Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cooling plate for provided with a refractory lining Shaft furnaces, with at least one coolant channel and with pipe sections to the coolant inlet or coolant outlet, wherein the respective Coolant channel on the one hand by a coolant channel cutout in the cooling plate itself and on the other hand by a second part is limited.
  • a generic cooling plate is known from EP 0 930 371 A1. These discloses a cooling plate for refractory lining Shaft furnaces, provided on the back of the cooling plate cooling channels that are to part through the cooling plate itself and to another part are limited by sheets, the cooling channels by milling in the back the cooling plate and / or are introduced into the sheets.
  • the cooling channels can each be closed by individual sheets or a whole plate become. In this case, the sheets or the plate on the back of the cooling plate attached by welding or bolting.
  • DE 40 35 893 C1 is a cooling box made of copper for cooling in particular described by blast furnace walls.
  • This has a plate-shaped Body on, with at least one an entrance and an exit having provided coolant groove.
  • the coolant grooves are by means of a on the body welded cover plate to form a coolant channel closed.
  • deposits, preferably of copper are introduced into the slot openings, which are welded to the base body and the cover plate.
  • a cooling plate for a shaft furnace which has a coolant channel which is covered by a cover plate.
  • the cover plate is partially sunk in the cooling plate.
  • the invention is based on the object, a generic cooling plate with to create improved manufacturing and cooling properties.
  • the coolant channel is the rear limiting second part as a cover plate in the formed by the cooling plate itself coolant channel cutout sunk arranged.
  • the core of the invention is therefore not the cover plate to arrange more on the actual back wall of the cooling plate or base plate, by straddling the coolant channel cutout, but that it immediately is recessed or immersed in the coolant channel cutout.
  • the cover plate is then formed by projecting webs of the coolant channel cutout encompassed.
  • the cover plate is arranged so that with its back flush with the back of the cooling plate.
  • the rear outer surfaces of the projecting webs of the coolant channel cutout and the back outer surface of the cover plate thus form a plane Area. This has for example advantages in the assembly, especially in the Backfill with refractory mass.
  • the cover plate with two longitudinal edges along the - coolant side - Inner surfaces of the projecting webs of the coolant channel cutout the cooling plate welded. Due to this arrangement of the welds arise improved weld formation.
  • the cover plate Due to the thickness and the cooling water side shape of the cover plate is the remaining Cross-section and the cross-sectional profile of the respective coolant channel certainly.
  • the cover plate is formed or arranged, that it protrudes so far into the coolant channel that the resulting Coolant channel runs approximately centrally to the entire cooling plate. by virtue of the displacement of the coolant channel to the cooling plate center are the improved cooling properties.
  • the cover plate has a plane coolant side Surface, according to a second embodiment, a single or multiple trough-shaped coolant-side surface.
  • the coolant channel cutout in the cooling plate formed single or multiple trough-shaped.
  • the total cross section of the coolant channel results from any Combination of the cross section of the coolant channel cutout in the Cooling plate and a flat or shaped cover plate.
  • the cross-sectional area the coolant channel with respect to the longitudinal extent of the cross section in the end areas are larger than in the middle area. If the end areas are half or are formed fully arched, resulting in approximately the cross-sectional shape of a Half or one full bone.
  • the cooling plate and / or the cover plate of a rolled or forged ingot of copper or a - low alloyed - Copper alloy manufactured are advantageousously, the production of cast copper or copper alloy casting proposed, for example by Stanggtigoder Sand casting.
  • the cooling plate and / or the Cover plate made of rolled or forged steel or cast steel or Made of gray special casting, which in particular reduces the material costs. It is also recommended to combine a cooling plate made of copper with a or respective cover plates made of steel.
  • Fig. 1 shows a section of a cross section through a cooling plate 1 and a stave with several coolant channels, here only one example Coolant channel 2 is shown.
  • This channel 2 with a coolant, like Water is flowed through, on the one hand by a section 3 and a Deepening in the cooling plate 1 itself and on the other hand by a cover plate 4th limited as a second part.
  • This cover plate 4 is in this case in the coolant channel cutout 3 recessed arranged that its back 5 flush with the Rear 6 of the cooling plate 1 closes.
  • cooling plate. 1 In order to produce such a cooling channel cross-section, are in the cooling plate. 1 starting from its rear side 6 or cold side, cutouts 3 or depressions, for example, by milling introduced. The respective cutouts 3 are surrounded by projecting webs 7a, b. It is recommended to take a tiered Insert cutout in the cooling plate 1. To connect will be the cover plate 4 inserted into the recess until it at the stage 8a, b for Plant comes. The thus fixed cover plate 4 is then along its longitudinal edges 9a, b welded to the inner surfaces 10a, b of the webs 7a, b. These are the Longitudinal edges 9a, b of the cover plate to ensure optimum welds 11a, b chamfered.
  • connection is made by multi-layer welding, for example by MSG (metal arc welding) or electric welding.
  • MSG metal arc welding
  • the cover plate 3 in the embodiment shown is a plan provided on the water-side surface 12, while the cutout 3 of the cooling plate. 1 is trough-shaped. It results in approximately a semi-oval cooling channel cross-section.
  • the oven interior facing hot side 13 of the cooling plate 1 is provided with grooves 14th provided for receiving refractory material 23.
  • FIG. 1 A second embodiment of a cooling plate 101 is shown in FIG.
  • the cover plate 104 no longer flat, but also trough-shaped or oval executed. Overall, this results in an approximately oval cross section of the cooling channel 102 with favorable flow properties.
  • the fluidic properties are further improved by the cooling plate 201 with a double trough-shaped cutout 203 or a depression, preferably by milling or profile rolling, is provided.
  • the troughs 214a, b are formed here as bulges.
  • a cover plate 204 with a plane water-side Surface 212 is approximately the shape of a half bone for the cooling channel 202.
  • the water-side surface 212 of the cover plate 204 to provide a complementary double trough-shaped depression, so that the overall result is the cross-sectional shape of a bone would.
  • a half or full bone cross section causes the largest Part of the cooling water no longer in the central area 215, but in the heat-loaded End portions or troughs 214a, b of the cooling channel 202 flows, wherein greater flow rates and thus more favorable heat transfer coefficient values can be achieved.
  • the cross section in the middle area 215 is to be construed proportionately so that the lower - there Amounts of heat - can be dissipated well.
  • Such cooling plates 1, 101, 201 or staves made of copper or steel have Pipe sections 16, 17 for coolant inlet and coolant outlet on. These Pipe sections may be at the ends of the respective coolant channels or even with closed ends of the coolant channels in holes in the cover plate are located, wherein the pipe sections 16, 17 through holes 18, 19 extend in the furnace wall 20 (see Fig. 4).
  • the cooling plate 1 When shown in Fig. 4 Embodiment, the cooling plate 1 by means of screws 21, 22 with the Furnace wall 20 connected.
  • Other connections are also conceivable, such as For example, a connection via a bridge bracket.
