Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to heat exchangers, and in particular to an annular shell and tube heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] A heat exchanger is a device that transfers part of the heat of a hot fluid to a cold fluid. It is also called a heat exchanger. Heat exchangers play an important role in chemical, petroleum, power, food and many other industrial productions. In chemical production, heat exchangers are widely used as heaters, coolers, condensers, evaporators and reboilers. Shell and tube heat exchangers are a type of heat exchanger. Shell and tube heat exchangers are also called shell and tube heat exchangers. They use the wall of the tube bundle enclosed in the shell as the heat transfer surface. This type of heat exchanger has a simple structure, low cost, a wide flow cross-section, and is easy to clean scale.

[0003] The annular shell and tube heat exchanger is a common heat exchange equipment, mainly composed of an annular tube bundle and a shell. The inside of the annular tube bundle is usually a fluid, which can be a heat transfer medium, such as water or steam. The shell is the part that wraps the annular tube bundle on the outside, and heat is exchanged between the fluid outside the shell and the fluid inside the tube bundle. This design can effectively improve the heat exchange efficiency and is widely used in industrial production and HVAC systems.

[0004] When the existing annular shell and tube heat exchanger is in use, the heat exchange fluid mostly enters the heat exchanger directly from the heat exchange fluid inlet, and the liquid directly entering the heat exchanger will impact the tube bundle. The tube bundle that is impacted by the fluid for a long time will accelerate wear and aging, resulting in a shortened life of the heat exchanger. To solve the above problems, the present application proposes an annular shell and tube heat exchanger. Utility Model Content
