[0028] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0029] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in the embodiments of the present application should be understood as the common meanings understood by those skilled in the art to which the embodiments of the present application belong. The terms “first”, “second” and similar terms used in the embodiments of the present application do not represent any order, number or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. The terms “include” or “contain” and similar terms mean that the elements or objects before the terms cover the elements or objects listed after the terms and their equivalents, and do not exclude other elements or objects. The terms “connect” or “connected” and similar terms do not mean physical or mechanical connection, but can include electrical connection, whether direct or indirect.

[0030] ​​​​​​The traditional design method of clamping studs generally calculates the uniform load model of clamping studs according to the circular flange considered in section 9.5.2 of GB / T150.3, which is referred to as the uniform load method. For the rectangular compression plate of a large plate heat exchanger, the load corresponding to each clamping stud is the same when designed by the uniform load method. In the past, when the scale was small and the pressure requirement was low, there were few application quality problems. However, in some working conditions such as petroleum chemical industry and nuclear power, the size of the corner hole of the heat exchanger reaches DN500 or more, the assembly area of a single unit jumps to 4000m² or more, and the highest design pressure increases to 3.6MPa. Higher and higher requirements are put forward for the pressure-bearing capacity and operation safety of large plate heat exchangers.

[0031] The traditional calculation method ignores the non-uniform layout of the position, number and distribution spacing of the clamping studs of the rectangular compression plate. According to the traditional calculation method, stress concentration problems of the clamping studs may occur, which may cause local overload of the clamping studs, insufficient service life, and even leakage accidents, threatening the continuous and safe operation of the equipment.

[0032] In the process of implementing the present application, it is found that the compression plate of a plate heat exchanger is generally rectangular in structure, and four corner holes are distributed near the four corner ends. The periphery of the corner hole is a flange or a nozzle. In order to avoid interference between the peripheral clamping studs and the flange or nozzle of the corner hole, the arrangement spacing of the clamping studs near the corner hole is usually different from that of other clamping studs (see Figure 3 ), At the same time, due to the connection of guide rods, the reservation of lifting holes and other situations, the distance from the compression plate long side and short side to the internal stress area is different or the distribution spacing is different. The clamping studs are affected by the layout position, spacing and aspect ratio of the compression plate, and the stress is not uniform, which leads to the fact that the actual stress borne by part of the clamping studs does not meet the standard requirements, or the local design margin is too large, causing waste of cost.

[0033] Some technologies use finite element analysis method to calculate the load of the clamping stud. Finite element analysis method is a numerical analysis method based on mathematical approximation, which realizes the simulation solution of complex engineering problems by discretizing the continuous physical system into a finite number of interconnected units. Although the calculation result of finite element analysis method is relatively accurate, this method requires high modeling requirements, needs to calculate various parameters and boundary conditions, consumes a large amount of calculation resources, is time-consuming and laborious, and has high cost, and is not suitable for daily calculation. Therefore, a more simple and accurate method is needed.

[0034] The area of the stress area of the compression plate and the influence of the centroid distribution on the load of the clamping stud can be considered. From this point of view, a new clamping stud load distribution calculation method is designed to simplify the calculation process, improve the accuracy of load distribution calculation, and reduce the manufacturing cost.

[0035] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below by specific examples and in conjunction with Figures 1 to 9 .

[0036] In some embodiments of the present application, an area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method is provided, which is applied to plate heat exchangers, such as Figure 2 , which is a structural schematic diagram of a plate heat exchanger. The plate heat exchanger includes a compression plate and a plurality of clamping studs. The compression plate includes a fixed compression plate and a movable compression plate. A plurality of stacked heat exchange plates are arranged between the fixed compression plate and the movable compression plate. The structure of the heat exchange plate is shown in, for example Figure 4 , a sealing gasket is arranged between adjacent heat exchange plates, and the structure of the sealing gasket is shown in, for example Figure 5 ; a guide rod and a clamping stud are connected between the fixed compression plate and the movable compression plate, and the heat exchange plate is suspended on the guide rod.

