Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of natural gas heating equipment, in particular to a natural gas heating device. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of national industry, natural gas has become a popular energy source in many fields. Natural gas refers to a mixture of hydrocarbons and non-hydrocarbon gases naturally stored in the strata. In petroleum geology, it usually refers to oilfield gas and gasfield gas. It mainly exists in oil fields and natural gas fields, and a small amount is also found in coal seams. The main use of natural gas is as fuel, which can be used to make carbon black, chemicals and liquefied petroleum gas. Propane and butane produced from natural gas are important raw materials for modern industry.

[0003] Under certain conditions, natural gas needs to be processed using a heating device. For example, after liquid natural gas is converted into gaseous natural gas, the temperature is still a little low and needs to be heated up so that it can be transported to the client for use. When heating natural gas, if the temperature is too high, natural gas is prone to explosion and safety accidents. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the temperature in the heating device and cool it down in time when the temperature is too high. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to design a natural gas heating device so as to achieve safe heating and prevent accidents caused by over-high temperature.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A natural gas heating device comprises a device body, wherein two ends of the device body are respectively provided with a natural gas inlet and a natural gas outlet, two partitions are provided in the device body, a plurality of heat exchange tubes are connected between the two partitions, a heat exchange zone is formed between the two partitions in the device body, a heat medium inlet, a heat medium outlet, a cold air pipe and a temperature sensing probe are provided in the heat exchange zone, the temperature sensing probe is electrically connected to a regulator, and the regulator is installed on the outside of the device body.

[0007] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned natural gas heating device, the heat medium inlet and the heat medium outlet are arranged so that the flow direction of the heat medium is opposite to the flow direction of the natural gas.

[0008] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned natural gas heating device, the heat exchange tube is a bent tube.

[0009] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned natural gas heating device, the heat exchange tube is a spirally bent tube.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned natural gas heating device, the cold air ducts are respectively provided on both sides of the interior of the device body.

[0012] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned natural gas heating device, an air compressor is provided at the heat medium inlet, and the air compressor is electrically connected to the regulator.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: the utility model provides a natural gas heating device, in which natural gas can enter the device body from the natural gas inlet, and leave the device body from the natural gas outlet after passing through the heat exchange tube. When passing through the heat exchange tube, the natural gas exchanges heat with the heat medium in the heat exchange area, so that the temperature of the natural gas increases. When the temperature sensing probe detects that the temperature inside the device body is too high, cold air can be introduced into the cold air pipe through an external cold air blower to cool the device body in time. The natural gas heating device can monitor the temperature inside the device body and cool it down in time when the temperature is too high, thereby achieving safe heating and preventing accidents caused by excessive temperature.

[0018] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0019] Example: Please refer to Figure 1A natural gas heating device includes a device body 1, a natural gas inlet 11 is provided at the left end of the device body 1, a natural gas outlet 12 is provided at the right end, two partitions 15 are provided in the device body 1, and the partitions 15 are fixedly connected to the device body 1. A plurality of heat exchange tubes 4 are fixedly connected between the two partitions 15, and natural gas can enter the device body 1 from the natural gas inlet 11, and leave the device body 1 from the natural gas outlet 12 after passing through the heat exchange tubes 4. The heat exchange tubes 4 are preferably bent tubes, which can increase the length of the heat exchange tubes 4 in the device body 1, thereby increasing the heat exchange area, extending the heat exchange time, and improving the heating effect. In this embodiment, the heat exchange tubes 4 are spiral bent tubes.

[0020] A heat exchange area is formed between two partitions 15 in the device body 1 , and a heat medium inlet 13 , a heat medium outlet 14 , a cold air pipe 3 and a temperature sensing probe 21 are arranged in the heat exchange area.

For example, in the present embodiment, the heat medium inlet 13 is provided at the lower end of the device body 1, and the heat medium outlet 14 is provided at the upper end of the device body 1, and the heat medium inlet 13 is located on the right side of the heat medium outlet 14. The flow direction of the heat medium is from the lower right to the upper left, which is opposite to the flow direction of the natural gas from left to right, and thus the heat exchange effect can be improved.

[0022] In this embodiment, the cold air duct 3 is arranged on both sides of the inside of the device body 1. The cold air duct 3 is curved to improve the heat exchange effect. The upper and lower ends of the device body 1 are respectively provided with a cold air outlet 31 and a cold air inlet 32.

The air compressor can increase the flow rate and outflow speed of the heat medium in the heat exchange area and improve the heating efficiency of the natural gas. The air compressor is electrically connected to the regulator 2, and the air compressor can be controlled by the regulator 2.

[0024] Working principle of this embodiment: This embodiment provides a natural gas heating device, in which natural gas can enter the device body 1 from the natural gas inlet 11, and leave the device body 1 from the natural gas outlet 12 after passing through the heat exchange tube 4. When passing through the heat exchange tube 4, the natural gas exchanges heat with the heat medium in the heat exchange area, so that the temperature of the natural gas increases. When the temperature sensing probe 21 detects that the temperature in the device body 1 is too high, cold air can be introduced into the cold air pipe 3 through an external cold air blower to timely cool down the device body 1. The natural gas heating device can monitor the temperature in the device body 1 and cool down in time when the temperature is too high, thereby achieving safe heating and preventing accidents caused by excessive temperature.
