Abstract

At powerful thermal power plants or boiler houses, the efficiency depends to the greatest extent on the amount of heat lost with the cooling of turbine condensers, exhaust gases that have a high temperature. Each type of such losses is a large unused energy potential, that is, a secondary energy resource that can be used. At the same time, the use of secondary resources and industrial emissions will improve the ecological situation in the regions, and this has always been an urgent task.
 As a rule, large losses of thermal secondary energy resources in boilers are reduced by installing economizers and air heaters. Contact types of heat exchangers are distinguished by the best efficiency in operation. In contact economizers, to increase the surface of heat and mass transfer, it is advisable to use various types of nozzles.
 The aim of the study is to develop such an indicator, with which it is possible to determine the optimal type of nozzle of the contact economizer installed after the steam boiler. This indicator should show the highest heat engineering efficiency of the packing with a small hydraulic resistance of the heat exchanger.
 By using the coefficient of specific energy efficiency of the packing in the heat exchanger of waste gases of heating equipment, it is possible to analyze the work of the packing space from the standpoint of thermal and hydraulic efficiency and select the optimal type of packing for each individual unit or installation. Geometric parameters determine the required volume of the apparatus and the hydraulic resistance of the exhaust gases movement. The hydraulic resistance affects the consumption of electrical energy for the drive of smoke exhausters for sucking off exhaust gases from heat engineering installations through the free section of the heat exchanger. Taking into account the developed indicator of the specific energy efficiency in waste heat utilizers, it is possible to select such a type of packing, at which the optimal level of waste heat utilization will be achieved.
