Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for regulating conveying units for the transport of liquids and / or gases in pipelines according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Conveyor units are generally used in connection with pipelines for transport or conveying, centrifugal pumps, displacement pumps or water ring pumps (vacuum pumps) being mentioned.
  • cavitation describes a phenomenon that occurs when the Pressure in a liquid, for example due to excessive speed, drops in some places to the evaporation pressure. The resulting steam bubbles collapse again at higher pressure, and the "blows" associated with this lead to considerable stress on the delivery unit and the pipelines.
  • German laid-open specification DE-A-32 36 815 has also made a monitoring and control device on pipelines for transporting liquids to suppress cavitation known. So far, we have limited our to measuring physical quantities such as temperature or liquid level, It is proposed there to measure the cavitation directly by means of a pressure transducer in the form of a measuring membrane with foil strain gauges. Using a microprocessor that processes the measured cavitation values, the speed of a centrifugal pump can be changed until an optimal operating state occurs without any cavitation.
  • the invention takes the novel way of deliberately maintaining a certain minimal residual cavitation. So far - although inadequate - care has been taken to eliminate the cavitation as completely as possible, the invention therefore surprisingly provides for the measure to allow a minimal, however controllable, residual cavitation.
  • This unprecedented procedural step is based on the consideration of maintaining the inherently harmful disturbance variable "cavitation" to a small extent during operation, so that the disturbance variable remains under control at all times, so to speak.
  • the residual cavitation can easily be chosen so low that there are no fear of harmful side effects on the delivery unit and on the pipelines. It is sufficient if the residual cavitation is just barely measurable.
  • An important advantage of the invention is that the envisaged ongoing detection or measurement of the cavitation allows the delivery unit to be switched off if the measured cavitation is harmful and can be predetermined Cavitation limit exceeded. Basically, a completely self-regulating system is created, in which the flow rates are adjusted in accordance with the different operating conditions so that manual monitoring can be omitted. If a critical limit is exceeded, the corresponding system can be switched off automatically.
  • the "self-regulation" takes place in that, depending on the measured cavitation, the speed of a pump used as a delivery unit is regulated accordingly.
  • the invention can also be used in such a way that the measured cavitation is used to influence, for example, a throttle valve - and thus the delivery rate.
  • the invention can also be used in water ring pumps.
  • the fresh water supply was increased or additional ballast gas or air was provided to counteract the harmful cavitation that had occurred.
  • the fresh water consumption can now be reduced and also not only restrict the use of ballast gas or air, but even avoid the latter completely, since the pump speed can be reduced until the capacity of the pump matches the gas / air volume and the cavitation is acceptable.
  • a multi-stage evaporation plant 10 is shown schematically in FIG. 1.
  • the liquid accumulated in a first stage into a liquid container 12 is conveyed into a liquid container 14 of a further stage by means of a centrifugal pump 16. There the liquid has a liquid level (level) 20.
  • the liquid is further conveyed through a pipeline 22 by means of a centrifugal pump 18.
  • a centrifugal pump 18 On the pressure side of the centrifugal pump 18 or the pipeline 22, the cavitation is now measured at a pipe branch 24.
  • the measured values are fed to a microprocessor 26 which, via a frequency converter 28, influences an electric motor 30 for adjusting the speed of the centrifugal pump 18.
  • the The speed of the centrifugal pump 18 is controlled in such a way that a minimal residual cavitation is maintained (which will be explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5).
  • the pipe branch 24 contains a measuring membrane 32 with glued-on foil strain gauges 34.
  • flexible seals 36 are provided in the area of a flange 38, which act as a support for the flexible seals 36 serves.
  • a clamping device which is necessary per se, for bracing the flexible seals 36, the measuring membrane 32, is not shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • Fig. 3 shows a further embodiment, wherein the measuring membrane 32 is arched to ensure the required mechanical resistance both in vacuum and in overpressure.
  • Cavitation 42 is present in the area marked I, while area II indicates a pulsation 44.
  • the area "III” represents the normal operation 46, which is again specified separately within the area IV as the condition referred to in the above-mentioned German laid-open specification 32 36 815 as the optimal operating condition 48.
  • the area V represents a filling curve 50, i.e. a state is shown as it occurs when the suction side of the centrifugal pump 18 in FIG. 1 is filled after an insufficient change in the speed when the liquid level 20 of the liquid container 14 rises.
  • the diagram 52 in FIG. 5 shows the operating state realized with the invention, in which a minimal residual cavitation 54 is deliberately maintained, and this deviates from the operating state 48 shown in area IV in FIG. 4.
  • the associated low level 20 ensures a relatively short dead time or dwell time of the liquid.
  • Another significant advantage of the invention is given in conveyor units, the speed of which can be changed. Since the possibility of measuring the cavitation is provided, a cavitation limit value can easily be set at which the system is switched off or an alarm is given.
  • the invention advantageously allows a considerable restriction of fresh water consumption and the use of ballast gas or air, since the pump speed in the method according to the invention is regulated down until the capacity of the pump matches the gas / air volume and the cavitation is depressed to the remaining cavitation 54.
