TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of cooling towers, and particularly relates to a mist-eliminating cooling tower. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the petroleum, chemical and other industries, there are widely built circulating water cooling systems. Most of the circulating water cooling systems use open cooling towers as the main cooling equipment. The traditional open cooling tower uses fillings to cool the circulating water. The circulating hot water from the process device enters the spraying system of the cooling tower, and then enters the fillings from top to bottom. The fillings are generally made of PVC sheets. When the water enters the fillings, it forms a water film along the PVC sheets. The dry and cold air from outside enters the fillings from bottom to top, exchanges heat with the water film, and the water film evaporates to reduce temperature. The wet and hot air is formed after the dry and cold air is heated and humidified. A fan is installed at the top of the cooling tower to discharge the wet and hot air outside the tower. The circulating hot water is cooled to become circulating cold water. Since the wet and hot air discharged outside the tower has high humidity and temperature, when the ambient temperature is low, the wet and hot air discharged outside the tower mixes with the cold air, and due to cooling and condensation, a mist group containing many small liquid particles is formed. Since the mechanical ventilation cooling tower has a low height, the mist group affects the visibility of the surrounding residential areas and traffic roads, destroys the city landscape, and causes the humidity of the downwind area to rise. With the increasing attention to environmental protection, the mist elimination of the mechanical ventilation cooling tower is also becoming more and more important.
[0003] CN201410005579.0 discloses a deep condensation mist-eliminating environmental protection device. The patent mist-eliminating environmental protection device comprises a tower body, a filling, a water spraying device, a water collector, and a heat exchange device are sequentially arranged in the tower body from bottom to top, an air outlet is arranged at the top of the tower body, a fan is installed in the air outlet, a transition section gas chamber is arranged between the heat exchange device and the air outlet in the tower body. In the above scheme, when working, the hot circulating cooling water sprayed by the water spraying device is cooled by the cold air entering the lower part of the cooling tower, and the temperature of the circulating cooling water is reduced. The temperature of the cold air in the fillings is increased, and the humidity is increased to form wet and hot air in a substantially saturated state. The wet and hot air enters the hot air channel after the water collector, and then enters the heat exchange device to exchange heat with the dry and cold air entering the heat exchange device through the cold air channel. After the heat exchange device, the wet and hot air and the dry and cold air are mixed in the transition section gas chamber and discharged into the atmosphere by the fan.
[0004] The main problems with the aforementioned patented technology are as follows: 1. The heat exchange device within the defogging environmental protection device is the main defogging facility. This heat exchange device is equipped with a diamond-shaped defogging packing assembly. The high operating speed of the cold and hot air within the packing assembly is 1.414 times the average wind speed of the cooling tower cross-section, resulting in high operating resistance and affecting the overall performance of the cooling tower. 2. Under certain pressure drop requirements, the heat exchange area of the heat exchange device within the defogging environmental protection device is limited, resulting in low heat exchange efficiency and poor water-saving effect. 3. The bottom triangular support of the defogging packing assembly in the heat exchange device has low strength, and there is cross-contamination between the cold and hot air on both sides, requiring fully enclosed installation, which increases encapsulation and installation costs. 4. The defogging packing assembly in the heat exchange device is composed of heat exchange plates, which are thin-film structures. The defogging packing assembly is large in size and has low structural strength, making it difficult to install large-sized defogging packing. 5. The fog-eliminating and environmental protection device is equipped with a water collector. An air damper is installed above the water collector. At least one air damper rotation radius is reserved between the air damper and the water collector, resulting in a high tower height and high cost. Summary of the Invention

[0024] Further, each of the mist-eliminating filler units is formed by bonding together several heat exchange sheets. The mist-eliminating filler units can be packaged using conventional techniques in the art, such as using FRP or stainless steel profiles to connect the units at the corners to form a cage structure, and the water-saving mist-eliminating filler is fixed in the cage structure. In the present application, the following packaging structure is recommended: the triangular top corners of the heat exchange sheets are bonded together by fold surfaces A and B, and a triangular strip is bonded to the surfaces (or the outer surfaces) of the fold surfaces A and B; the fold surfaces A and B are long fold strips that are alternately bent in different directions and have a certain width, and the included angle of the triangular strip is the same as the angle of the triangular top corner. The fold surfaces A and B separately close the hot air inlet or the cold air inlet, which prevents the mixing of the hot and humid air and the cold air at the triangular position, and prevents the condensate water in the hot air passage from flowing into the cold air passage.
