Definitions

  • FIG. 1 A. HOURWITZ' ETAL GAS-LIQUID FINNED HEAT Excmmefin FIG. 1
  • the present invention relates to heat exchangers for the exchange of heat between a gas and a liquid.
  • heat exchangers for the transfer of heat from a donor gas to an acceptor liquid comprising two concentric annular chambers through the inner of which flows the gas and through the outer of which flows the liquid, the surface of the inner chamber for the gas comprising a plurality of longitudinally arranged ribs separated from one another by channels in the form of grooves.
  • the annular gas chamber is formed by the internally ribbed cylinder and an axially extending core, the core and the ribs being substantially coextensive.
  • the invention provides a gas-liquid heat exchanger adapted for the heat transfer from a gaseous heat donor 3,493,041 Patented Feb. 3, 1970 to a liquid heat acceptor of the foregoing type, i.e., comprising an outer annular liquid chamber and an inner gas chamber separated from each other by a partition of a heat conducting material whose surface on the side of the gas chamber comprises ribs extending in the direction of the gas flow, the outer wall of the gas chamber being defined by the mentioned partition, and the inner wall being defined by a coaxial core, the arrangement being such that the passageway for the gas in the gas chamber being gradually constricted from the hot to the cold end thereof.
  • the transversal temperature gradient is decreased near the hot end and increased near the cold end with the result that the overall efficiency of the heat exchanger is increased.
  • the height of the ribs increases gradually from the hot to the cold end of the gas chamber.
  • the shape of the slope of the ridge of each rib will depend on the design and geometry of the exchanger.
  • the slope may be straight-lined, concave-curved or convex-curved.
  • the gas chamber may be cylindrical and,
  • if desired, may comprise a substantially cylindrical
  • FIGS. 1, 2 and 4 are axial sections of three heat exchangers according to the invention; and FIGS. 3 and 5 are fragments of sections along lines IIIIII of FIG. 1, and VV of FIG. 4, respectively, drawn to a larger scale.
  • the heat exchanger illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3 comprises a cylindrical body 1 and a core 2.
  • An inner tubular partition 3 subdivides the inner space of body 1 into a liquid chamber 4 and a gas chamber 5.
  • the liquid chamber 4 comprises connections 6 and 7, one of which serves as the inlet and the other as the outlet, depending on whether the liquid and gas flow is in counter-current or co-current.
  • Body 1 is fitted with two caps 8 and 9 of which the former serves as the gas inlet and thus constitutes the hot end of the gas chamber, and the latter serves as the gas outlet and thus constitutes the cold end of the gas hamber.
  • the inner face of partition 3 facing the gas chamber 5 omprises a plurality of ribs 1 the height of each of vhich increases gradually from a minimum near the hot -.nd to a maximum near the cold end of gas chamber 5.
  • t follows from this arrangement that the passageway for he gas in chamber is constricted gradually from the hot 0 the cold end of the chamber.
  • the effective contact :etween the gas and the partition increases gradually 1 'rom the hot towards the cold end of the chamber, that is, n the same direction as the temperature of the gas lecreases.
  • FIG. 2 is basically iimilar to that of FIGS. 1 and 3, except that in FIG. 2 he gradual constriction of the passageway for the gas in :he gas chamber is achieved by a gradual increase of the :ross-sectional area of the core.
  • the ribs a are of uniform height while the diameter of core la is smaller near the hot end of the gas chamber 5 and increases gradually towards the cold end. All other components are identical to those of the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 3 and are designated by the same numerals.
  • the functioning of this embodiment is similar to that of the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 3 in that the passageway for the gas chamber 5 is constricted gradually from the hot to the cold end of the chamber, whereby the effective contact between the gas and partition 3 increases gradually in the same direction.
  • the gas chamber does not include a core, and ribs 10b increase in height gradually from the hot to the cold end so as to meet or nearly meet at a point 11 along the longitudinal axis of the heat exchanger.
  • the remaining components of this exchanger are similar to those of the preceding two embodiments and are therefore indexed by the same numerals.
  • the cylindrical shape of the gas chamber 5 may be modified into a tubular chamber of other cross-sectional shape, e.g. elliptical or polygonal of any kind.
  • a gas-liquid heat exchanger for the heat transfer from a gaseous heat donor to a liquid heat acceptor comprising, an outer annular liquid chamber forming a passageway for the liquid, an inner gas chamber forming a passageway for the gas, said chambers being separated from each other by a partition of a heat conducting material whose surface on the side of the gas chamber 0 forms the outer wall of the gas chamber and comprises ribs extending into the passageway for the gas and longitudinally of the gas chamber in the direction of the gas flow, and a coaxial core dis-posed within the gas chamber and forming the inner wall thereof, the passageway for the gas in the gas chamber being gradually constricted from the hot to the cold end thereof, said coaxial core being cylindrical and defining wtih said partition a cylindrical gas chamber, the height of said ribs increasing gradually from the hot to the cold end of the gas chamber.
