Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of evaporators, in particular to a horizontal tube-pass parallel-connected shell-pass series-connected siphon-type evaporator. Background Art
[0002] At present, in the field of industrial refrigeration, large refrigeration units generally use dry shell and tube evaporators as the main heat exchange equipment. However, as society's requirements for energy conservation and environmental protection become increasingly higher, how to improve the energy efficiency ratio of the refrigeration unit has become particularly important. The heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator directly determines the energy efficiency ratio of the refrigeration unit.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent application, with publication number CN212006306U and titled "A Siphon Evaporator," includes a horizontal vapor-liquid separator and a horizontal evaporator. The horizontal vapor-liquid separator is fixed to the upper portion of the horizontal evaporator; the two ends of the horizontal vapor-liquid separator are connected to the two ends of the horizontal evaporator via a vapor riser and a liquid downcomer, respectively; and the horizontal vapor-liquid separator is provided with multiple layers of spoilers, each of which has evenly distributed liquid droplets. This utility model improves the internal structure of the vapor-liquid separator, increases the phase change rate of the evaporated refrigerant vapor in the vapor-liquid separator, and improves evaporation efficiency.
[0004] However, the inherent characteristics of existing dry evaporators limit their ability to improve heat transfer efficiency. This has led many energy-saving renovation projects to replace evaporators with larger heat exchange areas to achieve energy conservation and consumption reduction. However, this renovation is costly and the existing dry evaporators have to be scrapped. In particular, the renovation of some large-capacity dry evaporators incurs staggering material costs while achieving unsatisfactory energy-saving results. Therefore, this does not meet existing needs. Therefore, we propose a horizontal tube-pass parallel shell-pass series siphon evaporator. Utility Model Content
