Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to heat exchangers and to methods of heat exchanger construction.
- Heat transfer is an important part of any process.
- an indirect transfer of heat from one medium to another is usually accomplished by the use of heat exchangers of which there are many types.
- heat exchangers of which there are many types.
- the art of heat exchanger design is developed to a very high degree.
- there is still room for improvement in a number of areas such as reducing pressure drop, increasing overall heat transfer coefficients, reducing fouling, and in heat exchangers utilizing a tube bundle, such as the shell and tube heat exchangers, improving the tube support and ease of assembly.
- the tubes in a shell and tube heat exchanger prematurely fail because the tubes vibrate or rub against one another or other parts of the heat exchanger such as for example, a baffle or the shell.
- a baffle or the shell The art has heretofore recognized the need for tube support. Plate type baffles have been used in heat exchangers for many years. Such baffles provide support for the tubes at least to some degree.
- the double segmental plate-baffle heat exchanger is well known to those skilled in the art, and although heat exchangers using plate-type baffles were a relatively early development in heat exchanger design, such exchangers are still widely used today.
- the passages in the plate baffles through which the tubes pass are slightly larger in diameter than the outside diameter of the tubes in order to facilitate construction of the exchanger, and, as a result, vibration of the tubes can and does often occur, which frequently results in premature tube failure.
- the tubes and the rods are designed with slightly smaller dimensions to facilitate the complete assembly of the tube bundle, then the tubes will not be tight in the baffles and will be subject to vibration-induced wear during operation which can result in tube damage and premature failure of the heat exchanger.
- an improved heat exchanger structure is provided by utilizing at least one baffle support in the tube bundle intermediate the opposite ends of the tubes which permits loose passage of the tubes therethrough during assembly of the tube bundle and subsequently permits firm engagement of these tubes when the tubes are properly positioned.
- one aspect of the present invention provides method for assembling the tube bundle of a heat exchanger wherein at least one outer ring, carrying a first plurality of substantially parallel rods and a second plurality of substantially parallel rods inclined at an angle to the first plurality of rods, receives a plurality of tubes loosely therethrough in a first position of the rods and, in a second position of the rods, provides firm engagement of the tubes by the rods thereby providing simplified tube bundle construction and firm engagement of the tubes intermediate their opposite ends.
- novel apparatus for the tube bundle of a heat exchanger comprising a plurality of tubes with at least one outer ring encircling the tubes intermediate their ends.
- At least one of the outer rings carries a plurality of rods each having opposite ends and positioned in a space between adjacent tube rows, each rod having at least one first region of reduced thickness on the surface thereof for allowing movement of adjacent tubes therepast in a first position thereof and having at least one second region of increased thickness on the surface thereof adjacent the first region for firmly engaging adjacent tubes in a second position of the rod to prevent movement of the tubes.
- Means are also provided for securing each of the rods to the outer ring in its second position.
- An object of the present invention is to provide improved support for tubes of a tube bundle.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved method of assembly of the support rods in a tube bundle of a heat exchanger.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide improved reliability in a shell and tube heat exchanger.
- Still another object of the present invention is to facilitate the construction of heat exchangers.
- the heat exchanger 10 comprises a shell 12 and a tube bundle 14 positioned therein.
- the tube bundle 14 includes a pair of tube sheets 16 and 18 having apertures formed therein through which the opposite ends of a plurality of tubes 20 extend. ' The opposite ends of the tubes are secured to the respective tube sheets to provide support for the plurality of parallel aligned tubes 20.
- a pair of baffles 22 and a second pair of baffles 24 are positioned alternately along the longitudinal axes of the parallel tubes 20 in spaced relation and provide support for the tubes intermediate the tube sheets 16 and 18.
- baffles 22 and 24 are shown lying in a plane normal to the longitudinal axis of the tubes 20 of the tube bundle 14, it is possible to use baffles which are not in planes perpendicular or normal to the longitudinal axis of the tube bundle, however, baffles lying in perpendicular or normal planes as shown are more easily and economically constructed and are thus preferred.
- Nozzles 26 and 28 communicate with the respective opposite ends of the tube side of the heat exchanger 10 providing means for passing a first . fluid through the tubes.
