Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of natural gas boiler technology, specifically a natural gas boiler with a condensate recovery device. Background Technology
[0002] A natural gas boiler is an energy conversion device. The energy input to the boiler includes the chemical energy of the fuel and electrical energy. The boiler outputs steam, high-temperature water or organic heat carrier with a certain amount of thermal energy.
[0003] However, the flue gas condensate of existing boilers is basically simply treated to meet emission standards and then directly discharged into the municipal pipe network without recycling and reuse, which easily leads to resource waste. To address this, we propose a natural gas boiler with a condensate recovery device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a natural gas boiler with a condensate recovery device, which can quickly filter and recover the condensate after the output steam is cooled and condensed, and the recovered water is discharged back into the boiler, thereby achieving the purpose of water resource recycling and avoiding resource waste. This can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a filter plate. A slot is provided in the middle of the front surface of the condensate recovery tank, and a filter plate is inserted into the slot. Guide rails are slidably connected to the left and right sides of the lower surface of the filter plate, and the outer surface of the guide rails is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the condensate recovery tank. The filter plate can perform preliminary filtration of condensate, preventing water stains or rust residue in the pipes from damaging the boiler, thereby making the equipment safer to use.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a pressure relief valve.

The heat-conducting plates can conduct heat quickly, ensuring that the inner cylinder inside the boiler is heated evenly, and avoiding heat loss or uneven heat transfer that would cause energy waste.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a hoop, which is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, and the inner ring surface of the hoop is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer surface of the shell; the hoop can reinforce the top of the support frame and prevent the support frame from shaking or shifting, thus affecting the safety performance of the boiler during use.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a heat insulation board, which is made of high-temperature resistant material and is attached to the inner surface of the outer shell; the heat insulation board can effectively retain heat and prevent heat loss from affecting the thermal energy utilization efficiency of the boiler.
