Definitions

  • This invention relates to heat exchangers and more particularly to electro-chemical protecting and/or cleaning of surfaces of heat exchangers.
  • Heat exchangers are used in various industries for cooling hot liquids and other fluids and also for heating cold fluids.
  • the most common types of heat exchangers are plate heat exchangers and shell and tube heat exchangers.
  • a typical plate heat exchanger a plurality of parallel metal heat transfer or exchange plates are arranged such that they form alternate cold chambers and hot chambers.
  • a heat exchanger is divided into two flow circuits or channels so that one of the circuits is connected to the hot chambers and another to the cold chambers. Heat from the hotter chamber will become transferred through the transfer plate to the colder chamber, and thus the temperature of the fluid to be processed can be controlled in a desired manner.
  • a problem with heat exchangers is corrosion. Corrosion may be caused by the corrosive nature of the fluids to be processed, for example because aggressive acids such as sulphuric acids are processed. Build up of deposits, commonly known as fouling, on the surfaces may also lead into corrosion. Chemical deposits are often referred to as scale, whereas primarily organic deposits cause biofouling. Deposits building up on the surfaces of the heat exchanger can also decrease the efficiency thereof, and may even cause blockages.
  • Fouling can substantially reduce the capability of the heat transfer elements to transfer heat and increase the amount of energy required for heating or cooling.
  • One way of preventing fouling is to increase and maximize the flow through the heat exchanger. However, this can increase the power requirement of the pumps of the system. Fouling can cause a pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the heat exchanger that may not be on acceptable levels. Use of larger channels and conduits does not prevent fouling either, and may not be desirable because of the less efficient heat transfer capability. Because of the fouling heat exchangers need to be regularly taken out of service and washed. However, this disturbs the production and is costly.
  • Electrode current has been used to protect metallic parts of a heat exchanger. Electric current has also been used for cleaning surfaces and for preventing fouling of surfaces. Such methods, know also by the name electrochemical protection, are well know as such.
  • the electrochemical protection method can be cathodic or anodic, or a combination of these.
  • An example of known electrochemical protection methods can be found from US Patent 4,586,562 disclosing a plate heat exchanger assembly that is provided with an anodic protection system such that some of the heat exchanger plates mounted to the frame are connected to positive current and some of the plates are connected to negative current.
  • the plates are insulated from each other to provide electrolytic chamber means for selectively applying a voltage across the adjacent plates.
  • the arrangement does not necessarily enable application of optimal potential in the plates.
  • Embodiments of the invention aim to address one or several of the above issues and to provide an apparatus and method by means of efficiency of a heat exchanger can be improved.
  • FIG. 1 showing a cross sectional view from the side of a plate heat exchanger 20.
  • the heat exchanger body comprises a shell provided by end plates 7 and side walls 5 between the end plates.
  • the body of the heat exchanger can be manufactured by any appropriate technique, including welding, bolting, pressing, casting, moulding and so forth.
  • Within the shell are provided heat transfer plates 6 as described in more detail below.
  • a primary flow channel 2 is provided between an inlet 11 and an outlet 12.
  • the primary flow channel is for the flow of the fluid to be processed, i.e. heated or cooled.
  • the primary flow will first enter an inlet channel 2, then be passed into contact with the heat transfer plates 6, collected at an outlet channel 4 and let out from the outlet 12.
  • the secondary flow channel is provided between inlet 13 and outlet 14.
  • the secondary flow channel is for the flow of the treating fluid, i.e. either heating or cooling fluid.
  • the secondary flow is guided into spaces 36 between the heat transfer elements 6 such that the fluid evenly contacts the secondary sides of the heat transfer plates.
  • FIG. 1 shows further an electrode element 3 placed between two heat transfer plates 6 of the heat exchanger.
  • a system 30 for controlling the operation and for providing current for the electrode element is also shown.
  • the electrode element can be provided by means of an electrode plate.
  • the shape and size of the periphery thereof can substantially resemble the shape and size of the adjacent heat transfer plates. Because the electrode element is positioned between the heat transfer elements, a similar polarization can be applied to each adjacent element. Regardless of whether the electrode element is driven into anodic or cathodic mode, each of the heat transfer elements can be subjected to same polarization in uniform manner.
