DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. According to the following description, the advantages and features of the utility model will become clearer. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and are not in precise proportions, and are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the purpose of the embodiments of the utility model.

The outer cylinder and the inner cylinder are coaxially sleeved, and the upper and lower ends of the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder are integrally connected through the annular cover plate; thereby, the axial cavity of the inner cylinder forms a heat dissipation cavity for upward and downward convection of airflow, so as to reduce the surface temperature of the inner cylinder.

[0030] The heat exchange coil 3 includes: an outer heat exchange coil 31, an inner heat exchange coil 32, a support tube 33, a shunt tube 34, a converging tube 35, an inlet tube 36 and an outlet tube 37; the inner heat exchange coil 32 and the outer heat exchange coil 31 are coaxially arranged inside and outside, and a plurality of support tubes 33 are arranged circumferentially between the inner heat exchange coil 32 and the outer heat exchange coil 31, the lower end of the support tube 33 is connected to the shunt tube 34, and the upper end is respectively connected to the upper end of the inner heat exchange coil 32 and the outer heat exchange coil 31, the lower end of the inner heat exchange coil 32 and the outer heat exchange coil 31 is connected to the converging tube 35, and the inlet tube 36 and the outlet tube 37 are respectively connected to the shunt tube 34 and the converging tube 35. The low temperature characteristics of the low temperature fluid flowing in the support tube 33 are fully utilized to ensure that the support tube 33 has sufficient mechanical strength to support the two double-layer spiral coils. At the same time, due to the flow of fluid in the support tube 33, it exchanges heat with the spiral heating wire 43 and the surrounding heat exchange coil 3, and also exchanges heat with the internal fluid. It is both a support tube 33 and a heat exchange tube.

[0031] The flow divider 34 and the flow converging pipe 35 are both annular pipe structures, and the outer heat exchange coil 31 and the inner heat exchange coil 32 are both spiral coil structures. The fluid flows in the spiral coil, increasing the secondary flow and further increasing the heat transfer coefficient between the heat exchange coil 3 and the fluid.

[0032] The electric heating element 4 includes: a ceramic insulating plate 41, a ceramic fixing rod 42 and a spiral heating wire 43; the spiral heating wire 43 is embedded in the ceramic insulating plate 41, and the ceramic insulating plate 41 is fastened to the insulating and heat-insulating layer 2 through the ceramic fixing rod 42. The entire electric heating element 4 is installed on the ceramic fiber insulating and heat-insulating layer 2, which is both a heat-insulating layer and an insulating material between the electric heating element 4 and the container shell 1.

[0033] The ceramic insulating plate 41 further includes two parallel embedding cavities 411 , so that the ceramic insulating plate 41 forms an E-shaped structure.

[0034] The heater also includes a protective gas filled therein, which is used to increase the dielectric strength between the spiral heating wire 43 and the heat exchange coil 3 and prevent the spiral heating wire 43 from being oxidized.

[0035] The high-voltage distribution box 5 and lead-in wire rods 51 are also included. The high-voltage distribution box 5 is installed on the top of the heater to ensure the personal safety of the system operator.

[0036] It also includes the following working principle: the heated fluid enters the diverter pipe 34 from the inlet pipe 36 of the medium inlet, and then is sent to the top of the heat exchange coil 3 through the support pipe 33. The support pipe 33 is both a support for the inner and outer coils and a heat exchange pipe, and then enters the converging pipe 35 through the inner and outer coils, and then to the outlet pipe 37 of the medium outlet. The electric heating element 4 fixes the spiral heating wire 43 on the insulating layer 2 through the ceramic insulating plate 41 and the ceramic fixing rod 42. The insulating layer 2 is both the insulation of the equipment and the insulating layer between the spiral heating wire 43 and the container shell 1. The electric heating element 4 is energized to heat and transfer energy to the heat exchange coil 3 by radiation. The heat exchange coil 3 exchanges heat with the medium flowing inside it to meet the requirements of the medium outlet temperature.

The above coating is prepared by mixing boron nitride, zirconium oxide, etc. according to a certain proportion of formula. This high-strength coating is a material with high dielectric strength, which can fully reduce the electrical stress around the heating wire. It is also an excellent blackening material, which increases the radiation coefficient of the heating wire and the heat exchange coil 3. It is used to prevent ionization between the electrode and the ground under high temperature and high voltage; the spiral heating wire 43 adopts a heating material with ultra-high resistivity, and the long-term use temperature can reach 1600℃, which is particularly suitable for high voltage occasions.

[0039] Embodiment three:

[0040] like Figure 1-3 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 2, it also includes the following: the surface heating power of the heat exchange coil 3 decreases from top to bottom, and the heat exchange coil 3 adopts a variable power design technology, that is, a high power density is used where the fluid temperature is low, and a low power density is used where the fluid temperature is high; temperature sensors are also installed on the heat exchange coil 3 and near the spiral heating wire 43 for over-temperature protection of the heat exchange coil 3 and the spiral heating wire 43.
