AIR- COOLED HEAT EXCHANGER CLEANING AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD
20190346222 · 2019-11-14 ·

A method and system for the maintenance and operation of air-cooled heat exchangers in climactic extremes of hot and cold ambient air temperatures which includes the permanent installation of a plurality of spray tubes provided with spaced-apart nozzles positioned between the finned heat exchange tubes and longitudinally aligned within the region of the finned-tube pitch. In one mode of operation, the forced air fan is stopped and temperature-controlled pressurized water with an optional cleaning agent is discharged from the nozzles to dislodge dirt and debris from the finned surfaces while simultaneously cooling the hot process liquid. When high ambient air temperatures preclude the forced air fans from achieving the required cooling of the process liquid passing through the ACHE, refrigerated pressurized cooled water and compressed air in the form of a mist is discharged from the nozzles. When low ambient air temperatures would reduce the temperature of the process liquid to an unacceptable level, pressurized heated air is discharged from the nozzles. Temperature sensors and associated automated programmed control systems can advantageously be employed to adjust the volume and temperature of the respective fluids discharged through the spray nozzles, or the system can be manually controlled by an operator based upon the temperature and pressure of the process fluid discharged from the ACHE.

Heat exchanger

Problem to be Solved To provide a heat exchanger that can increase the performance by setting an optimal number of tube groups in a configuration where each of the tube groups is provided with headers. Solution The number of arrays of tube groups of a core section 2 is set to three rows. The number N of heating medium flow holes 21 per tube is set for each width dimension Tw of tubes 20, and the tubes 20 are formed such that the width dimension Tw of the tubes and a flow channel cross-sectional area S satisfy a relationship of S1SS2. Therefore, the number of arrays of the tube groups in the core section 2 can be set to an optimal number of arrays for improving the endothermic capacity and reducing the weight, and sufficient refrigerant flow rate and pressure resistance can be secured. As a result, even when there is a restriction on the size of the entire heat exchanger, a light high-performance heat exchanger can be configured. This is significantly advantageous when the heat exchanger is used as an evaporator of a vehicle air conditioning apparatus for which a reduction in the weight of the components and an increase in the performance are demanded.