[0037] As shown in Figure 3 , which is a structural schematic diagram of a compression plate, suspension holes are arranged at the top of both sides of the compression plate for transferring the compression plate. The top and bottom of the compression plate are also provided with insertion holes for cooperating with the guide rod. A plurality of slot holes are arranged on the outer periphery of the compression plate, for example, a total of 12 slot holes are arranged, each slot hole cooperates with a clamping stud, and the plurality of slot holes are distributed in axial symmetry along an axis parallel to the length direction of the compression plate, and the L line in the figure is the axis. As shown in Figure 3 , the inside of the compression plate is provided with a total hydraulic force area, which is the total area of all clamping studs that need to bear hydraulic pressure, including an angle hole area, a flow guide area, and a heat exchange area. The edge of the total hydraulic force area corresponds to the shape of the outer periphery of the sealing gasket. The tensioning of the clamping stud is mainly to prevent the force area from leaking.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 , the area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method includes the following steps:

[0039] S1, on one side of the compression plate along the axis, the axes of adjacent clamping studs are connected to obtain a plurality of center lines, and a vertical bisector is drawn for each center line. A plurality of vertical bisectors and the axis divide the total hydraulic force area into a plurality of sub-areas, and the sub-areas are arranged one by one corresponding to the slot holes.

[0040] Because the clamping studs of the compression plate are distributed in axial symmetry, the distribution of only one side can be calculated, and the distribution of the other side is the same as that of the side, which can also simplify the calculation amount.

[0041] As shown in Figure 6 , the area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method includes the following steps:As shown, in the left area of the compression plate, six clamping studs L1-L6 are included. Due to the influence of factors such as angle hole distribution and length-width ratio, the distribution spacing and position of the clamping studs cannot be completely uniformly arranged, and the stress area corresponding to the clamping studs is different. For the clamping studs L1 or L6, since they are far away from the edge of the sealing gasket, and the stress area of the hydraulic pressure distributed along the width direction of the compression plate is narrow, the hydraulic stress area directly acting on them is small, so the hydraulic load they share is small. For L3 or L4, since the distribution spacing along the length direction of the compression plate is large, the hydraulic stress area is large, and the hydraulic load they share is also large.

[0042] Based on this, the axes of the clamping studs adjacent to the left are connected to obtain five center lines, the midpoints H1-H5 of each center line are found, and a vertical bisector is made on each midpoint. The vertical bisector divides the left side into six sub-areas A1-A6, each sub-area corresponds to a clamping stud, so as to perform subsequent hydraulic load calculation.

[0043] S2, calculate the first hydraulic distribution load of each clamping stud according to the area of each sub-area, wherein the first hydraulic distribution load is positively correlated with the area of the sub-area corresponding to the clamping stud.

[0044] The first hydraulic distribution load W of each clamping stud can be set as W i =A i ×P, unit: N, wherein A i is the area of the sub-area corresponding to each clamping stud, which can be obtained through simple calculation, and P is the design pressure, which can be obtained in advance according to design requirements. For the L1 clamping stud, the first hydraulic distribution load W1 is A1×P z , and so on, so that the first hydraulic distribution load of the clamping stud is positively correlated with the area of the sub-area corresponding to the clamping stud. All the first hydraulic distribution loads, i.e., the total hydraulic stress area, correspond to the total hydraulic clamping load W z1 .

[0045] By dividing the sub-areas, the sub-areas are matched with the grooves, and then the hydraulic load of the corresponding clamping stud is distributed according to the area size. Tests show that, compared with the uniform load method in the traditional technology, the accuracy of distribution can be greatly improved, and compared with the finite element analysis method, the calculation amount can be greatly reduced.

[0046] The clamping stud load distribution calculation method based on area is referred to as area method. The area method is simple and convenient, can accurately calculate the load distribution of the clamping stud, reduce the manufacturing cost, and ensure the safe operation of the equipment.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, a centroid-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method is provided, which comprises:

[0048] S1' On one side of the clamping plate along the axis, a plurality of center lines are obtained by connecting the axes of adjacent clamping studs. A corresponding perpendicular bisector is made for each center line. The plurality of perpendicular bisectors and the axis divide the total hydraulic force area into a plurality of sub-regions, and the sub-regions are set one-to-one with the slots.

