Study on Heat Transfer Characteristics of Titanium Alloy Spiral Pipe Crude Oil Heat Exchanger
To meet the special technical need for produced liquid(crude oil)heating at producing well site in winter
and solve the problems(including difficulties in withstanding high pressure
large size and weight
difficulties in manufacturing
high cost
easy-corrosive nature and high flow resistance under the corresponding service conditions)of traditional heat exchangers such as tube-shell type
plate type and casing type
a titanium alloy spiral pipe crude oil heat exchanger for actual producing well site conditions
with a liquid volume of 25 m
3
/d
is designed and manufactured
and a corresponding test apparatus for heat transfer and flow resistance is built. We have conducted experiments on heat transfer performance of various working media under different flow rates
as well as flow resistance tests on shell-side antifreeze solution and tube-side crude oil. The result shows that when the shell side is exposed to water or antifreeze solution and the tube side is crude oil
the Reynolds number of the shell side should be above 7 000(corresponding flow rate 0.32 m/s)and that of tube side should be above 2 000(corresponding flow rate 1.1 m/s)to obtain a relatively high total heat transfer coefficient; The flow resistance of the shell-side heat-carrying medium is small in a wide range
and its impact on the total pump lift height is basically negligible. Energy balance could be regarded as the only respect for the selection of the shell-side flow rate; When the Reynolds number of crude oil flow in the tube side is between 2 000 and 2 500(corresponding to flow rate 1.1~1.3 m/s)
and the flow resistance is about 50~75 kPa which is equivalent to 3.3% ~ 5.0% of the general wellhead back pressure
the operation of the pumping unit can hardly be affected. At this time
a higher total heat transfer coefficient is obtained. Based on the heat exchange experimental data
we have also analyzed and corrected the theoretical calculation model which is more aligned with the experimental test results
so that it can well match the experimental results. The experimental results and corrected calculation model could be used to guide the product design and engineering application selection of the titanium alloy spiral pipe crude oil heat exchanger.
