Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat exchanger technology, specifically to a self-cleaning PTFE heat exchanger with backflushing. Background Technology
[0002] A heat exchanger is a device that transfers part 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, etc., and are widely used. For example, low-temperature polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) heat exchangers for power plants are new types of equipment used in power plants to reduce flue gas temperature and recover waste heat. Using fluoroplastic heat exchangers can prevent acid corrosion and reduce flue gas temperature to below 100 degrees Celsius. Zhengzhou University of Technology successfully developed a "limited expansion pressure heating welding" process for PTFE (F-4) tube sheets, solving the key technology of connecting fluoroplastic tubes to tube sheets. Subsequently, various types of domestically produced heat exchangers have been put into practical production and application with good results. Existing patent, patent publication number CN110345780A, discloses a heat exchanger comprising: a heat exchange assembly, which includes: multiple heat exchange tubes through which the heat exchange medium flows and connecting pieces connecting adjacent heat exchange tubes. Heat exchangers using embodiments of this disclosure can, for example, save energy and improve heat exchange efficiency.
[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the following drawbacks exist: backwashing is inconvenient in practical applications, which reduces the ease of use of the heat exchanger, affects its efficiency, and hinders normal operation.
