The U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 comprises an inner tube 31, an arc-shaped tube 32 and an outer tube 33 which are sequentially connected, the inner tube 31 of the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 is positioned on the inner side of the heat exchanger body 20 in the radial direction, the outer tube 33 of the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 is positioned on the outer side of the heat exchanger body 20 in the radial direction, the arc-shaped tube 32 is connected with the inner tube 31 and the outer tube 33, working media in the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 are reversed, and the working media flow in the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 along the longitudinal direction of the heat exchanger body 20.

In this embodiment, a sodium-cooled fast reactor heat source is adopted to perform heat transfer with a working medium of a heat engine, and the flow characteristic of liquid sodium is good, so that liquid sodium can realize a relatively high heat exchange coefficient by adopting longitudinal flow, therefore, a liquid inlet 201 of liquid sodium is arranged at the top of the heat exchanger body 20, a liquid outlet 202 of liquid sodium is arranged at the bottom of the heat exchanger body 20, and after the liquid sodium enters the heat exchanger body 20 from the top of the heat exchanger body 20, the liquid sodium flows from top to bottom, the flow form is good, so that the heat exchange coefficients of the inner pipe 31 and the outer pipe 33 are similar, and the longitudinal flow inside and outside the pipe is basically consistent, the thermal resistance is small, and further the heat exchange efficiency is improved.
As is known to all, when the heat exchange tube is too long, the heat exchange area is large, but the useless volume in the tube is large, so that the heat exchange performance is influenced; the heat exchange tube is not long, though the useless volume ratio is less in the pipe, but the heat transfer area is little, can influence heat transfer performance equally, consequently, can't improve heat transfer performance through the length that excessively increases the heat exchange tube, and U type heat exchange tube 30 can neither too long, also can not too short, and in this embodiment, the length of single U type heat exchange tube 30 is 250 ~ 350 mm. In addition, U type heat exchange tube 30's pipe diameter also can not be too big or too little, and the pipe diameter is too big, and heat exchange efficiency is too low, and the pipe diameter is too little, and the quantity of the heat exchange tube that needs to arrange increases, arranges the space and does not allow, and the welding degree of difficulty increases, and in this embodiment, U type heat exchange tube 30's pipe diameter is 2 ~ 6 mm.
This embodiment is through letting the heat transfer coefficient of inner tube side and outer tube side more balanced, makes the heat transfer coefficient of inner tube side and outer tube side improve simultaneously, improves heat transfer performance as far as possible through improving heat transfer coefficient, rather than the unlimited increase heat transfer area increases heat transfer capacity. The heat exchange coefficient is related to the flowing performance of liquid, the flowing characteristic of liquid sodium is good, the longitudinal flow of the liquid sodium can be kept consistent basically, the thermal resistance is small, the heat exchange coefficient is high, and the circulation efficiency of the heat engine is improved under the condition that the heat exchange area is not large enough.
Referring to fig. 1, the working process of the heat exchanger of the heat engine for the sodium-cooled fast reactor in this embodiment is as follows:
in fig. 1, an arrow indicates a working medium flowing direction, and the working medium flows back and forth under the action of a piston of the thermomotor. In the first flow direction, the working medium flows into the first connecting pipe 40 from the first through hole 111 in the central region 11 of the working medium cylinder 10 along the arrow F1, then enters the inner pipe 31 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, is changed in direction by the arc pipe 32 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, flows through the outer pipe 33 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, and then enters the annular region 12 of the working medium cylinder 10 through the second connecting pipe 50, and the outflow direction is shown as the arrow F2. The second flow direction is that after the first heat exchange is completed, the flow direction of the working medium is reversed under the action of the piston of the heat engine, the working medium flows into the second connecting pipe 50 from the second through hole 121 of the annular area 12 of the working cylinder 10, then enters the outer pipe 33 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, is changed by the arc pipe 32 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, flows through the inner pipe 31 of the U-shaped heat exchange pipe 30, and then enters the central area 11 of the working medium cylinder 10 through the first connecting pipe 40, so that the first complete reciprocating flow is completed.
The direction indicated by the arrow F3 is a liquid sodium flowing direction, the liquid sodium enters the heat exchanger body 20 from the liquid inlet 201 at the top of the heat exchanger body 20, and flows out from the liquid outlet 202 on the side wall of the heat exchanger body 20 after flowing heat exchange inside the heat exchanger body 20 and outside the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30, and the flowing direction is indicated by an arrow F3.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, the heat exchanger body 20 includes a housing 21 and a flow equalizing chamber 22, the bottom of the housing 21 is open, the flow equalizing chamber 22 is disposed at the opening of the bottom of the housing 21, a liquid inlet 201 is disposed at the top of the housing 21, a liquid outlet 202 is disposed at the side of the flow equalizing chamber 22, and a third through hole 203 and a fourth through hole 204 are disposed on the flow equalizing chamber 22.
