In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only used to distinguish in the description, and have no special meaning.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 To illustrate the present embodiment, the present application provides an integrated evaporator with supercooling and preheating functions, which comprises a tube box 1, a tube plate 2, a condensing tube bundle 5, a supercooling tube bundle 6, a first partition plate 3, a second partition plate 4, a tube side inlet connecting pipe 8, a tube side outlet connecting pipe 9, a preheating shell 7, a shell side inlet connecting pipe 10 and a shell side outlet connecting pipe 11. The tube plate 2 is fixedly arranged in the tube box 1 and divides the space in the tube box 1 into a tube side space and a shell side space. The condensing tube bundle 5 and the supercooling tube bundle 6 are both fixedly arranged on the tube plate 2 and are both located in the shell side space. The supercooling tube bundle 6 is located below the condensing tube bundle 5. The first partition plate 3 and the second partition plate 4 are arranged at intervals and divide the tube side space into a water inlet cavity 101, a water storage cavity 102 and a water outlet cavity 103. The water inlet cavity 101 is in communication with the inlet of the condensing tube bundle 5, the outlet of the condensing tube bundle 5 is in communication with the water storage cavity 102, the water storage cavity 102 is in communication with the inlet of the supercooling tube bundle 6, and the outlet of the supercooling tube bundle 6 is in communication with the water outlet cavity 103. The tube side inlet connecting pipe 8 is in communication with the water inlet cavity 101, and the tube side outlet connecting pipe 9 is in communication with the water outlet cavity 103. The preheating shell 7 is arranged in the lower half of the supercooling tube bundle 6, and a preheating cavity is arranged in the preheating shell 7. The shell side inlet connecting pipe 10 is in communication with the inlet of the preheating cavity, the outlet of the preheating cavity is in communication with the shell side space, and the shell side space is in communication with the shell side outlet connecting pipe 11.

[0037] The integrated evaporator with supercooling and preheating functions, high-temperature heat source steam enters the water inlet cavity 101 from the tube side inlet connecting pipe 8, then enters the condensing tube bundle 5 from the water inlet cavity 101, and is condensed into water after heat exchange with the saturated water in the shell side space in the condensing tube bundle 5, flows out of the condensing tube bundle 5 and enters the water storage cavity 102. The condensed water in the water storage cavity 102 enters the supercooling tube bundle 6, flows out to the water outlet cavity 103 after heat exchange, and finally flows out from the tube side outlet connecting pipe 9.

[0038] On the shell side, cold water enters the preheating shell 7 from the shell side inlet connection 10, exchanges heat with the subcooled water in the subcooled tube bundle 6, and then flows into the shell side space and finally flows out from the shell side outlet connection 11. In the shell side space, the entire condensing tube bundle 5 and part of the subcooled tube bundle 6 directly contact with the saturated water and participate in the evaporation process. When the condensing water on the tube side is cooled to near the temperature of the saturated water in the subcooled tube bundle 6, it cannot be further cooled by continuing to exchange heat with the saturated water. With this as the dividing point, the shell side feedwater preheating section is set, that is, the preheating shell 7 is arranged between the dividing point and the outlet of the subcooled tube bundle 6, to realize the preheating of the shell side feedwater and the deep subcooling of the condensing water on the tube side. The preheating shell 7 is attached to the subcooled tube bundle 6 and covers the lower half of the subcooled tube bundle 6, separated from the pool boiling in the shell side space. The medium in the preheating shell 7 can exchange heat with the medium in the lower half of the subcooled tube bundle 6.

[0039] The integrated evaporator integrating the subcooling and preheating functions is a three-section heat exchanger. On the tube side, the condensing process is carried out in the condensing tube bundle 5 to change steam into condensing water. The subcooling process is carried out in the subcooled tube bundle 6 to change the condensing water into subcooled water after being cooled again. On the shell side, the preheating process is carried out in the preheating shell 7. The cold water in the preheating shell 7 exchanges heat with the subcooled water near the outlet of the subcooled tube bundle 6. The cold water in the preheating shell 7 is heated to near the saturated water and then enters the shell side space. The shell side space is a standard pool boiling. The evaporation process is carried out outside the condensing tube bundle 5 and the upper half of the subcooled tube bundle 6.

[0041] Optionally, the water level in the shell side space is higher than the height of the condensing tube bundle 5. The saturated water in the shell side space submerges the condensing tube bundle 5 and the subcooled tube bundle 6.

[0042] Optionally, the integrated evaporator integrating the subcooling and preheating functions is also provided with an exhaust pipe 12 in communication with the water storage cavity 102. The upper part of the tube side space carries out the condensing process, and steam will continuously condense into water. However, the non-condensable gas in the steam cannot be condensed, such as nitrogen. If this part of the non-condensable gas cannot be discharged, it will accumulate more and more, eventually affecting the condensing process. Therefore, in order to avoid the accumulation of non-condensable gas affecting the condensing heat transfer, the tube side is provided with an exhaust pipe 12 in communication with the water storage cavity 102, to continuously discharge this part of the non-condensable gas.

[0043] Optionally, a plurality of baffles 71 are arranged in the preheating cavity, and the plurality of baffles 71 are arranged in intervals and staggered. The heat transfer efficiency of convection can be improved.

[0044] Optionally, a sealing plate is arranged between the preheating shell 7 and the tube box 1. The sealing plate is used to realize the sealing between the preheating shell 7 and the tube box 1. The shell side medium enters the preheating shell 7 directly from the shell side inlet pipe 10, and then enters the shell side space after passing through the preheating cavity.

[0045] Optionally, the tube side inlet pipe 8 is arranged above the tube box 1, the tube side outlet pipe 9 is arranged below the tube box 1, the shell side inlet pipe 10 is arranged below the tube box 1, and the shell side outlet pipe 11 is arranged above the tube box 1. The flow of the tube side medium and the flow of the shell side medium are staggered, and the heat exchange efficiency is improved. The shell side medium enters the preheating shell from the end close to the tube plate 2 to realize pure counterflow heat exchange.

[0046] Optionally, the condenser tube bundle 5 comprises a plurality of first U-shaped tubes, the inlets of the plurality of first U-shaped tubes are communicated with the water inlet cavity 101, and the outlets of the plurality of first U-shaped tubes are communicated with the water storage cavity 102. The heat exchange efficiency can be improved.

[0047] Optionally, the supercooling tube bundle 6 comprises a plurality of second U-shaped tubes, the inlets of the plurality of second U-shaped tubes are communicated with the water storage cavity 102, and the outlets of the plurality of second U-shaped tubes are communicated with the water outlet cavity 103. The heat exchange efficiency can be improved.

[0048] Optionally, two support columns 13 are arranged in intervals below the tube box 1. The support columns 13 are used to support the tube box 1.

[0049] Obviously, the above disclosed embodiments of the utility model are only used for helping to explain the utility model. The embodiments do not describe all the details, and the utility model is not limited to the specific implementation mode. According to the content of the specification, many modifications and changes can be made. The embodiments are selected and specifically described in the specification, so as to better explain the principle and practical application of the utility model, so that the person skilled in the art can well understand and utilize the utility model. Here, it is not necessary and impossible to exhaust all the implementation modes.
