Currently, the mainstream approach is to use gas-water coolers, which use a large amount of circulating cooling water to cool the gas to the temperature required by the process. However, the exhaust waste heat resources in existing technologies are not recovered and utilized, resulting in a significant waste of energy. At the same time, the cooling process consumes a large amount of circulating cooling water, and the circulating cooling water system requires power and water replenishment, thus causing waste of both electricity and water resources.

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of existing processes, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waste heat recovery type gas-water cooler to solve the problem that exhaust waste heat resources are not recovered and utilized in existing processes. Utility Model Content

[0005] The waste heat recovery type air-water cooler provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A waste heat recovery type gas-water cooler includes a shell, which is horizontally arranged. The inner cavity of the shell is divided into a hot water cavity, a heat exchange cavity, and a cooling water cavity by a water chamber partition. The hot water cavity, the heat exchange cavity, and the cooling water cavity are arranged sequentially along the length of the inner cavity of the shell. The top of the heat exchange cavity is provided with a gas inlet and a gas outlet, respectively. The gas inlet is used to receive medium and low temperature gas, and the gas outlet is used to discharge the low temperature gas after heat exchange.

[0007] The heat exchange chamber is equipped with a hot water tube bundle and a cooling water tube bundle, respectively. The hot water tube bundle is connected to the hot water chamber, and the cooling water tube bundle is connected to the cooling water chamber. The hot water tube bundle is used to recover waste heat from the gas, and the cooling water tube bundle is used to cool the gas temperature to the required temperature.

[0008] In one specific implementation scheme, a first end cap is provided on the end face of the hot water chamber away from the heat exchange chamber. The first end cap has a hot water inlet and a hot water outlet respectively. Both the hot water inlet and the hot water outlet are connected to the heat user terminal to form a heating cycle.

[0009] In one specific implementation scheme, a hot water baffle is horizontally arranged inside the hot water chamber, which divides the hot water chamber into a hot water inlet chamber and a hot water outlet chamber. The hot water inlet is connected to the hot water outlet chamber, and the hot water outlet is connected to the hot water inlet chamber. One end of the hot water pipe bundle is connected to the hot water inlet chamber, and the other end is connected to the hot water outlet chamber.

[0010] In one specific implementation scheme, a second end cap is provided on the end face of the hot water chamber away from the heat exchange chamber. The second end cap is provided with a cooling water inlet and a cooling water outlet. Both the cooling water inlet and the cooling water outlet are connected to the cooling tower to form a cooling cycle.

[0011] In one specific implementation scheme, a cooling water baffle is horizontally arranged inside the cooling water chamber, which divides the cooling water chamber into an upper cooling water chamber and a lower cooling water chamber. The cooling water inlet is connected to the lower cooling water chamber, and the cooling water outlet is connected to the upper cooling water chamber.

[0014] In one specific implementation, the housing also includes supports, with multiple supports fixedly disposed at the bottom of the housing.

[0015] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0016] 1. The waste heat recovery type gas-water cooler is designed to introduce medium-low temperature gas (350~80℃) discharged from the compressor into the heat exchange chamber through the gas inlet. Under the action of the airflow baffle, the residence time of the high-temperature gas in the heat exchange chamber is extended, allowing the medium-low temperature gas to fully exchange heat with the hot water and cooling water. The hot water enters the hot water lower chamber through the hot water inlet and then enters the hot water tube bundle. The hot water in the hot water tube bundle absorbs heat from the medium-low temperature gas and then enters the hot water upper chamber, and is discharged through the hot water outlet. The heated hot water can be delivered to various end-user heat users, such as radiators and hot water type lithium bromide chiller units, to achieve comprehensive utilization of heat recovery and improve the utilization rate of waste heat from the gas. After being supplied to users, the hot water circulates back to the hot water lower chamber for continuous heat exchange. Meanwhile, cooling water enters the lower cooling water chamber through the cooling water inlet and then enters the cooling water pipe bundle. The cooling water in the cooling water pipe bundle absorbs heat from the medium- and low-temperature gas, causing the temperature of the medium- and low-temperature gas to drop to the temperature required by the process, transforming it into low-temperature gas. The low-temperature gas is discharged through the gas outlet. After the cooling water is heated, it enters the upper cooling water chamber and is discharged to the cooling tower through the cooling water outlet. After being cooled by the cooling tower, it is circulated back to the lower cooling water chamber to continuously cool the medium- and low-temperature gas, so that the low-temperature gas reaches the temperature required by the process. This makes it convenient to use as a gas source to drive industrial pneumatic equipment, further improving the comprehensive utilization of compressor exhaust. Attached Figure Description

