Definitions
- the present invention relates to a heat exchanger.
- a heat exchanger is used to transmit heat from one body to another via one or more surfaces, metallic or not, separating the two bodies present simultaneously in the exchanger. These surfaces allowing heat exchange, in particular, can form one or more enclosures in which the body to be heated is located.
- the two bodies in thermal contact may or may not be fluids which may or may not undergo a change of state.
- the hot body can be a pure body or a eutectic mixture in liquid form which solidifies on contact with the cold body by releasing stored heat in the form of latent heat. As a result of this heat exchange, the cold body or heat transfer fluid may undergo vaporization.
- the present invention applies to this type of exchanger whose hot body is an autonomous source of heat.
- These heat exchangers can be used for air conditioning, underwater air conditioning, solar storage, heat recovery.
- the heat exchanger as described above has some drawbacks in the case where the hot body is a material undergoing solidification during the heat exchange and the cold body a fluid undergoing vaporization.
- the enclosure or enclosures immersed in the heat sink material are supplied by a fraction of the flow of sea water, heat transfer fluid, intended for heating a diving suit.
- the steam that comes out of it condenses in a mixer, irregularly. This results in significant oscillations in the flow of the heat transfer fluid and in the temperature.
- This particular application does not make it possible to envisage conventional methods for regulating the temperature and the flow rate of the heat-transfer fluid since the weight and size of the heat exchanger are limited.
- the subject of the present invention is a heat exchanger which overcomes these drawbacks and in particular makes it possible to regulate the flow rate and the temperature of the heat transfer fluid by simple means of implementation.
- This heat exchanger comprising a first enclosure within which a heat transfer material is placed, in thermal contact with at least a second enclosure at the top of which a cold heat transfer fluid arrives in the liquid state and at least one pipe placed in the second enclosure, through which the fluid leaves in the form of vapor or liquid-vapor mixture, is characterized in that the second enclosure has a lining making it possible to regulate the flow of the fluid to the bottom of the second enclosure, and the partial transformation of said vapor fluid being able to escape through the pipe pierced for this purpose with holes over its entire height.
- the lining of the second enclosure is formed of ceramic rings, stacked in bulk on top of each other and in direct contact with said enclosure.
- the lining of the second enclosure is formed of metal plates, compatible with the heat transfer fluid, perforated, regularly spaced from one another, and integral with the pipe.
- This autonomous heat exchanger can be used in any position, which implies a certain fixity of the lining: complete filling of the second enclosure using ceramic rings, or welding of the perforated plates to the pipe.
- the storage of calories is carried out using a molten salt with high latent heat of fusion, stored in the first enclosure.
- the molten salt is a material with high latent heat of fusion, chosen from fluorides, chlorides and hydroxides of alkali and alkaline earth metals and eutectic mixtures of these materials.
- the lining according to the invention is produced using perforated metal plates or ceramic rings, the regular formation of vapor instead of large bubbles of vapor is greatly facilitated.
- the formation of this vapor allows better and rapid stabilization (approximately a few seconds instead of several minutes) of the temperature and of the flow of the heat-transfer fluid.
- the surface in contact with the heat transfer fluid is large enough to trap the deposits transported by this fluid.
- the heat transfer fluid used is sea water, which causes rapid scaling of the various parts constituting the heat exchanger. Consequently, the heat exchanger must be easily removable for complete cleaning, which is the case here.
- FIG. 1 shows a heat exchanger.
- the heat transfer fluid before entering the heat exchanger arrives via a pipe 1 at a three-way valve 2.
- This valve 2 is connected to a temperature measurement probe 3 making it possible to regulate the proportion of fluid to be heated and of cold fluid over time.
- the part of the fluid to be heated enters one of the chambers forming the heat exchanger.
- This enclosure can be central 4 and / or lateral 4a. This or these enclosures are in direct contact with the heat-storage material 5 placed in another enclosure 6.
- the enclosure (s) 4 and 4a respectively contain a pipe 7 and 7a allowing the evacuation of the vapor formed.
- This vapor is directed to a three-way mixer 8 where the proportion of the unheated heat transfer fluid also arrives.
- the outgoing heat transfer fluid arrives in a buffer capacity 9 allowing the flow rate of the directly usable heat transfer fluid to be regulated.
- FIG. 2 represents, in a first embodiment, an enclosure 4 of the heat exchanger in which the fluid to be heated circulates.
- This enclosure comprises a pipe 1 allowing the fluid to enter this enclosure and a lining which, in this first embodiment, is formed of perforated metal plates 11, welded to a pipe 7 pierced with small holes 10 over its entire height, lining facilitating the transformation of the fluid into vapor which can escape through the holes 10 of the pipe 7.
- This enclosure is, in addition, in direct contact with the heat-storage material 5.
- FIG. 3 represents, in a second embodiment, the same enclosure 4 of the heat exchanger.
- the common parts in Figure 2 keeping the same reference numbers, will not be the subject of a second description.
- the lining is formed of small ceramic rings 11a, stacked in bulk on top of each other, rings of which a more detailed example has been drawn to better see the shape.
- the cold heat transfer fluid arrives via line 1 in the thermostatically controlled three-way valve 2. Only part of the fluid is heated in the heat exchanger while the other part is directed to the mixer 8.
- the cold fluid arrives at the top of or chambers 4 and 4a, in thermal contact with chamber 6 containing the hot molten salt.
- part of the fluid On contact with this heat source, part of the fluid is transformed into vapor by means of the aforementioned packing. This vapor then escapes through the pipe 7 pierced for this purpose with diametrically opposite holes.
- the part of the non-vaporized fluid can flow easily thanks to the packing to the bottom of the pipe, until it in turn vaporizes and escapes through said pipe.
- the fluid thus heated arrives in the mixer 8, then in the buffer capacity 9 making it possible to regulate the flow rate of the heat transfer fluid.
- the heat exchanger according to the invention thanks to its lining formed by small metal surfaces or not, allows rapid stabilization of the temperature and of the flow of the heat-transfer fluid.
- the thermostatically controlled valve 2 makes it possible to regulate the proportion of hot fluid and cold fluid, therefore the water flow rate to be used to obtain a constant temperature from the start to the end of the manipulation.
- tests have been carried out with cold water as coolant and as heat sink material with an eutectic mixture of fluoride and lithium hydroxide, melting at 450 ° C.
