Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A heat exchanger is described which is adapted for use with a regenerative type gas turbine engine.
  • the heat exchanger comprises a stack of annular disc plates which are joined in bellows fashion. Inlet and exit plenums extend longitudinally of the stack.
  • the plates define alternate flow paths respectively for radial flow of the hot gas discharge outwardly from the center of the stack and for cross flow of pressurized air from the inlet to exit plenums.
  • Alternate plates are provided with flow path defining corrugations formed both radially, in a general sense, and cross wise, generally concentric of the discs.
  • the remaining plates have generally radially extending, flow paths defining corrugations.
  • the radial corrugations of all plates are curved to be generally concentric of the curved sides of the inlet and exit plenums which are respectively triangular and elliptical in cross section.
  • the present invention relates broadly to heat exchangers and more particularly to improvements in plate type heat exchangers.
  • Heat exchangers for regenerative type engines not only require a high rate of heat transfer, but also require a minimum impedence or pressure loss to the flow of the pressurized air and the hot gas streams therethrough. Otherwise, excessive pressure drops in either or both of the fluid flow paths could cause losses which more than offset the theoretical gains to be de rived from the regenerative cycle.
  • Another factor of concern in such heat exchangers is the wide range of temperatures encountered in cyclic operation and the resultant stresses that are induced in the component parts of the heat exchanger.
  • Another area of concern in heat exchangers for regenerative type engines, particularly engines utilized for 'the propulsion of aircraft is the need for a lightweight construction as well as a configuration having a minimum space envelope.
  • Plate type heat exchangers while having other applications, have been found particularly effective in fulfilling the needs described above for regenerative type gas turbine engines.
  • a particularly effective heat exchanger of this type is disclosed in US. Pat. No. 3,424,240.
  • a stack of corrugated plates in the form of annular discs, define a central entrance for the hot gas discharge of the turbine engine. From this central entrance, thehot gasses pass radially outwardly between alternate pairs of plates to a discharge duct. Pressurized air from the engine compressor flows into inlet plenums extending longitudinally of the stack of plates, through cross flow paths between the plates, to exit plenums, also extending longitudinally of the stack of plates and then back to the combustor of the engine.
  • One object of the invention is to increase the overall effectiveness of stacked plate type heat exchangers of the general configuration referenced above, and in so doing, to particularly combine a high rate of heat transfer with a low impedence to fluid flow in a compact, rugged, lightweight construction.
  • Another and broader object of the invention is to improve the effectiveness of plate type heat exchangers and particularly to increase the rate of heat transfer capabilities thereof as well as reducing the pressure drops of fluid flows therethrough and further to decrease the induced stresses imposed thereon during operation.
  • a heat exchanger which includes a relatively thin plate defining on its op- 2 posite sides, opposed portions of flow paths for first and second fluids.
  • This plate is characterized by having first and second series of corrugations with one series being cross corrugations generally at right angles to the other.
  • the heat exchanger preferably, further includes a pair of plates disposed on opposite sides of the first plate and respectively defining the opposite bounds of the two fluid flow paths.
  • the second plates also have a series of corrugations which are of the same spacing as and aligned with one of the series of corrugations of the first plate. Further, the corrugations of the second plates are out of phase with corrugations of the first plate to define flow paths having longitudinal and cross sections which vary in area. Further, it is advantageous that one of the series of corrugations of the first plate have a lesser height than the other series of cross corrugations thereof and that the corrugations of the second plates are generally aligned with the lower series of corrugations of the first plate.
  • a plurality of first and second plates are formed as annular discs and are arranged in stacked relationship to define alternate flow paths for the first and second liquids.
  • longitudinal inlet and exit plenums may be provided through the plates for the introduction and discharge of the first liquid.
  • the inlet plenum would receive pressurized compressor air and the exit plenum .would discharge air to the combustor of the engine after the air passes through cross flow, heat exchange flow paths between alternate pairs of plates.
  • the second fluid would be the hot gas discharge of the engine which passes through flow paths radial of the stacked discs.
  • the second plates in disc form, have series of corrugations between adjacent plenums which extend, generally, in a radial direction.
  • the first series of corrugations of the first plates also extend radially between adjacent plenums, while the higher, cross corrugations are formed generally concentric of the discs and engage the second plate corrugations on opposite sides.
  • first and second plates may have flanges peripherally of their inner and outer diameters.
  • the flanges of the first plates project in one axial direction and the flanges of the second plates project in the opposite direction in matching relationship with flanges of the adjacent plates.
