[0034] The preheating assembly includes a preheating chamber 10, which is mounted on the top of the shell 1, and has a liquid inlet 11 on the top. A sealing plug 12 is mounted on the liquid inlet 11, and first power supply seats 13 are arranged on both sides of the liquid inlet 11. The first power supply seat 13 is mounted on the preheating chamber 10, and the first power supply seat 13 is electrically connected to a plurality of electric heating rods 24, which penetrate the top of the preheating chamber 10 and extend into the preheating chamber 10.

[0038] Among them, the partition 7 is in an inverted V shape, and the partition 7 is equidistantly linearly distributed along the height direction of the condensation chamber 3. When the preheated solution enters each evaporation chamber 8 through the liquid guide tube 14, it will contact the corresponding partition 7.

The condensed water flows to both sides along the bottom surface of the partition 7 and then falls on the guide plate 21. The fallen condensed water can be introduced into the condensation bin 3 along the condensation port 5 through the guide plate 21 to realize the centralized recovery of the condensed water.

[0042] The circuits, electronic components and chip modules involved in the utility model are all existing technologies and can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art. Needless to say, the content protected by the utility model does not involve improvements to software and methods.

[0043] The standard parts used in the application documents can all be purchased from the market. All the components in this application document can be customized according to the description in the specification and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt mature conventional means such as bolts, rivets, welding, etc. in the prior art.

[0044] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0045] When the utility model is in use, firstly, the electrical components in the multiple-effect evaporator are connected to the external control switch and the power supply through the wires, and then after the solution to be concentrated is introduced into the preheating bin 10 through the liquid inlet 11, the sealing plug 12 is inserted into the liquid inlet 11, and then the first power supply seat 13 is used to supply power to each heating rod 24, and the heating rod 24 can generate heat after being energized. At this time, the heat generated by the heating rod 24 can be used to preheat the solution in the preheating bin 10, so as to reduce the energy consumption required for subsequent heating. After the preheating is completed, the preheated solution can be respectively introduced into each evaporation chamber 8 through each liquid guide tube 14, and then the second power supply seat 15 can be used to supply power to each heating wire 16, and the heating wire 16 can generate heat after being energized. At this time, the heat generated by the heating wire 16 can be transferred to each evaporation chamber 8 through the heat conduction plate 6 and the partition plate 7, so as to perform multiple-effect evaporation on the solution in each evaporation chamber 8, until the concentrated solution of the desired concentration is obtained, the valve on the liquid outlet pipe 9 can be opened to discharge the solution in each evaporation chamber 8, and then the solution is evaporated. When the evaporation is started, the solution in each evaporation chamber 8 will generate hot steam after being heated and evaporated. After the hot steam rises and contacts the bottom of the partition 7, it will gradually condense and form condensed water. The condensed water flows along the bottom surface of the partition 7 to both sides and then falls on the guide plate 21. The fallen condensed water can be introduced into the condensation bin 3 along the condensation port 5 through the guide plate 21 to realize the centralized recovery of the condensed water. After that, the valve on the drain port 4 can be opened to guide the condensed water in the condensation bin 3 for subsequent reuse. The waste heat generated in the multi-effect evaporation process can be centralized recovered through the heat collecting cover 17, and re-introduced into the shell 1 through each heat recovery pipe 19 to realize the reuse of the waste heat, thereby effectively reducing heat loss, not only improving the evaporation efficiency of the entire multi-effect evaporator, but also reducing energy consumption, which is beneficial to energy saving and environmental protection. The entire multi-effect evaporator adopts an integrated design with a compact structure. All components are integrated and installed in the shell 1, which not only effectively reduces the initial investment cost of the equipment, but also greatly reduces the floor space, so that it can be suitable for places with limited space.
