HEAT EXCHANGE DEVICE Filed Nov. l5, 1956 INVENTOR Ma/MA-Mmf/v ATTORNEY 3,077,226 HEAT EXCHANGE DEVICE William F. Matheny, Tulsa, Okla., assignor to Arrow Industrial Manufacturing Company, Tulsa, Okla., a corporation of Oklahoma Filed Nov. 15, 1956, Ser. No. 622,317 3 Claims. (Cl. 16S- 125) The present invention relates to a heat exchange unit and is more specically directed to an air cooled condenser utilizing the counterflow heat exchange principle and with gravity drainage of the tubes to provide an eflicient device for extracting heat from a gaseous medium or liquid such as a refrigerant and the condensate thereof.
An object of the invention is to provide a heat exchange unit for non-solids wherein a plurality of tubes for guiding the medium are arranged in an annular bundle and so arranged that the medium in its hottest state enters the tubes at the inner periphery thereof and as it progresses through the tubes is cooled by air entering from the outer periphery of the tube bundle whereby the air `lirst entering the tube assembly is at its lowest temperature and the coldest air thus comes in contact with those portions of the tubes containing a gaseous medium or the condensate thereof which has already been cooled to some extent throughout the inner periphery of the tube bundle whereby the hottest medium guided by the inner convolutions of the coils is cooled by the warmest air and the coolest portion of the medium is in heat exchange relation with the coolest air to provide a counterflow prnciple in an annular arrangement of tubes in a heat exchange unit.
Another object of the invention is to provide a condenser with the coils arranged in an annular assembly wherein each convolution of each tube slopes downwardly in proceeding to the outlet header thereby assuring positive drainage of the condensate and thereby insures that the maximum tube wall area is available for the condensation of vapor within the tubes.
Other objects and features of the invention will be appreciated and become apparent as the present disclosure proceeds and upon consideration of the accompanying drawing and the following detailed description wherein an exemplary embodiment of the invention is disclosed.
In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a heat exchange unit exhibiting the invention.
FIG. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken through the axis of the unit.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary view illustrating the manner in which the convolutions of the tubes are maintained in spaced relationship.
FIG. 4 is a fragmentary plan View of a portion of the tube bundle showing the disposition of the inlet and outlet headers.
Referring to the drawing the tubes for guiding a medium to be cooled are supported on a frusto-conically shaped base member 10. This member may be formed of metal and provided with a dat central disc-shaped portion 11 which is desirably erected and maintained in a horizontal plane. The base member may be supported in any suitable manner such as by legs 12. The area under the base member may be utilized to accommodate a compressor and other equipment and parts of a refrigeration system. The peripheral or skirt portion 14 of the base member 10 slopes downward in proceeding outwardly from the periphery of the central portion 11 at an angle with respect thereto. In the embodiment illustrated the angle of inclination of the annular skirt portion 14 is about thirty degrees with respect to the horizontal plane of the central portion 11. This sloping portion provides a foundation for an annular group of tubes.
" rit States Patent Ofce 3,077,226 Patented Feb. 12, 1963 An inlet header for the tubes is -shown at 16 and it will be noted that this inlet header is arranged at the inner periphery of the circular bundle of tubes 17. In the embodiment illustrated eleven tubes are connected to the inlet header 16. The lowest tube 18 after leaving the inlet header 16 makes four complete turns and is supported along the plane of the sloping skirt portion 14 of the base member. The end of the outermost convolution of the tube 18 is connected to an outlet header 19. The outermost convolution of the tube 18 is approximately three diameters below the point where it is connected to the inlet header 16. Each convolution of the lowest tube y18 lies along and is supported on the sloping skirt portion 14. Thus each turn or convolution outwardly of the inlet header 16 is at a lower elevation and positive drainage of liquid or condensate from the inlet header end of the tube to the outlet header 19 is assured. Additional tubes are connected to the inlet header 16 above the tube 18. Each of these tubes makes four turns and the low positions of the outer convolutions of these tubes is indicated at 21 in FIG. 2. The ends of the outermost convolution of these tubes are connected to the outlet header 19. As many tubes may be employed as desired to form the annular bundle and in order to provide a unit of desired capacity. The uppermost tube 22 and the successive outer convolutions thereof slope downwardly as shown in FIG. 2 so that the top portion of the coil assembly slopes downwardly in proceeding outwardly.
The tubes are of the iin type well known in the art and in the embodiment illustrated the tubes are arranged in such position that the centers thereof dene a triangle las indicated by the dotted lines in FIG. 3. The periphery of the tins of one tube in the central portion of the group engage the fins of siX adjacent tubes. The tube portions of 'the innermost and outermost convolutions engage the tins of four adjacent tubes. The tubes may be held in spaced relation by spacer elements such as shown at `24 in FIG. 3. The spacer element is desirably formed of metal having good heat conducting characteristics such as aluminum.
A fan for moving air over the coils in the direction of the arrows in FIG. 2 is provided which includes fan blades 26 driven by a motor 27. The motor may be supported on the base member 10 and the fan blades may be supported and driven by the shaft of the motor 27. lt will be noted that the fan blades 26 are such that they move in a path which is quite close to the innermost convolution of the top tube 22.
An annular fan stack 31 is provided above the fan and this member includes a frusto-conical skirt portion 32 which partly shrouds the fan blades 26. The skirt 32 desirably slopes downwardly in proceeding outwardly to cover the annular assembly of tubes. A guard screen 33 may be provided over the upper end of the fan stack member 31.
While the invention has been disclosed with regard to a condenser for a refrigeration system it will be appreciated that the invention has utility in other elds of heat exchange. Changes may be made in the structural arrangement and the overall organization. Such modications and others may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
