In addition, the turbine engine also has the advantages of small volume, light weight and high power density.

On the other hand, a turbine engine is an engine that generates power by rotating a fluid impacting an impeller. Therefore, the impeller and blades of the turbine engine need to be kept clean to prevent debris from damaging the balance of the impeller or damaging the impeller, thereby causing equipment failure.

At least one embodiment of the present disclosure provides a fracturing apparatus comprising a power plant.

For example, "below" in the embodiments of the present disclosure does not necessarily mean directly below, and may be obliquely below.

In at least one embodiment, the washing device is directly driven by electric power, namely directly driven by an electric motor, so that the occupied volume of the washing device can be effectively reduced, and the washing device is conveniently placed below the turbine engine. For example, the highest point of the washing device is located below the lowest point of the turbine engine, and the arrangement is such that the washing device does not obstruct the turbine engine in the height direction, thereby facilitating the overhaul of the turbine engine.

In other examples, the cleaning device may be pneumatically or hydraulically driven. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the driving manner of the cleaning device.

Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a fracturing apparatus provided in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure, for example, the schematic diagram is a side view.

As shown in fig. 1, the fracturing apparatus 5 comprises a power plant 1. The power plant 1 comprises a sound-damping compartment 11, a turbine engine 12, an air intake 13 and a washing device 14.

The silencing chamber 11 has a housing space 110, and the turbine engine 12 and the washing device 14 are located in the housing space 110. For example, the inner wall of the silencing chamber is provided with silencing devices such as silencing cotton or silencing plates.

The intake device 13 is located at the top of the sound-deadening compartment 11, communicates with the turbine engine 12 through an intake duct 131, and is configured to supply combustion-supporting gas to the turbine engine 12. For example, the intake device 13 includes an intake filter, and an intake silencer, one end of which is connected to the intake filter, and the other end of which communicates with the intake duct 131.

For example, the air intake device 13 includes a plurality of intake chambers 132 arranged side by side. The plurality of intake chambers 132 facilitate increasing the volume of the intake device 13, not only having a larger gas capacity, thereby increasing the power of the turbine engine 12; but also helps to reduce the resistance of the intake and exhaust gases and thereby helps to extend the life of the turbine engine.

For example, the air intake device 13 extends beyond the silencer compartment 11 in the axial direction of the turbine engine, which not only helps to increase the volume of the air intake compartment, but also shields (e.g., rain) the underlying structures (such as the air intake assembly and the air outlet assembly). It should be noted that the axial direction of the turbine engine may be the extending direction of the transmission shaft or the output shaft in the turbine engine.

The air intake device 13 is fixed to the top of the sound-deadening compartment 11 by welding or the like, for example.

For example, the washing device 14 is located on a side of the turbine engine 12 remote from the air intake device 13, i.e. below the turbine engine. For example, the wash device 14 may be located directly or obliquely below the turbine engine 12. For example, the washing device 14 includes a water tank 141 and a washing pump 142; for example, the cleaning device 14 is electrically driven, which can reduce the footprint of the cleaning device. In other examples, the cleaning device may be driven by an air compressor, for example, located outside the sound-deadening compartment, which may be driven by an electric drive, for example; in still other examples, the cleaning device may be driven using a hydraulic system, which may be electrically driven, for example.

For example, the power plant 1 further comprises a starting device located inside the silencing compartment 11, which is configured to start the turbine engine 12.

For example, the starting means comprises an electric motor. For example, the electric motor is used to directly start the turbine engine 12, i.e., the turbine engine is started by electric power. In this case, for example, as shown in fig. 2, the starting device 121 is integrated in the turbine engine.

Compared with a fracturing pump device directly driven by electric power, the electric power required by starting the turbine engine is far less, and the power supply requirement on a fracturing operation site is reduced.

In other examples, the turbine engine 12 includes a hydraulic system that is driven by an electric motor in the starting apparatus, i.e., the hydraulic system is driven by electricity, to start the turbine engine. For example, the electric motor is located on a side of the turbine engine 12 remote from the air intake.

