[0028] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0029] Currently, the causes of leakage in the tube bundles of heat pipe gas heaters generally fall into the following categories: (1) Long-cycle boiling and condensation, the working fluid in the tube forms non-condensable gas.

[0030] (2) Temperature fluctuations cause excessive thermal stress, tube leakage, and loss of working fluid.

[0031] Therefore, the design concept of this application is to use high-temperature flue gas to exchange heat and raise the temperature of coal gas, thereby avoiding the defects of the aforementioned heat pipe coal gas heaters from the root.

[0032] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this application provides a cross-shaped vertical plate gas heater for gas power generation, including a frame, on which a heat exchange core is provided. The heat exchange core includes several longitudinally arranged S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1; the S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 are arranged in pairs to form a plate pair, and a longitudinal gas channel 2 is formed between adjacent plate pairs. A transverse flue gas channel 3 is formed between the two S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 of the plate pair, and the longitudinal gas channel 2 and the transverse flue gas channel 3 are arranged adjacent to each other.

[0033] The frame includes square frames on the front and rear sides and a center-spacer plate 6 between the square frames on the front and rear sides. The square frames include toothed horizontal plates 4 and side-bent vertical plates 5. In use, the above components are welded together. The toothed horizontal plates 4 are welded to the top and bottom of the sealing plate II and the end of the sealing plate I 7, respectively, to seal the space of the longitudinal gas channel 2 and the transverse flue gas channel 3, and to isolate the flue gas from contact with the gas. The center-spacer plate 6 is connected to the sealing plate I 7 to fix the gas side channel and increase the strength of the plate pair. The side-bent vertical plates 5 are used to connect the toothed horizontal plates 4 to form the frame. The welding of the side-bent plates ensures the integrity of the frame.

[0034] Among them, the top and bottom of the two S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 of the plate pair are respectively provided with sealing plates I7, and sealing plates I7 are connected to the center fixed distance plate 6.

[0035] Understandably, the sealing plate I7 ​​adopts a V-shaped structure. The two legs of the V-shaped structure are connected to the two S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 respectively, thereby sealing the top and bottom of the space between the two S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 (the space of the flue gas transverse channel 3) in a set of plates. Note that the edges of the two legs of the V-shaped structure are also wavy, which should be adapted to the shape of the S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 to facilitate welding.

[0036] Among them, the front and rear sides of the two S-shaped curved corrugated plates 1 of the adjacent plate pair are respectively provided with sealing plates 2. The top and bottom of the sealing plates 2 are connected to the toothed horizontal plate 4 at the top and the toothed horizontal plate 4 at the bottom, respectively. The toothed horizontal plate 4 is connected to the end of the sealing plate 1 7.

[0037] It is understandable that the sealing plate II7 adopts a V-shaped structure. The two legs of the V-shaped structure are connected to the two S-shaped corrugated plates 1 of the adjacent plate pair respectively (that is, the two legs of the V-shaped structure are connected to the rear S-shaped corrugated plates 1 of the front plate pair and the front S-shaped corrugated plates 1 of the rear plate pair respectively), thereby sealing the front and rear ends of the space (gas longitudinal channel 2 space) between the two S-shaped corrugated plates 1 of the two plate pairs. Note that the edges of the two legs of the V-shaped structure are also wavy, which should be adapted to the shape of the S-shaped corrugated plates 1 to facilitate welding.

[0038] The gas flow direction in the longitudinal gas channel 2 and the flue gas flow direction in the transverse flue gas channel 3 are cross-shaped; the gas in the longitudinal gas channel 2 and the flue gas in the transverse flue gas channel 3 are disturbed in opposite directions at 1 / 2 period.

[0039] The term "cross-flow" means that the flow directions of the two media, hot side (flue gas) and cold side (coal gas), are in a cross shape on both sides of the plate, with the flow directions forming a 90° angle. This is unlike a typical plate heat exchanger, which is a pure counter-flow, where high-temperature flue gas flows between the plates and low-temperature coal gas flows between adjacent plates.

