RECUPERADOR DE CALOR  HEAT RECOVERY

CAMPO DE LA INVENCIÓN  FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención pertenece al ámbito de los calentadores de agua y las ¡ calderas de vapor de tubos de humo, para uso residencial comercial e industrial y consiste en un recuperador de calor que no requiere baffles en su interior; porque puede recuperar el calor de los gases de combustión, con sus paredes únicamente. The present invention belongs to the field of water heaters and steam boilers of smoke pipes, for commercial and industrial residential use and consists of a heat recuperator that does not require baffles inside; because it can recover the heat of combustion gases, with its walls only.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Actualmente en los calentadores de agua y en las calderas de vapor de tubos de humo, se utilizan diversos baffles fabricados con lámina, para recuperar el calor de los gases de combustión en el interior de los tubos de humo y aun así no seAt the moment in the water heaters and in the steam boilers of smoke pipes, various baffles made of foil are used, to recover the heat of the flue gases inside the smoke pipes and even so

> alcanza la eficiencia térmica que se requiere en los calentadores y calderas de la actualidad; un ejemplo de los baffles que más se usan actualmente en el interior de los tubos de humo, son los siguientes: El que se describe en la patente No 5,787,846 de los EE.UU. Otro ejemplo es el que se describe en la patente No 5, 544,625 de los EE.UU. Un ejemplo más aún, es el que se describe en la patente i No 4, 327,671 también de los EE.UU. Los baffles de las invenciones ya mencionadas, además de que su uso implica un costo adicional, son ineficaces porque no están enfriados por ningún fluido y por ello siempre se encuentran a muy alta temperatura durante el funcionamiento de los calentadores y calderas; por lo cual aunque las paredes de los tubos de humo se mantengan relativamente frías, los gases de combustión salen muy calientes de los tubos, en los calentadores de agua y las calderas de vapor. > reaches the thermal efficiency required in today's heaters and boilers; An example of the baffles that are most commonly used inside smoke pipes are the following: The one described in US Patent No. 5,787,846. Another example is that described in US Patent No. 5, 544,625. A further example is that described in US Pat. No. 4,327,671 also of the United States. The baffles of the aforementioned inventions, in addition to the fact that their use implies an additional cost, are ineffective because they are not cooled by any fluid and therefore are always at very high temperature during operation of heaters and boilers; Therefore, although the walls of the smoke pipes remain relatively cold, the combustion gases come out very hot from the pipes, in water heaters and steam boilers.

Es por tanto un objeto de la presente invención, el de proporcionar un recuperador de calor que está constituido por un ducto para gases, que no requiere baffles en su interior, porque puede recuperar el calor únicamente con sus paredes y es fácil de fabricar. It is therefore an object of the present invention, to provide a heat recuperator that is constituted by a gas duct, which does not require baffles inside, because it can recover heat only with its walls and is easy to manufacture.

Es un objeto más de la presente invención, el de proporcionar un ducto para gases, que permite alcanzar una alta eficiencia térmica a bajo costo, porque toda la superficie que está en contacto con los gases calientes de combustión, es enfriada por el agua que contiene el calentador o caldera; por lo cual se requiere menos superficie de calefacción y menos costo en relación a los tubos de humo que sí requieren baffles en su interior. It is a further object of the present invention, to provide a gas duct, which allows to achieve high thermal efficiency at low cost, because the entire surface that is in contact with the hot combustion gases, is cooled by the water it contains. the heater or boiler; therefore, less heating surface and less cost are required in relation to smoke pipes that do require baffles inside.

Figure 2 individually shows a sectional view of the arc-shaped duct, shown in Figure 1 and a series of protuberances. Figure 3 shows a longitudinal section of the arc-shaped duct, which is proposed here and the profile of the gas duct and a series of protrusions can be seen.