  • These matching flanges are respectively joined to complete the cross flow paths for the pressurized air.
  • the longitudinal plenums may be defined by openings in the first and second plates. The surfaces of the adjacent first and second plates, opposite of the joined plenums thereof, may be joined peripherally of such openings so that the stack of plates becomes a bellows.
  • Another preferred feature is found in providing radial corrugations adjacent the plenum openings which direct air flow laterally to an entrance chamber for radial flow through a primary heat transfer zone and then to a discharge chamber leading to the exit plenum.
  • Cross corrugations of a lesser height as well as the reduced height radial corrugations are formed in the first plates in the areas of these chambers to facilitate cross flow with a maximum heat transfer.
  • each inlet plenum with a generally triangular cross section and each exit plenum with a'generally elliptical cross section having its major axis extending in a radial direction.
  • the generally radial corrugations of the first and second plates are then formed generally concentrically of the adjacent sides of the plenums.
  • This feature of the invention may also be utilized in combination with first plates having other forms of corrugations.

  • the engine itself, may be of conventional construction in accordance with well known designs for regenerative type engines.
  • the hot gas discharge of the engine enters the center of the heat exchanger 10 and then is directed radially outwardly, through a stack of plates 11, to an exhaust system which includes a surrounding duct 12.
  • the heat exchanger 10 comprises an adaptor frame 14, which may be attached to a frame member of the engine.
  • the adaptor frame 14 has a plurality of passageways 16 and 18 which respectively connect with engine passageways (not shown) leading from the engines compressor and leading to the engines combustor.
  • the compressor passageways 16 are aligned with a plurality of inlet plenums 20, see also FIG. 3, formed longitudinally through the stack of plates 11.
  • the combustor passageways 18 are aligned with a plurality of exit plenums 22 also extending longitudinally through the stack of plates 11.
  • Cross flow paths between adjacent plenums 20 and 22 provide the primary heat exchange between the radially flowing hot gas discharge and the pressurized compressor air. These cross flow and radial flow paths will presently be described in detail.
  • the heat exchanger 10 further comprises an end frame 24 and an end plate 26, which define the downstream limit of the hot gas discharge flow path so that all of the hot gasses may be turned radially outwardly through the stack of plates 11 and discharged through the exhaust system.
  • the stack of plates 11, FIG. 3, comprises a series of alternately arranged plates 11a and 11b, which are identical in outline and differ primarily in the flow path defining corrugations formed therein.
  • the plates 11a and 11b are in the form of annular discs having inner and outer flanges 28 and 29.
  • the flanges of the plates 11a project in one axial direction and the flanges of the plates 1111 project in the opposite axial direction (FIGS. 2 and 4).
  • Successive pairs of plates 11a and 11b are thus disposed with their flanges 28 and29 in face-toface relation.
  • These matching flanges are seam welded or otherwise joined around their full circumferences.
  • the pairs of plates, thus joined, define the bounds of the cross flow paths between plenums 20 and 22.
  • the plenums 20 and 22 comprise aligned openings 20a, 20b and 22a, 22b, formed in the plates 11a and 11b respectively.
  • the surfaces of plates 11a and 11b facing outwardly of the flange welds are joined, as by welding, peripherally of the openings 22a, 22b, and 20a, 20b, FIGS. 2 and 5.
  • the stack of plates 11 is thus joined in fashion. fashion
  • the pairs of plates 11a and 11b define alternate flow paths for the pressurized air and the hot gas discharge as well as the plenums 20 and 22.
  • the stack of plates 11 may further be formed as a series of substacks as taught in US. Pat. No. 3,385,353. With such an arrangement, and as indicated in FIGS.
  • a selected number of plates 11a and 11b are joined as just described and their opposite ends are secured to somewhat thicker intermediate plates 30 which have openings corresponding to the openings 20a, 20b, and 22a, 22b, and which further have positioning lugs, that are located by rods 32 extending the full length of the stack 1 1.
  • the openings 22a and 22b are generally elliptical and that the openings 20a and 20b are generally triangular and that the adjacent sides of each opening 20 and 22 are similarly curved, or generally concentric. This relationship, maximizes the heat transfer area of the discs and minimizes the overall volume, or space envelope, of the heat exchanger, when coupled with correspondly curved corrugations in the plates 11a and 11b as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
  • each of the plates 11a has a series of corrugations 34 between adjacent openings 20a and 22a.
