Definitions
- the invention is in the field of crude oil tank cleaning and is concerned with a method and a device for recovering thickened, Sedimented crude oil by liquefaction of sediment with non-sedimented Crude oil.
- the method is also suitable for mixing processes in fluids, for example, in larger to large chemical reactors.
- the invention relates to the process mentioned under group 2.
- This method by means of a plurality of nozzles becomes a main flow direction enforced, which has the purpose of eroding the sediment solve and suspend. Secondary, not in the mainstream direction oriented nozzles cause additional shear surfaces through which the turbulence is still increased.
- the invention also relates to the application of the method in chemical reactors, in large mixing tanks and everywhere where big ones Voluminas must be intimately mixed.
- Each submerged jet causes by the resistance in the medium, in which he immersed, turbulence and end of its range is all introduced Energy in motion and divided into turbulent flows.
- These turbulent currents are from the perspective of large Voluminas considered locally, so small-scale. It but these are small-scale turbulences, which have a strong eroding effect and the aim of the invention is to maximize the number of small-scale Create turbulence and distribute it over a large volume.
- large volumes are, for example, 8000 m3 on an area of 2000 m2 and a height meant by 4 m, as the example.
- With a storage tank of 50 m diameter and a liquid column of 3-4 m is the case.
- Such volumes can also be over Shearing surfaces in parts by volume are weakly decoupled. The problem exists So in the optimal distribution of the energy introduced over a desired Volume.
- the hydrokinetic energy for such large voluminas lies in the Magnitude of several thousand hp. About 30% are from the pumps up to the nozzles, ie consumed within the device, the rest, for example 2000 PS is introduced into the medium via the nozzles. In the example that is still discussed will, over 300 nozzles are aligned so that a maximum local turbulence arises, the main flow acts as a transport mechanism for the local turbulence, which is distributed over the desired volume. The effect is a flowing fluidized bed of high turbulence, so a targeted aligned Chaos.
- a submerged jet depends on the pressure and the flow rate.
- a pressure behind the nozzles of about 2 forms bar and a nozzle cross section of approx. 200 mm2 a beam between 5-7 m.
- a nozzle of 110 mm2. If you order the nozzles with the bigger one Flow rate in a first plane into a main flow direction to be achieved, For example, 90 nozzles and a further number of nozzles with a smaller flow rate in a second level, for example.
- nozzles additionally in a 120, for example Grad angle opposite to the main flow direction, as shown in FIG 1 and directed one more 90 nozzles with any flow in a third level down to the main flow direction down, so first form locally in the sphere of influence the nozzles turbulence, which then transported away in the main flow direction become.
- FIG. 1 shows an example of an ensemble of a plurality of lances 5 arranged annularly in the container 10, each of which has 4 nozzles, namely: 1 nozzle for the jet 1 with 200 mm 2 in the main flow direction, its jet 1 with a rich one Dash is drawn; 2 nozzles for the beam 2 with 110 mm2 at 120 degrees angle in a separate plane obliquely to the rear, the beams 2 are marked with a thin line; 1 nozzle for the beam 3 perpendicular to the plane of the paper, which points downwards in the medium in the z-direction, is not visible.
- the rays drawn out beyond the edge of the vessel 10 collide against the vessel wall during operation and are reflected turbulently.
- the approximate length of the rays are essentially drawn, they can be 5-7 meters long in practice.
- a scattered lance 5 with the three beams 1 main beam, 2 secondary beams drawn for clarity from the composite out. How it is physically constructed will be discussed in a later figure.
- the Figure now shows a well-covered field of submerged jets, the Main direction beam extends approximately to the next lance downstream. Now shows the figure but also three hatched areas, which are representative of all spaces stand between the rays. These areas represent a kind of 'backwater', so rather quiet zones measuring about 9-15 m2.
- the procedure shows an extraordinary speed. It succeeds in a short time one to introduce large amounts of energy into the fluid volume. For example, in can be in recirculation within 24-30 hours the amount of energy of 2000 PSh (1472 kWh) in 7-10'000. Bring in a ton of liquid, taking it after 20-30 Heated hours.
- Such processes of intimate mixing are also in the chemical process technology desired, while allowing unwanted heat through Can lead away cooling.
- Larger chemical reactors can use this Process are operated with a very high mixing effect, wherein the device, which is discussed below, is very easy to clean and also in the handling fits perfectly into the milieu of the chemical process technology.
- Figure 2 shows the same ensemble as Figure 1 but in a different form of orientation.
- the nozzles to achieve the main flow direction of each of the lances are not aligned with the next but next downstream lance.
- a stronger, beam crossing takes place, without the energy-distributing superordinate flow being omitted.
- the silent zones marked by hatching remain essentially the same size; It is therefore clear that the mere alignment of the lances, these backwater-like areas can not be worked intensively. So it needs to distribute a targeted transport of the turbulence generated over the entire space to be processed.
- Figure 3 shows the effect of the submerged beams in the vertical section to the two discussed above Figures 1 and 2, that is viewed from the side.
- the most intensive local turbulence formation takes place at the shear surfaces of the opposite beam direction, shown here as an imaginary shear surface 20.
