Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of circulating water pump technology and relates to an optimized operation device for power plant circulating water pumps. Background Technology

[0002] The output of auxiliary equipment in thermal power plants varies with the generator load, and the grid load is constantly changing. Therefore, the generator output power and the output of auxiliary equipment must be adjusted accordingly. As one of the main auxiliary equipment in thermal power plants, the output of circulating water pumps should vary with the seasons and unit load, based on the requirements of maintaining unit vacuum and regulating circulating water flow. However, current power plant circulating water pump optimization devices on the market operate at a fixed speed using the industrial frequency, and cannot dynamically adjust the flow rate according to unit load and seasonal temperature differences (such as changes in condenser cooling water inlet temperature), resulting in significant energy waste during low-load periods. Therefore, to solve the above problems, we need to design a power plant circulating water pump optimization device. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a power plant circulating water pump optimization device that can dynamically adjust the flow rate.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses an optimized operation device for power plant circulating water pumps, including a base plate. A variable frequency water pump and a fixed frequency water pump are fixedly connected to the base plate. A connecting pipe is connected to the variable frequency water pump, and the end of the connecting pipe away from the variable frequency water pump is connected to the fixed frequency water pump. A filter pipe is connected to the middle of the connecting pipe, and an inlet pipe is connected to the end of the filter pipe away from the connecting pipe. A confluence pipe is connected to the variable frequency water pump and is connected to the fixed frequency water pump. A check valve is installed on the confluence pipe.

[0005] Furthermore, water outlet pipes are provided on both sides of the confluence pipe, one of which is fixedly connected to the variable frequency water pump, and the other is fixedly connected to the power frequency water pump. A check plate is rotatably connected to the check valve.

[0006] Furthermore, flow sensors are installed on both sides of the connecting pipe, and a controller is installed on the power frequency water pump.

[0007] Furthermore, a housing is fixedly connected to the base plate, a frequency converter is connected inside the housing, a power supply cable is installed on the frequency converter, and a switch is connected to the power supply cable.

[0008] Furthermore, the variable frequency water pump is equipped with a connection box, and a power supply connection line is provided in the connection box, which is connected to the variable frequency controller.

[0009] Furthermore, the filter tube is provided with a placement groove, the placement groove is provided with a guide groove, the two sides of the placement groove are provided with fixing grooves, the filter tube is movably connected with a movable seat, and the filter tube is provided with a ring clamp.

[0010] Furthermore, a filter element is fixedly connected to the movable seat, filter screens are connected to both sides of the filter element, guide plates are connected to both sides of the movable seat, and grooves are provided on the movable seat.

[0011] Furthermore, a sliding rod is fixedly connected to the groove, a spring is fixedly connected to the groove, a wedge is fixedly connected to the spring, a pull plate is fixedly connected to the wedge, and the wedge is slidably connected to the sliding rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a screw is fixedly connected to the ring, a positioning nut is threaded onto the screw, and a movable groove is provided on the ring.

[0013] Furthermore, both the variable frequency water pump and the fixed frequency water pump are fixedly connected to a heat dissipation frame, the heat dissipation frame is provided with a connecting plate, the connecting plate is fixedly connected to a motor, and the motor is fixedly connected to a rotating fan.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: In practical operation, the power plant circulating water pump optimization device described in this utility model can operate in four modes: single variable frequency pump, single fixed frequency pump, parallel operation of one fixed frequency pump and one variable frequency pump, and parallel operation of two fixed frequency pumps, through the use of variable frequency pumps and fixed frequency pumps. This allows the device to dynamically adjust the flow rate according to the unit load and seasonal temperature differences, facilitating adjustments based on the season and unit load, and simplifying the device's operation. Furthermore, when the variable frequency pump and fixed frequency pump are pumping water, the water can move through the inlet pipe to the filter pipe, where impurities are adsorbed. After the impurities are adsorbed, the water enters the variable frequency pump and fixed frequency pump through the connecting pipe. By setting the pump power, the device can direct the water flow to the confluence pipe. Moreover, when the speed of the variable frequency pump decreases, a check valve can prevent backflow of water from the variable frequency pump, thus avoiding disruption to the normal operation of the device.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The power plant circulating water pump optimization operation device of this utility model includes a base plate 1. A variable frequency water pump 2 and a fixed frequency water pump 3 are fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A connecting pipe 4 is connected to the variable frequency water pump 2. The end of the connecting pipe 4 away from the variable frequency water pump 2 is connected to the fixed frequency water pump 3. A filter pipe 5 is connected to the middle of the connecting pipe 4. A water inlet pipe 6 is connected to the end of the filter pipe 5 away from the connecting pipe 4. A confluence pipe 9 is connected to the variable frequency water pump 2. The end of the confluence pipe 9 away from the variable frequency water pump 2 is connected to the fixed frequency water pump 3. A check valve 8 is provided on the confluence pipe 9.

