Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of engineering thermophysics, and particularly relates to a heat exchange device with auxiliary output. Background Art

[0002] A third medium can absorb heat and vaporize in a first medium, and cool the first medium with its huge phase change latent heat, so as to achieve the purpose of refrigeration. This refrigeration method does not require active refrigeration equipment such as compressors and condensers, has great heat absorption potential, and is convenient to operate. Due to many advantages, it is widely used in fields such as medical treatment, electronic processing, and new thermal control systems for lasers.

[0003] Traditional third-medium refrigeration uses air baths, water baths, and spray heat exchangers, that is, a metal pipe with the third medium flowing inside is immersed in the first medium, and heat transfer is carried out by relying on the convective heat transfer between the first medium and the pipe and between the pipe and the third medium, and the cold quantity is transferred to the first medium, thereby reducing the temperature of the first medium.

[0004] The heat transfer capacity of this heat exchange method is affected by many factors such as the convective heat transfer resistance between the first medium and the pipe, the heat conduction resistance of the pipe wall itself, and the convective heat transfer resistance between the pipe and the third medium. And during long-term use, local cold quantity concentration near the pipe wall leads to icing, which further deteriorates the convective heat transfer. At the same time, a large amount of mechanical energy generated during the gasification and expansion of the third medium is not utilized. The above-mentioned factors result in the effective utilization rate of the cold quantity of the third medium in the traditional heat exchanger being about half, causing relatively large energy waste.

[0044] Embodiment:

[0045] Please refer to Figures 1 to 2 , the heat exchange device with auxiliary output in the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 1, as Figure 1 shown, the housing 1 includes a receiving cavity that can accommodate the first medium 3 and the first medium 3 does not fill the receiving cavity. Correspondingly, a piston assembly 2, a gas-liquid injection assembly 4, a liquid injection assembly 5, a gas-liquid pumping and discharging assembly 6 and an energy output assembly 7 are also provided for the housing 1.

[0046] Among them, the piston assembly 2 includes a cylinder 201 and a piston 202, and the piston 202 can reciprocate within the cylinder 201. The cylinder 201 is preferably arranged at the top of the housing 1 and partially located inside the housing 1 and partially protruding from the housing 1, so that the overall device can save space and have better effects. Specifically, during implementation, the cylinder 201 is rigidly connected to the top of the housing 1.

[0047] Specifically, in the preferred embodiment, the gas-liquid injection assembly 4 includes a gas-liquid pump 401, a gas-liquid input pipeline 402 and a gas-liquid nozzle 403. The gas-liquid nozzle 403 is communicated with the cylinder 201. One end of the gas-liquid input pipeline 402 is connected to the gas-liquid pump 401, and the other end is connected to the gas-liquid nozzle 403. It can be understood that at this time, the gas-liquid pump 401 floats on the surface of the first medium 3, sucks the first medium 3 and the air inside the housing 1, and the first medium 2 and the air inside the housing 1 are mixed to form a second medium of gas-liquid mixture, and are transmitted to the gas-liquid nozzle 403 through the gas-liquid input pipeline 402. The gas-liquid nozzle 403 injects the first medium 3 and the air inside the housing 1 into the cylinder 201.

[0048] It can be understood that the "gas-liquid injection assembly 4" refers to an assembly that can inject the second medium into the cylinder 201.

[0049] Among them, the gas-liquid pump 401 mixes the air inside the housing 1 and the first medium 3 and can provide a driving force to drive the second medium to move in the gas-liquid input pipeline 402. The gas-liquid nozzle 403 can be a valve, which is usually closed when not in use. It is communicated with the cylinder 201 and is preferably arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 201.

[0050] Specifically, in the preferred embodiment, the liquid injection assembly 5 includes a third medium storage tank 501, a third medium pipeline 502, a high-pressure pump 503, and a third medium nozzle 504. The third medium nozzle 504 communicates with the cylinder 201. One end of the third medium pipeline 502 is connected to the third medium storage tank 501, and the other end is connected to the third medium nozzle 504. It can be understood that the high-pressure pump 503 extracts the third medium in the third medium storage tank 501 and transfers it to the third medium nozzle 504 through the third medium pipeline 502, and the third medium nozzle 504 injects the third medium into the cylinder 201.

