Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of phase change heat transfer, and in particular to a high-temperature heat pipe operating device and method for waste recovery. Background Art

[0002] A heat pipe is a passive heat transfer element with extremely high heat transfer efficiency. It achieves heat transfer by relying on the flow of working fluid and phase change in the pipe under the action of gravity, capillary force, etc. A high-temperature heat pipe refers to a heat pipe whose working medium is alkali metal and whose working temperature is above 500°C. High-temperature heat pipes are widely used in aerospace, nuclear engineering, petrochemical and other fields due to their excellent and stable heat transfer performance. Since high-temperature heat pipes have high working temperatures and harsh working environments, experimental research on the operating stability, material compatibility and life of high-temperature heat pipes is extremely important.

[0003] Long-term experimental operation of high-temperature heat pipes is an important means to test the stability of heat pipes, study the corrosion mechanism of heat pipes, and predict the life of heat pipes. The long-term operation device and method of high-temperature heat pipes with efficient waste recovery can realize the long-term operation experiment of heat pipes. At present, the experimental device of high-temperature heat pipes, for example, a heat pipe performance detection device proposed in the prior art CN202420244219.5, can be used to test the heat transfer performance of heat pipes, but the heat pipe performance detection device of the prior art is only for a single heat pipe, and it is impossible to test multiple heat pipes at the same time. Moreover, although a heat transfer performance test device proposed in the prior art CN202310471777.5 can be used for a heat transfer performance test device based on different horizontal inclination angles of high-temperature heat pipes with a large aspect ratio, the device can only perform a short-term heat transfer performance test on a single heat pipe, and cannot detect the working performance of high-temperature heat pipes under long-term operation with an operating time of more than 5000h. Based on the above, it can be seen that most of the experimental devices in the prior art can only perform short-term heat transfer performance tests on a single high-temperature heat pipe, and it is difficult to meet the demand of long-term operation of multiple high-temperature heat pipes for more than 5000 hours at the same time. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a high-temperature heat pipe operation device and method for waste recovery.

[0005] The high-temperature heat pipe operation device and method for waste recovery of the present invention are realized by the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present invention takes into account that during the high-temperature heat pipe experiment, it is necessary to provide a heat source and a cold source to simulate the working conditions of the heat pipe when it is actually used, especially in the long-term operation experiment of the high-temperature heat pipe of more than 5000 hours, the heat source and the cold source need to consume a lot of energy. The room temperature cooling medium used to transfer heat needs to be heated to a certain temperature before it can be used for heat pipe cooling, otherwise the heat pipe will not be able to start. The cooling medium flowing through the heat pipe contains extremely high heat due to being heated by the heat pipe, and the heat carried by the cooling medium flowing through the condensation section of the heat pipe is ignored in the long-term operation device of the high-temperature heat pipe in the prior art. Based on this, a high-temperature heat pipe operation device with waste recovery of the present invention recycles and reuses the heat of this part of the medium, thereby greatly reducing the cost of high-temperature heat pipe operation and saving energy. And a high-temperature heat pipe operation device with waste recovery of the present invention includes an evaporation section system and a condensation section system.

[0007] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the evaporation section system comprises a cylindrical barrel, and a plurality of first mounting holes and a plurality of second mounting holes are alternately distributed on the bottom of the cylindrical barrel. Among them, the plurality of first mounting holes are distributed in an array, and the plurality of first mounting holes are all used to install electric heating rods, so that the installed plurality of electric heating rods form an electric heating rod array.

[0008] In the present invention, several of the second mounting holes are used to install the evaporation sections of multiple high-temperature heat pipes to be tested, so that the multiple high-temperature heat pipes to be tested after installation can form a high-temperature heat pipe array, and the high-temperature heat pipe array and the electric heating rod array are evenly alternately arranged, so that several of the electric heating rods can achieve uniform heating of the multiple high-temperature heat pipes to be tested at the same time.

[0009] In the present invention, there is a gap between the outer walls of the installed several electric heating rods, the outer walls of the multiple high-temperature heat pipes to be tested and the inner wall of the cylindrical barrel, and the gap is used to fill the heat transfer medium so that the several electric heating rods can uniformly heat the multiple high-temperature heat pipes to be tested at the same time through the heat transfer medium.

[0010] In the present invention, the condensation section system includes an air duct body and an air duct top cover, and the air duct top cover is detachably arranged on the upper end of the air duct body to facilitate the installation, replacement and maintenance of the electric heating rod.

[0011] In the present invention, a plurality of first through holes are provided at the bottom of the air duct body, and the positions of the plurality of first through holes correspond one-to-one to the positions of the plurality of second mounting holes. The plurality of first through holes are used for allowing the condensing sections of a plurality of high-temperature heat pipes to be tested to pass through, so as to facilitate the installation, replacement and maintenance of the high-temperature heat pipes to be tested.

In addition, by setting the positions of the plurality of second through holes corresponding one-to-one to the positions of the plurality of first through holes, the gap between each thermocouple and the top cover of the air duct can be made smaller, thereby effectively avoiding contact between the air duct body and the outside air, thereby improving the experimental efficiency.