  • the corrugations are generally sinusoidial or what will herein be referenced as regular wave-form.
  • the wave form corrugations 34 extend, generally radially, from theinner flange 28 to the outer flange 29 and are further curved, to correspond to the curvature of the sides of the openings 20a and 22b between which they extend.
  • Each plate 11b is corrugated in a more involved fashion. First, there are flow path defining corrugations 36 and 38 which extend marginally of the openings 22b and 20b respectively.
  • the corrugations 36 and 38 are curved similarly to the wave-form corrugations 34 and are "out of phase therewith so as to sealingly engage matching corrugations 34 respectively adjacent the openings 22a and 20a.

  • the corrugations 38, on opposite sides of each inlet plenum 20a extend outwardly from the inner flange 28b and terminate in spaced relationship from the outer flange 29b.
  • corrugations 40 Between the corrugations 36 and 38, is a series of corrugations 40 of an intermediate height, which have a similar curvature to the curvature of the corrugations 34, are of the same spacing and also out of phase therewith. It will also be seen that the series of corrugations 40 extend from the inner flange 28b to the outer flange29b. Further, there is a series of cross corrugations 42 extending between the co-extensive portions of the corrugations 36 and 38. The corrugations 42, generally at right angles to the corrugations 40, are generally concentric of the axis of the discs 11 and have a spacing generally matching that of the corrugations 40.
  • the heighth of the cross corrugations 42 matches that of the corrugations 36 and 38, so that there is a grid of engagement points between the corrugations 34 and 42 within the boundary defined by the co-extensive portions of the corrugations 36 and 38, herein referenced as a zone of primary heat transfer.
  • inlet and exit chambers which have a waffle type surface formed by the intermediate corrugations 40 and cross corrugations 44 which are of thesame intermediate height.
  • the described configuration of the plates Ila and llb defines cross flow paths from one inlet plenum 1.20 to the adjacent exit plenums 22 on either side thereof.
  • the outer grid work of the intermediate height corrugations 40 and 44 form a lateral entranch chamber defined at the left hand end thereof by the linear engagement between the corrugation 36 and its matching .corrugation 34.
  • the cross flow path extends radially inwardly between the co-extensive portions of the corrugations 36 and 38, forming a zone of primary heat transfer, and then through a discharge chamber similar to the entry chamber described above except that the opening thereof directs the air towards the plenum 22.
  • the'cross flow path described provides throughout its length, a varying cross sectional area and longitudinal sectional area which minimizes the boundary layers and thus increases the rate of heat transfer. Further, it will be noted that in the grid of corrugations in the primary heat transfer zone, between the co-extensive areas of corrugations 36 and 38, the variations in the flow path area become more pronounced for greater heat transfer effectiveness. This is opposed to the entry and exit chambers which, while providing flow area variation, also facilitate lateral flow of the air to facilitate its entry and discharge from the primary area.
  • FIG. 4 the corrugations to the right of the opening 20b between the next adjacent opening 22 would define the same series of an entry chamber, primary exchange zone and discharge chamber as described above.
  • the air, from the inlet plenum 20 enters the outer corner of the grid work and flows radially inwardly. This is to say that air passing through the plenum 20 has a split cross flow :path to both of the adjacent plenums 22 and similarly both of the plenums 22 receives cross flow from the plenums 20 on either side thereof, as is also indicated in FIG. 3.
  • Plates Ila and 1 1b are illustrated as they define a portion of the radial flow path for the hot gas discharge through the stack of plates.
  • the corrugations 34 also form a grid of contact points with the cross corrugations 42, in the plate llb, to form a flow path for the hot gas discharge (see also FIGS. 61 I) which varies greatly in area from the inner circumference from the plates 11a and llb to the outer circumference thereof.
  • the described corrugations of the plates 11a and 11b contribute to the overall efficiency of the heat exchanger in that the spring effect, or resilience, of these corrugated plates minimizes induced stresses in the plates which are inherent in any operation in a high temperature environment as described. This is to say that in a cyclic operation of the engine heat exchanger, the plates llu and llb will contract and expand exerting compressive forces on the plates themselves which vary in magnitude during operational cycles. The resultant low stresses achieved enable, for a given plate material, use of thinner section material which further contributes to the efficiency of heat transfer. The ability to utilize thinner section material for the plates llu and llb also minimizes the overall weight heat exchanger, to the end that its incorporation in a gas turbine engine used for the propulsion of aircraft becomes more efficient in that the overall aircraft system.
