Description

Design method and device for volute hydraulic of slurry preheater feeding pump and electronic equipment TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fluid machinery, in particular to a design method and device for volute hydraulic of slurry preheater feeding pump and electronic equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] The slurry preheater is a device for storing and heating high-pressure slurry. The slurry is a three-phase mixture of solid, liquid and gas, with a solid content of generally 35% to 40%, and the rest is steam and acid-containing solution, with a PH of 2 to 4. The preheater is a sealed cylindrical tank, which is under pressure. As the medium temperature rises from 105°C to 165°C, the pressure in the tank rises from 0.8 MPa to 2.2 MPa.

[0003] The slurry preheater feeding pump is used for slurry transportation. When the slurry is sucked into the pump cavity and transported in the volute, the solid particles cause severe wear to the volute. The volute of the slurry preheater feeding pump is generally made of high-hardness wear-resistant material, which is brittle and has relatively poor casting performance. The more complex the structure, the lower the yield.

[0004] Due to the complex structure of the volute of the slurry preheater feeding pump, the existing technical solutions do not disclose how to design the volute parameters of the slurry preheater feeding pump, resulting in a low one-time casting qualification rate of the volute.