[0025] According to a second aspect of the present application, a water-saving mist-eliminating cooling tower is provided, which comprises a mist-eliminating filler layer formed by the mist-eliminating filler units described above.
[0026] A water-saving mist-eliminating cooling tower comprises a tower body, a water-spraying filler air inlet provided at the lower part of the tower body, a water-spraying filler provided above the water-spraying filler air inlet, a spraying unit provided above the water-spraying filler, a damper and a mist-eliminating passage provided above the spraying unit, a mist-eliminating filler layer provided at the upper end of the damper and the mist-eliminating passage, and an air outlet provided at the upper end of the mist-eliminating filler layer; the mist-eliminating filler layer is formed by a plurality of the mist-eliminating filler units described above.
[0027] Further, the mist-eliminating passage comprises a partition and a damper. The partition divides the mist-eliminating passage system into a cold air passage and a hot and humid air passage. The cold air passage is connected to a louver provided at the side wall of the water-saving mist-eliminating cooling tower.
[0028] Further, the hot and humid air passage and the cold air passage are formed by the partition. The hot and humid air passage and the cold air passage are not mixed with each other. The upper end of the partition is connected to and closes the triangular bottom corner of the lower part of the mist-eliminating filler group, the lower end of the adjacent partition is provided with a damper at intervals, and the lower end of the partition is connected to the side of the damper. The partition, the damper and the mist-eliminating filler layer form the cold air passage (the damper is kept in a closed state, i.e. in a horizontal position), and the hot and humid air in the cooling tower cannot enter. At this time, the cold air passage can only enter through the louver provided on the side wall of the cooling tower.
[0029] Further, the air door comprises a square rotating shaft, a rotating baffle and a fixed rod, and the square rotating shaft is supported by a square sliding bearing. The square rotating shaft has a large section moment of inertia and a strong bearing capacity, so that a small section rectangular rotating shaft can be used to reduce air resistance. The rotating baffle can rotate along the square rotating shaft. The rotating baffle is composed of a base plate, and the base plate is provided with a central convex groove and a reinforcing convex groove.
[0030] Further, the rotating baffle is preferably integrally formed. The rotating baffle is preferably made of FRP material, and the square sliding bearing is preferably made of PE material.
[0031] Further, the circulating hot water spraying system is composed of a circulating hot water spraying head.
[0032] According to a third aspect of the present application, the present application also provides a fog elimination cooling method, wherein the above-mentioned fog elimination cooling tower is applied.
[0033] The water-saving fog elimination tower of the present application utilizes cold air in the cold season to perform wall heat exchange with the wet hot air on the water spraying filler through the heat exchange fins in the water-saving fog elimination filler, so that the wet hot air is condensed, the condensed water is captured and recycled by the water collecting and baffle combining surface (i.e. multiple baffle surfaces and liquid film surfaces) on the heat exchange fins, the dry cold air from the outside is heated and the temperature is raised. Finally, the wet hot air and the dry cold air in the water-saving fog elimination filler are mixed to become unsaturated exhaust gas, which is discharged out of the tower through the fan, so as to achieve the purpose of water saving and fog elimination.
[0034] According to different operation time and operation load of the water-saving fog elimination tower, the water-saving fog elimination cooling tower of the present application can be divided into a water-saving fog elimination mode and a heat mode. In the water-saving fog elimination mode, the air door is closed, the louvers are opened, the cold air channel is communicated with the louvers, a part of the outside cold air is directly introduced into the water-saving fog elimination filler unit in the tower, and the cooling tower realizes water saving and fog elimination. In the heat mode, the air door is opened, the louvers are closed, and the outside (introduced through the water spraying filler air inlet) cold air passes through the water spraying filler, so that the cooling tower has the maximum circulating water cooling capacity.
