Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to iron water equipment technical field, especially relates to a kind of air evaporation cooler steady pressure auxiliary cooling device for iron water treatment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Generally, air evaporation cooler reduces air temperature by using latent heat of water evaporation. The specific process includes: (1) cooling water circulation: cooling water is sucked from the water storage tank by circulating water pump and sprayed on the heat transfer tube bundle. Water flows down in film shape on the outer surface of the tube and finally falls into the water tank for recycling; (2) evaporative cooling: when water evaporates on the outer surface of the heat transfer tube, it absorbs a large amount of heat, and this process is called evaporative cooling. The latent heat of evaporation reduces the temperature of the medium inside the tube, thereby achieving the effect of cooling; (3) air flow: the axial flow induced draft fan sucks fresh air from the air window outside the cooler on all sides, carries away water vapor, creates conditions for continuous evaporation of water film, and further reduces air temperature. It has a wide application in the process of iron water treatment in water plant.

[0003] However, air evaporation cooler is greatly affected by the environment, especially in dry environment, the effect is not good, and it may increase the humidity of the environment. In actual production process, it is found that the water level of the water tank of the air cooler is lower than the water inlet of the spray pump due to water floating and other conditions. When this situation occurs, the air cooler can only be shut down and wait for the water to be replenished to the safe liquid level; when the outdoor temperature is too high in summer, the spray water cannot be effectively cooled due to high operating load, thereby affecting the cooling effect of the cooling water for blast furnace.

[0004] In summary, when facing the situation of unstable water level in the cooler tank and high temperature of the spray water, the operation effect of the air cooler will be seriously affected, and even due to the low water level in the tank, the spray pump cannot be started, etc., causing single or multiple air coolers to be shut down, which will affect the supply of cooling water for blast furnace production and cause more serious production stop.
