DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to better understand the present invention, the content of the present invention is further clearly described below in conjunction with the embodiments and drawings, but the protection content of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the following description, a large number of specific details are given in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be implemented without one or more of these details.

[0035] Example 1: See Figure 1-Figure 5 , the purpose of this embodiment is to provide a gas-liquid heat exchange tank for waste heat recovery.

[0036] The gas-liquid heat exchanger includes a vertically arranged and sealed circular tank body 1 and a heat exchange core 2 arranged inside the tank body 1. The tank body 1 is supported and fixed by a plurality of legs 11 arranged at the bottom; the bottom of the tank body 1 is provided with two liquid phase pipe openings, one inlet and one outlet, respectively, a first liquid phase pipe opening 131 and a second liquid phase pipe opening 132; the side of the tank body 1 is provided with two gas phase pipe openings, one inlet and one outlet, respectively, a first gas phase pipe opening 121 located at the upper part and a second gas phase pipe opening 122 located at the lower part. In order to reduce heat loss, a heat insulation layer or heat insulation coating is provided on the inner wall of the tank body 1.

[0037] The heat exchange core 2 includes a column 21, a gas phase partition, a liquid phase partition, a gas phase guide plate 24 and a liquid phase guide tube 25. The column 21 is cylindrical and is coaxially arranged with the tank body 1, with the upper end abutting against the top of the tank body 1 and the lower end abutting against the bottom of the tank body 1. The gas phase partitions are all circular plate-shaped, coaxially arranged with the tank body 1, and fixedly arranged on the column 21 at equal intervals, and the outer diameter is consistent with the inner diameter of the tank body 1, so that the peripheral side of the gas phase partition can be sealed and connected with the inner wall of the tank body 1. The gas phase partition includes a top gas phase partition 221, a bottom gas phase partition 222, and a plurality of middle gas phase partitions 223 located between the top gas phase partition 221 and the bottom gas phase partition 222.

[0038] The gas phase partition is evenly divided into six 60° sector-shaped liquid phase partitions, and the liquid phase partitions on different gas phase partitions are aligned along the axial direction of the gas phase partition; each liquid phase partition is provided with a plurality of vias, and the number of vias between different liquid phase partitions is the same, and the vias on different gas phase partitions are all aligned along the axial direction.

[0039] The liquid phase flow guide tube 25 is arranged in a direction parallel to the axis of the tank body 1, and passes through all the gas phase partitions along the corresponding through holes, and a liquid phase flow guide tube 25 is arranged in each through hole; the top end of the liquid phase flow guide tube 25 is flush with the top surface of the top gas phase partition 221, and the bottom end is flush with the bottom surface of the bottom gas phase partition 222; the outer diameter of the liquid phase flow guide tube 25 is consistent with the inner diameter of the through hole, so that the liquid phase flow guide tube 25 and the through hole can be sealed and connected.

[0040] The gas phase guide plate 24 is in the shape of a square plate, vertically arranged, and extends along the radial direction of the tank body 1, penetrating and connecting all the gas phase partitions along the common edge of two adjacent liquid phase partitions; the top side of the gas phase guide plate 24 is fixedly connected to the top gas phase partition 221, the bottom side is fixedly connected to the bottom gas phase partition 222, the inner side is fixedly connected to the column 21, and the outer side is sealed to the inner wall of the tank body 1.

[0041] A certain middle gas phase partition 223 is located in the hollowed-out liquid phase partition on one side of the gas phase guide plate 24, and the middle gas phase partition 223 adjacent to the middle gas phase partition 223 is located in the hollowed-out liquid phase partition on the other side of the gas phase guide plate 24. The first gas phase pipe port 121 is located between the top gas phase partition 221 and the middle gas phase partition 223 adjacent to the lower side thereof, the second gas phase pipe port 122 is located between the bottom gas phase partition 222 and the middle gas phase partition 223 adjacent to the upper side thereof, and both the first gas phase pipe port 121 and the second gas phase pipe port 122 are located at the non-hollowed-out liquid phase partition of the middle gas phase partition 223 adjacent thereto, and the non-hollowed-out liquid phase partition is adjacent to the gas phase guide plate 24.

