2. Description of the Related Art As a heat exchange system for exchanging heat between fluids of two systems via a heat storage body, a Jungstrom type air preheater as shown in FIG. 9 has been generally used.
In this Jungstrom type air preheater 400, a duct 402 through which a relatively high temperature gas such as combustion exhaust gas flows and a duct 403 through which a low temperature gas such as combustion air flows are fixed to a casing 411, and a disc-shaped heat storage is provided. Body 40
1 is rotated to switch the flow of gas to the heat storage body 401 without changing the flow path itself, and the heat recovered from the combustion exhaust gas is used to preheat the combustion air. This Jungstrom type air preheater 400 is divided into at least two chambers 406, 407 and 409, 410 on the upstream side and the downstream side of the rotating heat storage body 401 by partition walls 405, 408 and a sealing material 404. The rotating heat storage body 401 is the sealing material 40.
It is provided so that the heat storage body 401 is warmed by the exhaust gas passing through one of the areas and is heated by the exhaust gas passing through the one area while the combustion air passing through the other area is preheated by the heat of the heat storage body 401. Here, although not shown, the seal material 404 cannot be brought into close contact with the heat storage body 401 formed by arranging corrugated plates in a radial direction, and therefore cannot be slid, so that the seal material 404 is arranged with a slight gap.

On the other hand, a preheating technique for combustion air has been developed in recent years in order to recover a considerable amount of heat from waste gas and improve thermal efficiency. For example, as shown in FIG. 13, a burner 103 having a heat storage body 102 is provided at both ends of a radiant tube 101, and these burners are alternately burned so that the flue gas is discharged through the burner-side heat storage body 102 which is not burned. In addition, a radiant tube burner that preheats combustion air using the heat of the combustion exhaust gas stored in the heat storage body 102 has been proposed (industrial heating Vol.
23, NO.6, P71 Published by Japan Industrial Reactor Association). In the heat storage type heat exchange system in such a combustion system, an electromagnetic valve is adopted as a flow path switching means for switching and connecting the high temperature gas flow path and the low temperature gas flow path to the heat storage body 102 attached to each burner 103. Is common. For example,
Electromagnetic valves 104, 105, 106, 107 are provided at four locations, and by selectively opening and closing them, the flow paths of the high temperature gas and the low temperature gas can be switched. Incidentally, reference numerals 108 and 109 in the figure are solenoid valves for selectively opening and closing the fuel supply system 110.

However, in the case of the Jungstrom type air preheater, since the gas flow to the heat storage body 401 is switched by rotating the heat storage body 401, the large and heavy heat storage body is used. When adopting, there is a problem that the structure of the rotating mechanism is complicated and the size becomes large. Further, since the heat storage body itself is rotated, the heat storage body itself is likely to be damaged, and it is difficult to manufacture it from ceramics or the like. Further, since the heat storage body itself is rotated, it is difficult to seal the heat storage body, and it is about 25% when there is a large amount of fluid leakage between the two flow paths. For this reason, there are problems that the heat exchange efficiency becomes low, and the amount of combustion air supplied cannot be accurately controlled when it is used for heat exchange between combustion exhaust gas and combustion air in a combustion system.

Further, in the case of the heat storage type heat exchange system and the combustion system using the solenoid valve as shown in FIG. 13, a large number of expensive high temperature fluid solenoid valves are used, which increases the facility cost. Moreover, since the solenoid valve for air piping is quite large, there is a problem that it takes up a considerable amount of space in a flow path switching device that requires four solenoid valves. Further, there is a problem that the piping is duplicated and complicated and it takes up a lot of space. For example, when it is applied to a heating furnace or a soaking furnace in a steel mill or the like, thousands of solenoid valves are required. Moreover, switching between air and exhaust gas is 1/1 of the conventional heat storage type burner system.
When it is attempted to frequently perform the time from 0 to 1/20, for example, several tens of seconds to 1 minute, the solenoid valve is anxious about the durability.