[0026] Specifically, by connecting the variable frequency pump 2 and the fixed frequency pump 3 in parallel, the device can operate in various modes, such as single variable frequency operation, single fixed frequency operation, or a combination of both. This facilitates the device's ability to dynamically adjust the flow rate based on unit load and seasonal temperature differences, allowing for adjustments based on seasons and unit load, thus simplifying operation. Furthermore, when the variable frequency pump 2 and the fixed frequency pump 3 are pumping water simultaneously, the water can move through the inlet pipe 6 to the filter pipe 5, where impurities are adsorbed. After the impurities are adsorbed, the water flows through the connecting pipe 4 into the variable frequency pump 2 and the fixed frequency pump 3. By setting the pump power, the device can direct the water flow to the confluence pipe 9. Additionally, when the speed of the variable frequency pump 2 decreases, the check valve 8 prevents backflow of water from the variable frequency pump 2, thus avoiding disruption to the normal operation of the device.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-3 The confluence pipe 9 has two outlet pipes 7 connected to its end. One outlet pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the variable frequency water pump 2, and the other outlet pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the fixed frequency water pump 3. A check plate 11 is rotatably connected to the check valve 8. Flow sensors 10 are installed on both sides of the connecting pipe 4, and a controller 12 is installed on the fixed frequency water pump 3. A housing 14 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1, and a variable frequency controller 15 is fixedly connected to the housing 14. A power supply cable 16 is installed on the variable frequency controller 15, and a switch 17 is connected to the power supply cable 16. A connection box 13 is installed on the variable frequency water pump 2, and a power supply connection line 18 is installed in the connection box 13, which is connected to the variable frequency controller 15. Heat dissipation frames 19 are fixedly connected to both the variable frequency water pump 2 and the fixed frequency water pump 3. A connection plate 20 is installed in the heat dissipation frame 19, and a motor 21 is fixedly connected to the connection plate 20. A rotating fan 22 is fixedly connected to the motor 21.

[0028] Specifically, by connecting the variable frequency pump 2 and the fixed frequency pump 3 in parallel, when circulating water is discharged from the pumps, the water discharged from the pumps will move through the outlet pipe 7 to the check valve 8, and then flow through the check plate 11 into the confluence pipe 9. Furthermore, when the device operates with one fixed frequency pump and one variable frequency pump in parallel, when the speed of the variable frequency pump 2 decreases, its flow rate decreases, while the flow rate of the fixed frequency pump 3 increases due to its fixed speed. When the speed of the variable frequency pump 2 decreases to a certain value, its output flow rate becomes zero. At this point, the parallel operation is essentially equivalent to one pump operating at a time. The fixed-frequency water pump 3 operates independently. If the speed of the variable-frequency water pump 2 is further reduced, the check valve 8 and check plate 11 can prevent some of the flow from the fixed-frequency water pump 3 from flowing back into the variable-frequency water pump 2, thus affecting the normal operation of the device. Furthermore, the speed of the fixed-frequency water pump 3 can be controlled by the controller 12, the variable-frequency water pump 2 can be controlled by the variable-frequency controller 15, and the flow sensor 10 can detect the flow rate of the water pump group when water enters the variable-frequency water pump 2 and the fixed-frequency water pump 3. When the variable-frequency water pump 2 and the fixed-frequency water pump 3 are working, the rotating fan 22 can be rotated by the motor 21 to cool the water pump group.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 The filter tube 5 is provided with a placement groove 32, a guide groove 33, and fixing grooves 34 on both sides of the placement groove 32. A movable seat 23 is movably connected to the filter tube 5, and a ring clamp 35 is provided on the filter tube 5. A screw 36 is fixedly connected to the ring clamp 35, and a positioning nut 37 is threadedly connected to the screw 36. A movable groove 38 is provided on the ring clamp 35.

[0030] Specifically, when installing the filter tube 5, the movable seat 23 is placed into the placement groove 32, and the ring 35 is moved to the gap in the placement groove 32. By rotating the positioning nut 37, it moves on the screw 36, causing the ring 35 to tighten, thereby fixing the movable seat 23 in the placement groove 32. At the same time, since the contact surface between the movable seat 23 and the placement groove 32 is made of rubber, when the ring 35 causes the movable seat 23 to tighten, leakage of water when passing through the filter tube 5 can be avoided.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-6 A filter element 24 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 23. Filter screens 25 are fixedly connected to both sides of the filter element 24. Guide plates 26 are fixedly connected to both sides of the movable seat 23. A groove 31 is provided on the movable seat 23. A slide rod 27 is fixedly connected to the groove 31. A spring 28 is fixedly connected to the groove 31. A wedge block 29 is connected to the spring 28. A pull plate 30 is fixedly connected to the wedge block 29. The wedge block 29 is slidably connected to the slide rod 27.

[0032] Specifically, when water enters the filter pipe 5 through the inlet pipe 6, larger particles in the water can be filtered out by the filter screen 25. Simultaneously, the filter element 24, being a polypropylene filter element, further removes suspended solids, rust, and other impurities, improving the filtration effect and preventing a large amount of impurities from accumulating in the circulating cooling water, which would reduce its cooling efficiency. Furthermore, cooling water filled with impurities can easily clog the transport pipes. When it is necessary to remove the filter element 24, the ring clamp 35 is opened and moved along the filter pipe 5 to allow it to... Leave the placement groove 32 area and pull the pull plate 30 to retract the wedge 29, causing the wedge 29 to leave the fixed groove 34. This allows the movable seat 23 to be removed, and the filter element 24 to be cleaned and replaced. Then, place the cleaned or new movable seat 23 and filter element 24 into the placement groove 32. During placement, insert the guide plate 26 into the guide groove 33 to insert the movable seat 23 into the filter tube 5, and fix the wedge 29 into the fixed groove 34 to secure the movable seat 23, facilitating filtration when water passes through the filter tube 5.

[0033] Other embodiments of this utility model will readily conceive of by those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and disclosure thereof. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this utility model that follow the general principles of this utility model and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The specification and embodiments are to be considered exemplary only, and the true scope and spirit of this utility model are indicated by the following claims.

[0034] It should be understood that this invention is not limited to the precise structure described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The scope of this invention is limited only by the appended claims.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the present utility model. Any simple modifications, alterations, or equivalent structural changes made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
