Definitions

  • the invention relates to a diffuser and a method for calculating the geometry of a diffuser.
  • Nozzles are needed for a variety of technical problems, for example when drying components from long distances. Drying or tempering of components can be necessary both in the field of body painting, glass production or in the field of building air conditioning. For this purpose, a nozzle is needed that can effectively and effectively dry and / or aerate a good from a distance as large as possible. A very homogeneous velocity distribution of a dry air on the material to be dried can be of great importance, for example to achieve the most uniform possible drying of the material.
  • jet nozzles known that can be traversed by a fluid for drying a distant good.
  • Such jet nozzles have in the interior a flow channel whose cross-section decreases in the flow direction.
  • accelerated while its pressure decreases According to the physical flow principle of a nozzle while the fluid flowing through the jet nozzle, accelerated while its pressure decreases. By accelerating the fluid, it is possible to produce high penetration depths, which are necessary for drying goods.
  • a nozzle is known in which a pressure loss inside the nozzle is minimized.
  • a nozzle with a tapering cross-section is used, in which a cartridge-shaped obstacle is introduced into the flow channel.
  • the nozzle is intended for use at pressures of no more than 2 psi.
  • the publication US 5,937,908 A relates to a straightening device comprising a diffuser connected to an inlet tube having a rectangular cross-section to form an enlarged channel and eight straightening vanes disposed within the diffuser.
  • the diffuser has a rectangular Cross-sectional area and is formed so that it increases its cross-sectional area from a channel inlet to an outlet.
  • the surface of each straightening blade is arranged along the flow direction. Instead of completely dividing the channel by a straightening wing, the straightening vanes are respectively arranged on the upstream and downstream sides in the flow direction at intervals to form a central opening portion in the channel without separation.
  • the publication DE 395 134 C relates to a diffuser for pipes for the implementation of the flow rate of a gas or a liquid in pressure, wherein in or behind the arbitrarily designed extension of the flow channel, a bluff body is arranged.
  • the publication US 2006/0151633 relates to a nozzle with exit-side rupture edges which are inclined inwards. This creates a vortex field that determines the beam field in the wake of a fluid flowing through the nozzle.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a jet nozzle with a uniform distribution of velocity as possible in the far field of emerging from the jet nozzle fluid, wherein a pressure loss is reduced to achieve large penetration depths.
  • One aspect of the invention relates to a diffuser having a nozzle inlet, a nozzle exit and a flow channel extending from the nozzle inlet to the nozzle exit in a main flow direction, wherein the flow channel is bounded at its cross-sectional ends by diffuser walls and has a smaller cross-sectional area at the nozzle entrance than at the nozzle exit a central body is arranged in the flow channel within the diffuser.
  • the diffuser is designed as a long throw nozzle.
  • a diffuser is a special type of nozzle in which the cross-section of the flow channel does not taper, but widen as in a classic nozzle. Often, the diffuser is also referred to as a counterpart to the nozzle. While in a conventional nozzle, the cross-section of the flow channel tapers in the main flow direction, which causes an increase in velocity and a pressure drop at a fluid flowing through the nozzle, a diffuser causes the opposite: a fluid flowing through a diffuser is decelerated as it flows through the diffuser, wherein its pressure elevated.
  • the cross-sectional areas of the flow channel at the nozzle inlet and at the nozzle outlet can be compared with one another. If the cross-sectional area at the nozzle outlet is greater than the cross-sectional area at the nozzle inlet, then the nozzle may be a diffuser; conversely, the area ratio is a classic nozzle.
  • the flow channel of the diffuser is arranged in the interior of the diffuser and designed essentially as a free space.
  • the flow channel is from Limited diffuser walls, which determine the shape of the flow channel.
  • the diffuser walls are formed as part of the diffuser.
  • the diffuser is designed and provided to be flowed through by a fluid in a predetermined direction.
  • the predetermined direction extends from the nozzle entrance to the nozzle exit and is referred to as the main flow direction. In the main flow direction thereby increases the cross-section of the flow channel, which is bounded by the diffuser walls.
  • This enlargement or expansion of the flow channel may be, for example, continuous, stepped, logarithmic, exponential, along a polynomial function or along a combination of the aforementioned shape changing functions.
  • a classic diffuser reduces the speed of a fluid passing through the diffuser and increases the pressure. Deceleration of the fluid is not always desirable for a jet nozzle, as this may result in a very uneven velocity distribution across the cross-section. Therefore, a central body is arranged in the interior of the flow channel, ie in the interior of the diffuser, which is designed as a flow body. The central body is arranged in the diffuser so that it is flowed around by a fluid flowing through the diffuser in the main flow direction. By introducing the central body into the flow channel, the flow behavior, in particular the speed and the pressure of the fluid flowing through the diffuser, is influenced.
  • the speed and the pressure of the fluid flowing through the flow channel can be influenced and / or determined both in the near field and in the far field by the shape of the central body.
  • the central body may cause a reduction in the free cross-sectional area of the flow channel at the nozzle exit.
  • the freely permeable surface portion may be of the same size or smaller.
  • the freely flow-through surface portion of the cross-sectional area of the flow channel which can be traversed by a fluid flowing through the diffuser.
  • the space in the flow channel, which is occupied by the central body can not be traversed by a fluid.
  • the central body is at least partially disposed in the interior of the flow channel. A part of the central body may protrude from the flow channel. In this case, the central body is preferably arranged such that it is arranged in a space region near or at the nozzle exit. The space region of the flow channel, which is formed adjacent to the nozzle inlet, is preferably formed free of a central body. The central body may be spaced from the diffuser walls in the diffuser.
  • Such a diffuser with a central body arranged in the flow channel can be used to achieve particularly large penetration depths and enables a homogeneous velocity distribution in the far field of the fluid ejected from the diffuser.
  • the diffuser reduces the pressure loss of the fluid compared to a diffuser without a central body and serves to achieve large penetration depths. In existing drying systems, the diffuser can lead to the reduction of a required pumping capacity at a constant penetration depth.
  • the far field is the beam area after the nozzle exit where atmospheric turbulence dominates the beam spread. In the far field, in particular, no more core beam can be detected in the beam field. Usually, the far field starts at a distance after the nozzle exit, which is six to eight times the diameter of the cross section of the nozzle exit.
  • the exact shape or geometry of the central body can be calculated using a computer simulation to obtain a certain penetration or temperature distribution in the jet for a particular fluid.
  • the central body may be formed differently shaped.
  • the central body may be formed, for example, as an ellipsoid, as a pyramid, or as a cuboid body.
  • the central body is designed as a flow obstacle and has a volume and a shape that significantly influences the flow behavior of a fluid flowing through the diffuser.
  • the present invention relates to a diffuser that achieves a particularly favorable heat transfer to the target.
  • the diffuser can be designed to be free of inner edges at its diffuser exit. This means that the diffuser at its diffuser outlet in longitudinal section has at least straight or outwardly inclined edges.
  • the output edges may be formed in particular rounded. As a result, a desired and / or predetermined flow distribution is achieved.
  • the diffuser is designed as a long throw nozzle.
  • a jet nozzle is a nozzle which is designed and provided for the greatest possible penetration depths.

