Description

The invention relates to the field of agricultural energy and can be used to heat water with the heat produced by animals, in particular cattle. The device can be used for laboratory work in training students studying the discipline "Electrotechnology".

For heating water, devices of various types are used. The most common are electrode water heaters, using heating elements, induction and steam generators.

Known tubular heat exchangers containing heat exchanging tubular elements at the ends of which collectors are installed (see, for example, patent RU No. 2294503, publ. 02.27.2007, class IPC F28D 7/16). This multi-sectional heat exchanger is designed to heat the fluid flowing inside the pipes in a stream of hot gases and consists of sections including straight-line heat exchangers, at the ends of which collectors are installed. The disadvantage of this design is the uneven temperature field of the circulating coolants.

The device RU No. 2294503 has the greatest number of similar features with the proposed device.

The technical task is to create a device that allows you to ensure uniformity of the temperature field on the water circulating in the device, as well as reducing the consumption of electric energy spent on heating the water.

The tasks are solved as follows. In the upper part of the livestock building, for the maintenance of cattle, in places of concentration of the maximum temperature, the proposed heat exchanger installation is located. It is made in the form of a round pipe, which is welded along the contour of the rectangle and has an input through which cold water enters and an output through which heated water flows into the storage tank, and then is distributed to consumers. Along the pipe, parallel to the floor line, are welded by spot welding on both sides of the pipe fins, the function of which is to increase the heating area and as a result accelerate the time of heating the water in the device.

The operation of the device is based on the interaction of the design of the installation with heat produced by animals. Heat is concentrated in the upper part of the livestock building. In this place, it is fixedly fixed to the bearing supports on the suspensions. The assembly of the installation is carried out using threaded connections, which allows in case of a malfunction of the installation, any violations in its operation, to dismantle and carry out repair work or preventive examinations without hindrance.

The proposed design of the device allows you to evenly distribute the heating of water, which will increase the efficiency of this process and evens out the effect on the structural elements and the apparatus as a whole.

The proposed device is intended to reduce the consumption of electrical energy spent on heating water. But a complete rejection of the consumption of electric energy cannot be made, because the design of the device provides for a circulation pump, which forces the water in the device to circulate continuously, thereby increasing the heating rate and preventing water stagnation in the installation.

The essence of the technical solution is illustrated by drawings where:

in FIG. 1 shows the design of the main part of the device;

in FIG. 2 shows a pipe section of a device.

The heat exchanger consists of heat exchange tubes 1, which form a rectangular view. Along each pipe parallel to each other are spot welded ribs 2. Heat transfer pipes are interconnected by elbows 3 to 90 °. The device has an input 4, through which water enters for heating, and a terminal 5, through which water from the device, heated, enters the storage tank and is distributed to consumers. The manufacture of the structure is carried out individually for each room, depending on its geometric dimensions. The ability to control the volume of water is carried out due to the length of the structure and adaptation to the installation conditions (bypassing, if necessary, supporting structures, adaptability to various room structures, etc.).

This device in comparison with analogues is specially simplified in design so that it does not adversely affect the process of air exchange in the livestock building, which is an advantage of the invention. Also, manufacturing costs are minimized compared to other samples.

It is proposed to use this device in cattle, poultry and pig breeding complexes, that is, in those in which there is a consumption of electricity used to heat water in order to reduce the cost of production.
