Description
Two-phase flow distributor Technical Field The invention relates to the technical field of fluid distribution, in particular to a two-phase flow distributor. Background In a tube evaporator, the refrigerant typically becomes a two-phase flow after depressurization through a throttle valve. How the two-phase flow refrigerant is uniformly distributed to each heat exchange tube in the heat exchanger is very important to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger. It is now common practice to use a impingement plate design to improve the flow distribution non-uniformity problem. The conventional impingement plate design can not play a role in uniform distribution when the number of heat exchangers is large and the flow fluctuation is large. This results in excessive distribution of refrigerant in a portion of the heat exchange tubes, maintaining a consistent cold side temperature from the heat exchange tube inlet to the outlet, and even incomplete evaporation, with too little distribution of heat exchange tubes resulting in overheating. Under the condition, the performance of the evaporator is reduced, and meanwhile, the situation of ice blockage of the heat exchanger can also occur, so that the normal operation of the heat exchanger system is directly influenced. When the distribution mode is applied to a heat exchanger of a liquid nitrogen condensation technology of newly-appearing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) tail gas, rapid frost blocking of the hot side (namely the tail gas side of the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)) of the liquid nitrogen heat exchanger occurs, and the liquid nitrogen side serving as a refrigerant, namely the cold side, can cause insufficient heat exchange due to too low temperature of the outlet of part of heat exchange tubes, and further causes that the selection allowance of the heat exchanger needs to be further amplified to increase the equipment investment cost. Meanwhile, on the premise of ensuring the target value of the outlet temperature of the hot side, the total exhaust temperature of the cold side is reduced, and the cold quantity of the liquid nitrogen is not fully utilized, so that the consumption of the liquid nitrogen is increased. As shown in fig. 1, the conventional liquid nitrogen/nitrogen gas distribution method is that liquid nitrogen/nitrogen gas is not uniformly distributed into each heat exchange tube d, particularly liquid nitrogen therein, after entering the impact plate c through the hole b at the bottom from the inlet a. The flow of liquid nitrogen from the impingement plate c onto the tube sheet e may result in excess liquid nitrogen entering the heat exchange tubes (e.g., d 1) near the impingement plate c, while the amount of liquid nitrogen entering the remote heat exchange tubes (e.g., d 2) may be relatively small, or even completely absent. Disclosure of Invention The invention aims to solve the technical problems in the prior art, and provides a two-phase flow distributor, which adopts a multi-stage and pressure-drop-free distribution mode to ensure that the distribution of liquid nitrogen serving as a refrigerant in a liquid nitrogen condenser heat exchange tube in a liquid nitrogen condensation recovery technology of tail gas of a Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) process is uniform.

Furthermore, in the invention, the upper end of the anti-collision sleeve is opened, the bottom end of the inlet pipe is connected with the botto
