[0002] Tantalum alloy has excellent properties such as high melting point, good ductility, high thermal conductivity, chemical stability and corrosion resistance. It is increasingly used in the fields of chemistry and chemical industry. Tantalum alloy is a rare metal with high density, good toughness and ductility, high temperature strength and good processing performance. However, the content of metallic tantalum in nature is low and the smelting cost is expensive. The direct use of tantalum alloy materials in heat exchangers is costly and wastes resources. Therefore, composite plate structure and loose lining structure are mainly used in heat exchanger design. Solving the design of tube sheet lining structure for tantalum alloy heat exchangers is a core issue in the design and manufacture of tantalum alloy equipment.

[0003] The existing tantalum alloy heat exchanger tube sheets are generally connected by welding. When leakage occurs in the weld between the tube sheet and the tantalum alloy liner, it is difficult to detect and affects the structural strength, corrosion resistance, heat transfer and other properties of the tube sheet itself. Utility Model Content

[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 4 The tube sheet lining structure for a tantalum alloy heat exchanger shown in the figure includes a base tube sheet 1, a tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6 and a tantalum alloy lining plate 2. The tantalum alloy lining plate 2 is welded to the outer side of the base tube sheet 1, i.e., the shell side, and the non-tube-laying area between the base tube sheet 1 and the tantalum alloy lining plate 2 is fixedly connected by multiple groups of tantalum nails 3. A leak detection hole 5 is provided on the radial outer side of the base tube sheet 1.

[0023] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the radial outer end of the tantalum alloy liner 2 is welded to the base tube sheet 1 by silver brazing, and a plurality of groups of mounting holes correspondingly distributed in the non-tube-laying area of ​​the base tube sheet 1 and the tantalum alloy liner 2 are provided, and the mounting holes are punched holes, and a pad groove 7 is provided at the punching hole of the base tube sheet 1, and a tantalum alloy pad 4 is provided in the pad groove 7, and a through hole for the tantalum nail 3 to pass through is provided on the tantalum alloy pad 4, and the tantalum alloy pad 4 is provided with a through hole for the tantalum nail 3 to pass through, and the tantalum nail 3 passes through the tantalum alloy liner 2 and the tantalum alloy pad 4 from the outside to the inside in turn and is fixedly connected with the mounting hole on the base tube sheet 1, and a first flange 8 is provided on the outer side of the mounting hole on the tantalum alloy liner 2, and the first flange 8 is welded to the tantalum nail 3, and the connection strength between the tantalum alloy liner 2 and the base tube sheet 1 is effectively improved by providing a plurality of groups of tantalum nails 3 and the welding relationship between the tantalum alloy liner 2 and the base tube sheet 1 and the tantalum nail 3.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the heat exchange tube is a tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6, a through hole for the tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6 to pass through is provided on the base tube sheet 1, and a fixing hole 10 for the tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6 to cooperate is provided on the tantalum alloy liner 2.

The second flange 9 is welded and fixed to the outer end of the tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6, and the length of the outer end of the tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6 extending outward from the base tube sheet 1 is the same as the length of the second flange 9. In this embodiment, the length of the second flange 9 is 5 mm to reduce the heat conduction when the tantalum alloy heat exchange tube 6 is welded to the second flange, thereby improving the welding efficiency and welding quality.

[0025] In addition, the thickness of the tantalum alloy liner 2 is 0.6 mm, so as to reduce the deformation thinning rate of the first flange 8 and the second flange 9 when punching the tantalum alloy liner 2 to less than 3%, thereby improving the punching qualification rate.

[0026] In this embodiment, two groups of leak detection holes 5 are provided. The leak detection holes 5 are provided on the radial outer side of the base tube sheet 1 and are connected to the weld between the base tube sheet 1 and the tantalum alloy liner 2 .

[0027] In order to improve the leak detection effect of the tube sheet, the number of leak detection holes 5 is limited as follows: when the outer diameter of the tube sheet is ≤600mm, two groups of leak detection holes 5 are set and are symmetrically distributed; when 600mm<the outer diameter of the tube sheet ≤2000mm, four groups of leak detection holes 5 are set, and the four groups of leak detection holes 5 are not uniform along the circumferential direction of the tube sheet; when the outer diameter of the tube sheet is greater than 2000mm, eight groups of leak detection holes 5 are set and are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the tube sheet.

[0028] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
