Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure matching equipment, specifically to a noise-reducing pressure matching device. Background Technology

[0002] The application of jet technology in steam turbine pressure matching devices allows for the direct mixing of high-pressure, high-temperature fluids with low-pressure, low-temperature fluids, offering unique advantages. Firstly, it increases the thermal power generation of the steam turbine; secondly, it transforms non-adjustable steam extraction into adjustable steam extraction. The basic theoretical research on jet technology was largely completed in the 1960s, and its application in industrial practice began gradually, primarily in vacuum systems. Its use as a thermal compressor is a relatively recent development, occurring only in the last 20 years. In steam power systems, jet technology offers unique advantages for thermal compression. Although jet compression involves the direct mixing of high-pressure, high-temperature fluids with low-pressure, low-temperature fluids, increasing irreversible losses, its advantages over mechanical compressors include simpler structure, lower cost, and less maintenance. Furthermore, its thermal energy utilization rate is comparable to, and in some cases, even higher than, that of mechanical compressors. Especially when used in conjunction with heating steam turbines as a pressure matching device, it has achieved considerable efficiency and a promising market prospect.

[0003] The pressure matching device mixes high-pressure and low-pressure steam streams by delivering high-pressure steam to the high-pressure chamber, throttling it through nozzles in the high-pressure chamber, and then delivering it to the low-pressure chamber where it mixes with the low-pressure steam to obtain steam at a suitable pressure, which is then delivered to the turbine unit. The high-pressure and low-pressure steam, after mixing, are transported through a steam delivery pipe. During this process, the high-pressure and low-pressure steam undergo thorough mixing and pressure reduction within the steam delivery pipe to form matched steam. Because the steam delivery pipe of the pressure matching device uses a Venturi tube design (including a contraction section, a throat section, and an expansion section), significant noise is generated during the transport of the high-pressure and low-pressure steam within the pipe. Analysis shows that this noise originates from two parts: the first part comes from the vibration generated during steam mixing, and the second part comes from the vibration of the pressure matching device itself. Excessive noise can cause serious noise pollution. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the existing technology to reduce noise pollution generated during the operation of the pressure matching device and provide a more comfortable and quieter working environment.

The high-pressure steam chamber 1, the pressure matching device housing 2, and the support legs 3 are also described. The outer protective cover is equipped with a heat insulation layer 7, which is made of rock wool or asbestos. Fasteners 8 are provided on the first shell 5 and the second shell 6. Several shock-absorbing mechanisms are provided on the support plate 4. Each shock-absorbing mechanism includes a wing plate 9 on the support plate 4, a pin 10 on the wing plate 9, a washer 11 on the pin 10 above the wing plate 9, a first rubber disc spring 12 on the pin 10 between the washer 11 and the wing plate 9, and a second rubber disc spring 13 on the pin 10 below the wing plate 9.

During installation, the support plate 4 is fixed to a preset position using the corresponding pins 10 in the shock-absorbing mechanisms, and the first rubber disc spring 12 and the second rubber disc spring 13 are both in a preset compressed state under the action of the mounting surface, the corresponding pins 10, and the washer 11. This allows the vibration wave to be transmitted to the corresponding first rubber disc spring 12 and second rubber disc spring 13 in several damping mechanisms when the support plate 4 is subjected to vibration.

[0020] To improve the stability of this product and reduce its vibration, a first clamping hole 14 is provided on the end of the protective cover near the high-pressure steam chamber 1. A high-pressure steam delivery pipe 15 is provided on the high-pressure steam delivery pipe 15. A second clamping hole 16 is provided on the protective cover outside the high-pressure steam delivery pipe 15. A third clamping hole 17 is provided on the end of the protective cover near the pressure matching device housing 2.

[0021] A nozzle 19 is provided on one end of the high-pressure steam chamber 1 near the pressure matching device housing 2. Several nozzles 19 are provided, each with a mixing steam pipe 20.

[0022] Furthermore, to further improve the stability of this product during operation, the protective cover is provided with a connecting groove 25, and a connecting plate is provided on the connecting groove 25. The connecting plate is provided with a fourth clamping hole 26, the number of the fourth clamping holes 26 corresponding to the number of the low-pressure steam pipes 21.

The connecting plate includes a rectangular plate structure composed of a first clamping plate 28 and a second clamping plate 29.

