Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat exchange, in particular to a drying tower heat exchange system and a drying tower system. Background Art
[0002] During the milk powder processing, the main heater of the milk powder spraying tower generally uses 15barg-17bar high-pressure steam heating to heat the outdoor air to 150℃~195℃, thereby drying the milk powder.
[0003] In the related technology, when the steam heat exchanger is heated, the temperature difference between the steam and the outside air is very large, which will quickly generate condensed water. However, due to the limitations of the heat exchange system, the condensed water needs to flow back to the liquid heat exchanger to further heat the air. This will cause the condensed water to drain poorly, that is, it is difficult to enter the liquid heat exchanger. The condensed water stays in the steam heat exchanger for a long time and is prone to water hammer, which can easily lead to frequent damage to the steam heater. In addition, steam is also prone to leak from the damaged part of the steam heat exchanger into the drying tower system, thereby seriously affecting the drying operation efficiency and parameter stability. The generated metal debris will also enter the drying tower and the product, causing market customer complaints. Utility Model Content

[0039] In the description of the present utility model, it needs to be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.
[0040] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.
[0041] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. If not otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0042] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes.
