Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of petroleum and chemical heat exchangers, and is a high-efficiency heat exchange tube with inner spiral wires suitable for heat exchangers. Background Art

[0002] The heat exchange tube is one of the components of the heat exchanger. It is a very important component in recovering heat in the heat transfer process and improving heat transfer efficiency.

[0003] At present, the heat exchange tubes commonly used in shell-and-tube heat exchangers are bare tubes, but bare tubes have low heat transfer efficiency and are easily blocked by scaling. Especially in the case of some media with high viscosity or containing solid particles, the service life of the heat exchange tubes is short. If the tubes are blocked, the heat exchanger needs to be disassembled and repaired regularly, and the economic cost of cleaning the tubes is very high. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a high-efficiency heat exchange tube with high heat transfer efficiency and low fouling.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a high-efficiency heat exchange tube with inner spiral lines, including a base tube, characterized in that: the outer wall of the base tube is axially provided with a plurality of grooves and protrusions, and the inner wall of the base tube is axially provided with a plurality of inner spiral lines.

[0006] The base tube diameter of the high-efficiency tube heat exchange tube with inner spiral line is 12-48 mm, the thickness of the base tube is 2-6 mm, and the base tube material is carbon steel, low alloy steel, stainless steel, or duplex steel.

[0007] The groove depth in the axial direction of the outer wall of the base tube of the high-efficiency heat exchange tube with inner spiral line is 0.8-1 mm, and the protrusion height in the axial direction of the outer wall of the base tube is 0.8-1 mm.

[0008] The inner spiral lines on the inner wall of the base tube of the high-efficiency heat exchange tube with inner spiral lines are equally distributed along the diameter of the base tube, the inner spiral lines are in an inwardly concave trapezoidal shape along the axial direction of the inner wall of the base tube, the inward concave depth of the inner spiral lines is 0.5 mm, and the inner spiral lines are forward or reverse.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: when a heat exchange medium in a high-efficiency heat exchange tube with an inner spiral line flows on the outer wall of the base tube, the heat exchange medium contacts the axial grooves and protrusions on the outer wall of the base tube, increasing the heat exchange area and improving the heat exchange efficiency; when the heat exchange medium flows on the inner wall of the base tube, the heat exchange medium passes through the inner spiral line of the inner wall of the base tube, enabling the heat exchange medium to flow in a spiral rotation, changing the flow state of the heat exchange medium, increasing the disturbance of the heat exchange medium, changing the laminar flow into turbulent flow, and improving the heat exchange efficiency; at the same time, the heat exchange medium continuously flows in a spiral rotation through the inner spiral line of the inner wall of the base tube, making it difficult for solid particles in the tube to deposit and scale, extending the service life of the heat exchange tube.
