Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of falling film evaporation concentration, in particular to a novel high-efficiency anti-blocking high-efficiency falling film evaporator. Background Art
[0002] At present, the evaporator heat exchange tubes for falling film evaporation and concentration of evaporation and concentration materials at home and abroad all use smooth heat exchange tubes. The evaporation and concentration materials go through the tube side and evaporate along the falling film inside the tube under the action of their own gravity; the steam goes through the shell side to heat the materials and evaporate the moisture in the materials to achieve the purpose of material concentration and purification. This design has the following defects:
[0003] 1. The heat transfer coefficient of traditional smooth heat exchange tubes is low. In order to ensure the evaporation efficiency of materials, the evaporator is designed with a large area and high investment;
[0004] 2. During the evaporation of liquid materials, the evaporator is prone to scaling, salt accumulation and scarring due to overheating and other reasons, which makes the heat exchange deteriorate sharply and leads to a serious reduction in heat exchange efficiency; due to scaling on the wall of the heat exchange tube, it needs to be cleaned regularly, and redundant standby equipment needs to be set up in most occasions. The device needs to be stopped repeatedly, and the continuous operation rate is low
[0005] 3. In order to improve heat exchange efficiency, save heating steam consumption, and make full use of secondary steam, multi-stage evaporators are generally connected in series, but the equipment investment cost and operating cost are high.
[0006] Therefore, how to provide a new type of high-efficiency falling film evaporator with high efficiency and anti-blocking has become a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is how to provide a novel high-efficiency anti-blocking high-efficiency falling film evaporator.
[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a novel high-efficiency anti-blocking high-efficiency falling film evaporator, comprising: an evaporator shell and a heat exchange mechanism, the evaporator shell is provided with a material channel and a steam channel, the heat exchange mechanism is a heat exchange tube, the heat exchange tube is arranged inside the evaporator shell, and the heat exchange tube has a preset helical angle.
[0009] The evaporator shell adopts the existing structure on the market in this field, so it will not be repeated here. The material channel forms the tube side for the circulation of materials, and the steam channel forms the shell side for the circulation of steam. The heat exchange tube is a high-efficiency heat exchange tube. The spiral angle structure on its surface makes the flow direction of the liquid film change repeatedly, resulting in sufficient heat exchange between the liquid film. At the same time, the thickness of the liquid film is more uniform, and the spiral shearing effect can reduce the viscosity of the material, causing turbulent flow of the liquid film at low flow rate, effectively preventing the formation of scars in the tube, and the spiral angle on the surface of the pipe can increase the flow distance of the slurry. When the flow rate remains unchanged, the flow heat exchange time is increased, making the evaporation concentration efficiency higher.
[0010] Preferably, a partition plate is installed on the evaporator shell, and more than one partition plate is arranged at equal intervals.
[0011] The partition plate can increase the contact area between the fluid and the heat exchange surface. During the heat exchange process, the larger the contact area between the fluid and the heat exchange surface, the higher the heat exchange efficiency. The partition plate can greatly increase the contact area of the fluid on the heat exchange surface by dividing the fluid into multiple small flow channels, which can improve the heat exchange efficiency and enable the heat exchanger to function better. At the same time, the partition plate can also improve the flow state of the fluid. During the heat exchange process, the flow state of the fluid has an important influence on the heat exchange effect.
[0012] Preferably, the material channel includes a material feeding section and a material discharging section.
[0013] The material feed section and the material discharge section are connected to the evaporator shell through the tube plate, which ensures the stability of the connection. This method is common knowledge in the field and will not be described in detail.
[0014] Preferably, the material feeding section is arranged at the top of the evaporator shell, and a material feeding port is installed at the top of the material feeding section.
[0015] The material enters the material feeding section through the material feeding port.
[0016] Preferably, the material discharge section is arranged at the bottom of the evaporator shell, a material discharge port is installed at the top of the material discharge section, and an evaporating liquid outlet is installed at one side of the material discharge section.
[0017] The concentrated material is discharged from the material outlet, and the evaporating liquid enters the external gas-liquid separator from the evaporating liquid outlet, and the steam is separated by the gas-liquid separator.
[0018] Preferably, the steam channel comprises a steam inlet, a steam outlet and a drain outlet.
[0019] The steam inlet, steam outlet and sewage outlet are fixedly installed on the evaporator shell, ensuring the stability of its fixed connection.
[0020] Preferably, the steam inlet is installed on one side of the outer surface of the evaporator shell.
[0021] Steam enters the evaporator shell from the steam inlet and is used to heat the material in the heat exchange tubes.
[0022] Preferably, the steam outlet is installed on one side of the outer surface of the evaporator shell.
[0023] After the steam heat exchange, the steam-water mixture is discharged from the steam outlet.
[0024] Preferably, the drain outlet is installed on the other side of the outer surface of the evaporator shell.
[0025] The drain port is used to discharge waste materials in the evaporator shell.
[0026] Preferably, a flow distribution structure is installed at one end of the heat exchange tube close to the material feeding section.
[0027] The design of the uniform flow distribution structure allows the material to be evenly distributed on the inner wall of the heat exchange tube, so that the material flows and evaporates along the inner wall of the heat exchange tube under the action of its own gravity.
[0028] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0029] 1. When the utility model is in use, the heat exchange tube is a high-efficiency heat exchange tube. The spiral angle structure on its surface makes the flow direction of the liquid film change repeatedly, resulting in sufficient heat exchange inside the liquid film. At the same time, the thickness of the liquid film is more uniform, and the spiral shearing effect can reduce the viscosity of the material, so that the liquid film turbulent flow occurs at a low flow rate, which effectively prevents the formation of scars in the tube. In addition, the spiral angle on the surface of the pipe can increase the flow distance of the slurry. When the flow rate remains unchanged, the flow heat exchange time is increased, making the evaporation concentration efficiency higher.
[0030] 2. When the utility model is in use, the heat exchange tubes inside the evaporator shell strengthen the evaporation and heat exchange of the material inside the tubes, and at the same time strengthen the condensation of the steam outside the tubes, which is conducive to popularization and use.
