The multiple heat exchange tubes are arc-shaped and arranged at intervals in the radial direction. This type of annular heat exchange tube and plate structure has a heat exchange medium flow channel formed in the tube body or plate body for the clean working fluid to flow, and a non-clean working fluid flow channel is formed between adjacent heat exchange tubes.
[0003] Since the heat exchange tubes of traditional heat exchangers are designed in concentric circles, the flow path lengths of the clean working fluid in each circle are inconsistent and the fluid is unevenly distributed. During the heat exchange process, the clean working fluid in the inner circle heat exchange tubes is discharged from the heat exchanger before it is fully heat exchanged, while the clean working fluid in the outer circle heat exchange tubes has completed heat exchange with the unclean working fluid before being discharged from the heat exchanger. As a result, the clean working fluid in the second half of the outer circle heat exchange tubes cannot achieve any heat exchange effect at all, and the heat of the clean working fluid cannot be fully utilized. This problem needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. The equal flow path design of the heat exchange medium flow channel of the present invention ensures that when the heat exchange medium passes through the inside of the heat exchanger, the flow cross-sectional area and flow length of all heat exchange medium flow paths are exactly the same, thereby achieving uniform distribution of the heat exchange medium flow rate, and the overall flow path is pure countercurrent, thereby achieving full utilization of the heat of the clean working fluid, improving the heat exchange efficiency, and avoiding the influence of heat exchange on the inner and outer ring flow paths of the concentric circle design heat exchange tube being inconsistent.
[0019] 2. The present invention performs an expansion design on the heat exchange plate and obtains the optimal expansion profile of the heat exchange plate by calculation to maximize the heat exchange efficiency. While reducing the volume of the heat exchanger, it can ensure that the heat exchanger has a high heat exchange efficiency and is not prone to blockage inside the heat exchanger.
[0020] 3. The non-clean working fluid of the present invention is distributed to the sewage flow channel between adjacent heat exchange plates through the distribution holes of the sewage pipe box, flows from bottom to top and converges through the overflow port and then flows out from the sewage outlet pipe. The flow paths in the vertical direction are the same, forming a sewage flow path with equal flow paths to ensure uniform heat exchange.
[0021] 4. There are no pipeline obstacles between adjacent heat exchange plates of the present invention. The cleaning rod is driven by a motor to rotate, which will make the raw sewage have a concentric rotation angular velocity in the horizontal direction. On the one hand, this rotation increases the flow rate of the sewage itself and increases turbulent disturbance. On the other hand, the soft bristles on the brush group directly physically contact the heat exchange surface of the heat exchange plate to remove dirt and biofilm deposition that may be generated by long-term operation. The outer side of the plate always remains in a "brand new" state. While physically removing the biofilm or dirt deposited on the surface, the wall thermal resistance on the sewage side is made to 0, maintaining the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger, and achieving the dual purposes of "preventive self-cleaning" and "non-clean side turbulence heat exchange enhancement".

[0037] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0038] See also Figures 1 to 5 In an embodiment of the present invention, a pure countercurrent open heat exchanger with equal flow path is provided, wherein a shell 1 of the heat exchanger is a barrel-shaped structure with an opening at the top, and a sealing cover 2 is installed at the bottom opening.
[0039] The cover 2 is hingedly connected to the housing 1 through a hinge structure, so that the opening of the housing 1 can be closed by flipping and opening. A handle structure is provided on the cover 2 to facilitate manual opening and closing of the cover 2, and a motor base is installed on the crossbeam of the cover 2 to install a drive motor 3.
[0040] Multiple circles of heat exchange plates 6 are coaxially arranged in the shell 1, and a separation weld line 68 is opened in the horizontal direction on each heat exchange plate 6. The length of the separation weld line 68 is less than the length of the heat exchange plate 6 after it is unfolded, and there is a gap between the two ends of the weld line and the welds on both sides of the heat exchange plate 6. Two parallel guide weld lines 681 are vertically extended downward from both ends of the separation weld line 68. The two guide weld lines 681 cooperate with the separation weld line 68 to form a U-shaped weld line, which divides the heat exchange medium flow channel in the heat exchange plate 6 into two heat exchange areas. With the U-shaped weld line as the boundary, the inner circle of the U-shaped weld line is the lower heat exchange area 684, and the outer circle of the U-shaped weld line is the upper heat exchange area 683. The flow paths of the heat exchange medium flow channels in the upper heat exchange area 683 and the lower heat exchange area 684 are equal.