  • the penetration depth of a nozzle determines the distance or the distance from the nozzle outlet at which the fluid flowing through the nozzle has a desired flow behavior after flowing through the nozzle.
  • the penetration depth may mean a predetermined distance by which a material to be dried is spaced from the nozzle exit of the long throw nozzle.
  • the penetration depth may be e.g. be between 2 and 3 m.
  • the central body is arranged in the middle of a cross section through the flow channel. Due to the arrangement of the central body in the middle of the flow channel, the central body can be flowed around on all its sides by a fluid flowing through the diffuser. As a result, the central body can influence the fluid or the speed and the pressure of the fluid with all its body surfaces and sides.
  • the central body can be held by a holder in the flow channel, that it is arranged at a predetermined location in the interior of the flow channel.

  • the central body is shaped and arranged in the flow channel such that the central body on the diffuser walls reduces flow separation of a fluid flowing through the diffuser.
  • a fluid that flows through a widening flow channel or a diffuser can experience different flow behavior. If an opening angle or an extension of the flow channel in the flow direction is sufficiently small, this is called an applied flow behavior or a fluctuating, partially detached flow behavior. If the diffuser has a more open flow channel, that is to say a further widening flow channel, the flow in the flow channel can lose its pulsating character, wherein one speaks of a detached flow behavior. In a detached flow arise in the flow channel and in the wake flow vortex of the fluid.

  • the nozzle exit has at least ten percent greater cross-sectional area than the nozzle entrance.
  • the cross section of the flow channel widens in the main flow direction preferably steadily. With a ten percent larger area is meant the total area of the respective cross-section.
  • the cross-section at the nozzle exit may have a partial region of the central body which reduces the free cross-sectional area.
  • the cross-sectional area of the nozzle exit may also be at least 50% or 100% larger than the cross-sectional area of the nozzle entrance.
  • the flow channel of the diffuser is formed so widening in the main flow direction that the flow channel without the central body would cause a flow separation of a fluid flowing through the diffuser.
  • the flow channel of the diffuser is designed so that it expands so much that it would cause a flow separation without the central body.
  • the diffuser without the central body would be unsuitable as a jet nozzle and would lead to a deterioration of the flow quality of the fluid.
  • the central body is formed in the diffuser so as to prevent or at least reduce this flow separation.
  • the central body is replaceably mounted in the flow channel of the diffuser.
  • the diffuser may have a plurality of central bodies which may be mounted in the flow channel depending on the intended use of the diffuser.
  • Such variable central bodies can lead to very different flow behavior of a fluid flowing through the diffuser.
  • a holder can be designed to receive different central body in the flow channel so that the central body are detachably fastened to the holder.
