Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of falling film heat exchangers, and relates to an indirect evaporation falling film heat exchange system with coordinated regulation of ultrasonic atomization and liquid-conducting fibers, and also relates to an indirect evaporation falling film heat exchange method with coordinated regulation of ultrasonic atomization and liquid-conducting fibers. Background Art

[0002] In the development of modern science and technology, evaporative falling film heat transfer technology, as a key branch of phase change heat transfer, has evolved inextricably with the need for efficient thermal management. The core mechanism of this technology is based on the thin layer flow of a liquid film along a vertical or inclined surface driven by gravity, achieving energy exchange through the coupled transfer of sensible and latent heat at the gas-liquid interface. Traditional falling film systems generally utilize smooth tubes or micro-fin tube structures, but these systems are limited by issues such as uneven liquid film distribution and insufficient suppression of interfacial turbulence, resulting in significant discrepancies between actual heat transfer efficiency and theoretical values.

[0003] As research in fluid mechanics deepens, researchers have discovered that liquid film instability caused by dynamic wetting hysteresis is a key factor limiting performance. When the system is perturbed by an external field, the mismatch between substrate surface heterogeneity and the liquid's relaxation properties hinders the motion of the three-phase contact line, forming a localized capillary pressure gradient that ultimately triggers liquid film rupture. To address this, researchers have proposed a multiscale surface modification strategy: using micro- and nanostructured surfaces to enhance liquid film uniformity through capillary suction.

[0004] In modern life, temperature and humidity control achieved through evaporative falling film heat exchange technology is crucial for clothing storage, food preservation, and health management. Traditional methods, such as air drying or simple dehumidifiers, are susceptible to weather conditions and offer inconsistent results. Evaporative falling film heat exchangers, on the other hand, achieve efficient cooling or heating through heat exchange between the liquid film and the air. The large contact area between the liquid film and the air results in high heat exchange efficiency, significantly reducing energy consumption.

[0005] An evaporative falling film heat exchanger is a highly efficient heat exchange device that exchanges heat with a gas or another fluid by forming a thin film of liquid on a vertical surface. Its main components include a liquid distributor (for uniform liquid distribution), a heat transfer surface (for forming the liquid film), a gas channel (for contact and heat exchange with the liquid film), and a housing (for support and sealing). It offers advantages such as high efficiency, energy saving, and compactness, and is widely used in air conditioners, water heaters, and other fields. Traditional falling film heat exchangers often utilize independent modules, resulting in slow response, insufficient control accuracy, unstable liquid film formation, and rupture. Liquid film instability and rupture are a common yet critical issue in falling film heat exchangers. The source of liquid film rupture is the formation of non-equilibrium wetting hysteresis, an imbalance between interfacial energy transfer and dissipation during dynamic wetting. When an external field (such as shear flow, temperature gradient, or mechanical vibration) drives the contact line to move, surface roughness or chemical heterogeneity, coupled with differences in the relaxation rate of liquid molecules, leads to contact angle hysteresis: localized potential barriers on the solid surface hinder the contact line from sliding, causing interfacial stress accumulation and energy dissipation, preventing the system from reaching thermodynamic equilibrium. This non-equilibrium characteristic reshapes the internal stress distribution of the liquid film through capillary pressure gradients, promoting the formation and expansion of localized cavitation nuclei during the drainage process of the nanoscale liquid film, ultimately causing the liquid film to become unstable and rupture. Besides the common problem of liquid film rupture in falling film heat exchangers, existing systems still have significant room for improvement in heat and moisture exchange efficiency, multi-parameter coordinated control, and intelligent management.

[0031] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] This embodiment provides an ultrasonic atomization-liquid-conducting fiber coordinated control indirect evaporation falling film heat exchange system, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a box body 602, and the box body 602 is provided with a primary air inlet, a secondary air inlet, a working air outlet and a product air outlet. The primary air inlet is connected to the primary air inlet unit, and the secondary air inlet is connected to the secondary air inlet unit. A water reservoir 504 is provided in the box body 602, and an ultrasonic atomizer 801 is placed in the water reservoir 504. A circular tube is provided above the water reservoir 504, and the circular tube is provided between the primary air inlet and the product air outlet. A liquid guide fiber 701 is attached to the outer surface of the circular tube, and the liquid guide fiber 701 is guided from the primary air inlet to the product air outlet.

[0034] As shown in Figure 2, liquid-conducting fiber 701 is made of Coolmax fiber. As shown in Figure 2(a), its surface structure is a smooth cylindrical structure when dry and normal, with a relatively flat surface and no noticeable wrinkles or grooves. However, as shown in Figure 2(b), when exposed to a humid and hot environment, the fiber surface swells due to moisture absorption or temperature fluctuations, resulting in wrinkles that form a cross-shaped grooved cross section. This structure resembles four grooves intersecting in a "cross," dividing the circular cross section into four symmetrical raised areas, forming micron-scale liquid-conducting channels. The cross-shaped grooves increase the fiber's specific surface area while also reducing liquid flow resistance through their geometry, promoting axial liquid conduction. In terms of wettability, the groove edges are treated with hydroxylation (e.g., chemically grafting hydroxyl groups) to achieve hydrophilic anchoring, enhancing liquid adsorption. The central region of the grooves is treated with a fluoride coating or low-surface-energy material to create a hydrophobic region, which forms an alternating "hydrophilic-hydrophobic grid structure" with the hydrophilic regions at the edges. The inner walls of the pleated cross-shaped grooves display alternating hydrophilic and hydrophobic stripes, similar to a grid-like distribution. This allows for directional spreading of the liquid film through surface energy differences. The depth and width of the Coolmax fiber's cross-shaped grooves create a pore size gradient. Combined with the hydrophilic and hydrophobic grid structure, this structure drives liquids rapidly along the fiber surface through capillary forces. The cross-shaped cross section reduces the "three-phase contact line" between the liquid and the fiber surface, minimizing the pinning effect and alleviating localized stress concentration, allowing for smoother liquid flow.

[0063] Example 7

[0064] This embodiment provides an ultrasonic atomization-liquid-conducting fiber coordinated control indirect evaporation falling film heat exchange method. The ultrasonic atomization-liquid-conducting fiber coordinated control indirect evaporation falling film heat exchange system of Example 6 is used to achieve air heat exchange, so that the air reaches the expected set temperature and humidity. Specifically:

[0065] The air passes through the primary air inlet unit to exchange sensible heat and latent heat, and is cooled by the first evaporator 201 to obtain primary air, which flows through the liquid guide fiber 701 in the box 602 to the product outlet;

[0066] According to the set air temperature and humidity, it is judged whether the primary air temperature and humidity meet the requirements. If the temperature and humidity all meet the expected settings, the air is directly discharged from the product outlet and the secondary air inlet unit is not turned on. When the temperature meets the requirements but the humidity does not meet the standards, that is, the air needs to be humidified, the air passes through the secondary air inlet unit to obtain pre-treated air. The pre-treated air enters the box 602, and then the liquid water in the water reservoir 504 is atomized by the ultrasonic atomizer 801. The atomized water is mixed with the pre-treated air and flows through the liquid-conducting fiber 701 to form a high-humidity airflow that meets the humidity requirements to obtain secondary air.

[0067] The temperature, humidity, pressure at the primary air inlet, secondary air inlet, product air outlet and product air outlet of the box 602 as well as the temperature inside the water reservoir 504 are monitored and dynamically optimized. If the primary air does not meet the expected temperature and humidity, the secondary air inlet will be used for humidification so that the air discharged from the product air outlet reaches the expected temperature and humidity.
