Description
Technical Field

Background
The cooling tower (The cooling tower) is a device that uses water as a circulating coolant to absorb heat from a system and release it to the atmosphere to reduce the circulating water temperature.
The existing cooling towers are divided into an open cooling tower and a closed cooling tower according to whether circulating water is in contact with air or not. Wherein, the closed cooling tower is an evaporative cooling tower, circulating water flows through the circulating pipe, air flows through the outside of the circulating pipe, and the two cooling towers are not contacted with each other. The water in the reservoir at the bottom of the tower is pumped by the circulating pump and then is sent to the outside of the circulating pipe to be uniformly sprayed. The spray water exchanges heat with the circulating water in the circulating pipe through convection, evaporates on the surface of the circulating pipe to cool the circulating water in the circulating pipe, and reduces the temperature in the cooling tower.
As the heat exchange is continuously performed, the water temperature of the shower water gradually increases, resulting in a decrease in cooling efficiency of the cooling tower. In order to reduce the temperature of the spray water, some cooling towers are also provided with a spray water cooling module, and the temperature of the spray water is reduced by driving the spray water to circulate and exchange heat with ambient air. However, the spray water cooling module generally needs to additionally add a pipeline and a water pump, so that the occupied area of the cooling tower is obviously increased, and the construction cost and the operation cost of the cooling tower are increased.

In order to solve the technical problems of large occupied area, high equipment cost and high operation cost of a spray water cooling module of a cooling tower in the prior art, the application provides the cooling tower and a cooler 5, wherein the cooler 5 can strengthen the cooling of spray water by means of cooling air sent into a tower body 20; and compared with the traditional spray water cooling module, the cooler 5 can obviously reduce the occupied area and reduce the equipment cost and the operation cost.
It is noted that the circulating water in the present application refers to water which circulates in the circulating water heat exchanger 3 and is cooled; the spray water or spray cooling water or cooling water is water sprayed to the surface of the circulating water heat exchanger 3, and the circulating water heat exchanger 3 exchanges heat with the circulating water in a convection way, and circulates between the spray assembly and the water collector 8, and the cooling air is air flow which is sent into the tower body 20 to cool the spray water and the circulating water and promote evaporation of the spray water. In the normal operation process of the cooling tower, the circulating water is not in direct contact with the spray water and the cooling air.
As shown in fig. 1 to 5, the cooler 5 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a cooler body 51, where the cooler body 51 includes a connection bracket 512 and a plurality of layers of guide rings 511 horizontally stacked from inside to outside according to a certain gap, and the connection bracket 512 plays a role in connecting and fixing all the guide rings 511; all the guide rings 511 are substantially in the same horizontal plane, so that the axial dimension of the cooler body 51 along the guide rings 511 is significantly reduced, and the space occupation of the cooler body 51 and the cooler 5 is reduced. Each layer of guide ring 511 from inside to outside is in an annular tapered arrangement, specifically, the guide ring 511 has an annular first end and an annular second end, the first end and the second end are substantially identical in shape, and the first end and the second end of the guide ring 511 are connected through a guide inclined plane. The guide rings 511 taper from the first end to the second end, and gaps between the guide inclined surfaces of the guide rings 511 of adjacent layers form ventilation openings, which taper along the direction from the first end to the second end of the guide rings 511. The first end of the ventilation opening is used for introducing cooling air, and the second end of the ventilation opening is used for receiving spray water.
The first end of the vent refers to the end of the vent near the first end of the baffle ring 511, and the second end of the vent refers to the end of the vent near the second end of the baffle ring 511. The plurality of guide rings 511 are horizontally stacked, and all the guide rings 511 are substantially in the same horizontal plane layer specifically means: the first ends of all deflector rings 511 are located at or approximately at the same level and the second ends of all deflector rings 511 are located at or approximately at the same level. Referring to fig. 9 in combination, the cooler 5 may be applied to a cooling tower to cool spray water. The cooler 5 is arranged below the circulating water heat exchanger 3 in the cooling tower body 20 when in use, and is arranged towards the circulating water heat exchanger 3 by the second end surface of the ventilation opening, namely towards the top of the tower body 20; with the first end of the vent opening facing the direction of delivery of the cooling wind, i.e. towards the bottom of the tower 20. It should be noted that the air inlet 6 of the tower 20 is located below the first end of the air vent, i.e. the bottom of the cooler 5 is at least higher than the air inlet 6 of the tower 20.
