Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heat transfer capacity evaluation of heat exchangers, and in particular to a heat transfer coefficient determination method and device, equipment and medium for heat exchangers. BACKGROUND

[0002] Waste heat utilization is relatively widespread in oilfield production, including oilfield process heat, water mixing heat for oil transfer stations, and dehydration heat for joint stations. Plate heat exchangers are suitable for pure fluids and are suitable for, for example, sewage heat exchange and crude oil heat exchange. Wide channel heat exchangers have a channel width of 30 mm and have certain advantages for complex and dirty media in the water mixing system. Currently, the problems encountered after the heat exchanger is put into operation are that the outlet temperature of the wide channel heat exchanger drops too quickly after being put into operation, and the temperature cannot meet the production requirements, and it is urgent to understand the heat transfer coefficient of the wide channel heat exchanger. Currently, only the theoretical heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger just out of the factory can be given, and the accurate heat transfer coefficient value of the heat exchanger in operation cannot be calculated. The temperature of the plate heat exchanger drops too quickly after being flushed and put into operation, and through preliminary analysis, it is due to the fouling of the heat exchanger.

[0003] Through timely scale removal, the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger can be improved, but if the plate heat exchanger and the wide channel heat exchanger are cleaned in advance, the scale removal cost will be wasted; if the heat exchanger is delayed for scale removal, heat will be wasted, and therefore, the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger needs to be grasped in a timely manner to determine the optimal scale removal time. The existing heat transfer coefficient calculation formula of the heat exchanger is as follows:

[0004]

[0005] In the formula, α1 is the heat transfer coefficient of the heat source medium; α2 is the heat transfer coefficient of the heated medium; δ1 is the thickness of the heat exchange wall plate; δ2 is the thickness of the scale; γ1 is the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchange wall plate; and γ2 is the heat transfer coefficient of the scale.

[0006] The existing heat transfer coefficient calculation formula has many values when calculating. After the heat exchanger is put into operation, scale will be generated on the heat exchange surface, but since the heat exchanger has already been put into operation, it cannot be directly opened for measurement, and it is necessary to wait until the heat exchanger is opened for cleaning to measure the scale formation degree of the heat exchange surface, take a sample for scale component analysis, and then calculate the heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, the heat transfer coefficient of the scale cannot be obtained in a timely manner. The heat transfer coefficients of the heat source medium and the heated medium are related to factors such as flow state, and the heat transfer coefficients of the heat source medium and the heated medium are also difficult to calculate. Therefore, the K value of the heat exchanger after being put into operation cannot be accurately calculated, the scale formation degree of the heat exchange surface cannot be judged, the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger cannot be given in a timely and accurate manner, and the production requirements cannot be met.

As shown, Figures 1-3 A heat transfer coefficient determination method of a heat exchanger includes: step S01: obtaining inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heating side medium of a heat exchanger, and flow, inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heated side medium, and a heat exchange amount calculation formula; step S02: determining a heat transfer coefficient calculation formula according to the heat exchange amount calculation formula; step S03: determining a heat exchange amount of the heat exchanger according to the flow, inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heated side medium; and step S04: determining a heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger by using the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula according to the heat exchange amount, the inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heating side medium of the heat exchanger, and the inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heated side medium.

[0060] The heat transfer coefficient determination method of the heat exchanger provided by the embodiment of the present application specifically includes the following steps:

[0061] Step S01: obtaining inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heating side medium of a heat exchanger, and flow, inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heated side medium, and a heat exchange amount calculation formula.

