Description
La présente invention concerne une grille de maintien d'un cata lyseur dans un faisceau de plaques d'un réacteur catalytique et un faisceau de plaques muni d'une telle grille. The present invention relates to a grid for retaining a catalytic converter in a bundle of plates of a catalytic reactor and a bundle of plates provided with such a grid.
Dans de nombreuses industries, comme par exemple les indus tries pétrochimiques et chimiques, on utilise des procédés de traitement qui mettent ceuvre des réacteurs dans lesquels se produisent, entre un fluide ré actif et catalyseur, des réactions chimiques qui sont en général réactions catalytiques ayant lieu dans des conditions données de températures de pres sions. In many industries, such as the petrochemical and chemical industries, treatment processes are used which operate reactors in which occur between a reactive fluid and catalyst, chemical reactions which are generally catalytic reactions taking place under given conditions of pressure temperatures.
Pour cela, on utilise des réacteurs catalytiques formés par une enceinte etanche à l'intérieure de laquelle sont disposés des tubes parallèles remplis catalyseurs. For this, we use catalytic reactors formed by a sealed enclosure inside which are arranged parallel tubes filled with catalysts.
Le fluide principal circule dans ces tubes à l'intérieur desquels se produit réaction et le fluide de refroidissement si cette réaction est exothermi que ou fluide caloporteur si ladite réaction est endothermique circule à l'exté rieur desdits tubes, entre ceux-ci et la paroi interne de l'enceinte. The main fluid circulates in these tubes inside which reaction takes place and the cooling fluid if this reaction is exothermic or heat transfer fluid if said reaction is endothermic circulates outside said tubes, between them and the wall internal speaker.
Le principal inconvénient de ces réacteurs tubulaires réside dans leurs dimensions car, pour de grosses unités, le nombre de tubes devient rapi dement tres important et le diamètre de l'appareil excessif. The main drawback of these tubular reactors lies in their dimensions because, for large units, the number of tubes quickly becomes very large and the diameter of the device excessive.
On connaît également des réacteurs catalytiques à plaques qui comprennent un faisceau de plaques délimitant un premier circuit de circulation d'un fluide réactif et un second circuit de circulation d'un fluide de refroidissement ou d'un fluide caloporteur, les deux circuits circulant à contre-courant ou à cou rants croisés dans le faisceau de plaques. Catalytic plate reactors are also known which comprise a bundle of plates delimiting a first circuit for circulation of a reactive fluid and a second circuit for circulation of a cooling fluid or a heat-transfer fluid, the two circuits circulating against -current or cross-currents in the bundle of plates.
Le circuit du fluide réactif comporte un catalyseur apte à favoriser la réaction catalytique et ce circuit comporte également des moyens de maintien de ce catalyseur dans les canaux dudit circuit. The reactive fluid circuit includes a catalyst capable of promoting the catalytic reaction and this circuit also includes means for holding this catalyst in the channels of said circuit.
Généralement, les moyens de maintien du catalyseur sont for més grilles s'étendant sur toute la largeur des canaux du circuit du fluide réactif possédant chacune des ouvertures inférieures à la taille des grains for mant le catalyseur. grilles doivent pouvoir résister à toutes les sollicitations mé caniques telles le poids du catalyseur, les variations d'espacement entre deux plaques faisceau de plaques ainsi qu'aux dilatations des plaques dudit faisceau par effet thermique. Generally, the means for holding the catalyst are formed grids extending over the entire width of the channels of the reactive fluid circuit, each having openings smaller than the size of the grains forming the catalyst. grids must be able to withstand all mechanical stresses such as the weight of the catalyst, the variations in spacing between two plates bundle of plates as well as the expansion of the plates of said bundle by thermal effect.
Enfin, ces grilles doivent aussi résister aux efforts compres sion et de traction au niveau des zones de fixation sur les plaques faisceau de plaques et avoir des ouvertures de faible dimension pour éviter passage du catalyseur, mais suffisamment larges pour laisser passer le fluide réactif sans générer trop de pertes de charge. Finally, these grids must also resist compressive and tensile stresses at the level of the fixing zones on the plate bundle plates and have small openings to avoid passage of the catalyst, but sufficiently wide to allow the reactive fluid to pass without generating too much pressure drop.
