TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of molten salt energy storage, in particular to a molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device with magnetic stirring. BACKGROUND
[0002] There is a molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device, which comprises a molten salt tank, an electric heating unit and a heat exchange pipeline, the molten salt tank is filled with molten salt, the electric heating unit is inserted into the molten salt in the tank from the top of the molten salt tank, the electric heating unit is used for heating the molten salt, and the heat exchange pipeline comprises an inlet close to the bottom of the molten salt tank and an outlet close to the top of the molten salt tank.
[0003] When the molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device stores heat, the electric heating unit heats the molten salt to be molten, the density of the molten salt decreases with the increase of the temperature, and the higher the temperature of the molten salt, the smaller the density. With the continuation of the heating process, the molten salt with higher temperature and smaller density rises, and the molten salt with lower temperature and larger density sinks, and the heat of the lower molten salt is transmitted upward, so that the heat is concentrated in the upper molten salt. When the upper molten salt is heated to the highest use temperature, the electric heating unit stops working, but at this time the temperature of the lower molten salt in the tank is still low, the temperature distribution of the molten salt in the tank is high at the top and low at the bottom, and the heat storage capacity of the lower molten salt in the tank is not fully utilized, resulting in cost waste.
[0004] When the molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device releases heat, the water enters from the bottom and exits from the top, and the heat exchange pipeline comprises a preheating section, a boiling section and a superheating section from bottom to top. The heat transfer coefficient, heat transfer temperature difference and heat transfer amount of the preheating section and the boiling section are significantly higher than those of the superheating section, so the temperature of the lower molten salt in the molten salt tank decreases faster than that of the upper molten salt, which also promotes the temperature distribution of the molten salt in the tank to be high at the top and low at the bottom, resulting in that the heat release capacity of the upper molten salt in the tank is not fully utilized. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a magnetically stirred molten salt thermal storage and heat exchange device with ingenious design and simple structure. By inserting a stirring shaft from the top of the tank into the tank body and using a drive motor to drive the upper end of the stirring shaft, the entire stirring shaft rotates. This avoids openings at the bottom of the tank, reducing the risk of leakage. Furthermore, placing the drive assembly on the top of the tank does not alter the original force distribution at the bottom of the tank (the bottom of the tank rests on a horizontal bearing surface), ensuring uniform force distribution. On the other hand, the magnetic coupling enables non-contact transmission between the drive motor output and the stirring shaft, preventing heat from the stirring shaft from being directly transferred to the drive motor and related components directly connected (contact connection) via heat conduction, thus reducing the risk of damage to the drive motor and related components due to high temperatures. In this application, both the driving and driven ends of the magnetic coupling are located outside the tank body, further reducing the risk of damage to the driven end due to high temperatures. This application improves the stirring effect of molten salt in the tank by setting helical blades on the stirring shaft, allowing molten salt at different heights in the tank to be fully mixed. This improves the temperature uniformity of the molten salt in the vertical direction, thereby increasing the utilization rate of the molten salt's heat storage and release capacity. The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0006] A magnetically stirred molten salt thermal storage and heat exchange device, comprising:
[0007] The tank comprises a tank body with heat exchange pipes on its walls, and is suitable for filling molten salt thermal storage material; a heating device inserted vertically into the molten salt thermal storage material within the tank body for heating the material; a stirring shaft rotatably inserted vertically into the molten salt thermal storage material from the top of the tank body, the portion of the stirring shaft inside the tank body having helical blades, and the upper end of the shaft protruding from the tank body; a drive motor mounted on the top of the tank body; and a magnetic coupling comprising a driving end and a driven end, the driving end and the driven end being non-contactly connected, the driving end rotating to drive the driven end to rotate, the driving end being connected to the drive motor, and the driven end being coaxially fixed to the upper end of the stirring shaft; through the magnetic coupling, the drive motor can drive the stirring shaft to rotate, thereby causing the helical blades to stir the molten salt thermal storage material.
[0008] The stirring shaft is inserted into the tank body from the tank top, and the upper end of the stirring shaft is driven by the driving motor, and then the whole stirring shaft is driven to rotate, which avoids opening a hole in the bottom of the tank body and reduces the risk of leakage of the tank body. In addition, the driving assembly is arranged on the tank top, which does not change the original stress distribution form of the bottom of the tank body (the bottom of the tank body is placed on a horizontal bearing base surface), and the bottom of the tank body is still uniformly stressed. On the other hand, through the magnetic coupling transmission, the non-contact transmission between the output end of the driving motor and the stirring shaft is realized, so that the heat of the stirring shaft cannot be directly transmitted to the driving motor and the related components directly connected (contact connection) with the driving motor in the form of heat conduction, thereby reducing the risk of damage of the driving motor and the related components due to high temperature. In the present application, the driving end and the driven end of the magnetic coupling are located outside the tank body, which reduces the risk of damage of the driven end due to high temperature. In the present application, the helical blade is arranged on the stirring shaft, which improves the stirring effect of the molten salt in the tank, so that the molten salt at different heights in the tank can be fully mixed, the consistency of the molten salt temperature in the tank in the height direction is improved, and the utilization rate of the heat storage and heat release capacity of the molten salt is improved.

