[0035] The installation process of dual-medium and single-medium heat exchange plate heat exchanger equipment in this application:

[0036] Instructions attached Figure 7 Example Description

[0037] The front end of the equipment is a fixed plate, and the rear end is a movable plate, and plates and sealing pads are alternately installed between the fixed plate and the movable plate.

[0038] The first sealing pad is installed on the first plate, the second sealing pad is installed on the second plate, and so on. The first sealing pad is installed on the odd-numbered plates, and the second sealing pad is installed on the even-numbered plates. The even-numbered plates are obtained by rotating the odd-numbered plates 180° in the same plane (i.e., rotating them upside down). An intermediate sealing groove is provided between the second guide area and the third guide area of ​​the plate, which is sealed by the intermediate sealing area of ​​the first sealing pad. The second sealing pad does not seal the sealing area between the second guide area and the third guide area. The first sealing pad is sandwiched between the odd-numbered plates and the even-numbered plates, and the first medium flow channel is formed in the upper part and the second medium flow channel is formed in the lower part. The first and second medium flow channels are completely isolated by the first sealing pad and will not mix. The second sealing pad is sandwiched between the even-numbered plates and the odd-numbered plates to form a third medium flow channel. The third medium flow channel is completely connected, and the third medium exchanges heat with the first and second media in turn.

[0039] Install the plates with sealing pads on the beams between the fixed plate and the movable plate in order, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first medium flow channel and the second medium flow channel are between the first plate and the second plate, the third medium flow channel is between the second plate and the third plate, and so on.

[0040] Connect the first and fourth inlet and outlet of the fixed plate of the equipment to the cold and hot ends of the first medium respectively, connect the third and sixth inlet and outlet of the fixed plate to the cold and hot ends of the second medium respectively, and connect the fifth and second inlet and outlet of the fixed plate to the cold and hot ends of the third medium respectively.

[0041] The working process of the dual-medium and single-medium heat exchange plate heat exchanger equipment in this application:

[0042] When the equipment is running, the first medium enters the equipment through the first inlet and outlet of the fixed plate, then enters between the plates through the first corner hole of the plate (the sixth corner hole of the next plate), flows downward, and flows through the first guide area, the first heat exchange area, and the second guide area in turn, and then flows out of the equipment through the fourth corner hole of the plate (the third corner hole of the next plate) and the fourth inlet and outlet of the fixed plate.

[0043] The second medium enters the equipment through the third inlet and outlet of the fixed plate, and then enters the second heat exchange area between the plates through the third corner hole of the plate (the fourth corner hole of the next plate), flows downward, and flows through the third guide area, the second heat exchange area and the fourth guide area in turn, and then flows out of the equipment through the sixth corner hole of the plate (the first corner hole of the next plate) and the sixth inlet and outlet of the fixed plate.

[0044] The two media on the first and second medium flow channels flow independently without mixing.

[0045] The third medium enters the device through the fifth inlet and outlet of the fixed plate, and then enters the third medium flow channel through the fifth corner hole of the plate (the second corner hole of the next plate), flows upward, and flows through the fourth guide area, the second heat exchange area, and the third guide area in sequence, and exchanges heat with the second medium in this process. The third medium continues to flow upward, flows through the second guide area, the first heat exchange area, and the first guide area in sequence, and exchanges heat with the first medium on the first medium flow channel side in this process, and then flows out of the device through the second corner hole of the plate (the fifth corner hole of the next plate) and the second inlet and outlet of the fixed plate.

[0046] Due to the special design of this equipment, the media in the first and second medium flow channels and the third medium flow channel do not directly contact each other. The first and second media do not contact each other. The third medium exchanges heat with the second medium in the lower part of the flow channel and exchanges heat with the first medium in the upper part of the flow channel. Its function is equivalent to two heat exchangers running in series, but it is cheaper and more convenient to use than two heat exchangers in series.

[0047] Note: The directional words "up", "down", "left" and "right" in the description of the fixing plate in this application are Figure 2 The orientation is described as standard.

[0048] In the description of the plate structure in this application, the directional words "up", "down", "left" and "right" are used as the Figure 3 The orientation is as described in the standard.

[0049] In the description of the sealing gasket in this application, the directional words "up", "down", "left" and "right" are used in the following manner: Figure 4 , 5 The orientation is as described in the standard.

[0050] The above schematically describes the present invention and its implementation methods, which are not restrictive. The drawings show only one implementation method of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if a person skilled in the art is inspired by it and does not deviate from the technical solution of the present invention, and designs a structure and implementation similar to the technical solution based on the above implementation examples without creativity according to the technical essence of the present invention, they should all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
