9 Claims.
This invention relates to an induction process or pipe line having fixtures therein. More particularly it relates to a pipe line construction having fixtures located therein which may be maintained at the same elevated temperatures as the pipe line.
This invention has for an object the provision of a pipe line construction which allows a fixture to be readily accessible and removable and 10 at the same time maintainable at the same uniform elevated temperature as the line. A further object is to provide a pipe line for conveying substances of high melting point with heated fixtures which may be maintained at the same temperature as the line. Other objects include the heating of process pipelines and fixtures in the lines such as check valves, strainers and closure valves and plug cocks to a desired temperature. Other objects will appear hereinafter.
o Heretofore, the customary means of heating pipe lines for the transfer of high-melting point materials has involved expensive jacketing of the lines and valves; and, for temperature ranges in the neighborhood of 250 C. and above, directfire or electrical resistance heater elements have been employed. Such means have distinct disadvantages, however. For instance, direct-fire heating is inefficient, due to heat losses from radiation and convection, and in addition entails a constant fire hazard. Electrical resistor heaters, on the other hand, localize the application of their heat, and thus cause over-heating of the material in contact with the heater. Furthermore, their life at elevated temperatures is very 5 limited.
Induction-heating coils have also been used to heat pipe lines, but in high temperature practice fixtures such as'fianges and valves have fallen substantially below the temperature of the main 40 line, because of the increased heat dissipation from their surfaces and the decreased rate of heat generation per unit of their volume. Consequently, it frequently has been impossible to pass high freezing-temperature liquids through such systems.
It is true that the above-stated fixtures canbe heated to requisite temperatures by applying additional turns of the induction-heating coil around them, but low efiiciency results, over heating of the adjacent piping occurs, and such windings are bulky. Moreover, they are productive of costly delays in plant operations, in connection with the making of valve repairs or replacements, and are otherwise generally unsatisfactory.
These and other disadvantages are obviated,
and the above-mentioned objects accomplished by this invention, in which the induction-heating coils are omitted from the said fixtures but their ampere turns in proximity thereto are increased. fiux are thereby utilized. These may be shown by the following illustrations. If a magnetic member is encircled by one or more turns of current carrying wire, a magnetic flux is set up such that continuous flux lines pass through the mag- 10 netic member, reverse their direction in smooth curves at the ends of the member and join on the opposite side of the current carrying wire. If the current in the wire is alternating, the reversals in direction of the current and consequently the flux 15 will induce voltage and a current in the magnetic member. The current will be dissipated in the form of heat, which may be detected by a temperature rise of the magnetic member. If two such members he brought sufficiently close to- 20 gether in such a manner that the two groups of wire turns have a common axis, some of the continuous fiux lines will be common to both magnetic members. Heat will be generated in both members in this case, as previously described for 25 the single member. Also, if two such magnetic members, encircled by current-carrying wire, be separated by a third magnetic member which is not encircled by current-carrying wire, some 01' the lines of flux will be common to all three members, and heat will be generated in all three members.
The nature of this invention will be more fully understood by the devices described below and illustrated in the accompanying drawing wherein 35 similar reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of a pipe line having a plug cock therein, certain parts being shown in section. y
Fig. 2 is a transverse section taken along the line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an end elevation of the heating cylinder.
In the drawing the plug cock I has attached to 45 each flange a heating cylinder or magnetic sheath pipe sections 2 which has thick walls and contains a fluid passage 3 which is of the same internal diameter as the standard type of pipe 4 composed of iron or other magnetic material 50 which is connected to the heating cylinder by means of pipe flange 5 and bolts 6 and nuts I. The bolt heads fit into recesses 8 in the heating cylinder, the shanks of the bolts fitting in the U-shaped slots 3. 55
Specific characteristics of magnetic 5 I Heat insulating material l0 surrounds the pipe 4 and heating cylinder 5. Insulating material ll of the same type surrounds the plug cock I and is preferably separate from material I0 so that the plug cock may be readily removed for repairs or replacement. Wire coils I2 surround the heating cylinder and carry an electrical current. Similarly, electrical current carrying wire coils l2 surround the insulated pipe line 4. The coils l2 and I2 are generally in the same circuit being connected to an alternating current supply of normal commercial frequency.
. The cylinders which are in close proximity to the fixture have an increased number of turns as shown, and enable the fixture to be maintained at the same temperature as the line without any wire coils around the fixture itself. Thus, liquids which solidify at high temperatures may be passed throughthe line free from any deposition or precipitation in the fixture.
The electrical alternating current in the wire coils sets up lines of fiux in the magnetic members I, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 1 including in them alternating voltage and current, which causes heating of these members. The amount of heating may be controlled by the density of the wire coils, and by regulating the voltage and current in the wire coils, thus adjusting the number of ampere turns. For example, to maintain operating temperatures in the range of 350 and 450 C. in 2 inch pipe and fixtures, it has been found that with the wire turn density of coils l2 and I! in the relation of approximately 4 to 1, with the latter having a coil density of 10 turns perfoot of length pipe, and by impressing on these coils a voltage such that they carry a current of approximately amperes, very satisfactory uniform heating is obtained within all the heating members. Higher and lower temperature ranges than that given may easily be obtained, and other sizes of pipes and fixtures may be readily heated by varying the ampere turns, etc.
In place of the plug cock, other fixtures such as a check valve, strainer, closure or other fixture may be substituted and may similarly be removed, repaired and replaced, cleaned or adjusted, without altering the heating means. The installation is simple and inexpensive to construct, and since the heating and heated elements have indefinite lives they normally require no maintenance repairs. An installation may be made fire-proof, and, due to its flexibility, may be designed for continous or automatically controlled heating.
While the form of embodiment of my invention as herein disclosed constitutes a preferred form, it is to be understood that other forms might be adopted, all coming within the scope of the claims, which follow.