[0035] The water-saving and mist-eliminating operation mode is as follows: the circulating hot water is uniformly sprayed on the water-spraying filler through the circulating hot water spraying head, the dry and cold air from outside enters into the water-spraying filler air inlet at the lower part of the tower body under the driving of the fan, flows upwards through the water-spraying filler, and is in countercurrent contact with the circulating hot water sprayed downwards above the water-spraying filler, so that mass and heat transfer is realized on the surface of the water-spraying filler, the circulating hot water is cooled, and enters into the water collecting pool below the water-spraying filler; the dry and cold air from outside passing through the water-spraying filler is heated, becomes saturated wet hot air, and leaves the water-spraying filler to enter into the wet hot air channel, and then enters into the mist-eliminating filler hot channel through the wet hot air channel. The cold air channel composed of the baffle and the air door, under the suction of the fan, the dry and cold air from outside enters into the cold air channel through the louver, and then enters into the cold channel of the mist-eliminating filler. Inside the mist-eliminating filler, the airflow first passes through the baffle structure, the water droplets in the airflow are collected under the action of inertial force and return to the tower by gravity, and the airflow further enters into the heat exchange sheet, the cold channel and the hot channel of the mist-eliminating filler are arranged alternately, the heat exchange sheet is used for wall heat transfer, the wet hot air is cooled, and the dry and cold air is heated. The liquid droplets condensed from the wet hot air are captured by the capturing surface and collected by the water collecting groove, flow down along the guide groove in the heat exchange sheet, and finally enter into the water collecting pool. The dry and cold air after being heated and the wet hot air after being condensed are mixed together after leaving the mist-eliminating filler, become unsaturated gas, and are discharged from the cooling tower by the fan.
[0036] The heat force operation mode is as follows: the cooling tower does not need to eliminate mist in summer, and the cooling tower needs to have the maximum cooling capacity when the cooling tower has high load in summer, and the heat force operation mode is as follows: the circulating hot water is uniformly sprayed on the water-spraying filler through the circulating hot water spraying head, the dry and cold air from outside enters into the tower body at the lower part under the driving of the fan, flows upwards through the water-spraying filler, and is in countercurrent contact with the circulating hot water sprayed downwards above the water-spraying filler, so that mass and heat transfer is realized on the surface of the water-spraying filler, the circulating hot water is cooled, and enters into the water collecting pool below the water-spraying filler; the dry and cold air from outside passing through the water-spraying filler is heated, becomes saturated wet hot air, and leaves the water-spraying filler to enter into the mist-eliminating channel. The air door of the mist-eliminating channel rotates to the vertical state around the rotating shaft, and the louver connected with the cold air channel is in the closed state, so that the wet hot air from the water-spraying filler enters into the mist-eliminating filler through the cold air channel and the wet hot air channel of the mist-eliminating channel, and the cold channel and the hot channel of the mist-eliminating filler are all used for the wet hot air. The wet hot air carries many liquid small water droplets, and the water droplets are collected through the baffle structure in the flow of the cold channel and the hot channel of the mist-eliminating filler, the wet hot air leaving the mist-eliminating filler is discharged from the cooling tower by the fan.
