Description

One-third fan-shaped spiral baffle shell-and-tube heat exchanger

technical field

The utility model relates to a shell-and-tube heat exchanger with spiral baffles, in particular to the technical field of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger with equilateral triangle arrangement of pipes.

Background technique

The shell and tube heat exchanger is still the mainstream type of heat exchange equipment because of its simple structure and high pressure. Although the commonly used bow-shaped baffles are simple to manufacture, they have disadvantages such as flow dead zone, large flow resistance, and large tube bundle support span at the gap, which is easy to induce vibration damage, etc., thus giving birth to many new tube bundle support solutions. Spiral baffles are one of them. Theoretically, the spiral baffle is a curved surface, which is difficult to manufacture. At present, there is an improvement plan for 1/4 ellipse/fan-shaped spiral baffles. Each layer of baffles is composed of 4 pieces of 1/4 ellipse/fan-shaped baffles. The connection can form the shell-side spiral channel. Since a large number of shell-and-tube heat exchangers use the most compact regular triangular arrangement of tube bundles, this makes it difficult to mark and position inclined tube holes on 1/4 elliptical/fan-shaped baffles. This affects the popularization and application of this type of baffle.

Contents of the invention

The object of the present invention is to provide a one-third fan-shaped spiral baffle shell-and-tube heat exchanger with high heat exchange efficiency, reduced resistance loss, and suitable for pipe arrangement in an equilateral triangle.

The present invention adopts following technical scheme for realizing above-mentioned purpose:

The invention includes a cylindrical shell, a tube bundle, a left tube plate, a right tube plate, a fluid inlet connector, and a fluid outlet connector. The two tube plates are concentrically arranged and welded at both ends of the cylindrical shell. The pipes penetrate through the tube plate at one end and protrude from the right tube plate. The tube ends of each tube are welded or expanded with the tube plate; the fluid inlet joints and fluid outlet joints are arranged on the sides of both ends of the cylindrical shell ; It is characterized in that: it also includes several baffles, each baffle is arranged obliquely in the cylindrical shell, and each baffle is composed of a curved edge tangent to the ellipse and two symmetrical to the ellipse. The straight sides of the semi-short axis of each baffle occupy about one-third of the inner cross-sectional circle of the cylindrical shell, and the two straight sides are respectively located in the natural interval of the tube bundle; the baffle The semi-short axis of the tangent ellipse is the reference line, which is perpendicular to the axis of the shell and coincides with the center line of a pipe hole of the regular triangle arrangement pipe included in the baffle; the two straight sides are also connected to the other direction The line connecting the center of the tube holes is parallel; each baffle is inclined with the reference line as the axis; The outer rings of the plates are connected end to end, and the tube plate is divided into three trisected symmetrical areas corresponding to the sector occupied by each baffle plate. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the tube holes.

It is better that the utility model can utilize the space between the three equal divisions of the symmetrical areas divided on the tube sheet to set partition plates in the heads at both ends of the heat exchanger to form three-tube-pass flow.

The shape of the fan-shaped baffle plate of the present utility model is actually an ellipse sector, and the two straight sides are symmetrical to the semi-minor axis (datum line) of the ellipse, the lengths are equal, and the included angles between the two straight sides and the datum line are equal; The angle between the sides will be slightly greater than 120° depending on the inclination angle β; the front edge of the rear baffle of two adjacent baffles and the rear edge of the previous baffle are at the beginning and end of the outer ring of the baffles When connecting, there should be a small amount of overlap. The overlapping margin is based on the principle of facilitating drilling and not interfering with adjacent tube bundles. Setting the overlapping margin is conducive to reducing the reverse leakage at the junction of adjacent baffles.

The utility model adopts the above-mentioned technical scheme, and has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

1. The fluid on the shell side changes from the serpentine flow of the bow baffle scheme to the spiral flow of this scheme. The flow direction of the former is constantly changing, resulting in local resistance loss that does not contribute to heat transfer, while the flow direction of the latter is basically unchanged without additional local resistance loss. Since each baffle covers all the fluid passages, and the distance between the support points of the tube bundle remains unchanged, the support position changes gradually, which avoids the flow dead zone of the bow baffle scheme and the excessively large support span of some tube bundles at the gap, which is easy to cause resonance. The problem of vibration damage makes this scheme not only improve heat transfer efficiency, reduce flow resistance, but also improve strength conditions. For occasions where the shell side volume flow rate is relatively large, double-ended spiral baffles can be used to reduce the layer distance and the support distance of the tube bundle.

2. The pipe layout design method of the utility model is to divide the area into thirds and then arrange the pipes. The tube bundles in the area are arranged separately, so the design is relatively convenient, and it is easy to realize the symmetry of the shape of the baffle plate and the pipe layout. The arrangement relationship between tube bundles in adjacent areas will change from the cross row inside the area to the straight row at the junction.

3. Since each baffle is inclined with the reference line as the axis, the size of the baffle plate in the direction parallel to the reference line remains unchanged, while the dimension of the tube-hole spacing in the direction perpendicular to the reference line is slightly enlarged. It needs to be divided by cosβ, the two The included angle of the right-angled sides is a single-valued function of the inclination angle β, so it is relatively easy to realize the blanking of one-third fan-shaped baffles and the positioning and marking processing of inclined tube holes on the baffles.

4. Using the space between the three equal parts of the symmetrical area divided on the tube sheet, a partition plate is arranged in the heads at both ends of the heat exchanger, and a three-tube flow can also be formed. The three-tube flow can not only increase the flow rate of the fluid in the tube, but also be closer to the counter-current heat transfer than the even-numbered tube flow. Compared with the unequal three-section fan-shaped spiral baffle heat exchanger suitable for uniform arrangement of tubes, the symmetry of the two straight sides brings convenience to the scribing, processing and assembly of the baffles. Therefore, for the spiral baffle heat exchanger that can adopt partitioned pipe arrangement, the proposal of the utility model has better flexibility. The tube bundle arrangement method of partition tube layout can also be applied to the three-point elliptical spiral baffle heat exchanger.
