Thus, the heat exchanger flow path is arranged to be adaptive to the airflow distribution of the fan 3 of the air conditioner and to the change of the flow velocity of the windward airflow of the heat exchanger caused by the change of the airflow flowing directions of the upper air-out cooling mode and the lower air-out heating mode of the air conditioner, so that the circulating flow of each flow path is adaptive to the flow velocity distribution of the windward airflow of the heat exchanger during the cooling and the heating, the heat exchange performance of each flow path is correspondingly improved, the uniformity of the inlet-outlet temperature difference of each flow path of the heat exchanger is ensured, the outlet temperature of each flow path of the heat exchanger during the cooling and the heating is uniform, the cooling and the heating effects of the heat exchanger are balanced, the cooling and the heating performance of the heat exchanger are improved, and the problem of uneven heat exchange of each flow path in the heat exchanger of the air conditioner in the prior art is solved.
Specifically, the flow direction of the air flow in the casing 2 is a direction close to or away from the support base of the air conditioner.
Preferably, there are three heat exchange areas, and the three heat exchange areas include the second heat exchange area 10 and the first heat exchange area 11 and the third heat exchange area 12 located at both sides of the second heat exchange area 10; the number of the heat exchange pipelines is three, and the three heat exchange pipelines are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the three heat exchange areas; the heat exchange tube section 104 of the first heat exchange zone 11 and the heat exchange tube section 104 of the third heat exchange zone 12 are connected by a connecting tube section 105.
The heat exchange pipe sections 104 of the second heat exchange zone 10 form a first heat exchange pipeline 101 separately, and the refrigerant of the first heat exchange pipeline 101 exchanges heat only in the second heat exchange zone 10; the two heat exchange tube sections 104 and the connecting tube section 105 of the first heat exchange zone 11 and the third heat exchange zone 12 together constitute a second heat exchange line 102. The refrigerant in the second heat exchange pipeline 102 exchanges heat by flowing through the region with the lower airflow velocity and then flows to the region with the higher airflow velocity through the connecting pipe section 105 crossing the second heat exchange zone 10.
Wherein first heat exchange line 101 and second heat exchange line 102 are connected in parallel with each other.
Specifically, the number of the heat exchange parts 1 is two, the two heat exchange parts 1 are arranged in a V-shaped structure, and the opening of the V-shaped structure faces to one side far away from a supporting base surface of the air conditioner; the first heat exchange zone 11 is located on the side of the second heat exchange zone 10 away from the supporting base surface of the air conditioner, and the third heat exchange zone 12 is located on the side of the second heat exchange zone 10 close to the supporting base surface of the air conditioner.
Specifically, the arrangement of the heat exchanger in the casing 2 ensures that the airflow entering the casing 2 can flow out of the casing 2 only after heat exchange by the heat exchanger. The two heat exchanging parts 1 arranged in a V-shaped structure divide the area between the upper air inlet 21 and the fan 3 of the casing 2 into an area A and an area B which are respectively positioned between the two heat exchanging parts 1 and the fan 3 and an area C which is positioned between the upper air inlet 21 and the heat exchanger.
Preferably, the included angle between the heat exchanging part 1 and the side wall of the casing 2 ranges from 15 degrees to 35 degrees. In this way, the heat exchange area of the heat exchanger can be increased by the inclined arrangement between the heat exchanging portion 1 and the side wall of the casing 2. When the contained angle between the lateral wall of heat transfer portion 1 and casing 2 is less than 15 degrees, can lead to the air current velocity of flow distribution of the face of the casing 100 of heat transfer portion 1 serious inhomogeneous, the heat transfer effect is relatively poor, when the contained angle between the lateral wall of heat transfer portion 1 and casing 2 is greater than 35 degrees, can lead to the volume increase of air conditioner because of the increase of the size of horizontal direction.
Preferably, the length of the plate surface of the casing 100 of the heat exchange portion 1 is L, and the length occupied by the second heat exchange zone 10 on the plate surface of the casing 100 is L0, where L0/L is 0.5.

Specifically, the heat exchange portion 1 includes a casing 100, and at least a part of each heat exchange tube segment 104 is located in the casing 100; the heat exchanging portion 1 includes a plurality of heat exchanging tube rows sequentially arranged in a direction perpendicular to the plate surface of the case 100, and any one of the heat exchanging tube rows includes a portion of each heat exchanging tube section 104.
The arrangement of the heat exchange tube banks can ensure that the air flow passing through the heat exchange part 1 exchanges heat with the heat exchange tubes of the heat exchange part 1 as much as possible, so that the temperature of the air flow flowing through the heat exchange part 1 is uniform, and the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger is improved.