[0037] Compared with the prior art, the mist-eliminating filler and the water-saving and mist-eliminating cooling tower have the following beneficial effects:
[0038] 1. The mist elimination packing unit of the present application, the lower triangular shape of the heat exchange sheet is provided with a baffle structure, which can greatly increase the overall structural strength of the mist elimination packing on the one hand; on the other hand, when the wet hot air passes through the baffle structure, the tiny water droplets carried by the wet hot air strike the baffle structure, and the tiny liquid droplets are captured by the baffle under the action of inertial force and flow back to the tower by gravity. Preferably, a plurality of baffle surfaces are arranged on the heat exchange sheet of the mist elimination packing unit, the baffle surfaces are used to capture the liquid droplets carried in the gas flow, so that the liquid droplets are captured and flow to the water collecting tank after impacting on the baffle surfaces by inertia; part of the water flow in the water collecting tank can flow downward through the guide grooves at both ends, and the other part flows downward in the form of liquid film along the liquid film surface of the lower side wall of the water collecting tank, and together with the liquid droplets captured on the next baffle surface, enters the water collecting tank at the bottom end of the next baffle surface, to realize the collection and water collection of the liquid droplets and liquid film. The mist elimination packing unit of the present application can collect the condensate water adhered on the heat exchange sheet and guide it out, and the plurality of baffle surfaces and water collecting tanks also help to reduce the thickness of the liquid film, promote heat transfer, and enhance the water saving and mist elimination capacity. Therefore, the mist elimination packing unit of the present application has better water collecting and mist elimination effect, and the water saving and mist elimination tower containing the mist elimination packing unit of the present application can cancel the water collector layer of the traditional cooling tower.
[0039] 2. The water saving and mist elimination cooling tower of the present application, since the mist elimination packing has a significant water collecting function, the cooling tower can cancel the setting of the traditional water collector, the air door rotation space is sufficient, and the overall height of the tower can be reduced by 1-2 meters compared with the conventional technology.
[0040] 3. The water saving and mist elimination cooling tower of the present application, the wet hot air and the cold air enter the inside of the mist elimination packing unit through the air inlets on both sides of the lower triangular structure of the mist elimination packing. When the air initially enters the mist elimination packing, since the cold and hot channels are spaced apart from each other, the actual inlet area of the side surface of the lower triangular area of the mist elimination packing unit is reduced by half, the initial air speed entering the packing is equivalent to 1.4 times the tower cross section wind speed (for example, taking the right angle of the triangular top as the example), when the air enters the upper structure of the mist elimination packing through the cold and hot channels, the gas flow rate is reduced to the same as the tower cross section wind speed, and the pressure drop of the mist elimination packing unit and the mist elimination packing layer is only about 50% of the traditional technology.
[0041] 4. The water saving and mist elimination cooling tower of the present application, after the air enters the mist elimination packing, it finally leaves through the horizontal outlet at the top of the rectangular structure. Since the top horizontal outlet cold and hot channels are arranged at intervals, the air can be quickly and uniformly mixed after leaving the mist elimination packing through the top horizontal outlet cold and hot channels, the upper part of the water saving and mist elimination tower does not need additional mixing space, and the tower body height can be further reduced.
[0042] 5. The water saving and mist elimination cooling tower of the present application, the triangular shape bottom corner of the mist elimination packing unit is packaged by the baffle A, the baffle B and the triangular strip, which has high packaging strength and good sealing performance, can prevent the cold and hot air from mixing at this position, prevent the condensate water from entering the cold air channel, and is easy to install and construct.
[0043] 6、The fog elimination passage is provided with a rotary baffle of a damper, the rotary baffle of the damper is located in a vertical position in summer, the louvers are closed, and the hot and humid air is discharged from the cooling tower through the fog elimination filler cold and hot passages; the rotary baffle of the damper is located in a horizontal position in winter, the louvers are opened, the dry and cold air enters the fog elimination filler cold passage through the cold air passage, and the hot and humid air enters the fog elimination filler hot passage through the hot and humid air passage. The fog elimination cooling tower comprises two modes of water-saving fog elimination operation and heat operation, can meet the requirements of different seasons, and has the characteristics of flexible operation.
[0044] 7、The water-saving fog elimination cooling tower of the application, the fog elimination filler layer is formed by the side surfaces of a plurality of fog elimination filler units abutting each other. The installation cost of the fog elimination filler layer is low, and the fog elimination filler does not need to be integrally packaged, so that the cost of the whole tower is low.
[0045] 8、The water-saving fog elimination cooling tower of the application, the damper adopts a rectangular shaft, the rectangular shaft has a large inertia moment of section, and has strong bearing capacity, so that small-diameter shafts can be used, and the resistance of the damper in the cooling tower is reduced.

