[0037] The counter-flow heat exchanger designed in the present invention is a capillary fin-tube heat exchanger, comprising: a heat exchange component, two cold fluid take-over nozzles, and two hot fluid take-over nozzles, wherein the two hot fluid take-over nozzles are respectively located at both ends of the heat exchange component, and the two cold fluid take-over nozzles are perpendicular to the direction of the hot fluid take-over nozzles, and are respectively located on the side walls at both ends of the heat exchange component and have opposite inlet directions; wherein the heat exchange component is integrally formed, and is a honeycomb structure composed of a plurality of capillary fin tubes arranged in parallel, and the outer portion of the honeycomb structure is a cylindrical shell, and each capillary fin tube is composed of six fins and a capillary tube, such as Figure 4As shown in the figure, the fins are uniformly distributed around the capillary tubes in the radial direction, each fin on each capillary fin tube is adjacent to a fin on a capillary fin tube, the fins are connected to form a triangular channel, and the six capillary fin tubes adjacent to each capillary fin tube are arranged in a regular hexagon (the center spacing of the capillary tubes is 4.9mm±0.1); arc-shaped end plates perpendicular to the capillary fin tubes are respectively arranged at both ends of the heat exchange component, the arc-shaped end plates are connected to the shell, and the arc tops face the center direction of the heat exchange component; the capillary fin tube is not provided with fins (the fins are cut off) at a distance close to the arc-shaped end plate, and only the capillary tube is retained; the two ends of the capillary tube extend to the arc-shaped end plate and form capillary holes corresponding to the capillary tube on the arc-shaped end plate; the two ends of the fin are at a certain distance from the arc-shaped end plate (the shortest distance is about 5.4mm), that is, the triangular channel formed by the connection of the fins is cut off. Before the arc-shaped end plate, the end face of the triangular channel and the arc-shaped end plate form a cavity through which only the capillary tube passes; the two hot fluid connecting nozzles are respectively distributed at both ends of the heat exchange component, and are formed into one body with the outer shells at both ends of the heat exchange component by welding; the area between the hot fluid connecting nozzle and the arc-shaped end plate is a hot side fluid collecting chamber, and the hot fluid flowing into the collecting chamber passes through the diversion effect of the capillary holes on the arc-shaped end plate and flows into the capillaries of the heat exchange component for heat exchange; the two cold fluid connecting nozzles are respectively distributed on the side walls of the fin cut-off part of the heat exchange component, and are formed into one body with the side walls at both ends of the heat exchange component by welding; the space between the fin cut-off end and the arc-shaped end plate is the cold side fluid collecting chamber, and the cold fluid connecting nozzle is arranged on the outer shell of this space, and the cold fluid flowing into the collecting chamber through the cold fluid connecting nozzle passes through the diversion of the triangular channel formed by the fins and flows into the heat exchange channel for heat exchange.
[0038] 2. Parameter modeling and calculation principle of countercurrent heat exchanger;
[0039] The heat exchange tube contains supercritical fluid, and its physical properties change dramatically. Therefore, the one-dimensional discrete method is used in the design process to cut the heat exchanger into several modules as calculation nodes. Each calculation node has constant physical properties. The AMESim one-dimensional calculation model is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the relationship between the given flow rate, temperature, and outlet pressure of the low-pressure cold fluid channel inlet and the given flow rate, temperature, and outlet pressure of the high-pressure hot fluid channel is analyzed. The specific method is:
[0040] The influence of the number of nodes on the heat transfer calculation results is verified, and combined with the consumption of computing resources, the countercurrent heat exchanger is divided into ten computing nodes, and the pipeline heat exchange module in the model considers phase change. The parameters and variables in the model are defined in Table 1.
[0041] Table 1 Parameter and variable definitions
[0042]
[0043]
[0044] For the forced convection heat transfer coefficient in a pipe, the most common relationship is:
[0045]
[0046] Where: Nu f Re represents the Nusselt number or heat transfer factor of the fluid, Re f represents the fluid Reynolds number, Pr f It represents the Prandtl number of the fluid. When the fluid is heated, n=0.4, and when the fluid is cooled, n=0.3.
