Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of boiler economizer technology, specifically to a boiler economizer anti-wear device. Background Technology
[0002] The working principle of a boiler economizer is based on heat exchange. In the boiler's tail flue, high-temperature flue gas passes through the economizer's pipes, which contain boiler feedwater. Heat from the flue gas is transferred to the feedwater through the pipe walls, gradually increasing the feedwater temperature while the flue gas temperature decreases accordingly. In this process, the economizer effectively recovers waste heat from the flue gas, reducing heat waste. After absorbing heat, the feedwater enters the boiler for further heating and evaporation. Because the feedwater is partially preheated, the amount of fuel required to heat the feedwater to the desired temperature is reduced, thereby improving the boiler's thermal efficiency.
[0003] The economizer is an important component of the boiler system. Its function is to use the waste heat of the flue gas at the tail end of the boiler to heat the feedwater, thereby improving the boiler's thermal efficiency. In actual operation, the economizer tubes are often subjected to scouring and wear from solid particles in the flue gas, resulting in thinning of the tube walls and even leakage, which seriously affects the safe operation and service life of the boiler.
[0004] Therefore, a wear prevention device for boiler economizers is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a wear-resistant device for boiler economizers in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A wear-resistant device for a boiler economizer includes an economizer shell. Multiple sets of heat exchange pipes are equidistantly installed on the front and rear side walls of the economizer shell. Several sets of annular fins are provided on the inner surface of the heat exchange pipes to increase the contact area with flue gas. A flue gas guide hood is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the economizer shell below the heat exchange pipes. Ceramic filter plates are fixedly installed between the flue gas guide hoods and between the flue gas guide hood and the inner wall of the economizer shell.
[0008] Furthermore, square pipe openings are fixedly installed at both ends of the economizer shell, and rectangular connecting flanges are fixedly installed at the ends of the square pipe openings to connect with the boiler flue.
[0009] Furthermore, an annular connecting flange is fixedly installed at the end of the heat exchange pipe, and the end of the heat exchange pipe is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe body through the annular connecting flange.
[0010] Furthermore, a wear-resistant coating is provided on the surface of the heat exchange pipe and between the annular fins on its surface, and the heat exchange pipe is made of carbon steel pipe, and the wear-resistant coating is a graphene composite coating.
[0011] Furthermore, the flue gas guide hood includes a horizontal plate fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the economizer shell, and an arc-shaped guide plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the horizontal plate. A vertical guide plate is fixedly installed on the top surface of the arc-shaped guide plate, and the distance between the two sets of arc-shaped guide plates and the vertical guide plate is greater than the diameter of the heat exchange pipe.
[0012] Furthermore, the ceramic filter plate is located directly below the gap between the two sets of heat exchange pipes.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] By circulating flue gas inside the economizer shell, and through a flue gas guide hood located below and corresponding to the heat exchange pipes, the flue gas is guided to flow along the gap between adjacent heat exchange pipes, preventing the flue gas from directly impacting the surface of the heat exchange pipes. The annular fins on the surface of the heat exchange pipes increase the contact area with the flue gas, improving the efficiency of heat exchange. Ceramic filter plates between the flue gas guide hoods and between the flue gas guide hoods and the inner wall of the economizer shell filter and block large particles in the flue gas.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, a boiler economizer anti-wear device includes an economizer shell 1. Multiple sets of heat exchange pipes 2 are installed at equal intervals on the front and rear side walls of the economizer shell 1. Several sets of annular fins 3 are provided on the surface of the heat exchange pipes 2 inside the economizer shell 1 to increase the contact area with the flue gas. A flue gas guide hood 5 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the economizer shell 1 and below the heat exchange pipes 2. Ceramic filter plates 6 are fixedly installed between the flue gas guide hoods 5 and between the flue gas guide hoods 5 and the inner wall of the economizer shell 1. More specifically, the flue gas flows inside the economizer shell 1 and is guided by the flue gas guide hood 5 located below and corresponding to the heat exchange pipe 2, thus allowing the flue gas to flow along the gap between adjacent heat exchange pipes 2. This prevents the flue gas from directly impacting the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2. The annular fins 3 on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2 increase the contact area with the flue gas, improving the efficiency of heat exchange. The ceramic filter plates 6 between the flue gas guide hood 5 and between the flue gas guide hood 5 and the inner wall of the economizer shell 1 filter and block large particles in the flue gas.
[0025] Square pipe openings 11 are fixedly installed at both ends of the economizer shell 1, and rectangular connecting flanges 12 are fixedly installed at the ends of the square pipe openings 11 to connect with the boiler flue. More specifically, the rectangular connecting flanges 12 of the square pipe openings 11 at the ends of the economizer shell 1 enable connection with the boiler flue.
[0026] An annular connecting flange 21 is fixedly installed at the end of the heat exchange pipe 2, and the end of the heat exchange pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe body 4 through the annular connecting flange 21. More specifically, the annular connecting flange 21 at the end of the heat exchange pipe 2 enables it to be connected to the connecting pipe body 4, so that the connecting pipe body 4 is connected and fixed to multiple sets of heat exchange pipes 2.
[0027] A wear-resistant coating 22 is provided on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2, between the annular fins 3 on its surface. The heat exchange pipe 2 is made of carbon steel, and the wear-resistant coating 22 is a graphene composite coating. More specifically, by providing the wear-resistant coating 22 on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2, it has the advantages of dense structure, low porosity, high hardness, and good wear and corrosion resistance.
[0028] The flue gas guide hood 5 includes a horizontal plate 501 fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the economizer shell 1, and an arc-shaped guide plate 502 fixedly installed on both sides of the horizontal plate 501. A vertical guide plate 503 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the arc-shaped guide plate 502, and the distance between the two sets of arc-shaped guide plates 502 and vertical guide plates 503 is greater than the diameter of the heat exchange pipe 2. More specifically, the arc-shaped guide plates 502 and vertical guide plates 503 on both sides of the horizontal plate 501 can block the flue gas and guide it to flow along the gap between the heat exchange pipes 2.
[0029] The ceramic filter plate 6 is located directly below the gap between the two sets of heat exchange pipes 2. More specifically, the ceramic filter plate 6 is used to filter large particles in the flue gas during its flow.
[0030] In summary: By allowing the flue gas to flow inside the economizer shell 1, and through the flue gas guide hood 5 located below and corresponding to the heat exchange pipe 2, the flue gas can be guided to flow along the gap between adjacent heat exchange pipes 2, preventing the flue gas from directly impacting the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2. The annular fins 3 on the surface of the heat exchange pipe 2 increase the contact area with the flue gas, improving the efficiency of heat exchange. The ceramic filter plates 6 between the flue gas guide hood 5 and between the flue gas guide hood 5 and the inner wall of the economizer shell 1 filter and block large particles in the flue gas.
