AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The current heating method for crude oil storage tanks has a low steam utilization rate, resulting in low heating efficiency and a high risk of condensation accidents.

Method used

A pipeline heating device was designed, comprising a heating tube, an inclined baffle, a heating wire, and a drain pipe. The inclined baffle separates the liquefied water, the heating mechanism maintains the temperature of the heating wire, and the drain pipe discharges the accumulated water, thereby improving the steam utilization rate.

Benefits of technology

It improves steam utilization, prevents condensation accidents, maintains stable internal temperature of heating tubes, and avoids water accumulation that could affect heating performance.

Abstract

The utility model relates to the field and specifically discloses a pipeline heating device, which comprises a heating insertion pipe, a joint flange is installed at the end of the heating insertion pipe, an inclined baffle is installed inside the heating insertion pipe, a heating wire is installed above the inclined baffle inside the heating insertion pipe, a heating mechanism is connected to one end of the heating wire outside the joint flange, a drain pipe is connected to the inside of the joint flange above the heating wire, an inner insertion pipe is installed below the inclined baffle inside the heating insertion pipe, a steam insertion pipe is installed at one end of the inner insertion pipe outside the joint flange, and an air inlet pipe is arranged outside the steam insertion pipe. After steam heat transfer, the inclined baffle can separate the liquefied water, the heating mechanism is used to heat the heating wire, the internal water is heated, the temperature inside the heating insertion pipe is ensured, and thus, when the water level at the upper position continuously rises after the continuous liquefaction of steam, the internal water can be discharged outward through the drain pipe.
