Abstract
Description

[0002] In the field of heat exchangers, when the equipment assembly space is limited, the shell-side flow rate is small, and the heat exchange requirements are high, it is necessary to use a heat exchanger with a small size, simple structure, tight shell-side heat exchange tube structure, and no leakage in the entire shell.
[0003] For this type of heat exchanger, in order to meet the heat exchange effect, if the traditional method of increasing the heat exchange area is used, the spatial structure will be increased, resulting in an increase in the cost of the heat exchanger, an increase in operating costs, and a decrease in energy efficiency, which cannot meet the use requirements of small heat exchangers; at this stage, the conventional solution is to make the heat exchange tube bundle in close contact and reduce the outer space. During the assembly process, the heat exchange tube bundle is easily damaged, resulting in a decrease in the life of the heat exchanger; further, for small heat exchangers, although the distance between the heat exchange tube bundle and the cylinder is small, some shell-side media will still flow out from the outside of the tube bundle, causing a short circuit problem in the heat exchanger; if a draft tube is used, because the distance is too small, the draft tube and the heat exchange tube bundle are easily damaged, and there will be some flow dead zones in the shell, and the heat exchange effect cannot be guaranteed.

[0032] In order to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0033] Embodiment 1
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , is an embodiment of a coil-wound heat exchanger provided by the utility model, comprising a vertically arranged cylinder 1, both ends of the cylinder 1 are provided with a head 2, a tube sheet 3 is provided between the head 2 and the cylinder 1 to separate the two, and both ends of the heat exchange tube bundle 4 are respectively arranged on two tube sheets 3 and connected with the head 2 to form a tube pass; the area between the cylinder 1 and the heat exchange tube bundle 4 forms a shell pass, and the circumferential surface of the cylinder 1 near its two ends is provided with a shell pass interface 11 connected with the shell pass; the heat exchange tube bundle 4 includes a coil section 41, a guide tube 5 is sleeved on the outside of the coil section 41, the guide tube 5 and the coil section 41 are clearance-matched to tightly wrap the coil section 41, and the length of the guide tube 5 matches the length of the coil section 41 to ensure that the shell-side medium can fully exchange heat with the coil section 41 when flowing through the guide tube 5; both ends of the coil section 41 are connected with a straight tube section 42, and the straight tube section 42 is connected to the shell through the tube sheet 3 The head 2 is connected, the drainage hood 6 is sleeved on the outside of the heat exchange tube bundle 4 and is located at the upper end of the cylinder 1, one end of the drainage hood 6 is sealed and connected with the drainage tube 5, and the other end of the drainage hood 6 is sealed and connected with the tube sheet 3, and the drainage hood 6 realizes the fixation between the drainage tube 5 and the tube sheet 3, which can ensure the stability of the spacing between the drainage tube 5 and the cylinder 1 and the heat exchange tube bundle 4 respectively; the drainage hood 6 is provided with a conduit 61, and the conduit 61 connects the drainage hood 6 with the shell side interface 11 close to the drainage hood 6. At the same time, the inner diameter of the drainage hood 6 should not be less than the inner diameter of the drainage tube 5. When the shell side medium enters the drainage hood 6 through the shell side interface 11, the drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5 can form an annular flow channel, reduce the scouring effect of the shell side medium on the heat exchange tube bundle 4 and evenly distribute the shell side medium, can effectively guide the shell side medium to make it flow through the heat exchange tube bundle 4 to the maximum extent, and effectively reduce the heat exchange loss.
[0035] For clarification, please refer to Figure 1 The drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5 are preferably arranged with a conical connection or a tapered connection, which can ensure the connection and sealing between the drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5; at the same time, the drainage hood 6 is preferably cylindrical or truncated cone-shaped, which facilitates the sealed connection between the drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5 while ensuring that the inner diameter of the drainage hood 6 is larger than the inner diameter of the drainage tube 5.
[0036] For further information, please refer to Figure 1 The distance between the draft tube 5 and the pipe winding section 41 should be smaller than the distance between the draft tube 5 and the cylinder body 1 to ensure that the shell-side medium fully passes through the pipe winding section 41 and improve the heat exchange effect; at the same time, the outer diameter of the draft hood 6 should be smaller than the diameter of the tube sheet 3 to facilitate fixing one end of the draft hood 6 on the tube sheet 3.
[0037] Specifically, the inner diameter ratio of the drainage hood 6 to the drainage tube 5 is preferably 1.3-1:1. The gap between the straight pipe section 42 and the drainage hood 6 is relatively large. After the shell-side medium enters the drainage hood 6 and collides with the straight pipe section 42, the flow velocity is reduced. Moreover, since the inner diameter of the drainage hood 6 is larger than that of the drainage tube 5, part of the flow velocity can be compensated.
[0038] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The shell-side interface 11 connected with the conduit 61 rushes toward the straight pipe section 42, the length of the drainage hood 6 matches the length of the straight pipe section 42, one end of the drainage hood 6 is connected to one end of the drainage cylinder 5, the conduit 61 is sealed and connected to the drainage hood 6 and the shell-side interface 11 respectively, the axis of the conduit 61 is perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder 1, and the drainage hood 6 and the shell-side interface 11 can be easily connected.
[0039] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 A guide hole 62 is provided at the position of the guide cover 6 near the tube sheet 3. The shell-side medium can easily enter or flow out of the guide cover 6 through the guide hole 62, avoiding that the shell-side medium in some areas cannot participate in the main fluid flow, which can solve the problem of flow dead zone to a certain extent.
[0040] Based on the above examples, please refer to Figure 2 , the angle between the axis of the guide hole 62 and the flow direction of the shell-side medium is an acute angle. At this time, the main fluid flow direction of the shell-side medium is from bottom to top, and the shell-side medium outside the drainage cover 6 can flow in more smoothly from the outside of the drainage cover 6; in other embodiments, the axis of the guide hole 62 can also be perpendicular to the axis of the drainage tube 5, so that the shell-side medium can smoothly enter or flow out of the drainage cover 6.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 The specific usage of the utility model is as follows:
[0042] The shell side medium enters the shell side from the shell side interface 11 at the lower end, passes through the drainage tube 5, the drainage cover 6 and the conduit 61, and is discharged from the shell side interface 11 at the upper end to complete the heat exchange;
[0043] Alternatively, the shell-side medium can also be discharged from the shell-side interface 11 at the lower end through the conduit 61, the drainage cover 6, and the drainage tube 5 in the reverse direction from the upper shell-side interface 11 to complete the heat exchange.
[0044] It should be noted that when the gap between the heat exchange tube bundle 4 and the cylinder 1 is appropriate, the drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5 can also be connected by an overlap structure to ensure that the connection between the drainage hood 6 and the drainage tube 5 is sealed.
[0045] Embodiment 2
[0046] Please refer to Figure 3The main difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the shell side interface 11 connected to the conduit 61 rushes toward the winding pipe section 41. At this time, the drainage cover 6 extends to the winding pipe section 41, and part of the drainage tube 5 extends into the drainage cover 6. One end of the drainage cover 6 is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the drainage tube 5. At this time, a more obvious annular flow channel can be formed between the drainage cover 6 and the drainage tube 5, which can further reduce the scouring effect of the shell side medium on the heat exchange tube bundle 4 and make the shell side medium more evenly distributed.
[0047] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