The fourth clamping hole 26 and the corresponding second rubber strip 31 are used to clamp several low-pressure steam pipes 21, which reduces the noise emitted by the protective cover due to the vibration and collision of several low-pressure steam pipes 21, and also reduces the amplitude of the vibration of several low-pressure steam pipes 21.

[0023] Each nozzle 19 is provided with a first valve stem 32, and several first valve stems 32 are provided with connecting discs 33. An end cap 34 is provided on the end of the high-pressure steam chamber 1 away from the pressure matching device housing 2. A second valve stem 35 is provided on the end cap 34 and the connecting disc 33. A second bolt 36 is provided on the end cap 34 and the high-pressure steam chamber 1. A second rubber ring gasket 37 is provided between the end cap 34 and the high-pressure steam chamber 1. The installation of the second rubber ring gasket 37 facilitates the reduction of the gap between the end cap 34 and the high-pressure steam chamber 1. A valve stem guide sleeve is provided on the nozzle 19 and the first valve stem 32. The second valve stem 35 is driven by a drive mechanism; the end cap 34 is provided with a sealing groove 38, which is located outside the second valve stem 35. The central axis of the sealing groove 38 and the central axis of the second valve stem 35 are on the same axis. The second valve stem 35 inside the sealing groove 38 is provided with a sealing packing 39, which is a ring structure made of woven graphite. Installing the sealing packing 39 facilitates reducing the gap between the second valve stem 35 and the end cap 34. A sealing sleeve 40 is provided on the second valve stem 35 outside the sealing packing 39. A second connecting ring 41 is provided on the end of the sealing sleeve 40 away from the sealing packing 39. A third bolt 42 is provided on the second connecting ring 41 and the end cap 34. The number of third bolts 42 is several, and the several third bolts 42 are evenly distributed in a star shape on the outside of the second valve stem 35. Each third bolt 42 on the side of the second connecting ring 41 away from the sealing sleeve 40 is provided with an adjusting nut 43.

[0024] The usage instructions for this product are as follows: Figures 1 to 6 As shown, firstly, the second valve stem 35 is moved, which in turn moves the connecting plate 33, thereby causing several first valve stems 32 to move accordingly, thus adjusting the gap between the first valve stems 32 and the corresponding nozzles 19. Then, high-pressure steam is transported to the high-pressure steam chamber 1 through the high-pressure steam delivery pipe 15. The high-pressure steam is divided into several portions, and each portion of high-pressure steam is transported to the adjacent mixing steam pipe 20 through the corresponding nozzle 19 to form throttling steam. At the same time, several mixing steam pipes 20 receive low-pressure steam from the corresponding low-pressure steam pipe 21. Each portion of low-pressure steam and the corresponding throttling steam are mixed and transported to the steam delivery pipe 22. After being mixed by the steam delivery pipe 22, a first mixed steam is formed and transported to the pressure matching device housing 2 through the end of the steam delivery pipe 22 away from the mixing steam pipe 20. After the several first mixed steams are mixed, a second mixed steam is formed, which is rectified by the rectifier orifice plate 24 and then transported to the downstream pipeline through the end of the pressure matching device housing 2 away from the high-pressure steam chamber 1.

[0025] During this period, the vibration generated by the steam conveying pipe 22 causes nearby parts to vibrate, and finally the vibration is transmitted to the support plate 4. The vibration is buffered by several damping mechanisms on the support plate 4. The first rubber disc spring 12 and the second rubber disc spring 13 in the damping mechanism receive and buffer the vibration waves transmitted from the support plate 4. The noise generated by the steam conveying pipe 22 due to pressure changes is partially absorbed by the insulation layer 7.

[0026] In this embodiment, by installing several of the aforementioned shock-absorbing mechanisms on the support plate 4, the noise generated by vibration during the operation of the pressure matcher is reduced. Meanwhile, the noise generated by pressure changes in the steam transported in the steam conveying pipe 22 is partially absorbed by the heat insulation layer 7. This reduces the noise generated during the operation of the pressure matcher. Furthermore, since the heat insulation layer 7 is made of rock wool or asbestos, it can reduce heat transfer and reduce the heat received by the protective cover, thereby lowering the temperature of the protective cover and improving safety in use.

[0027] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the patent claims of this utility model should be included within the scope of the patent application of this utility model.
