The present invention relates to the technical field of heating furnace structures, in particular to a modular structure wall of a high-temperature heating furnace. The present invention further provides an installation method of the modular wall.
At present, the furnace wall materials of the ethylene cracking furnace are mostly made of ceramic fiber cotton, and the furnace walls of high-temperature heating furnaces such as steel heating furnaces and ceramic heating furnaces are mostly made of refractory bricks and high-temperature resistant castable.
The walls made of ceramic fiber cotton, refractory bricks and high-temperature resistant castable of high-temperature heating furnaces have the following common disadvantages:
1) Low thermal radiation coefficient, resulting in low efficiency of radiation heat transfer on furnace inner walls; and
2) Under the long-term action of the high-temperature heat flow environment in the furnaces, crystallization and pulverization occur from the outside to the inside, which shortens the service life of the furnace walls.
Compared with ceramic fiber cotton furnace walls, furnace walls made of refractory bricks and high-temperature resistant castable further have the following disadvantages:
1) The furnace wall thickness needs to be increased by about 50% to achieve the same thermal insulation effect as that of the ceramic fiber-cotton furnace wall due to the disadvantages of the thermal insulation performance and the poor thermal insulation effect. The furnace floor area is increased, and the construction requirement is high and the labor consumption is high.
2) The total size of the furnace walls is increased due to the thickness of the furnace walls is increased, resulting in a high heat capacity of the furnace walls. Therefore, the process of igniting and heating up, and shutting down and cooling down the furnaces not only wastes heat energy but also takes a long time, which hinders the normal production of the furnaces.
3) After a certain years of service, cracks appear, and the high-temperature flame in the furnace bursts out of the cracks, resulting in a waste of heat.
A traditional repair method for furnace walls made of refractory bricks and high-temperature resistant castable is to remove damaged parts and use new bricks or low-cement castable to cast the dismantled parts as a whole.
The patent with publication number CN201215439Y discloses Wall repairing structure of walking beam heating furnace, for the disclosed structure, although making a big step forward as compared with the traditional repair method, this repair method only increases the repair speed without changing the nature of the furnace walls, that is, without contributing to prolonging the service life of the furnace walls or improving the efficiency of radiation heat transfer on the furnace inner walls.
The patent with publication number CN205066456U discloses Novel anti-burn-through refractory heat-insulating furnace wall for forging furnace, and provides a novel anti-burn-through refractory heat-insulating furnace wall for forging furnace which can adjust the thickness freely, reduce the types of refractory bricks required, lower construction difficulty and labor costs, avoid burn through of heat insulation layers, and ensure the low temperature of steel plates outside the furnace. Specifically, the cross section of the furnace wall from the outside to the inside sequentially includes “three fiber blanket insulation layers, two machine-made fiberboard insulation layers, a diatomaceous earth brick insulation layer, two clay brick refractory layers and a castable refractory layer which are arranged in sequence on the inner side of a steel plate layer”. Although the invention described in the document has a certain contribution to the prevention of burn through of the furnace walls, since the castable refractory layer still faces the high temperature environment in the furnace, the first problem of cracks and surface layer differentiation in the castable refractory layer is not fundamentally changed, and the second problem of the radiation heat transfer performance of the inner wall of the furnace is not changed.
In order to improve the efficiency of radiation heat transfer on the inner walls of high-temperature heating furnaces, a wide variety of energy-saving coatings have been used in recent decades. Although the use temperature, technical performance and use effect are different, the obvious energy-saving effect is recognized. A major problem of spraying energy-saving coating on the inner wall of a high-temperature heating furnace is that the coating is liable to fall off, which has become a bottleneck for application and popularization. In addition to the technical level of the coating product, the reason for the falling off is that the ceramic fiber cotton, refractory bricks, high-temperature resistant castable and other furnace wall materials face the high temperature environment in the furnace for a long time and gradually crystallize and pulverize, then the shear stress between the coating and the furnace wall loses, and the coating falls off.
The patent with application publication number CN109535984A discloses Ultra-high temperature infrared radiation heat preservation and energy-saving coating. The coating can withstand a high temperature of 1800° C. The selected fillers of fused white corundum powder and tabular corundum powder also have excellent high temperature resistance. On the one hand, the high temperature resistance of the coating can be ensured. On the other hand, the coating and the inner wall of the furnace wall are closely connected to ensure that the coating does not fall off, since most of the inner walls of high-temperature kilns are made of corundum hollow ball bricks, and materials of the same nature are easily permeated and sintered into one body without the presence of low-melting substances. However, the coating described in the document still does not solve the problem that the inner wall of the furnace wall faces the high temperature environment in the furnace for a long time and gradually crystallizes and powders, which causes the coating to fall off.
The patent with the publication number CN2575107Y discloses Spacer for high-temperature heating furnace, the spacer is formed by stacking arc-shaped strips or plates made of tungsten powder or molybdenum powder or doped tungsten powder and molybdenum powder into a cylinder like a masonry wall to form the spacer of a heating furnace, which separates the sintered material from the refractory material, avoids the pollution of the sintered material, reduces the wear of the refractory material, and prolongs the service life of the refractory material. However, the heating furnace spacer provided in the patent document does not have the advantage of improving the radiation heat transfer performance of the inner wall of the furnace, and the technical background is proposed for tungsten and molybdenum induction sintering furnaces, and it is not indicated whether the patent is suitable for high-temperature heating furnaces in the steel, ceramics and petrochemical industries.
The patent with publication number CN2575107Y provides an energy-saving method for a tubular heating furnace, which solves the technical problem of being unable to reliably install numerous black-body elements with a certain weight on light and soft refractory fiber linings, and thus, the invention objectives of good energy-saving effect, low operating cost and easy implementation are realized. Specifically, the heating furnace is hollow inside, one end is an opening pointing to the center of the furnace, and the other end is a black body element tapered into the refractory fiber lining of the furnace wall. However, the black body elements provided in the patent document have the following disadvantages: 1. The furnace space is occupied, and the production operation is hindered; and 2. The inner wall of the originally flat furnace wall become greatly uneven due to the black body elements, which reduces the radiation heat transfer effect and convective heat transfer effect in the furnace, in addition, the black body element materials and adhesives are based on the existing technology in the field, and the materials do not have original contributions to improve the energy-saving effect.
In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a modular structure wall of a high-temperature heating furnace, which greatly increases the radiation coefficient of an inner wall of the high-temperature heating furnace, significantly enhances the heat transfer efficiency in the furnace, saves energy, reduces emissions, slows down the aging process of the furnace wall and prolongs the service life of the furnace wall.
