Definitions
- the invention relates to a centrifugal pump for conveying hot fluids, with a contacting shaft seal, a seal housing for the shaft seal and a return line for a partial flow of the conveying fluid.
- Such a centrifugal pump is described in DE 42 30 715 A1, which is used as a feed pump for conveying hot fluids.
- a discharge fluid exiting from the discharge device forms a partial flow of the delivery fluid.
- This partial flow also known as discharge water, is used to cool a mechanical seal. For this purpose, it flows through the sealing space completely, thereby dissipating the frictional heat generated during operation of the mechanical seal.
- the discharge water is then removed from the seal space via a return line connecting the seal housing to a pump stage.
- This type of shaft seal cooling can only be used up to a certain operating temperature of the delivery fluid.
- a centrifugal pump with a sealing system for higher operating temperatures is described in DE 195 18 564 A1.
- a further sealing element is arranged, which bears against the rotating part of the pump.
- This sealing element consists of a high polymer plastic.
- the sealing element shields the sealing space from the hot conveying fluid in the pump interior and at the same time ensures a pressure equalization with respect to the sealing space.
- the discharge water is returned through a return line to the suction side of the centrifugal pump.
- the seal housing is integrated into a cooling circuit, the cooling fluid was initially removed from the fluid flow. By a connected to the seal housing separate cooling circuit, the heat is removed from the cooling fluid.
- conventional external cooling systems can be used.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a multistage centrifugal pump in which the shaft sealing system is designed for a temperature range of the conveying fluid exceeding 160 ° C. and that it can be used for the entire temperature range of feed pumps. Furthermore, it is an object of the invention to dispense with the supply of external cooling fluids in the seal chamber and to provide a cost-effective, reliable sealing system.
- This object is achieved in that no delivery fluid is discharged from the seal housing, that between the seal housing and the pump housing, a separate housing cover is disposed, wherein between the seal housing and the housing cover a heat transfer minimizing contact surface and that the return line to the housing cover and / or is connected to the pump housing.
- the rotating component may be either the shaft of the pump or a shaft sleeve pushed over the pump shaft.
- the axial gap extends parallel to the shaft and passes around the shaft. Geometrically, this gap is a hollow cylinder.
- the gap throttles the influx of the pump delivery fluid into the seal chamber. The narrower and the longer the gap, the less discharge water can enter the seal housing.
- the invention is used in multi-stage centrifugal pumps, in which the centrifugal pump has a relief device for the axial thrust, the contacting shaft seal of the relief device is arranged downstream, being discharged through the return line discharge water.
- the return line for the discharge water is an additional source of heat when conveying hot fluids, which can exert a negative influence on the shaft seal.
- the connection for a return line for the discharge water has been arranged away from the seal housing.
- the heat from the return line can not be delivered directly to the seal housing.
- the new seal housing encloses the touching seal.
- the seal is a mechanical seal.
- the division into a housing cover and a new seal housing a thermal decoupling of the seal chamber is achieved with respect to the hot pump housing. On the one hand, this happens because the heat conduction between the housing cover and the seal housing is minimized. On the other hand, a delivery fluid arising as discharge water is already removed from the pump housing away from the seal housing.
- the seal housing on a projection.
- this projects in the form of a shoulder encompassing the shaft on the inside of the seal housing.
- the paragraph serves as a centering for the seal housing with respect to the housing closing the pump housing. Due to the surface of the projection, the heat conduction-related contact surfaces are reduced to a strength necessary measure. The aim is to make this contact surface as small as possible in order to minimize the heat conduction from the housing cover into the seal housing.
- the housing cover also has a projection.
- the projection of the housing cover protrudes into the seal housing.
- the projection of the housing cover is also formed as a hollow cylinder surrounding the shaft. The seal housing is pushed onto the outer circumferential surface of the housing cover projection until the projection of the seal housing meets the housing cover.
- the projection of the seal housing and the projection of the housing cover are force-transmitting to each other and can overlap each other.
- the heat conduction between the parts is additionally reduced if a heat-insulating sealing element is positioned between the contact surface of the projection and the housing cover.
- the projection can also be an individual part in the form of a thermally insulating, centering and can be arranged between the seal housing and housing cover connecting element. This results in a greater combination ability of such a seal housing with different types of pumps. Likewise, as part of a pump revision, older pumps can be retrofitted and thus upgraded for another field of application.
- the seal housing is composed of an inner and an outer part.
