Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a three-dimensional temperature field verification calculation method for a concentric circular bulging plate cylindrical heat exchanger, belonging to the field of heat exchanger technology. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous expansion of heat exchanger applications, the industry has developed heat exchanger technologies specifically for non-clean working media, such as petrochemicals, textiles, industrial wastewater containing solid particles, and sewage / sludge containing biomass. A typical product is ZL 202510168793.6, "A Three-Dimensional Variable Space Expansion Heat Exchanger and an Equal Flow Path Closed Heat Exchanger," where the outside of the plates contains the non-clean working media and the inside contains the clean working media. By combining specific half-turns between the flow channels and the number of turns on the clean working media side, "equal flow paths" are achieved on both sides, thus achieving the best overall heat exchange effect.
[0003] In existing technologies, when calculating the heat transfer performance of heat exchangers with non-clean working fluids, calculations are mainly based on one-dimensional heat exchanger design theory. For example, the thermodynamic design or verification calculation of the heat exchanger is performed using the logarithmic mean temperature difference method or the number of heat transfer units method. In this case, the multi-layer, multi-flow-path structure inside the plate is usually simplified to a single average flow path. For the flow inside and outside the tube, the classical heat transfer criterion is usually used to calculate the convective heat transfer coefficient, and the fouling thermal resistance is introduced to correct the influence of surface fouling on heat transfer. Some studies have used segmented micro-elements to analyze the temperature and pressure distribution in heat exchangers. Within each micro-element, the heat exchanger is considered as a basic unit for heat exchange between two streams of hot and cold fluids, with the overall flow arranged in counter-current. However, the purpose of this type of micro-element division is to address the problem of variable properties of the fluids at the inlet and outlet due to drastic changes in physical properties (such as fluid phase change or crossing the critical region), in order to correct the temperature difference during heat exchange. For heat exchangers with non-clean working fluids, the physical properties of the fluids on both sides remain basically unchanged during the flow process, and there is no actual need to divide the heat exchanger into micro-elements due to variable physical properties.
[0004] However, the above methods have significant shortcomings in the verification calculations for concentric circular bulging plate heat exchangers with equal flow paths. When using the logarithmic mean temperature difference method or the number of heat transfer units method, the multiple flow paths are simplified into a single average flow path, making it impossible to accurately verify the temperature distribution at the outlet of each branch and to verify the distribution effect of the equal flow path design. When using the classical heat transfer criterion and fouling thermal resistance correction, the influence of the special structure of the bulging plate on heat transfer and the non-uniform deposition characteristics of fouling are ignored. Even if some studies use micro-element partitioning, the basis for micro-element partitioning is only the nodes of physical property changes along the flow direction. In essence, each flow path is still simplified to an average treatment, and each micro-element segment is still based on a one-dimensional assumption. It cannot reflect the coupled heat transfer relationship formed by the three-dimensional serpentine cross-loop flow of the clean working fluid inside the plate ("first upward, then serpentine downward, and repeating after cross-loop switching") and the spiral upward flow of the non-clean working fluid outside the plate. It also ignores the influence of the temperature gradient in the radial direction of the concentric cylindrical structure on the overall heat transfer performance. Summary of the Invention

N A concentric circle of expanding heat exchange plates, N The aforementioned expanding heat exchange plates are sequentially arranged radially from the inside to the outside.

N +1- i Calculate the flow direction of the equal flow path from the left side of the centerline of the expanded heat exchange plate of the second half of the ring, from the bottom inlet of the second half of the ring to the bottom outlet of the second half of the ring. i Circle the outlet temperature of the first fluid in each of the three-stream heat exchange micro-elements; repeat S3 until... i = N ; S4, Calculation N The first average value of the outlet temperature of the first fluid, or calculated N The second average value of the outlet temperature of the second fluid; S5. Execute steps S3-S4 until the ratio of the two first average values to the second average value is less than the preset deviation threshold, and record the calculated value of the three-dimensional temperature field.
[0006] Furthermore, before calculating the convective heat transfer coefficient of the first fluid and the convective heat transfer coefficient of the second fluid, the following steps are also included: The total heat exchange capacity of the concentric circular bulging plate heat exchanger, the first fluid outlet temperature inside the plate, and the second fluid outlet temperature outside the plate are estimated based on the preset heat exchange effectiveness as the initial values for iterative calculation.
[0007] Specifically, calculate the first i The outlet temperature of the first fluid in each of the three-stream heat exchange micro-elements is as follows: Along each i Circle the flow path direction of the second fluid and calculate the temperature field of each of the three flow heat exchange micro-elements; Along the first i Circle the flow direction of the first fluid, and calculate the sequential flow through the first... i The heat exchange zone in the first half of the circle and the first half N - i The outlet temperature of the first fluid in the second half of the heat exchange zone of +1 turn.
