Of course, the length L1Wavelength L of2The value range of the wave height H is not limited to the above, and can be adjusted according to actual needs.
In some exemplary embodiments, substrate 11 is a one-piece structure formed by a 3D metal printing process. The substrate 11 may be made of heat exchange materials such as aluminum alloy and copper alloy.
The flow channel part 112 and the fin part 111 in the tube fin single body 1 are manufactured by adopting an integral forming process, compared with the commonly used finned tube heat exchanger 100 and microchannel heat exchanger 100, the tube expanding and welding process flow is omitted, the production efficiency is improved, the thermal resistance is avoided, and the heat exchange efficiency is improved.
In some exemplary embodiments, the inner diameter (diameter) of the cooling medium channel 113 is not greater than 0.4mm, and the thickness of the fin portion 111 is not greater than 0.4mm.
The thickness of the fin part 111 of the tube fin single body 1 can be set to be 0.4mm or less, the thickness of the fin is too thick, the wind resistance is large, and the cost is high; the fin part 111 is made thinner, so that the wind resistance is reduced, and the fin pitch between the adjacent tube fin units 1 can be reduced to make the heat exchanger 100 more compact while ensuring the same heat exchange amount. The refrigerant channel 113 of the fin unit 1 is a circular hole, and the inner diameter of the refrigerant channel can be set to be 0.4mm or less, so that the refrigerant filling amount in the air conditioning system is reduced, the pipe diameter of the refrigerant channel 113 is small, and the wind resistance of the heat exchanger 100 is also reduced.
It should be understood that the coolant channels 113 on the fin unit 1 may be circular holes or other shapes, such as oval.

If a plurality of flow path portions 112 are provided, the plurality of flow path portions 112 may be arranged at equal intervals. The thickness of the flow path portion 112 is larger than that of the fin portion 111 so that the surface of the flow path portion 112 protrudes from the surface of the fin portion 111.
As shown in fig. 1, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a heat exchanger 100, including: the device comprises a first collecting pipe 2, a second collecting pipe 3 and a plurality of tube fin monomers 1, wherein the tube fin monomers 1 are arranged in parallel, the wave bands, protruding towards each other, of two adjacent tube fin monomers 1 are mutually abutted, one end of each tube fin monomer 1 is connected with the first collecting pipe 2, and the other end of each tube fin monomer 1 is connected with the second collecting pipe 3. The first collecting pipe 2 is provided with a first inlet and a first outlet, and the second collecting pipe 3 is provided with a second inlet and a second outlet.
In the heat exchanger 100, a first collecting pipe 2 and a second collecting pipe 3 are arranged oppositely, a plurality of tube fin single bodies 1 are arranged between the first collecting pipe 2 and the second collecting pipe 3 in parallel, and two ends of the plurality of tube fin single bodies 1 are connected with the first collecting pipe 2 and the second collecting pipe 3 respectively. When the air conditioner including the heat exchanger 100 operates, the refrigerant enters the first header 2 from the first inlet/outlet 21, then is distributed to flow into the refrigerant channel 113 of each fin unit 1, is evaporated or condensed, exchanges heat with external air, then flows into the second header 3, and finally flows out from the second inlet/outlet 31.
In a plurality of tube fin units 1 arranged in parallel, the convex wave bands of two adjacent tube fin units 1 are mutually abutted, that is, the rising wave band (such as a wave peak or a position deviating from the wave peak) of the corrugated sheet of one tube fin unit 1 is contacted with the falling wave band (such as a wave trough or a position deviating from the wave trough) of the corrugated sheet of the adjacent tube fin unit 1, so as to form a support for the tube fin units 1, ensure that the distance between two adjacent tube fin units 1 is unchanged, and improve the heat exchange capability of the heat exchanger 100.
In some exemplary embodiments, two adjacent fin units 1 are symmetrically disposed about a symmetry line, and the symmetry line is parallel to the first direction along which the cooling medium channel 113 extends (see fig. 4).
The plurality of tube fin units 1 arranged in parallel have the same structure, but when the tube fin units are assembled, two adjacent tube fin units 1 are reversely installed. Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the three fin units 1a, 1b, 1c are identical in structure and are arranged in sequence (only half of the upper and lower fin units 1a and 1c are shown in fig. 3). The state of the tube-fin unit 1b is as shown in fig. 3, and the tube- fin units 1a and 1c adjacent to the tube-fin unit 1b can be obtained by turning 180 degrees in a first direction along which the cooling medium channel 113 extends from an initial state (the same state as that of the tube-fin unit 1 b), so that after the heat exchanger is assembled and formed, the adjacent tube- fin units 1a and 1b are symmetrically arranged about a symmetry line (parallel to the first direction along which the cooling medium channel 113 extends), and the adjacent tube- fin units 1b and 1c are symmetrically arranged about a symmetry line (parallel to the first direction along which the cooling medium channel 113 extends).
As shown in fig. 2 (only a half structure of the upper and lower fin units 1a and 1c is shown), after the heat exchanger is assembled, a contact point (support point) P1 can be formed between the adjacent fin unit 1a and fin unit 1b, and a contact point (support point) P2 can be formed between the adjacent fin unit 1b and fin unit 1c, at this time, the support structures are provided between the adjacent fin units 1 (e.g., between the fin unit 1a and fin unit 1b, and between the fin unit 1b and fin unit 1 c), and the 3D metal printing manufacturing requirements can be met.
In some exemplary embodiments, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the first header 2, the plurality of fin units 1, and the second header 3 are a unitary structure formed by a 3D metal printing process, and the fin portions 111 or the flow passage portions 112 of the fin units 1 are disposed in contact with the fin portions 111 or the flow passage portions 112 of the adjacent fin units 1.
