Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat exchange equipment, specifically to a tube-type heat exchange device. Background Technology

[0002] A tube-and-tube heat exchanger is a type of heat exchanger designed with a tube bundle arrangement. Depending on the tube bundle arrangement, fluid flow path, and heat transfer mechanism, tube-and-tube heat exchangers can be classified into several types, such as immersion tube arrays and shell-and-tube arrays. Each type has its specific application scenarios and advantages, capable of meeting the heat exchange requirements under different process conditions. Its working principle is based on heat conduction and convection heat transfer. When two fluids at different temperatures flow through the tube side and shell side of the heat exchanger respectively, heat is transferred from the high-temperature fluid to the low-temperature fluid through the tube walls, thus achieving heat exchange.

[0003] A high-efficiency heat exchange tube-type greywater heat exchanger with publication number CN219015042U is disclosed. Each pair of adjacent tube banks are arranged alternately. Each tube bank includes several heat exchange tubes welded together side by side. The cross-section of each heat exchange tube is crescent-shaped and the planar side of each heat exchange tube faces upward. A greywater inlet is opened at the top of the shell and a greywater outlet is opened at the bottom of the shell. A water inlet for heating is opened at one end of the shell in the horizontal direction and a water outlet for heating is opened at the other end. One end of several heat exchange tubes is connected to the water inlet for heating and the other end is connected to the water outlet for heating.

[0004] However, in the current tube heat exchange process, when cold fluid is injected into the tube core, the inconsistent height of each tube core causes a time difference in the flow of liquid within the tube core, and also leads to the presence of air bubbles in the liquid within the tube core.

The diameter of the hot fluid inlet pipe 7 is larger than the diameter of the hot fluid outlet pipe 4.

[0041] The lower side of the refrigeration cylinder 1 is provided with two or more support legs 5, and each support leg 5 is provided with a mounting plate 501 at its bottom end. The mounting plate 501 has two or more mounting holes 502.

[0042] Working principle and technical effects of this utility model:

[0043] The cold fluid enters the cold fluid inlet chamber 108 from the cold fluid inlet pipe 8, then enters the cold fluid rotary chamber 105 through the lower tube core 601, then enters the upper tube core 601 through the cold fluid rotary chamber 105 and enters the cold fluid outlet chamber 104, and finally exits through the cold fluid outlet pipe 9.

[0044] In the above process, before the cold fluid enters the cold fluid inlet chamber 108 from the cold fluid inlet pipe 8, the first electric telescopic rod 202 of the first opening and closing control structure 2 is at its maximum push stroke, so that the first opening and closing door 203 can seal the end of the tube core 601 located in the lower group. The second electric telescopic rod 302 of the second opening and closing control structure 3 is at its maximum push stroke, so that the second opening and closing door 303 can seal the end of the tube core 601 located in the upper group. After the cold fluid inlet chamber 108 is filled with liquid, the first electric telescopic rod 202 drives the first opening and closing door 203 to move downward to release the seal on the end of the tube core 601 located in the lower group. After the cold fluid rotary chamber 105 is filled with liquid, the second electric telescopic rod 302 drives the second opening and closing door 303 to move upward to release the seal on the end of the tube core 601 located in the upper group. This ensures the uniformity of heat exchange when the hot fluid enters the heat exchange chamber 103 through the hot fluid inlet pipe 7, and prevents air from entering the tube core 601.

[0045] The hot fluid is introduced through the hot fluid inlet pipe 7, passes through the liquid spiral channel formed by the spiral rib 602, and is then discharged through the cold fluid outlet pipe 9. During this process, the hot fluid and the cold fluid exchange heat through the tube wall of the core 601.

[0046] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
