Description
The application is a divisional application of a patent of a snow making method of a snow making machine suitable for a normal temperature environment, which is applied for application number 202110536243.7, application date 2021-5-17.
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of test equipment of snow makers, in particular to a snow maker suitable for a positive temperature environment.
Background
A snow maker is a device for making artificial snow, and is generally used in a large amount in places such as a ski resort and an ice rink. The snow making machine is usually used in low temperature environment, and the snow making principle is that high pressure water and high pressure air are sprayed out through a nucleon device to form snow nuclei with small grain size, then the high pressure water is sprayed out from a nozzle in an atomized manner and is collided with the snow nuclei to form snow flakes, and the snow flakes are sprayed out by means of air flow blown by an air blower to realize snow making.
In an artificial snow field such as an artificial ski field or an ice and snow field, it is generally desired to control the ambient temperature as close as possible to a negative temperature environment of zero degrees centigrade in order to reduce the ambient temperature control cost. Thus, the snow field is often in a normal temperature environment exceeding zero degrees centigrade at times due to weather changes or insufficient control accuracy. Meanwhile, in a natural snow field, the environmental temperature may be higher than zero degrees centigrade due to solar heating and the like. When the snow making machine is used for making snow, the snow can be better generated only in a negative temperature environment after the high-pressure water is sprayed out from the nozzle and the nucleon device, and the snow making effect is ensured. Therefore, if the research and development of the snowmaking machine are carried out, the snowmaking machine still has good snowmaking capability under the normal temperature environment (mainly the temperature range of 0-1 ℃) close to zero degree centigrade, and the problem to be considered and solved in the field is provided.
CN201220534108.5 discloses a snowmaker atomising head with annular cooling water pipe, has set up the annular cooling water pipe that can utilize the high-speed wind that air-blast motor produced to carry out the cooling to being about to spun water among this patent scheme, adopts the mode that carries out the cooling to being about to spun water, improves the snowmaking effect. But the patent is more to avoid the adverse effect of too high water temperature on snow making. Because the temperature of the water to be sprayed is too low, the water is frozen to influence the snow making process, and the improvement of the snow making effect is always limited.
In addition, there is a technology of cooling the air flow blown by the blower to reduce the temperature of the air flow environment in which the fluid is ejected from the nozzle and the nuclear reactor, thereby improving the snow making effect. However, the method has low utilization efficiency of cold energy and large energy consumption for cooling the air flow of the blower.
Therefore, how to design a snow making technology which can improve the snow making capability of the snow making machine in a normal temperature environment, has low energy consumption and higher utilization efficiency of cold energy becomes a problem to be considered and solved by the personnel in the field.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the defects of the prior art, the technical problems to be solved by the invention are as follows: provided are a snowmaking method for a snowmaking machine suitable for a warm environment, which has low energy consumption and high cold energy utilization efficiency and can improve the snowmaking effect of the snowmaking machine in the warm environment, and a snowmaking machine suitable for the warm environment.
In order to solve the technical problems, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a snow making method for snow making machine suitable for normal temperature environment is characterized in that high-pressure air entering into the nucleon device is pre-cooled and cooled to enable the temperature of the high-pressure air to be lower than zero centigrade degree, and then the high-pressure air is mixed with the nucleon device to form snow nuclei for spraying.
In this way, in the method, the high-pressure air is cooled, the high-pressure water and the high-pressure air enter the mixing chamber where the nuclear device is located and are mixed, the temperature of the mixed fluid is greatly reduced, and the mixed fluid can not cause the water component to freeze even if the temperature is reduced under the condition of high pressure and high flow rate because the flow rate of the water and the compressed air is high, but the mixed fluid can rapidly generate fine ice slag to form snow nuclei under the decompression state after being sprayed out. This allows both the fluid ejected from the nucleator and the created snow core to have a lower temperature. And the temperature of the fluid sprayed out of the snowmaking machine is reduced due to pressure release expansion, so that the temperature of a fluid field of the fluid sprayed out of the snowmaking machine is lower than zero degree centigrade. Thus, in the flow field environment below zero degrees centigrade, snow nuclei with lower temperature due to pre-cooling can be combined with water mist to generate snowflakes more quickly and efficiently. Therefore, the quality and the effect of snow making are greatly improved, and the snow making machine can have excellent snow making effect and snow making efficiency in a normal temperature environment (usually 0-1 ℃). Meanwhile, the snow core which is taken as a core in the snowflake forming process is cooled in a targeted manner, so that the snowflake forming effect is better, and the utilization efficiency of cold energy can be greatly improved; compared with a mode of cooling air flow of an air blower, the snow forming quality is better, the cold loss can be reduced, and the utilization efficiency of refrigeration energy consumption is improved.
