The upper and lower ends of the cylinder are sealed by an upper tube box and a lower tube box, respectively. An upper tube plate is provided between the upper tube box and the cylinder, and a lower tube plate is provided between the lower tube box and the cylinder. Heat exchange tubes that allow gas to pass through are provided inside the cylinder. The upper and lower ends of the heat exchange tubes pass through holes in the upper and lower tube plates, respectively, and communicate with the upper and lower tube boxes, respectively. The cylinder interior is provided with... The cylinder has a number of baffles fixedly connected and staggered on its left and right inner walls. The upper tube box has an air inlet on its side wall and the lower tube box has an air outlet on its side wall. One end of the cylinder has a circulating water inlet located on the side where the lowermost baffle is fixed to the cylinder. The other end of the cylinder has a circulating water outlet located on the side where the uppermost baffle is fixed to the cylinder. The heat exchange tube has a number of bends in its middle section. The bends are arranged alternately on both sides with the central axis of the heat exchange tube as the reference.

The interior of the cylindrical body 1 is provided with heat exchange tubes 4 that allow gas to pass through. The upper and lower ends of the heat exchange tubes 4 pass through holes in the upper tube plate 21 and the lower tube plate 31, respectively, and communicate with the upper tube box 2 and the lower tube box 3. The interior of the cylindrical body 1 is provided with a plurality of baffles 5 that are fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the cylindrical body 1 and arranged alternately. The side wall of the upper tube box 2 is provided with an air inlet 22, and the side wall of the lower tube box 3 is provided with... The cylinder 1 has an air outlet 32. One end of the cylinder 1 is provided with a circulating water inlet 11, which is located on the side where the lowest baffle 5 is fixed to the cylinder 1.

The heat exchange tube 4 has a number of bends 41 in the middle. The bends 41 are arranged alternately to bend to both sides with the central axis of the heat exchange tube 4 as a reference. In this embodiment, by providing a number of baffles 5 arranged in an alternating manner, the residence time of the circulating water in the cylinder 1 is increased. The number of bends 41 in the middle of the heat exchange tube 4 increases the residence time of the gas to be cooled in the cylinder 1, thereby doubly improving the heat exchange efficiency and achieving the required cooling effect.