[0012] By arranging the driving motor horizontally and making the axis of the driving gear and the axis of the driven gear perpendicular to each other, the height of the whole molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device after the driving motor is installed can be reduced, and the height space can be saved.
[0013] In some embodiments, the driving motor is fixed vertically on the tank top of the tank body through a motor fixing support and located beside the axis of the magnetic coupling.

[0015] In some embodiments, the driving motor is fixed vertically on the top of the tank body through a motor fixing support, and the output end of the driving motor is directly connected with the driving end of the magnetic coupling.
[0016] By directly connecting the output end of the driving motor with the driving end of the magnetic coupling, compared with the transmission between the driving motor and the driving end through the transmission gear set, the driving efficiency of the driving motor can be ensured.
[0017] In some embodiments, the part of the stirring shaft exposed to the tank body is sleeved with a fixed bearing, and the fixed bearing is fixed on the top of the tank body through a bearing fixing support.
[0018] By sleeving the part of the stirring shaft exposed to the tank body with the fixed bearing, the fixed bearing is located outside the tank body, and the risk of damage of the fixed bearing due to high temperature in the tank can be reduced.
[0019] In some embodiments, the part of the stirring shaft located in the tank body is provided with a stirring support, and the stirring support is larger than the helical blade in the radial dimension of the tank body.

In addition, the driving assembly is arranged on the top of the tank, which does not change the original stress distribution form of the bottom of the tank (the bottom of the tank is placed on a horizontal bearing base surface), and the bottom of the tank is still uniformly stressed. On the other hand, by using the magnetic coupling transmission, non-contact transmission between the output end of the driving motor and the stirring shaft is realized, so that the heat of the stirring shaft cannot be directly transferred to the driving motor and the related components directly connected (contact connection) with the driving motor by heat conduction, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the driving motor and the related components due to high temperature. In the present application, the driving end and the driven end of the magnetic coupling are located outside the tank body, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the driven end due to high temperature.

