Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of cylinder longitudinal seam assembly fixtures, and in particular relates to a measuring unit and method for measuring the heat exchange efficiency of various falling film heads. Background Art
[0002] Film evaporation is to add the feed liquid from the upper tube box of the falling film evaporator heating chamber, and evenly distribute it to each heat exchange tube through the liquid distribution and film forming device (the film forming device is our falling film head). Under the action of gravity, vacuum induction and airflow, it flows from top to bottom in a uniform film. During the flow process, it is heated and vaporized by the shell side heating medium, and the generated steam and liquid phase enter the separation chamber of the evaporator together. After the vapor and liquid are fully separated, the steam enters the condenser for condensation, and the liquid phase is discharged from the separation chamber. There is a direct connection between the heat transfer efficiency of the falling film evaporator and the falling film head. The heat transfer coefficients of the falling film heads we use now are calculated based on theory. There is a large deviation between the calculation and the actual situation. Sometimes, in order to achieve the process goals, we can only enlarge the margin, resulting in a large increase in production costs. If we can accurately measure the heat transfer coefficient, we can calculate the heat exchange area that just meets the needs, which can greatly reduce our equipment costs. Therefore, we need a method to measure the heat transfer efficiency of the falling film head. The falling film evaporator is available, but there is currently no unit system specifically used to measure the heat transfer efficiency of the falling film head. To make the falling film evaporator run, it is nothing more than providing a heat source and a cold source. However, the heat source used in the current production process is a steam generator, and the temperature of this source is 120 degrees, which is fixed. The cold water is generated by a cooling tower, and the temperature of the source is 25°C, which is also fixed. The temperature of the heat source and cold source generated is single, which cannot meet the measurement needs and cannot verify the accuracy of the test results. Summary of the invention

[0006] A measurement method comprises measuring the heat exchange efficiency of different falling film heads by using the measuring unit for measuring the heat exchange efficiency of various falling film heads. During the measurement, hot water at a set temperature and cold water at a set temperature are generated by a cold source heat source module. The hot water at the set temperature and the cold water at the set temperature include multiple types, and the hot water and the cold water are used as the heat source and the cold source of the falling film evaporation module respectively.

The hot water and the cold water are used as the heat source and the cold source of the falling film evaporation module respectively. Meanwhile, the amount of the cold source heat source generated by the heat source heat source generating module is greater than the amount of the cold source heat source required by the falling film evaporation module. When sufficient energy is introduced into the falling film evaporation module, the evaporation amount of the falling film evaporator 18 per hour is measured, including the evaporation amount of the falling film evaporator 18 without a falling film head, with a falling film head, and with different falling film heads.
