E. J. SPECA HEAT EXCHANGER July 31, 1962 2 Sheets-Sheet 1 Filed Feb. 21, 1958 United States Patent Ofi 3,647,272 Patented July 31, 1962 ice 1 3,047,272 HEAT EXCHANGER Elio J. Speca, Wellsville, N.Y., assignor, by mesne assignments, to Combustion Engineering, Inc., a corporation of Delaware Filed Feb. 21, 1958, Ser. No. 716,637 7 Claims. (Cl. 257-264) This invention relates generally to heat exchange apparatus and more specifically to a form of regenerative heat exchange apparatus wherein the heat exchange material remains stationary while relatively light flow distributing means is operated to direct hot and cold fluids alternately therethrough.
In modern power plant application the size of the rotary heat exchange device commonly used has steadily increased along with the size of the other steam generating apparatus until it has attained such large proportions that providing suitable support structure for the stationary and rotatable parts has become a diflicult problem. Moreover, as the size of the rotary heat exchange device is increased the sealing relationship between the relatively rotatable parts becomes increasingly critical and even more diflicult to attain. Furthermore, from a standpoint of space utilization the maximum base area of any cylindrical housing disposed in a given rectangular area is but 75% of the area concerned, so that wherever space is at a premium the utilization of rectangular units has a decided advantage.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a regenerative heat exchanger wherein heat exchange material therein remains fixed and only relatively light parts lying at opposite ends thereof are rotated to direct hot and cold fluids alternately therethrough.
It is another object of my invention to provide a regenerative heat exchange device wherein all sealing members are moved at the same relative rate of speed to provide a constant rate of wear of all sealing surfaces.
It is a further object of my invention to provide the benefits of a rotary regenerative heat exchanger to a rectangular unit.
It is another object of my invention to provide a heat exchange device of the type defined having improved flow distribution resulting from a simplified ducting arrangement.
It is still further the object to provide a regenerative type heat exchanger that provides a maximum available element for a given rectangular area.
These and other objects of my invention will become more apparent when read in conjunction with the drawing in which:
FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of a rectangular heat exchanger utilizing flow distribution means as defined in my invention.
FIGURE 2 is a perspective view of the rotary flow distributing means mounted at opposite ends of the heat exchanger.
In the drawing a rectangular housing 10 is divided into a multiplicity of compartments 12 by a series of parallel diaphragms or partitions 14. The compartments thus formed are provided with regenerative heat exchange material of a type that readily absorbs and gives off heat to fluid flowing therethrough, the absorption and rejection of heat taking place alternately and continuously during operation of the device herein defined. At each end of the regenerative material a spacing 16 is provided to permit permanent installation of cleaning apparatus directly adjacent the end faces of heat exchange material to be cleaned.
At each end of housing 10 a series of spaced partition extension members 24 in alignment with housing partitions 14 provide a series of adjacent compartments 18.
The partition extension members are formed in graded lengths, so when arranged symmetrically the end faces thereof terminate in an arcuate surface 26 having apertures that provide for the passage of fluid to and through the regenerative heat exchange material within the housing 10. An imperforate cover plate 28 continuing arcuately from the perforate surface 26 forms therewith a cylindrical duct whose axis extends normal to the flow directing partitions 14. Although the axial length and diameter of the cylindrical duct illustrated is substantially less than that of housing 10, the relative size is not critical and may therefore be Varied considerably Within the scope of this invention.
A pair of support bearings 32 mounted at opposite ends of each cylindrical duct 2628 support the shafts 34 of upper and lower flow distributing means 36 for rotation about their axes within the cylindrical duct.
The flow distributing means 36 at the upper end of of the heat exchange device directs a hot fluid from inlet duct 42 to several of compartments 12 where it gives up heat to the regenerative heat exchange material contained therein. After passing through the regenerative material the then cooled gases flow on to the other flow distributing device where they are directed to a duct 44 for exhaust therefrom. Simultaneously, the lower flow distributing device directs cooler air from inlet 46 to and through the regenerative material lying in the compartments 12 which are not at that time receiving hot gas from inlet 42. After passing through the regenerative material and absorbing heat therefrom the heated air passes through the upper flow distributing means where it is exhausted through outlet 48 to any predetermined point of usage.
An actuating means 52 including a motor and reducing gear is adapted to rotate the spaced flow distributing means reversely and in synchronization by means of a pair of chain drives 54. The upper flow distributing means is rotated one way while the lower one is rotated reversely by means of a geared support 53 to simultaneously provide similar duct connections at opposite ends thereof to sequentially subject the heat exchange material of each compartment to the flow of air and gas. Equivalent mechanical or electronic driving means may be substituted for the means 5 2-54 without materially affecting the operation of the device.
Each flow distributing device 36 comprises essentially a rotor shaft 34 having four or more partitions 56 of trapezoidal form extending radially outward to two axial- 1y spaced annular sealing rings 58 whose diameter is only slightly less than that of cylindrical duct 26-28, whereby the cylindrical member thus formed may be rotated freely about its axis concentrically within the cylindrical duct. A triangular flow deflecting plate 62 is positioned at one end between each pair of partitions 56, circumferentially adjacent plates being positioned at opposite ends of the trapezoidal partitions to provide identically disposed compartments on opposite sides of the rotor post with the compartments therebetween similar but disposed in an axially reversed relationship.