Further, in the case of the heat storage type heat exchange system and the combustion system using the four-way valve shown in FIG. 14, in the four-way valve having a general structure, the combustion air supply system and the combustion exhaust gas system are short-passed within the valve. There is a problem that the amount of combustion air supplied to the burner fluctuates regardless of control. Further, at the moment of switching, a phenomenon occurs in which the combustion air supply system and the combustion exhaust gas system cause a short path completely and the combustion air is not supplied to the heat storage body side but is directly exhausted.

The flow of the fluid is switched such that the communication hole for the high temperature fluid advances in the rotational direction of the communication hole for the low temperature fluid, and the communication hole for the low temperature fluid and the communication hole for the high temperature fluid are provided in the same chamber. Since they do not exist at the same time, and they move from the front communication hole to the front chamber one by one, the front-row communication holes for high-temperature fluid in the chamber next to the vacant chamber are located in front of the heat storage body, that is, the vacant chamber. Even if it happens, the communication hole for the low temperature fluid, the communication hole for the other high temperature fluid, and the communication hole for the low temperature fluid, which are located behind it, are still present in the same chamber / compartment, and the switching does not start. After the hot fluid communication hole in the front row completely moves to the front chamber / compartment that was empty, the room / compartment that has been communicating with the hot fluid communication hole in the front row is now empty. Then, the next low temperature communication hole approaches there. At this time, the low-temperature fluid communication hole extends over two chambers / compartments, the former chamber / compartment and the new room / compartment (vacant chamber), at the same time.
Since it can be switched while supplying fluid to the compartments at the same time,
Fluid flow is never interrupted. Moreover, since the communication hole for the high temperature fluid in the front row is located in the chamber / compartment one before the chamber / compartment where the communication hole for the low temperature fluid is approaching, the high temperature fluid and the low temperature fluid are mixed in the same compartment. There is no.

Further, in switching the flow of the fluid in the case of the inventions of claims 3 and 4, both the communication hole for the high temperature fluid and the communication hole for the low temperature fluid are simultaneously moved to the respective front empty chambers. When the high-temperature fluid communication hole and the low-temperature fluid communication hole completely occupy the front chamber / compartment, the chamber / compartment that has been communicating with the high-temperature fluid communication hole and the low-temperature fluid communication hole until now is It will be vacant. Here, when the communication hole for the high temperature fluid and the communication hole for the low temperature fluid communicate with a plurality of chambers / compartments at one time, the rearmost chamber / compartment in the rotation direction becomes an empty chamber. At this time, the high-temperature fluid communication hole and the low-temperature fluid communication hole are divided into the existing chamber / compartment and the new chamber / compartment.
Since it is switched over while simultaneously straddling one compartment and supplying fluid to two compartments at the same time, the flow of fluid is not interrupted. Moreover, since the communication hole for the high temperature fluid in the front is occupied in the section one before the section where the communication hole for the low temperature fluid is approaching, the high temperature fluid and the low temperature fluid passing in opposite directions are mixed in the same section. It doesn't fit.

The heat storage body 1 is not limited to a specific shape or material, and a material or shape may be appropriately selected according to the temperature or property of the heat exchange fluid. For example, for heat exchange between a high temperature fluid of around 1000 ° C. such as combustion exhaust gas and a low temperature fluid of around 20 ° C. such as combustion air, a honeycomb manufactured by extrusion molding using a ceramic such as cordierite or mullite as a material. It is preferable to use a shape. In addition, it is preferable to use metals such as aluminum, iron, and copper, which are relatively cheaper than ceramics, at medium to high temperatures of about 500 to 600 ° C. At lower temperatures, particularly corrosive gases such as corrosive gases are recovered to below the acid dew point temperature. In this case, it is preferable to use resins such as FRP and glass. Further, the shape of the heat storage body 1 is not particularly limited to the honeycomb shape illustrated, and as shown in (A) and (B) of FIG. 10, a flat or corrugated heat storage material 27 is stored in a tubular casing 28. Radially, or as shown in FIG. 10C,
The pipe-shaped heat storage material 27 may be filled in the tubular casing 28 so that the fluid may pass through in the axial direction. Further, in the present embodiment, the single heat storage body 1 is substantially divided into the Z chamber by the distribution chamber 2, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this, and the heat storage body 1 itself is set to the aN chamber. You may form a division. For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (D), a cylindrical casing 2 partitioned by a partition wall 29 in the circumferential direction into an aN chamber and allowing passage of a fluid in the axial direction.
8 may be prepared, and each chamber may be filled with a lump of the heat storage material 27 having a spherical shape, a short tube, a short rod, a strip, a nugget shape, a net shape, or the like. When using a heat storage material 27 such as SiN that can be used at a much higher temperature than cordierite or mullite, it is not easy to form a complicated honeycomb shape, but a simple pipe shape, rod, ball, etc. It is easy to mold into. Therefore,
It is preferable to employ a heat storage structure as shown in (C) or (D) of FIG.

