Description

本発明は、蒸発器や凝縮器として用いられるプレート式熱交換器に関する。   The present invention relates to a plate type heat exchanger used as an evaporator or a condenser.

従来から、プレート式熱交換器は、流体を蒸発させる蒸発器や、流体を凝縮させる凝縮器として多用されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, plate heat exchangers are widely used as an evaporator for evaporating a fluid and a condenser for condensing a fluid (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

プレート式熱交換器は、図17乃至図19に示す如く、複数の伝熱プレート101…を備える。この種のプレート式熱交換器100では、複数の伝熱プレート101…が第一方向に重ね合わされることによって、蒸発又は凝縮の対象となる第一流体Aを流通させる第一流路Raと、第一流体Aを蒸発又は凝縮させる第二流体B(第一流体Aとの熱交換の対象となる第二流体B)を流通させる第二流路Rbと、第一流路Raのみに連通し、第一流路Raに第一流体Aを流入させる第一流体供給路Ra1と、第一流路Raのみに連通し、第一流路Raから第一流体Aを流出させる第一流体排出路Ra2と、第二流路Rbのみに連通し、第二流路Rbに第二流体Bを流入させる第二流体供給路Rb1と、第二流路Rbのみに連通し、第二流路Rbから第二流体Bを流出させる第二流体排出路Rb2とが形成される。   The plate type heat exchanger includes a plurality of heat transfer plates 101, as shown in FIGS. In the plate type heat exchanger 100 of this type, a plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are stacked in a first direction to form a first flow path Ra for flowing a first fluid A to be evaporated or condensed, A second channel Rb for circulating a second fluid B (a second fluid B to be subjected to heat exchange with the first fluid A) that evaporates or condenses the first fluid A, and only in communication with the first channel Ra; A first fluid supply passage Ra1 that allows the first fluid A to flow into the first passage Ra, and a first fluid discharge passage Ra2 that communicates with only the first passage Ra and that allows the first fluid A to flow out of the first passage Ra The second fluid supply passage Rb1 is in communication with only the flow passage Rb and allows the second fluid B to flow into the second flow passage Rb, and is in communication with only the second flow passage Rb, and the second fluid B is communicated from the second flow passage Rb. A second fluid discharge passage Rb2 to be discharged is formed.

より具体的に説明すると、複数の伝熱プレート101…のそれぞれは、第一方向に第一面と該第一面の反対側の第二面とを有する。伝熱プレート101の第一面及び第二面のそれぞれには、複数の凹条及び凸条(採番しない)が形成されている。   More specifically, each of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 has a first surface in the first direction and a second surface opposite to the first surface. On each of the first surface and the second surface of the heat transfer plate 101, a plurality of concave streaks and convex streaks (not numbered) are formed.

複数の伝熱プレート101のそれぞれは、第一方向に貫通した第一孔102であって、第一方向と直交する第二方向の一端側の領域のうち、第一方向及び第二方向と直交する第三方向の一端部に配置された第一孔102と、第一方向に貫通した第二孔103であって、第二方向の他端側の領域のうちの第三方向の一端部に配置された第二孔103と、第一方向に貫通した第三孔104であって、第二方向の他端側の領域のうちの第三方向の他端部に配置された第三孔104と、第一方向に貫通した第四孔105であって、第二方向の一端側の領域のうちの第三方向の他端部に配置された第四孔105とを有する(図15参照)。   Each of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 is a first hole 102 penetrating in a first direction, which is orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction in a region on one end side of the second direction orthogonal to the first direction First hole 102 disposed at one end in the third direction and the second hole 103 penetrating in the first direction at one end in the third direction of the region on the other end side in the second direction The second hole 103 disposed, and the third hole 104 penetrating in the first direction, and the third hole 104 disposed at the other end in the third direction of the region on the other end side of the second direction And the fourth hole 105 penetrating in the first direction, the fourth hole 105 being disposed at the other end of the third direction in the region on the one end side of the second direction (see FIG. 15) .

これに伴い、複数の伝熱プレート101が重ね合わされることで、隣り合う伝熱プレート101の凸条同士が交差衝合し、隣り合う伝熱プレート101間に第一流路Ra又は第二流路Rbが形成される。この種のプレート式熱交換器100において、第一流路Ra及び第二流路Rbは、伝熱プレート101を境にして交互に形成される。   Along with this, by overlapping the plurality of heat transfer plates 101, the ridges of the adjacent heat transfer plates 101 cross-abut, and the first flow passage Ra or the second flow passage is formed between the adjacent heat transfer plates 101. Rb is formed. In the plate type heat exchanger 100 of this type, the first flow passage Ra and the second flow passage Rb are alternately formed with the heat transfer plate 101 as a boundary.

