Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam-water separation technology, and more specifically, to a multifunctional steam-water separator. Background Technology

[0002] A steam-water separator is a pressure vessel that separates moisture from gas in high-temperature gas. It is widely used in steam removal systems or compressed air systems.

[0003] Currently, common steam-water separators typically have multiple baffles inside the tank. The fluid changes its flow direction multiple times within the separator. Due to the large mass and inertia of suspended water droplets, dry steam can bypass the baffles and continue forward, while water droplets tend to accumulate on the baffles, thus achieving steam-water separation. However, with long-term use, the baffles experience significant temperature rise, and water droplets may vaporize when passing through the baffles, affecting the steam-water separation efficiency. Furthermore, high-temperature and high-pressure fluids passing through the steam-water separator can easily generate significant noise inside the tank, impacting the working environment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional steam-water separator with higher separation efficiency and noise reduction effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A multifunctional gas-water separator includes a tank with an air inlet, an exhaust outlet, and a liquid outlet. A partition seals the tank, dividing it into two chambers. The air inlet and exhaust outlet are located in the two chambers respectively. A central tube runs through the center of the partition, connecting the two chambers. A condensation plate is fixed to both the tank and the central tube. The condensation plate is spirally shaped with unequal spacing and contains a flow passage. A floating switch is installed on the liquid outlet.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the condensation plate includes two guide plates, each guide plate being spiral in shape; the inner side of the guide plate is in contact with the central tube, and the outer side of the guide plate is in contact with the inner wall of the tank; the two guide plates are spaced apart; the gap formed between the two guide plates, the central tube, and the tank is a flow passage cavity; one end of the flow passage cavity near the drain port is connected to an inlet, and the other end of the flow passage cavity is connected to an outlet.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the central tube includes an outer tube sleeve and an inner tube sleeve, the outer tube sleeve is connected to the condensation plate, the inner tube sleeve and the outer tube sleeve are spaced apart, the gap between the inner tube sleeve and the outer tube sleeve is a flow passage cavity two, the flow passage cavity two is provided with a flow guide plate two, the flow guide plate two is spiral, a through hole is opened on the end of the outer tube sleeve away from the drain port, the through hole connects the flow passage cavity one and the flow passage cavity two, and the liquid outlet is connected to the end of the flow passage cavity two facing the drain port.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the floating switch includes a float plate, the float plate can be suspended on the liquid at the bottom of the tank, a spring is installed in the drain port, the free end of the spring faces the central tube, a plug is connected to the free end of the spring, the plug can block the drain port, and a lead wire is connected between the plug and the float plate.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the end of the tank body away from the drain port is covered with a top cover, and a diffuser plate is installed on the top cover, the diffuser plate being located at the gas outlet end of the central tube.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the diffuser disc includes several guide rods, the guide rods are fixed on the top cover, a disc body is slidably connected to all the guide rods, a second spring is sleeved on the guide rod, the two ends of the second spring are respectively fixed to the top cover and the disc body, the disc body is coaxially arranged with the central tube, the side of the disc body facing the central tube is conical, and the tip of the conical disc faces the central tube.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. By setting the condensation plate to a spiral shape with unequal spacing, the change in the flow area when the gas passes through the condensation plate causes a change in acoustic impedance, which causes the noise to be reflected back along the propagation direction, thus reducing the propagation of noise.

[0014] 2. A diffuser plate is installed at the gas outlet of the central pipe. The gas discharged from the central pipe is sprayed onto the diffuser plate. The conical plate body buffers and changes the direction of gas propagation, reducing the impact of gas on the top cover, thereby reducing noise generation.

[0015] 3. The condensation plate consists of two layers of guide plates, with a flow passage cavity formed between the two guide plates. Cooling water is passed into the flow passage cavity to maintain the low temperature of the condensation plate, thereby promoting the condensation of moisture in the gas and improving the steam-water separation efficiency.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0025] A multifunctional steam-water separator includes a tank 1, which has an air inlet 11, an exhaust outlet 12, and a liquid outlet 14. The tank 1 is sealed with a partition 2, which divides the tank 1 into two chambers. The air inlet 11 and the exhaust outlet 12 are located in the two chambers respectively. A central tube 4 is installed through the center of the partition 2, connecting the two chambers. A condensation plate 3 is fixed on both the tank 1 and the central tube 4. The condensation plate 3 is spirally arranged with unequal spacing. When the fluid passes through the condensation plate 3, the flow area changes continuously, which causes the acoustic impedance to change continuously. The noise in the fluid is continuously reflected back, thereby reducing the propagation of noise.