  • FIG 2 shows a cross section of the heat exchanger 20 along section A-A of Figure 1 . More particularly, a rectangular electrode plate 3 is shown in more detail from the front thereof. Figure 3 shows another cross sectional view along section A-A where it is assumed that the heat exchanger has a circular cross section. Thus a circular electrode plate 3 is provided. Circular cross section of the heat transfer plate and of the electrode may be desired in certain applications, for example because of improved strength and ease of manufacture. It is noted that although the rectangular and circular shapes are the most common a heat exchanger may also have any other appropriate cross sectional shape.
  • FIG 4 shows schematically the relationship between heat transfer plates 6 of the heat exchanger and electrodes 3.
  • every other plate can be a heat transfer plate 6 and every other plate can be an electrode 3.
  • An electrode plate can be positioned between each heat transfer plate pair of a heat exchanger.
  • the heat transfer plate pair can form a primary or a secondary channel.
  • the electrode plate between the heat transfer plates can be substantially identical with the heat transfer plates.
  • the plates can be arranged such that there are three plates in a first orientation and the next three plates are in another orientation and so on. This is illustrated by Figures 6 and 7 .
  • FIG 5 shows an enlargement of the circled area B of Figure 1 .
  • the heat transfer plates are provided as a module that is welded to the inlet tubing 2 such that side walls 26 of the heat transfer plate module 6 provide each a heat transfer plate.
  • the electrode element 3 is placed between the plates 26.
  • Each electrode element 3 is shown to be isolated from the respective heat transfer element 6 by means of appropriate non-conductive insulator 9. Therefore the heat transfer plates 26 in each side of the electrode element 3 are not in electrical contact with the electrode.
  • the isolator between the electrode element and the heat transfer plates can be provided on the entire circumference of the plate as shown in figure 4 . Alternatively, appropriate isolator pieces can be provided on the circumference of the electrode plate, as shown in figures 2 and 3 .
  • the isolator 9 can be provided from, for example, EPDN isolator tape, ceramic or plastic isolator material, or from any other dielectric material. Because of the isolation 9 the electrodes 3 are not in contact with any part of the body of the heat exchanger.
  • a gap 25 is provided in each side of the electrode plate between the adjacent heat transfer plate and the electrode.
  • the width of the gap can be designed based on the particular requirements set for the heat exchanger.
  • the gap can be in the order of 2mm.
  • Figures 1 , 4 and 5 show further a conductive elongated element 1 extending through the heat exchanger.
  • the conductive element can be provided by conductive rod or bar 1.
  • the elongated conductive element 1 can extend within the tubing of the primary flow channel 2.
  • the conductive element can extend through openings 22 in the heat transfer plates 6. The openings 22 are dimensioned such so that no contact is made between the conductive element 1 and the heat transfer plate 6.
  • the conductive elements can be covered by an appropriate insulating material.
  • the insulating material may extend on the entire length of the conductive element that is exposed to the fluid. This can assist in conducting all the current to the electrode elements. In accordance with a possibility only a portion or certain portions are isolated. This may be used for example to provide an additional electrode in a certain section of the heat exchanger, for example if it is desired that anodic protection is provided in a portion of the flow channel. It is also possible to have a conductive element that also has the double function of an electrode element over the entire length thereof. According to a possibility the conductive element is provided by means of wiring.
  • the bar receiving arrangement 24 in the electrode plate 3 comprises an opening 15 for receiving the conducting bar such that electrical connection is provided there between.
  • the conducting bar 1 can be welded into the electrode plate.
  • Other ways of providing an appropriate joining may also be used, including threaded assembly, pressed assembly, gluing, and so on.
  • At least one further opening 8 is provided in the vicinity of opening 15 so that the fluid in the channel 2 can flow through the electrode plate 3.
  • Figures 1 and 4 show also a second conductive element 21, for example a conductive bar, extending through the heat transfer plates and the electrode plates.
  • the second bar 21 can be provided in addition to the first bar 1 extending in the inlet channel 2.
  • Figure 1 shows also a third conductive bar 31 extending in the outlet channel 4.
  • a sole conductive bar 21 is provided as an alternative positioning for a bar in the primary inlet flow channel 2.
  • Such sole current supplying bar can in principle be positioned anywhere in the cross section of the heat exchanger. In certain applications, in particular if fouling does not occur in any particular location, it may be desired to position the conductive bar about the middle of the heat exchanger cross section. Any number of conductive bars may be provided in an appropriately distributed manner over the cross section such that none of them extends in the inlet or outlet channels. In accordance with an embodiment a plurality of conductive bars can extend through an opening provided in the transfer and electrode plates.
  • the number of conductive bars and positioning thereof depends on the application. More than one bar may be needed for example if a plurality of different electrode circuits is desired.