[0049] S2' Calculate the first hydraulic distribution load for each clamping stud based on the area of ​​each sub-region, wherein the first hydraulic distribution load is positively correlated with the area of ​​the sub-region corresponding to the clamping stud.

[0050] Steps S1'-S2' are the same as the aforementioned steps S1-S2, and the effects will not be repeated here.

[0051] S3'. On one side of the clamping plate along the axis, the adjacent sub-regions form a merged area. The centroid of the merged area is calculated, and the centroid line is obtained by connecting the centroid with the axis of the clamping stud corresponding to the merged area.

[0052] After obtaining the first hydraulic load distribution, the hydraulic load distribution method can be further adjusted, for example, by taking into account the influence of the centroid of the force zone, in order to improve the accuracy of load distribution.

[0053] like Figure 7 As shown, in Figure 6 Based on this, we continue to consider the influence of the centroid, and combine adjacent sub-regions to form merged regions A1+A2, A3+A4, A5+A6, etc. The merged region includes the first sub-region and the second sub-region. For the merged region A1+A2, the first sub-region is A1 and the second sub-region is A2. Calculate the centroid C1 of the merged region, and connect the centroid C1 with the axis of the clamping studs L1 and L2 corresponding to the merged region to obtain two centroid lines D11 and D12. The centroid lines include the first centroid line passing through the first sub-region and the second centroid line passing through the second sub-region. For the merged region, the first centroid line is D11 and the second centroid line is D12.

[0054] S4' Calculate the second hydraulic distribution load for each clamping stud based on the first hydraulic distribution load and the centroid line, wherein the second hydraulic distribution load is negatively correlated with the length of the centroid line corresponding to the clamping stud.

[0055] The second hydraulic load distribution W of the clamping stud corresponding to the first sub-region j1 =(W i1 +W i2 )×D j2 / (D j1 +D j2 The unit is N, and the second hydraulic distribution load W of the clamping stud corresponding to the second sub-region is...j2 = (W i1 +W i2 ) x D j1 / (D j1 +D j2 ), unit: N, wherein, W i1 is the first hydraulic distribution load corresponding to the first sub-area, W i2 is the first hydraulic distribution load corresponding to the second sub-area, D j1 is the length of the first centroid line, and D j2 is the length of the second centroid line. For example, for the combined area A1+A2, the second hydraulic distribution load W j1 of the clamping stud L1 is (W i1 +W i2 ) x D12 / (D11+D12), and the second hydraulic distribution load W j2 of the clamping stud L2 is (W i1 +W i2 ) x D11 / (D11+D12). Similarly, the second hydraulic distribution load of the clamping stud is negatively correlated with the length of the centroid line corresponding to the clamping stud.

[0056] By dividing the sub-areas, the sub-areas are corresponded to the slots, and then the first hydraulic distribution load of the corresponding clamping stud is distributed according to the area size. The first distribution load is adjusted according to the length of the centroid line to distribute the second hydraulic distribution load of the corresponding clamping stud. Tests show that, compared with the uniform load method in the traditional technology, the accuracy of distribution can be greatly improved, and compared with the finite element analysis method, the calculation amount can be greatly reduced.

[0057] The centroid-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method is referred to as the centroid method. The centroid method is simple and convenient, and can also accurately calculate the load distribution of the clamping stud, reduce the manufacturing cost, and ensure the safe operation of the equipment.

[0058] In some embodiments, along the axial direction, the clamping studs located at the head and tail each correspond to one combined area, and each clamping stud except the head and tail corresponds to two overlapping combined areas; the final second distribution load W j of each clamping stud except the head and tail is (W j2_1 +W j1_2 ) / 2, unit: N, wherein, W j2_1 is the second hydraulic distribution load calculated according to the first combined area of the clamping stud, and W j1_2 is the second hydraulic distribution load calculated according to the second combined area of the clamping stud.