The electric motor occupies less space than if a diesel driven hydraulic system were used and therefore can be placed below the turbine engine.

For example, the hydraulic system includes a hydraulic pump, a hydraulic motor, various valve members, a hydraulic oil tank, a hydraulic oil radiator, and the like; for example, the hydraulic system is configured to drive a fuel pump, a starter motor, etc. of the turbine engine 12 under the drive of an electric motor to start the turbine engine 12.

For example, the power plant also includes a first lubrication system 122, the first lubrication system 122 configured to lubricate the turbine engine 12. FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a schematic view of the turbine engine 12, as shown in FIG. 2, with the first lubrication system 122 integrated into the turbine engine 12.

The first lubrication system 122 comprises a first lubrication oil tank 122a and a first drive mechanism 122b comprising an electric motor, i.e. the first lubrication system is driven by electric power.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, the power unit 1 further includes a reduction mechanism 16 located in the muffler compartment 11, and a second lubrication system 161, the second lubrication system 161 being configured to lubricate the reduction mechanism 16. The speed reduction mechanism 16 is connected to an output shaft of the turbine engine 12, and is arranged in the axial direction with the turbine engine 12.

The second lubrication system 161 includes a second lubrication oil tank 161a and a second driving mechanism 161b, and the second driving mechanism 161b includes a motor, that is, the second lubrication system 161 is driven by electric power, and thus, may have a small volume.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, the second lubrication system 161 is located on a side of the turbine engine 12 away from the air intake 13, such as below the turbine engine 12. For example, the second lubrication system 16 is axially juxtaposed with the cleaning device 14, and the second lubrication system 16 is closer to the speed reduction mechanism 16 than the cleaning device 14, thereby facilitating the second lubrication system 16 to lubricate the speed reduction mechanism 16.

The inside of the silencing chamber is a relatively closed chamber body, the operation of the turbine engine 12 causes the inside of the silencing chamber to be easy to have high temperature or generate natural gas leakage, and the dangerous case has concealment, so that the danger judgment delay exists in manual patrol, and the safety of personnel and equipment cannot be reliably guaranteed.

For example, the power device 1 further comprises a fire-fighting system, the fire-fighting system can realize early warning of dangerous situations in the silencing cabin, and in at least one example, the fire-fighting system can automatically extinguish fire in the silencing cabin 11, so that the reliability of equipment operation and the safety of personnel are greatly improved.

Fig. 3A is a schematic view of a fire protection system provided in accordance with at least some embodiments of the present disclosure. For clarity, some elements of the fracturing apparatus are omitted from fig. 3A.

As shown in fig. 3A, the fire fighting system 17 includes at least one fire detector 171 and a fire fighting material generator 172 located within the sound suppression compartment 11. The fire detector 171 may include, but is not limited to, a temperature detector, a smoke detector, a flame detector, a combustible gas detector, etc.; when there are multiple types of fire detectors, the number of each type of fire detector is not limited.

The fire-fighting material generator 172 contains fire-fighting material therein. For example, the fire-fighting material comprises aerosol, and compared with the traditional dry powder material, the fire-fighting performance of the aerosol with the same volume is better, so that the occupied space of the container of the aerosol is smaller, and the container is conveniently arranged in the silencing chamber 11.

As shown in fig. 3A, the fire fighting system 17 includes a plurality of fire fighting detectors 171 disposed at the roof of the sound-deadening compartment 11 to detect at a plurality of different locations within the sound-deadening compartment 11; for example, the fire detector 171 is provided directly above the turbine engine 12 and the reduction mechanism 16, respectively. The plurality of fire detectors 171 may be of the same type or different types. The fire-fighting material generator 172 is disposed on the support column 160 between the turbine engine 171 and the reduction mechanism 16.

For example, the fire protection system 17 further includes an alarm 173, a controller 174, a fire display 175, and an emergency switch 176 located outside the sound suppression compartment 11. The controller 174 is in signal communication with (e.g., in communication with) the alarm 173, the fire detector 171, and the fire-fighting material generator 172, respectively. When the fire detector 171 detects an abnormality, for example, at least one of the temperature, the smoke concentration, and the combustible gas concentration in the muffler chamber 11 is higher than a threshold value or a flame is detected, the trigger controller 174 controls the fire-fighting material generator 172 to automatically activate and spray fire-fighting materials, and controls the alarm 173 to send an alarm signal.

