More Information
Summary:The invention discloses a heat exchanger for heat exchange between liquid sodium metal and air, comprising a cylinder, wherein, an outlet air door is arranged at the top of the cylinder, and an inlet air door is arranged at the bottom. The invention is characterized in that an expansion tank is arranged at the upper part of an intracavity of the cylinder; an argon gas inlet connection is arrangedat the top of the expansion tank, while the bottom is communicated with a sodium inlet pipe; the cylinder body is communicated with a heat exchange pipe bundle communicated with a sodium outlet pipe.The invention has the advantages that heat is taken away when air passes through the surface of heat exchange pipe bundle, enabling heat exchange between sodium and air; meanwhile, the chemical reaction between sodium and air is avoided due to inactivity.
