TUBE WALL OF GAS INLET OR GAS OUTLET CHAMBER OF HEAT EXCHANGE SECTION OF APPARATUS FOR AIR COOLING OF GAS

FIELD: heat and power engineering, namely tube walls of inlet or outlet chambers of apparatus for air cooling of gas or section of such apparatus. ^ SUBSTANCE: tube plate of chamber of gas inlet or gas outlet of heat exchange section of apparatus for air cooling of gas includes plate in the form of parallelepiped, mainly right-angled one. Said plate includes system of through openings for ends of heat exchange tubes of tube bundle. Said openings are arranged by rows along height of wall at pitch of their axes in row being in range (1.7 - 3.4) d; at pitch of rows along height of wall being in range (1.6 - 3.4)d where d - diameter of openings. Said openings are shifted in adjacent rows by value 0.35 -0.65 of pitch in row. Projection of surface area of wall carcass onto mean plane of tube wall exceeds by 4 - 12.5 times projection of total surface area of voids of wall on the same plane. Portion of continuous cross section is arranged along perimeter of tube wall for forming rigidity band of tube wall. Surface area of rigidity band consists 16.0 - 45.0% of tube wall surface area. ^ EFFECT: enhanced strength, lowered metal consumption of construction due to optimal parameters of tube wall. ^ 10 cl, 3 dwg