DESCRIPCIÓN DETALLADA DE LA INVENCIÓN DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La presente descripción se hace con fines ilustrativos, no limitativos y se hace referencia a las figuras y a los signos numéricos que se acompañan. The present description is made for illustrative, non-limiting purposes and reference is made to the accompanying figures and numerical signs.

La figura 1 muestra como ejemplo, el tanque 1 de un calentador de agua, en el cual se aprecia la posición preferida para disponer dos ductos para gases 2, con forma de arco en el interior del tanque 1 ; lo cual no es limitativo, porque se pueden disponer más de dos ductos 2 con forma de arco en el tanque 1 ; la cantidad de ductos 2, depende del diámetro que tenga el tanque 1 y de la potencia con la que sea diseñado el calentador de agua. Los ductos 2 de la presente figura, se disponen preferentemente contrapuestos entre sí y entre los extremos de ambos ducto 2, queda una separación de al menos 20 mm. Para que el agua pueda fluir libremente alrededor y en medio de los dos ductos 2 y así el calentamiento del agua es uniforme en el interior del tanque 1. Figure 1 shows as an example, the tank 1 of a water heater, in which the preferred position for arranging two pipelines for gases 2, arc-shaped inside the tank 1, is appreciated; which is not limiting, because more than two arc-shaped ducts 2 can be arranged in the tank 1; The quantity of ducts 2 depends on the diameter of the tank 1 and the power with which the water heater is designed. The ducts 2 of the present figure are preferably arranged opposite each other and between the ends of both ducts 2, there is a gap of at least 20 mm. So that water can flow freely around and in between the two ducts 2 and so the water heating is uniform inside the tank 1.

