Description

Technical field

[0001] The present utility model relates to the area of ​​heat dissipation of an SVG reactive power compensation cabinet for subways and in particular to a water cooling cabinet and a water cooling system. State of the art

[0002] In subway traction power supply systems, reactive power causes a significant voltage drop within the system, including the traction transformer and the contact network, leading to a voltage reduction at the end of the traction network. When the subway traction system is in operation, the reactive power changes rapidly, and the voltage fluctuates considerably, seriously impacting the power quality of the public grid and posing potential safety risks. To address these issues, the SVG reactive power compensation cabinet is used to compensate for the line's reactive power. During operation, the SVG reactive power compensation cabinet generates a substantial amount of heat. In a relatively enclosed environment, water cooling is typically employed for heat dissipation. To ensure the stable operation of the water-cooled heat dissipation device, the cooling medium must be replenished regularly.

[0003] Currently, the additional cooling medium for the water-cooled heat dissipation device is liquid water, which is replenished directly by the operator from an external water source. The hardness of the replenished liquid water is relatively high. During operation of the water-cooled heat dissipation device, flakes of water accumulate on the inner wall of the circulation pipe, slowing the flow of liquid water and, in severe cases, potentially leading to blockage of the circulation line and failure of the water-cooled heat dissipation device. Summary of the utility model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a water cooling cabinet and a water cooling system by overcoming the shortcomings of the prior art in the supply of liquid water with a higher hardness to an SVG reactive power compensation cabinet.

[0006] According to the water cooling cabinet of the present utility model, a pump is used to drive the flow of cooling water in a water cooling line, allowing the cooling water to flow continuously from one end of the water cooling line to the other. A water refill tank replenishes the cooling water in the water cooling line. A water refill pump is located on the water refill line. The water refill pump pumps the cooling water from the water refill tank into the water cooling line to replenish the fluid. An ion exchange tank is located downstream of the water refill pump, and the ion exchange tank is used to remove hardness ions from the cooling water, thus softening the cooling water entering the water cooling line to prevent the formation of sludge. Both the water refill tank and the pump are located in the cabinet, which facilitates centralized maintenance for the operators.

[0007] Preferably, the water cooling line comprises a liquid inlet pipe section, a liquid outlet pipe section, and a plurality of water cooling branches; one end of the water cooling branches is connected to the liquid inlet pipe section, and the other end is connected to the liquid outlet pipe section; each of the water cooling branches is arranged with the pump; and the water refill line is connected to the liquid inlet pipe section.

[0008] Between the liquid inlet pipe section and the liquid outlet pipe section, a multitude of water cooling branches are arranged, each with its own pump.

[0010] The ends of the liquid inlet and outlet pipe sections each include flanges, and the water cooling line can be quickly connected to the piping via these flanges. The connection between the liquid inlet and outlet pipe sections is located outside the cabinet body for ease of operation.

[0014] The base of the water refill tank is supported by the bracket on a base plate located away from the cabinet body, creating a gap between the tank and the base plate. The water refill line can be routed between the tank and the base plate, simplifying its installation at the bottom of the tank. This gap between the tank and the base plate provides convenient access for maintenance. The support column secures the water refill line, preventing deformation and loosening. A clamping groove is located at the top of the support column.By adjusting and connecting the clamping groove to the outer wall of the water refill pipe, the water refill pipe can be further clamped and fixed, thereby improving the stability of the water refill pipe.

The pressure gauge can monitor the pressure change in the water cooling line.

[0017] Preferably the cabinet body is a rectangular cabinet body, and one side surface of the cabinet body is provided with a maintenance opening that is connected to the receiving space; and the maintenance opening is covered with a cover plate that is hinged to the cabinet body.

[0018] The integrated maintenance opening makes it easy for the operator to service the components inside the cabinet. A cover plate conceals the access opening and protects the components within the cabinet body. The cover plate is hinged to the cabinet body for easy opening and closing.

This allows a reactive compensation cabinet SVG in the subway to dissipate heat in a timely manner, ensuring the normal operation of the subway. Long-term storage of the cooling water in the water refill tank allows for rapid replenishment of the cooling water in the water cooling line, thus reducing the workload for operators.

[0021] Preferably, the water refill line comprises a water refill branch that is connected to the circulation line; the water refill branch is located downstream of the ion exchange tank in a mean circulation direction of the water refill line.

[0022] By providing the water refill branch, the water refill tank simultaneously replenishes the cooling water in the water cooling line and the circulation line.
