AI Technical Summary
In summer, the circulating water temperature at the outlet of the circulating water well in the coking primary cooler system is too high, which leads to an increase in the load on the chiller and a large amount of steam consumption. It is necessary to reduce the circulating water temperature to reduce the load on the chiller.
Design a circulating water device, including multiple primary coolers, cooling towers, circulating water wells, circulating water pumps, return water tanks, and piping systems. Adjust the mixing and cooling path of waste hot water and circulating water by operating modes under different ambient temperatures to reduce the temperature of the circulating water.
This achieves a circulating water well temperature below 32℃ under different ambient temperatures, reducing steam consumption, lowering the chiller load, and reducing circulating water replenishment.