For example, the fire protection system 17 may also include a manual fire suppression device 177 located outside the suppression compartment 11 for manual fire suppression by field personnel. For example, the manual fire-extinguishing device 177 may be a dry powder fire extinguisher.

Fig. 3B is a schematic illustration of a fire protection system in a fracturing apparatus provided in further examples of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3B, the fire fighting system includes a control unit, an alarm and a fire-fighting material generator, a plurality of temperature sensors, a plurality of smoke sensors, and a plurality of combustible gas sensors. The control unit is respectively in signal connection with the alarm, the fire-fighting material generator temperature sensor, the smoke sensor and the combustible gas sensor.

For example, the control unit is configured to control the plurality of temperature sensors to simultaneously perform temperature detection at different positions within the turbine engine compartment body, generate a temperature data set using the obtained temperature data, and periodically repeat the above operations and output the temperature data set, thereby detecting the compartment temperature.

For example, the control unit is further configured to control the plurality of smoke detectors to perform smoke detection simultaneously at different positions in the body of the turbine engine compartment, generate a smoke data set using the obtained smoke data, and periodically repeat the above operations and output the smoke data set, thereby detecting smoke in the compartment.

For example, the control unit is further configured to control the plurality of combustible gas sensors to simultaneously perform concentration detection of combustible gas at different positions in the cabin body of the turbine engine, generate a methane data set using the obtained combustible gas concentration data, and periodically repeat the above operations and output the combustible gas data set, thereby detecting combustible gas in the cabin, for example, the combustible gas including methane.

For example, the control unit is further configured to periodically call the temperature data set and the temperature threshold value to perform condition judgment in response to a preset temperature threshold value, the condition is that whether more than half of the temperature data in the temperature data set is higher than the temperature threshold value, if the judgment result is yes, fire information is output, and if the judgment result is no, abstinence information is output, wherein the abstinence information comprises the temperature data with the temperature higher than the temperature threshold value and the detection position thereof.

For example, the control unit is further configured to respond to an externally input smoke threshold, periodically call the smoke data set and the smoke threshold to perform condition judgment, judge whether half of the smoke data in the smoke data set are higher than the smoke threshold, if so, output fire information, and if not, output abstaining information, wherein the abstaining information comprises the smoke data with the smoke higher than the smoke threshold and the detection position thereof.

For example, the control unit is further configured to respond to an externally input combustible gas concentration threshold, periodically call the combustible gas data set and the combustible gas concentration threshold to perform condition judgment, judge whether more than half of the combustible gas concentration data in the combustible gas data set are higher than the combustible gas concentration threshold, if the judgment result is yes, output warning information, and if the judgment result is no, output abstaining information, where the abstaining information includes a combustible gas concentration value and a measurement position thereof, where the combustible gas concentration is higher than the combustible gas concentration threshold.

For example, the control unit is further configured to trigger the fire-fighting material generator to perform a fire-fighting operation, such as emitting aerosols, carbon dioxide, etc., in response to the fire information; at the same time, the alarm is triggered to send out an alarm signal, such as an acoustic signal and/or a light signal. For example, the fire-fighting material generator includes a sprinkler arrangement, including, for example, a sprinkler head, a reservoir, and piping.

For example, the control unit is further configured to recheck the detection of the combustible gas to improve the accuracy of the detection. For example, the control unit is configured to respond to the fire information, judge whether warning information is received at the same time, if yes, do no processing, if no, call all methane concentration data with methane concentration values smaller than a methane concentration threshold value and detection positions thereof to generate an abnormal group, and output the abnormal group.