[0041] The heat exchange plate 6 is a hollow plate, which is bent and welded to form an annular plate. The heat exchange plate 6 includes two groups of plates 61, the edges of the two plates 61 are welded and fixed, and the two plates 61 are welded and fixed by evenly arranged welding points 63. After the two groups of plates 61 are pressurized, a bulging three-dimensional space is formed between each welding point 63. Specifically, the plate 61 is formed by laser or resistance welding after two metal plates are overlapped, and then the inlet and outlet pipes are connected, and the remaining edge of the plate is sealed again by laser or resistance welding, and finally, it is formed by hydraulic bulging.
[0042] The arrangement of the welding points 63 is to form a multi-row arrangement on the vertical plate surface of the plate 61, and the spacing between the welding points 63 in each row is equal, and the welding points 63 in two adjacent rows are arranged in a staggered manner in the vertical position. The heat exchange medium flow cavity 62 is formed between the four groups of diamond-shaped welding points 63. There are multiple groups of heat exchange medium flow cavities 62, and the heat exchange medium flow cavities 62 at non-edges have four openings, each of which is connected to the opening of the adjacent heat exchange medium flow cavity 62, so that the heat exchange medium can flow in the three-dimensional space bulging in the heat exchange plate 6. The welding points 63 are preferably annular welding points.
[0043] A spatial rectangular coordinate system is established with the center of the welding point 63 as the origin. The arrangement direction of the heat exchange plate 6 corresponds to the plane formed between the Z axis and the X axis in the spatial rectangular coordinate system. The distance between two groups of welding points 63 arranged in opposition to each other at a long distance in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 62 is 2S. T The distance between the other two groups of welding points 63 arranged in close opposition in the heat exchange medium flow cavity 62 is 2S. L , the maximum bulging height of the heat exchange medium flow cavity 62 along the Y axis is δ; then in the spatial rectangular coordinate system, the contour coordinates of the heat exchange medium flow cavity 62 on the Y axis are:
[0044]
[0045] An annular sewage flow channel is formed between adjacent heat exchange plates 6, and each circle of sewage flow channels is in a connected state. A driving motor 3 is provided on the cover 2, and the driving motor 3 controls the rotation of the driving shaft 4 through a reducer. The driving shaft 4 extends axially along the shell 1 into the shell 1. A cleaning rod is fixed on the driving shaft 4, and the rod body of the cleaning rod is arranged along the diameter direction of the shell 1. A brush corresponding to the height of the heat exchange plate is vertically arranged on the cleaning rod. Preferably, two groups of brushes are symmetrically arranged in each sewage flow channel. When the driving motor 3 drives the cleaning rod to rotate through the driving shaft 4, the brush surface of the brush fits the plate body of the heat exchange plate 6 on both sides of the brush, and the heat exchange plate 6 is brushed and cleaned.
[0046] A sewage pipe box 141 is provided at the bottom of the shell 1, and the sewage pipe box 141 is connected to the sewage inlet pipe 14. A plurality of distribution holes 142 are opened on the sewage pipe box 141. The number of the distribution holes 142 corresponds to the number of sewage flow channels. The distribution holes 142 are preferably rectangular holes. A sewage discharge joint 143 is also provided on the sewage pipe box 141, which is used to independently discharge the sludge in the sewage pipe box 141 after opening.
[0047] Each heat exchange plate 6 is provided with an overflow port 66 at the top. The shape of the overflow port 66 is not limited. The interface of the sewage outlet pipe 15 corresponds to the height of the overflow port 66 of the heat exchange plate 6. The sewage flowing from bottom to top for heat exchange passes through the overflow port 66 and is discharged outward along the sewage outlet pipe 15. The outer plate 61 of the heat exchange plate 6 located in the outermost circle is 0.3-0.5 mm thicker than the inner plate. A group of arc-shaped outlets are provided at the top of the heat exchange plate 6 in the outermost circle. The radius of the arc corresponds to the radius of the sewage outlet pipe 15, which is used to communicate with the sewage outlet pipe 15. An independent sewage outlet is provided at the bottom of the shell 1. When the heat exchanger is cleaned, the dirt or impurities generated by cleaning are directly discharged outward through the sewage outlet. Compared with the sewage inlet pipe 14, the sewage outlet pipe 15 should be larger in size, and its top should be 2-5 cm lower than the total height of the heat exchange plate 6. The arrangement height of the heat exchange medium inlet pipe 11 and the heat exchange medium outlet pipe 12 is preferably higher than the height of the sewage inlet pipe 14 and the sewage pipe box 141.
