Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat exchangers, in particular to a fin tube structure of a heat exchanger. Background Art
[0002] A heat exchanger is an energy-saving device that transfers heat between two or more fluids at different temperatures. It transfers heat from the higher-temperature fluid to the lower-temperature fluid through heat conduction, convection, and radiation to meet process requirements. The operating principles of a heat exchanger are primarily based on heat conduction and convection. In a partitioning heat exchanger, the two fluids are separated by a wall, and heat is transferred through heat conduction through the wall and convection along the wall surface. In a direct-contact heat exchanger, the two fluids come into direct contact and mix, with heat exchange achieved through mixing and heat transfer. Finned tubes are a key component of heat exchangers.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent "A finned tube structure of a heat exchanger" with announcement number CN208171083U includes a tube column and a plurality of fins arranged on the tube column, the tube column includes an air inlet end and an air outlet end, the height of the plurality of fins is gradually reduced from the air inlet end toward the air outlet end on the tube column, ash guide holes are provided at the bottom of the plurality of fins, the spacing between the plurality of fins is gradually reduced from the air inlet end toward the air outlet end on the tube column, an arc-shaped protrusion is provided between two adjacent fin tubes on the tube column, and a wear-resistant coating is provided on the plurality of fins.
[0004] Although the above-mentioned existing technology can realize the installation and use of finned tubes, in actual use, on the one hand, the fins on the finned tubes are difficult to disassemble and assemble, and the fins will bend when the finned tubes collide. When replacing the bent fins, the entire fins need to be removed, which makes it difficult to replace the bent fins individually, thereby increasing the maintenance cost of the finned tubes. On the other hand, the heat transfer of the finned tubes is not good enough. When the heat exchanger is working, the inside of the finned tubes is filled with a flowing medium with temperature. At this time, the flowing medium transfers heat to the outside of the finned tubes after contacting the tube wall, resulting in a limited contact area between the medium and the tube wall, thereby reducing the heat transfer effect. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In this regard, we propose a finned tube structure for a heat exchanger. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a finned tube structure for a heat exchanger, so as to solve the problems in the above background art that the fins on the finned tubes are difficult to disassemble and assemble, and the heat transfer of the finned tubes is not good enough.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a finned tube structure of a heat exchanger, comprising a tube body, wherein limit plates are fixedly provided at the front and rear ends of the outside of the tube body, and a plurality of telescopic cavities are provided at the upper and lower ends of the inside of the limit plate, and the telescopic cavities are equidistantly distributed. The outside of the limit plate is sleeved with a plurality of mounting plates, and the mounting plates are equidistantly distributed. The mounting plates slide in cooperation with the limit plates, and four slide grooves are provided on the inside of the mounting plate near the tube body, and the slide grooves are a through-type structure. Eight fixed cavities are provided on the inside of the mounting plate away from the tube body, and the fixed cavities are a through-type structure. One end of the fixed cavity is connected to the slide groove.
[0007] Preferably, a fixing rod is provided inside the telescopic cavity, one end of the fixing rod extends into the interior of the fixed cavity, the fixing rod slides with the telescopic cavity, and the other end of the fixing rod located inside the telescopic cavity is fixedly provided with a support spring, and the other end of the support spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the telescopic cavity.
[0008] Preferably, a mounting seat is fixedly provided on the upper end of the mounting plate located at the opening position of the fixing cavity, and a limiting cavity is provided inside the mounting seat.
[0009] Preferably, an ejector rod is provided inside the limiting cavity, one end of the ejector rod extends to the outside of the mounting seat, the ejector rod and the limiting cavity are slidably matched, and fixed seats are fixedly provided on both sides of the ejector rod inside the limiting cavity, and the fixed seats and the limiting cavity are slidably limited.
[0010] Preferably, a return spring is fixedly provided on one end of the fixing seat, and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the limiting cavity.
[0011] Preferably, arc-shaped fixing plates are provided at the upper and lower parts of the tube body, and the arc-shaped fixing plates are welded and fixed to the tube body. A plurality of arc-shaped fins are provided at one end of the arc-shaped fixing plate close to the center of the tube body, and the arc-shaped fins are evenly distributed and welded to the arc-shaped fixing plate.
[0012] Preferably, a circular fin is provided at a middle position outside the mounting plate, and the circular fin is fixed to the mounting plate by welding.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0014] 1. The utility model can quickly fix the circular fin by means of the slide groove and the fixing rod. When fixing the circular fin, first align the opening on the mounting plate with the limit plate and sleeve the mounting plate on the outside of the limit plate. At this time, the mounting plate is slid outside the tube body until the mounting plate slides in front of the fixing rod. At this time, the fixing rod is pressed to retract the fixing rod into the telescopic cavity and the supporting spring is in a compressed state. The mounting plate is continued to be moved to make the fixing rod slide in the slide groove until the fixing rod moves to a certain position. At this time, the fixing rod is in the opening position of the fixing cavity and the supporting spring is reset at the same time. The fixing rod is pushed into the fixing cavity by the reset of the supporting spring, so that the circular fin is fixed to the outside of the tube body, making the fixing of the circular fin more convenient.
[0015] 2. The utility model can increase the contact area between the medium and the inner wall of the tube body through the curved fins and the curved mounting plate. When the tube body is in use, the medium flows inside the tube body. The curved fins provided in advance can increase the contact area between the medium and the inside of the tube body. At the same time, the curved fins can produce a turbulent effect when the medium flows, breaking the flow boundary layer, reducing thermal resistance, and further enhancing the heat transfer effect, so that the medium generates turbulence and eddy currents when flowing through the curved fins, increasing the contact area between the fluid and the fins, and improving the effect of convective heat transfer.
[0016] 3. The utility model can quickly remove the circular fin through the mounting seat and the ejector rod. When the circular fin is bent and needs to be removed, the ejector rod is pressed to move the ejector rod toward the inside of the mounting seat. At this time, the fixed seat on the ejector rod slides inside the limit cavity, and the fixed seat compresses the return spring. The ejector rod is continued to be pressed until one end of the ejector rod contacts and squeezes the fixed rod, so that the fixed rod is pressed back into the telescopic cavity. At this time, the fixed rod is disengaged from the slide groove, and the circular fin is pulled again to slide on the outside of the tube body until the mounting plate moves to another fixed rod. The fixed rod is pressed to enter the inside of the slide groove, and the ejector rod is pressed again to disengage the fixed rod from the slide groove. The above steps are repeated until the circular fin is removed from the tube body, which simplifies the removal steps of the circular fin and reduces the workload of the operator.
