When the alarm device of the booster turbine expander of the air separation unit rings, it is the signal of the failure of the booster turbine expander. Consequences: the pressure of the processing air increases, affecting the operation of the air turbine compressor, and the liquid level of the main condensing evaporator decreases, resulting in a decrease in output.

Emergency measures shall be taken in case of failure of booster turbine expander of air separation unit:

Start the standby booster turbine expander; Adjust the discharge pressure of the booster compressor to stabilize the discharge pressure of the booster compressor, check the purity of the product gas, reduce the product volume, reduce the liquid discharge volume, or stop completely if necessary.

Further measures: eliminate the fault immediately; Adjust the air volume and output to normal values.

The common failure of booster turbine expander is the blockage caused by ice and dry ice, which requires heating. As for other faults, the causes should be found out and eliminated according to the regulations on the use and maintenance of booster turbine expander.

DEAR air separation equipment manufacturing technology has studied technical theories and principles through long-term experience, and the manufacturing technology is mature and standardized. Each sub equipment has formulated use and maintenance regulations, and strictly controlled each stage, with quality first, to ensure the safety and efficiency of the equipment.

Temperature difference is the power of heat transfer. As long as there is temperature difference between two materials, they will carry out the heat or cold transfer spontaneously. The heat is always transferred from the fluid with higher temperature to the lower temperature fluid. Although the heat transfer process of various heat exchangers is not identical, the heat transfer law is basically the same. The following is an example of the most widely used dividing wall heat exchanger: heat is transferred from hot fluid to cold fluid through the wall and flows in the opposite direction. The whole heat transfer process is divided into three stages. In the first stage, convection heat transfer: the heat flow body transmits heat to the wall surface. This process not only has heat transfer caused by the relative displacement of each part of the fluid, but also has heat conduction in the fluid, which is the comprehensive function of convection and heat conduction. In the second
