Ceramic heat exchange plate and ceramic heat exchange core assembled thereby
The present invention relates to a ceramic heat exchange plate and a ceramic heat exchange core assembled thereby. The ceramic heat exchange core comprises sealing strips, and the ceramic heat exchange plate. A plurality of ceramic heat exchange plates A and a plurality of ceramic heat exchange plates B are alternately superimposed. Side sealing strips are arranged inside top linear sealing grooves of the ceramic heat exchange plates A and bottom linear sealing grooves of the ceramic heat exchange plates B. Side sealing strips are arranged inside top linear sealing grooves of the ceramic heat exchange plates B and bottom linear sealing grooves of the ceramic heat exchange plates A. A plurality of ceramic heat exchange plates A, a plurality of ceramic heat exchange plates B and a plurality of sealing strips are assembled to form a ceramic heat exchange core. The ceramic heat exchange core is integrally sintered.
1. A ceramic heat exchange plate, comprising a central heat exchange plate ( 120 ) having:
a flat plate with a first face and a second face that are opposite to each other,
four sides consisting of a first side ( 111 ), a second side ( 112 ), a third side ( 113 ), a fourth side ( 114 );
four corners consisting of a first corner ( 101 ), a second corner ( 102 ), a third corner ( 103 ), and a fourth corner ( 104 );
a first array of fins ( 121 ), the first side ( 111 ), and the third side ( 113 ) disposed on the first face of the flat plate, wherein the first array of fins ( 121 ) comprises a plurality of rows of fins and a plurality of columns of fins, wherein the plurality of rows of fins, the first side ( 111 ), and the third side ( 113 ) are disposed along an X-axis; and
a second array of fins ( 122 ), the second side ( 112 ), and the fourth side ( 114 ) disposed on the second face of the flat plate, wherein the second array of fins ( 122 ) comprises a plurality of rows of fins and a plurality of columns of fins, wherein the plurality of rows of fins, the second side ( 112 ), and the fourth side ( 114 ) are disposed along a Y-axis;
wherein the four sides, the four corners, and the central heat exchange plate ( 120 ) are assembled to form the first or the second ceramic heat exchange plate,
wherein each of the first or the second ceramic heat exchange plate further comprises: a pair of U-shaped grooves, one defined on the second side ( 112 ), the second corner ( 102 ), and the third corner ( 103 ), the other defined on the fourth side ( 114 ), the second corner ( 102 ), and the third corner ( 103 );
a pair of inverted U-shaped grooves, one defined on the first side ( 111 ), the first corner ( 101 ), and the second corner ( 102 ), the other defined on the third side ( 113 ), the third corner ( 103 ), and the fourth corner ( 104 );
a first pair of linear grooves ( 44 ), one defined on the second side ( 112 ), the second corner ( 102 ), and the third corner ( 103 ), the other defined on the fourth side ( 114 ), the second corner ( 102 ), and the third corner ( 103 ); and
a second pair of linear grooves ( 43 ), one defined on the first side ( 111 ), the first corner ( 101 ), and the second corner ( 102 ), and the other defined on the third side ( 113 ), the third corner ( 103 ), and the fourth corner ( 104 ).
2. A ceramic heat exchange core, comprising:
a plurality of heat exchange modules that include a first heat exchange module and a second heat exchange module,
wherein each of the plurality of heat exchange modules comprises a first and a second ceramic heat exchange plates of claim 1 ,
wherein the first ceramic heat exchange plate is superimposed on the second ceramic heat exchange plate along the Z-axis while the second ceramic heat exchange plate is rotated by 90° in an XY plane formed by the X-axis and the Y-axis, thereby: two side sealing strips ( 3 ) fill the second pair of grooves ( 43 ) of the second ceramic heat exchange plate and the first pair of grooves ( 44 ) of the first ceramic heat exchange plate, and
wherein the first heat exchange module is superimposed on top of the second heat exchange module, thereby forming I-shaped sealing grooves ( 45 ) and II-shaped sealing grooves ( 46 );
wherein a combined heat exchange core is integrally sintered.
