Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of condenser technology, and in particular to a brewing air-cooled condenser. Background Technology

[0002] Brewing is a production process that transforms raw materials into alcoholic beverages through processes such as fermentation and distillation. During brewing, the fermented liquid is distilled to separate alcohol, and the condenser plays a crucial role in this process. It helps cool the vapor and convert it into liquid, ensuring the alcohol is collected. The efficiency of the condenser directly affects the quality and yield of the brewed beverage.

[0003] Traditional brewing condensers typically consist of cooling pipes, a cooling medium, and a collection container. The cooling pipes conduct steam, while the cooling medium, usually water, absorbs heat from the steam and cools it. The collection container collects the condensed liquid alcohol. These components work together to complete the condensation process, ensuring effective alcohol recovery.

[0004] The low efficiency of traditional brewing condensers stems from the fact that the cooling process often relies on basic cooling methods, such as water cooling or simple air cooling, resulting in low heat transfer efficiency. Furthermore, condenser designs typically fail to fully utilize heat recovery, leading to significant heat waste and poor cooling performance. This inefficient design directly impacts the brewing production cycle and energy consumption, increases operating costs, and reduces alcohol recovery rates, ultimately lowering the overall yield of the brewing process and affecting the production efficiency and economic benefits of the brewed product.

The circulating water pump 9 is connected to the finned tube 12 through the circulating water pipe 10 to form a cooling water circulation system. The steam inlet 6 is connected to the inside of the gas collection hood 2. The axial flow fan 4 is used to guide the steam introduced by the steam inlet 6 to the surface of the finned tube 12 for condensation. The condensate drain pipe 8 is connected to the condensate outlet of the finned tube 12 for collecting the condensed liquid. The control cabinet 5 is equipped with a controller.

[0031] Working principle: Steam enters the steam collection hood 2 through the steam inlet 6. The axial flow fan 4 guides the steam to the surface of the finned tube 12 inside the frame 1. At the same time, the refrigeration cycle system formed by the compressor assembly 11 and the finned tube 12 reduces the temperature of the finned tube 12. The circulating water pump 9 delivers cooling water to the finned tube 12 through the circulating water pipe 10, further enhancing heat dissipation. The steam condenses into liquid on the surface of the finned tube 12 and flows along the pipe wall into the slurry pipe 8 for collection. The silencer 3 outside the axial flow fan 4 reduces operating noise. The controller in the control cabinet 5 coordinates the operation of various components. The serpentine arrangement of the finned tube 12 with heat dissipation fins increases the condensation area.