- Nozzles 30 and 32 communicate with the respective ends of the shell side of the heat exchanger 10 and provide means for passing a second fluid over the outside surfaces of the tubes when preferably using countercurrent flow of the heat exchange fluids or mediums.
- the tubes 20 in the heat exchanger 10 are laid out in a square pitch, and generally a square pitch tube layout provides greater surface area for a given shell diameter for an apparatus constructed in accordance with the present invention.
- This layout of the tubes 20 is best illustrated in FIGS 2 and 3. It will be seen that the tubes 20 thus laid out form a plurality of vertically spaced horizontal tube rows and a plurality of horizontally spaced vertical tube rows.
- the baffles 22 illustrated in FIG. 2 comprise a baffle or supporting ring 34 encircling the tubes 20.
- a plurality of horizontally extending baffle rods or bars 36 are fixedly secured at their opposite ends in the supporting ring 34 and extend between alternate pairs of horizontal parallel tube rows.
- a plurality of vertically extending baffle rods or bars 38 are fixedly secured at their opposite ends in the supporting outer ring 34 and extend between alternate pairs of vertical parallel tube rows.
- the opposite ends of the rods 36 and 38 may be suitably secured to the outer ring 34 by welding as shown in either FIG. 11 or FIG. 12, or may be bolted thereto as illustrated in FIGS. 13 and 14.
- the construction of the baffle 24 is illustrated in FIG. 3.
- the baffle 24 comprises an outer supporting baffle ring 40 which encircles the tubes 20 in a manner similar to that described for the ring 34.
- a plurality of horizontally extending baffle rods or bars 42 are movably secured at their opposite ends in the outer ring 40 and extend between alternate pairs of horizontal parallel tube rows. It will be noted, however, that the tube rows between which the rods 42 extend are not the tube rows between which the rods 36 of the baffle 22 extend.
- the rods 42 are positioned between horizontal tube rows which are open or unbaffled in the baffle 22.
- the baffle 24 includes a plurality of vertically extending baffle rods or bars 44 movably secured at their opposite ends in the supporting outer ring 40 which rods extend between alternate pairs of vertical parallel tube rows.
- the rods 44 are not positioned between the same vertical tube rows through which the baffle rods 38 of the baffle 22 extend, but rather extend between adjacent vertical tube rove which are open in the baffle 22.
- the rods 36 and 38 of the baffles 22 are of such thickness or diameter as to be closely received between the tubes of the adjacent horizontal and vertical tube rows, respectively. As best shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the opposite ends of the rods 42 and 44 are slidably received within corresponding apertures 46 and 48 extending through the outer ring 40.
- Each of the rods 42 and 44 includes a plurality of first regions of reduced thickness 50 spaced along the length of the respective rod in correspondence to the center to center distance between the tubes 20 of adjacent tube rove.
- the regions of reduced thickness 50 may be circular in cross-section as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 and as further illustrated in FIG. 10, or otherwise shaped.
- Each region of reduced thickness 50 is preferably approximately 1/16-inch (1.5875 mm) less in thickness than the space between adjacent tubes in the tube row separated by the baffle rod.
- the baffle rods 42 and 44 further include second regions of increased thickness 52 disposed adjacent the first regions of reduced thickness 50. These regions of increased thickness 52 may be of either circular or rectangular cross-section. The thickness of the second regions of increased thickness 52 are preferably slightly greater than the nominal distance between adjacent tubes of the tube rows separated by the respective baffle rods.
- FIG. 10 illustrates an enlarged portion of a baffle rod or bar 42 illustrating the region of reduced thickness 50 and the region of increased thickness 52 thereon.
- the rod illustrated in FIG. 10 is preferably circular in . cross-section throughout its entire length.
- the first region of reduced thickness 50 is arcuately shaped along the longitudinal axis of the rod, and conforms generally to the configuration of the outer surface of the tubes 20. It will be noted that the arcuate shape of the region of reduced thickness 50 provides a third transitional region 54 formed on the surface of the rod extending between the first and second regions 50 and 52 and increasing in circular cross-sectional area between the first and second regions.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 illustrate a slightly modified version of the rod or bar of FIG. 10 which will be designated by the reference character 42a.
