Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of heat exchange technology, and in particular to a heat exchange plate, a heat exchange plate pair, a heat exchange plate bundle and a heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] Wide channel welded plate heat exchanger is a heat exchanger composed of a series of flat or corrugated plates welded together to form heat exchange plate pairs, which are stacked and welded in a certain order to form heat exchange plate bundles, and combined with the welding and assembly of frame components. A second medium flow channel is formed inside the heat exchange plate pairs, and a first medium flow channel is formed between the heat exchange plate pairs. The flow channels on both sides are alternately spaced to form hot and cold flow channels to achieve heat exchange between hot and cold media. Compared with gasket-type plate heat exchangers, wide channel welded plate heat exchangers have wider medium flow channels and larger welding point spacing on both sides, making them more suitable for applications in high solid content media conditions, such as in the fuel ethanol and alumina industries. In recent years, they have been gradually promoted and applied in large quantities.

[0003] For wide channel welded plate heat exchangers, the current product structures are all plate-side welding structures. For the heat exchange area, pressed circular sockets are usually used for plate-to-plate welding, or welding spacing columns are used to weld and fix the plates. Both methods cause evenly spaced welding point obstacles to exist in the second medium flow channel, and the inlet and outlet of the second medium flow channel are arranged on the diagonal side or the same long side of the heat exchange plate. For heat exchange situations where both sides of the heat exchange plate are high-solid media, especially high-solid and high-viscosity media, such as high-viscosity mash and mash heat exchange situations in the fuel ethanol industry, it will make the second medium flow channel difficult to clean, affecting the operation and maintenance of the heat exchanger and reducing the service life.

[0023] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Wide channel welded plate heat exchanger is a heat exchanger composed of a series of flat or corrugated plates welded together to form heat exchange plate pairs, which are stacked and welded in a certain order to form heat exchange plate bundles, and combined with the welding and assembly of frame components. A second medium flow channel is formed inside the heat exchange plate pairs, and a first medium flow channel is formed between the heat exchange plate pairs. The flow channels on both sides are alternately spaced to form hot and cold flow channels to achieve heat exchange between hot and cold media. Compared with gasket-type plate heat exchangers, wide channel welded plate heat exchangers have wider medium flow channels and larger welding point spacing on both sides, making them more suitable for applications in high solid content media conditions, such as in the fuel ethanol and alumina industries. In recent years, they have been gradually promoted and applied in large quantities.

[0026] For wide channel welded plate heat exchangers, the current product structures are all plate-side welding structures. For the heat exchange area, pressed circular sockets are usually used for plate-to-plate welding, or welding distance columns are used to weld and fix the plates. Both methods cause evenly spaced welding point obstacles to exist in the second medium flow channel, and the inlet and outlet of the second medium flow channel are arranged on the diagonal side of the heat exchange plate or on the same long side. For heat exchange situations where both sides of the heat exchange plate are high-solid media, especially high-solid and high-viscosity media, such as high-viscosity mash and mash heat exchange situations in the fuel ethanol industry, it will make the second medium flow channel difficult to clean, and only a very short distance between the inlet and outlet can be cleaned. The operation and maintenance of the heat exchanger are affected, the service life is reduced, and the promotion and use of the product in such working conditions is restricted. Therefore, a heat exchange plate that is easy to clean and maintain is urgently needed.

[0027] Below, through specific embodiments and in combination with the attached Figures 1 to 5 The technical solution of this application is further described in detail.

[0028] In some embodiments of the present application, a heat exchange plate is provided, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes: a plate body 1, the short side of the plate body 1 is provided with a first strip-shaped protrusion 2 along the width direction, the long side of the plate body 1 is provided with a second strip-shaped protrusion 3 along the length direction, the first strip-shaped protrusion 2 and the second strip-shaped protrusion 3 are used for welding connection between heat exchange plates; a notch 4 is provided on the second strip-shaped protrusion 3, the notch 4 includes a cleaning port 4-1 and a second medium flow channel port 4-2 arranged at intervals, and the second medium flow channel port 4-2 is located at the end of the second strip-shaped protrusion 3; the edge of the second strip-shaped protrusion 3 is provided with a folded edge 3-1, and the folded edge 3-1 is used for welding connection between heat exchange plate pairs.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the L direction is the length direction of the plate body 1, and the W direction is the width direction of the plate body 1. The plate body 1 is rectangular in shape, and the material is, for example, stainless steel, which is not specifically limited, and is used for fluid heat exchange.

[0030] The short side of the plate body 1 is provided with a first strip-shaped protrusion 2 along the W direction, and the first strip-shaped protrusion 2 is a port of the first medium flow channel. The combination of the first strip-shaped protrusions 2 of the two heat exchange plates between adjacent heat exchange plate pairs can form a complete inlet and outlet of the first medium flow channel. The first medium is, for example, a fluid containing solid particles and fibrous impurities such as an alumina solution, and is not specifically limited.

[0031] The long side of the plate body 1 is provided with a second strip-shaped protrusion 3 along the L direction, and the end of the second strip-shaped protrusion 3 is provided with a second medium flow channel port 4-2. The second medium flow channel ports 4-2 of the two heat exchange plates can be combined to form a complete inlet and outlet of the second medium flow channel; the number of second medium flow channel ports 4-2 on one heat exchange plate is two, which are distributed along the diagonal of the first plate body 1 or are arranged on the same long side. The second medium is, for example, a fluid containing solid particles and fibrous impurities such as an aluminum oxide solution, and is not specifically limited.

