Definitions

  • the invention relates to a ply of tubes for heat exchange of the kind that include tubes having parallel branches whose axes are located substantially in one and the same plane, these axes being generally arranged vertically when the ply is installed in working position, the branches being connected to each other at their ends by transverse parts, in particular curved parts, the tubes being surrounded by a protective coating of refractory material, in particular refractory concrete.
  • the heat exchange is intended to occur between a first fluid circulating inside the tubes, and a second fluid circulating outside the tubes.
  • the first fluid is a cold fluid to be heated, and is constituted by a liquid
  • the second fluid is a hot fluid constituted in particular by combustion gases.
  • the invention relates more particularly, because it is in this case that its application is of most interest but not exclusively, such a sheet of tubes for boiler superheater.
  • the liquid circulating inside the tubes is water, intended to be heated by the combustion gases or fumes circulating outside the sheet.
  • the protective coating is necessary to protect the tubes against corrosion of the fumes, since the combustion gases can be chlorinated, sulphurized, or other, especially when they come from incinerators. In addition, it is necessary to protect the tubes against abrasion of fuel dust, an abrasion which is all the more sensitive as the temperature is higher and the particles move with a greater relative speed relative to the layers of tubes.
  • the object of the invention is, above all, to provide a sheet of tubes for heat exchange which no longer has or to a lesser degree the drawback mentioned above, while remaining of a relatively simple and economical construction.
  • a sheet of heat exchange tubes is characterized in that it comprises, on each side, means for holding the protective coating, extending in a plane parallel to the sheet. exchanger, and that connecting means are provided between the holding means located on each side of the ply, the aforesaid connecting means passing through the exchanger ply between adjacent tube branches.
  • these connecting means between the holding means extend perpendicular to the plane of the sheet.
  • Said holding means comprise transverse blades pressing against the ply, parallel to the mean plane of the ply, these blades having a longitudinal direction extending perpendicular to the direction of the axes of the tubes.
  • the holding means comprise, on each side of the ply, a honeycomb structure fixed to the transverse blades and whose mean plane is parallel to that of the ply, this structure being suitable for receiving the coating of protective material; said honeycomb structure has cells formed by identical regular polygons, in particular hexagons.
  • the connecting means comprise spacer combs arranged between two adjacent tube branches, and extending in the longitudinal direction of the branches, these combs comprising hooking means extending transversely to their longitudinal edges suitable for cooperating with the means of support.
  • the spacer combs may have, on their longitudinal edges, projecting tongues intended to cooperate with corresponding openings provided on the transverse blades, these tongues being distributed in such a way that an isolated tongue is followed by a pair of close tongues l one of the other.
  • the means for holding the covering as well as the connecting means are arranged opposite the tubes of the sheet, so that these tubes can expand independently of the protective covering, the weight of which as well as that of the holding means and connection is supported by the lower transverse parts, in particular loops, connecting the branches of the tubes.
  • Intermediate retaining means in particular constituted by bars fixed to the tubes of the heat exchanger ply, may be provided to cooperate with the lower end of partial combs extending over only a fraction of the length of a tube branch, so that the weight of the protective coating is supported in at least one zone of the tube branch other than its lower end.
  • the means for holding the protective covering comprise at the ends of the ply, both at the lateral and vertical ends, an articulated structure, making it possible to produce a relatively reduced radius of curvature, in particular a "Flexmetal" structure, connected to the means of lateral support.
  • Figure 1 of these drawings is a schematic view of a sheet of tubes for boiler superheater, before coating these tubes with a protective coating of refractory material.
  • Figure 2 is a simplified perspective view of a section of the tubes of the sheet during the establishment of the means for holding the protective covering and connecting means between the holding means, the sheet being placed horizontally.

