Abstract

Methylcyclopentane (I) is used as heat-carrier at between -130 and +70 (-130 to -90) deg.C. ADVANTAGE - The increase in viscosity of (I) at low temps. is negligible, allowing optimum flow of the heat-carrier, short cooling times, and good cooling efficiency, with no danger of the heat-carrier freezing. The wide spread of temps. is an advantage. (I) is biodegradable.

Description

In der Tieftemperatur-Technik sind Wärmeträger-Pumpenkreisläufe bekannt, um z. B. einen Reaktor für chemische Reaktionen bei tiefen Temperaturen oder eine Probenhalterung für analytische Zwecke zu kühlen. Dabei wird dem zu kühlenden Objekt die Wärme durch einen Kühlkreislauf entzogen, der einen Plattenwärme­ austauscher enthält, der mittels Flüssigstickstoff gekühlt wird. Das Kühlmittel bzw. der Wärmeträger wird im Kreislauf umgepumpt. Durch regeltechnische Maßnahmen wird dafür gesorgt, daß ein Zufrieren des Wärmetauschers vermieden wird. Als Wärmeträger wird bei Tieftemperatur-Kühlkreisläufen häufig Toluol verwendet. Damit können Vorlauftemperaturen von ca. -75°C erreicht werden. Für tiefere Tem­ peraturen ist Toluol jedoch als Wärmeträger ungeeignet.In low-temperature technology, heat transfer pump circuits are known to e.g. B. a reactor for chemical reactions at low temperatures or a Cool sample holder for analytical purposes. This is what is to be cooled Object the heat extracted through a cooling circuit, which is a plate heat contains exchanger that is cooled using liquid nitrogen. The coolant or the heat transfer medium is circulated. Through control measures care is taken to avoid freezing of the heat exchanger. When Heat transfer medium is often used in low-temperature cooling circuits. This allows flow temperatures of approx. -75 ° C to be reached. For lower temperatures temperatures, however, toluene is unsuitable as a heat transfer medium.

Überraschenderweise wurde gefunden, daß Methylcyclopentan als Wärmeträger in einem Temperaturbereich von +70° bis -130°C hervorragend geeignet ist. Insbesondere im Tieftemperatur-Bereich von -90°C bis -130°C zeigt Methyl­ cyclopentan überlegene Eigenschaften. Es hat sich herausgestellt, daß bei diesem Medium die Viskosität bei tiefen Temperaturen nur geringfügig zunimmt. In einem Kühlkreislauf zur Kühlung eines chemischen Reaktors konnte eine Vorlauftemperatur bis fast -130°c erreicht werden. Mit einer eingeregelten Arbeitstemperatur von -125°C im Vorlauf ließen sich ohne weiteres Reaktorinnen­ temperaturen bis -106°C einstellen. Die geringe Viskosität von Methylcyclopentan ermöglicht dabei einen optimalen Fluß des Wärmeträgers bei hohen Wärmeübertragungsraten, erheblich kürzeren Abkühlzeiten und sehr guten Kühlleistungen im gesamten Arbeitstemperaturbereich. Außerdem besteht kein Risiko mehr, daß der Wärmetauscher zufriert. Die besonderen Vorzüge von Methylcyclopentan kommen zwar überwiegend im Tieftemperaturbereich zum Tragen; es kann aber auch ohne weiteres bis zu Temperaturen von +70°C als Wärmeträger eingesetzt werden. Dieser breite Temperaturbereich ist von Vorteil, wenn Untersuchungen in entsprechend weiten Temperaturbereichen durchgeführt werden oder wenn solche Temperaturbereiche bei chemischen Reaktionen durchlaufen werden. Der Vorteil von Methylcyclopentan liegt dann darin, daß man mit einem einzigen Wärmeträger auskommt und nicht verschiedene Wärmeträger für die einzelnen Temperaturbereiche vorsehen muß.Surprisingly, it was found that methylcyclopentane as a heat carrier in a temperature range of + 70 ° to -130 ° C is ideal. Methyl shows especially in the low temperature range from -90 ° C to -130 ° C Cyclopentane superior properties. It has been found that this Medium the viscosity increases only slightly at low temperatures. In one Cooling circuit for cooling a chemical reactor could Flow temperature up to almost -130 ° C can be reached. With a regulated Working temperature of -125 ° C in the flow could be done without further reactors  set temperatures down to -106 ° C. The low viscosity of methylcyclopentane enables an optimal flow of the heat transfer medium at high Heat transfer rates, significantly shorter cooling times and very good Cooling capacities in the entire working temperature range. Besides, there is none Risk more that the heat exchanger freezes. The special advantages of Methylcyclopentane are mainly used in the low temperature range Wear; but it can also be used up to temperatures of + 70 ° C Heat carriers are used. This wide temperature range is beneficial if investigations are carried out in correspondingly wide temperature ranges or if such temperature ranges in chemical reactions be run through. The advantage of methylcyclopentane is that: manages with a single heat transfer medium and not different heat transfer media must provide for the individual temperature ranges.

Ein weiterer Vorteil in der Verwendung von Methylcyclopentan besteht darin, daß Methylcyclopentan als biologisch abbaubarer, flüssiger Kohlenwasserstoff gegenüber Fluorchlorkohlenwasserstoffen als Wärmeträger erheblich günstiger zu bewerten ist.Another advantage of using methylcyclopentane is that Methylcyclopentane as a biodegradable, liquid hydrocarbon compared to chlorofluorocarbons as a heat transfer medium significantly cheaper evaluate.