The hot water tube bundle 133 is used to recover the waste heat of the gas, and the cooling water tube bundle 134 is used to cool the gas temperature to the required temperature. A first end cap 15 is provided on the end face of the hot water chamber 12 away from the heat exchange chamber 13. The first end cap 15 has a hot water inlet 151 and a hot water outlet 152, both of which are connected to the heat user terminal to form a heating cycle. A hot water baffle 121 is horizontally arranged inside the hot water chamber 12, dividing it into a hot water upper chamber 122 and a hot water lower chamber 123. The hot water inlet 151 communicates with the hot water lower chamber 123, and the hot water outlet 152 communicates with the hot water upper chamber 122. One end of the hot water pipe bundle 133 is connected to the hot water upper chamber 122, and the other end is connected to the hot water lower chamber 123. A second end cap 16 is provided on the end face of the hot water chamber 12 away from the heat exchange chamber 13. The second end cap 16 has a cooling water inlet 161 and a cooling water outlet 162, both of which are connected to a cooling tower to form a cooling cycle. A cooling water baffle 141 is horizontally arranged inside the cooling water chamber 14, dividing the cooling water chamber 14 into an upper cooling water chamber 142 and a lower cooling water chamber 143. The cooling water inlet 161 is connected to the lower cooling water chamber 143, and the cooling water outlet 162 is connected to the upper cooling water chamber 142.

[0026] The working principle of the waste heat recovery type gas-water cooler disclosed in this application is as follows: The gas discharged from the industrial compressor is a medium-low temperature gas with a temperature of 350~80℃. The medium-low temperature gas is introduced into the heat exchange chamber 13 through the gas inlet 131. Under the action of the airflow baffle 135, the residence time of the high temperature gas in the heat exchange chamber 13 is extended, so that the medium-low temperature gas can fully exchange heat with the hot water and cooling water. The hot water enters the hot water lower chamber 123 through the hot water inlet 151, and then enters the hot water tube bundle 133 through the hot water lower chamber 123. After absorbing the heat from the medium-low temperature gas, the hot water in the hot water tube bundle 133 enters the hot water upper chamber 122 and is discharged through the hot water outlet 152. The temperature of the heated hot water is 60~95℃, which can be continuously supplied to various end heat users, such as radiators, hot water type lithium bromide refrigeration units, etc., to realize the comprehensive utilization of heat recovery and improve the utilization rate of gas waste heat. After the hot water is supplied to the user end, it circulates back to the hot water lower chamber 123 for continuous heat exchange. Meanwhile, cooling water enters the lower cooling water chamber 143 through the cooling water inlet 161, and then enters the cooling water tube bundle 134 through the lower cooling water chamber 143. The cooling water in the cooling water tube bundle 134 absorbs heat from the medium and low temperature gas, causing the temperature of the medium and low temperature gas to drop to the temperature required by the process, transforming it into low temperature gas. The low temperature gas is discharged through the gas outlet 132. After the cooling water is heated, it enters the upper cooling water chamber 142 and is discharged to the cooling tower through the cooling water outlet 162. After being cooled by the cooling tower, it is circulated back to the lower cooling water chamber 143 to continuously cool the medium and low temperature gas, so that the low temperature gas reaches the temperature required by the process, making it convenient to use as a gas source to drive industrial pneumatic equipment, and further improving the comprehensive utilization of compressor exhaust.