- the first regions of reduced thickness 50 and the second regions of increased thickness 52 are of circular cross-section as in the rod 42.
- the third transitional region 54a interconnecting each of the first and second regions 50 and 52 provides a frusto-conically shaped surface on the rod 42a increasing in circular cross-section from each first region 50 to each corresponding second region 52. This configuration of the third transitional region 54a provides a more gradual transition between each region of reduced thickness and the corresponding region of increased thickness.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrate a third form of baffle rod or bar of substantially rectangular cross-section which is designated by the reference character 42b.
- the first regions of reduced thickness of the rod 42b are designated by the reference character 50b, and the second regions of increased thickness are designated by the reference character 52b.
- Each region of reduced thickness 50b is connected to a corresponding region of increased thickness 52b by a third transitional region 54b formed on the surface of the rod of increasing rectangular cross-sectional area from the region of reduced thickness to the region of increased thickness.
- FIGS. 13 and 14 illustrate the connections of the baffle rod or bar 42b and a similarly constructed vertical baffle rod or bar 44b to a modified outer supporting ring designated by the reference character 40b.
- the outer ring 40b comprises a central ring member 56 and a pair of external ring members -58 and 60 which cooperate with threaded bolts 62 to fixedly secure the outer ends of the rods 42b and 44b to the outer ring 40b.
- rods 36, 38, 42 and 44 can be constructed of round or square tubing material and the regions of reduced thickness 50 between the regions of increased thickness 52 can be advantageously and economically formed by stamping whereby the regions of reduced thickness
- FIG. 12 illustrates a modified connection between a baffle rod 44 and the outer ring 40 in which a transverse groove 76 is formed in the outer periphery 72 of the ring 40 intersecting each aperture 46 and 48 in which a suitable weld fillet 78 can be formed to fixedly secure the rod to the outer ring.
- the outer end of the rod 74 is again cut off and contoured to match the outer periphery 72 of the outer ring 40 by suitable means such as grinding.
- the tube bundle 14 thus assembled is inserted into the open end of the shell 12 and properly positioned therein at which time the open ends of the shell 12 are closed by suitable end caps 80 and 82.
- baffles two having fixed baffle rods and two having movable baffle rods, have been described above, it will be readily apparent to are substantially flat at their midpoints between adjacent regions of increased thickness. Such flat regions of reduced thickness are preferably oriented with the major axis thereof in alignment with the longitudinal axes of the tubes to thereby present a minimum cross-sectional area to the flow of fluid around the baffle rods and reduce the pressure drop of the flowing fluid across the rods.
- the tubes 20 are inserted through the baffles 22 and 24 which are spaced apart as illustrated in FIG. 1.
- the rods 42 and 44 of the baffles 24 are movably supported by the respective supporting rings 40 in the position illustrated in FIG. 4 thereby permitting the free passage of the tubes 20 through the baffles 22 and 24.
- the ends of the tubes 20 are then received through the corresponding apertures 64 formed in the tube sheets 16 and 18.
- the tubes 20 are fixedly secured to the tube sheets 16 and 18 with the end of each tube forming a fluid tight seal with the corresponding aperture in the tube sheet.
- the rods 42 and 44 of the baffles 24 are then driven or otherwise moved from their first positions as illustrated- in FIG. 4 to their second positions as illustrated in FIG. 5, the dashed lines in FIG. 5 illustrating the previous positions for the rods 42 and 44.
- each aperture 46 and 48 preferably includes a beveled portion 70 communicating with, the outer periphery of the supporting ring 40 in which a weld fillet 66 can be formed.
- each rod is then cut off and contoured to conform to the outer periphery 72 of the outer ring 40 by suitable means such as grinding as shown at 74.
- suitable means such as grinding as shown at 74.
- various numbers of both fixed rod and movable rod baffles may be employed in the construction of a heat exchanger in accordance with the present invention depending upon various design constraints.
- a square pitch tube layout is described above, other tube layouts may be employed in a heat exchanger constructed in accordance with the present invention. It will be noted, however, that the square pitch tube layout disclosed herein when employed with the baffle structures also disclosed herein provides full radial support for the intermediate portions of the tubes of the heat exchanger.