The shell 21 and the flow equalizing chamber 22 are welded together by argon arc welding, the shell 21 is a container with a hollow interior and an opening at the bottom, and the flow equalizing chamber 22 is arranged at the bottom of the shell 21. The bottom of the shell 21 is provided with a flow equalizing chamber 22, which can ensure the flow uniformity of the liquid sodium at the bottom of the shell 21.
The flow equalizing chamber 22 is disc-shaped, the flow equalizing chamber 22 extends to the outside of the casing 21 along the radial direction, an annular flow channel 221 arranged along the circumferential direction of the flow equalizing chamber 21 is arranged in a region of the flow equalizing chamber 22 extending to the outside of the casing 21, a plurality of through holes 211 are arranged on the side wall of the casing 21 at intervals, and the through holes 211 and the liquid outlet 202 are respectively communicated with the annular flow channel 221.
The outer diameter of the flow equalizing chamber 22 is larger than the outer diameter of the casing 21, and the annular flow passage 221 is disposed in the flow equalizing chamber 22 and located outside the casing 21, that is, the inner diameter of the annular flow passage 221 is larger than the outer diameter of the casing 21. The annular flow channel 221 is a full circle of annular grooves arranged along the circumferential direction of the flow equalizing chamber 22, a plurality of through holes 211 are arranged on the side wall of the casing 21 at intervals along the circumferential direction, and when liquid sodium flows to the bottom of the casing 21 (the upper end surface of the flow equalizing chamber 22), the liquid sodium can enter the annular flow channel 221 through the through holes 211 and then is discharged from the liquid outlet 202. Because the liquid outlet 202 is disposed at one side of the flow equalizing chamber 22, if the annular flow channel 221 is not disposed, the liquid sodium at the bottom of the housing 21 will flow unevenly, and the liquid sodium at one side close to the liquid outlet 202 is more and the liquid sodium at the other side is less. After the through holes 211 are uniformly spaced, the liquid sodium flows into the annular flow channel 221 from the through holes 211 which are uniformly spaced, and then flows out from the liquid outlet 202 which is communicated with the annular flow channel 221, so that the flow of the liquid sodium is relatively uniform.
Preferably, as shown in FIG. 1, the bottom of the via 211 is flush with the upper surface of the flow equalization chamber 22. When the liquid sodium flows to the upper surface of the flow equalizing chamber 22, because the bottom of the through hole 211 is flush with the upper surface of the flow equalizing chamber 22, the liquid sodium on the upper surface of the flow equalizing chamber 22 can enter the annular flow channel 221 through the through hole 211, and the liquid sodium is prevented from being deposited on the upper surface of the flow equalizing chamber 22.

Two adjacent inner tubes 31 stagger the setting, can set up U type heat exchange tube 30 as far as, increase U type heat exchange tube 30's quantity, and then improve heat exchange efficiency.
Adaptively, as shown in fig. 2, a plurality of first through holes 111 arranged on the central region 11 of the working medium cylinder 10 are distributed on two circumferences with different diameters, and a plurality of second through holes 121 are distributed on one circumference, so that a plurality of inner tubes 31 and a plurality of first through holes 111 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence manner, and further, the inner tubes 31 and the first through holes 111 are located on the same straight line, thereby avoiding increasing the length of the connecting tube.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, the top of the working medium cylinder 10 is arc-shaped and the convex portion is disposed toward the heat exchanger body 20, and the central region 11 is located at the convex portion of the working medium cylinder 10. Because the pressure of the helium working medium in the working medium cylinder 10 is very high, up to dozens of megapascals, and the temperature is also very high, up to 400 ℃, the top of the working medium cylinder 10 is arranged to be arc-shaped, the stress on the top of the working medium cylinder 10 can be reduced, and the working medium cylinder 10 is prevented from being damaged.
The top of working medium barrel 10 is the arc, if working medium barrel 10 and heat exchanger body 20 are not coaxial setting, so when U type heat exchange tube 30 is connected with working medium barrel 10, there is some U type heat exchange tube 30 far away from the top of working medium barrel 10, leads to the connecting pipe ratio long, can influence the performance of heat engine, consequently, with the coaxial setting of working medium barrel 10 and heat exchanger body 20, can improve the performance of heat engine.
In some embodiments, the U-shaped heat exchange tube 30 is connected to the heat exchanger body 20 by brazing, the first connection tube 40 and the second connection tube 50 are respectively connected to the heat exchanger body 20 by brazing, and the first connection tube 40 and the second connection tube 50 are respectively connected to the working medium cylinder 10 by brazing.
Because the temperature of the working medium side can reach 400 ℃, the pressure can reach 13MPa, and the sealing effect of the connecting pipe and the heating pipe can be effectively ensured through brazing. The working medium cylinder 10 and the connecting pipe need to bear working medium pressure of 400 ℃ and 13MPa and thermal stress generated by temperature difference between 550 ℃ liquid sodium and 400 ℃, so that the working medium cylinder 10 needs to be made of high-strength high-temperature alloy materials.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