[0048] When the heat exchange plates 6 are laid flat, each upper heat exchange zone 683 is provided with an exhaust hole 67 at the top. The exhaust holes 67 of the upper heat exchange zones 683 of each heat exchange plate 6 located in the inner circle (all heat exchange plates except the outermost circle heat exchange plate) are arranged vertically to avoid position interference with the brushing trajectory of the brush. Exhaust holes 67 are arranged radially at the top of the outer side surface of the heat exchange plate 6 located in the outermost circle. One section of the separating weld line 68 is disconnected, and a small-sized weld ring is arranged at the disconnection point to form an air exchange hole, through which the gas in the lower heat exchange zone 684 is discharged into the upper heat exchange zone 683. The aperture of the air exchange hole is small, so the flow rate of the heat exchange medium exchanged between the lower heat exchange zone 684 and the upper heat exchange zone 683 through the air exchange hole is negligible. The position of the air exchange hole is preferably arranged 5 cm near the side weld of the heat exchange plate 6.
[0049] Except for the heat exchange plates 6 in the outermost circle, the spacing between the double-sided welding lines at the top of each heat exchange plate 6 in the inner circle and the top edge is ≤2cm, and the spacing between the double-sided welding lines at the bottom and the bottom edge is ≥6cm. A large number of flow-averaging holes 69 with a diameter ≥3cm are evenly distributed along the double-sided welding lines at the bottom in the circumferential direction at equal intervals, and the aperture of each flow-averaging hole 69 is ≥3cm.
[0050] The heat exchange medium inlet joints 64 of the upper heat exchange area 683 and the lower heat exchange area 684 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of one of the guide welding lines 681, and the heat exchange medium outlet joints 65 of the upper heat exchange area 683 and the lower heat exchange area 684 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the other guide welding line 681. Diverter welding lines 682 are arranged at intervals in the upper heat exchange area 683 and the lower heat exchange area 684 along the vertical direction, and the diverter welding lines 682 correspond to the vertical positions of each heat exchange medium inlet joint 64 and the heat exchange medium outlet joint 65. The heat exchange medium of the upper heat exchange area 683 and the lower heat exchange area 684 is horizontally diverted by the diverter welding line 682, flows along the annular path, and is discharged through the heat exchange medium outlet joint 65.
[0051] From inside to outside, the flow paths of the heat exchange medium flow channels of each circle of heat exchange plates 6 increase equidistantly, and the two groups of heat exchange areas located in different circles are connected through the distribution pipe 13, thereby forming a heat exchange medium channel. The distribution pipe 13 has no limitation on the structure, and in this embodiment, it is formed by bending multiple sections of 90-degree bends.
[0052] The number of circles of the heat exchange plates 6 is not limited. When the heat exchange plates 6 have N circles, the heat exchange medium outlet joint 65 of one group of heat exchange zones in the i-th circle of heat exchange plates 6 is connected to the heat exchange medium inlet joint 64 of one group of heat exchange zones in the N+1-i-th circle of heat exchange plates 6 through the distribution pipe 13. The distribution pipes 13 are preferably arranged in parallel with each other.
[0053] In this embodiment, nine circles of heat exchange plates 6 are set as an example. The two groups of heat exchange areas of each circle of heat exchange plates 6 are respectively area A and area B. Area A represents the upper heat exchange area 683, and area B represents the lower heat exchange area 684. The two groups of heat exchange areas of each circle of heat exchange plates 6 are connected through nine groups of distribution pipes 13, thereby forming nine heat exchange medium channels with the same flow path. The specific connection method is as follows:
[0054] 1A-9B, 2A-8B, 3A-7B, 4A-6B, 5A-5B, 6A-4B, 7A-3B, 8A-2B, 9A-1B.
