Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of heat exchangers, and particularly relates to a leakage prevention structure of a multi-stream wound tube heat exchanger. Background Technique

[0002] The wound tube heat exchanger is a heat exchange device widely used in industrial production. The application prospect of the wound tube heat exchanger is very broad. First of all, with the country's high attention to environmental protection and energy conservation, the wound tube heat exchanger, as an efficient and energy-saving heat exchange device, is increasingly recognized and favored by the market. Especially in industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, and metallurgy, its application has become one of the main means to promote the adjustment of the energy structure and the promotion of green transformation and upgrading. Secondly, the wound tube heat exchanger can be applied to the heat exchange between various media, such as steam-water, water-oil, air-water, air-gas, etc., and has a wide application prospect in different industrial fields. In addition, the wound tube heat exchanger has a long service life, a simple structure, convenient maintenance, and a lower use cost than other heat exchange devices, so it also has more advantages in the market.

[0003] The working principle of the wound tube heat exchanger is mainly based on the heat transfer between the fluid inside the pipe and the fluid outside the pipe. Specifically, it directly exchanges heat between the internal fluid and the external fluid through a spiral tube with a smaller inner diameter of the pipe and a fixed tube with a larger outer diameter of the pipe. The internal fluid is generally a liquid or a gas, while the external fluid is cooling water or steam. When the internal fluid flows in the spiral tube, the heat it carries will be conducted through the pipe wall to the outer surface of the fixed tube, and then dissipated through the absorption of the external fluid, so as to achieve heat exchange.

[0004] The multi-stream wound tube heat exchanger is used in occasions where multiple working media need to be processed simultaneously, a large amount of heat needs to be transferred under a small temperature difference, and the operating pressure of the medium inside the pipe is relatively high. Since the multi-stream wound tube heat exchanger processes multiple working media, the problems of leakage prevention and cross-contamination between multiple working media need to be solved urgently. For this reason, we propose a leakage prevention structure of a multi-stream wound tube heat exchanger. Content of the Utility Model

The intermediate partition plate and the partition plate for separating processes are used for separating the inlet ends and the outlet ends of multiple groups of the fluid pipelines to form a plurality of fluid medium inlet cavities and fluid medium outlet cavities.

[0008] Preferably, the double tube sheet assembly includes an upper tube sheet assembly and a lower tube sheet assembly;

[0009] Both the upper tube sheet assembly and the lower tube sheet assembly include a plurality of annular plates and a circular plate. The plurality of annular plates and the circular plate form a convex plate structure that steps down from the outside to the inside.

[0010] The inlet ends and the outlet ends of multiple groups of the fluid pipelines are symmetrically arranged on the plurality of annular plates and the circular plate respectively.
