AI Technical Summary
Existing evaporators need to consume more heat when heating large batches of solvents, and the heating speed is slow, which can easily lead to solvent cleavage.
A falling film evaporator is designed. By setting up several vertical pipes in the tank body and heating them with thermal oil, the solvent flows along the inside of the pipe in a film-like manner, evaporates quickly and flows out of the outlet to avoid cracking caused by long-term heat.
This design effectively improves the heating efficiency of the solvent, reduces heat loss, avoids solvent cracking, and increases the steam generation speed.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vapor phase drying systems, in particular to a falling film evaporator. Background Art
[0002] In the vapor phase drying system of transformer drying, the evaporator is the core component. Its quality and efficiency will directly affect the transformer drying effect and energy consumption. The existing evaporators on the market are mainly composed of two parts: a heating chamber and an evaporation chamber. The solvent is heated in the heating chamber to generate solvent vapor in the evaporation chamber. Although this method of heating to obtain solvent vapor is simple and the equipment structure is not complicated, it consumes a lot of heat to heat a large amount of solvent to steam. If the solvent absorbs too much heat, it will also cause solvent cracking, and the speed of generating steam is slow. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a falling film evaporator, which solves the problem that the prior evaporator requires a large amount of heat energy to generate solvent vapor and the speed is slow.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the utility model is implemented through the following technical scheme. The utility model provides a falling film evaporator, including a tank body, wherein the upper and lower ends of the tank body are respectively connected to a top distributor and a liquid collecting chamber, and the upper and lower ends of the interior of the tank body are respectively fixedly installed with supporting plates, and a pair of vertical pipes are fixedly installed between the supporting plates, and the upper and lower ends of the vertical pipes are respectively connected to the top distributor and the liquid collecting chamber, and a pair of solvent input ports are provided at the upper end of the top distributor, and a liquid return port and a solvent vapor outlet are respectively provided on the lower end and side wall of the liquid collecting chamber.
[0005] Preferably, a heat transfer oil outlet and a heat transfer oil inlet are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the side wall of the tank body.
[0006] Preferably, an expansion joint is provided on the tank body.
[0007] Beneficial Effects
[0008] The utility model provides a falling film evaporator, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0009] 1. Several vertical pipes are vertically arranged in the tank body. The inside of the tank body is heated by heat transfer oil. The solvent flows into the top distributor from the solvent inlet, and then flows into the vertical pipe. The solvent flows downward along the inside of the vertical pipe in a film-like shape. During the flow, the solvent will be heated and evaporated, and finally flow out from the solvent vapor outlet. This structure can effectively increase the surface area of the solvent, which is conducive to rapid heating and reduces heat loss.
[0010] 2. Since the solvent flows vertically in the vertical pipe, the solvent liquid stays on the pipe wall for a short time and will not cause solvent cracking due to overheating. Since the solvent liquid is distributed in a film-like manner inside the pipe and flows quickly, the heat transfer coefficient is also large. Since the solvent liquid is driven by gravity and airflow, it does not require greater power or temperature to drive it. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
