Electric heat tracing system is used for generator cooling

The power plant generator will generate a large amount of heat energy after long-term operation. If it is not cooled, the temperature will continue to rise, requiring the application of a cooling water system. At present, most power plants in my country use cooling water systems as heat circulation exchange methods. Therefore, it is also called a cooling system. By circulating water, higher heat is taken away and plays a role in heat dissipation.

The cooling water system requires electric heating mainly due to the following three factors:

 

During winter intermittent operation, circulating water without heat will freeze.

 

In cold areas or when circulating pipes are long and far away, ice can occur in the pipes because the circulating water dissipates heat faster.

 

Due to the low ambient temperature of the pipes in the heat recovery area, the circulating water cooled by the cooling tower will also freeze. When the circulating water in a closed pipe freezes, the pipe will freeze and burst.

Generally speaking, the pipe length of this kind of cooling water system is not too long, and the temperature requirement is only to prevent freezing. Therefore, it is recommended to choose a self-limiting temperature electric heating tape. This electric heating tape can automatically adjust the temperature. When there are no fixed temperature control requirements, there is no need to use a temperature controller.

 

The self-limiting temperature electric heating tape can automatically adjust the temperature, thereby effectively preventing the adverse effects of too high or too low temperatures on pipes, equipment, etc. Secondly, self-limiting temperature electric heating tape also has the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection. Because this electric heating tape can automatically adjust the temperature, it can effectively reduce energy waste. Self-limiting temperature electric heating tape is also safe and reliable. This kind of electric heating tape uses special insulating materials and waterproof materials, which can effectively prevent leakage and short circuits, ensure the normal operation of pipelines, equipment, etc., and ensure the safety of use.