The two ends of the tube fin single body 1 are respectively connected with the first collecting pipe 2 and the second collecting pipe 3, the first collecting pipe 2, the plurality of tube fin single bodies 1 and the second collecting pipe 3 form an integrated structure in an integral 3D printing mode, the assembling step and the assembling error of the heat exchanger 100 are omitted, and the improvement of the production efficiency and the heat exchange effect is facilitated. Because the heat exchanger 100 is integrally formed by a 3D printing method, the contact points (support points) between two adjacent fin units 1 may be: the contact point between the fin part 111 or the flow channel part 112 of one tube fin unit 1 and the fin part 111 or the flow channel part 112 of another adjacent tube fin unit 1, that is, the contact point on the tube fin unit 1 can be staggered with the flow channel part 112 or does not need to be staggered with the flow channel part 112, and the deformation of the internal refrigerant channel 113 caused by the contact support of the flow channel part 112 can not affect the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant. As shown in fig. 2, the contact point (support point) P1 between the fin unit 1a and the fin unit 1b may be offset from the flow path portions 112 on the fin unit 1a and the fin unit 1b or may not be offset from the flow path portions 112 on the fin unit 1a and the fin unit 1 b; the contact point (support point) P2 between the single tube fin 1b and the single tube fin 1c can be offset from the flow channel portions 112 on the single tube fin 1b and the single tube fin 1c or the flow channel portions 112 on the single tube fin 1b and the single tube fin 1c are not required to be offset, and the refrigerant channels 113 on the single tube fin 1a, the single tube fin 1b and the single tube fin 1c are not deformed.
In other exemplary embodiments, the first header 2, the plurality of tube fin units 1 and the second header 3 are in a split assembly structure, one end of each of the plurality of tube fin units 1 is inserted into the first header 2, the other end of each of the plurality of tube fin units 1 is inserted into the second header 3, and the fin portions 111 of two adjacent tube fin units 1 are in contact.
The first collecting pipe 2, the plurality of tube fin monomers 1 and the second collecting pipe 3 can be of a split type assembly structure, that is, the first collecting pipe 2, the plurality of tube fin monomers 1 and the second collecting pipe 3 can be manufactured and formed respectively (for example, the plurality of tube fin monomers 1 can be formed by a 3D metal printing process respectively), and then one ends of the plurality of tube fin monomers 1 are inserted into the first collecting pipe 2, and the other ends of the plurality of tube fin monomers 1 are inserted into the second collecting pipe 3, so as to assemble the heat exchanger 100. In the assembled heat exchanger 100, the rising wave band of the corrugated sheet of one tube fin unit 1 is abutted against the falling wave band of the corrugated sheet of the adjacent tube fin unit 1 to support the adjacent tube fin unit 1. At this time, the contact points (support points) between two adjacent tube fin units 1 are: the contact points between the fin parts 111 of two adjacent tube fin units 1, namely the contact points on the tube fin units 1 need to stagger the flow channel parts 112, so that the deformation of the internal refrigerant channel 113 caused by the contact support of the flow channel parts 112 is avoided, and the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant is not influenced.
In some exemplary embodiments, the fin unit 1, the first header 2, and the second header 3 may be made of heat exchange material such as aluminum alloy, copper alloy, and the like.
In some exemplary embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, an air duct 12 is formed between two adjacent fin units 1, and the air duct 12 is gradually inclined downward along the flow direction of the wind.
An air duct 12 is formed between every two adjacent tube fin units 1, the corrugated structure on the tube fin units 1 can improve the turbulence degree of air flowing through the air duct 12, and the heat exchange capacity of the heat exchanger 100 can be improved, and for the heat exchanger 100 comprising the flat-plate-type tube fin units 1, the heat exchange efficiency can be improved by about 2%.
The corrugations on the tube fin single bodies 1 are oblique corrugations (namely, 0 degrees < alpha < 90 degrees), and along the flowing direction of wind, the air duct 12 between two adjacent tube fin single bodies 1 is gradually inclined downwards, so that under the action of negative pressure of the fan 4, air flow flows downwards along the air duct 12 in an oblique way (the flowing direction of the air flow is shown by curved arrows in fig. 6), when the heat exchanger 100 is used as an evaporator, liquid drops condensed on the surfaces of fins or defrosting water has a component in the gravity direction, and the drainage performance of the heat exchanger 100 is improved. In addition, the length of the air duct 12 is lengthened due to the arrangement of the oblique corrugations, which is beneficial to improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger 100.
When the corrugation on the tube fin unit 1 is non-oblique (i.e. α =0 °), the air duct 12 between two adjacent tube fin units 1 may extend in the horizontal direction.
In some exemplary embodiments, the sheet distance S between two adjacent tube fin units 1 is: s is more than or equal to 1.2mm and less than or equal to 1.6mm. Such as: the sheet spacing S may be: 1.3mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, etc.
The relationship between two adjacent tube fin monomers 1 is as follows: one tube fin unit 1 is rotated 180 degrees along a central line parallel to the refrigerant channel 113 to form an adjacent fin unit, and therefore, as shown in fig. 2, two tube fin units 1a and 1c spaced by one tube fin unit 1b are symmetrical, and the distance between the tube fin units 1a and 1c is kept the same at different positions, so that the fin pitch S can be set to be half of the distance between the tube fin units 1a and 1 c.
The distance between the tube fin units 1 can be determined according to the determined thickness of the fin parts 111, the number of the refrigerant channels 113 and the inner diameter of the refrigerant channels 113, and the distance between the tube fin units 1 can be selected to be proper under the condition that the wind resistance is not increased. The fin distance between the adjacent tube fin monomers 1 is set to be 1.2mm-1.6mm, so that the heat exchange capability of the heat exchanger 100 can be improved, and the wind resistance can be reduced.