[0051] Similarly, the "liquid injection assembly 4" refers to an assembly capable of injecting the third medium into the cylinder 201.

[0052] Among them, the first medium 3 is preferably a refrigerant, specifically a mixed solution of water and ethylene glycol. The third medium is preferably a cryogenic liquid, which is in a liquid state when stored in the third medium storage tank 501, preferably a cryogenic liquid with a boiling point lower than 120K under standard atmospheric pressure. Specifically, liquid nitrogen is used, which is safe and has good economy. And, the temperature of the second medium is greater than the vaporization temperature of the third medium.

[0053] More specifically, in the preferred embodiment, the third medium pipeline 502 needs to be insulated and withstand a certain internal pipe pressure. It is usually made of insulating material, specifically preferably made of stainless steel. The third medium nozzle 504 can also be a valve, which is usually closed when not in use. It communicates with the cylinder 201 and is preferably arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 201.

[0054] Further, in the preferred embodiment, the gas-liquid extraction and discharge assembly 6 includes a vacuum pump 601, a gas-liquid output pipeline 602, and a first exhaust hole 603. One end of the gas-liquid output pipeline 602 is connected to the vacuum pump 601, and the other end is provided with the first exhaust hole 603. The vacuum pump 601 can extract the gas formed after the vaporization of the first medium 3 and the third medium in the cylinder 201 from the cylinder 201 and discharge it into the accommodation cavity.

[0055] It can be understood that when the first medium 3 and the third medium meet in the cylinder 201, a heat exchange reaction occurs between the two. The third medium absorbs heat and vaporizes to generate gas. At this time, the vacuum pump 601 communicates with the cylinder 201 and extracts the first medium 3 and the gas in the cylinder 201, facilitating the subsequent reaction of the first medium 3 and the third medium in the cylinder 201. The first medium 3 and the gas are discharged into the housing 1 through the gas-liquid output pipeline 602 and the first exhaust hole 603.

[0056] Among them, the gas-liquid output pipeline 602 preferably has an inverted T-shaped structure, such as Figure 1As shown, the horizontal portion of the gas-liquid output pipeline 602 is placed at the bottom of the first medium 3, and a plurality of first exhaust holes 603 are provided thereon, which can return the low-temperature nitrogen gas and the low-temperature first medium 3 generated after the reaction in the cylinder 201 to the first medium 3 at the bottom of the housing 1. Similarly, the vacuum pump 601 can be a valve, which is usually closed when not in use. It is connected to the cylinder 201 and is preferably arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 201.

[0057] Obviously, in the preferred embodiment, a second exhaust hole 101 is provided on the housing 1, and the second exhaust hole 101 is connected to a recovery device or communicates with the external air. When a large amount of gas is generated again after the reaction between the first medium 3 and the low-temperature gas, in order to avoid increasing the air pressure inside the housing 1, the second exhaust hole 101 can enable the gas inside the housing 1 to be naturally discharged. Further, the second exhaust hole 101 can also be connected to a recovery device, which can recover the gas formed after the third medium vaporizes, and can be reused repeatedly after being processed, which is more environmentally friendly.

[0058] Moreover, in the preferred embodiment, the outside of the housing 1 is heat-insulated, and usually the heat-insulating layer is coated for heat insulation. The housing 1 is further sealed. When the housing 1 is designed for sealing and heat insulation, it can reduce the influence of the external environment on the internal environment of the housing 1 and further improve the overall heat exchange efficiency of the device. When the temperature inside the housing 1 reaches a certain level, heat exchange will no longer be carried out.

[0059] In addition, in the preferred embodiment, one end of the piston 202 is connected to the cylinder 201 in a matching manner, and the other end is connected to the energy output component 7. The first medium 3 and the third medium exchange heat in the cylinder 201, so that the third medium vaporizes and expands to push the piston 202 to move in the cylinder 201 and drive the energy output component 7 to move. Specifically, in the preferred embodiment, the energy output component 7 includes a crankshaft 701 and a connecting rod 702. The connecting rod 702 is connected to the piston 202, and the crankshaft 701 is connected to the connecting rod 702.

