Abstract:
The invention relates to a tube freeze exchanger particularly for supplying a chill accumulator which facilitates extraction of freeze energy and storage of freeze energy in ice. The exchanger comprises an external tank (1) filled with slurry of ice and water, divided into horizontal sections by means of openwork dividers (11), a system aerating (12) the content of the tank (1) in the bottom zone, and at least one tubular portion (2) submerged in the tank, preferably with a developed internal surface provided with elements in its inside forcing the turbulent flow of the cooling fluid (8, 9, 10), and provided on the outside with longitudinal radiators in form of at least two longitudinal fins (4) placed opposite each other and provided with a metal element connected with an element made of insulation plastic (16), attached to a tubular portion (2) in longitudinal guides, formed on the contact line of at least two external covers put together (5), forming an external divisible shield of a tubular portion (2) with circle or polygon-shaped cross-section, preferably a diamond with a longer vertical diagonal, enclosed with a lock 15, and attached together with a tubular portion (2) on both sides in connecting blocks (6) that poorly conduct freeze energy, provided with pipe connectors, at least on one side of each tubular portion (2) enclosed with external covers there are perforated aeration conduits (7). If gas cooling medium is used with tubular portions (2) of the exchanger connected in parallel, in pipes connecting (17) tubular portions (2) of the exchanger from the side of the inlet and outlet of the cooling medium there are two chambers are mounted on each side (13): inlet and outlet in form of a tube with nozzles (14) in form of cone-shaped openings.