[0055] Among them, 1A-9B indicates that the upper heat exchange area 683 of the first circle of heat exchange plates 6 is connected to the lower heat exchange area 684 of the ninth circle of heat exchange plates 6 through the distribution pipe 13 from the inside to the outside. The heat exchange medium inlet joint 64 of the upper heat exchange area 683 of the first circle of heat exchange plates 6 is connected to the heat exchange medium inlet pipe 11 on the shell 1 through the inlet branch pipe, the heat exchange medium outlet joint 65 of the upper heat exchange area 683 of the first circle of heat exchange plates 6 is connected to the heat exchange medium inlet joint 64 of the lower heat exchange area 684 of the ninth circle of heat exchange plates 6 through the distribution pipe 13, and the heat exchange medium outlet joint 65 of the lower heat exchange area 684 of the ninth circle of heat exchange plates 6 is connected to the heat exchange medium outlet pipe 12 through the outlet branch pipe. The connections of the remaining pipelines correspond to the above connection methods, and so on.
[0056] On the basis of this embodiment, the heat exchange plate 6 can be evenly divided into two groups of half zones, which are separated by a vertical weld. The two half zones are semi-circular in structure and have equal flow paths. Each half zone is also evenly divided into an upper heat exchange zone 683 and a lower heat exchange zone 684, and an equal flow path heat exchange is formed through the distribution pipe 13. Further improvement can be to evenly divide the heat exchange plate 6 into multiple groups of zones along the vertical direction, and each zone is divided into a heat exchange zone 683 and a lower heat exchange zone 684, expand the number of heat exchange medium channels, and the number of distribution pipes 13 increases accordingly.
[0057] When the heat exchanger is started, the cover 2 is first turned over and opened, and clean water is injected into the heat exchange area of each heat exchange plate 6 through the heat exchange medium inlet pipe 11 as the heat exchange medium. The clean water passes through the 1A-9B heat exchange medium channel. At this time, the exhaust holes 67 on the two groups of heat exchange areas 1A-9B are all opened. After the air in the 1A-9B heat exchange medium channel is completely emptied, the exhaust holes 67 on the two groups of heat exchange areas 1A-9B are closed. Similarly, the air in each heat exchange medium channel is completely emptied, the cover 2 is closed, the sewage inlet pipe 14 is opened, and after the liquid level is flush with the inspection hole 21, the drive motor 3 is driven to drive the sewage to rotate through the brush 51, and the accumulated dirt on the surface of the heat exchanger 6 is removed through physical contact to complete the start-up of the heat exchanger.
[0058] In the operating state, the sewage outside the heat exchanger enters the sewage channels of the heat exchanger through the distribution hole 142 of the sewage pipe box 141, and flows freely through the equalizing hole 69, so that the sewage level in the heat exchanger is balanced. When the driving motor 3 drives the brush to rotate, the raw sewage will have a concentric rotation speed in the horizontal direction. This rotation will produce two beneficial effects. On the one hand, the flow rate of the fluid itself increases, increasing turbulent disturbance. On the other hand, the soft bristles on the brush group directly physically contact the heat exchange surface of the heat exchange plate 6, removing the dirt and biofilm deposition that may be generated by long-term operation, and the outer side of the plate always maintains a "brand new" state.
[0059] When draining and inspecting, close the sewage outlet pipe 15, open the sewage outlet at the bottom of the heat exchanger and the sewage outlet joint 143 on the sewage pipe box 141, and the sewage flows out through the sewage outlet and the sewage outlet joint 143 under the action of gravity. After the sewage is drained, open the cover 2 and use a high-pressure water gun to wash from the top to the bottom to remove the accumulated dirt at the opening of the distribution hole 142 of the sewage pipe box 141. In addition, the sewage inlet pipe 14 and the sewage pipe box 141 can be directly cleaned with a high-pressure water gun. By cleaning with a water gun, dirt or impurities can be directly discharged from the sewage outlet.
[0060] Taking the Reynolds number as a variable, when the heat exchange medium, heat exchange velocity and flow rate are the same, the convective heat transfer coefficients of the annular heat exchange plate formed by bending the existing rectangular hollow heat exchange plate and the heat exchange plate 6 of the present invention are compared as shown in Table 1 below. It can be seen that when other working conditions are the same, the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange plate of the present invention is much higher than that of the traditional rectangular hollow heat exchange plate.
