Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an end cover structure in a marine shell and tube condenser, in particular to a welded end cover suitable for a marine shell and tube condenser. Background Art

[0002] Shell and tube condensers are widely used in marine air conditioners, chillers and refrigeration units, and are important components of marine equipment. The tube-side fluid of the shell and tube condenser is generally seawater, and the shell-side fluid is generally air or refrigerant. At present, for shell and tube heat exchangers with seawater as the tube-side fluid, most of the end covers are cast as a whole with aluminum bronze (ZCuA19Mn2), and their structural design, production process and assembly level are relatively mature. After the end cover is cast, the oxide scale, sand inclusions, scars, burrs, etc. will be removed to ensure that the surface of the end cover is clean and smooth; the unprocessed surface of the end cover casting should not have cracks, cold insulation, sand holes that affect the strength, performance and life, and should not be deformed and damaged, and should not be welded; the end cover needs to be subjected to a water pressure strength test after processing, and the pressure holding time should not be less than 30 minutes, and there should be no leakage.

[0003] On board, the actual working environment of the shell and tube condenser has long-term pitch, long-term roll, pitch, roll, salt spray, impact and vibration, and the seawater itself is corrosive to a certain extent. The shell and tube condenser uses aluminum bronze (ZCuA19Mn2) cast end covers. Due to the possibility of cracks, cold shuts, sand holes and other problems, there are many unqualified end covers in the production process. If the finished end cover contains some very small cracks or sand holes, in the actual marine working environment, the seawater constantly vibrates and impacts the end cover, which will reduce the service life of the casting end cover. If the casting end cover is used for more than 5 years, small cracks or sand holes may evolve into large cracks and sand holes, which will cause the end cover to leak and be scrapped. At present, there have been cases of leakage in the end cover of marine shell and tube condensers. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the relevant support base will use the end cover as a spare part.

[0004] In summary, considering the end cover processing and production technology, harsh marine conditions, anti-corrosion and anti-leakage, maintenance space and service life requirements, it is necessary to develop a B30 welded end cover suitable for marine shell and tube condensers. Summary of the invention

[0005] Aiming at the actual marine working environment, anti-corrosion and anti-leakage, maintenance space and service life requirements, the present invention proposes a B30 welded end cover suitable for marine shell and tube condensers, the purpose of which is to shorten the end cover production time, reduce the scrap rate of the end cover, and improve the reliability and service life of the end cover.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is: a B30 welded end cover suitable for a marine shell and tube condenser, comprising a left end cover and a right end cover, both of which are made of B30 plates through cutting, folding, assembling and welding to form a left cover body and a right cover body; the left cover body is provided with a connecting pipe flange and an anti-corrosion block assembly, a rib plate is provided inside, baffles are provided on both sides, and a square flange is welded on the bottom; the right cover body is welded with an anti-corrosion block assembly and a welding seat, a rib plate is provided inside, baffles are provided on both sides, and a square flange is welded on the bottom.

[0007] Furthermore, the square flange is cut from a whole piece of B30 plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the rib plate is cut from the B30 plate and welded to the inner side of the cover body to form a compartment.

[0009] Furthermore, the baffle is cut from B30 plate and welded to both sides of the cover body.

[0010] Furthermore, grooves are reserved on the inner side of the flange for welding with the cover body, the rib plate and the baffle.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0012] The B30 welded end cover suitable for a marine shell and tube condenser proposed by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0013] (1) The end cover is cut, folded, assembled and welded with B30 plate. The production process is simpler than that of the cast end cover, the production time is shortened, and the scrap rate is reduced.

[0014] (2) After long-term use, if the B30 welded end cover has local leakage, it can be disassembled and repaired by welding. The operation is simple, the maintenance time is short, and the end cover can be reused.

[0015] (3) When replacing the anti-corrosion block, you can first open the drain valve of the shell and tube condenser to drain the seawater, and then replace the anti-corrosion block without removing the end cover, which is convenient for maintenance and operation.

[0016] (4) With mechanical structural sealing, the B30 welded end cover can be used stably for a long time, which improves the reliability and service life of the end cover. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