[0047] The heat transfer coefficient of the medium in the tube is positively correlated with Re. The flow velocity of the medium in the tube should be increased as much as possible. Combined with the 3D printing process and precision, the inner diameter of the heat exchange tube is set to 1mm±0.1mm and the outer diameter is set to 2mm±0.1mm.
[0048] 3. Parameter design of countercurrent heat exchanger
[0049] After the heat exchanger heat exchange channel length is determined according to the installation space, the number of heat exchange tubes, the outlet temperature of the hot fluid, and the flow resistance of the hot fluid process are simulated and analyzed first to obtain the corresponding relationship between the three. The number of heat exchange tubes does not affect the outlet temperature of the hot fluid, but when the number of heat exchange tubes is small, the flow resistance of the hot fluid process is large. The number of heat exchange tubes is selected in combination with the flow resistance requirements under subsequent flow conditions;
[0050] When the number of heat exchange tubes is determined, the corresponding relationship between the hot fluid outlet temperature, the cold fluid outlet temperature, and the hot fluid flow resistance under different cold fluid flow conditions is simulated and analyzed, and the cold fluid flow corresponding to the critical point temperature when the hot fluid outlet temperature will not drop further when the phase change latent heat is fully utilized and the cold fluid flow is continuously increased is selected;
[0051] According to the number of heat exchange tubes and the flow rate of cold fluid, the flow velocity of the medium in the tube, the pressure of the hot fluid in the heat exchange tube and the pressure of the cold fluid in the channel formed by the fins on the outside of the heat exchange tube are considered, and the minimum values of the heat exchange tube diameter, wall thickness, fin thickness, and outer wall thickness of the heat exchanger are selected under the conditions of heat exchange effect, strength requirements and 3D printing process capabilities;
[0052] The cold side fluid is designed to be "in from the bottom and out from the top" to adapt to the fact that the density of the cold fluid is reduced after being heated, reducing resistance and mixed flow problems. Therefore, the cold fluid nozzle at the cold fluid inlet is placed downward, and the cold fluid nozzle at the outlet is placed upward; the cold and hot fluid collecting chambers are mainly designed based on the compactness of the product and the simplicity of processing and molding;
[0053] Example
[0054] According to the known hot fluid flow conditions and the hot fluid target outlet temperature, adjust the number of heat exchange tubes and the cold fluid flow, respectively obtain the influence of the number of heat exchange tubes and the cold fluid flow on heat transfer and flow resistance, and determine the appropriate number of heat exchange tubes and cold fluid flow. The details are as follows:
[0055] If the cold fluid flow rate is 0.05 kg / s, the outlet temperature and flow resistance of the hot fluid process under different numbers of heat exchange tubes are shown in the following table. It is found that the number of tube passes does not affect the outlet temperature of the hot fluid, but when the number of tube passes is small, the flow resistance of the hot fluid process is large, as shown in Table 2. Combined with the flow resistance requirements under subsequent large flow conditions, the number of heat exchange tubes is selected as 469.
[0056] Table 2 Correspondence between hot fluid outlet parameters and the number of heat exchange tubes
[0057] Number of heat exchange tubes Hot fluid outlet temperature Thermal fluid flow resistance (pressure drop) 91 311K 40.2bar 169 312K 14.8bar 331 312K 4.3bar 469 312K 2.2bar
[0058] Under the above number of tube passes (469), the flow rate of the cold fluid was investigated. The outlet temperature and process flow resistance of the hot fluid flow and the outlet temperature of the cold fluid under different cold fluid flow conditions are shown in Table 3. It was found that when the cold fluid flow rate was small, the outlet temperature of the cold fluid was higher than the boiling temperature, indicating that its phase change latent heat had been fully utilized and the outlet had been completely vaporized, but at this time the outlet temperature of the hot fluid was still higher than the design target of 310K±5K. When the cold fluid flow rate increased to 0.05kg / s, the outlet temperature of the hot fluid met the design requirements, and when the cold fluid flow rate was further increased, the utilization rate of the latent heat of vaporization of the cold fluid decreased, and the heat transfer performance of the countercurrent heat exchanger would not be further increased. Therefore, the optimal cold fluid flow rate was 0.05kg / s.