The honeycomb shape originally means hexagonal cells (holes), but in the present specification, not only the original hexagonal cells but also quadrangular and triangular cells are opened innumerably. In the case of the present embodiment, the heat storage body 1 is divided into a total number of chambers Z (aN) by the distribution chambers 2 arranged in front of and behind it. For example, in the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the partition chamber 8 divides the distribution chamber 2 into three chambers 9a, 9b, 9c.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, the inside of the heat storage body 1 in which the fluid does not flow and the chamber 1 in which the high temperature fluid (for example, combustion exhaust gas) flows
3 of 1 and a chamber 12 through which a low temperature fluid (for example, combustion air) flows
It is divided into rooms. That is, since the heat storage body 1 itself has a honeycomb shape composed of a set of cells each of which constitutes an independent flow path, the range partitioned by the distribution chamber 2 is defined as one partitioned chamber. Will be formed. When the distribution chamber 2 is provided, the fluid flowing through the communication hole 4 for high temperature fluid and the communication hole 5 for low temperature fluid can be dispersed so as to be uniformly distributed over the entire area of the heat storage body 1.

However, any number of pairs can be combined in this way. It is also possible to form a plurality of units by setting N chambers as one unit. That is, the total number Z of rooms / compartments is Z =
It is represented by a · N (where a is a positive integer excluding 0 indicating the number of units). In this case, the positions of the communication holes 4 and 5 for the high temperature fluid and the low temperature fluid are set so that the empty chamber 10 is located between the units. In this way, it is also possible to form a plurality of chambers of the total number of chambers Z in the heat storage body 1 with the N chambers as one unit. This relationship is illustrated in FIG. In FIG. 5, for convenience of drawing, the positional relationship and size of the communication hole 4 for the high temperature fluid and the communication hole 5 for the low temperature fluid are not shown accurately.

Further, the angle α between the high temperature fluid communication hole, for example, 4 -1 and the low temperature fluid communication hole 5 -1 , which are in a front-rear relationship, does not allow the same chamber / compartment of the heat storage body 1 to communicate at the same time. Is set to. Therefore, when the communication hole 4 -1 for high-temperature fluid in the front row is used as a reference, the communication hole 4 -1 for high-temperature fluid in the front row is used.
When -1 approaches the partition 8, the communication hole 5 -1 for the low temperature fluid in the adjacent chamber is at least the communication hole 4 for the high temperature fluid from the partition 8.
-1 minute apart, and the high temperature fluid communication hole 4-2 in the next chamber is at least the high temperature fluid communication hole 4 -1 and the low temperature fluid communication hole 5 -1 minute from the partition 8 of the same chamber. And the low temperature communication hole 5-2 of the fourth chamber is at least separated from the partition 8 of the same chamber by at least the high temperature fluid communication hole 4-1 , the low temperature fluid communication hole 5-1 and the high temperature fluid communication hole 5-1. The holes 4-2 exist at positions separated by three holes. That is, as shown in FIG. 6 (A), the high temperature fluid passage 4 -1 front row ahead of Check 1
When approaching 0, the low temperature fluid communication hole 5 -1 does not reach the partition 8 with the next chamber (the chamber one after) 12 -1 of the same chamber 11 -1 , and the communication for the high temperature fluid in the front row is not reached. only holes 4-1 communicates simultaneously two chambers so as to straddle the check 10 in front. Then, when the front-row high-temperature fluid communication hole 4-1 has completely moved to the front room, which was the empty room 10, the front-row high-temperature fluid communication hole 4-1 has been present. chamber 11 -1 becomes Check, there behind the next room 12 -1 cryogen communicating hole 5 -1
And the second-row low temperature fluid communication hole 5 -1 only has 2