La figura 2 muestra una vista seccional del ducto para gases 2, con forma de arco que aquí se propone; el cual está compuesto por dos paredes que quedan enfrentadas entre sí y presenta en sus dos paredes una pluralidad de protuberancias 3, que están formadas hacia el interior del ducto 2 y cuando las dos paredes del ducto 2, quedan enfrentadas entre sí, las protuberancias 3 de las dos paredes, quedan contrapuestas y haciendo contacto entre sí, por lo cual funcionan como atiesadores y así se mantienen separadas las dos paredes del ducto 2 y que el ducto 2 pueda resistir la presión externa. Las protuberancias 3 se forman por medio de un troquel, con la distribución al tresbolillo, para que no queden alineadas de forma consecutiva respecto al eje longitudinal del ducto 2, ya que esa es la dirección en que fluyen los gases de combustión, como lo indica la flecha 4 de la figura 3. La distribución al tresbolillo en las protuberancias 3, se requiere porque éstas también tienen la función de provocar turbulencias y recuperar el calor de los gases de combustión, que fluyen en el interior del ducto 2. El presente ducto para gases 2, tiene la forma de arco porque ésta es similar a la forma que tiene la pared del tanque 1 y por ello en un determinado tanque 1 , se pueden disponer una cierta cantidad de ductos 2 con forma de arco, de diferentes dimensiones; se disponen preferentemente en pares, como se aprecia en la figura 1 y queda un par de ductos 2, en medio de otro par de ductos 2 de mayor tamaño y pueden quedar en posición preferentemente concéntrica, aunque los ductos 2 pueden disponerse con otra distribución en el tanque 1. La disposición de una mayor cantidad de ductos 2 en el tanque 1 , incrementa el área de paso para los gases de combustión y aumenta el área de calefacción, respecto a los ductos 2 de forma rectangular; esto es importante porque el espesor del ducto 2 está definido por la separación entre sus dos paredes, lo cual está limitado por la profundidad que se puede alcanzar en las protuberancias 3. Las protuberancias 3 pueden tener forma semiesférica, de cono truncado, o forma irregular, porque lo más importante es que queden distribuidas al tresbolillo y que queden confrontadas y haciendo contacto entre sí en las dos paredes del ducto 2. El presente ducto para gases 2 con forma de arco, alcanza un ángulo tangencial preferido de 120° desde un extremo hasta el extremo opuesto, lo cual no es limitativo, porque el ducto 2 con forma de arco, puede tener ángulos intermedios, desde 180° hasta 0o. Como se puede entender, el ducto 2 con 0o de ángulo, se convierte en un ducto 2 de forma rectangular. Figure 2 shows a sectional view of the arc-shaped gas duct 2 which is proposed here; which is composed of two walls that face each other and has on its two walls a plurality of protuberances 3, which are formed towards the inside of the duct 2 and when the two walls of the duct 2, face each other, the protuberances 3 of the two walls, they are opposed and making contact with each other, so they function as stiffeners and thus keep the two walls of the duct 2 apart and that the duct 2 can withstand external pressure. The protuberances 3 are formed by means of a die, with the distribution to the tresbolillo, so that they are not aligned consecutively with respect to the longitudinal axis of the duct 2, since that is the direction in which the flue gases flow, as indicated the arrow 4 of figure 3. The distribution to the triplet in the protuberances 3, is required because they also have the function of causing turbulence and recovering the heat of the flue gases, which flow inside the duct 2. The present duct for gases 2, it has the arc shape because it is similar to the shape of the wall of the tank 1 and therefore in a certain tank 1, a certain amount of arc-shaped ducts 2 of different dimensions can be arranged; they are preferably arranged in pairs, as seen in Figure 1 and a pair of ducts 2 remain, in the middle of another pair of larger ducts 2 and can be preferably in a concentric position, although the ducts 2 can be arranged with another distribution in the tank 1. The arrangement of a greater quantity of ducts 2 in the tank 1, increases the area of passage for the flue gases and increases the heating area, with respect to the ducts 2 of rectangular form; This is important because the thickness of the duct 2 is defined by the separation between its two walls, which is limited by the depth that can be reached in the protuberances 3. The protuberances 3 can have a hemispherical shape, a truncated cone, or an irregular shape, because the most important thing is that they are distributed to the tresbolillo and that they are confronted and making contact with each other on the two walls of the duct 2. The present arc-shaped gas duct 2 reaches a preferred tangential angle of 120 ° from one end to the opposite end, which is not limiting, because the arc-shaped duct 2 can have intermediate angles, from 180 ° to 0 o . As can be understood, the duct 2 with 0 or angle, becomes a rectangular duct 2.

La figura 3 muestra un corte longitudinal del ducto para gases 2 con forma de arco, que aquí se propone y se aprecia el perfil de las dos paredes del ducto 2 y se aprecia también una serie de protuberancias 3, las cuales hacen contacto entre sí para que funcionen como atiesadores. Figure 3 shows a longitudinal section of the arc-shaped gas duct 2, which is proposed here and the profile of the two walls of the duct 2 is appreciated and a series of protuberances 3 are also seen, which make contact with each other to that function as stiffeners.

