Description

Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of automobile exhaust waste heat thermoelectric generation, and particularly relates to a silencing type thermoelectric generation system heat exchanger with a metal foam structure.
Background
The waste heat energy of the tail gas of the automobile accounts for about one third of the total energy of the fuel oil consumed by the automobile, and the waste heat energy contained in the tail gas can be recovered by utilizing the related waste heat recovery technology. The thermoelectric power generation technology can directly convert waste heat energy into electric energy, has the advantages of simple structure, small size, light weight, stable operation, no noise, long service life and the like, and is a technology with a very promising prospect.
In a thermoelectric power generation system, one of the most central components is a hot-end heat exchanger, which assumes the prominent responsibility of transferring heat from the exhaust gas to the thermoelectric power generation module. The traditional temperature difference power generation system is basically installed behind a catalytic converter and in front of an exhaust muffler of an automobile as an independent system. However, the space of the automobile chassis is very limited, and a large amount of space is occupied by post-treatment devices such as a DPF, a muffler, a three-way catalyst and the like. If the complete set of components of the thermoelectric power generation system is added, the spatial arrangement of the chassis is extremely difficult. Thus, if the thermoelectric generation system is integrated with components in the aftertreatment system, the space it occupies may be greatly reduced.
The metal foam material has very high specific surface area per unit volume and a complex framework structure, so that on one hand, the heat exchange area and the flowing turbulence degree of the metal foam material can be improved, and the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger can be greatly enhanced if the metal foam material is properly applied; on the other hand, the metal foam material has countless micropores on the surface and inside, and the micropores are communicated with each other, so that the metal foam material can interfere and destroy sound waves in the transmission process, and is a good resistive silencing material. The muffling type thermoelectric power generation system heat exchanger with the metal foam structure can fully utilize the advantages of metal foam, well integrate the hot end heat exchanger and the muffler of the thermoelectric power generation system, directly replace the muffler in the original vehicle aftertreatment system, ensure the excellent performances of the two, and remarkably save the occupied chassis space.

As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include the plural forms as well, and it should be understood that when used in this specification the singular forms "a", "an" and/or "the" include "specify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, elements, or modules, components, and/or combinations thereof, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other without conflict.
This embodiment provides a regular hexagon tubular structure heat exchanger, inside three cavitys that contain: the front and the back resistance silencing cavities and the middle resistance silencing cavity 4. The middle resistive muffling cavity 4 is filled with a metal foam material structure, the middle part of the structure is provided with a round hole and an elliptical hole which are respectively used as a channel of the air inlet circular tube 1 and a channel of the air outlet elliptical tube 7 and are respectively in transition fit connection with the air inlet circular tube 1 and the air outlet elliptical tube 7, and six trapezoidal holes 3 are formed around the structure and are used as channels for enabling tail gas to flow back to the front resistive expansion chamber 2 from the front resistive expansion chamber 2. The partial structure is also a main part for heat exchange. The hot end of the thermoelectric generation module 8 is tightly attached to the outer wall surface of the regular hexagon cylinder, and the cold end is tightly attached to the cooling water flow channel to form the whole thermoelectric generation system. Wherein, there is no pipe wall structure around the metal foam structure at the trapezoidal hole 3.
Wherein, the air inlet circular tube 1 extending out of the rear position resistant expansion chamber 6 is a perforated tube and forms a resistant silencing cavity together with the rear position resistant expansion chamber 6. Wherein, the front position resistance expansion chamber 2 and the trapezoid holes 3 around the metal foam form a second resistance silencing cavity.
Wherein, the circular air inlet pipe 1 and the elliptical air outlet pipe 7 can be both made of stainless steel materials,
as shown in fig. 1-3, when in use, automobile exhaust flows from the circular air inlet pipe 1, passes through the middle resistive muffling cavity 4 section and flows into the rear resistive expansion chamber 6. The gas then flows back through the trapezoidal holes 3 of the resistive muffler chamber section to the front resistive expansion chamber 2. Finally, the gas flows out through the gas outlet elliptical tube 7. The thermoelectric power generation module 8 is attached to the outer wall surface 5 of the heat exchanger, and the cooling mode of the module suggests water cooling, so that the cold end and the hot end of the thermoelectric power generation module can generate large temperature difference, thereby realizing thermoelectric power generation.
In the flowing process, firstly, when the tail gas passes through the resistive silencing cavity section of the circular air inlet pipe, the noise (mainly a middle-high frequency range) of the tail gas can be partially eliminated, and when the tail gas flows into the rear expansion chamber from the air inlet pipe, the low-frequency noise of the tail gas can be partially eliminated due to sudden change of the section. Then, the tail gas flows into the metal foam trapezoid holes of the resistive silencing cavity section, and exhaust noise is greatly reduced due to diffuse reflection of sound waves on the surface of the foam copper and the principles of expansion silencing, micropore silencing and the like. Meanwhile, the flowing speed of the gas is low relative to that of the gas inlet pipeline, and due to the permeability of the metal foam and the complexity of the framework, the gas can fully exchange heat with the gas, so that the heat exchange performance is greatly improved, and the temperature of the hot end of the thermoelectric power generation module attached to the outer wall surface is greatly improved. The gas flows into the front expansion chamber from the trapezoidal pore passage, and the change of the flow section can perform reactive noise elimination once again, so that the medium and low frequency noise is further reduced. Finally, when the gas flows through the gas outlet oval tube, the overall noise level is further reduced due to the existence of the perforated tube and the resistive cavity.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