[0008] Specifically, along each i Determine the flow path direction of the second fluid, and calculate the temperature field of each of the three-stream heat transfer micro-elements, including: Let each i The second virtual flow circle number is s [ i ], incrementing iteration variable iter [ i ]( iter [ i ]=1,2,3,…, s [ i ]), defining the virtual process number of fluid. pass [i ]; Starting from the bottom inlet of the concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger, the second fluid flows along... iter [ i After each concentric spiral flows through one revolution, it moves up one row until the spiral flows to... s [ i Each column flows out from the top outlet of the concentric circular bulging plate heat exchanger.
[0009] Specifically, along the first i Circle the flow direction of the first fluid, and calculate the sequential flow through the first... i The heat exchange zone in the first half of the circle and the first half N - i The outlet temperature of the first fluid in the second half of the heat exchange zone of +1 revolution includes: Define the decrementing iteration variable as iter [ j ]( iter [ j ]=1,2,3,…, s [ j ]); The first fluid begins at the bottom inlet of the concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger, and flows along the... i The flow pattern moves vertically upwards from the first column to the top of the concentric circles, then flows downwards into the second column until it reaches the bottom outlet of the concentric circular bulging plate heat exchanger; then it enters the... N - i +1 ring of bulging heat exchange plate s [ j The water flows vertically upwards to the top of the heat exchanger plate, and then enters... s [ j The current flows downwards in column -1 until it reaches the first column, which then flows out from the bottom outlet of the concentric bulging plate heat exchanger.
[0010] According to the fluid virtual path number pass [ i The parity of the flow pattern determines the flow direction type for the first and second halves of the cycle: When the fluid virtual path number is odd, the first half-circle flow direction type ft for P1 The latter half of the flow direction type lt for P2 ; When the fluid virtual path number is even, the first half-circle flow direction type ft for P2 The latter half of the flow direction type lt for P1 .
[0011] Specifically, for each three-stream heat exchange micro-element, based on its column number... k Determine the inlet temperature of the fluid inside the plate: when k When =1, the inlet temperature is taken from the total inlet temperature or the outlet temperature of the previous row in this column; when k =2 or k When =3, the inlet temperature is taken from the outlet temperature of the next fluid virtual path number or the outlet temperature of the last line of this loop. when k When the value is 4, the inlet temperature is taken from the first column of the second pairing ring. k [ i The average outlet temperature of the row or the outlet temperature of the row above in this column; in, k [ i The number of rows contained in each virtual fluid path, determined by the number of virtual flow loops. s [ i Divide by the number of serpentine flows N flow Then round down to get the result.
[0012] Specifically, the overall heat transfer coefficient of the concentric circular bulging plate heat exchanger is calculated based on the convective heat transfer coefficient of the first fluid and the convective heat transfer coefficient of the second fluid.
[0013] Furthermore, while recording the calculated values of the three-dimensional temperature field, the outlet temperature distribution data of each branch of the first fluid in each layer are simultaneously output to verify the uniform distribution effect of the equal flow path design.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention include: for the first fluid in a concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger, employing a first... i Half circle and the first circle N - iThe +1 half-circle combined flow pattern involves the flow stream switching to the paired half-circle for heat exchange after completing the heat exchange in the first half-circle via the bottom pipe. The flow path is interrupted and reset during the circle switching. Additionally, the second fluid, while flowing vertically upwards from the bottom of the cylinder, also exhibits a spiral upward flow due to the rotation of the top motor. This invention addresses this by dividing each circle of expanded heat exchange plates into four columns and alternately performing heat transfer calculations in two directions: along the spiral flow path outside the plates and the serpentine cross-circle flow path inside the plates. This accurately reflects the coupled heat transfer relationship between the three-dimensional serpentine cross-circle flow inside the plates and the spiral upward flow outside the plates, thus solving the problem caused by the three-dimensional combined flow pattern. The present invention addresses the problem of temperature field calculation being impossible due to the different linear velocities of each ring in a concentric cylindrical structure, which leads to varying heat transfer coefficients and makes verification calculations extremely difficult. It constructs a three-flow heat transfer micro-element model consisting of a first fluid inside the plate, a second fluid on the inner side of the plate, and a second fluid on the outer side of the plate. The heat transfer coefficient and outlet temperature of each ring are calculated separately, characterizing the differences in heat transfer performance of each ring in the radial direction. Based on the parity of the fluid virtual path number, the flow direction type of the first and second halves of the ring is dynamically switched, accurately simulating the flow of the first fluid "first vertically upward along the first column, then horizontally downward in a serpentine pattern along the second column, crossing rings to the [missing information]." N - i The complex three-dimensional flow path, which involves "vertically moving upward along the fourth column after +1 revolution and then serpentine downward along the third column," enables precise verification of the outlet temperature of each branch. Through iterative calculations until the first average value obtained from the two previous cycles is less than the preset deviation threshold, the outlet temperature distribution data of each branch in each layer is output, providing a reliable three-dimensional temperature field verification basis for the optimized design of the concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger.