Further, the switching means 3 may be formed with each communication hole in almost all regions except the portion for forming the vacant chamber. 7 to 9 show another embodiment of the switching means 3. In the switching means 3 of this embodiment, the high-temperature fluid communication hole 4 and the low-temperature fluid communication hole 5 are holes of a size that occupies substantially the entire area of each chamber of the heat storage body 1 divided into N chambers. For example, an arrangement relationship is established so that at least one empty chamber 10 can be partitioned between a chamber 11 for flowing combustion exhaust gas) and a chamber 12 for flowing a low temperature fluid (for example, combustion air). That is,
The heat storage body 1 is divided into N sections in the circumferential direction by the division by the distribution chamber 2 or the division of the heat storage body itself as in the above-described embodiment.
(N = n + 2, where n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2 and is the number of chambers through which the fluid always flows.) The chambers are evenly divided, and the fluid can pass through each chamber in the axial direction. Here, the number of chambers divided into the heat storage body 1 is two low chambers (fluid chambers) in at least one set, with one chamber for a low temperature fluid flowing a low temperature fluid and a chamber for a high temperature fluid flowing a high temperature fluid as one set. Room that does not flow) 10,
It is a combination of 10 and 4 rooms / compartment is the minimum number of rooms / compartment. The number of chambers 11 for high temperature fluid and the number of chambers 12 for low temperature fluid do not have to be the same, and in some cases, as shown in FIG. 9, the number of chambers 12 for low temperature fluid is greater than the number of chambers 11 for high temperature fluid. Can be increased or vice versa. In this case, when the ratio between the amount of high temperature fluid and the amount of low temperature fluid is different, the heat transfer surface area of the heat storage body used can be changed for each ratio, and an appropriate heat balance can be maintained. There are advantages. Further, a plurality of chambers / compartments may be made to flow the fluid simultaneously by one communication hole. For example, as shown in FIG. 7 or 8, two or three or more chambers / compartments may be simultaneously connected to one communication hole. In this case, the size of the vacant room required for switching is reduced, and the switching time can be shortened. Further, it is also possible to form a plurality of units with N chambers as one unit. That is, the total number Z of chambers is represented by Z = aN (where a is a positive integer other than 0 indicating the number of units). In this case, the positions of the communication holes 4 and 5 are set such that a group of high temperature fluid chambers 11 and a group of low temperature fluid chambers 12 are alternately arranged with one vacant chamber 10 interposed. This relationship is illustrated in FIGS. 8 and 9.

The switching of the flow of the fluid in the switching means 3 configured as described above is performed by the high temperature fluid communication hole 4 and the low temperature fluid communication hole 5 at the same time in front of the respective empty chambers 1.
It is performed by changing to 0 and 10. And
When the high-temperature fluid communication hole 4 and the low-temperature fluid communication hole 5 completely occupy the front chamber / compartment that was an empty chamber, the high-temperature fluid communication hole 4 and the low-temperature fluid communication hole 5 have been communicated so far. The room / compartment that was open will be vacant. For example, taking the case of 1 unit 8 chambers shown in FIG. 7 as an example,
The last chamber / compartments 11 -3 and 12 -3 in the rotation direction are vacant. At this time, the high-temperature fluid communication hole 4 and the low-temperature fluid communication hole 5 are newly added to the existing chambers / compartments 11 -1 , 11 -2 , 11 -3 and 12 -1 , 12 -2 , 12 -3.