[0060]
[0061]
[0062] Based on multiple rounds of parameter design and combined with the 3D printing process, the specific geometric parameters of the heat exchanger are shown in Table 4. The heat exchange tube with a diameter of 1 mm can withstand a high pressure of 15 MPa. The outside of the heat exchange tube is a low-pressure cold fluid. Therefore, the outer wall thickness of the heat exchanger is designed to be 0.5 mm ± 0.05 mm, which meets the strength requirements while further reducing the volume and weight of the heat exchanger.
[0063] Table 4 Heat exchanger geometric parameter model
[0064] parameter Structural solution Heat exchanger diameter D(mm) 125 Fin tube number N 451 Fin tube diameter mm 1 Fin tube wall thickness mm 0.5 Fin thickness mm 0.4 Heat exchanger outer wall thickness (mm) 0.5 Heat exchanger length mm 700
[0065] As shown in the attached figure Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown in the figure, the capillary fin tube heat exchanger is mainly composed of heat exchange components and pipe nozzles, and the cross section of the heat exchange component is as follows: Figure 5 , which contains 451 φ1mm capillary fin tubes (such as Figure 4 ).
[0066] Capillary fin tubes can be divided into capillary tubes and uniform fins; the capillary tube diameter is designed to be 1mm mainly to take into account two aspects. One is to increase the flow velocity of the medium in the tube as much as possible and enhance heat exchange, so the smaller the heat exchange tube diameter, the better; on the other hand, affected by the 3D printing process and precision, the heat exchange tube diameter and wall thickness cannot be too small. In summary, the capillary tube diameter is designed to be 1mm±0.5mm. Based on experience and combined with the 3D printing process, the fin thickness and height are taken as 0.4mm and 1.73mm respectively. In order to evenly arrange 451 capillary fin tubes in a regular hexagon, the tube spacing is determined to be 4.9mm and the shell diameter of the heat exchange component is 125mm.
[0067] Partial cross-sectional view of the heat exchanger Figure 6 The fluid collecting chamber is divided into a high-temperature and high-pressure supercritical fluid collecting chamber and a cold fluid collecting chamber. The cold and hot fluid collecting chambers are designed mainly based on the compactness of the product and the simplicity of processing and molding. Among them:
[0068] The high-temperature and high-pressure supercritical fluid collecting chamber is composed of an arc-shaped end plate and an outer shell. Combined with 3D printing technology, the end plate is designed as an arc surface structure. All heat exchange tubes penetrate the arc-shaped end plate. Capillary holes are set on the end plate. The hot fluid enters the heat exchange channel of the heat exchange tube through the capillary holes on the arc-shaped end plate.
[0069] The cold fluid collecting chamber is composed of an arc-shaped end plate (shared with the hot fluid collecting chamber), an outer shell and a capillary fin end face, which contains all the finless heat exchange tubes. After the cold fluid flows in, it will flush the heat exchange tubes horizontally and then enter Figure 5 In the triangular heat exchange channel composed of fins shown.
[0070] like Figure 6 As shown, the high-pressure hot fluid flows into the liquid collecting cavity through the axial nozzle and is dispersed into the interior of each fin tube, and the low-pressure cold fluid flows into the liquid collecting cavity through the side nozzle and is dispersed into the triangular channel formed by each fin. The flow direction of the hot and cold fluids is countercurrent (such as Figure 3 ), the heat exchange effect is good. In addition, the cold side fluid is designed to be "in from the bottom and out from the top" to adapt to the cold fluid being heated, the density is reduced, and the resistance and mixed flow problems are reduced.
[0071] The contents not described in detail in the specification of the present invention belong to the prior art known to the professional and technical personnel in this field.
