Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a device for recovering and utilizing the waste heat of high-temperature flue gas from an air cushion furnace. Background Technology
[0002] First, the automotive panel workshop requires a large amount of heat energy during the production process. The heating boiler heats water by burning fuel to produce steam or hot water, providing the necessary heat energy support for the workshop and ensuring the normal operation of the production line.
[0003] For example, the heating boiler in Ruimin Company's automotive panel workshop consumes 40,000-50,000 cubic meters of natural gas per month. Based on a 30-day, 24-hour production schedule, the actual average heating power of the boiler, W1, is calculated as follows: W1 = 40,000 (monthly natural gas consumption) * 35,588 * 90% (boiler efficiency) / 24 (hours) / 30 (days) / 3600 (seconds) ≈ 500kW. The boiler outlet water temperature is set to 97℃, with an actual outlet water temperature of 93-97℃ and a return water temperature of 80-84℃ (calculated based on an average of 82℃; the temperature difference between the return water and the heat exchanger exhaust should be calculated at least 10℃, i.e., 92℃). The continuous annealing line and the surface treatment line share a circulating pump with a nameplate flow rate of 300 m³ / h. Therefore, the maximum return water flow of the continuous annealing line is 150 m³ / h, with an actual operating flow rate of approximately 50-100 m³ / h.
[0004] In summary, the heating boiler in the automotive panel workshop requires a large amount of natural gas to heat the water.
[0005] Secondly, the flue gas temperature of the gas cushion furnace is approximately 250-300℃ (calculated based on 250℃). Based on the natural gas consumption of the gas cushion furnace, the amount of flue gas emitted can be calculated, and the usable waste heat is approximately:
[0006] W2 = Exhaust gas mass flow rate * flue gas temperature difference * flue gas specific heat * flue gas utilization rate =
[0007] [10000*273 / (273+250)*1.2]*(250-92)*1.01*85% / 3600≈236kW.
[0008] In summary, existing devices cannot recover and utilize waste heat, resulting in a significant waste of energy.
[0009] Therefore, in order to realize the waste heat recovery and utilization of the high-temperature flue gas of the air cushion furnace, and in order to reduce the amount of natural gas consumed by the heating boiler in the automotive panel workshop, this case proposes a device for waste heat recovery and utilization of the high-temperature flue gas of the air cushion furnace, and carries out waste heat recovery modification to achieve energy saving and consumption reduction.
