Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of converter cooling technology, specifically to a water-cooling mechanism for converters. Background Technology

[0002] Converter steelmaking is a process that uses molten iron, scrap steel, and ferroalloys as the main raw materials. It does not rely on external energy sources but generates heat through the physical heat of the molten iron itself and the chemical reactions between the components of the molten iron. Converters are classified as acidic or alkaline based on the refractory materials they use, as well as top-blown, bottom-blown, and side-blown based on the location where the gas is blown into the furnace. They are also classified as air converters or oxygen converters based on the type of gas used.

[0003] Converters generate extremely high temperatures during steelmaking. To ensure normal operation and extend the service life of the equipment, key components of the converter need to be cooled. Existing water cooling systems have low water recycling rates, and the circulating water contains a large amount of heat energy after cooling. If this heat energy is not recovered and reused, direct discharge or waste leads to a waste of energy resources. Especially in the high-temperature metallurgical industry, where energy costs are high, such waste increases production costs and reduces economic efficiency. To address these issues, a water cooling mechanism for converters is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a water-cooling mechanism for converters. This solves the problem that current converters generate extremely high temperatures during steelmaking. To ensure normal operation and extend the service life of the equipment, cooling of critical components is necessary. However, existing water-cooling systems have low water recycling rates, and the circulating water contains a large amount of heat energy after cooling. If this heat energy is not recovered and reused, direct discharge or waste leads to a waste of energy resources. Especially in the high-temperature metallurgical industry, where energy costs are high, such waste increases production costs and reduces economic efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a converter water cooling mechanism, including a heat dissipation tower, a heat exchange component fixedly installed on the upper left side of the heat dissipation tower, a partition plate fixedly connected to the upper part of the heat dissipation tower, a dispersion groove formed above the partition plate inside the heat dissipation tower, a water storage tank formed below the partition plate inside the heat dissipation tower, a plurality of water leakage holes penetrating the upper surface of the partition plate, a plurality of dispersion plates fixedly connected below the water leakage holes inside the heat dissipation tower, and at least three sets of cooling fans fixedly connected to the front side of the heat dissipation tower at the position of the dispersion plates.

[0006] Preferably, two rotating shafts are rotatably connected inside the heat dissipation tower at the location of the water storage tank. Several tumbling blades are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each of the two rotating shafts. A servo motor that drives the rotating shafts to rotate is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the heat dissipation tower.

[0007] Preferably, a water supply pipe is fixedly connected to the lower left side of the heat dissipation tower, and a water injection pipe is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper surface of the heat dissipation tower.

[0008] Preferably, the heat exchange assembly includes a heat exchange box, which is fixedly connected to the left side of the upper surface of the heat exchange tower. A cold water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the heat exchange box, and a hot water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the heat exchange box.

[0009] Preferably, a water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the heat exchange box, a guide pipe is fixedly connected to the right side of the water outlet pipe, the end of the guide pipe is connected to the inside of the dispersion tank, and a water inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the lower left side of the heat exchange box.

[0010] Preferably, at least three second connecting pipes are fixedly connected to the right side of the water inlet pipe inside the heat exchange box, and at least three first connecting pipes are fixedly connected to the left side of the water outlet pipe inside the heat exchange box.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of heat exchange tubes are fixedly connected between the first connecting tube and the second connecting tube.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: The heat exchange component of this invention achieves efficient heat exchange between cooling water and high-temperature media through multiple sets of heat exchange tubes. The recovered heat energy can be reused, reducing energy waste and production costs. Simultaneously, the heat dissipation tower further cools the cooling water and improves water circulation efficiency through a combination of a dispersion tank, a water storage tank, and a cooling fan. The drainage holes and dispersion plates in the dispersion tank evenly disperse the hot water into fine streams, increasing the contact area with air. Combined with forced convection by the cooling fan, this accelerates heat dissipation. The agitating blades in the water storage tank stir the water flow, preventing water temperature stratification and ensuring uniform cooling water temperature, thus improving the stability of the cooling system. The integrated design of the heat exchange component and the heat dissipation tower occupies little space and is easy to install. The cooling fan, servo motor, and other components are rationally laid out and adopt a modular design, allowing for quick disassembly and replacement during maintenance, reducing downtime.

[0015] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art.

[0016] Reference Figure 1-4 As shown, a converter water cooling mechanism includes a heat exchange tower 1. A heat exchange component 13 is fixedly installed on the upper left side of the heat exchange tower 1. A partition plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the heat exchange tower 1. A dispersion groove 4 is formed above the partition plate 2 inside the heat exchange tower 1, and a water storage tank 6 is formed below the partition plate 2 inside the heat exchange tower 1. Several drainage holes 3 are opened through the upper surface of the partition plate 2. Several dispersion plates 5 are fixedly connected to the heat exchange tower 1 below the drainage holes 3. The dispersion plates 5 are arranged at an angle and staggered to each other, which can further disperse the dripping hot water to form a thin water film or water droplets, greatly increasing the contact area between the hot water and the air, accelerating the evaporation and conduction of heat, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. At the same time, the dispersion plates 5 can also play a certain buffering role, reducing the impact force when the hot water falls and protecting the heat dissipation. The internal structure of the heat dissipation tower 1 includes at least three sets of cooling fans 12 fixedly connected to the front side of the heat dissipation tower 1 at the position of the dispersion plate 5. The cooling fans 12 can automatically start and stop or adjust their speed according to the feedback of the water temperature sensor (not shown in the figure, but those skilled in the art can understand it) to optimize the heat dissipation efficiency. The stirring speed of the tumbling blades 10 can also be adjusted by the servo motor 11 to adapt to the cooling requirements under different heat loads. The partition plate 2 rationally divides the internal space of the heat dissipation tower 1 into a dispersion tank 4 and a water storage tank 6, realizing the effective separation of hot water and cooled water, avoiding water mixing and interference, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the water cooling process. The dispersion tank 4 provides space for the initial dispersion and heat dissipation of hot water, while the water storage tank 6 is used to collect cooled water for subsequent recycling.