Jusqu'à présent, les grilles ont la forme d'un U comportant trois branches planes et rigides. So far, the grids have the shape of a U comprising three flat and rigid branches.
Compte tenu de cette forme et de la rigidité des branches latéra les, ce type de grilles ne permet pas de s'affranchir correctement tolérances de fabrication et de montage entre deux plaques du faisceau plaques ainsi que des dilatations de ces plaques par effet thermique, ce qui pose problè mes au niveau des zones de fixation de ladite grille entre les plaques faisceau de plaques. Taking into account this shape and the rigidity of the lateral branches, this type of grids does not allow to correctly overcome manufacturing and mounting tolerances between two plates of the plate bundle as well as expansions of these plates by thermal effect, this which poses problems at the level of the fixing zones of said grid between the plates bundle of plates.
L'invention a pour but de proposer une grille de maintien d'un catalyseur qui évite les inconvénients précédemment mentionnés. The object of the invention is to propose a grid for holding a catalyst which avoids the drawbacks mentioned above.
L'invention a donc pour objet une grille de maintien d'un cataly seur dans un faisceau de plaques d'un réacteur catalytique, ledit faisceau de plaques étant formé par un empilement de plaques d'échange thermique délimi tant entre elles des circuits de circulation de fluides et dont au moins un est rem pli dudit catalyseur maintenu à chaque extrémité du circuit par ladite grille, ca ractérisée en ce qu'elle est formée par au moins une plaque souple de largeur supérieure à l'espace entre deux plaques adjacentes du circuit contenant ledit catalyseur et pliée selon un rayon de courbure sensiblement égal ou supérieur à la moitié dudit espace pour que les branches de la plaque pliée s'appliquent par élasticité sur les plaques dudit circuit. The subject of the invention is therefore a grid for holding a catalyst in a bundle of plates of a catalytic reactor, said bundle of plates being formed by a stack of heat exchange plates delimiting circulating circuits between them. of fluids and at least one of which is filled with said catalyst held at each end of the circuit by said grid, ca ractérisée in that it is formed by at least one flexible plate of width greater than the space between two adjacent plates of the circuit containing said catalyst and folded according to a radius of curvature substantially equal to or greater than half of said space so that the branches of the folded plate are applied by elasticity to the plates of said circuit.
Selon d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention - la partie centrale de la plaque pliée est dirigée vers l'intérieur du circuit contenant ledit catalyseur, - le rayon de courbure de ladite plaque est continu, - la partie centrale de la plaque pliée comporte des fentes pour le passage du fluide, - les fentes s'étendent transversalement ou longitudinalement, - les branches de la plaque pliée sont fixées sur les plaques dudit circuit par soudage. According to other characteristics of the invention - the central part of the folded plate is directed towards the inside of the circuit containing said catalyst, - the radius of curvature of said plate is continuous, - the central part of the folded plate comprises slots for the passage of the fluid, - the slots extend transversely or longitudinally, - the branches of the folded plate are fixed to the plates of said circuit by welding.
L'invention a également pour objet un faisceau de plaques pour un réacteur catalytique, du type comprenant un empilement plaques d'échange thermique délimitant entre elles des circuits de circulation fluides et dont au moins un est rempli d'un catalyseur, caractérisé en ce que catalyseur maintenu à chaque extrémité du circuit par une grille telle que precédemment mentionnée. The subject of the invention is also a bundle of plates for a catalytic reactor, of the type comprising a stack of heat exchange plates delimiting between them fluid circulation circuits and at least one of which is filled with a catalyst, characterized in that catalyst maintained at each end of the circuit by a grid as previously mentioned.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui suivre, donnée à titre d'exemple et faite en référence aux dessins annexés, lesquels - la Fig. 1 est une vue schématique en perspective et partielle ment arrachée d'une extrémité d'un faisceau de plaques d'un réacteur catalyti- conforme à l'invention, - les Figs. 2 et 3 sont des vues schématiques en perspective res pectivement de la grille avant pliage et de la grille après pliage, - les Figs. 4 et 5 sont des vues schématiques en coupe transver sale montrant le montage d'une grille dans un faisceau de plaques réacteur catalytique. The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given by way of example and made with reference to the appended drawings, which - FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view and partially cut away from one end of a bundle of plates of a catalytic reactor according to the invention, - Figs. 2 and 3 are schematic perspective views respectively of the grid before folding and of the grid after folding, - Figs. 4 and 5 are schematic views in dirty cross-section showing the mounting of a grid in a bundle of catalytic reactor plates.
