Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of moistening a paper web comprising moistening the paper web by a moistening device by spraying wa ⁇ ter mist onto the paper web surface and by removing excess water mist from the moistening device.
- the invention further relates to a paper web moistening de ⁇ vice comprising a body, moistening nozzles and at least one means for remov- ing water, water mist or air from the moistening device.
- the paper web is moistened to control the paper web mois ⁇ ture profile, for instance. Moistening can also be used for managing the curling of the paper web in the paper machine. Furthermore, in online calendering, for example, the controlling of certain quality measures requires high-grade mois- tening with water.
- the moistening device is provided with several moistening nozzles in the cross direction of the paper web for blowing water mist contain ⁇ ing air and water onto the paper web surface.
- One moistening apparatus of this kind is disclosed in DE 952 765.
- Moistening devices exist where the above-mentioned mois ⁇ tening nozzles are arranged in several successive rows. The nozzles in suc ⁇ cessive rows may overlap with one another.
- a problem associated with mois ⁇ tening devices is how to achieve a sufficiently even moistening result.
- a mov ⁇ ing paper web carries air and air is also blown by the moistening nozzle. The air currents generated make the controlling of the moistening nozzle response difficult, i.e.
- the moistening device may cause the noz ⁇ zles at different points in the lateral direction to moisten the same point of the paper web, which results in too moist and too dry points in the paper web. Fu r- thermore, the controlling of the moistening nozzle response is so difficult that the adjustment of the moistening nozzles becomes very complicated.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved method of moistening a paper web and a paper web moistening de- vice.
- the method according to the invention is characterized in that the removal of water mist and/or air occurs closer to the paper web sur ⁇ face than the spraying of water mist.
- the paper web moistening device is further characterized in that the moistening device comprises a means that extends closer to the paper web surface than the moistening nozzles for re ⁇ moving water mist and/or air from the vicinity of the paper web surface.
- the basic idea of the invention is that several moistening nozzles are arranged in the body of the paper web moistening device. At least one means for removing water mist and/or air from the vicinity of the paper web surface is arranged between the moistening nozzles so that the means extends closer to the paper web than the moistening nozzle.
- the desired moisture profile can be achieved with a very high accu ⁇ racy. Furthermore, the detrimental effect of air currents on moisture nozzle re- sponses can be prevented, which facilitates the controlling of the moistening device.
- the means for removing water mist and/or air from the vicinity of the paper web surface is a discharge nozzle.
- the moistening device before the moistening nozzles, the moistening device comprises a slit nozzle having substantially the same width as the paper web for blowing air against the machine direction of the paper web to decrease the laminar air current travelling along with the paper web. The purpose of this is also to improve the moisture profile produced by the moistening device.
- the idea of a third embodiment is that the nip side of the moistening device is provided with a slit nozzle having substantially the same width as the paper web for blowing air in the direction opposite to the machine direction of the paper web to prevent water mist from spreading into the environment from the moistening device.
- air refers to any gas or gas mixture usable in moistening the paper web
- water refers to any liquid or liquid mixture suit ⁇ able for moistening the paper web.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic top view of the moistening device according to Figure 1.
- FIG. 1 illustrates a paper web moistening device where the body 1 is provided with moistening nozzles 2.
- the body 1 is a beam arranged in the cross direction of the paper web 3.
- the moistening device is arranged below the paper web 3.
- the paper web 3 moves in the direction of arrow A.
- the paper web 3 may be a paper or cardboard web already manufactured in a paper machine or a fibrous web in a paper machine or cardboard machine, still containing moisture that is to be removed in the paper machine.
- the moisten- ing device is typically arranged below the paper web 3, but if desired, it may also be mounted above the paper web 3 or both above and below the paper web.
- the particular purpose of the moistening device is to increase the mois ⁇ ture content of the paper web 3.
- Water mist is blown or sprayed by moistening nozzles 2 to- wards the paper web 3 surface, the water mist being typically a mixture of air and water.
- the cone-shaped water mist spray achieved by means of the mois ⁇ tening nozzle 2 is illustrated by arrows B in the accompanying drawing.
- the body 1 of the moistening device is provided with water discharge outlets 4, through which excess water mist or condensed water can exit from the space between the moistening device and the paper web 3.
- the water discharge outlets 4 are connected to discharge pipes, which are not shown in the figures.
- the discharge of water mist and water can be intensified by low pressure.
- the water discharge outlets 4 are located farther from the paper web 3 surface than the moistening nozzles 2.
- the moistening nozzles 2 are arranged in rows in the cross direction of the paper web 3. The moistening nozzles 2 in successive rows overlap, i.e. they are at different points in the lateral direction, as appears from Figure 2.
- a discharge nozzle 5 having substantially the same width as the paper web 3 is arranged between the second and the third row of moisten- ing nozzles.
- the discharge nozzle 5 is used for air suction as illustrated by ar ⁇ row C.
- the discharge nozzle 5 is connected to a discharge pipe, which is not shown in the figures.
- the generation of suction does not require a very great low pressure or low pressure is not necessarily needed at all, provided that air can be removed through the discharge nozzle 5, i.e. that the current is high enough for keeping the discharge nozzle 5 open.
- the dis ⁇ charge nozzle 5 removes excess water mist.
- the distance hi of the moistening nozzles 2 from the paper web 3 surface is typically 50 to 150 mm.
- the discharge nozzle is arranged closer to the paper web 3 surface than the moistening nozzles 2, in which case the distance h2 of the discharge nozzle 5 from the paper web 3 is smaller than the distance hi of the moistening nozzles 2 from the paper web 3.
