RU2349832C1 - Steam generator - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: power production; heating.

SUBSTANCE: steam generator consists of a drive-operated compressor, throttle and sprayer of the controlled water supply, steam-generating plant and steam discharge manifold. The compressor and its drive are enclosed into the leak-tight housing. The drive is installed in the compressor intake part. The throttle and sprayer are implemented so that they can perform controlled water supply and spraying to the compressor intake. The steam generating plant is designed so that the compressor can be used for creating vacuum conditions in the leak-tight housing at intake part and converting supplied water into water steam. The same conditions may be created by drive cooling and steam compression with steam temperature increase and steam delivery to a consumer.

EFFECT: increased cost-effectiveness of steam generator and simplification of generator design.

Description

The invention relates to a power system and can be used for autonomous supply of thermal energy to industrial and domestic facilities.

Known steam generating device containing a gas turbine engine aggregated with a steam generating device, a device for supplying feed water and steam to the consumer / auth. USSR No. 311088, F22B 27/06. 08/09/1971 / [1].

The disadvantages of the known steam generator are the complexity, cumbersome design and low economic, environmental efficiency in operation.

The closest in technical essence to the present invention is a steam generator containing a compressor with a drive, a steam generating device, a device for the regulated supply of feed water to a steam generating device and steam removal to the consumer / US patent No. 493608. F22B 3/04. January 15, 1985 / [2].

The disadvantages of the closest analogue are the complexity, cumbersome design and low economic efficiency of the device in operation.

The technical problem solved by the invention is to increase the economic efficiency of the steam generator while simplifying its design.

The problem is solved in that a steam generator containing a compressor with a drive, a throttle and a spray of controlled water supply, a steam generating device and a pipe for removing steam to the consumer, the compressor and its drive, for example an electric motor, are made in a sealed housing, and the drive is installed on the compressor inlet. The throttle and atomizer, for example mechanical, are made with the possibility of manually controlled, for example, supply and spraying of water - pure natural water to the compressor inlet. In this case, the steam generating device is made using the compressor's ability to create a vacuum in a sealed enclosure at its inlet, to convert the supplied water into water vapor, including by cooling the drive, compressing the steam with increasing its temperature and removing the steam to the consumer.

The invention is schematically shown in the drawing.

An example of the implementation of the proposed solution,

The steam generator comprises a compressor 1 and its drive 2, for example an electric motor, made in a sealed housing, and the drive is mounted on the compressor inlet 3. The throttle, 4 atomizer 5, for example mechanical, made with the possibility of controlled, for example manually, supply and atomization of water - pure natural water to the compressor inlet. In this case, the steam generating device is made using the compressor's ability to create a vacuum in a sealed enclosure at its inlet, to convert the supplied water into water vapor, including by cooling the drive, compressing the steam with increasing its temperature and removing the steam through the pipe 6 to the consumer 7.

The steam generator operates as follows.

To start the generator, drive 2, for example, an electric motor, of a compressor is turned on. The operation of the compressor 1 at its inlet 3 in a sealed enclosure creates a vacuum. Then, through the throttle 4 controlled by, for example, manually, and the atomizer 5, for example mechanical, water is supplied and sprayed to the suction 3 of compressor 1 — pure natural water. The supplied and sprayed water, due to the vacuum in the sealed inlet 3 of the compressor 1, and also due to the cooling of the drive 2, turns into water vapor. Then, the resulting water vapor with an increase in its temperature, say up to 130 ° С, is compressed by compressor 1, for example, up to 6 atm, and is discharged through the pipe 6 to the consumer, for example, for production needs.

The proposed steam generator in the manufacture of simple and compact. In operation, highly efficient, fire and explosion proof. It can be widely used for autonomous supply of thermal energy to industrial and domestic facilities.
