Description

Prefabricated Heat Pipe and Heat Pipe Washing and Drying Equipment {FABRICATION HEAT PIPE AND HEAT PIPE WASHING AND DESICCATOR}

The present invention relates to heat pipes and, more particularly, to washing and drying heat pipes.

In the conventional heat pipe manufacturing process, the inside of the pipe is heated by a high temperature for a long time in a specially designed high temperature dryer to remove residual washing oil and impurities remaining in the pipe after cleaning the inside of the pipe using a special cleaning oil. To dry.

Drying in such a manufacturing process leaves impurities in the form of powder inside the pipe.

Afterwards, the washing operation in the heat pipe to be manufactured is finished by operating a powerful air compressor to blow out the high pressure to remove impurities remaining in the pipe.

Such a small company that manufactures and produces heat pipes ends with cleaning the inside of the pipe by omitting or ignoring the cleaning step or rubbing the inside of the pipe several times with a circular wire brush.

Therefore, the situation is not manufacturing a perfect heat pipe.

As mentioned above, the reason why the heat pipe is spent a lot of time in the internal cleaning and goes through several stages is common knowledge in the same industry that the performance and life of the heat pipe is proportional to the cleanliness caused by the internal pipe cleaning. It can also be found in various studies related to heat pipes.

After completing the internal pipe cleaning process, one end of the pipe is finished in the form of argon gas welding (stainless steel pipe) or shortened (copper pipe), and the other end is attached or shortened by argon welding with a stopper formed with a heating medium inlet. .

The heat pipe manufacturing process is classified into two types of stainless steel pipes and copper pipes.

Inject the appropriate amount of heat medium mixed with methanol, freon, ammonia, or methanol and distilled water through the heat medium inlet already formed on one end of the pipe. The air inside the pipe by removing the air inside the pipe to make the inside of the pipe vacuum and sealing the heat medium inlet according to the method developed independently. This causes a lot of influence on the performance of the heat pipe.

The conventional heat pipe manufacturing method is composed of several stages of manufacturing process such as pipe washer, pipe dryer, one end compression press or argon gas welder, heating medium injector, vacuum machine, sealing processor, product inspector, etc. Many manufacturing equipment funds are being invested because of the need for the production equipment.

As a result, there is a limit to reducing the cost of heat pipe production.

The principle of the manufacturing method of the heat pipe produced by a conventional company is almost the same, but since it uses a special device designed for itself, the machine structure and equipment of the manufacturing equipment are different in appearance. Different manufacturers produce different heat pipes.

The reason why the conventional heat pipe cannot be easily applied to the heating of the house is because the housing company prefers the Excel (X.L) pipe, which is not burdened with material purchase price and generates high corporate profit.

This is because the construction industry acknowledges that heating using heat pipes saves energy, but when the company tries to heat a house using heat pipes, the purchase price of heat pipes is high, which increases the cost of construction, resulting in less corporate profit. It is to avoid the heat pipe.

The Korea Energy Management Corporation has already categorized heat pipes (superconducting heat pipes) into excellent heating facilities to support facility funding. However, due to excessive initial investment costs, it is not activated as a heating material for homes. The activities are sluggish and the publicity activities that promote heat pipe excellence are not active.

Heat pipe has been supplied to the market since 1994 by Daeyeol Energy Co., Ltd. (trade name: Z-pipe) and exported to overseas (Kazakhstan) in recognition of the excellence of heat pipe, but the raw material cost of domestic pipe rises and exchange rate decreases. The export could not continue.