[0059] As Figure 7As shown, for clamping studs L1 and L6, only one merged area can be corresponding, for example, L1 corresponds to merged area A1+A2, and L6 corresponds to merged area A5+A6, but for other clamping studs, two overlapping merged areas can be corresponding, for example, L2 corresponds to merged area A1+A2 and merged area A2+A3, at this time, the second hydraulic distribution load of the clamping stud in each merged area can be calculated according to the aforementioned centroid method, and then the final second hydraulic distribution load is obtained after averaging, that is, the final second hydraulic distribution load W j =(W j2_1 +W j1_2 ) / 2, wherein W j2_1 is the second hydraulic distribution load of the clamping stud calculated according to the first merged area, and W j1_2 is the second hydraulic distribution load of the clamping stud calculated according to the second merged area.

[0060] For example, for clamping stud L2, W j =(W j2_1 +W j1_2 ) / 2, wherein the second hydraulic distribution load W j2_1 =(W i1 +W i2 )×D11 / (D11+D12) of the clamping stud calculated according to the merged area A1+A2, and the second hydraulic distribution load W j1_2 =(W i3 +W i4 )×D22 / (D21+D22) of the clamping stud calculated according to the merged area A2+A3 are considered to take into account the influence of adjacent sub-regions on the clamping stud load.

[0061] In some embodiments, the centroid-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method further comprises:

[0062] S5', calculating the sum of the second hydraulic distribution loads of all the clamping studs, and subtracting the total hydraulic clamping load of the plurality of clamping studs to obtain a difference value.

[0063] S6', correcting the second hydraulic distribution load according to the difference value to obtain the third hydraulic distribution load of each clamping stud.

[0064] According to the aforementioned centroid method, the second hydraulic distribution load of each clamping stud is calculated and the sum is calculated, and the sum can not be equal to the total hydraulic clamping load, and the centroid method is modified for this case, which is referred to as the centroid modification method. Subtract the total hydraulic clamping load from the sum to obtain a difference value Q, and calculate the third hydraulic distribution load W k =W jQ / n, unit: N, where n is the total number of clamping studs. The third hydraulic distribution load of each clamping stud is summed up and equal to the total hydraulic clamping load, meeting the design requirements.

[0065] In some embodiments, the corner of the pressing plate is provided with an angle hole, and the nominal diameter of the angle hole is less than 300 mm.

[0066] The nominal diameter of the angle hole is, for example, 100 mm, 150 mm, 200 mm, or 250 mm, etc. Experimental tests show that when the size of the angle hole is less than 300 mm, the accuracy of the clamping stud load distribution calculated by the area method is significantly better than that calculated by the centroid method.

[0067] It should be noted here that the thickness of the pressing plate of the centroid method and the area method meets the calculation requirements of section 7.9.4 of GB / T150.3, has moderate stiffness and small deflection, the clamping stud mainly bears tensile stress, and the bending stress can be ignored; the clamping stud is distributed along the outer peripheral ring line of the pressing plate, and the inside of the pressing plate bears a closed and continuous uniform load. The clamping studs are symmetrically arranged along the longitudinal center line, and the stress area of the pressing plate is symmetrically distributed along the longitudinal center line.

[0068] In some embodiments, the area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method further comprises:

[0069] S3, calculating the gasket distribution load of each clamping stud according to the length of the sealing gasket corresponding to each sub-area, wherein the gasket distribution load is positively correlated with the length of the sealing gasket corresponding to the clamping stud.

[0070] In a plate heat exchanger, the clamping stud not only needs to bear the hydraulic load, but also needs to bear the load of the clamping sealing gasket. In the related art, the gasket distribution load of each clamping stud is calculated according to the average value, and the accuracy is poor. The present embodiment uses the aforementioned divided sub-area to distribute the gasket load, and the length of the sealing gasket corresponding to each clamping stud in the corresponding sub-area is different, as shown in Figure 8 Fig. 5, ignoring the influence of the gasket in the inner secondary sealing area 50, the outer peripheral lengths of the sealing gasket corresponding to the six sub-areas A1-A6 are d1-d6, respectively, and the gasket distribution load can be set to be positively correlated with the length of the sealing gasket corresponding to the clamping stud, for example, the gasket distribution load W p of each clamping stud is d i ×b×m×P, unit: N, where d iFor the length of the gasket corresponding to each sub-area, b is the effective sealing width of the gasket, and m is the gasket coefficient of the gasket. By dividing the sub-area, the sub-area is corresponded to the slot hole, and then the gasket load of the corresponding clamping stud is distributed according to the length of the gasket corresponding to the sub-area. Through testing, compared with the uniform load method in the traditional technology, the accuracy of the distribution can be greatly improved, and compared with the finite element analysis method, the calculation amount can be greatly reduced. All gasket distribution loads, i.e. the total gasket clamping load W z2 .