When cooling the circulating water, the cooling tower sprays cooling water towards the surface of the circulating water heat exchanger 3 by means of the spraying assembly, the sprayed cooling water exchanges heat with the circulating water flowing in the circulating water heat exchanger 3 in a convection way through the circulating water heat exchanger 3, part of spraying water evaporates and absorbs heat on the surface of the circulating water heat exchanger 3, cooling of the circulating water is enhanced, and meanwhile, the temperature in the tower body 20 is reduced. Most of the spray water flows through the surface of the circulating water heat exchanger 3 and falls down to the water collector 8 at the bottom of the tower body 20 under the action of gravity. The cooler 5 arranged below the circulating water heat exchanger 3 can receive the falling spray water, and the spray water enters the ventilation opening from the second end of the ventilation opening of the cooler 5 and slowly slides down along the diversion inclined plane.
The cooling air is sent into the tower body 20 from the air inlet 6 at the bottom of the tower body 20 and flows upwards from bottom to top along the tower body 20, so that when flowing through the circulating water heat exchanger 3, the cooling air exchanges heat with circulating water flowing in the circulating water heat exchanger 3 in a countercurrent manner through the circulating water heat exchanger 3, and meanwhile, the cooling air exchanges heat with spray water in a countercurrent manner, so that a certain cooling effect on the spray water is achieved, and the cooling air can also promote the evaporation and heat absorption of the spray water on the surface of the circulating water heat exchanger 3 and in the tower body 20. Because the cooler 5 is arranged below the circulating water heat exchanger 3, the cooling air firstly flows through the cooler 5 when flowing upwards to the circulating water heat exchanger 3, enters the ventilation opening through the first end of the ventilation opening of the cooler 5, exchanges heat with the spray water sliding along the diversion inclined plane, and reduces the temperature of the spray water.
Because the vent sets up to the structure from first end to second end convergent, air can produce throttle and pressure drop when the convergent vent of flowing through, makes cooling air temperature reduce to some extent to increase the heat transfer difference with the shower water that the water conservancy diversion inclined plane falls, strengthen the convection heat transfer with between the shower water, reduce the temperature of shower water. The flow guiding inclined plane can delay the falling speed of the spray water, prolong the heat exchange time of the spray water and the cooling air when flowing through the ventilation opening, increase the heat exchange quantity of the cooling air and the spray water, further reduce the temperature of the spray water, further strengthen the heat exchange between the spray water and the circulating water, and improve the cooling efficiency of the cooling tower.
The cooler 5 can be installed in the tower body 20 of the cooling tower, and the temperature of the spray water is reduced by enhancing the heat exchange between cooling air and the spray water, so that the extra occupied area is not increased, and a power part such as a water pump is not required to drive the spray water to circularly cool. The setting of cooler 5 has only increased the air supply resistance of cooling wind to a certain extent, has reduced area, has reduced equipment cost and operation energy consumption for traditional shower water cooling module that utilizes pipeline and water pump to shower water circulation cooling to reduce running cost.
In some embodiments, the cross section of the guide ring 511 is circular, that is, the guide ring 511 is integrally formed with a cylindrical structure with a diameter gradually decreasing from its first end to its second end, and the connecting bracket 512 includes at least a first bracket and a second bracket, where the first bracket and the second bracket preferably adopt a rib structure extending along the radial direction of the guide ring 511, and the first bracket and the second bracket are both connected to all the guide rings 511. The first and second brackets are generally disposed perpendicular to each other, i.e., the first and second brackets uniformly divide the annular vent opening between adjacent layers of baffle rings 511 into four sets of fan ring structures. The connecting bracket 512 can be further provided with a third bracket or even a fourth bracket according to the requirement, and the connecting bracket can be flexibly arranged according to the requirement of the connecting fixing strength between the adjacent layer of the flow guiding rings 511.
