Практическое использование высокоэффективных двухфазных термосифонных устройств

Abstract

The report proposes a variant of the use of heat exchangers with thermosyphons at thermal power plants and in boiler houses. One of the possible areas of application of heat exchangers with thermosyphons is their use as oil coolers in a gas turbine unit. At thermal power plants, in addition to thermal pollution, pollution of water, soil, and the air basin with oil and oil products is a serious problem. In this regard, the development and research of devices for cooling oil in turbine plants is required. Such devices should provide high thermal performance and exclude pollution of the water basin with oil and oil products, as well as the ingress of water into oil. The presence of water in the oil will drastically deteriorate its characteristics and thereby create the danger of emergencies. Therefore, according to safety regulations, the oil pressure in the system must exceed the pressure of the cooling water.
