DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiment of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiment described is only a part of the embodiment of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments (for the convenience of description and understanding, the following is Figure 1 Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] See also Figure 1The utility model provides a technical solution: a large temperature difference composite evaporative air cooler, comprising a shell 10, with air inlet windows 6 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower end of the shell 10, an evaporation tube bundle 5 and a spray system 4 are respectively arranged from bottom to top inside the shell 10, the spray system 4 comprises a spray water valve 41, a spray water upper water pipe 42, a water collecting tank 43, a spray water pipe 44 and a nozzle 45, one end of the spray water pipe 44 is connected to the water collecting tank 43 through the spray water upper water pipe 42, a spray water valve 41 is arranged on the spray water upper water pipe 42, the spray water pipe 44 is arranged on one side of the water collecting tank 43, and the nozzles 45 are evenly distributed on the lower side of the spray water pipe 44, the evaporation tube bundle 5 is located above the air inlet window 6, a fan 1 is arranged on the top of the shell 10, and an air cooling tube bundle 2 is arranged on the outside of the shell 10. 2 includes finned tubes 21, air-cooling section outlet pipes 22, and air-cooling section inlet pipes 23. The air-cooling section inlet pipe 23 is connected to one end of the finned tubes 21, and the other end of the finned tubes 21 is connected to the air-cooling section outlet pipe 23. The air-cooling section outlet pipe 23 is located above the spray system 4 and is connected to the upper end of the evaporator tube bundle 5. When high-temperature water passes through the air-cooling tube bundle 2, it first exchanges heat with cold air. The heat exchange temperature range of air cooling is 70-130°C. The high-temperature section can be heat-exchanged through the finned tubes 21 first. The heat-exchanged water enters the evaporator tube bundle 5 and exchanges heat with the water sprayed from the spray system 4 again. The temperature range of evaporation heat exchange is 40-70°C. The low-temperature section exchanges heat through evaporation. This can improve heat exchange efficiency. Heat exchange is mainly achieved through air cooling, reducing the demand for spray water and saving energy.

[0017] Furthermore, in order to improve the heat exchange efficiency, the evaporation tube bundle 5 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the shell 10, and the number of air-cooling tube bundles 2 is two groups. The two groups of air-cooling tube bundles 2 are symmetrically arranged on the outside of the shell 10, and each group of air-cooling tube bundles 2 is connected to one evaporation tube bundle 5.

[0018] Furthermore, in order to save installation space, the air-cooling tube bundle 2 is arranged vertically.

[0019] Furthermore, in order to realize the recycling of water and save energy, a spray water tank 7 is provided at the bottom of the shell 10 , and one end of the spray water tank 7 is connected to the spray system 4 through a spray water pump 8 .

[0020] Furthermore, in order to achieve the purpose of demisting, a baffle 9 is provided at the upper end of the shell 10 facing the air-cooling tube bundle 2. After the cold air enters from the side of the air-cooling tube bundle, it is mixed with the humid hot air after heat exchange in the baffle 9 to form dry hot air, thereby avoiding the generation of white fog. A water collector 3 is provided above the spray system 4. After the cold air exchanges heat with the humid hot air, part of the humid hot air will condense into water droplets and be recovered through the water collector 3.

[0021] During use, high-temperature water enters the finned tubes 21 from the air-cooling section inlet pipes 23 on both sides. Under the action of the fan 1, the high-temperature water in the high-temperature section is first heat-exchanged by the cold air. After the heat exchange, it enters the evaporation tube bundle 5 connected to each other through the air-cooling section outlet pipe 22. The spray water sprayed by the nozzle 45 exchanges heat with the evaporation tube bundle 5 again, thereby achieving the purpose of heat exchange in an environment with a large temperature difference and greatly improving the heat exchange efficiency.

[0022] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
