Problems solved by technology

However, under normal circumstances, the heat transfer coefficient of polymer materials is about 100-300 times lower than that of metal materials in metal heat exchangers.
Although the plastic tube heat exchanger currently used in the market overcomes the shortcoming of the metal heat exchanger being easy to corrode, its heat transfer coefficient and heat exchange efficiency are small due to its large internal and external diameter and thickness.

Abstract

The invention relates to a hollow fiber heat exchanger, which comprises hollow fiber, a component enclosure, and a flow rate distribution system. Structurally, the hollow fiber heat exchanger has parallel counter current and cross current two basis modes. In the components of different modes of heat exchanger, the hollow fiber is parallelly and uniformly arranged in the enclosure of component, the two ends of the hollow fiber is fixed in the component enclosure by binder, and the two ends of the component enclosure are respectively connected with a tail cap with fluid inlet / outlet port. The inventive heat exchanger is suitable for heat exchange between gas, steam and liquid system, and has the advantages of high overall heat transfer coefficient, salinity tolerance, acid resistance, alkali resistance, low volume, light weight, easy production, low production cost, and broad application range.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a heat exchange device, in particular to a hollow fiber heat exchanger. Background technique [0002] Most of the liquid-liquid, liquid-gas, gas-gas, liquid-vapor, and gas-vapor heat exchange devices currently used in industry are made of metal. The advantage is that the metal materials used generally have high heat transfer coefficient and high temperature resistance. The disadvantage is that most metals have poor corrosion resistance, large equipment and expensive manufacturing costs. In comparison, polymer materials have certain advantages, such as: good corrosion resistance, easy processing, light weight (about 4-5 times lighter than metal) and cheap price. However, in general, the heat transfer coefficient of polymer materials is about 100-300 times lower than that of metal materials in metal heat exchangers. Although the plastic tube heat exchanger currently used in the market overcomes the shortcoming of the metal heat...