[0032] The first strip-shaped protrusion 2 and the second strip-shaped protrusion 3 are used for welding connection between the heat exchange plates; Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the edge of the second strip-shaped protrusion 3 is provided with a folded edge 3-1, and the folded edge 3-1 is used for welding connection between the heat exchange plate pairs.

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, a cleaning port 4-1 is also provided on the second strip-shaped protrusion 3, and the cleaning port 4-1 is spaced apart from the second medium flow channel port 4-2. The cleaning port 4-1 is used to clean the area outside the second medium flow channel port 4-2, thereby achieving overall cleaning of the second medium flow channel, ensuring efficient operation of the equipment, and preventing excessive resistance caused by blockage and local blockage, resulting in waste of operating energy, solving the problem of mechanical cleaning of wide channel welded plate heat exchangers in high solid content and high viscosity media applications, and improving the service life of the product.

[0034] The heat exchange plate has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, is easy to clean, has a long service life, and has a wide range of applications.

[0035] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, two to six cleaning ports 4 - 1 are disposed on each of the two long sides of the plate body 1 , and the cleaning ports 4 - 1 located on the same long side of the plate body 1 are spaced apart from each other.

[0036] By arranging the cleaning ports 4 - 1 on both sides of the plate body 1 , impurities in the plate body 1 flushed from the cleaning port 4 - 1 on one side can flow out from the cleaning port 4 - 1 on the opposite side, ensuring flushing and cleaning of a large area of ​​the plate body 1 .

[0037] The number of cleaning ports 4-1 on one side is 2 to 6, for example 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, without specific limitation, to avoid too many cleaning ports 4-1, which will increase the cost and reduce the strength of the plate body 1, and to avoid too few cleaning ports 4-1, which will cause cleaning inconvenience and fail to effectively clean the entire plate body 1.

[0038] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, on the same long side of the plate body 1, the spacing between the cleaning port 4-1 and the second medium flow channel port 4-2 is a first spacing, the spacing between two adjacent cleaning ports 4-1 is a second spacing, and the first spacing is equal to the second spacing.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, D1 is the first spacing, D2 is the second spacing, and D1=D2 is set to ensure the structural stability and cleaning effect of the heat exchange plate.

[0040] In some embodiments, the height of the cleaning port 4 - 1 is equal to the height of the second medium flow channel port 4 - 2 , and the length of the cleaning port 4 - 1 is equal to 0.5 to 2 times the length of the second medium flow channel port 4 - 2 .

[0041] The height of the cleaning port 4-1 is equal to the height of the second medium flow channel port 4-2 to avoid blocking the cleaning and ensure the cleaning effect; the length of the cleaning port 4-1 is equal to 0.5-2 times the length of the second medium flow channel port 4-2, for example, 0.5, 1, 1.5 or 2 times, without specific limitation, to avoid the cleaning port 4-1 being too short, resulting in poor cleaning effect, and to avoid the cleaning port 4-1 being too long, reducing the strength of the plate body 1.

[0042] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the orthographic projection of the notch 4 on one long side of the plate body 1 on the other long side of the plate body 1 partially overlaps with the notch 4 on the other long side.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, α is the radiation angle of flushing and cleaning through the cleaning port 4-1. The smaller the radiation angle, the longer the flushing distance, the more unfavorable it is for cleaning. The radiation angle can be set to be greater than or equal to 45° to ensure the cleaning effect; the notch 4 includes a cleaning port 4-1 and a second medium flow channel port 4-2. By setting the notches 4 on both sides of the plate body 1 to partially overlap each other, it can ensure that the radiation angle is larger, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present application, a heat exchange plate pair is provided, comprising two heat exchange plates as described in any of the above embodiments arranged opposite to each other, the first strip-shaped protrusions 2 of the two heat exchange plates are welded and connected, and the second strip-shaped protrusions 3 of the two heat exchange plates are welded and connected, so that a second medium flow channel is formed between the two heat exchange plates.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present application, a heat exchange plate bundle 5 is provided, comprising a plurality of stacked heat exchange plate pairs as described in any of the above embodiments, wherein the folded edges 3-1 of two adjacent heat exchange plate pairs are welded and connected to form a first medium flow channel between the two adjacent heat exchange plate pairs.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present application, a heat exchanger is provided, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it includes a frame 6, in which a heat exchange plate bundle 5 as described in any of the above embodiments is arranged.

[0047] The heat exchanger has a simple structure, is easy to clean, has a good heat exchange effect and a long service life.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a cleaning pipe box 7 and a guide pipe box 8 are provided in the frame 6. The guide pipe box 8 is provided corresponding to the first strip protrusion 2 and the second medium flow channel port 4-2, and the cleaning pipe box 7 is provided corresponding to the cleaning port 4-1.

[0049] The guide pipe box 8 is arranged in the frame 6 and can be welded to the heat exchange plate bundle 5. The shape is, for example, semi-cylindrical or rectangular. The guide pipe box 8 is connected to the flow channel port of the heat exchange plate bundle 5 to provide space for fluid flow distribution.

[0050] The cleaning pipe box 7 is arranged in the frame 6, corresponding to the cleaning port 4-1. Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning pipe box 7 includes a square flange 7-1, and the square flange 7-1 is connected to a detachable blind plate 7-2, so that the heat exchanger can be cleaned after the blind plate 7-2 is removed, and the heat exchanger can work normally after the blind plate 7-2 is installed. A baffle and a sealing strip can be set between the blind plate 7-2 and the heat exchange plate bundle 5 to prevent leakage.

[0051] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely illustrative and is not intended to imply that the scope of the present disclosure (including the claims) is limited to these examples. In line with the concept of the present application, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments may be combined, the steps may be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of the present application as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of simplicity.
