HEAT EXCHANGE PLANT

FIELD: heat power engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: heat exchange plant comprises hollow vertical cylindrical housing connected with the pipeline for supplying fluid and steam, side inlet branch pipe mounted for permitting supply of heated fluid tangentially with respect to the walls of the housing, outlet branch pipe for discharging heated fluid from the housing, and axial inlet branch pipe for supplying steam connected with the steam pipe coaxially mounted inside the housing and having slots provided with tangential deflectors for inflowing steam into the space of the housing. The side inlet branch pipe for supplying heated fluid is mounted in the bottom section of the housing. The outlet branch pipe is mounted in the top section of the housing. The steam pipe is perforated. The face of the pipe is set in the vicinity to the bottom of the housing and its bottom end is plugged. The tangential deflectors are made of a curved plates. The diameter and density of the holes of the perforations of the steam pipe increase toward the bottom section of the pipe. The slots with tangential deflectors are arranged on the steam pipe in rows. The bottom row is mounted on the plugged end of the steam pipe in the zone of supplying of the heated fluid. The plant could be provided with valves mounted in the inlet branch pipes to provide control of the supply of heated fluid and steam. ^ EFFECT: enhanced efficiency. ^ 3 cl, 1 dwg
