Purification system of fluid charged with particles by force of thermophoresis

摘要

A fluid treatment system by force of thermophoresis, including first and second modules between which the fluid to be treated is intended to circulate, the first module configured to be brought to a temperature greater than that of the second module so as to engender a temperature gradient causing a force of thermophoresis capable of projecting the particles to be purified in the direction of the second module. The first module includes a succession of parallel first tubes configured to be traversed by hot fluid, the second module includes a succession of parallel second tubes configured to be traversed by cold fluid, and the first tubes are arranged staggered with the second tubes.

1. A treatment system for fluid by force of thermophoresis comprising:
a treatment device including first and second modules located opposite one another and between which a fluid to be treated is circulated, the first module configured to be brought to a temperature greater than a temperature of the second module so as to engender a temperature gradient causing a force of thermophoresis capable of projecting particles to be purified, contained in the fluid to be treated, in a direction of the second module, wherein the first module includes a succession of parallel first tubes connected together and configured to be traversed by first heat-transfer fluid as a hot fluid, wherein the second module includes a succession of parallel second tubes connected together and configured to be traversed by a second heat-transfer fluid as a cold fluid, wherein the first tubes are arranged staggered with the second tubes, wherein the system further comprises:
means for circulating the hot fluid through the first tubes of the first module;means for circulating the cold fluid through the second tubes of the second module; andmeans for circulating the fluid to be treated between the first and second modules, wherein the first and second tubes are parallel to a general direction to a flow of the fluid to be treated through the treatment system, and wherein a stacking direction of the first and second modules is orthogonal relative to the general direction of the flow of the fluid to be treated through the treatment system.