Further, the heat absorbed by the high-pressure air is conveyed to the outlet end position of the snowmaker shell for heating.
This is because at the exit end of the snowmaking machine housing, where the sudden release of expansion of the fluid ejected from the nozzles and the nucleator causes the region to be at a very low temperature, moisture can easily freeze there and affect operation. Therefore, the heat absorbed in the high-pressure air cooling process is transferred to the position, the temperature of the outlet end of the shell is increased, and the condition that the outlet of the nozzle or the nuclear device is blocked due to icing at the position to influence snow making can be prevented. And simultaneously, the full recycling of heat is better realized. The utilization efficiency of the energy consumed by the refrigeration of the high-pressure air is further improved.

Furthermore, the air cooling system comprises an air flow converging chamber, the air flow converging chamber is formed on an air flow channel between the nuclear device and the air compressor, a semiconductor refrigerating sheet is arranged on the inner wall of the air flow converging chamber, the cold end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is adjacent to the air flow converging chamber, the hot end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is adjacent to one end of a heat pipe, and the other end of the heat pipe is connected to the position of an outlet end of the shell of the snow making machine.
Therefore, the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is adopted to cool the air, and the air-conditioning device has the characteristics of quick response, good refrigerating effect and small volume. Meanwhile, the heat at the hot end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is transferred to the outlet end of the shell of the snow making machine by the heat pipe to heat the area at the outlet end, so that the phenomenon that the outlet of the nozzle and the outlet of the nuclear device are blocked to influence snow making due to icing at the position is prevented. Therefore, the heat absorbed by air refrigeration is recycled, and the utilization efficiency of the energy consumed by the air refrigeration is improved. And above-mentioned structure not only does not have the compressor, also does not have mechanical refrigeration links such as medium pipeline, and is simple relatively in structure, has the noise-free during operation, characteristics such as low to operational environment requirement.
Further, the heat pipe is a pulsating heat pipe.
The pulsating heat pipe has small pipe diameter (the inner diameter is generally 0.5-3 mm), and is formed by bending a metal capillary pipe into a serpentine structure, wherein one end of an elbow is a heating end, the other end of the elbow is a cooling end, and a heat insulation section can be arranged in the middle as required. The interior is vacuumized and filled with a part of working liquid, and the working liquid forms liquid columns and air plugs with different lengths in the tube under the action of surface tension. The working fluid is water, methanol, ethanol, Freon, etc. Generally, the structure can be divided into an open loop structure and a closed loop structure. Compared with the traditional heat pipe, the pulsating heat pipe has the advantages of simple structure and low cost; the volume is small; the heat flux density can be very high without burning out; and can be bent more freely; so that the heat exchanger can be arranged conveniently and the heat transfer efficiency can be improved.
Further, the air cooling system can adopt the following structural form, including a heating box, the heating box is located the shell exit end position surface of snowmaking machine, and the heating box inlet end links to each other with the gas transmission pipeline of air compressor machine, and the end of giving vent to anger links to each other with the air current passageway that is connected to the nucleon ware on the shell, and the heating box inner chamber constitutes the air current assembles the cavity, and it is provided with to paste on the heating box inner wall all around (about from top to bottom), and the semiconductor refrigeration piece inboard is the cold junction outside for the hot junction, and the semiconductor refrigeration piece outside is provided with many pulsating heat pipes along heating box circumference winding, and each pulsating heat pipe is arranged side by side along the inside air current direction of heating box and assembles the back formation tube bank to this side surface middle part position near snowmaking machine shell one side surface, twines in the round tube bank mounting groove of snowmaking exit end shell lip dorsal and makes every pulsating heat pipe all independently constitute the circulation.
Therefore, after air enters the heating box, cooling heat exchange is realized in the heating box by the semiconductor refrigerating sheets around the heating box, and then the air enters the nuclear device in the shell to be mixed with high-pressure water, so that the temperature of snow nuclei is reduced, and the snow making effect is improved. Meanwhile, heat obtained by heat exchange of the heating box is transmitted to the outlet end of the shell of the snow making machine by the plurality of pulsating heat pipes which are wound outside the heating box along the circumferential direction and depend on the gathered pipe bundle, and the outlet end is heated to prevent icing. Therefore, the structure not only can cool air to improve the snow making effect, but also can heat the outlet end of the shell by utilizing heat of heat exchange to avoid icing; the device also has the characteristics of relatively simple implementation structure and convenience for implementation. This scheme can make things convenient for direct transformation realization on current snow machine.
