Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the production of a so-called plate type heat exchanger, i.e. of a heat exchanger comprising a box-shaped flattened body, in which is defined an internal chamber, destined to be crossed by a heat exchange operative fluid.
- Heat exchangers of the aforesaid type are advantageously used in heat exchange units of chemical reactors, to optimally complete exothermal or endothermic chemical reactions; such as for example, in the synthesis reactions of ammonia, methanol, formaldehyde or styrene respectively, said exchangers is necessary to remove or respectively supply heat to a reaction environment, generally a catalytic bed, in order to control the temperature thereof in a narrow range around a pre-calculated theoretical value .
- the invention relates to a method for the production of heat exchangers of the said plate type, comprising the operative step of:
- welding tracts refers in general to welding areas of the juxtaposed metal plates, having a pre- established length, including the borderline situation wherein the welding area is punctiform (in this case the term “welding spot” is used) .
- the invention also relates to a heat exchanger obtained with said method, as well as a chemical reactor that comprises the aforesaid heat exchangers.
- heat exchangers of the so-called plate type comprising a box-shaped, parallelepiped-shaped, flattened, generally rectangular body, inside which a chamber is defined, destined to be crossed by a heat exchange operative fluid.
- a fluid is introduced under appropriate pressure (pumping step) to mutually space out said plates and to obtain the internal chamber of the exchanger.
- prior art provides further welding between the juxtaposed plates, realized at a plurality of pre-selected tracts thereof, preferably arranged according to a plurality of alignments, parallel to a couple of opposed perimetric sides of the plates in question.
- a chamber is formed between the metal plates (internal chamber of the heat exchanger) , as stated previously, in which a plurality of "ducts" can be individualized, in the same number, plus one, as the aforesaid alignments of welding tracts, ducts which are all in mutual fluid communication through passages formed between one welding tract and the adjacent tract thereto.
- the hollow, substantially box-shaped body of the desired plate type heat exchanger is realized.
- the "ducts" formed and extended at the aforesaid couple of opposed perimetric sides of the metal plates, are conceived to act as distributor and respectively collector of the operative fluid destined to cross said plate type heat exchanger.
- the distance between the various alignments of the welding tracts is chosen according to the mechanical characteristics of the juxtaposed metal plates, due to the fact that, during the pumping action, the portions of plates between two adjacent alignments must not excessively space out - deform in order to prevent the risk of creating the fissures.
- the distance between the alignments of welding tracts has a upper bound.
- the cross section of said collector and distributor ducts is chosen according to the flow rate of operative fluid which is desired to be fed in the heat exchanger, and therefore, normally, it has a lower bound. Basically, the distance between the weldings of said opposed perimetric sides and the respective adjacent alignments of welding tracts has a lower bound.
- the said two bounds do not coincide, meaning that the distance between the weldings that define the aforesaid distributor and collector ducts is always greater than the distance in relation to the adjacent alignments of the welding tracts, wherein the longer the heat exchangers (and therefore the larger the volume of the internal chamber to be fed with operative fluid) , the greater such difference of distance.
- the main drawback concerns the pumping step of the fluid under pressure, where great care must be taken, and this has a considerable influence on heat exchanger production times .
- said "restraining" operative step is difficult to be completely automated, resulting in a incomplete exploiting of the productive potential of the machines and equipment currently available for performing said production method.
- the technical problem underlying the present invention is to devise and provide a method for the production of a plate type heat exchanger, capable to overcome the limitations and/or drawbacks described concerning prior art in a simple, cost-effective and efficient manner, i.e. capable to considerably reduce the production times, at the same time, increasing the automation level of the equipment which carries out the process.
- the aforesaid method unusually reduces the plate type heat exchanger production times.
- Figure 1 shows a schematic longitudinal section view of a chemical reactor wherein a plurality of plate type heat exchangers is installed, produced according to the method of the present invention
- Figure 2 shows a perspective view of a plate type heat exchanger, produced according to the method of the present invention, included in the reactor in figure 1;
- Figure 3 shows a schematic transversal section view of the plate type heat exchanger shown in figure 2, taken along plane z in figure 2;
- Figures 4a, 4b and 4c show a schematic section views of subsequent operative steps of production of the heat exchanger shown in detail in figure 3, taken as well along the plane z in figure 2;
- Figure 5 shows a schematic transversal section view of a second embodiment of a plate type heat exchanger produced according to the method of the present invention.