[0013] In the present invention, the gas outlet end of the air duct body is connected to a gas supply pipeline, and the gas outlet end of the gas supply pipeline is respectively connected to an exhaust branch and an ejector.

[0014] In the present invention, one end of the ejector is connected to a room temperature compressed air source, and the other end is connected to a coil; and the gas outlet end of the coil is connected to the gas inlet end of the air duct body to form a circulating gas path. The room temperature compressed air provided by the room temperature compressed air source is introduced into the coil through the ejector, and then enters the air duct body through the coil, and performs heat exchange with the condensing section of the high temperature heat pipe to be tested in the air duct body with an operating temperature of more than 700°C, thereby forming a low pressure gas above 600°C, which is output from the gas outlet of the air duct body and enters the air supply pipeline, and is transported to the ejector through the air supply pipeline. At this time, the low pressure gas above 600°C formed merges with the room temperature compressed air provided by the room temperature compressed air source to form a gas of 395°C to 405°C, and enters the coil from the gas outlet of the ejector, finally achieving the flow and heat balance of the system.

Among them, the room temperature compressed air provided by the room temperature compressed air source is introduced into the coil 9 through the ejector 8, and then enters the air duct body 4 through the coil 9, and performs heat exchange with the condensing section of the high-temperature heat pipe 3 to be tested in the air duct body 4 with an operating temperature of more than 700°C, thereby forming a low-pressure gas above 600°C, which is output from the gas outlet of the air duct body 4 and enters the air supply pipeline 6, and is transported to the ejector 8 through the air supply pipeline 6. At this time, the formed low-pressure gas above 600°C merges with the room temperature compressed air provided by the room temperature compressed air source to form a gas of 395°C~405°C, and enters the coil 9 from the gas outlet of the ejector 8, finally achieving the flow and heat balance of the system.

[0079] Step 2, installation of the high temperature heat pipe to be tested:

[0080] 2.1) Vertically pass the 14 high-temperature heat pipes 3 to be tested through the corresponding first through holes 401 until the evaporation section of each of the high-temperature heat pipes 3 to be tested is installed in the corresponding second installation hole 102, and the condensation section of each of the high-temperature heat pipes 3 to be tested is located in the air duct body 4. At this time, the high-temperature heat pipe array formed by the 14 high-temperature heat pipes 3 to be tested is surrounded by the electric heating rod array composed of 23 electric heating rods 2, so that the electric heating rod array can fully and evenly heat the high-temperature heat pipe array to the greatest extent, so as to ensure that each heat pipe is heated evenly.

[0081] 2.2) Temperature sensors are installed on the temperature sensor interfaces 402 at the gas inlet and gas outlet ends of the air duct body 4 to facilitate real-time monitoring of the temperatures of the gas inlet and gas outlet ends of the air duct body 4 .

[0082] 2.3) Install a pressure sensor at the pressure sensor interface 601 on the gas supply pipeline 6.

[0083] 2.4) A flow sensor is installed at the flow sensor interface 901 at the gas outlet end of the coil 9 to monitor the gas flow entering the air duct body 4 .

[0084] Step 3, installation and connection of thermocouple:

[0085] A thermocouple is respectively connected to the outer wall surface of each of the high-temperature heat pipes 3 to be tested, and each of the thermocouples is respectively passed through the corresponding first through hole 401 on the air duct top cover 5. Subsequently, the air duct top cover 5 is installed on the upper end of the air duct body 4; and each of the thermocouples is signal-connected to the data acquisition device.

[0086] Step 4, thermal insulation treatment:

[0087] 4.1) The evaporation section system and the condensation section system are both wrapped with thermal insulation cotton to insulate from the external environment.

[0088] 4.2) Check the air tightness of the gas line. The specific operation method is: open the compressor 11 to let air into the pipeline, close the branch exhaust valve of the air supply pipeline 6, observe the pressure sensor reading, and when the pressure in the pipeline rises to 1Mpa, turn off the compressor 11 to stop the air intake. If the pipeline pressure drops by no more than 1% after 30 minutes, it is considered that the pipeline is well sealed, and the experiment in step 5 can be carried out.

[0089] Step 5, start the experiment:

[0090] 5.1) Turn on the electric heating rod 2, set the total heating power to 21kw, observe the data acquisition device, and when the temperature of the outer wall of the evaporation section of the high-temperature heat pipe 3 to be tested rises to ≥500℃, introduce room temperature compressed gas into the ejector 8. The initial air intake of the compressor 11 is set to 10Nm3 / h, increase 5Nm every 5min 3 / h, and finally increase the flow rate of compressor 11 to 90Nm 3 / h.

[0091] 5.2) Observe the reading of the flow sensor and adjust the intake volume of the room temperature compressed gas and the exhaust flow of the exhaust branch 7 to stabilize the gas flow in the gas supply pipeline 6 at 271 Nm 3 / h~272Nm 3 / h, and when the temperature of the gas inlet end of the air duct body 4 is stabilized at 395℃~405℃, the cooling power is about 21kw, the system has achieved thermal balance, and the high-temperature heat pipe can be stably operated at an operating temperature above 700℃ and the operating time can be as long as 5000h for a long time.