Furthermore, a layer of heat insulating material is wrapped outside the pulsating heat pipe on the heating box, a heat conducting material is filled between the inside of the heat insulating material and the semiconductor refrigerating sheet, and the part outside the heating box of the pulsating heat pipe winding device is located in the heat conducting material.
Therefore, the heat at the hot end of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet can be fully absorbed by the pulsating heat pipe, and the heat dissipation waste is avoided.
Further, the heat conduction material is heat conduction silica gel, and the heat insulation material is a foaming porous material.
This has better heat conduction effect and thermal insulation effect.
Furtherly, the polylith of having arranged along the gas flow channel section direction at the interval of length direction in the heating box leads cold aluminum plate that cold aluminum plate four sides is pasted mutually and is fixed at the semiconductor refrigeration piece as the inboard surface of cold junction, evenly distributed has the gas passing region that the gas pocket constitutes on half area of each leads cold aluminum plate, and the gas passing region of each leading cold aluminum plate goes up the gas passing region of gas pocket total area size and the gas transmission pipeline internal cross section size of air compressor machine unanimously, and adjacent leads cold aluminum plate's the mutual dislocation set of gas passing region.
Therefore, the cold-conducting aluminum plate can avoid the influence on air flow conveying caused by sudden change of the air passing section of the air conveying pipeline (the air flow area is suddenly increased when the air enters the heating box, and the air flow area is suddenly reduced when the air flows out of the heating box) due to the addition of the heating box; secondly, the contact area of the air flow and the heating box for realizing cold and heat exchange is greatly increased; and thirdly, the contact time of the air flow and the heating box for realizing cold and heat exchange is prolonged. The event can reduce the heat transfer effect that the heating box set up the heat transfer box that furthest improves under the prerequisite of carrying the influence to the air current at the at utmost, has improved the cooling effect to the air current.
Furthermore, the air cooling system can also adopt the following structural form that comprises a gas collecting groove which is arranged on the shell in a closed ring shape, the gas collecting groove is arranged at the adjacent position of the gas supply groove on the shell close to the outlet side, the gas collecting groove is provided with a gas collecting groove outlet which is communicated with the gas supply groove, the gas supply groove is respectively provided with a corresponding gas supply groove outlet which is communicated with each nuclear device aiming at each nuclear device, the gas collecting groove is provided with a gas collecting groove inlet which is connected with a gas transmission pipeline of the air compressor, the inner cavity of the gas collecting groove forms the airflow convergence chamber, one side of the gas collecting groove, which is far away from the direction of the gas supply groove, is provided with a heating side inner wall surface, a circle of semiconductor refrigerating sheet is attached to the heating side inner wall surface, and at least one pulsating heat pipe is arranged between the area of the hot end at the outer side of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet and the lip area at the outlet end of the shell in a back-and-forth manner and integrally and circumferentially arranged along the circumferential direction of the shell.
Therefore, before entering the air supply groove, the air firstly enters the air collection groove, is cooled and exchanged heat in the air collection groove by the semiconductor refrigerating sheet, and then enters the nucleus device through the air supply groove to reduce the temperature of the snow nucleus and improve the snow making effect. Meanwhile, the heat obtained by the hot end of the outer side surface of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is directly transferred to the lip area at the outlet end of the shell through the pulsating heat pipe which is wound and connected back and forth to heat the area, so that the icing is prevented. And each zigzag of the pulsating heat pipe can form two heat exchange channels between the area of the outer side surface of the semiconductor chilling plate and the lip area of the outlet end of the shell. Therefore, the structure not only can cool air to improve the snow making effect, but also can heat the outlet end of the shell by utilizing heat of heat exchange to avoid icing; the device also has the advantages of less quantity of needed pulsating heat pipes, very uniform and reliable heating effect on a heating area, and very high-efficiency and stable heat exchange efficiency. The scheme is more suitable for design, manufacture and implementation in new products of the snow making machine. In addition, the gas collecting groove which is parallel to the gas supply groove is separately arranged in the scheme to form the gas flow gathering chamber for heat exchange, so that the gas supply of each nuclear device by the gas supply groove cannot be influenced in the heat exchange process, and the normal work of the nuclear devices is ensured.