[0017] Furthermore, inside the heat dissipation tower 1, two rotating shafts 9 are rotatably connected at the location of the water storage tank 6. Several agitating blades 10 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of both rotating shafts 9. A servo motor 11 that drives the rotating shafts 9 to rotate is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the heat dissipation tower 1. During the cooling process, the water heat dissipation rate may vary at different locations, which can easily lead to uneven water temperature. The stirring action of the agitating blades 10 can make the water fully mixed, ensuring that the water temperature in the water storage tank 6 is uniform, thereby improving the quality of the cooling water and the cooling effect.

[0018] Furthermore, a water supply pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the lower left side of the heat dissipation tower 1, and a water filling pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the right side of the upper surface of the heat dissipation tower 1. The water supply pipe 7 is responsible for transporting the cooled water back to the converter cooling system, realizing the recycling of water resources and reducing production costs. The water filling pipe 8 is used to replenish water to the water storage tank 6 when the system water volume is insufficient, ensuring the normal operation of the water cooling system and avoiding equipment failure and production interruption due to water shortage.

[0019] Furthermore, the heat exchange assembly 13 includes a heat exchange box 1301, which is fixedly connected to the left side of the upper surface of the heat exchange tower 1. A cold water inlet pipe 1302 is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the heat exchange box 1301, and a hot water outlet pipe 1303 is fixedly connected to the upper left side of the heat exchange box 1301.

[0020] Furthermore, a water outlet pipe 1304 is fixedly connected to the upper right side of the heat exchange box 1301, and a guide pipe 1309 is fixedly connected to the right side of the water outlet pipe 1304. The end of the guide pipe 1309 is connected to the interior of the dispersion tank 4, and a water inlet pipe 1306 is fixedly connected to the lower left side of the heat exchange box 1301.

[0021] Furthermore, at least three second connecting pipes 1307 are fixedly connected to the right side of the inlet pipe 1306 inside the heat exchange box 1301, and at least three first connecting pipes 1305 are fixedly connected to the left side of the outlet pipe 1304 inside the heat exchange box 1301. The first connecting pipes 1305 and the second connecting pipes 1307 are respectively used to connect the outlet pipe 1304 and the inlet pipe 1306 to the heat exchange pipe 1308. The layout is reasonable and can effectively guide the water flow direction, ensure the smooth flow of hot and cold water in the heat exchange box 1301, and improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0022] Furthermore, several heat exchange tubes 1308 are fixedly connected between the first connecting pipe 1305 and the second connecting pipe 1307. The design of multiple heat exchange tubes 1308 greatly increases the contact area between hot water and cold water, improving heat exchange efficiency. When hot water flows in the heat exchange tubes 1308, it comes into full contact with the cold water inside the heat exchange box 1301, quickly releasing heat and achieving efficient cooling. At the same time, the material and structure of the heat exchange tubes 1308 can withstand high temperature and high pressure, ensuring the stability and reliability of the heat exchange process.

[0023] Working principle: First, connect all the pipes. Then, inject cold water into the heat exchange box 1301 through the cold water inlet pipe 1302. The high-temperature water generated by the converter cooling enters the heat exchange box 1301 through the water inlet pipe 1306, and is distributed to multiple heat exchange tubes 1308 through the second connecting pipe 1307. When flowing in the heat exchange tubes 1308, it comes into contact with the cold water inside the heat exchange box 1301 and releases heat. The high-temperature water that has completed the heat exchange flows from the first connecting pipe 1305 and the water outlet pipe 1304 into the dispersion tank 4 of the heat dissipation tower 1 through the guide pipe 1309. The cold water heated inside the heat exchange box 1301 flows out through the hot water outlet pipe 1303 and then enters the external pipes. The hot water is supplied to the living area for bathing or drinking. The water leakage holes 3 in the dispersion tank 4 allow hot water to drip evenly onto the dispersion plate 5, forming a thin water film or droplets, increasing the contact area with the air. The cooling fan 12 starts, forcing air to flow in from the front of the cooling tower 1, creating a counter-current with the falling hot water, accelerating heat evaporation and conduction, and lowering the water temperature. The cooled water flows to the storage tank 6. The servo motor 11 drives the rotating shaft 9 to drive the agitator blades 10 to stir the water, preventing water temperature stratification and ensuring uniform water temperature in the storage tank 6. The cooled water is then transported back to the converter cooling system through the water pipe 7 to complete the cycle. When the system water volume is insufficient, water can be added to the storage tank 6 through the water filling pipe 8.
