Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat exchangers, in particular to a medium-deep geothermal metal heat exchanger. Background Art

[0002] The medium-deep geothermal metal heat exchanger is a device used to extract medium-deep geothermal energy. It is a device that uses a drilling rig to drill a hole 2,000 to 3,000 meters underground and install a closed metal casing heat exchanger in the hole. This heat exchanger uses underground heat energy, exports underground heat energy, and supplies heat energy to ground buildings through ground heat pump units and distribution systems. This technology achieves clean, efficient and interference-free conduction of heat from the earth's core, so there is no need to burn coal, natural gas or other fossil fuels or extract groundwater during the heating process.

[0003] According to patent application number 202323096524.9, a closed medium-deep geothermal metal heat exchanger includes a base, a pipe box 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a fluid pipe 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the pipe box 7, flanges 2 are fixedly connected to both ends of the pipe box 7, a sealing gasket 3 is attached to the outside of the flange 2, a nut 4 is installed inside the flange 2, a threaded groove 11 is provided on the inner side of the flange 2, a sealing gasket 3 is attached to the bottom of the threaded groove 11, a threaded pipe 10 is inserted in the middle of the threaded groove 11, the top of the threaded pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the flange 2, the top of the flange 2 is fixedly connected to the shell 5, a baffle 8 is embedded in the shell 5, a heat transfer pipe 9 is inserted in the middle of the baffle 8, and a fluid pipe 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the shell 5. The improved closed medium-deep geothermal metal heat exchanger has a threaded groove and a threaded pipe design at the bottom of the flange, so that the two ends of the flange can be connected together by threads. The inside and outside of the flange are equipped with sealing gaskets to enhance the sealing of the heat exchanger, prevent the discharge of hot gas, and improve the performance of the heat exchanger.

[0004] However, there are still some deficiencies in the above technical solution. Firstly, in the technical solution of the above patent, only an ordinary sealing gasket is added to strengthen the sealing of the heat exchanger. However, the internal pressure of the heat exchanger is relatively high at a deep underground location. After long-term use, a certain gap will be generated between the sealing gasket and the flange, thereby causing the sealing effect of the heat exchanger to deteriorate and causing the hot air inside the heat exchanger to be discharged. Secondly, the heat exchange tube bracket inside the traditional heat exchanger generally fixes the heat exchange tube by a spiral plate. However, during the heat exchange process, the water flow inside the heat exchange tube is relatively rapid and the pressure is relatively high. Therefore, the heat exchange tube will vibrate, and friction will occur between the heat exchange tube and the spiral plate, thereby reducing the service life of the heat exchange tube. Utility Model Content

[0023] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the cross-section of the mounting groove 201 on the inner surface of the flange 2 is an L-shaped structure, which facilitates the snap-in convex ring 502 to be snapped into the inside of the mounting groove 201 when installing the seal 5. Therefore, the pressure inside the heat exchanger 1 can make the snap-in convex ring 502 closer to the flange 2 when squeezing the seal 5, thereby improving the sealing of the heat exchanger.
