Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of brewing equipment, specifically a multi-cavity sleeve condenser. Background Technology
[0002] A brewing condenser is a device used to condense distilled spirits vapor into alcoholic beverages. Our company has developed a brewing condenser, model 2024119803829, which is a tubular condenser with a double-layered shell and tube structure. After repeated tests and demonstrations, it has achieved excellent condensation results and has been successfully developed.
[0003] Based on this design, we improved the hot water recycling and optimal condensation temperature of the condenser, and addressed the insufficient contact area between the condenser tubes and steam. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned technical difficulties and provide a multi-cavity sleeve condenser that facilitates hot water recycling and maintains optimal condensation temperature while increasing the contact area between the condenser tube and steam.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted is as follows: a multi-cavity sleeve condenser, comprising several condensing tubes, each condensing tube comprising a double-layer structure of an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve. The lower side of the inner sleeve is connected to a cold water chamber, and the upper side of the inner sleeve is connected to a high-temperature water chamber. The lower outer side of the outer sleeve is connected to an external circulation inlet pipe, and the upper outer side of the outer sleeve is connected to an external circulation outlet pipe. The lower end of the interlayer between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve is connected to a wine inlet chamber, and the upper end of the interlayer between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve is connected to a steam chamber. The upper end of the inner sleeve is positioned higher than the outer sleeve, and the section of the inner sleeve above the outer sleeve is provided with fins. The upper end of the outer sleeve is connected to the bottom of the steam chamber by a chamfer.
[0006] Furthermore, the fins are annular in shape, and the total height of the fins is 60-70mm.
[0007] Furthermore, the steam chamber is equipped with a steam pipe, and a water tank is provided at the interface of the steam pipe.
[0008] Furthermore, the cold water chamber is equipped with an internal circulation inlet pipe, and the high-temperature water chamber is equipped with an internal circulation outlet pipe.
[0009] Furthermore, the wine receiving chamber is equipped with a wine receiving pipe, which passes through the cold water chamber.
[0010] Furthermore, a steam distribution plate is provided at the connection between the steam pipe and the steam chamber, and the top surface of the steam distribution plate is conical.
[0011] Furthermore, the outer side of the outer tube is provided with multiple detour-guided baffles.
[0012] The beneficial effects of adopting the above scheme are as follows: This multi-cavity shell-and-tube condenser, through the use of a double-layer shell-and-tube structure combined with an independent inner and outer dual-circulation condensate water chamber design, achieves high efficiency and energy cascade utilization in the condensation process. The inner circulation condensate water chamber collects higher-temperature hot water for recycling; the outer circulation low-temperature cold water chamber ensures the optimal wine outlet temperature, significantly improving condensation efficiency and wine quality. The inner shell's top extension section is equipped with annular fins, greatly increasing the steam contact heat exchange area and improving condensation efficiency. The upper end of the outer shell is connected to the steam chamber with a chamfer, effectively reducing liquid accumulation and flow resistance. The conical top surface structure of the steam distribution plate helps to evenly distribute steam and avoid localized overheating. The wine inlet pipe passing through the cold water chamber allows for pre-cooling of the wine. The overall structural layout is reasonable, the condensation effect is good, the energy-saving benefits are significant, and it has outstanding industrial application value.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. The described embodiments are merely some, not all, of these embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0019] This application is an improvement based on the brewing condenser described in application number 2024119803829.
[0020] Example 1
[0021] like Figures 1-4A multi-chamber sleeve condenser is provided with several condensing tubes. Each condensing tube has a double-layer structure consisting of an inner sleeve 8 and an outer sleeve 9. The lower side of the inner sleeve 8 is connected to a cold water chamber 15, and the upper side of the inner sleeve 8 is connected to a high-temperature water chamber 13. The lower outer side of the outer sleeve 9 is connected to an external circulation inlet pipe 5, and the upper outer side of the outer sleeve 9 is connected to an external circulation outlet pipe 3. The lower end of the sandwich between the inner sleeve 8 and the outer sleeve 9 is connected to a wine chamber 10, and the upper end of the sandwich between the inner sleeve 8 and the outer sleeve 9 is connected to a steam chamber 14. The upper end of the inner sleeve 8 is set higher than the outer sleeve 9, and the section of the inner sleeve 8 above the outer sleeve 9 is provided with fins 11. The upper end of the outer sleeve 9 is connected to the bottom of the steam chamber 14 by a chamfer.
[0022] Fins 11 are provided at the upper end of the inner sleeve 8 (in the steam chamber 14), which can significantly increase the contact area between the condenser tube and the steam, and improve the condensation effect. A chamfered design is adopted at the connection between the outer sleeve 9 and the bottom plate of the steam chamber 14 to prevent liquid stagnation, reduce steam flow resistance, and increase steam flow velocity.
[0023] The steam from brewing distillation is connected to steam pipe 1, and the connection is sealed using a water tank. Condensate pipes are connected to the external circulation inlet pipe 5 and the internal circulation inlet pipe 6. Condensate flows from bottom to top through the inner channel of the inner sleeve 8 and the outer channel of the outer sleeve 9, while steam is introduced from top to bottom through the interlayer between the inner sleeve 8 and the outer sleeve 9. The condensed liquor flows from the inside of the inner sleeve 8 to the receiving chamber 10, and then flows out from the receiving pipe. The steam chamber 14 is equipped with steam pipe 1, and a water tank is provided at the interface of steam pipe 1. The cold water chamber 15 is equipped with an internal circulation inlet pipe 6, and the high-temperature water chamber 13 is equipped with an internal circulation outlet pipe 2. The receiving chamber 10 is equipped with a receiving pipe 7, which passes through the cold water chamber 15.
[0024] The lower side of the inner sleeve 8 is connected to the cold water chamber 15, and the upper side of the inner sleeve 8 is connected to the high-temperature water chamber 13, forming an internal circulation condensate channel. The steam chamber 14 passes above the internal circulation condensate channel, and the condensate is significantly heated. The hot water flowing out from the internal circulation outlet pipe 2 has a higher temperature and can be recycled.
[0025] The lower outer side of the outer sleeve 9 is connected to the external circulation water inlet pipe 5, and the upper outer side of the outer sleeve 9 is connected to the external circulation water outlet pipe 3, forming an external circulation condensate channel. The upper end of the external circulation condensate channel does not pass through the steam chamber 14, so the heating is not very significant, thus maintaining a low condensate temperature, which makes it easy to adjust and maintain the optimal dispensing temperature of the sauce-flavored liquor.
[0026] Example 2
[0027] Based on implementation 1, the fins 11 are further defined as follows: the fins 11 are annular in shape, with a total height of 60-70 mm, and an inner height of approximately 95 mm within the steam chamber 14. A steam distribution plate is provided at the connection between the steam pipe 1 and the steam chamber 14, with a conical top surface. This ensures that the steam flowing from the steam pipe 1 enters the condenser pipe evenly, preventing uneven condensation. Multiple meandering baffles 12 are provided on the outer side of the outer casing 9. Since the condensate flowing directly from the external circulation inlet pipe 5 to the external circulation outlet pipe 3 may not undergo sufficient heat exchange, multiple meandering baffles 12 are provided on the outer side of the condenser's outer casing 9 to allow the condensate to flow in a meandering manner. This increases the number of contacts between the condensate and the condenser pipe, significantly improving the uniformity of heat exchange.
[0028] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
[0029] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
