[0028] 4. Commutation end Specific embodiments

[0029] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is a single cracking furnace heat exchanger structure disclosed in the embodiments of the present application, including a cylindrical shell 1. The cylindrical shell 1 includes a material-changing chamber 11 and a heat exchange chamber 12. A partition plate 2 is fixedly installed in the middle of the cylindrical shell 1. The partition plate 2 evenly divides the material-changing chamber 11 and the heat exchange chamber 12. An inlet 111 and an outlet 112 are respectively arranged in the two material-changing chambers 11. A plurality of heat exchange inserts 31 are inserted in a linear array in the heat exchange chamber 12. The heat exchange inserts 31 are perpendicular to the partition plate 2. Channels are formed between adjacent heat exchange inserts 31. The adjacent channels are respectively set as a medium flow channel 311 and a refrigerant flow channel 312. Both ends of the refrigerant flow channel 312 are fixedly connected with a closing plate 32. Circulation ports 113 are opened at positions of the cylindrical shell 1 near both ends of the refrigerant flow channel 312. A commutation end 4 is installed at one end of the heat exchange chamber 12 away from the material-changing chamber 11. The commutation end 4 communicates the spaces of the two heat exchange chambers 12. Connecting flanges are fixedly installed at the circulation ports 113, the inlet 111 and the outlet 112.

[0031] Specifically, the inlet 111 and the outlet 112 are arranged on both sides of one end of the cylindrical shell 1, and the space is separated by the partition plate 2, so that the medium flows in a U shape in the cylindrical shell 1. Heat exchange inserts 31 are arranged in the heat exchange chamber 12. The heat exchange inserts 31 are divided into a medium flow channel 311 and a refrigerant flow channel 312 through the arrangement of the circulation ports 113 and the closing plates 32, so that the medium flows along the cylindrical shell 1 from the inlet 111 to the outlet 112, and the refrigerant circulates through the circulation ports 113 along the refrigerant flow channel 312.

[0032] In this way, by arranging the heat exchange inserts 31 to divide the heat exchange chamber 12 into a medium flow channel 311 and a refrigerant flow channel 312, the high-temperature cracking gas and the refrigerant flow in adjacent channels through the medium flow channel 311 and the refrigerant flow channel 312. The heat exchange inserts 31 form a rectangular space, increasing the heat exchange area between the high-temperature cracking gas and the refrigerant. The heat exchange inserts 31 form a plurality of channels, reducing the influence of the plate heat exchanger on the flow rate.

[0033] In some feasible ways, the cylindrical shell 1 is rectangular cylindrical, the partition plate 2 and the heat exchange insertion plate 31 are both rectangular plates. The side of the charging cavity 11 is provided with a feeding port 111 and a discharging port 112. Two circulation ports 113 are provided on both sides of the heat exchange cavity 12, and the two circulation ports 113 are used for circulating the refrigerant. The reversing end 4 is in the shape of a U-shaped shell. The high-temperature pyrolysis gas enters the part of the heat exchange cavity 12 near the discharging port 112 from the reversing end 4 after passing through the part of the heat exchange cavity 12 near the feeding port 111. The arrangement of the two groups of refrigerant flow channels 312 enables the high-temperature pyrolysis gas to be cooled twice separately, further accelerating its cooling speed and improving the cooling effect.

[0034] As a specific implementation manner of a single cracking furnace heat exchanger structure provided by the application, a plurality of baffle plates 313 are installed in the refrigerant flow channel 312.

[0035] Overall, installing a plurality of baffle plates 313 in the refrigerant flow channel 312 enables the refrigerant to flow in an S shape in the refrigerant flow channel 312 along the baffle plates 313, making the space in the refrigerant flow channel 312 as full of refrigerant as possible, improving the contact with the high-temperature pyrolysis gas, and thus improving the utilization efficiency of the refrigerant.

[0036] In some feasible ways, the baffle plate 313 is in the shape of a rectangular plate, and openings are provided on different sides of adjacent baffle plates 313, enabling the refrigerant to flow from one side of the refrigerant flow channel 312 to the other side as much as possible and filling the space of the refrigerant flow channel 312.

[0039] Further, a telescopic joint is provided between the side of the heat exchange insertion plate 31 close to the partition plate 2 after the heat exchange insertion plate 31 is installed and the heat exchange insertion plate 31.

[0040] It should be understood that there are two kinds of media, hot and cold, in the heat exchanger. During use, the heat exchange insertion plate 31 may expand and contract due to the temperature difference. By providing a telescopic joint, a certain space is provided for its change.

[0041] Further, the upper side of the heat exchange insertion plate 31 is fixedly connected to the same grid plate 33, and the grid plate 33 is hermetically connected to the side of the cylindrical shell 1.

[0042] It should be understood that by setting the grid plate 33 to connect the heat exchange insertion plates 31 of the same group, the heat exchange insertion plates can be integrally taken out from the position of the sealing cover plate 13, further improving the convenience during cleaning and maintenance.

[0043] Furthermore, the reversing end 4 is bolted to the cylindrical shell 1.

[0044] It should be understood that by bolt-connecting the reversing end 4, the convenience during cleaning and maintenance is further improved.

[0045] In some feasible ways, the closing plate 32, the heat exchange insertion plate 31, and the sealing plate form a rectangular box-shaped grid plate 33 which is installed at the opening end of the rectangular box. The blank space of the grid plate 33 faces the opening. Rectangular openings are provided at both ends of the sealing cover plate 13, and the rectangular opening positions are set as circulation ports 113.