Furthermore, a layer of heat insulating material is arranged between the hot end outside the semiconductor chilling plate and the lip area of the outlet end of the shell outside the pulsating heat pipe at intervals.
Therefore, the heat pipe can be shielded from being dispersed to other areas due to the fact that the cold and hot middle positions of the heat pipe are subjected to heat transfer by the shell medium, and the heating effect of the heat pipe on the lip position of the outlet end of the shell can be better guaranteed. The heat insulating material can be made of porous foaming material.
Furthermore, cold conducting sheets made of aluminum materials are arranged in the air collecting tank at intervals, one side of each cold conducting sheet and the inner side surface of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet serving as the cold end are attached and fixed, air passing holes are distributed in the cold conducting sheets, and the total area of the air passing holes is consistent with the inner cross section of the air conveying pipeline of the air compressor.

And 5, heat exchange is realized by adopting a heat pipe, the structure is simple, small and reliable, two specific structural modes are designed to realize heat exchange, and the heat exchange can be flexibly implemented and applied according to needs.
In conclusion, the invention can improve the snow making effect of the snow making machine in a positive temperature environment, and has the advantages of lower energy consumption and higher cold utilization efficiency.

And the temperature of the fluid sprayed out of the snowmaking machine is reduced due to pressure release expansion, so that the temperature of a fluid field sprayed out of the snowmaking machine is lower than zero centigrade. Thus, in the flow field environment below zero degrees centigrade, snow nuclei with lower temperature due to pre-cooling can be combined with water mist to generate snowflakes more quickly and efficiently. Therefore, the quality and the effect of snow making are greatly improved, and the snow making machine can have excellent snow making effect and snow making efficiency in a normal temperature environment (usually 0-1 ℃).

Therefore, before entering the air supply groove, the air firstly enters the air collection groove, is cooled and exchanged heat in the air collection groove by the semiconductor refrigerating sheet, and then enters the nucleus device through the air supply groove to reduce the temperature of the snow nucleus and improve the snow making effect. Meanwhile, the heat obtained by the hot end of the outer side surface of the semiconductor refrigerating sheet is directly transferred to the lip area at the outlet end of the shell through the pulsating heat pipe which is wound and connected back and forth to heat the area, so that the icing is prevented. And each zigzag of the pulsating heat pipe can form two heat exchange channels between the area of the outer side surface of the semiconductor chilling plate and the lip area of the outlet end of the shell. Therefore, the structure not only can cool air to improve the snow making effect, but also can heat the outlet end of the shell by utilizing heat of heat exchange to avoid icing; the heat exchanger also has the advantages of less quantity of needed pulsating heat pipes, very uniform and reliable heating effect on a heating area, and very high-efficiency and stable heat exchange efficiency.

Therefore, the whole ring of the gas collecting groove upwards forms an airflow channel and realizes refrigeration, the refrigeration effect is improved, and the refrigeration uniformity at each position in the circumferential direction is ensured. Further make gas collecting tank circumference everywhere all can rely on the heat pipe of the zigzag arrangement of making a round trip to exchange the heat evenly to the lip position of the whole circumference of shell exit end, guarantee uniformity and the reliability of heating effect in circumference.
Wherein, the cross section of the gas collecting groove 12 is arranged in a triangle.
Therefore, the hot end of the outer side of the semiconductor chilling plate is just opposite to the lip area of the outlet end of the shell, so that the pulsating heat pipe can be more conveniently arranged, and heat transfer is more convenient.
And a layer of heat insulating material 14 is arranged between the hot end of the outer side of the semiconductor chilling plate and the lip area of the outlet end of the shell at intervals outside the pulsating heat pipe 7.
Therefore, the heat pipe can be shielded from being dispersed to other areas due to the fact that the cold and hot middle positions of the heat pipe are subjected to heat transfer by the shell medium, and the heating effect of the heat pipe on the lip position of the outlet end of the shell can be better guaranteed. The heat insulating material can be made of porous foaming material.
The air collecting groove is internally provided with cold conducting sheets 15 made of aluminum materials at intervals, one side of each cold conducting sheet 15 and the semiconductor refrigerating sheet are fixedly attached to the inner side surface of the cold end, air passing holes are distributed in the cold conducting sheets 15, and the total area of the air passing holes is consistent with the inner cross section of the air conveying pipeline of the air compressor.