First, in the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, when the combustion air as a low temperature fluid is introduced into the low temperature fluid chamber 6a of the inlet / outlet means 6, the combustion air passes through the low temperature communicating hole 5 and is distributed into the distribution chamber. 2 into the second chamber 9b, and further into the corresponding chamber (the chamber through which the low temperature fluid flows) / section 12 of the heat storage body 1. At this time, since the corresponding compartment / chamber of the heat storage body 1 is heated by the heat of the combustion exhaust gas that has passed before the switching, the combustion air passing therethrough removes the heat of the heat storage body 1 to a high temperature, that is, the heat storage body. 1 is set to a high temperature close to the temperature of the combustion exhaust gas. Then, it flows into the second chamber 9b of the downstream distribution chamber 2 and is discharged to the supply chamber 6a through the low temperature communication hole 5 of the switching means 3. Then, it is supplied to a use place, for example, the burner 35 or the like via the flow path 33 connected to the supply chamber 6a.

Next, when the switching means 3 is continuously or intermittently rotated counterclockwise from the state shown in FIG.
First, the high-temperature fluid communication hole 4 has the third chamber 9 of the distribution chamber adjacent on the left side.
The combustion exhaust gas flows to the first chamber 9a and the third chamber 9c at the same time in the area c. Then, the combustion exhaust gas passes through the first compartment and the third compartment (the portion indicated by reference numeral 10 in FIG. 3) of the heat storage body 1 and then the first chamber 9a and the third compartment 9a of the downstream distribution chamber 2. High temperature fluid chamber 6b which flows into the chamber 9c and is connected to both chambers 9a and 9c through the high temperature fluid communication hole 4.
Is supplied to. After that, the high temperature fluid communication hole 4 is completely switched to the third chamber 9c (the part that was the empty chamber shown by reference numeral 10 in FIG. 3), and then the low temperature occupied in the second chamber 9b is reached. The fluid communication hole 5 is switched to the first chamber 9a (the chamber portion indicated by reference numeral 11 in FIG. 3), and the second
The region partitioned by the chamber 9b (the chamber indicated by reference numeral 12 in FIG. 3) is the vacant chamber 10. In other words, the combustion exhaust gas is flown into the void 10 where the fluid has not been flowed until now,
Combustion air is made to flow into the chamber 11 in which the combustion exhaust gas has been made to flow, and no fluid is made to flow in the chamber 12 in which combustion air has been made to flow. Therefore, the heat storage body 1 is heated by the heat of the combustion exhaust gas, and the combustion air passing through the heated heat storage body 1 is warmed by the heat of the heat storage body 1. At this time, the regions / chambers in which the combustion air and the combustion exhaust gas flow in the heat storage body 1 are sequentially switched, but since they are always in communication with the high temperature fluid chamber 6b and the low temperature fluid chamber 6a of the inlet / outlet means 6, respectively, the heat storage type The fluid flow system itself before and after the heat exchanger 30 cannot be switched. Further, since the switching of the flow of the fluid is performed while communicating with each of the two chambers using the vacant chamber 10, the fluid flow is not interrupted. Then, the combustion exhaust gas and the combustion air are sequentially switched to the next flow without interruption.

Get better. In addition, combustion air that is preheated by using the waste heat recovered by the heat storage type heat exchanger 30 is supplied to the burner 35 side. At this time, it is preferable to switch the switching cycle of the heat storage body 1 to a relatively short time in order to improve thermal efficiency. For example, the switching means 3 may be rotated by one chamber / compartment every 10 seconds to 90 seconds, preferably about 10 seconds, or may be rotated by one room / compartment over about 10 seconds. Such short-time switching can be reliably realized by the flow path switching device 30 of the present invention illustrated in FIG. 1 or 2 without causing leakage of exhaust gas. Further, when the communication hole 4 for high temperature fluid and the communication hole 5 for low temperature fluid are made to have substantially the same size, the combustion gas expanded by combustion is discharged to the outside of the furnace without passing through the heat storage body 1, It is preferable to supply it to a heat treatment facility, a convection heat exchanger, an economizer, a heating facility or the like so that it can be used as a heat source.