  • FIG. 7, finally, is a plan view of two partial spacer combs, extending over a fraction of the length of a branch of a tube.
  • tubes t1, t2, t3, t4 intended for a boiler, to allow a heat exchange between a liquid, generally water, circulating inside. tubes and a hot fluid, usually gases, flowing outside the tubes.
  • the sheet N is intended more particularly to constitute a superheater element arranged vertically in a boiler; the hot burned gases arrive from the bottom and escape upwards while the water to be heated circulates inside the tubes, for example in the direction of the arrows shown in FIG. 1.
  • the burnt gases are at around 650/700 ° C at the bottom of the sheet and at around 450/500 ° C at the top of the sheet.

It should be noted that the tube t1 of the first element is bent, in the lower part, with a very small radius of curvature so that the forward branch and the return branch of this tube are practically adjacent. The radius of curvature of the ends of the other tubes which envelop the first element gradually increases.
  • the sheet of tubes N comprises in the upper part an inlet area E located at the top left and an outlet area S located at the top right. It is clear that, as required, one can reverse the inlet and the outlet and adopt a reverse circulation direction to that shown for the liquid in the tubes.
  • the tubes are interconnected two by two.
  • the tubes t1 and t2 have a common input e1 and a common output s1
  • the tubes t3 and t4 have a common input e3 and a common output s3.
  • These inputs e1, e3 and outputs s1, s3 are themselves connected to a collector corresponding to E and S. It is clear that other possibilities of association of the tubes exist. For example, the four tubes could be connected together at the inlet and at the outlet.
  • the branches such as 1, 2, 3, 4, of the tubes have their parallel axes and located in the same plane. These branches can be mechanically connected to each other using small steel elements such as 5, diagrammatically shown, welded to the outer wall of the tubes.

  • the housings 10 are open on their two faces parallel to said ply N.
  • the housings 10 have a regular hexagonal outline and the structure A is constituted by a layer of a material known under the commercial name of "Hexmetal". If we denote by p the pitch of the alveolar structure (see Figure 3), p being equal to the distance between the centers of two adjacent polygons, we choose the distance D, defined above, equal to 1.5p.
  • the honeycomb structure A is welded in zones such as 11 on the transverse blades 5.
  • the connecting means L between the holding means M1, M2, extend perpendicular to the mean plane P of the sheet, and include spacer combs 12 (see FIG. 6) constituted by rectangular dishes placed between two branches such as 1, 2 adjacent tubes.

  • holding means M1, M2 and connecting means L is as follows.
  • a spacer comb 12 Between two branches of adjacent tubes such as 1, 2 of the tablecloth, a spacer comb 12. It should be noted that these branches 1, 2 must be spaced apart by a sufficient space, for example 3 mm to allow the insertion of the comb 12 perpendicular to the mean plane P.
  • the combs 12 rest on jigs (not shown) arranged below the horizontal sheet N.
  • the transverse blades 5 are put in place, as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the tongues 13, and 14, 15 of the various combs are engaged in the openings 6, 7 and 8 of the blades 5 respective.
  • the tongues are folded back to ensure the connection between the combs 12 and the blades 5; for certain tube areas, it may be more practical to ensure the connection by welding.
  • the honeycomb structure A is put in place on the blades 5 by introducing, between the tongues 14, 15 suitably folded and sufficiently spaced apart by construction, a partitioning of the structure A.

  • bars such as 21, of reduced length are arranged on the outer cylindrical surface of the branch 1, fixed by welding to the outer surface of the branch 1.
  • the branch 1 is represented horizontal, but it should be understood that, when the sheet is installed in the boiler, the branch 1 is vertical and, with it, the bar 21, the axis is parallel to that of branch 1. Under these conditions, if the partial comb 112 located to the left of the bar 21 in FIG. 7, becomes the upper partial comb when the branch 1 is placed in the vertical position, the lower edge 22 of this partial comb 112 will come to bear against the adjacent end of the bar 21.

  • a sheet of tubes, for heat exchange, provided with a protective coating produced in accordance with the invention has a considerably increased service life which largely counterbalances the slight increase in cost of protecting the sheet.
