Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam turbine heat recovery technology, specifically a power plant steam turbine condensate heat recovery device. Background Technology
[0002] A steam turbine, also known as a steam engine, is a rotary steam power unit. High-temperature, high-pressure steam passes through a fixed nozzle, becomes an accelerated airflow, and is then injected onto the blades, causing the rotor equipped with a row of blades to rotate. The steam turbine converts internal energy into mechanical energy, which drives the generator on the same shaft to rotate. During the startup process, the steam turbine provides heat by heating the condensate drain. However, a large amount of steam is lost during the process of generating steam from the condensate drain. Therefore, a condensate drain heat recovery device for power plant steam turbines is needed.
[0003] A Chinese patent with publication number CN218627818U discloses a hydrophobic heat recovery device for power plant steam turbines. The device includes a base, a recovery chamber fixed to the upper surface of the base, a heating seat fixed to the upper surface of the base, a connecting pipe fixed between the recovery chamber and the inner wall of the heating seat, a heat dissipation groove inside one outer wall of the heating seat, a sealing cover rotatably connected to the heat dissipation groove via a hinge, a hanging ring fixed to the front surface of the sealing cover, a drain pipe fixed to the outer wall of the heating seat below the sealing cover, and a drain groove inside the heating seat. This utility model provides a hydrophobic heat recovery device for power plant steam turbines. When high-temperature steam enters the heating seat, the steam cools and condenses into water droplets during prolonged heating. When the water level inside the heating seat reaches a certain point, the user can collect this distilled water by opening a ball valve inside the drain pipe for unified treatment, thus achieving the function of heat recovery.
[0004] While the above-mentioned solution has the advantage of conveniently collecting distilled water, when drying items directly with high-temperature steam, it may cause excessive heat to some items, leading to deformation or discoloration, affecting the quality and appearance of the items. Therefore, we propose a power plant steam turbine condensate heat recovery device. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the above-mentioned shortcomings by providing a power plant steam turbine condensate heat recovery device. By setting up a heat-conducting component, it solves the problem that when items are dried directly by high-temperature steam, the heat may be too high, causing the items to deform or discolor, thus affecting the quality and appearance of the items.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A heat recovery device for steam turbine condensate in a power plant includes a recovery chamber and a drying chamber arranged adjacent to each other. A recovery pipe is connected at one end to the recovery chamber. A grid and a partition are arranged sequentially from top to bottom in the drying chamber, dividing the drying chamber into a drying zone, a uniform heating zone, and a heat exchange and condensation zone. The heat exchange and condensation zone is equipped with a heat-conducting component and a condensation component. The heat-conducting component in the recovery chamber and the heat exchange and condensation zone are connected by a conveying component. The heat-conducting component is connected to the condensation component. The uniform heating zone is equipped with a heat dissipation component. The bottom end of the heat dissipation component passes through the partition and connects to the heat-conducting component. The heat dissipation component is used to conduct and dissipate the heat in the heat-conducting component to the uniform heating zone. The condensation component is used to condense the steam after heat exchange.
[0008] Furthermore, the conveying assembly includes a horizontal pipe and a conveying fan disposed on the horizontal pipe; the heat conduction assembly includes a conveying pipe with one end connected to the horizontal pipe, and two heat conduction pipes are connected to one end of the conveying pipe via a tee; multiple sets of heat dissipation components are provided, and the multiple sets of heat dissipation components are distributed in a matrix on the conveying pipe and the heat conduction pipes.
[0009] Furthermore, the heat pipe is S-shaped.
[0010] Furthermore, the heat dissipation component includes a heat-conducting sleeve fixedly sleeved on a heat-conducting pipe or a delivery pipe, a heat-conducting column connected to the bottom end of the heat-conducting sleeve, and a heat-conducting base extending into the heat-uniforming zone at the top end of the heat-conducting column. The heat-conducting base is provided with multiple heat dissipation fins.
[0011] Furthermore, the condensation assembly includes a collection box, a vertical pipe connected to the top of the collection box, a pipe body connected to the bottom of the vertical pipe, multiple nozzles installed on the pipe body, a plate condenser disposed below the nozzles, and the end of the heat-conducting pipe away from the delivery pipe is connected to the collection box through a connecting pipe. The nozzles spray hot steam toward the plate condenser.
[0012] Furthermore, a water outlet pipe communicating with the heat exchange condensation zone is provided on one side of the drying chamber, and the water outlet pipe is located near the bottom of the drying chamber.
[0013] Furthermore, an air intake fan is installed at one end of the recovery pipe that extends into the recovery chamber.
[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a sealed door located on one side of the drying chamber.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] In practical applications, the recovery pipe is connected to the steam turbine. Steam from the turbine enters the recovery chamber through the recovery pipe and is then conveyed to the heat-conducting component via the conveying assembly. The heat is then dissipated through the heat dissipation components to the uniform heating zone, evenly heating and drying the items on the grid. This process recovers and utilizes the heat, avoiding damage to the surface of the items caused by direct contact with high temperatures. The steam after heat dissipation is condensed by the condensation component. This invention addresses the problem that direct drying with high-temperature steam may cause excessive heat to some items, leading to deformation or discoloration, affecting the quality and appearance of the items.