[0026] The gas-water mixture enters the tank 1 through the air inlet 11. When it passes through the condensation plate 3, the water in it condenses on the condensation plate 3, while the dry gas enters from the bottom of the central tube 4 and is finally discharged through the exhaust port 12. The water on the condensation plate 3 settles to the bottom of the tank 1 under its own weight. A float switch 5 is installed on the drain port 14. When the liquid level at the bottom of the tank 1 reaches a certain height, it drives the float switch 5 to open, thereby automatically draining the liquid and preventing the liquid level from being too high and affecting the exhaust of the central tube 4.

[0027] The condensation plate 3 includes two guide plates 31. The guide plates 31 are spirally arranged with unequal spacing. The inner side of the guide plates 31 is in contact with the central tube 4, and the outer side of the guide plates 31 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank 1. The two guide plates 31 are arranged at intervals. The gap formed between the two guide plates 31, the central tube 4, and the tank 1 is the flow passage cavity 32.

[0028] The central tube 4 includes an outer tube sleeve 41 and an inner tube sleeve 42. The outer tube sleeve 41 is connected to the condensation plate 3. The inner tube sleeve 42 and the outer tube sleeve 41 are spaced apart. The gap between the inner tube sleeve 42 and the outer tube sleeve 41 is a flow passage cavity 2 43. The flow passage cavity 2 43 is provided with a flow guide plate 2 44. The flow guide plate 2 44 is spiral. The upper end of the outer tube sleeve 41 is provided with a through hole 9. The through hole 9 connects the flow passage cavity 1 32 and the flow passage cavity 2 43. The bottom end of the flow passage cavity 1 32 is connected to the liquid inlet 7. The bottom end of the flow passage cavity 2 43 is connected to the liquid outlet 8.

[0029] Cooling water is introduced through the inlet 7 and spreads upward from the bottom of the flow passage 32. After filling the flow passage 32, it enters the flow passage 43 through the through hole 9 at the top and flows downward slowly through the guide plate 44. Finally, it is discharged from the outlet 8, thereby maintaining the low temperature on the guide plate 31, making it easy for water to condense on the guide plate 31 and promoting steam-water separation.

[0030] The floating switch 5 includes a float 51, which can be suspended on the liquid at the bottom of the tank 1. A spring 53 is installed in the drain port 14, with the free end of the spring 53 facing the central tube 4. A plug 52 is connected to the free end of the spring 53, which can block the drain port 14. A lead wire 54 is connected between the plug 52 and the float 51. Under normal conditions, the plug 52 is blocked on the drain port 14 by the action of the spring 53, while the float 51 is always on the liquid surface. When the liquid level reaches a certain height, the float 51 drives the plug 52 upward to disengage from the drain port 14, thereby opening the drain port 14 to drain the liquid and prevent excessive liquid accumulation at the bottom from affecting the venting of the central tube 4.

[0031] A top cover 13 is provided on the top of the tank body 1, and a diffuser plate 6 is installed on the top cover 13. The diffuser plate 6 is located at the gas outlet end of the central pipe 4.

[0032] The diffuser plate 6 includes several guide rods 62, which are fixed to the top cover 13. A plate body 61 is slidably sleeved on all the guide rods 62. A second spring 63 is sleeved on the guide rods 62. The two ends of the second spring 63 are fixed to the top cover 13 and the plate body 61, respectively. The plate body 61 is coaxially arranged with the central tube 4. The side of the plate body 61 facing the central tube 4 is conical, with the tip of the cone facing the central tube 4. Dry gas is discharged from the top of the central tube 4 and impacts the tip of the cone body 61. It is then dispersed by the flow of the tip and finally discharged through the exhaust port 12. This avoids direct impact between the airflow and the top cover 13, reducing the noise generated by the impact. The impact force of the airflow on the plate body 61 is ultimately converted into the internal energy of the second spring 63, thereby reducing the vibration of the top cover 13 and the plate body 61 and reducing the generation of vibration noise.

[0033] Specifically, the condensing plate 3 is set as a spiral with unequal spacing. When the gas passes through the condensing plate 3, the change in the flow area causes a change in the acoustic impedance, which causes the noise to be reflected back along the propagation direction, thus reducing the propagation of the noise.

[0034] A diffuser plate 6 is installed at the gas outlet of the central pipe 4. The gas discharged from the central pipe 4 is sprayed onto the diffuser plate 6. The conical plate 61 buffers and changes the direction of gas propagation, reducing the impact of gas on the top cover 13, thereby reducing noise generation.

[0035] The condensation plate 3 is composed of a double-layer guide plate 31, and a flow passage cavity 32 is formed between the two guide plates 31. Cooling water is passed into the flow passage cavity 32, which can maintain the low temperature of the condensation plate 3, thereby promoting the condensation of water in the gas and improving the steam-water separation efficiency.