[0071] S4, calculating the final distribution load of each clamping stud according to the gasket distribution load and the first hydraulic distribution load, the final distribution load W z = i + W p .

[0072] After obtaining the gasket distribution load, the final distribution load of each clamping stud can be calculated, and the final distribution load is the sum of the first hydraulic distribution load and the gasket distribution load. The method can also verify the frame which has completed the layout of the clamping stud position after standard design calculation, ensure that each clamping stud meets the standard requirements, improve the design reliability, and ensure the safety of the equipment operation. In addition, by effectively finding the unevenness of the clamping stud distribution, the clamping stud layout can also be optimized, such as reducing the diameter or number of clamping studs, etc., to save product manufacturing costs.

[0073] It should be noted here that the sum of the first hydraulic distribution load or the third hydraulic distribution load of all clamping studs can obtain the total hydraulic clamping load of the plate heat exchanger, the sum of the gasket distribution load of all clamping studs can obtain the total gasket clamping load of the plate heat exchanger, and the sum of the total gasket clamping load and the total hydraulic clamping load can obtain the total clamping load of the plate heat exchanger.

[0074] According to the standard GB / T150.3, the total clamping load can be calculated by first calculating the minimum clamping load of multiple clamping studs of the plate heat exchanger in the pre-tightening state, and then calculating the minimum clamping load of multiple clamping studs of the plate heat exchanger in the operating state. Compare the two minimum clamping loads, and take the minimum clamping load with the larger value as the total clamping load. Among them, the minimum clamping load W m2 of multiple clamping studs of the plate heat exchanger in the pre-tightening state is 3.14b×G×y, unit: N, G is the diameter of the gasket at the position of the reaction load, and y is the pressure ratio of the gasket. The minimum clamping load W m1 of multiple clamping studs of the plate heat exchanger in the operating state is z1 + W z2 , unit: N, W z1 is the total hydraulic clamping load, and W z2W z1 =A z ×P, in N, where A z is the total area of the hydraulic force receiving area; W z2 =d z ×b×m×P, in N, where d z is the total length of the outer circumference of the gasket. But because W m2 is usually smaller than W m1 , the process of numerical comparison can be omitted here, and the minimum clamping load of the plurality of clamping studs in the operating state is taken as the total clamping load.

[0075] In some embodiments, the area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method further comprises:

[0076] S5, calculating the final tensile stress F z =W z / s of each clamping stud according to the final distribution load, in MPa, where s is the design cross-sectional area of the clamping stud.

[0077] After obtaining the final distribution load, the tensile stress of each clamping stud can be calculated, and the design cross-sectional area can be obtained according to the design requirements. After obtaining the tensile stress, it can be compared with the allowable stress in the relevant standard to determine whether it meets the requirements. For example, if the tensile stress exceeds the allowable stress range, the clamping stud needs to be adjusted to meet the stress range requirements.

[0078] In some embodiments, the area-based clamping stud load distribution calculation method further comprises:

[0079] S5, calculating the design diameter of each clamping stud according to the final distribution load , where S is the allowable stress of the clamping stud material, in MPa.

[0080] S6, calculating the actual diameter of the clamping stud according to the design diameter, the actual diameter being greater than the design diameter.

[0081] After obtaining the final distribution load, the design diameter of each clamping stud can be calculated, and the allowable stress of the clamping stud material can be obtained in advance. The obtained design diameter is the minimum diameter of the clamping stud design, and according to the design diameter, the actual clamping stud can be selected, for example, a clamping stud with a slightly larger actual diameter than the design diameter is selected, which meets the clamping requirements while reducing costs.
