Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of condenser technology, and more particularly to a multi-stage heat exchange type high-efficiency evaporative condenser. Background Technology

[0002] An evaporative condenser is a heat exchange device that uses the heat absorption of water evaporation to cool the refrigerant or other process fluids inside the condenser tubes. It utilizes the large amount of latent heat absorbed during water evaporation to efficiently remove heat from the fluid inside the tubes. Compared to simple air cooling or water cooling, it combines the advantages of both, significantly improving heat exchange efficiency and greatly reducing water consumption.

[0003] In daily use, during the continuous circulation and evaporation of cooling water in an evaporative condenser, the concentration of minerals (such as calcium and magnesium) in the water becomes increasingly higher, eventually exceeding their solubility. These minerals precipitate and deposit on the surface of the heat exchange tubes and inside the pipes, forming hard scale. Scale has an extremely low thermal conductivity, which severely hinders heat transfer, leading to increased condensing pressure, increased compressor power consumption, and decreased cooling capacity, which seriously restricts the use of the condenser.

[0033] Further, the active control assembly comprises an inner water isolation disc 10 rotatably connected with the inner wall of the water inlet and outlet tank body 4 through a fixed inner ring 9, wherein the fixed inner ring 9 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the water inlet and outlet tank body 4, and the inner water isolation disc 10 is rotatably connected with the fixed inner ring 9, so that the inner water isolation disc 10 can rotate with the water inlet and outlet tank body 4.

The end portion of the support inner tube body 7 extends inwardly through the inner sealing disc 11. The inner sealing disc 11 and the composite end disc 6 can rotate synchronously. Such a structure can seal the structure of the active control assembly by the inner water isolation disc 10 and the inner sealing disc 11.

[0034] An adjusting motor is arranged in the water inlet and outlet tank body 4. The output end of the adjusting motor is fixedly connected with the inner water isolation disc 10 and the rotating end plate 5. The adjusting motor is used to drive the inner water isolation disc 10 and the rotating end plate 5 to rotate synchronously.

[0035] Further, the outer side wall of the support inner tube body 7 is fixedly connected with a self-rotation gear 12. The fixed inner ring 9 is provided with an inner fixed gear ring 13 which is meshingly connected with the self-rotation gear 12.

The composite tube body 8 is composed of the heat exchange tube body 802 and the fin strip 803, which greatly increases the effective heat exchange area.

[0037] It should be noted that the arc-shaped cleaning bottom disc 20 is close to the outer wall of the composite tube body 8. When the composite tube body 8 is driven to rotate, the fin strip 803 arranged on the surface layer of the composite tube body 8 will be in contact with the inner wall of the arc-shaped cleaning bottom disc 20, so as to extrude the fin strip 803 and make the fin strip 803 move inwardly. When extruded, the scale originally condensed on the surface layer of the composite tube body 8 will be broken. The inward movement of the fin strip 803 will drive the extrusion lining 804 connected thereto to be internally pressed, so as to extrude and deform the flexibly arranged corrosion-resistant inner tube 801, and also clean the blockage condensed in the corrosion-resistant inner tube 801.

[0038] It should be noted that the plurality of composite pipe bodies 8 is a group of annular distribution, the annular distribution of the composite pipe body 8 provides a channel for the wind delivery, increases the contact area with the air, combines the top spray evaporation and axial flow air cooling, combines the high efficiency of water cooling and the water saving advantage of air cooling, realizes the extremely high heat exchange efficiency.

[0040] It should be noted that the bottom of the communication water changing disc 16 is in a closed state, so the group of composite pipe bodies 8 at the lowermost position is in a non-working state, so when the groups of composite pipe bodies 8 above are working, the group of composite pipe bodies 8 at the bottom is in a continuous cleaning state of the high-frequency cleaning module.

[0041] It is worth noting that the middle positions of the communication water changing disc 16 and the connecting end plate 17 are hollow, which improves the ventilation area of the air inlet channel.

[0042] The box body 2 is provided with a spray module 3 for cooling the composite heat exchange module, further, the spray module 3 is provided with two groups, which are arranged above the composite pipe bodies 8 on both sides.

[0043] The box body 2 is provided with an axial flow air cooling module for air cooling heat exchange of the composite heat exchange module, further, the axial flow air cooling module includes an air outlet 21 arranged on the top of the box body 2, the air outlet 21 is arranged above the supporting inner pipe body 7, the air outlet 21 is provided with an axial flow fan, and the box body 2 is provided with an air inlet 22 close to the dynamic communication device.

[0044] The water collecting base 1 is provided with a high-frequency cleaning module for periodic cleaning of the composite heat exchange module, the high-frequency cleaning module includes an arc-shaped cleaning base plate 20 arranged in the water collecting base 1, the arc-shaped cleaning base plate 20 is soaked in the circulating water in the water collecting base 1, and the arc-shaped cleaning base plate 20 is provided with an ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic generator is a prior art, which can realize ultrasonic cleaning of a group of composite pipe bodies 8 at the arc-shaped cleaning base plate 20, so as to ensure effective cleaning of the scale on the composite pipe body 8.

[0045] The high-efficiency evaporative condenser works, and the medium is transported through the inlet and outlet water tank body 4 on one side, and the medium is transported under the action of the conveying pressure and enters the composite pipe body 8 through the support inner pipe body 7. Under the action of the spray module 3, the circulating water is continuously sprayed on the surface of the composite pipe body 8. At this time, the medium in the inside is effectively cooled under the action of the spray, and the steam is quickly volatilized under the action of the axial flow fan, and the heat exchange effect is improved.

[0046] When the evaporative condenser runs to the predetermined time, scale is generated on the composite pipe body 8 located on the upper layer. At this time, the control adjustment motor drives the rotating end plate 5 to rotate, so that the plurality of composite pipe bodies 8 connected through the composite end disc 6 are rotated, so that the position of the composite pipe body 8 located on the uppermost is changed, and the position of the composite pipe body 8 located on the uppermost directly contacting the circulating water is gradually adjusted. When the rotating end plate 5 is driven to rotate, the composite end disc 6 is rotated under the action of the self-rotating gear ring 14 under the action of the outer fixed gear ring 15, so that the position of the composite pipe body 8 and the position of the composite pipe body 8 located on the uppermost directly contacting the circulating water are gradually changed.

[0047] In this process, the support inner pipe body 7 drives the composite pipe body 8 to rotate under the action of the inner fixed gear ring 13 and the self-rotating gear 12. At this time, the composite pipe body 8 located on the lowermost makes the fin rib 803 provided on the surface layer of the composite pipe body 8 contact the inner wall of the arc-shaped cleaning bottom disc 20, so that the fin rib 803 is extruded and moves inward. When extruded, the scale originally condensed on the surface layer of the composite pipe body 8 is broken, and the fin rib 803 moves inward, drives the extrusion inner lining 804 connected therein to be internally pressed, extrudes the corrosion-resistant inner pipe 801 provided with flexibility, deforms, and can also clean the blockage condensed in the corrosion-resistant inner pipe 801.

[0048] When the composite pipe body 8 needs to be removed and moves to the bottom (in a non-working state), it directly contacts the arc-shaped cleaning bottom disc 20 below. At this time, the high-frequency cleaning module provided at the arc-shaped cleaning bottom disc 20 can realize ultrasonic cleaning of the scale on the broken composite pipe body 8, so that the evaporative condenser is always in an efficient working state.

[0049] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