Preferably, the projection of the heat exchange tube section 104 of one heat exchange tube row on the plate surface of the shell 100 is staggered with the projection of the heat exchange tube section 104 of the other heat exchange tube row on the plate surface of the shell 100 in two adjacent heat exchange tube rows.
Specifically, the heat exchange portion 1 of the present invention includes two heat exchange tube rows, a projection of the straight tube section 1031 of the U-shaped tube body 103 of one heat exchange tube row on the plate surface of the housing 100 is staggered with a projection of the straight tube section 1031 of the U-shaped tube body 103 of another heat exchange tube row on the plate surface of the housing 100, so that an air flow passing through a gap between the two straight tube sections 1031 of one heat exchange tube row can contact with an outer tube wall of the straight tube section 1031 of another heat exchange tube row to exchange heat, and it is ensured that the air flow passing through the heat exchange portion 1 can exchange heat with the heat exchange tubes of the heat exchange portion 1 as much as possible, so that the temperature of the air flow passing through the heat exchange portion 1 is relatively uniform.

Specifically, the fan 3 is a centrifugal fan, the flow path arrangement of the heat exchanger of the present invention is particularly suitable for an air conditioner using the centrifugal fan, and the flow path arrangement of the heat exchanger can adapt to the air flow distribution of the centrifugal fan, so as to better exert the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger.
Specifically, the first heat exchange pipeline 101 includes a first inlet and outlet 1011 and a second inlet and outlet 1012 arranged at the second heat exchange zone 10; the second heat exchange pipeline 102 includes a third inlet/outlet 1021 and a fourth inlet/outlet 1022, wherein the third inlet/outlet 1021 is located in the third heat exchange area 12, and the fourth inlet/outlet 1022 is located in the first heat exchange area 11. As the opposite airflow directions in the cooling operation mode and the heating operation mode result in the exchange of positions of the windward side and the leeward side and the exchange of airflow velocity distribution, the first inlet/outlet 1011, the second inlet/outlet 1012, the third inlet/outlet 1021, and the fourth inlet/outlet 1022 can be used as a refrigerant inlet or a refrigerant outlet, and particularly, the switching is performed according to the switching of the operation modes.
In the heat exchanger, except for the second heat exchange zone 10, the refrigerant flows through the region with lower airflow velocity first and then flows through the region with higher airflow velocity.
As shown in fig. 1, when the air conditioner is in the cooling operation mode, the heat exchanger is located in the air outlet region, the air flow is accelerated and pressurized by the fan 3, then discharged from the upper outlet of the fan 3 and reaches the region a or the region B in the casing 2, then continuously flows upwards to exchange heat with the heat exchanger, and the obtained low-temperature air flow reaches the region C in the casing 2, and then discharged from the upper air inlet 21 of the casing 2, which is communicated with the region C, to the outside of the casing 2, so as to cool the indoor space.
As shown in fig. 2, according to the flow characteristics of the air flow, in the air flow velocity distribution of the windward side of the heat exchange portion 1 of the heat exchanger, the air flow velocity of the heat exchange portion 1 gradually increases along the direction away from the supporting base plane of the air conditioner, that is, the air flow velocity at the first heat exchange region 11 is greater than the air flow velocity at the second heat exchange region 10, the air flow velocity at the second heat exchange region 10 is greater than the air flow velocity at the third heat exchange region 12, and the refrigerant in the first heat exchange pipeline 101 flows in from the first inlet and outlet 1011 and flows out from the second inlet and outlet 1012; the refrigerant in the second heat exchange pipeline 102 flows in from the third inlet/outlet 1021, flows through the third heat exchange region 12, flows through the first heat exchange region 11, and flows out from the fourth inlet/outlet 1022.

As shown in fig. 4, because the heat exchanging portion 1 of the heat exchanger is obliquely disposed, distances between each point on the plate surface of the housing 100 of the heat exchanging portion 1 and the air suction port of the fan 3 are different, when the air conditioner is in the heating operation mode, the airflow velocity of the heat exchanging portion 1 gradually decreases along a direction away from the supporting base surface of the air conditioner, that is, the airflow velocity at the first heat exchanging region 11 is smaller than the airflow velocity at the second heat exchanging region 10, the airflow velocity at the second heat exchanging region 10 is smaller than the airflow velocity at the third heat exchanging region 12, and the refrigerant in the first heat exchanging pipeline 101 flows in from the second inlet 1011 and the second outlet 1011 and flows out from the first inlet and the second outlet; the refrigerant in the second heat exchange pipeline 102 flows in through the fourth inlet/outlet 1022, flows through the first heat exchange region 11, flows through the third heat exchange region 12, and flows out through the third inlet/outlet 1021.