[0062] The hot aisle air inlet 39 and the cold aisle air inlet 42 (i.e., the openings formed by the alternating oblique sealing surfaces 38 surrounding the opposite sides of the lower triangle of adjacent heat exchange plates 19) are spaced apart, and the other side of the triangle opposite to the hot aisle air inlet 39 and the cold aisle air inlet 42 is closed by the oblique sealing surface 37. The cold aisle 14 and the hot aisle 18 are spaced apart and do not intersect each other.
[0063] like Figure 1 As shown, the hot aisle air inlet and the cold aisle air inlet are located inside the hot and humid air aisle 13 and the cold air aisle 12 of the cooling tower, respectively.
[0064] The heat exchange plate 19 can be pentagonal, meaning the upper part of the two vertical sides is a horizontal side. Alternatively, the heat exchange plate can be hexagonal, meaning the upper part of the two vertical sides is also connected to a triangular structure.
[0065] The triangular portion of the heat exchanger 19 has a baffle structure 16 with a raised or grooved cross-section along and close to the hypotenuse. The cross-sectional shape of the raised or grooved section can be a suitable shape such as a triangle, rectangle, semicircle, or trapezoid.

[0066] Each heat exchanger fin 19 includes: a plurality of baffle surfaces 36, each baffle surface having a water collection trough 34 at its bottom end; and a liquid film surface 35 extending vertically downward along the lower side wall of the water collection trough. The baffle surface 36 is a plane with a certain inclination angle, the inclination angle being 0 to 90°, preferably 30 to 60°.
[0067] Furthermore, a guide channel 33 is also provided on the heat exchange plate 19.

Facets A and B are long, bent strips with a certain width and alternating bends. The included angle of the triangular strips is the same as the angle of the apex of the triangle. Facets A and B respectively seal the opening area where the hot aisle air inlet or cold aisle air inlet connects to the bottom corner 17 of the triangle shape, which can prevent the cross-contamination of hot and humid air and cold air at the triangular position and prevent condensate from flowing from the hot aisle to the cold aisle.

[0079] The process of the mist eliminating operation mode of the water-saving and mist eliminating cooling tower is as follows:
[0080] The circulating hot water is sprayed on the water spraying filler 9 by the circulating hot water spraying unit 8, and the dry and cold air from outside is brought into the lower part of the tower by the fan 2, and flows upward through the water spraying filler 9, and contacts with the circulating hot water sprayed from above the water spraying filler 9, and mass and heat transfer on the surface of the water spraying filler 9, and the circulating hot water is cooled, and falls into the water collecting pool below the water spraying filler 9, and the dry and cold air from outside is heated and becomes saturated wet and hot air, and leaves the water spraying filler 9, and enters the wet and hot air channel 13, and enters the hot channel 18 of the mist eliminating filler 4 through the wet and hot air channel 13. The dampers 6 are closed, and the louvers are opened, and the cold air channel 12 composed of the partition 5 and the dampers 6 is connected with the louvers 11, and the dry and cold air from outside enters the cold air channel 12 through the louvers 11, and then enters the cold channel 14 of the mist eliminating filler 4. In the mist eliminating filler 4, the air flow first passes through the baffle structure 16, and the water droplets in the air flow are collected under the action of the inertial force and return to the tower by gravity, and the air flow further enters the mist eliminating filler 4, and the air flow is uniformly distributed in the mist eliminating filler 4, and the cold channel 14 and the hot channel 18 are arranged alternately, and the heat transfer occurs through the heat transfer sheet 19, and the wet and hot air is cooled, and the dry and cold air is heated. The liquid droplets condensed from the wet and hot air are captured by the baffle surface 36 and collected by the water collecting groove 34, and flow down along the guide groove 33 in the heat transfer sheet 19 and finally enter the water collecting pool below the inlet of the cooling tower. The dry and cold air after being heated and the wet and hot air after being condensed are mixed together and become unsaturated air, and are discharged from the cooling tower by the fan 2.
