Definitions

  • Heat exchanger especially for cooling water at fresh water recovery by distillation of sea water .
  • This invention relates to a heat exchanger, which is intended especial- ly for use at the cooling of water in connection with the recovery of fresh water by distillation of sea water .
  • SE-PS 387 927 which a. o. shows an evaporation chamber comprising a plurality of flow elements, which substantially are of plane parallel and vertical rela- tionship. According to the process disclosed in said patent specifica ⁇ tion, cooled fresh water is to be fed into the evaporation chamber .
  • One object of the present invention is to bring about a heat exchanger with flow elements adapted for use at the cooling of fresh water prior to its feed into the evaporation chamber.
  • a further object of the invention is to render it pos sible to recover desalted sea water at such a price that such recovery really is econo ⁇ mic for being applied to normal agricultural irrigation in areas having no fresh water resources of their own.
  • the invention is based on the idea of being able with very low overpres sures to utilize the immense low temperature resources, which are available in sea water and easily can be transferred by pumping to places of demand.
  • the small temperature gradients here involved and to be utilized require large surfaces . This requirement is not met by conventional heat ex ⁇ changer s .
  • Conventional heat exchangers are made of metallic material in order to utilize the good heat transfer coefficient of these materials. Due to the aforesaid requirement of large surfaces at fresh water production, these heat exchanger s are unreasonably expensive .
  • Another restric ⁇ ting factor is the requirement of corrosion resistance of the material used in the heat exchanger s in view of the sea water effect.

  • the flow element according to Figs . 1 -2 consists of two thin foils 10 and 20, which in longitudinal direction of the flow element are so jointed by intermittent welding in several places in transver se direct ion, that the flow element is formed with a plurality of longitudinal gaps for water transport.
  • three such gaps are indicated to the left and one to the right by the reference numerals 1 1 , 12 , 13, 14.
  • the term intermittent welding is to be understood so that the joints welded are discontinuous .
  • a welding joint is designated by 15, and a distance between two j oints is designated by 16. It is pos sible in principle to weld continuous joints, but with discontinuous joints a certain turbulence of the water flow is obtained.
  • the flow element is connected at its upper end to two inlets 17, and at its lower end to tw outlets 18.

  • the clamping element appears more clearly from Figs . 3 -4. It has the configuration of a T with an arc- shaped roof 21 and a straight remaining portion 22. The way how the clamping element is secured in an inlet 17 and, respectively, outlet 18 is more clearly apparent from Fig.
  • the flow element is connected in the same manner to the two outlets 18 , and the foils 10, 20 are laid about a clamping ele ⁇ ment identical with said element 21 -22.
  • the width and length of the flow element may be about 4 m and, respectively, 10 m, the distance between a weld joint and the neare st adjacent joint may be 3 to 4 cm, and the diameter of a flow gap at a system filled with water may be 2 to 3 cm.

Abstract

Echangeur de chaleur destine specialement a refroidir l'eau lors de l'obtention de l'eau douce par distillation de l'eau de mer, comprenant plusieurs elements a fluide essentiellement plans et paralleles. Chaque element a fluide comprend deux feuilles (10, 20) qui sont fixees ensemble dans le sens longitudinal des elements a fluide en plusieurs endroits de maniere telle que chaque element a fluide presente un certain nombre de couloirs longitudinaux (11, 12, 13, 14) delimites par des joints discontinus (15) pour l'ecoulement de l'eau. Les extremites superieures des elements a fluide sont fixees mecaniquement a une entree (17) d'eau douce chaude provenant d'une chambre d'evaporation et les extremites inferieures des elements sont reliees a une sortie (18) d'eau refroidie menant vers la chambre d'evaporation. Les elements a fluide sont disposes dans une cuve (6) pourvue, a sa partie inferieure, d'entrees (76 a 78) d'eau de mer froide et, a sa partie superieure, de sorties (86 a 88) d'eau de mer chaude. L'echangeur de chaleur permet d'obtenir de grandes surfaces d'echange de chaleur en utilisant peu de matiere, ce qui rend economique la fabrication de l'echangeur de chaleur. Les feuilles (10, 20) sont, de preference, en plastique et sont donc legeres et ne presentent pas de problemes de corrosion.
