DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described here is only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and is not used to limit the present invention.

[0044] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the terms "upper", "lower", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the mechanism or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0045] like Figure 1 To make the view as clear as possible, Figure 1 The heat exchanger shown in the figure is rotated 90°. Figure 1 The heat exchanger of this embodiment includes an external shell 10, and a first tube sheet 11 and a second tube sheet 12 are arranged in the shell 10 along the length direction of the shell 10. In the figure, only lines are used to represent the first tube sheet 11 and the second tube sheet 12 for clarity, and they actually have thickness.

[0046] The shell 10 is divided into a first cavity 13, a second cavity 14 and a third cavity 15 which are independent of each other by the first tube sheet 11 and the second tube sheet 12. The second cavity 14 is located between the first cavity 13 and the third cavity 15. A plurality of hollow first heat exchange tubes 16 are arranged in the second cavity 14. In order to show the clarity, the first heat exchange tubes 16 are only indicated by lines in the figure, which are actually hollow tubular structures. One end of the plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 is fixedly connected to the first tube sheet 11 and communicates with the first cavity 13, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second tube sheet 12 and communicates with the third cavity 15. The first cavity 13, the plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 and the third cavity 15 are for the first medium to flow.

[0047] To facilitate assembly, the shell 10 includes a first tube head 101 and a second tube head 102 located at both ends and a middle tube shell 103 located in the middle. The first tube head 101 is provided with a first inlet 104 connected to the first cavity 13, and the second tube head 102 is provided with a first outlet 105 connected to the third cavity 15.

[0048] A header assembly 20 is disposed in the second cavity 14. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the header assembly 20 includes two baffles 21 arranged in parallel along the length direction of the shell 10, the two baffles 21 form an upper opening 201 and a lower opening 202, and header pipes 22 are respectively arranged at both ends of the baffles 21, and a plurality of hollow second heat exchange tubes 23 are arranged between the two baffles 21. In order to show clearly, the second heat exchange tubes 23 are only represented by lines in the figure, which are actually hollow tubular structures.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the middle tube shell 103 is provided with a second inlet 106 connected to one of the header pipes 22 and a second outlet 107 connected to another header pipe 22. Both ends of the plurality of second heat exchange tubes 23 are respectively connected to the header pipe 22, and the header pipe 22 and the plurality of second heat exchange tubes 23 are provided for the second medium to flow. The plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 are distributed on both sides of the header assembly 20.

[0050] like Figure 1As shown, the middle tube shell 103 is also provided with a third inlet 108 and a third outlet 109 communicated with the second cavity 14, and the space inside the second cavity 14 and outside the plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 and the plurality of second heat exchange tubes 23 is used for the third medium to flow. The temperature of the second medium is higher than that of the first medium, and the temperature of the first medium is higher than that of the third medium. The third medium flows and contacts with the first heat exchange tubes 16 and the second heat exchange tubes 23, thereby performing heat exchange with the second medium and the first medium, thereby achieving cooling of the second medium and the first medium.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the partition 21 includes a first partition 211, a second partition 212 and a third partition 213 arranged along the length direction of the shell 10. The partition 21 includes a first partition 211, a second partition 212 and a third partition 21 arranged along the length direction of the shell 10. One end of the first partition 211, both ends of the second partition 212 and one end of the third partition 213 are respectively provided with a waist-shaped hole 214, the waist-shaped hole 214 of the first partition 211 and the waist-shaped hole 214 at one end of the second partition 212 are connected by bolts, and the waist-shaped hole 214 at the other end of the second partition 212 and the waist-shaped hole 214 of the third partition 213 are connected by bolts. Since the second heat exchange tube 23 undergoes hot and cold cycles during the heat exchange process, it will produce thermal expansion and contraction, and will produce axial expansion and contraction, so the partition 21 needs to have a corresponding displacement. The partition 21 adopts a three-section structure connected by waist-shaped holes, which can produce corresponding displacement with the thermal expansion and contraction of the second heat exchange tube 23, so that the second heat exchange tube 23 is not easy to break during the heat exchange process.

[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, a third tube sheet 26 is provided between the partition 21 and the header pipe 22, and the end of the second heat exchange tube 23 passes through the third tube sheet 26 and communicates with the header pipe 22. Since the welding requirements between the second heat exchange tube 23 and the header pipe 22 are relatively high, it is impossible to adopt the conventional welding form of small tubes and large tubes, so a third tube sheet 26 with a rectangular plate structure is provided between the partition 21 and the header pipe 22 to facilitate the welding connection between the second heat exchange tube 23 and the header pipe 22.

[0053] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of dummy tubes are arranged on one side of the partition 21 away from the second heat exchange tube 23. Since the distance between the header assembly 20 and the first heat exchange tube 16 is relatively large, a short-circuit phenomenon may occur here, affecting the flow of the third medium, so dummy tubes are arranged to act as heat exchange tubes to avoid the short-circuit phenomenon caused by the large distance.

