Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam turbine technology, and in particular to a device that can improve the heating efficiency of steam turbines. Background Technology
[0002] Steam turbines are the core power equipment in power plants. They use high-temperature, high-pressure steam generated by boilers as the working fluid. The steam impacts the rotor blades, converting the thermal energy of the steam into the mechanical energy of the rotor, which then drives the generator to rotate and cut magnetic field lines, ultimately realizing the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy. Their operating efficiency directly affects the power generation benefits of the power plant and they are widely used in various power generation systems such as thermal power and nuclear power.
[0003] Steam turbine heating efficiency is a key indicator for measuring the degree to which steam turbines convert thermal energy into effective thermal energy and mechanical energy under combined heat and power (CHP) conditions. It is calculated based on the total heat of the high-temperature and high-pressure steam input to the steam turbine, and is the ratio of the sum of the heat supplied to the outside and the heat corresponding to the effective power generation to the total input heat.
[0004] If heating steam contains liquid water droplets, it will reduce the steam enthalpy and reduce the effective heating energy. The water droplets will also erode and wear pipes and heat exchange equipment, and form a water film on the heat exchange surface to hinder heat transfer, further reducing heating efficiency. Traditional filter-type and baffle-type steam separation devices have low separation efficiency and are prone to clogging, making it difficult to maintain stable steam dryness in the long term, thus affecting heating quality.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device that can improve the heating efficiency of steam turbines to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
