Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of reaction kettles, in particular to a cascade control temperature control unit for accurately controlling the temperature of the materials in a reaction kettle. Background Art
[0002] In industrial fields such as chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, and food, reaction kettles are important equipment for material mixing and chemical reactions. The temperature control in the reaction kettle is crucial for the stability of the production process and the quality of the products. Too high or too low temperature will directly affect the reaction rate, product yield, and safety. Therefore, in these processes, the accurate control of the temperature of the materials in the reaction kettle is a key topic in industrial production.
[0003] In order to achieve accurate control of the temperature of the reaction kettle, a cascade control system is usually adopted. The cascade control system realizes fine adjustment of the temperature in the reaction kettle by setting a main controller and a secondary controller. The main controller monitors the temperature of the materials in the reaction kettle and controls the temperature of external heating or cooling equipment such as heat exchangers through the secondary controller, thereby indirectly adjusting the temperature of the materials. This two-stage control method can effectively cope with common disturbances in the industrial production process and improve the response speed and control accuracy of the system.
[0004] In actual use, when the secondary controller controls the heat exchanger, it will be in a high-temperature environment for a long time. Especially when the heat exchanger works continuously, the secondary controller is easily affected by the surrounding high-temperature environment, resulting in an increase in the temperature of its internal electronic components, which may cause problems such as a decrease in control accuracy or equipment failure. And the controller of the cascade control system is usually an explosion-proof PID controller, which has high overall sealing performance, and its heat dissipation completely depends on natural heat dissipation of the shell, making it difficult to meet the heat dissipation requirements. Therefore, a cascade control temperature control unit for accurately controlling the temperature of the materials in a reaction kettle is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0029] Referring to Figures 1 - 5 , for an embodiment of the present utility model, a cascade control temperature control unit for precisely controlling the material temperature in a reaction kettle is provided, which includes:
[0030] A main body 100, which includes a heat exchange module 101 and a sub-controller 102 for controlling the operation of the heat exchange module 101. The sub-controller 102 is an explosion-proof PID controller, and the sub-controller 102 is externally connected to a main controller for monitoring the material temperature in the reaction kettle;
[0031] The first-level heat dissipation mechanism 200 includes an installation frame 201. The installation frame 201 is fixedly connected to the heat exchange module 101. A water tank 202 is fixedly connected to the front side of the installation frame 201. A water pump 203 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the water tank 202. A number of groups of first-level heat dissipation fins 204 are fixedly connected to the rear side of the water tank 202. A number of groups of first-level heat dissipation fins 204 all penetrate through the water tank 202. A heat dissipation strip 205 is also fixedly connected to the front side of the installation frame 201. The secondary controller 102 is detachably connected to the front side of the heat dissipation strip 205. A number of groups of second-level heat dissipation fins 206 are fixedly connected to the rear side of the heat dissipation strip 205. A serpentine channel 205a is formed inside the heat dissipation strip 205. Both ends of the serpentine channel 205a are fixedly connected and communicated with a water pipe 207. One end of one group of water pipes 207 away from the heat dissipation strip 205 is fixedly connected and communicated with the water tank 202. The other end of the other group of water pipes 207 away from the heat dissipation strip 205 penetrates through the water tank 202 and is fixedly connected to the water outlet of the water pump 203. The water tank 202 is filled with a water cooling liquid;
[0032] The second-level heat dissipation mechanism 300 is fixedly connected to the installation frame 201 and is used for air-cooling the first-level heat dissipation mechanism 200 and the secondary controller 102. The second-level heat dissipation mechanism 300 includes a housing 301, a heat dissipation fan 302 and a flow guide cover 303. The housing 301 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the installation frame 201. Two installation openings are symmetrically formed on the rear side of the heat dissipation fan 302. There are two groups of heat dissipation fans 302, and the two groups of heat dissipation fans 302 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two installation openings. The flow guide cover 303 is arranged on the front side of the installation frame 201 and is located between the water tank 202 and the heat dissipation strip 205. The rear side of the flow guide cover 303 is open on the side close to the secondary controller 102. Connecting plates 304 are fixedly connected to both the upper and lower sides of the flow guide cover 303, and the two groups of connecting plates 304 are both fixedly connected to the installation frame 201.
[0033] Among them, one group of heat dissipation fans 302 is positioned opposite to a number of groups of first-level heat dissipation fins 204, and the other group of heat dissipation fans 302 is opposite to a number of groups of second-level heat dissipation fins 206. A number of groups of first-level heat dissipation fins 204 are arranged at equal intervals, and a number of groups of second-level heat dissipation fins 206 are arranged at equal intervals, which is beneficial to ensuring the heat dissipation effect.
[0034] In addition, the water tank 202, the first-level heat dissipation fins 204, the heat dissipation strip 205 and the second-level heat dissipation fins 206 are all made of aluminum alloy material. The aluminum alloy material has strong heat conduction ability. The heat dissipation strip 205 and the second-level heat dissipation fins 206 are integrally formed. The integral formation is beneficial to ensuring the heat conduction performance.
[0035] It should be noted that there are four groups of outward-extending protrusions on the rear side of the secondary controller 102. Slots are provided at positions of the four groups of protrusions facing the heat dissipation slats 205. Screw holes are provided at positions of the heat dissipation slats 205 facing the four groups of slots and are fitted with screws. The four screws respectively pass through the four groups of slots and are then screwed into the corresponding screw holes. The secondary controller 102 is detachably connected to the heat dissipation slats 205 through the four screws.
[0036] Working principle: When the water pump 203 operates, the water-cooling liquid circulates between the water tank 202 and the heat dissipation slats 205. The water-cooling liquid takes away the heat of the heat dissipation slats 205 during the flowing process, cools down the heat dissipation slats 205, and the heat dissipation slats 205 dissipate heat from the secondary controller 102.
[0037] As Figure 2 , 3 and shown in FIG. 4, when the two groups of cooling fans 302 operate, the air flow first enters the inner side of the mounting frame 201 through the two groups of cooling fans 302, and then flows out between the water tank 202 and the heat dissipation slats 205 after passing through several groups of primary heat dissipation fins 204 and several groups of secondary heat dissipation fins 206. Under the guiding action of the guiding cover 303, the air flow blows towards the secondary controller 102. The several groups of secondary heat dissipation fins 206 increase the heat dissipation area of the heat dissipation slats 205, and the several groups of primary heat dissipation fins 204 increase the heat dissipation area of the water tank 202. The air flow dissipates heat from the water tank 202, the heat dissipation slats 205 and 105 during the flowing process.
[0038] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims of the present invention.