Sur la Fig. 1, on a représenté schématiquement faisceau de plaques désigné dans son ensemble par la référence 1 et destiné à être placé dans une enceinte étanche, non représentée, pour former un réacteur catalyti- Le faisceau de plaques 1 de forme générale parallélépipèdique constituté par un empilement de plaques 2 parallèles les unes aux autres et delimitant une multitude de canaux qui s'étendent longitudinalement d'une extré mité à l'autre du faisceau de plaques 1. manière classique, les plaques 2, exemple en acier inoxydable, sont maintenues entre elles par des moyens appropriés et compor tent des bords ' surface lisse et une partie centrale munie d'ondulations, non re présentées, par lesquelles elles sont en contact les unes les autres et par lesquelles elles délimitent lesdits canaux. In Fig. 1, there is shown schematically a bundle of plates designated as a whole by the reference 1 and intended to be placed in a sealed enclosure, not shown, to form a catalytic reactor. The bundle of plates 1 of generally parallelepipedal shape constituted by a stack of plates 2 parallel to each other and delimiting a multitude of channels which extend longitudinally from one end to the other of the bundle of plates 1. conventionally, the plates 2, for example made of stainless steel, are held together by appropriate means and include edges' smooth surface and a central part provided with corrugations, not shown, by which they are in contact with each other and by which they delimit said channels.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté à Fig. 1, les plaques 2 délimitent entre elles une première série de canaux 10A formant un circuit de circulation d'un fluide réactif A et une seconde série de canaux 10B formant un circuit de circulation d'un fluide caloporteur B. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the plates 2 define between them a first series of channels 10A forming a circulation circuit for a reactive fluid A and a second series of channels 10B forming a circulation circuit for a heat transfer fluid B.
canaux 10A sont répartis sur un canal deux dans le fais ceau de plaques et le fluide A circule dans ces canaux 10A à courants croisés par rapport au fluide caloporteur B. channels 10A are distributed over a channel two in the plate bundle and the fluid A circulates in these channels 10A at cross currents relative to the heat transfer fluid B.
Par ailleurs, les canaux 10A de circulation du fluide réactif A contiennent des particules 5 de catalyseur de façon à provoquer la réaction dési rée lors du passage du fluide réactif A. Furthermore, the channels 10A for circulation of the reactive fluid A contain particles 5 of catalyst so as to cause the desired reaction during the passage of the reactive fluid A.
Les particules 5 de catalyseur sont maintenues à chaque extré mité des canaux 10A par une grille 20 qui s'étend sur toute la longueur de l'ex trémité desdits canaux 10A du faisceau de plaques 1. The catalyst particles 5 are held at each end of the channels 10A by a grid 20 which extends over the entire length of the end of said channels 10A of the plate bundle 1.
Ainsi que représenté sur les Figs. 2 et 3, chaque grille 20 est formée à partir d'au moins une plaque 21 de préférence en matériau souple et de largeur "I" supérieure à l'espace "e" entre deux plaques adjacentes du circuit for mé par les canaux 10A contenant les particules 5 de catalyseur. As shown in Figs. 2 and 3, each grid 20 is formed from at least one plate 21 preferably of flexible material and of width "I" greater than the space "e" between two adjacent plates of the circuit formed by the channels 10A containing the catalyst particles 5.
La plaque 21 est pliée selon un rayon de courbure "r" continu ou non de façon à delimiter une partie centrale courbe 21a et deux branches 21b. rayon de courbure "r" est sensiblement égal ou supérieur à la moitié de l'espace "e" entre deux plaques 2 adjacentes du circuit contenant les particules 5 de catalyseur. The plate 21 is folded according to a radius of curvature "r" whether continuous or not so as to delimit a curved central part 21a and two branches 21b. radius of curvature "r" is substantially equal to or greater than half the space "e" between two adjacent plates 2 of the circuit containing the catalyst particles 5.
La partie centrale 21a de la plaque 21 comporte des fentes 22 transversales pour le passage du fluide réactif A et réparties, dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur les figures, selon deux rangées parallèles. The central part 21a of the plate 21 has transverse slots 22 for the passage of the reactive fluid A and distributed, in the embodiment shown in the figures, in two parallel rows.
