[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a waste heat recovery device for sintering flue gas, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] (1) In this utility model, the sintering flue gas enters the lower heat exchange plate through the inlet pipe, causing the sintering flue gas to be diverted in the lower heat exchange plate and enter several heat exchange tubes.

[0028] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figs. 1-3As shown, a waste heat recovery device for sintering flue gas according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a waste heat recovery tank 1. An air inlet pipe 6 is inserted and installed on the lower surface of the waste heat recovery tank 1, and a filter box 8 is installed on the surface of the air inlet pipe 6. One end of the air inlet pipe 6 is connected to a flue gas inlet pipe 7 through a flange, and the other end of the air inlet pipe 6 extends into the waste heat recovery tank 1 and connects to a lower heat exchange plate 2.

[0029] In one embodiment, several inclined filter plates 19 are installed in parallel inside the filter box 8, and an activated carbon filter screen 20 is embedded on the surface of each inclined filter plate 19. The activated carbon filter screens 20 of two adjacent inclined filter plates 19 are installed in opposite positions. A maintenance port is provided on the side of the filter box 8, and a maintenance plate 17 fixedly connected to the filter box 8 is installed around the maintenance port by screws. By filling the sintering flue gas into the flue gas inlet pipe 7, the sintering flue gas is forced to enter the filter box 8 of the inlet pipe 6 through the flue gas inlet pipe 7. Since several inclined filter plates 19 are arranged in parallel inside the filter box 8, and the activated carbon filter screens 20 of two adjacent inclined filter plates 19 are arranged in opposite directions, the sintering flue gas passes through several inclined filter plates 19 in a serpentine direction to filter the particulate matter in the sintering flue gas. Combined with the maintenance plate 17 installed by screws on the side of the filter box 8, the sintering flue gas filtration is satisfied while the subsequent particulate matter is easily cleaned, avoiding the situation where particulate matter adheres to the inner wall of the lower heat exchange plate 2, the upper heat exchange plate 3, and several heat exchange tubes 4, which causes a decrease in the efficiency of flue gas waste heat recovery.

[0031] In one embodiment, the liquid level inside the waste heat recovery tank 1 is higher than the installation height of the upper heat exchange plate 3. This allows cold water to submerge the upper heat exchange plate 3, facilitating the efficient recovery of waste heat from sintering flue gas.
[0032] In one embodiment, the surfaces of the first heat-conducting fin 9 and the second heat-conducting fin 10 are provided with a plurality of U-shaped notches at equal intervals. By setting a plurality of U-shaped notches, it is easy to increase the surface area of the first heat-conducting fin 9 and the second heat-conducting fin 10, thereby increasing the heat exchange effect.
[0033] In one embodiment, a plurality of heat exchange tubes 4 are arranged around the center of the lower heat exchange plate 2, and the two ends of the heat exchange tubes 4 are respectively connected to the upper heat exchange plate 3 and the lower heat exchange plate 2. By arranging a plurality of heat exchange tubes 4, it is easy to divert the sintering flue gas of the lower heat exchange plate 2, increase the heat exchange contact area between the sintering flue gas and the cold water in the waste heat recovery tank 1, and improve the heat exchange efficiency.
[0034] Working principle: First, sintering flue gas is introduced into the inlet pipe 7, causing it to enter the filter box 8 of the inlet pipe 6. Since several inclined filter plates 19 are arranged parallel to each other inside the filter box 8, and the activated carbon filter screens 20 of adjacent inclined filter plates 19 are arranged in opposite directions, the sintering flue gas passes through the inclined filter plates 19 in a serpentine manner, filtering out particulate matter. During waste heat recovery, the sintering flue gas enters the lower heat exchange plate 2 through the inlet pipe 6, causing it to be split within the lower heat exchange plate 2 and enter several heat exchange tubes 4. It then converges through the upper heat exchange plate 3 and is discharged through the outlet pipe 5. During this process, several first heat-conducting fins 9 are arranged around the surface of the heat exchange tubes 4, and the lower... Several second heat-conducting fins 10 are respectively arranged around the phase separation surfaces of heat exchange plate 2 and upper heat exchange plate 3, so that the heat of sintering flue gas can be diffused into the cold water in the waste heat recovery tank 1 in the form of heat conduction during the process of passing through lower heat exchange plate 2, upper heat exchange plate 3 and several heat exchange tubes 4. When the temperature value detected by temperature sensor 13 reaches the preset value of controller 12, controller 12 opens the electric valve 16 on the surface of water outlet pipe 15 to discharge hot water heated to the set temperature. When the liquid level sensor 11 detects that the water level is lower than the preset value, controller 12 opens the electric valve 16 of water supply pipe 14 to inject water. While satisfying the waste heat recovery of flue gas, it is easy to continuously provide hot water with a constant water temperature, which is convenient for providing washing water for the production workshop dormitory.