- air currents caused by the movement of the paper web 3 and by the first and second rows of moistening nozzles can be absorbed by the discharge nozzle 5 without the air currents interfering with the operation of the moistening nozzles in the third and fourth rows of moistening nozzles.
- each moistening nozzle moistens only its own point in the paper web 3, which pro ⁇ vides a very even moistening result. Furthermore, the desired moistening pro- file can be achieved very accurately and relatively easily.
- the distance h2 of the discharge nozzle 5 from the paper web 3 is typically 10 to 15 mm. Preferably, this distance h2 is at most 50 mm. In any case, the distance h2 of the discharge nozzle 5 is smaller than the dis ⁇ tance hi of the moistening nozzles 2 from the paper web 3. Preferably, the distance h2 of the discharge nozzle 5 from the paper web 3 is at least 20 mm smaller than the distance hi of the moistening nozzles 2 from the paper web 3. Particularly preferably, the distance h2 of the discharge nozzle 5 from the pa ⁇ per web 3 is at least 50 mm smaller than the distance hi of the moistening nozzle 2 from the paper web 3.
- the dimension of the moistening device in the machine di ⁇ rection A of the paper web 3 may be 1 m, for example, when the moistening device comprises four successive nozzle rows as in the appended figures.
- the dimension of the moistening device in the machine direction A of the paper web may vary between 0.5 and 1.5 m, for example, and the number of successive- sive moistening nozzle rows may vary from two to ten, for instance.
- the mois ⁇ tening device naturally has the same width as the paper web 3 and the number of moistening nozzles depends on the paper web width 3, the shape of moistening nozzle responses and on the desired moistening efficiency.
- the front edge of the moistening device comprises a first slit nozzle 6 having the same width as the paper web 3.
- the first slit nozzle 6 blows air against the machine direction A of the paper web 3 in accordance with arrow D. The purpose of this blow is to remove the laminar air current car ⁇ ried along with the paper web 3 that interferes with the evenness of the mois ⁇ tening nozzle 2 sprays.
- the slit nozzle 6 has a planar surface that guides the air current D.
- the planar surface may be slightly curved so that the air current D curves in the direction of the curved surface.
- the nip side of the moistening device comprises a second slit nozzle 7.
- the second slit nozzle 7 has substantially the same width as the paper web 3.
- the second slit nozzle 7 also blows air against the machine direction of the paper web 3 in accordance with arrow E.
- the structure and operation of the slit nozzle 7 correspond to those of the first slit nozzle 6.
- the air current E blown by the second slit nozzle 7 is used to prevent the water mist from spreading into the environment from the moistening device.
- the machine line for fibrous web may comprise several suc ⁇ cessive moistening devices in the machine direction. At least one moistening device is provided with the structure according to the solution described here.
- the described solution can also be arranged in two successive moistening de ⁇ vices or, if desired, in more than two moistening devices and even in all mois ⁇ tening devices.
- the described moistening device is preferably utilized in mois ⁇ tening mechanical uncoated papers, such as SC paper.
- One preferred solution is to arrange the described moistening device in connection with a multi-roll calender or a multi-roll calender having two stacks of rolls.
- the moistening nozzles need not be arranged in rows in the cross direction of the paper web but they may be ar- ranged otherwise in the moistening device.
- the distance between the rows of the moistening nozzles arranged in rows may vary be- tween successive rows. Tests have shown that in the solution according to the appended figures, the two first moistening nozzle rows interfere with each other relatively little, and the result can be improved considerably by removing the air current from between the second and the third moistening nozzle row by the discharge nozzle 5.
- discharge nozzles 5 may be arranged between each moistening nozzle row or, if moistening nozzles are not ar ⁇ ranged in rows, discharge nozzles may be mounted between all moistening nozzles.
- the discharge nozzle 5 needs not necessarily have the same width as the paper web 3 but there may be several discharge nozzles 5 one after another in the lateral direction of the paper web 3.
- the dis ⁇ charge nozzle 5 may be a single pipe, in which case discharge nozzles can be arranged everywhere in the moistening device between the desired moistening nozzles 2.
- a row may be formed of the discharge nozzles 5 in the cross direction of the paper web 3, in which case there are discharge nozzles next to or at a distance from one another in a row, whose function corresponds to that of the discharge nozzle 5 provided with a slit, which has the same width as the paper web 3 and is illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.
- the means for removing water mist and/or air from the vicinity of the paper web 3 surface may be any structure arranged to extend closer to the paper web than the moistening noz ⁇ zle 2 and to remove air and/or water mist from the vicinity of the paper web 3 surface.
- this structure does not require a discharge pipe or suction, but the structure may be formed by a partition wall, beam, spoiler, air doctor or another similar structure.
- a tap or taps arranged next to one another or a plate or plates may function as the means for removing water mist and/or air.
- this structure enables removal of the interfering effect of air currents caused by the moistening nozzles and the movement of the paper web on the function of the other moistening nozzles.
- This function may be based, for example, on the fact that the current in the direction of the paper web 3 surface can be cut at a desired point and/or a current can be formed at a desired point in the direction away from the paper web surface for guiding excess air and/or water mist.
- the excess air and/or water mist or condensed water removed by them from the vicinity of the paper web can be first collected onto the surface of the moistening device, i.e. onto a "floor level" formed by it, and removed through water discharge outlets 4 arranged in the body 1 of the moistening device, for example.
