Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waste heat utilization equipment technology, specifically a waste heat utilization device for a flue gas heat exchanger. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, with the continuous and effective development and utilization of natural gas resources in my country, a large number of oil and gas field stations have been equipped with natural gas generator sets. The flue gas generated by these generator sets can reach temperatures as high as 500℃. It is estimated that of the energy generated by the natural gas consumed by these generator sets, only about 35% is converted into electricity, while about 30% is discharged with the exhaust gas.
[0003] Existing public patent: CN201420748217.6 A heat exchanger for a device that uses waste heat from flue gas to heat hot water. In this device, after the flue gas enters the flue box from the inlet, it flows along the flue formed by the flue box and the baffle plate under the action of the axial flow fan at the outlet, and is finally discharged from the outlet. The high-temperature flue gas conducts heat out of the flue box through the baffle plate, the box body and the heat conduction pipe in the flue, realizing the utilization of waste heat from flue gas and heat exchange.
[0004] However, because the flue gas contains soot and dust, a large amount of dust will accumulate on the inner wall of the heat exchanger after a period of use. The accumulation of dust to a certain thickness will affect the heat conversion, thereby affecting the heating efficiency of the heat pipe and the efficiency of the device, resulting in a waste of resources. Manual cleaning is laborious and difficult, which reduces the practicality of the device. Utility Model Content