- the submerged jet itself or its energy ultimately dissolves into turbulences due to the resistance of the surrounding medium, the turbulence formation at the macroscopic shear surfaces is considerably stronger. This process tries to show Figure 3 in the picture.
- the thick arrows drawn 1 represent rays of higher flow, ie greater mass movement, the thinner arrows represent 2 rays of lesser mass movement, for example. Only half of the parent flow driving rays.
- the purposeful co-existence provides only the desired effect.
- FIG. 3 shows in a likewise schematic representation the recirculation of the material to be mixed.
- a layer 30 above the zone in which the turbulence formation and distribution takes place so much is withdrawn from the supernatant medium by means of a pump 31 via a suction port 32, as is fed via the supply lines 33 and 33 'and 33 "into the micro-vortex bed,
- the flow conditions in the supernatant medium are much less intense and even cause some shielding of the main flow upwards, depending on the arrangement of the suction points with respect to the flowing turbulent layer
- Liquid friction to the upwardly propagated effect, namely to join the flow direction is disturbed or dampened, but the vertical effects are still aided by the heating up of the medium by internal friction, which causes convection upwards By and large, all of these phenomena contribute Mixing be i, but none as intense as the formation of turbulence generators and the carryover of the local turbulence over the desired volume, which is determined
- the suction for the recirculation also in places near or in the turbulence or micro-vortex bed respectively. But it is important to ensure that the sucked turbulent medium on the way to the pump has calmed down a bit.
- the device for carrying out the method consists of an ensemble of a plurality of cooperating lances, ie an arrangement effecting a flow system, such as an example of such shown in Figure 4 , with nozzles of different flow rates or equal flow rates with correspondingly more nozzles, according to Procedures are oriented to each other. Also, the nozzles may have orientations that cause only one component opposite or in the main direction.
- the lance shank of the lance 5 can be seen with a nozzle for the jet 1 generating the main flow and the nozzles for the jet 2 forming a counterflow component. At the lower end of the lance in FIG. 5, the nozzle for the fourth jet 3 is arranged.
- a diffuser 9 At the upper end of a diffuser 9 is arranged, here schematically drawn as a manifold, it is attached via a flange 8 as a hose connection, a supply hose 6 for the fluid.
- the lance is inserted through a quiver 15 shown in section in the lid 11 of the container 10 and oriented to the plurality of other lances, which are arranged in the same lid, and moored.
- Such lances are very efficient in manufacture, assembly and operation.
- a preferred embodiment a lance has a neutral nozzle arranged in its axis, a nozzle arranged transversely to the longitudinal axis of the lance for the main flow direction, So a nozzle with a large cross-section, at a distance to the side of the feed to two further nozzles transversely to the longitudinal axis of the lance in the 120 degree angle, As Figure 5 shows, to the nozzle for the main flow direction, wherein the cross section both nozzles together at least one third smaller than the cross section the nozzle for the main flow direction.
- the mainstream can also be with several nozzles are accomplished; it is only important that the total cross-section in the main direction is greater than in the opposite direction, which is also one any directional component is concerned.
- Figure 5 shows schematically in the form of 6 pictograms A, B, C, D, E, F some arrangements of nozzles on a lance, the nozzles, although drawn next to each other, being arranged in different planes or along the lance shaft.
- the nozzles for the main flow direction or their cross-section are drawn upwards in the picture and designated H, the nozzles for the counter-direction flow or whose cross-section is denoted by G.
- H the nozzles for the counter-direction flow or whose cross-section is denoted by G.
- Each of these planes can have one or more nozzles. Shown here is just the principle.
- Pictogram A shows, for example, 3 nozzles each with 100 mm2 cross section and a nozzle in Counter direction with 100 mm2, for example, in the plane of the topmost main flow direction nozzle arranged.
- Pictogram B shows, similar to Figure 5, an overall cross-section in the main flow direction and 2/3 total cross-section in each 120 degrees angle, which in the opposite direction produces a component similar to the one pictogram A, whereby a different local turbulence formation arises.
- Pictogram C indicates Ratio of 3: 2, ie in the opposite direction 2/3 of the effect.
- Pictogram D shows a Variant in the purely computationally no much larger flow in the main direction flow should arise, but it still forms a slight flow against the counterflow.
- Pictogram F shows the completeness half and as discussed in detail above that instead of 2 or 3 nozzles with a cross section of, for example, 100 mm 2 in the main flow direction one Nozzle with 200 mm2 or even 300 mm2 can be used. This is insofar important because larger mass flows usually have a greater impact. Thus, one has to weigh in each case whether more individual beams with smaller mass flows, So smaller cross section, or less individual rays with larger Mass cross section to be used.
- this method and apparatus can be used for processes, which require an intimate mixing of large volumes.
- crude oil tanks of any size so up to 100 m diameter and more or chemical reactors of a few meters in diameter or larger Mixing tanks and the like.
- the lid would be a corresponding Amount according to the invention to each other oriented and dimensioned injectors have to be easily replaceable and can be cleaned well.
- cleaning the injectors should not be a problem.
- such an injector can be designed in such a way that it has as few as possible undercuts, in which substances can deposit.
- the washing process should allow that through the flow In the injector and the intensive mixing outside the substances of the preceding Preparation completely flushed out.