[0062] In the present application, the method for obtaining inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heating side medium of a heat exchanger, and inlet temperature and outlet temperature of a heated side medium includes: a first temperature meter is arranged on an inlet pipeline and an outlet pipeline of the heating side of the heat exchanger, and the first temperature meter is used to detect inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heating side medium of the heat exchanger; a second temperature meter is arranged on an inlet pipeline and an outlet pipeline of the heated side of the heat exchanger, and the second temperature meter is used to detect inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heated side medium of the heat exchanger.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, a first temperature meter is installed on the inlet pipeline and the outlet pipeline of the heating side of the heat exchanger respectively, and the temperature of the heating side medium is detected by the first temperature meter; meanwhile, a second temperature meter is installed on the inlet pipeline and the outlet pipeline of the heated side of the heat exchanger respectively, and the temperature of the heated side medium is detected by the second temperature meter. The heat exchanger includes a plate heat exchanger and a wide channel heat exchanger, the heating side medium of the heat exchanger is sewage, and the heated side is softened water.

[0064] The flow of the heat exchanger can be detected by setting a flow meter in the heated side pipeline, or the displacement (flow) of the heated medium can be determined by the current value of the heat exchanger water pump.

[0065] Taking a certain plate heat exchanger as an example, the heating side (sewage): flow = 447.7 m 3 / h, inlet temperature 35.2 DEG C, outlet temperature 33.4 DEG C; the heated side medium (softened water): flow = 398.3 m 3 / h, inlet temperature 32.4 DEG C, outlet temperature 34.4 DEG C.

[0066] Taking a certain wide channel heat exchanger as an example, the heating side (sewage): flow = 58.66 m 3 / h, inlet temperature 35.9 DEG C, outlet temperature 51.3 DEG C; the heated side medium (softened water): flow = m 3 / h, inlet temperature 60.8 DEG C, outlet temperature 49.1 DEG C.

[0067] Step S02: determining a heat transfer coefficient calculation formula according to the heat exchange calculation formula.

[0068] In the present application, the heat exchange calculation formula comprises:

[0069] Q = kF△t (1);

[0070] In the formula, Q is the heat exchange amount, W; F is the heat exchange area of the heat exchanger, m 2 ;△t is the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger, DEG C; k is the heat transfer coefficient, W / (m 2 · DEG C).

[0071] In the present application, the method for determining the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula according to the heat exchange calculation formula comprises: moving the heat transfer coefficient in the heat exchange calculation formula from the right side of the equal sign to the left side of the equal sign, and moving the heat exchange amount from the left side of the equal sign to the right side of the equal sign at the same time, to obtain the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, in formula (1), Q is the heat flow through the heat transfer surface per unit time; F is the heat transfer calculation area; △t is the temperature difference between the hot fluid and the cold fluid, commonly known as the heat transfer temperature difference; k is the heat transfer coefficient, which is equal in value to the heat transferred per unit heat transfer area per unit time when the heat transfer temperature difference is 1℃; F is the heat transfer calculation area, which can be obtained by checking the heat exchanger model.

[0073] The existing heat exchange amount calculation formula is obtained by multiplying the heat transfer coefficient k, the heat transfer calculation area F and the temperature difference △t of the heat exchanger at both ends, therefore, by transforming formula (1), the heat transfer coefficient k calculation formula based on the heat exchange amount Q, the heat transfer calculation area F and the temperature difference △t of the heat exchanger at both ends can be obtained.

[0074] By setting temperature and flow detection instruments on site, the heat exchanger field data can be collected to calculate the total heat transfer coefficient K of the heat exchanger. In the case of relatively stable flow, it is used to evaluate the degree of fouling of the heat exchanger and guide the operation management and cleaning work of the heat exchanger on site.

[0075] Step S03: determining the heat exchange amount of the heat exchanger according to the flow, inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heated side medium.

[0076] In the present application, the method for determining the heat exchange amount of the heat exchanger according to the flow, inlet temperature and outlet temperature of the heated side medium comprises: determining the heat exchange amount of the heat exchanger by using formula (2).

[0077] Q=A*1.16*(T2-T1)*1000 (2);

[0078] In the formula, Q is the heat exchange amount; A is the flow of the heated side medium; T2 is the outlet temperature of the heated side medium, ℃; T1 is the inlet temperature of the heated side medium, ℃.