This fire extinguishing system can be according to temperature sensor calibration, smoke transducer calibration recheck combustible gas concentration sensor, avoids equipment unusual, further improves the fire control security performance of equipment.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, the power device 1 further includes an air intake assembly 18 and an air outlet assembly 19. The air intake assembly 18 is located at one axial side of the silencing chamber in the turbine engine, and the accommodating spaces of the silencing chamber 12 are communicated with each other. The air outlet assembly 19 is located on the other axial side of the silencing cabin in the turbine engine, and is arranged opposite to the air inlet assembly 19, and the air outlet assembly 19 is communicated with the accommodating space of the silencing cabin 12. The air inlet assembly 18 and the air outlet assembly 19 are used for creating a circulating environment for the interior of the silencing cabin, and are beneficial to heat dissipation in the cabin body.

Fig. 4A shows an enlarged schematic view of the air outlet assembly 19. For example, as shown in fig. 4A, the air outlet assembly 19 includes an air outlet pipe 191 and a guiding portion 192 connected to the air outlet pipe 191, and the guiding portion is configured to change an orientation of an air outlet of the air outlet assembly, so as to effectively reduce damage of wind sand entering the sound deadening cabin from the air outlet assembly to the material in the cabin.

For example, during loading or transportation of the fracturing equipment, the air outlet assembly 19 is usually close to the front, i.e. the head, along the transportation direction; the air intake assembly 18 is closer to the rear, i.e., the tail, to facilitate unloading and performing fracturing operations after the fracturing equipment arrives at the job site. Thus, during transportation, sand is easy to flow into the silencing chamber from the air outlet assembly 19.

As shown in fig. 4A, the guiding portion 192 is provided to change the direction of the outlet from horizontal forward (i.e., moving direction) to oblique downward, thereby effectively reducing the sand intrusion. The orientation of the outlet is shown by the dashed arrows in fig. 4A. However, the embodiment of the disclosure does not limit the orientation of the air outlet assembly after the guiding portion is disposed. In other examples, the air outlet may face upward or sideways, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, the guiding portion 192 is rotatably connected to the air outlet duct 191, and the direction of the air outlet assembly 19 can be changed by rotating the guiding portion 192.

As shown in fig. 4A, for example, the lead-out portion 192 has an elbow shape and a conical cross section, for example, with a cone angle of 40 ° to 60 °, for example, 45 °.

For example, as shown in fig. 4A, the outlet portion 192 includes a shielding portion 192a and an outlet portion 192b, the shielding portion 192a is configured to shield the outlet opening 191a of the outlet duct 191 to block external wind and sand, and the outlet portion 192b is configured to discharge the gas flowing into the outlet portion 192 from the outlet duct 191. The boundary line between the shielding portion 192a and the air-out portion 192b is shown by a broken line perpendicular to the air outlet 191a of the air-out duct 191 in fig. 4A, but the boundary line does not necessarily exist actually.

For example, the orthographic projection of the shielding portion 192a on the plane where the air outlet 191a of the air outlet duct 191 is located at least partially overlaps with the air outlet 191a to form shielding, and the overlapping area is greater than 30% of the area of the air outlet, thereby realizing effective shielding.

The lead-out portion 192 is structurally designed to achieve the shielding effect autonomously, and this design does not require additional power or control.

In other examples, for example, as shown in fig. 4B, the air outlet portion 192B may include a rotating shaft 193a and a blade 193B disposed on the rotating shaft 193a, and the blade 193B may rotate around the rotating shaft, for example, under an external force. For example, the rotary shaft and the blades are positioned at an air outlet provided at the air outlet portion. Through rotating this blade, can realize switching on and closing of this air-out portion. For example, during transport, the air outlet can be closed; when fracturing operation, can open this air-out portion. Fig. 4B shows a schematic view of the shaft and the blades in the direction perpendicular to the air outlet surface of the air outlet portion 192B, the air outlet portion being in the closed state (left side of fig. 4B) and the open state (right side of fig. 4B), respectively.

