Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat exchanger technology, specifically to a flue gas heat exchanger and an energy-saving heating device. Background Technology
[0002] A heat exchanger is a device that transfers some of the heat from a hot fluid to a cold fluid; it is also called a heat exchanger. Heat exchangers play an important role in chemical, petroleum, power, food, and many other industrial productions. In chemical production, heat exchangers can be used as heaters, coolers, condensers, evaporators, and reboilers, and are widely used.
[0003] A flue gas heat exchanger is a heat exchange device used to exchange heat with flue gas. High-temperature flue gas, especially that produced by gas-fired hot water boilers, exchanges heat with the system water inside the boiler before being discharged into the atmosphere. Since this part of the flue gas still contains heat energy, the industry currently uses energy-saving devices and other equipment for heat recovery. However, most energy-saving devices have U-shaped heat exchange tubes that are spiraled from bottom to top, with the U-shaped bends of the heat exchange tubes exposed to the outside or insulated with insulation materials. This causes some heat to dissipate to the outside, or the U-shaped bends can affect the heat absorption efficiency of the water circuit, thus affecting the overall heat absorption effect.