[0079] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to determine the heat transfer coefficient according to the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula, it is necessary to first determine the value Q of the heat exchange amount in the formula. However, the heat exchange amount Q cannot be calculated by formula (1) because there is an unknown parameter k in formula (1) at this time, therefore, the heat exchange amount Q needs to be calculated according to the flow, outlet temperature and inlet temperature of the heated side medium of the heat exchanger, that is, formula (2).

[0080] The flow of the heated side medium in formula (2) is obtained by detecting the flow meter; the outlet temperature and the inlet temperature of the heated side medium are obtained by detecting the second thermometer.

[0081] Taking a certain plate heat exchanger as an example, the flow of the heated side medium (softened water) is 398.3m 3 / h, the inlet temperature 32.4℃, the outlet temperature 34.4℃. Then the heat exchange Q=398.3*1.16*(34.4-32.4)*1000=929367W.

[0082] Taking a certain wide flow channel heat exchanger as an example, the heated side medium (softened water): flow rate=58.66m 3 / h, the inlet temperature 60.8℃, the outlet temperature 49.1℃. Then the heat exchange Q=58.66*1.16*(51.3-35.9)*1000=1053924.7W.

[0083] Step S04: according to the heat exchange, the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heat exchanger heating side medium, and the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heated side medium, the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula is used to determine the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger.

[0084] In the application, the method for determining the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger according to the heat exchange, the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heat exchanger heating side medium, and the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heated side medium, and the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula, comprises: obtaining the heat exchange area of the heat exchanger; determining the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger according to the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heat exchanger heating side medium, and the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heated side medium; and determining the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger according to the heat exchange, the heat exchange area and the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger, and the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula.

[0085] In the application, the method for determining the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger according to the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heat exchanger heating side medium, and the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heated side medium, comprises: determining the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger by formula (3).

[0086] △t= [(T1-t2)-(T2-t1)] / ln[(T1-t2)÷(T2-t1)] (3);

[0087] In the formula, △t is the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger, T1 and T2 are the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heated side medium of the heat exchanger respectively, and t1 and t2 are the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature of the heat exchanger heating side medium respectively.

[0088] In the embodiment of the application, taking a certain plate heat exchanger as an example; the hot side inlet temperature is 35.2℃, the outlet temperature is 33.4℃; the heated side inlet temperature is 32.4℃, the outlet temperature is 34.4℃.

[0089] Therefore, the temperature difference between the two ends of the plate heat exchanger is:

[0090] Δt = [(32.4-33.4)-(34.4-35.2)] / ln[(32.4-33.4)÷(34.4-35.2)] = 0.8963.

[0091] For example, the wide channel heat exchanger has a heating side inlet temperature of 35.9℃ and an outlet temperature of 51.3℃; the heated side has an inlet temperature of 60.8℃ and an outlet temperature of 49.1℃.

[0092] Therefore, the temperature difference between the two ends of the wide channel heat exchanger is:

[0093] Δt = [(60.8-51.3)-(49.1-35.9)] / ln[(60.8-51.3)÷(49.1-35.9)] = 11.25.

[0094] In the present application, the heat transfer coefficient calculation formula comprises:

[0095]

[0096] In the formula, K is the heat transfer coefficient, W / (m 2 ·℃); Q is the heat exchange amount, W; F is the heat exchange area, m 2 ; and Δt is the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger, ℃.

[0097] In an embodiment of the present application, for example, a plate heat exchanger has a heat exchange area of 1002.96m 2 , and the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger is 0.8963, and the heat exchange amount Q is 929367W, and the heat transfer coefficient K of the heat exchanger is calculated by using formula (4) as follows:

[0098] K = 929367 / (1002.96 x 0.8963) = 1033.85 W / (m 2 ·℃).