[0054] The dummy tube includes a first dummy tube 27 and a second dummy tube 28 which are sleeved with each other. The end of the first dummy tube 27 away from the second dummy tube 28 is fixedly connected to the third tube sheet 26, and the end of the second dummy tube 28 away from the first dummy tube 27 is fixedly connected to the second partition 212. Since there is no hot fluid flowing in the dummy tube, the dummy tube and the second heat exchange tube 23 will not be able to expand and contract axially synchronously. When the dummy tube expands and contracts, its welding point will be stressed, and it will tear during use. Therefore, the dummy tube adopts a form of one end being welded and the other end being sleeved. The first dummy tube 27 and the second dummy tube 28 can be relatively displaced in the axial direction, so that the first dummy tube 27 can move with the third tube sheet 26, and the second dummy tube 28 can move with the second partition 212, so as to ensure that the dummy tube can expand and contract accordingly with the displacement of the partition 21, and the dummy tube can also play a supporting role. Of course, the end of the first dummy tube 27 away from the second dummy tube 28 can also be welded to the first partition 211 or the third partition 213, and the same technical effect can be achieved.

[0055] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the bottom of the header assembly 20 is provided with a plurality of support parts 24, and the support parts 24 are provided with four support legs 241, and the four support legs 241 are arranged in a rectangular shape. The support parts 24 can suspend the header assembly 20, which is more conducive to the flow of the third medium. At the same time, the design of the four support legs 241 arranged in a rectangular shape can reduce the occupied space and minimize the interference with the flow of the third medium.

[0056] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of support rods 25 are arranged between the two partitions 21, and the two ends of the plurality of support rods 25 are respectively fixedly connected to the partitions 21. The support rods 25 and the partitions 21 are spot welded into one body, which can not only support the second heat exchange tube 23, but also reduce the fluid interference of the second heat exchange tube 23 to the third medium. Moreover, the support rods 25 and the partitions 21 are connected as one body, and can move accordingly with the displacement of the partitions 21, without affecting the expansion and contraction of the second heat exchange tube 23.

[0057] like Figure 7As shown in the cross-sectional view, the first medium flows in the first heat exchange tubes 16 on both sides of the partition 21, the second medium flows in the second heat exchange tubes 23 between the partitions 21, and the third medium flows in the second cavity 14 and in the space outside the plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 and the plurality of second heat exchange tubes 23. Since the temperature of the second medium is higher than that of the first medium, and the temperature of the first medium is higher than that of the third medium, the third medium will spontaneously form a circulating turbulent flow from the upper opening 201 to the second cavity 14 on both sides of the header assembly 20 under the temperature difference, and then flow back to the inside of the header assembly 20 from the lower opening 202. During the flow process, the third medium contacts the first heat exchange tubes 16 and the second heat exchange tubes 23, thereby performing heat exchange with the second medium and the first medium, thereby achieving cooling of the second medium and the first medium.

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, at least two support plates 29 are disposed in the second cavity 14. For the sake of clarity, the support plates 29 are only represented by lines, and actually have thickness. Figure 8 As shown, the support plate 29 is formed by welding a number of round steel bars. Fig. 9 As shown, the support plate 29 can not only support the first heat exchange tube 16, but also the hollow structure formed by welding the round steel can minimize the occupied area of ​​the support plate 29 and reduce its interference with the flow of the third medium. It should be noted that the hollow structure formed by welding the round steel is to facilitate the flow of the third medium while supporting it, and of course it can also be welded into other suitable shapes.

[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the support plate 29 is supported and fixed by a plurality of tie rods 30, and the two ends of the tie rods 30 are respectively fixedly connected to the first tube sheet 11 and the second tube sheet 12. The tie rods 30 can facilitate the fixing of the support plate 29.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, the shell 10 is placed at an angle, and a first inlet 104 for injecting a first medium, a second inlet 106 for injecting a second medium, and a third inlet 108 for injecting a third medium are all arranged at a higher end of the shell 10, so that the flow of different media is more convenient under the action of gravity, so that different media are discharged from their corresponding first outlet 105, second outlet 107, and third outlet 109.

[0061] Since the header assembly 20 is added inside the heat exchanger, the heat exchanger of this embodiment adopts a unique manufacturing method, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0062] Step A: Place the middle tube shell 103 separately;

[0063] Step B: Fix the assembled header assembly 20 at a designated position in the middle tube shell 103;

[0064] Step C: welding the first tube sheet 11 to a designated position;

[0065] Step D: welding one end of a plurality of tie rods 30 to the first tube sheet 11;

[0066] Step E: The support plate 29 is welded from the middle tube shell 103, and the other end of the first tube sheet 11 is passed through the tie rod 30 and fixed to the corresponding position. During this process, the insertion of the tie rod 30 can be observed through the observation hole 110 provided on the shell 10;

[0067] Step F: Passing a plurality of first heat exchange tubes 16 through the first tube sheet 11 and the support plate 29 in sequence;

[0068] Step G: Place the second tube sheet 12 from the other end of the first tube sheet 11 welded to the middle tube shell 103 into the designated position, and make the other end of the first heat exchange tube 16 pass through the second tube sheet 12, and then weld the second tube sheet 12 to the shell 10;

[0069] Step H: Weld the two ends of the first heat exchange tube 16 to the first tube sheet 11 and the second tube sheet 12 respectively. The schematic diagram of the welding structure of the first heat exchange tube 16 and the first tube sheet 11 is shown in FIG. Fig.10 As shown, the welding of the first heat exchange tube 16 and the second tube sheet 12 is also Fig.10 similar;

[0070] Step I: Install the first tube head 101 and the second tube head 102 at two ends of the middle tube shell 103 .

[0071] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present invention, a variety of simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