[0040] In this application, low-temperature gas enters the space between the plates of the gas heater from port N3, is heated by flue gas, and then flows out from port N4. At the same time, high-temperature flue gas enters the space between the plates of the gas heater from port N1, exchanges heat with the gas, and then flows out from port N2.

[0041] The process is characterized by flue gas flowing horizontally from right to left and coal gas flowing vertically from top to bottom, with the flow directions of the two media forming a "cross".

[0042] This invention is applied to the steel and metallurgical industries, specifically to heat the coal gas at the tail end of a coal gas power generation boiler. The coal gas exchanges heat with the flue gas through a plate-type coal gas heater, significantly increasing the coal gas temperature and improving the thermal efficiency of the coal gas power generation boiler, thus making it more energy-efficient.

[0043] The equipment consists of plates, a frame (toothed horizontal plate, central fixed distance plate, side-bending vertical plate), expansion joints, etc. It uses S-shaped curved corrugated plates as heat transfer elements and features an advanced all-welded sealing design. It has the advantages of high heat transfer efficiency, compact structure, light weight, resistance to thermal stress, and high temperature resistance. The expansion joint is installed at the flue gas inlet to absorb the core expansion caused by the high temperature of the flue gas, ensuring operational safety.

[0044] S-shaped curved corrugated plates are a type of curved corrugated plate. Any cross-sectional view along the axis shows a double S-shape with significant curvature variations. The reinforcing ribs are twisted to improve structural strength. A nested design of "large corrugations + small corrugations" enhances local stiffness and overall buckling resistance. The S-shaped curved corrugated plates also feature adjacent airflows that are alternately reversed by half a cycle, strengthening heat transfer. Advantages of S-shaped curved corrugated plates include: strong turbulence, high heat transfer coefficient; resistance to thermal stress and high temperatures; high tensile strength; and anti-clogging properties.

[0045] This gas heater uses heat transfer plates (S-shaped curved corrugated plates) to replace traditional tubes and heat pipes. The S-shaped curved corrugated plates cause adjacent airflows to be disturbed in opposite directions for half a cycle, which enhances heat exchange. The material is 2205 or 254SMo, which has stronger corrosion resistance.

[0046] Flue gas and coal gas exchange heat through plates, completely isolating the hot and cold fluids. Because the cross-sectional shape of the heat transfer plates changes continuously along the fluid flow direction, the fluid turbulence is greatly enhanced, thus increasing the fluid's heat transfer performance. Furthermore, the smooth plate surface results in lower fouling thermal resistance. The equipment adopts a fully welded structure, ensuring excellent sealing performance and effectively preventing media leakage. The plate welding utilizes automated wheel welding technology, with timely tracking, positioning, tightening, and inspection of the welding process to guarantee the welding quality of the plates and tubes.

[0047] Gas heaters can achieve turbulent flow at a flow rate of 3 m / s, and the design uses 10 to 14 m / s. At this flow rate, it is optimal to reduce dust deposition, enhance heat transfer, reduce wear, and lower resistance.

[0048] The cross-flow design ensures that the flue gas outlet temperature is above the acid dew point temperature, reducing plate corrosion caused by acid dew point and improving equipment service life.

[0049] The plate gas heater features a modular structure design, allowing for flexible combinations based on specific operating conditions, ensuring that operating parameters are met.

[0050] Through the above improvements, the advantages of this application are: improved heat transfer efficiency, corrosion resistance, and lifespan of the plate gas heater, and reduced ash accumulation in the equipment; avoidance of the disadvantages of heat pipe heat exchangers such as high-temperature tube rupture, low-temperature corrosion, easy blockage, large size, and short lifespan; and improved production and assembly efficiency through modular structural design, facilitating equipment transportation and on-site installation.