- Figure 6 shows a schematic perspective view of a third embodiment of a plate type heat exchanger produced according to the method of the present invention.
- a chemical reactor is shown, globally identified by the numeral 60, comprising a heat exchange unit 40, in turn comprising a plurality of plate type heat exchangers 10, produced using the method of the present invention.
- the chemical reactor 60 comprises a cylindrical shell 62 having an axis R-R, closed at opposite ends by respective bottoms, lower 63 and top 64. Inside the shell 62 it is provided a reaction environment 69 comprising a per se known catalytic bed that is crossed by a reactant fluid.
- the heat exchange unit 40 is supported, in a per se conventional manner, in the reaction environment 69, and, more precisely, inside the catalytic bed, the heat exchange unit 40 being intended to be dipped in a mass of a appropriate catalyst, not shown in the drawing.
- the reactant fluid enters the chemical reactor 60 through a nozzle 64a of the top bottom 64, and reaches the catalytic bed.
- the reaction products leave the reactor through a opening 63a of the lower bottom 63.
- Each plate type heat exchanger 10 is fed with a heat exchange operative fluid, which enters the reactor 60 through an inlet opening 42 and exits therefrom through an outlet opening 44.
- the heat exchangers 10 of the heat exchange unit 40 are in mutual fluid communication and are connected to the inlet opening 42 and outlet opening 44 in an absolutely conventional manner.
- the plate type heat exchanger 10 is produced starting from two metal plates 12 and 14, for example rectangular in shape, preferably having the same dimensions.
- Said plates 12 and 14 are juxtaposed and are welded together at respective perimetric sides 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d, and at a plurality of welding tracts 22, arranged in alignments (in said figures four alignments have been shown: generally speaking, these alignments are at least two in number) , parallel and adjacent to a couple of opposite perimetric sides (13a and 13c in the illustrated example) of the plates 12 and 14 themselves, and in pre- established spaced relationship from them.
- the distance between two alignments of welding tracts 22 is constant and is equal to the distance between the perimetric sides 13a and 13c and the respective adjacent welding tracts 22 (figure 4a) .
- the welding tracts 22 have a limited length, and in practice are welding "spots" (where the welding area is punctiform) .
- a fluid under pressure is introduced between said metal plates 12 and 14 that are juxtaposed to form a hollow body 17, substantially box-shaped, preferably flattened, for example with a parallelepiped form, wherein it is defined an internal chamber 16 and two substantially tubular passages 16a and 16b, formed between said couple of opposite perimetric sides 13a and 13c and the respective adjacent alignments of the welding tracts 22, said substantially tubular passages having an axis parallel to said opposite perimetric sides 13a and 13c, and being in fluid communication with said internal chamber 16 (figure 4b) .
- the method comprises the operative steps of cutting said hollow body 17 along said substantially tubular passages 16a and 16b and in the direction of their axis, thus obtaining, on the opposite sides of said hollow body, substantially semi-tubular passages 16c and 16d, open towards the outside of the body in question (figure 4c) .
- respective distributor 18 and collector ducts 20 are associated with said substantially semi-tubular passages 16c and 16d, destined to distribute and respectively collect a heat exchanger operative fluid into and from said internal chamber 16.
- the distributor 18 and collector 20 ducts are cylindrical.
- the internal chamber 16 is in fluid communication with the exterior of the heat exchanger through an inlet opening and an outlet opening for said operative fluid. More precisely, the inlet opening is in fluid communication with the distributor duct 18, while the outlet opening is in fluid communication with the collector duct 20.
- the distributor duct 18 and the collector duct 20 are welded on the substantially semi-tubular passages 16c and 16d, close to respective end tracts 16c' and 16c'' and 16d' and 16d" thereof respectively, which have been appropriately opened wide apart to house said distributor duct 18 and collector duct 20.