[0060] It can be understood that the heat exchange between the first medium 3 and the third medium in the cylinder 201 releases a large amount of energy, and at the same time makes the third medium vaporize and expand, which can push the piston 202 to move upward, drive the connecting rod 702 to move, and thus drive the crankshaft 701 to generate a rotational motion. Utilizing the expansion work of the third medium vaporizing after contacting the mixture of gas and the first medium 3 in the cylinder 201, the piston 202 is pushed to do a linear motion, and finally it is converted into the rotational torque of the crankshaft 701 through the energy output component 7, so as to do work externally.

[0061] Preferably, in the preferred embodiment, a support frame 102 is connected to the outside of the housing 1 for supporting the crankshaft 701. During specific implementation, the crankshaft 701 is connected to the support frame 102 by a shaft, which can enable the crankshaft 701 to work better.

[0062] More preferably, the heat exchange device with auxiliary output of the present invention further includes a host computer 8, and the host computer 8 controls the communication or closing between the gas-liquid injection assembly 4, the liquid injection assembly 5, the gas-liquid pumping and discharging assembly 6 and the cylinder 201. It can be understood that the host computer 8 can control the opening and closing of the gas-liquid nozzle 403, the third medium nozzle 504 and the vacuum pump 601 in real time, so as to make the heat exchange reaction process controllable. When the host computer 8 is specifically implemented, it can be a microcomputer, which can sense the rotation direction of the crankshaft 701 to control the opening and closing of the gas-liquid nozzle 403, the third medium nozzle 504 and the vacuum pump 601 in real time, so as to realize the cyclic operation of the device.

[0063] This device can be used as a vapor compression refrigeration device to dissipate heat for heat sources such as lasers. When specifically implemented, as Figure 2 shown, the inside of the cylinder 201 is mainly divided into four strokes, which are, from left to right: intake stroke, compression stroke, expansion stroke and exhaust stroke. The piston 202 moves in the cylinder 201 with the highest point above (hereinafter referred to as the "top dead center") and the lowest point below (hereinafter referred to as the "bottom dead center"). In the initial state, when the host computer 8 receives that the crankshaft 701 rotates to a position corresponding to the piston 202 at the bottom dead center, it issues an instruction to open the gas-liquid nozzle 403 and performs an intake stroke in the cylinder 201, that is, injects a gas-liquid mixture of gas and the first medium 3 into the cylinder 201. At this time, the piston 202 moves upward due to the inertial movement of the crankshaft 701 and the intake action. After the crankshaft 701 rotates half a turn, the host computer 8 issues an instruction to close the gas-liquid nozzle 403. Thereafter, a compression stroke is performed in the cylinder 201, and the crankshaft 701 continues to rotate half a turn, corresponding to the piston 202 returning to the bottom dead center, and at this time the gas in the cylinder 201 is compressed. Then, the host computer 8 sends an instruction to open and quickly close the third medium nozzle 504, so that a certain amount of the third medium is injected into the cylinder 201, fully contacts with the existing gas-liquid mixture of gas and the first medium 3, and absorbs heat and vaporizes and expands to do work. This process is the expansion stroke. During this process, a large amount of energy is provided for the piston 202 and the crankshaft 701, so that the crankshaft 701 can continue to move. After the crankshaft 701 rotates half a turn, the piston 202 is at the top dead center and the expansion stroke is completed. The host computer 8 issues an instruction to open the vacuum pump 601 to perform an exhaust stroke. After the crankshaft 701 continues to rotate half a turn, when the corresponding piston 202 returns to the bottom dead center, the gas-liquid mixture in the cylinder 201 is evacuated, and at this time an instruction is issued to close the vacuum pump 601. And so on in a cycle.

[0064] The auxiliary output heat exchange device in the present invention uses the heat exchange process between the first medium and the third medium for refrigeration, and uses the energy generated during the heat exchange process to do external work, avoiding the loss of energy generated during the heat exchange process, improving the utilization rate, and having good economic benefits. Moreover, the substances undergoing heat exchange are directly in contact in the cylinder, with high heat exchange efficiency and small losses. The heat exchange device has a simple structure, does not require an active refrigeration device, has low operating noise, and meets the development needs of miniaturization of refrigeration and heat exchange equipment. It is particularly suitable for large-scale applications in fields such as laser refrigeration, medical constant temperature water tanks, third medium vaporization, and power machinery.

[0065] It is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
