Definitions

  • the invention relates to a built-in element for installation in one of a fluid permeable cavity, for example for installation in a trickle cooler, like cooling tower or the like.
  • trickle coolers Built-in elements for trickle coolers are known in various configurations. Decisive for such installation elements, for example, on the one hand a certain turbulence and guidance of the cooling medium, for example air, and on the other hand, a relatively long residence time and surface to be cooled Fluids, such as water.
  • An example of a trickle cooler is the cooling tower of a power plant.
  • Corrugated as mounting elements Plastic film packages or packages of corrugated plastic lattice mats used, through the fluid to be cooled sprayed into the top of the cooling tower, namely water, drop-shaped down passes through and on the films or lattice bars flows along its surface and increases in size Contact with the resulting due to the chimney effect cooling air flow passes and cooled.
  • the invention is based on the object, an alternative installation element for to create a fluid-permeable cavity through which an improved efficiency with relatively low material usage is distinguished.
  • the built-in element according to the invention has a plurality of adjacent molded Plastic mats, which have a lattice structure and with several are provided adjacent half tube sections.
  • Everyone Half-tube section has transverse to its longitudinal extension Struts with these projecting in the longitudinal direction of the half tube sections Spigot with in turn protruding from these projections.
  • the half-tube sections two adjacent plastic mats form depending on the relative position These two plastic mats are individual tubes, in a sense serve the air duct. About the branched bracing it comes to a Distribution of the fluid to be cooled and the drain on the mounting element to a continuous division of individual larger drops in smaller drops.
  • Struts By extending in the longitudinal direction of the half-tube sections Struts give the installation element the necessary stability.
  • plastic mat package plastic mat package
  • the plastic mats of a built-in element are by extending transversely to the longitudinal extent of the tube sections rods held together, making the entire package more stability receives.
  • juxtaposed plastic mats with each other non-positive (positive, cohesive or frictional) be connected to each other.
  • pin-hole fasteners, cold-formed or latching interlocking fasteners or welding or gluing be connected to each other.
  • any plastic mat several successive in the longitudinal extension of the half tube sections and transverse staggered half tube sections.
  • the offset is about half the width of the half tube sections.
  • the staggered half tube sections are located thus in about "gap" to each other.
  • each longitudinally to each other are the following and laterally offset half tube sections suitably different lengths. This makes it possible by relative Twisting by 180 ° adjacent plastic mats this under overlap their respective half-tube sections to connect together.
  • a plastic mat instead of a strut or grid structure to the upper or underside of the plastic mat are closed. This is done by the closure of struts enclosed areas of the plastic mat, preferably within the transition sections between each other following and laterally staggered half tube sections are arranged. This leads to a partially forced leadership the air flow through the mounting elements. This partial obsession affects, as has been found by experiments, beneficial to the efficiency of the installation element.
  • the half-tube sections of the plastic mats of the installation element according to the invention can in principle have any possible cross-sectional shape.
  • Halved tube sections with a semicircular shape, triangular, are preferably used or polygonal shape.
  • FIG. 2 A perspective view of a built-in element 10 according to the invention, that of several juxtaposed molded plastic mats 12 with several juxtaposed and offset laterally Half tube sections 14,16 and 18 and with several end quarter-tube sections 20 and 22 is constructed as shown in FIG. 2, is shown in Fig. 1.
  • Adjacent plastic mats provided with grid or strut structures 12 are each arranged against each other, so that the mounting element 10 several rows of juxtaposed and staggered along its extension Tubes 24 has.
  • the plastic mats 12 are mutually by (Pull) rods 25 connected, which is indicated in Fig. 1.
  • Each plastic mat 12 has between adjacent half tube sections extending longitudinal struts 26,28 and 30 and at the longitudinal edges extending edge struts 32. Adjacent longitudinal struts are interconnected interconnected by arcuate transverse struts 34. From These cross struts 34 protrude in the longitudinal direction of the half tube sections pin From 36, in turn, provided with protruding projections 38 are.
  • the areas between the arcuate transverse webs On the other hand, 34 are basically open. But here it is in principle conceivable, if some of these areas are closed. It is also possible in that the pins 36 branching off from arcuate transverse struts 34 on both sides of the transverse struts 34 and relative to adjacent cross struts against each other are directed and may also mesh with each other. It is useful if the pin 36 as shown in Fig. 2, adjacent arcuate transverse struts 34 do not interconnect. However, it is possible that connecting struts between adjacent arcuate Cross struts 34 are present. Furthermore, the end half-tube sections 14 a greater axial extent than the opposite end-side Half tube sections 18 on. This applies in a similar way for the end quarter-tube sections 20 and 22.
  • FIG. 2 and 3 show two alternative ways of composition adjacent lattice mats 12. While in the situation shown in FIG. 3, the transition regions 40 of the adjacent Plastic mats 12 are opposite each other, these transition areas 40 in the assembly situation according to FIG. 4 in the axial direction of the Half and quarter tube sections offset from each other.
