Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of industrial air conditioners, and in particular relates to a shell and tube heat exchanger for high-strength air conditioners. Background Art
[0002] Shell and tube heat exchanger is a kind of heat exchange equipment widely used in many industrial fields such as chemical industry, petroleum, electricity, food, etc. Structurally, it is mainly composed of shell, tube bundle, tube sheet, head and baffle. The shell is generally cylindrical, providing external protection and support for the entire heat exchanger. The tube bundle is composed of many tubes, which are the main channels for heat transfer. They are usually made of metal materials (such as carbon steel, stainless steel, etc.), and their shapes, sizes and arrangements vary according to specific heat exchange requirements. The tube sheet is located at both ends of the shell, mainly used to fix the tube bundle and separate the tube side and shell side. The head is used to close both ends of the shell, usually in an elliptical, spherical and other shapes. The baffle is installed in the shell, and its function is to guide the shell side fluid to repeatedly flow horizontally through the tube bundle, increase the flow rate and turbulence of the fluid, and thus improve the heat transfer efficiency. The working principle of the shell and tube heat exchanger is based on heat conduction and convection. Two fluids of different temperatures flow in the tube side and shell side respectively. Heat is transferred from the high-temperature fluid to the low-temperature fluid through the tube wall. For example, in chemical production, high-temperature reaction products flow in the shell side, while the raw materials that need to be heated flow in the tube side, and the heat is transferred from the reaction products to the raw materials to achieve preheating of the raw materials. This type of heat exchanger has many advantages. It has high reliability and adaptability, and can handle fluids of various properties (such as corrosive, viscous, etc.). And it can operate in a relatively wide temperature and pressure range. At the same time, its structure is relatively simple, easy to manufacture, install and maintain. However, shell and tube heat exchangers also have some disadvantages, such as the heat transfer efficiency may be lower than some new heat exchangers, and the volume and weight are larger.
[0003] The existing high-intensity air-conditioning shell and tube heat exchanger uses a linear tube bundle, which results in a small contact area between the tube-side fluid and the shell-side fluid, resulting in poor heat exchange efficiency between the tube-side fluid and the shell-side fluid.
[0004] Therefore, a high-strength shell and tube heat exchanger for air conditioning is needed to solve the problem in the prior art that the contact area between the tube-side fluid and the shell-side fluid is small, resulting in poor heat exchange efficiency between the tube-side fluid and the shell-side fluid.
