high-temperature flue gas generated by the burner enters the flue gas inlet 201, then enters the flue gas main pipe 202, and then uniformly enters each flue gas branch pipe 203, and then bubbles into the water bath in the cofferdam frame 3 through the smoke exhaust hole 204 to perform efficient gas-liquid heat exchange. After the water bath heat exchange, the gas phase natural gas is collected to the outlet header 104, and then output from the outlet flange 103. Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 The flue gas distribution pipe 2 is fixed on the cofferdam frame 3, and the flue gas distribution pipe 2 includes the flue gas main pipe 202 and the flue gas branch pipe 203 which are communicated. Specifically, the flue gas main pipe 202 and the flue gas branch pipe 203 are fixedly connected to the support 31.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 The flue gas main pipe 202 extends along the first direction X and is at least partially arranged in the containing space 153. One end of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the first direction X is sealed, and the other end of the flue gas main pipe in the first direction X is provided with the flue gas inlet 201, and the flue gas inlet 201 is communicated with the burner. In this embodiment, the flue gas inlet 201 is located outside the cofferdam frame 3. In other embodiments, the position, shape and size of the flue gas inlet 201 of the flue gas main pipe, the structure coupling of the heat exchange coil 1 and the flue gas distribution pipe 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 The size of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the second direction Y is smaller than the size of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the third direction Z. That is, the width of the flue gas main pipe 202 is smaller than the height, which is beneficial to improve the space utilization. The projection of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the plane perpendicular to the first direction X is rectangular or circular rectangular. In this embodiment, the projection of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the plane perpendicular to the first direction X is circular rectangular.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 The flue gas branch pipe 203 is fixedly connected to at least one side of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the second direction Y, and the flue gas branch pipe 203 is arranged in the cofferdam frame 3, and the flue gas branch pipe 203 is arranged along the third direction Z and located below the heat exchange pipe bundle 105. In this embodiment, the flue gas branch pipe 203 is fixedly connected to both sides of the flue gas main pipe 202 in the second direction Y.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 3, one end of the flue gas branch pipe 203 in the second direction Y is communicated with the flue gas main pipe 202, the other end of the flue gas branch pipe 203 in the second direction Y is sealed, and the flue gas branch pipe 203 is provided with a plurality of flue gas discharge holes 204 at the top of the third direction Z, and the flue gas discharge holes 204 are arranged correspondingly with the heat exchange pipe bundle 105. Specifically, the size of the flue gas branch pipe 203, the opening size of the flue gas discharge hole 204 and the like can be adjusted according to the amount of flue gas generated by the rated power of the upstream burner.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 3 , the support leg 205 is arranged at one end of the flue gas branch pipe 203 away from the flue gas main pipe 202, and the support leg 205 is used for fixedly connecting the flue gas branch pipe 203 and the cofferdam frame 3. The cofferdam frame 3 is responsible for fixing and supporting the heat exchange coil 1 and the flue gas distribution pipe 2, and forms a water bath space for efficient heat exchange.

[0050] In some embodiments, a switch valve is arranged at the connection position of the flue gas branch pipe 203 and the flue gas main pipe 202. The switch valve can be adjusted in opening degree to control the heat exchange efficiency, so that the temperature of LNG in the heat exchange coil 1 is controllable. In use, the flue gas distribution pipe 2 bubbles up the high-temperature flue gas generated by the front-end burner from the flue gas discharge hole 204 of the flue gas branch pipe 203 in the cofferdam frame in the water bath pool, forming a heat exchange working condition, while the low-temperature liquefied natural gas (LNG) enters the heat exchange coil 1, and the flue gas directly exchanges heat by bubbling to release heat to the medium water in the water bath pool, and the medium water in the water bath pool heats the LNG through the heat exchange pipe bundle 105 of the heat exchange coil 1, finally realizing the endothermic process of the LNG. In this process, the waste heat of the high-temperature flue gas is used to heat the low-temperature liquefied natural gas LNG.

[0051] As Figure 4 shown, a schematic diagram of the internal flow field of the submerged combustion gasifier is shown, the flue gas enters the cofferdam frame 3 from the bottom of the heat exchange coil 1 by jet bubbling through the flue gas distribution pipe 2, the high-temperature flue gas is rapidly cooled and decelerated in the water bath, and the two-phase flow formed continuously sweeps the heat exchange pipe bundle 105, and efficient heat exchange is performed. Due to the upward surge of the two-phase flow from the two sides, the longitudinal shear force together forms a circulating flow field at the edge. Overflow is generated at the upper edge of the cofferdam frame 3, and the fluid outside the cofferdam frame 3 generates a downward flow field to re-enter the lower part of the cofferdam frame 3 to supplement the total liquid phase inside the cofferdam frame 3. The stable and symmetrical flow field is beneficial to the stable gasification of the LNG by the submerged combustion gasification device.

Moreover, the flue gas main pipe 202 is arranged in the containing space 153 of the heat exchange tube bundle 105, so that the heat exchange tube bundle 105 is arranged around the flue gas main pipe 202 to effectively obtain the exhaust smoke waste heat. The flue gas branch pipe 203 is arranged in the cofferdam frame 3 and below the heat exchange tube bundle 105, so that the water temperature is balanced, the temperature unevenness is avoided, the energy utilization rate is improved as a whole, the heat exchange coefficient is high, and the exhaust smoke heat loss is reduced. The total water proportion and the thermal inertia inside the cofferdam frame 3 are improved, the stability and the heat exchange efficiency of the gasification process of the immersion combustion gasification device are improved, the exhaust smoke heat loss is reduced, and the energy saving is better.
