[0002] The present invention relates to the technical field of ship equipment, and particularly to a closed hull exhaust structure with a cooling function. Background Art
[0003] The exhaust types of ships include dry exhaust type and wet exhaust type. The dry exhaust type generally sets up a chimney passage and discharges it above the compass deck. The wet exhaust type generally mixes water and gas for cooling at an appropriate position behind the supercharger and then discharges the gas to both sides. The dry exhaust type has the disadvantages of large volume, large mass, and being unfavorable for the heat dissipation of the engine room. Although the wet exhaust type has a slight advantage over the dry exhaust type in terms of volume and mass, the current design of the wet exhaust structure has an unsatisfactory cooling effect on the exhaust pipe. The existing wet exhaust type generally sprays coolant on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe by spraying to reduce the temperature of the pipe wall, and does not fully realize the meaning of water-gas mixing and cooling. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to overcome the defects of the above-mentioned prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a closed hull exhaust structure with a cooling function, which can improve the cooling effect on the exhaust pipe of the wet exhaust type.

Through holes are provided on the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe, and both ends of the through holes are respectively communicated with the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe and the chamber.
[0006] In an optional embodiment, the cooling housing is arranged along the circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe, and two or more of the through holes are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe on the pipe wall, and two or more of the through holes are arranged at intervals along the generatrix of the exhaust pipe on the pipe wall.
[0007] In an optional embodiment, the distance between any two adjacent through holes arranged at intervals along the generatrix of the exhaust pipe ranges from 20 mm to 60 mm, and the number of the through holes arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe is 8 to 12.
[0008] In an optional embodiment, the aperture range of the through holes is from 5 mm to 15 mm.

[0017] To describe in detail the technical content, achieved object and effects of the present invention, the following is described in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, a cooling structure of the present invention includes an exhaust pipe and a cooling housing; The cooling housing covers the outer wall of the exhaust pipe. A cooling medium is passed through the chamber formed by the inner wall of the cooling housing and the outer wall of the exhaust pipe. Through holes are provided on the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe, and both ends of the through holes are respectively communicated with the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe and the chamber.
[0019] It can be seen from the above description that the beneficial effect of the present invention is to provide a cooling structure. The cooling housing is covered on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe, and a chamber for storing and circulating the cooling medium is formed by the inner wall of the cooling housing and the outer wall of the exhaust pipe. This closed cooling structure can avoid the rise of the temperature in the cabin. Through holes are opened on the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe so that the chamber is communicated with the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe. The cooling medium in the chamber contacts the outer wall of the exhaust pipe and then conducts heat exchange, so that the temperature of the outer wall of the exhaust pipe is reduced. Since the hot air flow velocity in the exhaust pipe is high and the pressure is low, it is easy for the cooling medium to enter the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe through the through holes and contact the inner wall of the exhaust pipe for heat exchange, fully achieving the purpose of cooling by mixing water and gas, and having the advantages of energy saving and consumption reduction.
[0020] Furthermore, the cooling housing is arranged along the circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe. Two or more of the through holes are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the exhaust pipe on the pipe wall, and two or more of the through holes are arranged at intervals along the generatrix of the exhaust pipe on the pipe wall.
[0021] It can be seen from the above description that the structural design of introducing the cooling medium through multiple holes can improve the uniformity and efficiency of heat dissipation of the exhaust pipe, and prevent problems such as aging and carbon deposition caused by uneven pipe wall temperature.
[0022] Furthermore, the distance between any two adjacent through-holes arranged at intervals along the generatrix of the exhaust pipe ranges from 20 mm to 60 mm, and the number of through-holes arranged at intervals along the circumference of the exhaust pipe is 8 to 12.
[0023] As can be seen from the above description, through experimental measurement, the through-hole arrangement structure within this interval range can fully achieve the heat exchange effect between the cooling medium and the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe and the hot gas inside the exhaust pipe, and balance the load of the refrigeration system, achieving the purpose of energy conservation and consumption reduction.
[0024] Furthermore, the aperture range of the through-holes is from 5 mm to 15 mm.
[0025] As can be seen from the above description, if the aperture of the through-hole is designed too large, the heat exchange time of the cooling medium on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe will be correspondingly shortened, which not only increases energy consumption but also affects the cooling effect of the exhaust pipe; if the aperture of the through-hole is designed too small, it is not conducive to the cooling medium entering the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe, reducing the water-vapor mixing effect between the cooling medium and the hot gas, and also causing the cooling effect to be affected.
[0026] Furthermore, a cooling medium inlet is provided on the side wall of the cooling housing, and the flux of the cooling medium inlet is greater than the flux of the through-holes.
[0027] As can be seen from the above description, designing the flux of the cooling medium inlet to be greater than the total flux of the through-holes ensures that the cooling medium should fill the entire chamber and has a certain kinetic energy when passing through the through-holes, so as to achieve better cooling of the side wall of the exhaust pipe and sufficient water-vapor mixing cooling.
[0028] Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe and the cross-sectional shape of the inner wall of the cooling housing are both circular.
[0029] As can be seen from the above description, the circular cross-sectional design increases the heat exchange area between the cooling medium and the exhaust pipe and can reduce the energy consumption generated during the cooling operation.
[0030] Furthermore, the exhaust pipe and the cooling housing are connected by welding.
[0031] As can be seen from the above description, the exhaust pipe and the cooling housing are prefabricated and welded together, which can be directly installed on the required equipment, reducing the difficulty of on-site installation and facilitating production improvement.
[0032] A hull exhaust structure further includes a main engine exhaust pipe and an outer shipboard plate, and both ends of the exhaust pipe are respectively connected to the exhaust port of the main engine exhaust pipe and the exhaust port of the outer shipboard plate.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: A hull exhaust structure is provided, where the intake end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the main engine exhaust pipe, and the outlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the exhaust port on the outer hull plate. According to the working principle of the above cooling structure, the high-temperature gas generated by the main engine passes through the main engine exhaust pipe into the exhaust pipe, and then is cooled to become low-temperature gas under the cooling effect of the cooling structure. The low-temperature gas and the cooling medium are jointly discharged from the exhaust port on the outer hull plate, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect during the ship exhaust process, reducing the heat energy transferred from the exhaust pipe to the hull, and avoiding problems such as paint peeling and aging of the hull caused by heat.
[0034] Furthermore, a refrigeration system is also included. The cooling medium is cooling water, and the cooling water is cooled by the refrigeration system and then introduced into the chamber.
[0035] As can be seen from the above description, seawater can be used for refrigeration in a way that suits local conditions, and the seawater after the cooling operation is directly discharged into the ocean, reducing the energy consumption during the refrigeration process, and being energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
[0036] Furthermore, a seat plate is also included. The seat plate is welded to the inner wall of the outer hull plate, the exhaust pipe is locked to the seat plate, and the seat plate has an opening corresponding to the exhaust port on the outer hull plate.
[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the exhaust pipe is indirectly connected to the hull plate through the seat plate, further reducing the heat conduction ability between the exhaust pipe and the hull plate, playing a certain protective role for the hull plate, avoiding paint peeling and aging due to heat, and improving the stability of the installation structure.

