Definitions
- the invention relates to a sea chest cooler on ships and offshore platforms, where by an integrated anti-fouling system barnacles, shells and other fouling organisms are killed as a result of regularly repeatable overheating.
- the device for carrying out the method is that individual sea boxes of a seawater system and connecting them Pipelines and ducts as well as the components installed in the seawater system, such as sea chest coolers, pumps and fittings form separate subsystems, so that a short-term and locally limited, regular overheating of the enclosed seawater takes place and thus the entire seawater system is partially protected from fouling.
- the subsystems are divided into an active and passive subsystem. In the sea operation, the blind is open in the active sea chest and the shut-off valve is closed and the passive subsystem is in cleaning mode with blind closed so that the components in the passive sea box are locally limited, short-term and regularly repeatable overheated.
- Outlet funnels in different chambers of the radiator cap must be mechanically interconnected so that the inlet funnel can be positioned above the inlet and the outlet funnel over the outlet of the same Einzelebenübertragers to dissolve out of the cooling circuit and thus protect in a separate heating circuit against fouling.
- the technical effort for the mechanical coupling of the two funnels together seems very complicated and prone to failure.
- the device for heating described in DE-PS 102005029988 B3 uses a separate electric heater, which leads to an additional energy requirement of up to an estimated 60KW and thus should be avoided for reasons of sustainability and environmental protection.
- the object of the invention is to design a sea chest cooler against fouling by microorganisms, such as barnacles, shells, algae, etc already in its construction so that the simplest possible device the sea chest cooler by continuous overheating a defined number of rows of tubes fully automatically both in the actual Can protect cooling mode as well as at a standstill. This should be done without a system separation.
- the necessary heating energy should be decoupled energetically efficient, for example, from the hot high-temperature circuit of main engine or auxiliary diesel.
- TAS following - is due to the new design of the tube bundle a almost circular or square arrangement of the heat exchanger tubes 20 special sections created that allow individual circular segments of the tube bundle of the sea chest cooler by a mechanical TAS device during or outside the cooling operation to apply hot water.
- This TAS device consists, for example, of a nozzle 1 which rotates in angular increments, following the circular arrangement of the heat exchanger tubes 20 in the tube plate 14, so that in the respective section the fouling organisms due to regular impingement of individual heat exchanger tubes 20 or sections of the sea chest cooler by means of heated water on the tube outer wall and / or killed in the vicinity of the tube bundle.
- the cooling area of the sea chest cooler may be increased accordingly in order to be able to dissipate the additional heat introduced into the system, preferably from the hot engine cooling water circuit (ME-HAT).
- ME-HAT hot engine cooling water circuit
- the advantages of the invention are that the anti-fouling of the sea chest cooler with the integrated TAS in the ongoing sea operation and without the box cooler to take out of service is possible.
- anti-fouling in harbor operation can also be carried out via a separate pre-heater in the TAS circuit, such as the auxiliary or over-production condenser.
- Another positive side effect is that it can be preheated via the low-temperature circuit ME-LT in port operation, thus keeping the main engine ready for use at all times. This can be dispensed with the traditional preheating unit which saves ongoing energy costs and acquisition costs.
- FIG. 1a Seekastenkühler with TAS device 13 for anti-fouling
- Fig.1b view of tube sheet 14 with circle segments 15th
- Fig.5 illustration of the travel of the TAS nozzle 1 in TAS mode
- Fig.6 Flow chart of a sea chest cooler with integrated TAS
- FIG 1a shows the sea chest cooler 16 with its main components such as tube bundle 9, cover 12 and the integrated TAS device 13.
- the engine cooling water enters through the inlet port 2 in the space of the sea chest cooler 16, which is formed by cover 12 and tube sheet 14.
- Figure 1 b and Figure 1c show the structural design of the tube sheet 14 with the circular arrangement of the U-tubes and the middle tube bottom portion of the nozzle chamber 21 (of Figure 1a), to which the TAS nozzle 1 (from Figure 1a) via The TAS device 13 (from FIG. 1 a) works in a targeted manner in order to protect the heat exchanger tubes 20 (from FIG. 1 a) against fouling.
- the heated water flows via the TAS
- FIGS 3 and 4 are sectional views through the lid 12 and show the TAS nozzle 1 in lowered and raised position.
- the integrated TAS device 13 with the lifting unit 4 shown in Figure 2), which presses on the shaft of the rotary union 6, provides for lifting the TAS nozzle 1, the TAS nozzle 1 in the lifted position during the Continuing to hold in the next position, then the TAS nozzle 1 lowers after reaching the next position and the pressing of the TAS nozzle 1 secured to the tube sheet 14 to heat the next circle segment of heat exchanger tubes 20.
- the rotary drive 5 transmits the torque according to the execution by a belt 7 on the shaft of the rotary feedthrough. 6
- FIG. 5 shows the circular arrangement of the heat exchanger tubes 20.
- the TAS nozzle 1 rotates in angular steps, following the circular arrangement of the heat exchanger tubes 20 in the tube sheet 14 and thus creates special sections, which thereby separates them from the actual cooling water.
- the TAS nozzle 1 acts on the sealed-off circular segment of the tube bundle 9 of individual heat exchanger tubes 20 with hot water.
- a separate TAS device 13 is installed in each but at least in each second nozzle chamber 21.
- the TAS nozzle 1 can be made both radially, as shown in Figure 5, as well as over the entire diameter or in a kind of circular segmental shape.
- FIG. 6 shows the basic arrangement of the components in FIG.