[0050] It can be understood that, by inserting the stirring shaft 2 into the tank body 1 from the tank top and driving the upper end of the stirring shaft 2 by the driving motor 3, the whole stirring shaft 2 is driven to rotate, which avoids opening a hole in the bottom of the tank body 1 and reduces the risk of leakage of the tank body 1. In addition, the driving assembly is arranged on the tank top, which does not change the original stress distribution form of the bottom of the tank body 1 (the bottom of the tank body 1 is placed on a horizontal bearing base surface), and the bottom of the tank body 1 is still uniformly stressed. On the other hand, through the magnetic coupling transmission, the non-contact transmission between the output end of the driving motor 3 and the stirring shaft 2 is realized, so that the heat of the stirring shaft 2 cannot be directly transmitted to the driving motor 3 and the related components directly connected (contact connection) with the driving motor 3 in the form of heat conduction, reducing the risk of damage of the driving motor 3 and the related components due to high temperature. In the present application, the driving end 4 and the driven end 5 of the magnetic coupling are both located outside the tank body 1, reducing the risk of damage of the driven end 5 due to high temperature. In the present application, by providing the helical blade 6 on the stirring shaft 2, the stirring effect of the molten salt in the tank is improved, so that the molten salt at different heights in the tank can be fully mixed, the consistency of the molten salt temperature in the tank 1 in the height direction is improved, and the utilization rate of the heat storage and heat release capacity of the molten salt is improved.
[0051] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 3-6 In one embodiment, the molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device further comprises a transmission gear set 7, and the driving motor 3 drives the driving end 4 to rotate through the transmission gear set 7. It is easy to understand that, by providing the transmission gear set 7, the driving motor 3 and the driving end 4 transmit power through the transmission gear set 7, so that the driving motor 3 can be flexibly arranged, reducing the requirement of space for arranging the driving motor 3.
[0052] Reference Figure 1 , Figures 3-6 In a specific embodiment, the transmission gear set 7 comprises a driving gear 8 and a driven gear 9 which are engaged with each other, and the axis of the driving gear 8 and the axis of the driven gear 9 are perpendicular to each other; the driving motor 3 is fixed horizontally on the tank top of the tank body 1 through a motor fixing support 10, the driving gear 8 is installed on the output end of the driving motor 3; the driven gear 9 and the driving end 4 are respectively installed on both ends of a connecting shaft 11, and the connecting shaft 11 is rotatably fixed on the tank top of the tank body 1 through a bearing fixing support 12. This embodiment can reduce the height of the whole molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device after the driving motor 3 is installed, and can save height space. Specifically, the connecting shaft 11 is provided with a fixed bearing 18, and the fixed bearing 18 is fixed through the bearing fixing support 12.
[0053] In another embodiment (not shown), the driving motor 3 is fixed vertically on the tank top of the tank body 1 by the motor fixing support 10 and located beside the magnetic coupling axis. It can be understood that, by arranging the driving motor 3 vertically and locating the driving motor 3 beside the magnetic coupling axis, compared with the technical solution that the output end of the driving motor 3 is directly connected with the driving end 4 of the magnetic coupling, the height of the whole molten salt heat storage and heat exchange device after installation of the driving motor 3 can be reduced, and the height space is saved.
[0054] Different from the technical solution that the driving is realized through the transmission gear set 7, referring to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the driving motor 3 is fixed vertically on the tank top of the tank body 1 by the motor fixing support 10, and the output end of the driving motor 3 is directly connected with the driving end 4 of the magnetic coupling. It is worth noting that, by directly connecting the output end of the driving motor 3 with the driving end 4 of the magnetic coupling, compared with the technical solution that the driving motor 3 is driven through the transmission gear set 7 between the driving motor 3 and the driving end 4, the driving efficiency of the driving motor 3 can be ensured.

Preferably, the fixed bearing 18 is at least two, and the plurality of fixed bearings 18 are arranged at intervals. By sleeving the part of the stirring shaft 2 exposed to the tank body 1 with at least two fixed bearings 18 arranged at intervals, the degree of wear of the fixed bearing 18 when the stirring shaft 2 rotates can be reduced, and the stability of the stirring shaft 2 when rotating can be improved.

[0061] It is worth noting that by providing a cooling coil 17 on the exposed part of the stirring shaft 2, on the one hand, it reduces the temperature of the exposed part of the stirring shaft 2, which reduces the risk of damage to components in direct contact with the stirring shaft 2 due to high temperature, on the other hand, it can recycle the heat transferred to the stirring shaft 2 by the high-temperature molten salt in the tank 1, reduce energy waste, and improve energy efficiency.
