Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum furnace technology, and in particular to a low-resistance flue gas guiding device for aluminum furnaces. Background Technology
[0002] In the aluminum smelting industry, aluminum furnaces generate large amounts of high-temperature, complex flue gas during operation. This flue gas contains not only pollutants such as dust and sulfur dioxide, but also carries a significant amount of heat. Traditional aluminum furnace flue gas systems suffer from numerous problems:
[0003] Ordinary flue gas ducts have a simple structure and lack effective flow guidance for flue gas. Flue gas easily forms turbulence within the duct, leading to increased local resistance and affecting exhaust efficiency. In some furnaces using straight-cylinder flue gas ducts, large eddies form at bends, hindering the smooth discharge of subsequent flue gas, increasing internal furnace pressure, and consequently affecting smelting speed and quality. Direct discharge of high-temperature flue gas results in significant heat energy waste. In traditional flue gas systems, most heat is lost with the flue gas and not fully utilized. Therefore, we propose a low-resistance flue gas guiding device for aluminum furnaces. Utility Model Content

[0033] In this embodiment, the flue gas heat recovery assembly 1 further includes a flue gas transmission pipe 19 and a heat conduction coil 20. One end of the flue gas transmission pipe 19 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the exhaust box 13, and the heat conduction coil 20 is fixedly installed at the other end of the flue gas transmission pipe 19. The heat conduction coil 20 is fixedly installed inside the water flow heating circulation box 7.
[0034] In this embodiment, the flue gas guiding and filtering cleaning assembly 2 includes a flue gas discharge pipe 21, a debris collection drawer 22, a drain pipe 23, and a second water inlet pipe 24. The flue gas discharge pipe 21 is fixedly installed at the output end of the heat conduction coil 20 and is fixedly installed inside the filter box 8.