La figura 4 muestra una vista seccional de una variante del ducto para gases 2, que aquí se propone; el cual tiene forma rectangular y se aprecia una serie de protuberancias 3, las cuales hacen contacto entre sí para funcionar como atiesadores. El presente ducto 2 de forma rectangular, también presenta en sus dos paredes una pluralidad de protuberancias 3, las cuales son formadas por un troquel hacia el interior del ducto 2, con la distribución al tres bolillo y al quedar enfrentadas entre sí las dos paredes del ducto 2, las protuberancias 3 funcionan como atiesadores cuando quedan confrontadas entre sí, tal y como se describ en la figura 2. Además, todas las características del ducto 2 y de las protuberancias 3 que se describen en la figura 2, se aplican exactamente igual en el ducto 2 de la presente figura, excepto la forma de arco. Las protuberancias 3 que se muestran y describen en la presente figura y en las figuras 2 y 3, pueden ser sustituidas en su totalidad por nervios en las dos paredes del ducto 2, ya sea que el ducto 2 tenga forma de arco o forma rectangular y se puede diseñar un troquel que pueda formar los nervios y las protuberancias 3, combinados en las dos paredes del ducto 2. Figure 4 shows a sectional view of a variant of the gas pipeline 2, which is proposed here; which has a rectangular shape and a series of protuberances 3 are appreciated, which make contact with each other to function as stiffeners. The present rectangular duct 2, also has on its two walls a plurality of protuberances 3, which are formed by a die towards the inside of the duct 2, with the distribution to the three bobbin and when facing the two walls of the duct 2, the bumps 3 function as stiffeners when confronted with each other, as described in figure 2. In addition, all the characteristics of the duct 2 and the protuberances 3 described in figure 2, apply exactly the same in the duct 2 of the present figure, except for the arc shape. The protuberances 3 that are shown and described in the present figure and in figures 2 and 3, can be completely replaced by nerves in the two walls of the duct 2, whether the duct 2 has an arc or rectangular shape and a die can be designed that can form the ribs and the protuberances 3, combined in the two walls of the duct 2.

Como ya es sabido, los nervios tienen forma alargada y también son formados con un troquel en las dos paredes hacia el interior del ducto para gases 2 y en la dirección transversal respecto al eje longitudinal del ducto 2, los nervios quedan en hileras y paralelos entre sí en todas las hileras de las dos paredes del ducto 2 y en dirección longitudinal, los nervios quedan intercalados de tal forma, que cada nervio de una hilera determinada, inicia en medio de donde terminan dos nervios de las hileras adyacentes longitudinalmente; lo cual es equivalente a la distribución al tres bolillo de las protuberancias 3; dicha distribución se requiere para que los filetes de gases que fluyen en el interior del ducto 2, sean cortados por la mitad en cada hilera de nervios. Además, en dirección del eje longitudinal del ducto 2, los nervios se pueden formar con una orientación muy variada, desde la posición alineada, hasta 90° respecto al eje longitudinal del ducto 2; pero se propone un ángulo preferido de 30° respecto al eje longitudinal del ducto 2, por ejemplo; si tenemos las dos paredes del ducto 2 enfrentadas entre sí, los nervios de una pared, quedan girados 30° en contra de las manecillas del reloj y los nervios de la pared de enfrente, quedan girados 30° a favor de las manecillas del reloj y así se forma una V en cada nervio cuando éste se confronta con el nervio correspondiente de la pared de enfrente. Opcionalmente los nervios pueden tener una orientación igual en las dos paredes del ducto 2, por ejemplo; si tenemos las dos paredes del ducto 2 enfrentadas entre sí, los nervios de las dos paredes quedan girados 30° a favor de las manecillas del reloj, así los nervios de ambas paredes se confrontan alineados entre sí. Además, los nervios de una hilera pueden estar girados 30° a favor de las manecillas del reloj y los nervios de la siguiente hilera longitudinalmente, pueden estar girados 30° en contra de las i manecillas del reloj y así sucesivamente para las siguientes hileras de nervios en las dos paredes del ducto 2 y de esta forma, queda un trayecto sinuoso para los gases de combustión que fluyen por el interior del ducto para gases 2. Los nervios de las dos paredes, hacen contacto al quedar confrontados entre sí para funcionar como atiesadores y mantienen separadas las dos paredes del ducto 2 para que elAs is already known, the nerves are elongated in shape and are also formed with a die in the two walls towards the inside of the gas duct 2 and in the transverse direction with respect to the longitudinal axis of the duct 2, the nerves are in rows and parallel between yes, in all the rows of the two walls of the duct 2 and in the longitudinal direction, the nerves are interspersed in such a way that each nerve of a particular row starts in the middle of where two nerves of the adjacent rows end longitudinally; which is equivalent to the three-bolt distribution of the bumps 3; said distribution is required so that the fillets of gases flowing inside the duct 2 are cut in half in each row of nerves. Furthermore, in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the duct 2, the ribs can be formed in a very varied orientation, from the aligned position, up to 90 ° with respect to the longitudinal axis of the duct 2; but a preferred angle of 30 ° is proposed relative to the longitudinal axis of the duct 2, for example; if we have the two walls of the duct 2 facing each other, the nerves of a wall, are turned 30 ° against the hands of the clock and the nerves of the opposite wall, are turned 30 ° in favor of the hands of the clock and thus a V is formed in each nerve when it is confronted with the corresponding nerve in the opposite wall. Optionally the nerves can have an equal orientation in the two walls of the duct 2, for example; if we have the two walls of the duct 2 facing each other, the nerves of the two walls are turned 30 ° in favor of the hands of the clock, so the nerves of both walls face each other aligned. In addition, the nerves of one row may be rotated 30 ° in favor of the clock hands and the nerves of the next row longitudinally, may be rotated 30 ° against the clock hands and so on for the following rows of nerves In the two walls of the duct 2 and in this way, there is a winding path for the flue gases that flow through the interior of the duct for gases 2. The nerves of the two walls make contact when confronted with each other to function as stiffeners and keep the two walls of the duct 2 apart so that the