[0042] like Figure 3-Figure 5 In the figure, G1 is the corresponding position of the first gas phase pipe port 121, and G2 is the corresponding position of the second gas phase pipe port 122. After the gas to be heat exchanged is input into the tank body 1 from a gas phase pipe port, the gas first rotates clockwise or counterclockwise for nearly one circle, and then flows from the hollow liquid phase partition of the current middle gas phase partition 223 to the adjacent middle gas phase partition 223, and then rotates in the opposite direction for nearly one circle, and then flows again from the hollow liquid phase partition of the middle gas phase partition 223 to the adjacent middle gas phase partition 223. After the gas flows through all the middle gas phase partitions 223, it is output from another gas phase pipe port. When the gas flows in the tank body 1, on the one hand, it is blocked by the gas phase guide plate 24 and guided by the hollow liquid phase partition, and the gas constantly changes direction, so that the gas forms turbulence, and the degree of gas turbulence is enhanced, thereby having a higher heat exchange efficiency; on the other hand, the gas can flow through almost all sections of the liquid phase guide tube 25 during the propagation process, thereby having a higher heat exchange efficiency.

[0043] The liquid phase partitions include three top liquid phase partitions 231, three bottom liquid phase partitions 232 and one middle liquid phase partition 233. The top liquid phase partitions 231 are distributed along the radial direction of the top gas phase partition 221, the angle between adjacent top liquid phase partitions 231 is 120°, and two adjacent top liquid phase partitions 231 completely cover two adjacent liquid phase partitions of the top gas phase partition 221; the bottom edges of the top liquid phase partitions 231 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the top gas phase partition 221, the inner sides are fixedly connected to the columns 21, and the remaining sides are sealed and connected to the inside of the tank body 1. The bottom liquid phase partitions 232 are distributed along the radial direction of the bottom gas phase partition 222, the angle between adjacent bottom liquid phase partitions 232 is 120°, and two adjacent bottom liquid phase partitions 232 completely cover two adjacent liquid phase partitions of the bottom liquid phase partition 232; the top edges of the bottom liquid phase partitions 232 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the bottom gas phase partition 222, the inner sides are fixedly connected to the columns 21, and the remaining sides are sealed and connected to the inside of the tank body 1. The top liquid phase partitions 231 and the bottom liquid phase partitions 232 are staggered at 60°.

[0044] The middle liquid phase partition plate 233 is arranged between two bottom liquid phase partition plates 232, and has the same angle with the bottom liquid phase partition plates 232 on both sides; the top edge of the middle liquid phase partition plate 233 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the bottom gas phase partition plate 222, the inner side edge is fixedly connected to the column 21, and the other side edges are sealedly connected to the inside of the tank body 1. The positions between the middle liquid phase partition plate 233 and the bottom liquid phase partition plates 232 on both sides correspond to the first liquid phase pipe port 131 and the second liquid phase pipe port 132, respectively.

[0045] like Figure 4-Figure 5 In the figure, L1 is the corresponding position of the first liquid phase pipe port 131, and L2 is the corresponding position of the second liquid phase pipe port 132. When the liquid to be heat exchanged is input into the tank body 1 from a certain liquid phase pipe port, the liquid first flows from bottom to top along the connected liquid phase guide pipe 25 to between the two top liquid phase partitions 231, and then the liquid returns from the liquid phase guide pipe 25 in the liquid phase partition adjacent to the top gas phase partition 221 and flows downward, and is output from another liquid phase pipe port after multiple up and down flows. During the flow process, the liquid performs uniform heat exchange with the gas flowing inside the tank body 1, thereby absorbing the heat in the gas.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