さらに、複数の伝熱プレート101の第一孔102が第一方向に連なって第一流体供給路Ra1が形成されるとともに、複数の伝熱プレート101の第二孔103が第一方向に連なって第一流体排出路Ra2が形成される。また、複数の伝熱プレート101の第三孔104が第一方向に連なって第二流体供給路Rb1が形成されるとともに、複数の伝熱プレート101の第四孔105が第一方向に連なって第二流体排出路Rb2が形成される。   Furthermore, while the first holes 102 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are continuous in the first direction to form the first fluid supply path Ra1, the second holes 103 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are continuous in the first direction The first fluid discharge path Ra2 is formed. Further, while the third holes 104 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are continuous in the first direction to form the second fluid supply passage Rb1, the fourth holes 105 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are continuous in the first direction A second fluid discharge passage Rb2 is formed.

これに伴い、この種のプレート式熱交換器100において、第一流体供給路Ra1に供給された第一流体Aは、第一流路Raを通って第一流体排出路Ra2に流出するとともに、第二流体供給路Rb1に供給された第二流体Bは、第二流路Rbを通って第二流体排出路Rb2に流出する。これにより、第一流路Raと第二流路Rbとを仕切る伝熱プレート101を介して第一流体Aと第二流体Bとが熱交換する。   Along with this, in the plate type heat exchanger 100 of this type, the first fluid A supplied to the first fluid supply passage Ra1 flows out to the first fluid discharge passage Ra2 through the first passage Ra, and The second fluid B supplied to the second fluid supply passage Rb1 flows out to the second fluid discharge passage Rb2 through the second passage Rb. Thereby, the first fluid A and the second fluid B exchange heat via the heat transfer plate 101 that divides the first flow passage Ra and the second flow passage Rb.

ところで、この種のプレート式熱交換器100では、重ね合わされる伝熱プレート101…の数が多くなると、熱交換に寄与する伝熱面積が広くなり、熱交換性能が高くなるとされている。   By the way, in this type of plate type heat exchanger 100, when the number of heat transfer plates 101 to be stacked increases, the heat transfer area contributing to heat exchange becomes wider, and the heat exchange performance becomes higher.

しかしながら、伝熱プレート101…の数が多くなると、第一流体供給路Ra1、第一流体排出路Ra2、第二流体供給路Rb1、及び第二流体排出路Rb2のそれぞれの第一方向の長さが、重ね合わされる伝熱プレート101…の数に応じて長くなる。   However, when the number of heat transfer plates 101... Increases, the length in the first direction of each of the first fluid supply passage Ra1, the first fluid discharge passage Ra2, the second fluid supply passage Rb1, and the second fluid discharge passage Rb2 However, the length of the heat transfer plates 101...

すなわち、複数の伝熱プレート101…の第一孔102が連なることによって第一流体供給路Ra1が形成されるとともに、第二孔103が連なることによって第一流体排出路Ra2が形成され、複数の伝熱プレート101…の第三孔104が連なることによって第二流体供給路Rb1が形成されるとともに、第四孔105が連なることによって第二流体排出路Rb2が形成されるため、第一流体供給路Ra1、第一流体排出路Ra2、第二流体供給路Rb1、及び第二流体排出路Rb2のそれぞれの流路長は、重ね合わされる伝熱プレート101…の数が多くなれば、その数に応じて長くなる。   That is, the first holes 102 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 101 are connected to form the first fluid supply path Ra1, and the second holes 103 are connected to form the first fluid discharge path Ra2. The third holes 104 of the heat transfer plates 101 are connected to form the second fluid supply passage Rb1, and the fourth holes 105 are connected to form the second fluid discharge passage Rb2. As for the flow path length of each of the path Ra1, the first fluid discharge path Ra2, the second fluid supply path Rb1, and the second fluid discharge path Rb2, if the number of heat transfer plates 101. Depending on the length.

その結果、重ね合わされる伝熱プレート101…の数が多くなると、第一流路Raに第一流体Aを流入させる第一流体供給路Ra1での第一流体Aの流通抵抗が大きくなり、第一流体供給路Ra1において第一流体Aが流通し難くなる。そのため、この種のプレート式熱交換器1では、第一流体供給路Ra1の入口側における第一流路Raへの第一流体Aの流入量と、第一流体供給路Ra1の奥側における第一流路Raへの第一流体Aの流入量とが不均一になる。   As a result, when the number of heat transfer plates 101 to be superimposed increases, the flow resistance of the first fluid A in the first fluid supply passage Ra1 that causes the first fluid A to flow into the first flow passage Ra increases, and the first It becomes difficult for the first fluid A to flow in the fluid supply path Ra1. Therefore, in the plate type heat exchanger 1 of this type, the inflow of the first fluid A to the first flow passage Ra at the inlet side of the first fluid supply passage Ra1 and the first rank at the back side of the first fluid supply passage Ra1. The inflow of the first fluid A to the passage Ra becomes uneven.