; ducto 2 pueda resistir le presión externa. ; duct 2 can withstand external pressure.

Las paredes de los ductos para gases 2, que se describen en las figuras 2, 3 y 4, cuentan con dos pestañas longitudinales en ambos lados opuestos de cada pared y cuando las dos paredes de cada ducto 2, quedan enfrentadas entre sí, las pestañas de ambas paredes se sueldan entre sí, para formar el ducto 2, ya sea que éste tenga forma de arco o forma rectangular. The walls of the gas ducts 2, which are described in Figures 2, 3 and 4, have two longitudinal tabs on both opposite sides of each wall and when the two walls of each duct 2 face each other, the tabs both walls are welded together to form the duct 2, whether it has an arc or rectangular shape.

El ducto para gases 2 que se describe en las figuras 2, 3 y 4, ya sea que presente en sus dos paredes una pluralidad de protuberancias 3, o una pluralidad de nervios, o una combinación de ambos; como sea, puede funcionar con tiro natural y con tiro forzado; cuando el ducto 2 funciona con tiro natural, las protuberancias 3 y o los nervios, tienen que formarse lo más pronunciados que permita la elasticidad de la lámina, para que las paredes del ducto 2, queden suficientemente separadas entre sí, porque los gases de combustión fluyen a baja velocidad y se requiere una mayor área de paso para los mismos; pero si el presente ducto 2, funciona con tiro forzado, las protuberancias 3 y o los nervios, pueden formarse poco pronunciados y las dos paredes del ducto 2, pueden quedar muy cercanas entre sí; porque en este caso, los gases de combustión fluyen a alta velocidad porque son impulsados por un soplador mecánico. Además, en los calentadores y calderas de funcionamiento vertical y que funcionan con tiro forzado, los gases de combustión pueden fluir en dirección ascendente, o en dirección descendente por el interior del ducto para gases 2. The gas duct 2 described in Figures 2, 3 and 4, whether it has on its two walls a plurality of protuberances 3, or a plurality of nerves, or a combination of both; however, it can work with natural shooting and forced shooting; when the duct 2 works with natural draft, the protuberances 3 and the nerves, have to be formed as pronounced as the elasticity of the sheet allows, so that the walls of the duct 2, are sufficiently separated from each other, because the flue gases flow at low speed and a larger passage area is required for them; but if the present duct 2, works with forced draft, the protuberances 3 and the nerves, can be formed little pronounced and the two walls of the duct 2, can be very close to each other; because in this case, the flue gases flow at high speed because they are driven by a mechanical blower. In addition, in heaters and boilers that operate vertically and operate with forced draft, combustion gases can flow in the upward direction, or in the downward direction through the interior of the gas duct 2.
