What are the application locations and selection levels of aluminum silicate blanket refractory insulation materials in power plants? Aluminum silicate blanket is widely used for thermal insulation of 400-1200 ℃ high-temperature equipment in power plants due to its high temperature resistance, low thermal conductivity, light weight, good flexibility, and thermal shock resistance. It is mostly used for inner high-temperature backing insulation and is often used in combination with rock wool and calcium silicate board. The ultra-high temperature of power plant steam turbines determines that the insulation material to be used must be high temperature resistant and not easily powdering. Aluminum silicate blanket is highly preferred for insulation materials in power plants due to its evaluation of its own characteristics;
Aluminum silicate blanket (ceramic fiber blanket) is widely used in power plants, covering almost all high-temperature areas from boilers to turbines, from main steam pipelines to flue systems. At present, the demand for insulation materials in power plants has shifted from traditional calcium silicate products to aluminum silicate fiber cotton products, especially the growth of aluminum silicate fiber blankets is particularly prominent.
The insulation layer thickness of the boiler furnace wall is usually 180-200mm, and the hot surface temperature is about 450 ℃. The inner insulation layer is made of 40-50mm aluminum silicate fiber blanket, with 2-3 layers of mineral wool products added. Aluminum silicate blanket should also be used for insulation treatment in high-temperature heating surface areas such as rear screen superheater, final stage superheater, and high-temperature reheater;
The surface temperature of the steam turbine cylinder can reach 550 ℃. The insulation thickness of the upper cylinder is 200mm, and the lower cylinder is 250mm as the standard. During construction, the adhesive method is used, with a mesh fixed in the middle and a mesh covering the surface. The upper part of the high and medium pressure outer cylinder is usually laid with seven layers of aluminum silicate needle punched blanket.
the total insulation thickness of main steam pipeline above DN500 can reach 260mm, and the composite structure of multi-layer aluminum silicate fiber blanket+nano aerogel blanket is adopted. High purity aluminum silicate blanket should be used for steam pipelines (540-600 ℃) in thermal power plants;
The lining of the high-temperature furnace flue gas pipeline uses aluminum silicate fiber blanket as the insulation layer. Aluminum silicate fiber felt can also be attached to the inner surface of the flue to increase the temperature of the hot air.
The high-temperature heating surface area inside the boiler large package box (such as the rear screen superheater, final stage superheater, and high-temperature reheater) needs to be insulated and remade with aluminum silicate blanket. Aluminum silicate fiber cotton is also commonly used for filling rigid beams, expansion joints, and sealing and plugging parts of boilers.

The amount of insulation materials required for steam turbines of different sizes and grades is not consistent;
