Description

The insertion depth of arm do the ultra-fine pipeline thermal interchanger that has nothing in common with each other

Technical field

The present invention relates to the arm insert structure in the collector in a kind of ultra-fine pipeline (micro channel) heat exchanger (Micro Channel HeatExchanger), the present invention can regulate the distribution of cold-producing medium according to the aridity of fluid.

Background technology

In general, heat exchanger application is raising or is reducing in the air regulators such as the air conditioner of indoor temperature or warm-air drier.Fig. 1 is the side view of the outward appearance of heat exchanger, and Fig. 2 is the exploded view of respectively forming structure of heat exchanger, and Fig. 3 is the profile of the arm among Fig. 2.

Can learn that existing heat exchanger is by constituting with the lower part with reference to above-mentioned accompanying drawing, that is: be positioned at upper header 2 corresponding to the top of lower header 1; Several arms 3 between above-mentioned upper header 2 and lower header 1; Be formed on the pin 6 between above-mentioned each arm 3.In general, in order to improve heat exchanger effectiveness, the pin of sheet material shape is housed on the outer surface that the arm that refrigeration machine flows through is arranged of heat exchanger, can realizes heat exchange to greatest extent by this structure.Above-mentioned lower header 1 cylindrical shape, its inside is hollow, a side that has constituted the outer peripheral portion of its outward appearance has formed several and has been used for inserting and the fixing header aperture 4 of arm 3, and these header aperture 4 along the length direction of lower header 1 at a distance of identical distance.

Have the shape identical with upper header 2 that above-mentioned lower header 1 is positioned at its top accordingly here, with above-mentioned lower header 1.Above-mentioned each arm 3 is separately fixed in above-mentioned each header aperture 4 along the two ends of its length direction, thereby above-mentioned each arm 3 is arranged side by side along the length direction of collector 1,2.

The face that moving air couples together the axis on the length direction of two collectors 1,2 relatively keeps certain ground, angle of inclination to flow, thereby air can flow through the gap of each arm 3 and two collectors 1,2.Above-mentioned arm 3 has certain length, thickness and width, wherein length is meant its distance between the two ends on two collectors 1,2 of being fixed on, thickness be meant its with the flow direction of moving air keep distance on the vertical direction, width be meant it with the direction of the flow direction keeping parallelism of moving air on distance.Above-mentioned arm 3 is at right angles tetragonal tabular, and it has the width and the very thin thickness that can be inserted in two collectors 1,2, and its inside has formed the pipeline (channel) 5 of several hollows.

In addition, above-mentioned each arm 3 is being fixed on two collectors 1,2 with the mode of the flow direction keeping parallelism of moving air on the width with each arm 3.Several pipelines 5 that form on above-mentioned each arm 3 have small sectional area on the direction vertical with the length direction of arm 3, length direction along arm 3 then has certain length, and they are arranged in proper order along the flow direction of moving air.

Be fixed on two collectors 1,2 owing to have the both-side ends of the arm 3 of said structure, thereby above-mentioned arm 3 is connected with the hollow spaces that form in collector 1,2 inside.And, can make the space that moving air flows through and a plurality of pins 6 have been installed in order to form in the gap of above-mentioned each arm 3.Be above-mentioned a plurality of pin 6 owing to be the tabular of very thin thickness, so be installed between each arm 3 with can being bent into several " it " fonts.Though above-mentioned pin 6 can fixedly mount with multiple shape, in general preferably its formed space can make the flow impedance of moving air reach minimum.

Fig. 4 is the side cut away view that arm is inserted in the state in the collector in the prior art.

As shown in Figure 4, several arms 3 can be divided into several nest of tubes, are base unit with above-mentioned each nest of tubes then, and the front and back of each nest of tubes are replacing and are provided with partition, are used for changing the flow direction of the cold-producing medium that flows to lower header 1 and upper header 2.That is: the 1st partition is equipped with at the rearmost end place below the 1st nest of tubes, be equipped with the 2nd and cut off at rearmost end place above the 2nd nest of tubes, be equipped with the 3rd and cut off at rearmost end place below the 3rd nest of tubes, and be equipped with the 4th and cut off at the rearmost end place above the 4th nest of tubes.

Possess in the heat exchanger that cuts off structure this, the cold-producing medium that at first flows into lower header 1 can rise by the 1st nest of tubes, cold-producing medium after the rising can move horizontally along upper header 2, is subjected to the 2nd interference effect that cuts off afterwards, thereby descends downwards along the 2nd nest of tubes.Afterwards, rise and descend along Zhi Guanqun repeatedly in aforesaid mode.And in the process that moves along arm 3 by this way, heat can conduct to the pin 6 that is fixed on the above-mentioned arm 3, realizes effective heat exchange by the surface and the moving air of above-mentioned pin 6 at last.

In general, when ultra-fine pipeline thermal interchanger was used as evaporimeter, what flow into collector 1,2 inside was the fluid-mixing of gas and liquid.For the gas-liquid two-phase flow (two phaseflow) in the collector internal flow, when its aridity was low, because the momentum (momentum) that flows is little, thereby liquid can focus on the entrance area of collector; And when its aridity was higher, because the momentum that flows is bigger, thereby liquid can focus on the downstream part that fluid flows.In addition, if do the insertion depth of arm all identically and all very shallow, flowing owing to can not be subjected to the influence of arm of fluid so, thereby can concentrate downstream.On the contrary, if do the insertion depth of arm all identically and all very dark, so by recirculation and the immixture of fluid in collector, the situation that can have only liquid downstream to move.

That is to say that the structure of aforesaid existing heat exchanger is degree of depth A, A ', the A that is inserted in the arm in the collector 1,2 " all identical.Therefore can there be following problem in the existing heat exchanger that has this structure: owing to gas-liquid can not be shunted equably, thereby can reduce the efficient of evaporimeter.

Summary of the invention

The present invention designs in order to solve aforesaid problem, and purpose is by the refrigerant pipe that several can make in above-mentioned collector the cold-producing medium uniform distribution of flowing is being set on the heat exchanger, thereby improves the efficient of heat exchanger significantly.

The invention provides a kind of insertion depth arm do the ultra-fine pipeline thermal interchanger that has nothing in common with each other, it is characterized in that comprise with the lower part constituting: the collector of hollow can make cold-producing medium flow through; Several refrigerant pipes are inserted in the above-mentioned collector with the different degree of depth respectively, can the cold-producing medium that flow in above-mentioned collector be distributed; Cut off, be arranged between the above-mentioned refrigerant pipe of above-mentioned collector inside.

Adopt the insertion depth arm of the present invention to do to such an extent that the ultra-fine pipeline thermal interchanger that has nothing in common with each other can reach following effect: can cold-producing medium be flowed equably according to the aridity of the fluid in the heat exchanger by the degree of depth that adjusting is inserted in the arm in the collector.