For example, the power plant further includes an exhaust muffler in communication with the turbine engine 12 via an exhaust duct for muffling and directing exhaust gases from the turbine engine 12 to the atmosphere. Fig. 5A illustrates a schematic structural diagram of an exhaust muffler provided in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in fig. 5A, the exhaust silencer 20 includes an L-shaped gas transmission passage 201, the gas transmission passage 201 is L-shaped, one end of the gas transmission passage 201 has a gas inlet 201a, the gas inlet 201a communicates with the turbine engine 12 through an exhaust passage to supply gas, and the other end has a gas outlet 201b facing upward, so as to discharge exhaust gas generated by the turbine engine to the atmosphere. The direction of gas transport is shown by the arrows in fig. 5A.

The exhaust silencer 20 further includes a silencing layer 202 covering the inner wall of the gas transmission pipe 201 to perform silencing, so that when the gas in the gas transmission pipe 201 contacts with the silencing layer 202, the noise generated during gas transmission can be effectively reduced. For example, the sound damping layer 202 includes sound damping cotton.

For example, the exhaust muffler 20 further includes a muffling hole plate 203 located on the inner wall of the muffling layer 202, and holes are provided in the muffling hole plate 203 so that the gas in the gas transmission pipe 201 contacts the muffling layer 202 to perform a muffling function.

Fig. 5B shows a schematic structural view of the muffling hole plate 203. For example, the muffling hole plate 203 is tubular, and fig. 5B shows a partial schematic view of the muffling hole plate 203.

For example, the muffling hole plate 203 is provided with a plurality of muffling holes 203a arranged in an array, so that the gas is in full contact with the muffling hole plate, and the gas collides with the hole walls of the muffling hole plate 203, thereby improving the muffling effect. For example, the radius of the muffling aperture 203a is 2-8 mm. The planar shape of the muffling hole is not limited by the disclosed embodiment, and for example, the planar shape of the muffling hole may also be an oblong, an oval, a square, a diamond, or the like.

For example, as shown in fig. 5A, the intake port 201a of the exhaust muffler 20 has a receding structure whose inner diameter gradually decreases in the intake direction. When waste gas got into gas transmission pipeline 201, the space took place to shrink for gas flow direction takes place the rapid change, improves the noise cancelling effect.

For example, as shown in fig. 5A, the exhaust muffler 20 further includes a thermal insulation layer 204 between the inner wall of the exhaust muffler 20 and the sound deadening layer 202 to prevent the exhaust muffler shell from burning. For example, turbine engine exhaust temperatures are as high as 600 ℃, requiring insulation designs.

For example, the exhaust muffler 20 further includes a drain port 205 at the bottom. For example, when the exhaust muffler 20 is filled with water, the water may be discharged through the sound-deadening plate 203, and finally the water may be discharged through the water discharge port 205.

The exhaust muffler 20 shown in fig. 5A performs sound attenuation and simultaneously maintains the smoothness of the gas transmission pipeline as much as possible, thereby reducing exhaust resistance and improving exhaust efficiency.

Fig. 5C is a schematic structural diagram of an exhaust muffler according to other embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 5C, unlike the embodiment shown in fig. 5A, the exhaust muffler 20 includes a sound-deadening barrier 206 for increasing the resistance of the exhaust gas to perform the functions of sound-deadening and noise-reduction. For example, the sound-deadening barrier 206 includes a heat-resistant material, such as sound-deadening cotton, to have an adsorption function for noise. For example, the sound-deadening barrier 206 is disposed in a branch of the gas transport pipe 201 near the gas outlet 201b, and the exhaust gas entering the pipe passes through the sound-deadening barrier 206 to reach the gas outlet 201 b.

For example, in some examples, the air outlet of the guiding portion 192 of the air outlet assembly 19 may be disposed to face the outer surface of the exhaust silencer 20, and the air discharged from the air outlet assembly 19 cools the surface of the exhaust silencer, so as to achieve effective utilization of the outlet air.

For example, when the turbine engine is started, the speed is not high enough, and the braking mechanism can be started to prevent the fracturing pump from being driven to influence the fracturing effect. For example, the brake mechanism may include brake pads, brake calipers, and the like.

As shown in fig. 6, the braking mechanism may be disposed at any one or more of three positions between the turbine engine and the speed reduction mechanism (position a), between the speed reduction mechanism and the transmission mechanism (position B), and between the transmission mechanism and the fracturing pump (position C), to finally achieve disconnection between the power input and output.

