Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat exchange tube groups, in particular to a straight tube tooling for heat exchange tubes of a coiled tube heat exchanger. Background Art
[0002] Heat exchanger is a device that transfers part of the heat of hot fluid to cold fluid, also known as heat exchanger. Heat exchanger plays an important role in chemical, petroleum, power, food and many other industrial production. In chemical production, heat exchanger can be used as heater, cooler, condenser, evaporator and reboiler, etc., and is widely used. Shell and tube heat exchanger (also known as shell and tube heat exchanger) is a shell and tube heat exchanger mainly composed of shell, tube bundle, tube sheet and head. The shell is mostly circular, with parallel tube bundle or spiral tube inside, and the two ends of the tube bundle are fixed on the tube sheet. In the shell and tube heat exchanger, two fluids exchange heat, one flows in the tube, and its stroke is called tube pass; the other flows outside the tube, and its stroke is called shell pass. The wall of the tube bundle is the heat transfer surface. The types of tubes are different, and the process is generally 16mm 20mm or 25mm in diameter, and the thickness of the tube wall is generally 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm and 2.5mm. Imported heat exchangers can have a minimum diameter of 8mm and a wall thickness of only 0.6mm. This greatly improves the heat exchange efficiency and has been gradually promoted in the domestic market since 2012. Shell and tube heat exchangers, with a spiral tube bundle design, can maximize the turbulence effect and increase the heat exchange efficiency. The asymmetric design of the internal shell and tube layer can reach a maximum of 4.6 times. This asymmetric design determines its wide application in the field of steam-water heat exchange. The maximum heat exchange efficiency can reach 14000w / m2.k, greatly improving production efficiency and saving costs. At the same time, since shell and tube heat exchangers are mostly metal structures, with the introduction of China's new version of GMP, heat exchangers with 316L stainless steel as the main body will become a must for the beverage, food, and pharmaceutical industries.
[0003] During the assembly process of the shell and tube heat exchanger, workers are required to assemble the internal heat exchange tubes and tube sheets. During the assembly process, the straight tubes of the tube heat exchanger need to be transported and inspected before assembly. The traditional transportation and inspection method is for workers to transport and inspect them manually, but this method consumes a lot of manpower during transportation and is accompanied by the risk of straight tubes falling, colliding and being damaged.