[0064] According to the law of conservation of energy, when the heat exchanger reaches a stable operating state, the heat exchange between the first fluid side inside the plate and the second fluid side outside the plate is equivalent in the sense of energy conservation; that is, the heat absorbed by the inner side of the plate is equal to the heat released by the outer side of the plate. Therefore, convergence can be determined by using either the average outlet temperature of the first fluid side inside the plate or the integral average outlet temperature of the second fluid side outside the plate. In this embodiment of the invention, the outlet temperature of the first fluid inside the plate is used as the convergence criterion; that is, when the relative deviation of the first average value obtained from two adjacent iterations is less than 0.01%, the temperature field is considered to have converged.
[0065] In this embodiment of the invention, T oip The average temperature of the fluid in each branch within the plate is calculated, and the integral average temperature of the outlet of the non-clean working fluid outside the plate is also calculated. Specifically, the average temperature of the fluid in each branch within the plate is calculated. T oip The average of the fluid temperature values stored in each branch is used to obtain a first average value; simultaneously, the outlet temperature of the non-clean working fluid outside the plate is integrated and averaged to obtain a second average value. The first average value is used for convergence judgment, and the second average value is used to output the overall performance parameters of the heat exchanger.

When the relative deviation of this round is greater than... Rel If the value is less than 1, continue to the next iteration; if the value is less than 1, continue to the next iteration. Rel When the value is reached, the iteration stops, the calculation exits, and the calculated three-dimensional temperature field value is saved.
[0068] Similarly, this embodiment of the invention uses the outlet temperature of the first fluid within the plate as a convergence criterion. The numerical variable of the outlet temperature of the clean working fluid within the plate is defined. T oipN Then the first i The outlet temperature value of each flow path T oipN [ i ]: (44) (45) in, This is an array of clean working fluid outlet temperatures obtained from the previous iteration. If... RelIf it is greater than 0.01%, continue iterative calculation; if Rel If the result is less than or equal to 0.01%, stop the iteration, save the three-dimensional temperature field data, and exit.
[0069] In this embodiment of the invention, from the innermost ring to the outermost ring, along the flow direction of the second fluid outside the plate and the flow direction of the first fluid inside the plate, each three-flow heat exchange micro-element is checked and calculated. The outlet temperature values of each flow path inside the plate obtained in each round of calculation are shown in Table 1. It can be seen that when the number of iterations is 18, the outlet temperature values of the flow paths inside the plate are [285.31, 287.10, 286.99, 287.01, 286.91, 286.85, 286.88, 286.98, 286.07], and the corresponding iteration deviation is 0.073%. The trend of the relative deviation between two adjacent iterations with the number of iterations is shown in the figure below. Figure 9 As shown.
[0070] Table 1
[0071] For the first fluid in a concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger, the first... i Half circle and the first circle N - i The +1 half-circle combined flow pattern involves the flow stream switching to the paired half-circle for heat exchange after completing the heat exchange in the first half-circle via the bottom pipe. The flow path is interrupted and reset during the circle switching. Additionally, the second fluid, while flowing vertically upwards from the bottom of the cylinder, also exhibits a spiral upward flow due to the rotation of the top motor. This invention addresses this by dividing each circle of expanded heat exchange plates into four columns and alternately performing heat transfer calculations in two directions: along the spiral flow path outside the plates and the serpentine cross-circle flow path inside the plates. This accurately reflects the coupled heat transfer relationship between the three-dimensional serpentine cross-circle flow inside the plates and the spiral upward flow outside the plates, thus solving the problem caused by the three-dimensional combined flow pattern. The present invention addresses the problem of temperature field calculation being impossible due to the different linear velocities of each ring in a concentric cylindrical structure, which leads to varying heat transfer coefficients and makes verification calculations extremely difficult. It constructs a three-flow heat transfer micro-element model consisting of a first fluid inside the plate, a second fluid on the inner side of the plate, and a second fluid on the outer side of the plate. The heat transfer coefficient and outlet temperature of each ring are calculated separately, characterizing the differences in heat transfer performance of each ring in the radial direction. Based on the parity of the fluid virtual path number, the flow direction type of the first and second halves of the ring is dynamically switched, accurately simulating the flow of the first fluid "first vertically upward along the first column, then horizontally downward in a serpentine pattern along the second column, crossing rings to the [missing information]." N - iThe complex three-dimensional flow path, which involves "vertically moving upward along the fourth column after +1 revolution and then serpentine downward along the third column," enables precise verification of the outlet temperature of each branch. Through iterative calculations until the first average value obtained from the two previous cycles is less than the preset deviation threshold, the outlet temperature distribution data of each branch in each layer is output, providing a reliable three-dimensional temperature field verification basis for the optimized design of the concentric circular expansion plate heat exchanger.
