Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to a de-cooling and de-pressure reducing device with adjustment function. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production, steam is an important heat energy carrier. Its pressure and temperature parameters directly affect the stability of the process, equipment life and energy efficiency. For example, in power plants, after high-temperature and high-pressure steam drives the steam turbine to do work, the steam parameters need to be adjusted to the low-pressure and low-temperature state required by the heating network or process equipment through a desuperheating and pressure reducing device.
[0003] Traditional desuperheating and pressure reducing devices typically employ fixed orifice plates and direct mixing desuperheating structures, regulating steam pressure through mechanical valve openings and relying on external cooling water for temperature control. However, this design has significant drawbacks in terms of dynamic regulation performance and energy efficiency.
[0004] Firstly, the fixed throttling structure results in low pressure regulation accuracy, especially when the load fluctuates, which can easily lead to overpressure or underpressure, potentially causing pipeline vibration or thermal stress damage to equipment.
[0005] Secondly, the direct mixing desuperheating method is difficult to achieve dynamic matching between cooling water volume and steam flow. Excessive desuperheating water often leads to deterioration of steam quality (such as excessive water content), or insufficient desuperheating water can cause local overheating, threatening the safe operation of the equipment.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-2A de-temperature and pressure reducing device with regulating function includes a steam conveying pipe I1 for receiving high-temperature and high-pressure steam, a hot water exchange tank 2 for de-temperature and pressure reducing the steam, and a steam conveying pipe II3 for outputting low-temperature and low-pressure steam. The steam conveying pipes I1 and II3 can be made of seamless steel pipes made of high-temperature alloy steel, with an outer insulation layer to ensure stability and reliability. To facilitate connection with external equipment, connecting flanges 4 are installed at the inlet of the steam conveying pipe I1 and the outlet of the steam conveying pipe II3. The hot water exchange tank 2 is used to hold cooling water for heat exchange with the high-temperature and high-pressure steam to achieve de-temperature and pressure reducing treatment. Preferably, the hot water exchange tank 2 is rectangular in shape.
[0025] To enable heat exchange between the input high-temperature, high-pressure steam and the cooling water in the heat exchange tank 2, at least two transversely penetrating steam heat exchange pipes 5 are fixedly connected between the output port of steam delivery pipe I1 and the input port of steam delivery pipe II3. This provides multiple channels for steam delivery, allowing for steam input adjustment through different numbers of switches as needed. Preferably, the diameter of the steam heat exchange pipes 5 is the same as the diameter of the steam delivery pipe I1, so that when at least two steam heat exchange pipes 5 are opened, the steam pressure can be reduced. Preferably, there are 3-5 steam heat exchange pipes 5.
[0026] To improve heat exchange efficiency, heat exchange fins 18 are fixedly installed on the steam heat exchange pipes 5 inside the hot water tank 2. To enable on / off control of the steam conveying pipe I1, steam heat exchange control valves 6 are installed on the steam heat exchange pipes 5 on the side close to the steam conveying pipe I1.
[0027] The heat exchange tank 2 is vertically arranged. A cooling water inlet pipe 9 is connected to the bottom of the heat exchange tank 2, and a cooling water outlet pipe 12 is connected to the top of the heat exchange tank 2. Cooling water is used to input and output into the heat exchange tank 2 to reduce the temperature and pressure of the steam through heat exchange. Preferably, a booster pump 11 and a cooling water inlet regulating valve 10 are installed on the cooling water inlet pipe 9, and a cooling water outlet regulating valve 13 is installed on the cooling water outlet pipe 12. This allows the flow rate of the cooling water to be adjusted as needed through the booster pump 11, the cooling water inlet regulating valve 10, and the cooling water outlet regulating valve 13, which helps to improve the heat exchange efficiency.
[0028] A stirring shaft 14 is rotatably installed in the middle of the bottom of the hot water exchange tank 2. The top of the stirring shaft 14 is located inside the hot water exchange tank 2 and a stirring paddle 15 is fixedly installed thereon. The bottom of the stirring shaft 14 is located outside the hot water exchange tank 2. A drive device 16 is also installed on the hot water exchange tank 2 to drive the stirring shaft 14 and the stirring paddle 15 to perform stirring operations inside the hot water exchange tank 2, so as to realize the stirring operation of cooling water and help to further improve heat exchange efficiency. Preferably, the drive device 16 is a geared motor. The motor shaft of the geared motor is connected to the stirring shaft 14 through a transmission gear. A rotary dynamic seal is installed at the junction of the stirring shaft 14 and the hot water exchange tank 2.
[0029] In order to better achieve the mixing of cooling water by the stirring shaft 14 and the stirring paddle 15, so that the newly input cooling water can be mixed quickly, several water inlet pipes 17 connected to the cooling water input pipe 9 are installed on the bottom wall of the heat exchange tank 2 around the stirring shaft 14. A one-way valve for water inlet is installed on the water inlet pipe 17.
[0030] In actual use, a pressure gauge 8 and a temperature instrument 7 are also installed on the steam transmission pipeline II3 to monitor the pressure and temperature of the output steam in real time, so as to make adjustments according to the monitoring situation and actual needs, such as opening more steam heat exchange pipelines 5, opening the cooling water input regulating valve 10 and the cooling water output regulating valve 13 to increase the flow rate of cooling water, or turning on the drive device 16 to achieve the stirring treatment of cooling water.
[0031] The actual working process of the de-icing and pressure-reducing device with adjustable function provided in this application is as follows:
[0032] 1. First, connect the steam transmission pipeline I1 to the external steam release equipment (such as a steam turbine) through the connecting flange 4, connect the steam transmission pipeline II3 to the external steam application equipment (such as a heating network), and then input cooling water into the heat exchange tank 2 through the cooling water input pipeline 9;
[0033] 2. Turn on the steam input and first open a steam heat exchange pipe 5. The steam is input from the steam delivery pipe I1, and after exchanging heat with the cooling water in the hot water tank 2 through the steam heat exchange pipe 5, the steam is de-heated and de-pressurized, and then output from the steam delivery pipe II3.
[0034] 3. Real-time monitoring of the temperature and pressure of the output steam;
[0035] 4. When it is necessary to further reduce the temperature and pressure of the output steam, more steam heat exchange pipes 5 can be opened to reduce the input pressure of steam. At the same time, by cooperating with the cooling water input pipe 9 and the cooling water output pipe 12, the flow rate of cooling water in the heat exchange tank 2 can be accelerated, and the drive device 16 can be turned on to drive the stirring shaft 14 to drive the stirring paddle 15 to stir the cooling water, thereby accelerating the heat exchange efficiency between the cooling water and the steam and further de-heating and de-pressurizing the steam so that the temperature and pressure of the output steam meet the requirements.
