The invention discloses a design and assessment method for a hollow
brick heat
storage type heater. The method comprises the steps of (1) performing
geometric design of a heat storage unit of the heater; (2) performing a performance
analysis method for the heat storage unit, wherein the performance
analysis method for the heat storage unit includes a pressure loss
analysis method and a heat stressanalysis method for the heat storage unit; (3) performing design and analysis method for a heat
insulation layer of the heater; and (4) performing a preliminary preheating design and analysis methodfor the heater. According to given benchmark design state requirements of the heater,
geometric design of a heater scheme can be performed by adopting the method, wherein the
geometric design comprises operation of determining other geometric parameters such as the total height and the
maximum diameter of the heater, the height and the
diameter of a
heat storage material, the thickness of the heatinsulation layer and the like; and aerodynamic parameters in a working process of the heat
storage type heater can be further assessed by adopting the method, namely, calculation can be performed toobtain an
airflow mass flux characteristic of the heat storage unit under a benchmark condition, an on-way change of a local
maximum temperature difference of the heat storage unit in a benchmark operation state, radial temperature distribution of a heat storage array in a preheating process and the like.
