摘要

传统上采用人工洒水的方法来清除风冷式冷凝器的积灰。然而,这种方法在恶劣的条件下是不切实际的,比如60°的坡度、高海拔和高温,在这些条件下,人工操作是不可能的。此外,高压水流会对空气冷却器翅片造成物理损坏和腐蚀。为了解决这些挑战,在这项工作中,设计并验证了一种空气脉冲喷射机器人,用于在恶劣的工业条件下干燥清洁风冷冷凝器中的积尘。该机器人旨在优化清洁效率和速度,同时降低能耗。为了解决陡坡问题,机器人基座上安装了一个基于y形磁路磁性模型的永磁吸收器(减少42%的漏磁并实现60°坡度的稳定性)。为了实现空气脉冲射流的有效干洗,建立了计算流体动力学(CFD)模型,优化了清洗气流速度(峰值风速为65 m/s)。该机器人已被部署到热电厂30281平方米的空气冷却冷凝器中,用于恶劣的工业条件。在不同灰厚、粒径、换热器热阻等条件下进行的试验表明,该机器人的除尘率为95.6%,清洁速度为125.06 m2/min,明显快于人工浇水方式,同时消除了用水量和腐蚀风险。

Development of an Air Pulse Jet Robot for Efficient Dust Removal in Air-Cooled Condensers Under Harsh Industrial Conditions

Development of an Air Pulse Jet Robot for Efficient Dust Removal in Air-Cooled Condensers Under Harsh Industrial Conditions

The manual water-sprinkling method has traditionally been used to clean accumulated dust from air-cooled condensers. However, this method is impractical under severe conditions—such as a 60° slope, high altitude, and high temperatures–where manual operations are impossible. Additionally, high-pressure water flow can cause physical damage and corrosion to the air cooler fins. To address these challenges, in this work, an air pulse jet robot is designed and validated for dry cleaning of accumulated dust in air-cooled condensers under harsh industrial conditions. The robot was designed to optimize cleaning efficiency and speed while reducing energy consumption. To address steep slopes, a permanent magnet absorber based on a proposed magnetic model of a Y-shaped magnetic circuit (reducing leakage flux by 42% and achieving 6 0 slope stability) was installed on the robot base. For effective dry cleaning with air pulse jetting, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was developed to optimize the cleaning airflow velocity (peak velocity 65 m/s). The robot has been deployed to a thermal power plant for a 30,281 m2 air-cooled condenser under severe industrial conditions. Tests conducted under different conditions, including varying ash thicknesses, particle diameters, and heat exchanger thermal resistance, showed that the robot achieved a dust removal rate of 95.6 % and a cleaning rate of 125.06 m2/min, which is significantly faster than the manual watering method while eliminating water consumption and the risk of corrosion.