The sleeve is coaxially arranged around the exhaust duct 1, and both ends of the sleeve are connected to the outer wall of the exhaust duct 1 through two annular steel sealing plates respectively.

[0039] The exhaust duct 1 and the cooling housing 2 are prefabricated in an integral workshop. First, through holes 11 are machined on the exhaust duct 1, then the sleeve and the steel sealing plates are correspondingly installed on the outer wall of the exhaust duct 1 with the through holes 11 and welded, and finally the exhaust pipe flange and the connecting pipe flange are welded and installed.

[0043] In summary, the present invention provides a cooling structure. The cooling housing is sleeved on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe, and a chamber for storing and circulating the cooling medium is formed between the inner wall of the cooling housing and the outer wall of the exhaust pipe. This enclosed cooling structure can prevent the temperature in the cabin from rising. Through holes are formed in the wall of the exhaust pipe to connect the chamber with the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe. The cooling medium in the chamber exchanges heat with the outer wall of the exhaust pipe, reducing the temperature of the outer wall of the exhaust pipe. Since the hot gas flow velocity in the exhaust pipe is high and the pressure is low, it is easy for the cooling medium to enter the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe through the through holes and exchange heat with the inner wall of the exhaust pipe, fully achieving the purpose of cooling by mixing water and gas, and having the advantages of energy conservation and consumption reduction. The structural design of using porous to introduce the cooling medium can improve the uniformity and efficiency of heat dissipation of the exhaust pipe, and prevent problems such as aging and carbon deposition caused by uneven wall temperature. Through experiments, it is measured that the through-hole arrangement structure within this range can fully achieve the heat exchange effect between the cooling medium and the pipe wall of the exhaust pipe and the hot gas in the exhaust pipe, and balance the load of the refrigeration system, achieving the purpose of energy conservation and consumption reduction. If the aperture of the through hole is designed too large, the heat exchange time of the cooling medium on the outer wall of the exhaust pipe will be correspondingly shortened, not only increasing energy consumption but also affecting the cooling effect of the exhaust pipe. If the aperture of the through hole is designed too small, it is not conducive to the cooling medium entering the inner cavity of the exhaust pipe, reducing the water-gas mixing effect of the cooling medium and the hot gas, and also resulting in the cooling effect being affected. The flux of the cooling medium inlet is designed to be greater than the total flux of the through holes, that is, to ensure that the cooling medium should fill the entire chamber and have a certain kinetic energy when passing through the through holes, so as to achieve better cooling of the side wall of the exhaust pipe and sufficient cooling by mixing water and vapor. The circular cross-section design increases the heat exchange area between the cooling medium and the exhaust pipe and can reduce the energy consumption generated during the cooling operation. The exhaust pipe and the cooling housing are connected by prefabricated welding and can be directly installed on the required equipment, reducing the difficulty of on-site installation and facilitating production improvement. The present invention also provides a hull exhaust structure. The inlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the main engine exhaust pipe, and the outlet end of the exhaust pipe is connected to the exhaust port on the outer plate of the ship's side. According to the working principle of the above cooling structure, the high-temperature gas generated by the main engine passes through the main engine exhaust pipe into the exhaust pipe, and then cools down to a low-temperature gas under the cooling action of the cooling structure. The low-temperature gas and the cooling medium are jointly discharged from the exhaust port on the outer plate of the ship's side, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect during the ship's exhaust process, reducing the heat energy transferred from the exhaust pipe to the hull, and avoiding problems such as paint peeling and aging of the hull caused by heat. The cooling water is used for refrigeration in a local conditions-adapted manner, and the cooling water after the cooling operation is directly discharged into the ocean, reducing the energy consumption during the refrigeration process, being energy-saving and environment-friendly. The exhaust pipe is indirectly connected to the ship's side plate through a seat plate, further reducing the heat conduction ability between the exhaust pipe and the ship's side plate, playing a certain protective role for the ship's side plate, avoiding its paint peeling and aging due to heat, and improving the stability of the installation structure.