- the inner part that surrounds the contacting seal is made of a different material than the outer part. It proves to be advantageous if the inner part is designed as a sleeve which is thermally conductively and force-transmittingly connected to the outer part, for example, it may be shrunk. It is also conceivable that the outer part is provided on its inside with a protective coating, plating or the like. In this case, the coating or plating forms the inner part of the seal housing.
- the outer part of the seal housing has a better
- Form seal housing as a bronze body. But also others, good thermally conductive and resistant to the prevailing strength requirements materials are used.
- the inner part of the seal housing is preferably made of a material which is particularly resistant to corrosion by the fluid being conveyed.
- Stainless steel sleeve formed This can be in the outer part, for example a
- the bronze body ensures that the heat from the seal chamber is sufficiently dissipated to the environment of the pump.
- the projection of the seal housing is formed by the inner part of the seal housing. Only the projection has a direct contact with the housing cover. Since the inner part of the seal housing is made of a material with a poor thermal conductivity, for example stainless steel, in this embodiment, the heat flow, which is transferred from the hot housing cover to the cool-seal housing, reduced in size. As a result, a better thermal decoupling of the seal housing is achieved by the housing cover.
- the housing cover is made of a material having a poor thermal conductivity. It has proved to be particularly advantageous to manufacture the housing cover made of an alloyed, chemically resistant, steel. It proves to be advantageous while a steel with the steel group number 45. But also other chemically resistant and poorly heat-conductive materials are used.
- the seal housing has ribs with axial channels formed therebetween.
- the channels are preferably arranged in the outer part of the seal housing and open to the seal housing.
- the channels can be milled into the seal housing become.
- a cheaper way to manufacture is to make the outer part of the housing as a casting, with ribs or recesses for the channels.
- the ribs can be attached to the seal housing individually, in groups or in the form of a ribbed body to transmit heat. This can be accomplished with shrink joints, connectors and other known techniques.
- the channels are preferably flowed through by air. It has proved to be favorable to position on a rotating part, in particular a coupling of the pump, a fan wheel, which promotes an air flow through the channels. So that the air also flows through the inner areas of the channels, it proves to be appropriate, the
- the baffles can be attached to the seal housing. They surround the seal housing jacket-shaped and ensure that the air flow flows through the cross sections of the individual channels evenly.
- Fig. 1 shows a half-section of the pressure-side end of the centrifugal pump
- Fig. 2 is a 3-D drawing of the seal housing with housing cover.
- a section of a multi-stage centrifugal pump is shown.
- the centrifugal pump comprises a pressure housing 1 and a stage housing 2.
- the wheels 3 are mounted on a shaft 4 and in their entirety form the rotor.
- the bearing of this rotor via radial bearings 5 and thrust bearing 6.
- An axial thrust of the rotor is collected by a discharge device 7.
- a discharge device 7 In principle, there are two different variants, such as a discharge water flowing from it can be removed according to the invention.
- a return line 8 runs for the discharge water in the pressure housing 1.
- the return line 8 runs in the housing cover 9 closing the pressure housing 1.
- the housing cover 9 seals against the pressure housing 1.
- an axial gap 11 is formed between the housing cover 9 and a shaft protection sleeve 10.
- the axial gap 11 acts as a throttle for the pump fluid in the pump housing and prevents larger amounts of fluid flow into the space 12 of the seal housing 13 flow.
- a mechanical seal 14 is disposed within the seal housing 13. Mechanical seals belong to the category of contact seals.
- the mechanical seal 14 consists of two low-wear rings.
- the sliding ring 15 rotates with the shaft 4 or with the shaft protection sleeve 10, while the counter-ring 16 bears firmly against the seal housing 13.
- the seal housing 13 consists of the inner part 18, which surrounds the mechanical seal 14 and an outer part 19.
- the outer part 19 is a bronze body.
- the inner part 18 is designed as a stainless steel sleeve which has shrunk into the outer part 19. The stainless steel sleeve 18 is needed to ensure corrosion resistance, while the bronze body 19 is primarily for heat dissipation.
- a fan wheel 21 On a coupling 20 which connects the pump to a drive, a fan wheel 21 is mounted, which blows air over the seal housing 13. The air flows through passages located between ribs of the outer part and dissipates the heat from the seal housing 13. For better air flow, the outer part 19 of the seal housing 13 is surrounded by a baffle 22.
- the axial channels 23 in the outer part 19 of the seal housing 13 can be seen.
- the channels 23 are to the outer surface of the seal housing 13 open.