  • Figure 1 shows four circuits C1 to C4.
  • the circuits can be controlled independently. For example, the power and/or polarity of each circuit can be controlled independently. Also, the control can be such that only one or two of the available circuits are operational at a certain time. This can be used to reduce the total current needed. Also, it may be, depending on the application, that one section of the heat exchanger is more prone to fouling, and therefore requires different control.
  • the circuits can be controlled by the control apparatus 30.
  • the rod receiving opening of the electrode plates can be arranged such that plates belonging to a circuit have a rod receiving and engaging opening only for the rod of that circuit whereas the other opening are wider allowing pass through of rods of other circuits. That is, electrodes that are not to be connected to a circuit controlled via a conducting bar are simply provided by a larger opening and therefore isolated from the bar.
  • rod engaging openings 15 can be provided in a corner or two corners of the plate whereas the other corners have larger opening allowing the rods of other circuits to pass through.
  • a rectangular plate heat exchanger provided with electrode plates as shown in figure 2 can have four circuits. Five circuits are possible if the opening 15 in the middle of the plate is also used. If more circuits are desired, more conducting rods and respective openings can be provided. This provides freedom in designing an appropriate amount of circuits for a heat exchanger and also an appropriate amount of electrodes to be connected to any circuit.
  • the power in the separated circuits C1 to Cn can be controlled independently from each other. It is possible to supply current to all electrodes at the same time. Polarity of the circuits can be changed independently. Current can be supplied to the electrode plates, i.e. to circuits C to Cn in a cyclical fashion or otherwise such that only one set of electrodes are in use at a time. This can enable use of a single current source.
  • An electrode plate can resemble substantially from the size, periphery and shape thereof the heat exchange plates.
  • the heat transfer and electrode plates are identical.
  • An electrode plate can be manufactured as a smooth plate.
  • the electrode plate can be provided with formations such that turbulence within the conduit between the plates is improved and thereby the heat transfer efficiency of the heat transfer plate is increased.
  • the formations can comprise chevron like corrugations as shown in figures 2 to 4 , other types corrugations or recesses, bosses /protuberances, dimples, grooves, openings such as slots or holes and so forth. In principle any formation causing turbulence to the passing by flows can be used for this purpose.
  • the electrode plates comprise free flow plates. Free flow plates can provide an advantage in better pressure strength due to the formations thereon and their increased thickness.
  • adjacent electrode plate and heat transfer plate have different thicknesses.
  • the electrode plate 3 can be manufactured to be thicker than the heat transfer plates.
  • the electrode plate can be manufactured from material that is in the order of 0.1 to 2 mm and the heat transfer plates can be manufactured from material that is in the order of 0.2 to 2 mm. It is noted that different thicknesses can be used, depending on the application.
  • the plates can be manufactured from same or different materials.
  • the electrode plate may be manufactured from more heat and/or wear resistant material.
  • the electrode plate may also be coated by an appropriate coating.
  • the coating may be applied for example to improve the operational life time of the plate, to improve the electrical properties thereof, and/or to influence the flow against the plate. It is also possible to influence the cathodic reaction and thus formation of gases by means of coating. For example, it is possible to form sodium chlorate by means of a titanium electrode coated by ruthenium oxide.
  • the fouling prevention and protection arrangement may be arranged to be anodic, cathodic or it can be switched between anodic and cathodic operational modes by the controller apparatus 30.
  • some of the circuits C1 - Cn are driven in anodic mode where as some other circuits are driven in cathodic mode.

  • the embodiment can provide advantage in that the current is applied uniformly to the adjacent heat transfer elements. Furthermore, for example in plate exchangers similar potential can be applied to the heat transfer plates on both sides of the electrode plate. Manufacture and assembly of a plate heat exchanger with integrated cleaning and/or protection system can be made easier and more economically viable. In tube exchangers a round electrode within a tube provides similarly even treatment on the entire heat transfer surface around it. The embodiment enables use of more controlled and optimized application of currents and potentials to the heat transfer elements. The separated electrode and the adjacent heat transfer surfaces can be polarized in controlled and optimal manner. This is mainly so because the limitations of use of a heat transfer element in a dual function as an electrode can be avoided.
  • An advantage provided by division of electrodes into smaller circuits is the improved controllability of the process. For example, more accurate control of temporary or short duration formation of gases may be provided. This can be of particular importance in systems where polarizations can be changed, for example in view of reduction of formed gases and power consumption.