すなわち、この種のプレート式熱交換器100は、第一方向に並ぶ複数の第一流路Ra…に対する第一流体Aの分配ムラが生じる。その結果、この種のプレート式熱交換器100では、伝熱プレート101…の数を多くしても(第一流路Raの数を多くしても)、熱交換性能(蒸発性能或いは凝縮性能)を高めるのに限界がある。   That is, in this type of plate type heat exchanger 100, distribution unevenness of the first fluid A to the plurality of first flow paths Ra arranged in the first direction occurs. As a result, in this type of plate type heat exchanger 100, even if the number of heat transfer plates 101 is increased (even if the number of first flow paths Ra is increased), the heat exchange performance (evaporation performance or condensation performance) There is a limit to raising

That is, the first fluid A flows out from the open portions DS1 at different positions in the first direction in a state where the flow distance of the first fluid A from the branch portion US2 to the first flow path Ra is the same or substantially the same. Do.

従って、第一流体Aは、第一方向の複数箇所に分配され、複数の第一流路Raのそれぞれに対して略等しい状態で流入する。よって、本実施形態に係るプレート式熱交換器1は、複数の第一流路Raに対して蒸発又は凝縮の対象となる第一流体Aを均等に供給でき、熱交換性能を高めることができる。   Therefore, the first fluid A is distributed to a plurality of locations in the first direction, and flows into the plurality of first flow paths Ra in substantially the same state. Therefore, the plate type heat exchanger 1 according to the present embodiment can uniformly supply the first fluid A to be evaporated or condensed to the plurality of first flow paths Ra, and can improve the heat exchange performance.

本実施形態において、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれは、第二流路Rbを挟んで第一方向に並ぶ第一流路Raに対応して配置され、隣り合う伝熱プレート2,3の貫通孔(第一孔)202,302の周囲に挟まれている。このようにすれば、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれが、伝熱プレート2,3によって拘束される。従って、複数の流路形成部材4…の位置ズレが防止される結果、複数の流路形成部材4…の貫通孔によって形成される第一流体供給路Ra1の連通性が確実に確保される。   In the present embodiment, each of the plurality of flow passage forming members 4 is disposed corresponding to the first flow passage Ra aligned in the first direction across the second flow passage Rb, and the adjacent heat transfer plates 2, 3 The through holes (first holes) 202 and 302 are sandwiched. In this way, each of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 is restrained by the heat transfer plates 2 and 3. Therefore, as a result of preventing displacement of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 ..., the communication of the first fluid supply path Ra1 formed by the through holes of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 ... is reliably ensured.

本実施形態において、下流系統DSは、上流系統USの分岐流路US3,US3の先端と直接的又は間接的に連通する最下流分岐部DS2であって、第一方向と直交する方向における導入部US1及び分岐流路US3と異なる位置で第一方向に貫通した最下流分岐部DS2と、第一方向における最下流分岐部DS2を境にした一方側の領域(第一領域)S3及び他方側の領域(第二領域)S4のそれぞれで第一方向に延びる一対の最下流分岐流路DS3,DS3とを含み、最下流分岐流路DS3,DS3のそれぞれは、最下流分岐部DS2と連通する基端と、該基端の反対側の先端であって、開放部DS1と連通する先端とを有する。   In the present embodiment, the downstream system DS is the most downstream branch section DS2 that directly or indirectly communicates with the tip of the branch flow path US3, US3 of the upstream system US, and the introduction section in the direction orthogonal to the first direction A region (first region) S3 on one side bordering the most downstream branch portion DS2 penetrating in the first direction at a position different from US1 and the branch flow path US3 and the most downstream branch portion DS2 in the first direction Each of the regions (second regions) S4 includes a pair of most downstream branch channels DS3 and DS3 extending in the first direction, and each of the most downstream branch channels DS3 and DS3 is a base that communicates with the most downstream branch portion DS2. It has an end and a tip opposite to the proximal end and in communication with the opening DS1.

