Influence of packed honeycomb ceramic on heat extraction rate of packed bed embedded heat exchanger and heat transfer modes in heat transfer process

Abstract

Under the condition that the transient oxidation heat extraction process of coal mine ventilation air methane (VAM) is equivalent to a series of steady state process, the steady state heat extraction experiment platform is built. The influence of the honeycomb ceramic packed in heat extraction zone and its two-side space on heat extraction rate and heat transfer modes is investigated. The experimental results show that the honeycomb ceramic packed in heat extraction zone two-side space can always strengthen heat extract ion of heat exchanger by increasing gas physical flow velocity in bed and radiation heat exchanging area and disturbing heat exchanger leeward side flow field. The contradictory dual characteristic of the influence of the honeycomb ceramic packed in heat extraction zone on heat exchanger heat extraction rate determines that the honeycomb ceramic has no great influence on heat extraction rate and doesn't always strengthen heat exchanger heat extraction. Contribution of heat transfer modes on packed bed embedded heat exchanger heat extraction is investigated using the method of coating heat exchanger outer surface silver; the experimental result shows that 55% contribution of packed bed embedded heat exchanger heat extraction rate is from radiation when gas mass flow rate is 0.15kg·s−1·m−2 and its temperature is 1113k; with the gas temperature being increased further, radiation will become the main way of packed bed embedded heat exchanger heat extraction.