It is understood that the cross-section of baffle ring 511 is not limited to a circular configuration, but may be circular, oval, elliptical, or even other irregular shapes, as long as a vent tapering from a first end to a second end can be formed between baffle rings 511 of adjacent layers. The advantage of the regular circular cross section of the deflector ring 511 is that it facilitates the shaping of the cooler 5 and the uniform intake of the vents.
Further, the diversion inclined plane is also provided with a hydrophilic layer. When the diversion slope of the diversion ring 511 is provided with a hydrophilic layer, as shown in fig. 8, the sprayed water drops are easier to spread on the surface of the diversion slope, the included angle between the tangential direction of the outer outline of the water drops and the guiding slope outside the water drops is larger (larger than 90 degrees, as shown in fig. 8, 100.35 degrees), and a plurality of water drops are easy to form a liquid film layer on the surface, so that the convection heat exchange area of spray water and cooling air is increased, and the heat exchange between the cooling air and the spray water is enhanced. Compared with the flow guiding inclined plane without the hydrophilic layer, the spray water is easier to form a liquid drop shape on the flow guiding inclined plane rather than spread out, the included angle between the water drop and the surface of the flow guiding inclined plane is smaller (47.97 degrees as shown in fig. 7), and a plurality of water drops are not easy to form a liquid film layer on the surface, so that the water drops are easy to slide down and the convection heat exchange area of the spray water and cooling wind is reduced, and the heat exchange effect of the spray water and the cooling wind is poorer than that of the flow guiding inclined plane with the hydrophilic layer.
In some embodiments, the circumference of the diversion slope is further connected with a diversion rib plate, the diversion rib plate extends along the direction from the first end of the diversion ring 511 to the second end of the diversion ring 511, and the distance between the adjacent diversion rib plates is gradually reduced from the first end of the diversion ring 511 to the second end. Illustratively, the flow guiding rib plates are disposed on the flow guiding inclined plane of the outer periphery of the flow guiding ring 511 of each layer, the flow guiding rib plates of the outer periphery of the same flow guiding ring 511 divide the annular tapered ventilation opening of the outer periphery of the flow guiding ring 511 into a plurality of ventilation sub-openings, the radial dimension of the ventilation sub-openings along the flow guiding ring 511 is tapered from the first end of the flow guiding ring 511 to the second end of the flow guiding ring 511, and the circumferential dimension of the ventilation sub-openings along the flow guiding ring 511 is also tapered from the first end of the flow guiding ring 511 to the second end of the flow guiding ring 511. The arrangement of the flow guide rib plates divides the annular tapered ventilation opening into a plurality of ventilation sub-openings, which is favorable for uniformly dispersing cooling air and spray water drops, further reduces the air temperature of the cooling air through throttling, increases the temperature difference between the cooling air and spray water, strengthens the convection heat exchange effect of the cooling air and spray water on the flow guide inclined plane, and further reduces the temperature of the spray water.
Referring to fig. 1, 6 and 10 in combination, the cooler 5 further includes a fixing bracket 52 provided at an outer periphery of the cooler body 51 for mounting and fixing the cooler body 51 into the cooling tower. Illustratively, the fixing bracket 52 may be a circular plate, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected with the guide ring 511 on the outermost layer of the cooler body 51, and the outer wall of which is provided with a plurality of fixing buckles 521, so as to fix the cooler 5 relative to the cooling tower by matching the fixing buckles 521 with the fixing slots 201 formed on the inner wall surface of the cooling tower.
In some embodiments, in order to enhance the heat exchange effect of the cooling wind and the shower water at the cooler 5, the cooler body 51 may be provided not only in a plurality of groups side by side but also in a plurality of layers stacked in the axial direction of the deflector ring 511. When the cooler body 51 is provided in multiple layers in the axial direction of the guide ring 511, a fixing bracket 52 may be provided at the outermost layer of the cooler body 51 of each layer. While supporting bars may be provided between the cooler bodies 51 of the adjacent layers in order to maintain the spacing between the cooler bodies 51 of the adjacent layers and the overall strength of the cooler 5. In order not to affect the flow of cooling air, and to reduce the interference of the support rods with the ventilation openings, the support rods are typically connected between the outermost deflector rings 511 of the cooler body 51.