Selon une variante, la partie centrale 21a de la plaque 21 peut comporter une seule rangée de fentes 22 transversales. Selon une autre variante, les fentes 22 s'étendent longitudinale ment. According to a variant, the central part 21a of the plate 21 may comprise a single row of transverse slots 22. According to another variant, the slots 22 extend longitudinally.
Ces fentes 22 peuvent être interrompues par un ligament ou non et sont suffisamment fines pour ne pas laisser la possibilité aux particules 5 de catalyseur de échapper par lesdites fentes, mais elles sont suffisamment larges pour laisser passer le fluide réactif A sans générer trop de pertes de charge. These slits 22 may or may not be interrupted by a ligament and are thin enough not to allow the catalyst particles 5 to escape through said slits, but they are wide enough to allow the reactive fluid A to pass without generating too many losses of charge.
Comme représenté sur les Figs. 4 et 5, la plaque 21 pliée est positionnée face de l'extrémité du canal 10A à obturer pour que la partie cen trale 21a de ladite plaque 21 soit dirigée vers l'intérieur du circuit contenant les particules 5 de catalyseur. As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, the folded plate 21 is positioned opposite the end of the channel 10A to be closed so that the central part 21a of said plate 21 is directed towards the interior of the circuit containing the particles 5 of catalyst.
Cette plaque 21 pliée est introduite dans le canal 10A corres pondant, ainsi représenté à la Fig. 5. This folded plate 21 is introduced into the corresponding channel 10A, thus represented in FIG. 5.
fait du rayon de courbure "r" qui est sensiblement égal ou su périeur à la moitié de l'espace "e" entre deux plaques 2 adjacentes, les branches 21b de la plaque 21 pliée s'appliquent par élasticité sur lesdites plaques 2. made of the radius of curvature "r" which is substantially equal to or greater than half the space "e" between two adjacent plates 2, the branches 21b of the folded plate 21 are applied by elasticity to said plates 2.
La partie centrale 21a de la plaque 21 est donc orientée vers l'intérieur du faisceau de plaques 1 et, après la mise en place de cette plaque 21, les branches sont fixées sur les plaques 2 contiguës par soudage. The central part 21a of the plate 21 is therefore oriented towards the inside of the bundle of plates 1 and, after the positioning of this plate 21, the branches are fixed to the adjacent plates 2 by welding.
soudage peut être réalisé par la méthode TIG, par points ou en continu et avec ou sans métal d'apport, ou encore par points générés par dé charge de condensateur. welding can be carried out by the TIG method, by points or continuously and with or without filler metal, or by points generated by capacitor charge.
Chaque extrémité des canaux 10A du circuit de circulation fluide réactif A est ainsi munie d'une grille 20 de façon à maintenir les particules de catalyseur dans chacun desdits canaux 10A. Each end of the channels 10A of the reactive fluid circulation circuit A is thus provided with a grid 20 so as to hold the catalyst particles in each of said channels 10A.
La grille 20 selon l'invention présente l'avantage, du fait de forme, de pouvoir résister à toutes les sollicitations mécaniques telles que poids du catalyseur, les variations d'espacement entre deux plaques adjacentes du faisceau de plaques et également aux dilatations par effet thermique de plaques. The grid 20 according to the invention has the advantage, due to its shape, of being able to withstand all mechanical stresses such as the weight of the catalyst, the variations in spacing between two adjacent plates of the bundle of plates and also to expansion by effect. thermal of plates.
Les grilles selon l'invention présentent aussi comme avantage de pouvoir récupérer les tolérances de fabrication au niveau de la zone de soudage et cela grâce a l'effet d'élasticité des branches de la grille.The grids according to the invention also have the advantage of being able to recover the manufacturing tolerances at the level of the welding zone and this thanks to the elasticity effect of the branches of the grid.
Enfin, la grille selon l'invention est facilement réalisable par pliage ou étirage ce qui permet de pouvoir réaliser une grille obturant la totalité l'extremité de chaque canal du circuit correspondant qui, dans certains modes réalisation, peut avoir une longueur de l'ordre de cinq mètres. Finally, the grid according to the invention is easily produced by folding or stretching, which makes it possible to be able to produce a grid closing the entire end of each channel of the corresponding circuit which, in certain embodiments, may have a length of the order five meters.