[0099] For example, a wide channel heat exchanger has a heat exchange area of 250m 2 , and the temperature difference between the two ends of the heat exchanger is 11.25, and the heat exchange amount Q is 1053924.7W, and the heat transfer coefficient K of the heat exchanger is calculated by using formula (4) as follows:

[0100] K = 1053924.7 / (250 x 11.25) = 374.77 W / (m 2 ·℃).

[0101] In the present application, the reduction amplitude of the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger compared to the initial operation stage is determined; if the reduction amplitude is less than the limit value of the heat transfer coefficient reduction amplitude, the heat exchanger continues to operate; if the reduction amplitude is greater than or equal to the limit value of the heat transfer coefficient reduction amplitude, the heat exchanger is cleaned.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, according to the energy efficiency value level of the heat exchanger, the limit value of the heat transfer coefficient reduction range is determined.

[0103] The energy efficiency value level of the heat exchanger is determined, and the energy efficiency value level division standard is shown in Table 1.

[0104] Table 1: Heat exchanger energy efficiency value level division table

[0105] Level 1 2 3 4 Energy efficiency value 227 200 176 168 Energy efficiency level Energy saving Energy saving Energy saving Non-energy saving Thermal energy reduction (%) 25.99

[0106] The plate heat exchanger energy efficiency value is lower than 176, which may be that the plate heat exchanger is scaled and clogged with oil dirt. The heat exchanger energy efficiency is low, and the heat exchanger is in a non-energy-saving operation state. When the heat exchanger energy efficiency value is reduced to 168, the thermal energy is reduced by 25.99%, which belongs to a non-energy-saving state. When the plate heat exchanger heat exchange capacity is reduced by 25.99%, measures should be taken to improve the heat exchange capacity.

[0107] According to the heat exchanger related standard, when the heat transfer and resistance deviate from the design value too much or cannot meet the process system requirements, an effective descaling method should be selected according to the medium characteristics and the scaling of the heat exchanger to clean and restore the process performance of the heat exchanger.

[0108] According to the energy efficiency value level division standard, the energy efficiency level is determined from the last energy-saving level to the non-energy-saving level, and the corresponding energy efficiency value reduction range is determined. The energy efficiency value reduction range is the limit value of the heat transfer coefficient reduction range, that is, 25.99%.

[0109] The heat transfer coefficient of the running heat exchanger is calculated through the heat transfer coefficient formula. The smaller the heat transfer coefficient, the more serious the clogging degree of the heat exchange surface, and the worse the heat transfer effect. The heat transfer coefficient reduction range of the heat exchanger compared with the initial operation stage is determined. If the heat transfer coefficient reduction range is less than the limit value, that is, < 25.99%, the heat exchanger continues to run. If the heat transfer coefficient reduction range is greater than or equal to the limit value, that is, ≥ 25.99%, the heat exchanger is cleaned, so as to realize the accurate cleaning node of the heat exchanger and restore the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger.

[0110] After the application of the present application in an oilfield, the heat transfer coefficient of the heat exchanger is evaluated by quickly calculating the K value, the scaling degree of the running heat exchanger is judged, when the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger is reduced by 25.99%, the heat exchanger is timely flushed to restore the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger. At present, the wide channel heat exchanger has been flushed 4 times, and the plate heat exchanger has been flushed 8 times, the heat exchange capacity is maintained, and the oilfield production is ensured.

[0111] It can be understood that the above-mentioned various method embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to form combined embodiments without deviating from the principle logic. Due to the limited space, the present application will not be described again.

[0112] The execution subject of the heat exchanger heat transfer coefficient determination method can be a heat exchanger heat transfer coefficient determination device, for example, the heat exchanger heat transfer coefficient determination method can be executed by a terminal device or a server or other processing device, wherein the terminal device can be a user equipment (User Equipment, UE), a mobile device, a user terminal, a terminal, a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a personal digital processing (Personal Digital Assistant, PDA), a handheld device, a computing device, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, etc. In some possible implementation manners, the heat exchanger heat transfer coefficient determination method can be realized by a processor calling computer readable instructions stored in a memory.