- said operative step is performed by an automated welding device which performs autogenous welding, preferably by means of laser beams.
- Said device performs two weldings 24 and 26 on the distributor duct 18 and two weldings 25 and 27 on the collector duct 20, said weldings being continuous and in a longitudinal direction, substantially symmetrical with each other in relation to the symmetric plane A-A of the heat exchanger 10 to be realized.
- the weldings 24 and 26, and respectively, the weldings 25 and 27 are performed along generants of the distributor duct 18 and the collector duct 20 which are substantially symmetrical with each other in relation to the symmetric plane A-A of the heat exchanger 10 to be realized.
- the two weldings 24 and 26, and respectively 25 and 27 define two portions of duct, where the duct portion, which faces the internal chamber 16 where the heat exchange operative fluid flows, presents suitable openings 28 (for example holes) to put the heat exchange operative fluid in fluid communication with the internal chamber 16.
- the two couples of weldings 24 and 26, and respectively the weldings 25 and 27 are diametrically opposite and are parallel to the plates 12 and 14. More precisely, the weldings 24 and 26, and respectively 25 and 27, lay on plane L-L and L' -L' respectively, substantially perpendicular to the plane of symmetry A-A of the heat exchanger 10 to be realized.
- FIG. 5 shows a second embodiment of a plate type heat exchanger, produced according to the method of the invention, said exchanger being identified with the numeral 110.
- the heat exchanger 110 differs from the heat exchanger 10 in that the weldings 24 and 26, and respectively 25 and 27, parallel to the plates 12 and 14, lay on plane X-X and Y-Y, and X' -X' and Y' -Y' respectively, incident to the axis of the distributor duct 18 and the collector duct 20 and forming respective acute angles that are substantially equal ( ⁇ , ⁇ ' ) in relation to the plane L- L and L' -L', to which the axis of the distributor duct 18 and the collector duct 20 belongs.
- the two weldings 24 and 26 are symmetrical in relation to the plane of symmetry A-A of the heat exchanger 110 to be realized, and lay on plane X-X and Y-Y which are symmetrical in relation to the plane of symmetry A-A and which are set at an acute angle ⁇ in relation to the plane L-L, perpendicular to the plane A-A.
- the acute angle ⁇ is between 0° and 50°, according to the diameter of the distributor duct 18 and the collector duct 20.
- the acute angles ⁇ and ⁇ ' are between 10° and 45°.
- the distance between the weldings 24 and 26, and the adjacent alignment of welding tracts 22 is reduced, advantageously providing the heat exchanger 110 with greater mechanical strength.
- the heat exchanger 110 is suitable for use in the majority of the fields of application, including those in which the heat exchanger is subjected to considerable mechanical stress.
- FIG. 6 shows a third embodiment of a heat exchanger produced according to the method of the invention, said exchanger being identified with the numeral 210.
- the structural elements that are identical or operatively equivalent to those of the heat exchanger 10 shown in figure 2 described above, will be identified with the same numerals and will not be described any further.
- the pumping step of the fluid under pressure used to form the hollow body is performed without the complication of the external restraining elements used in the prior art, since it is possible to choose the distance between the weldings of the perimetric sides and the adjacent alignment of the welding tracts, equal to the distance between two alignments of adjacent welding tracts (figure 4a) : in this manner the fluid under pressure swells the "ducts" of the internal chamber and the two substantially tubular passages (figure 4b), in a uniform and simultaneous manner.
- heat exchanger is obtained under easy production conditions and at lower cost compared to heat exchangers according to the prior art.
- heat exchangers can be realized, customized for the use in chemical reactors where there is a great difference in pressure between the exterior and the interior of the heat exchanger itself.
- the distributor duct provides the advantageous effect of making usable for the heat exchange also an initial zone of the internal chamber (in other words, the zone that is in close to said distributor duct) .
- the heat exchange operative fluid is distributed in a uniform and homogeneous manner along the whole side of the heat exchanger where the distributor duct is provided, already at the side in question.