For example, the lubricating oil heat sink 23 includes a motor 231 and a radiator 232.

The lubrication system 23 is longitudinally aligned with the fracturing pump 21, thereby making the structure more compact.

For example, the frac pump apparatus 2 further includes a frac pump mount 24 located below the frac pump 21 (i.e., on the side away from the air intake apparatus 13), and the frac pump mount 24 is used for raising the frac pump 21 so that the frac pump 21 and the turbine engine 12 are aligned in the axial direction of the turbine engine 12, thereby improving the transmission efficiency.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, the fracturing apparatus 5 further comprises a bottom skid 6, and the power plant 1 and the pump plant 2 are mounted on the bottom skid 6 to be fixed.

In the example shown in fig. 1, the fracturing apparatus 5 is a skid mounted apparatus. However, the disclosed embodiments are not so limited. In other examples, the fracturing apparatus 5 may also be a truck-mounted apparatus or a semi-truck-mounted apparatus.

The power skid 51 and the pump skid 52 are provided with control circuits and circuit lines for the power unit 1 and the pump unit 2, respectively.

The disclosed embodiments are not limited in the form of the power and pump skid, for example, the power/pump skid may include only a base structure, or may include a base structure and an upwardly extending cage structure for further securing a device mounted on the base structure.

For example, the power skid 51 may be removably coupled to the pump skid 52 to facilitate transportation. The connection manner of the power sled 51 and the pump sled 52 is not limited in the embodiments of the disclosure, and for example, the two may be connected by a snap connection, a connection plate, or the like.

For example, the power sled 51 and the pump sled 52 may be connected by ear plates, and one of the power sled 51 and the pump sled 52 has a single ear plate and the other has a double ear plate, which are connected by a pin.

Fig. 7B shows a perspective view of the connection of the power skid and the pump skid, and fig. 7C shows a top view of the connection. As shown in fig. 7B, the power sled 51 has a single-lug plate 510, the pump sled 52 has a double-lug plate 520, the single-lug plate 510 is inserted into the double-lug plate 520, the pin holes of the two are aligned, and the pin 530 is inserted into the pin holes to connect the power sled and the pump sled.

For example, the fracturing apparatus 5 may further comprise an integral skid 53, and the power skid 51 and the pump skid 52 are respectively mounted on the integral skid 53 to be fixed. For example, the power skid 51 and the pump skid 52 are detachably connected to the integrated skid 53 for transportation.

Fig. 8A-8B are schematic diagrams of fracturing apparatuses provided in further embodiments of the present disclosure. Unlike the embodiment shown in fig. 7A, the power sled 51 includes an invertible mechanism 54, the invertible mechanism 54 being adapted to invert to a horizontal position to position the pump sled 52. For example, the pump skid 52 is detachably connected to the invertible mechanism 54, and when the fracturing equipment is to be transported, the pump skid 52 can be detached and the invertible mechanism 54 can be retracted; upon arrival at the job site, the invertible mechanism 54 is inverted to a horizontal position and the pump skid 52 is mounted on the invertible mechanism 54. Fig. 8A and 8B show schematic views of the invertible mechanism of the fracturing apparatus in a retracted state and an operating state, respectively. For example, the sound suppression compartment and turbine engine may be integrated into the power skid 51, and the fracturing pump may be integrated into the pump skid. For example, the invertible mechanism 54 may also serve to elevate the pump skid 52 so that the fracturing pump is aligned with the turbine engine along the axial direction of the turbine engine to improve transmission efficiency.

In at least one example, the turbine engine in the fracturing equipment is driven by fuel (such as natural gas), and other auxiliary power systems (such as power of various lubricating systems, cooling systems, cleaning devices, starting devices, braking mechanisms, speed reducing mechanisms, heat radiating devices and gas circuit systems) are all driven by electricity, so that the fracturing equipment has the advantages of compact structure, small volume and environmental protection while having high driving efficiency, and the power supply pressure of a fracturing operation site can be reduced.