上記構成によれば、第一方向に重ね合わされた複数の伝熱プレート2,3のうちの第一方向の中間部にある伝熱プレート2,3と対応する位置を基準とした第一方向の一方側の領域(第一領域)S1及び他方側の領域(第二領域)S2のそれぞれにある領域を更に第一方向で細分化した二つの領域(最下流分岐部DS2を境にした一方側の領域(第一領域)S3及び他方側の領域(第二領域)S4)のそれぞれに順々に分岐した態様で形成される。   According to the above configuration, the heat transfer plates 2 and 3 at the middle portion in the first direction of the plurality of heat transfer plates 2 and 3 stacked in the first direction are based on the position corresponding to the heat transfer plates 2 and 3 in the first direction. Two regions (one side bordering the most downstream branch portion DS2) obtained by further dividing the region in each of the region (first region) S1 on the one side and the region (second region) S2 on the other side in the first direction Of the first region S3 and the other region (second region) S4) are formed in such a manner as to sequentially branch.

これにより、第一流体供給路Ra1を流通する第一流体Aは、上流系統USだけでなく、下流系統DSにおいても第一方向に順々に分岐した態様で流通した上で第一流路Raに到達する。すなわち、第一流体Aは、第一方向において異なる位置にある第一流路Raに流入するが、分岐部US2から第一流路Raに到達するまでの距離が同一又は略同一になる。   As a result, the first fluid A flowing through the first fluid supply passage Ra1 is circulated not only in the upstream system US but also in the downstream system DS in the first branch direction in a branched manner in the first direction to the first flow passage Ra. To reach. That is, although the first fluid A flows into the first flow path Ra located at different positions in the first direction, the distances from the branch portion US2 to the first flow path Ra are the same or substantially the same.

従って、第一流体Aは、第一方向の複数箇所に分配され、複数の第一流路Raのそれぞれに対して略等しい状態で流入する。よって、本実施形態に係るプレート式熱交換器1は、複数の第一流路Raに対して蒸発又は凝縮の対象となる第一流体Aを均等に供給でき、熱交換性能を高めることができる。   Therefore, the first fluid A is distributed to a plurality of locations in the first direction, and flows into the plurality of first flow paths Ra in substantially the same state. Therefore, the plate type heat exchanger 1 according to the present embodiment can uniformly supply the first fluid A to be evaporated or condensed to the plurality of first flow paths Ra, and can improve the heat exchange performance.

なお、本発明は、上記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で、適宜変更を加え得ることは勿論である。   The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and it is needless to say that appropriate modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention.

上記実施形態において、第一流路Raに第一流体Aを供給する第一流体供給路Ra1を複数の流路形成部材4…で構成したが、例えば、第二流路Rbに対して第二流体Bを均等に供給されるような場合には、第二流体供給路Rb1についても、複数の流路形成部材で構成してもよい。この場合の複数の流路形成部材は、第一流体供給路Ra1を形成する流路形成部材4と同様に構成されることは言うまでもない。   In the above embodiment, the first fluid supply path Ra1 for supplying the first fluid A to the first flow path Ra is configured by the plurality of flow path forming members 4... But, for example, the second fluid for the second flow path Rb In the case where B is uniformly supplied, the second fluid supply passage Rb1 may also be constituted by a plurality of flow passage forming members. It goes without saying that the plurality of flow path forming members in this case are configured in the same manner as the flow path forming member 4 that forms the first fluid supply path Ra1.

上記実施形態において、複数の流路形成部材4…の形成した第一流体供給路Ra1の下流系統DSが最下流分岐部DS2及び一対の最下流分岐流路DS3,DS3を備えたが、これに限定されない。例えば、上流系統USの分岐流路US3,US3のそれぞれの先端に対し、下流系統DSの開放部DS1が接続され、第一流体供給路Ra1が一か所(分岐部US2)で第一方向に分岐した形態に形成され、二か所の開放部DS1,DS1から第一流路Raに向けて第一流体Aを流出させるようにしてもよい。   In the above embodiment, the downstream system DS of the first fluid supply passage Ra1 formed by the plurality of flow passage forming members 4 has the most downstream branch portion DS2 and the pair of most downstream branch passages DS3, DS3 It is not limited. For example, the open end DS1 of the downstream system DS is connected to each tip of the branch flow paths US3 and US3 of the upstream system US, and the first fluid supply path Ra1 is in one direction (branch area US2) in the first direction The first fluid A may flow out from the two open portions DS1 and DS1 toward the first flow passage Ra.

また、複数の流路形成部材4…の形成した第一流体供給路Ra1の下流系統DSが、上流系統USの分岐流路US3と最下流分岐部DS2とを流体的に接続する中間の分岐系統であって、第一流体Aを第一方向に分配する少なくとも一つの分岐系統をさらに備えてもよい。   In addition, a downstream branch system DS of the first fluid supply passage Ra1 formed by the plurality of flow passage forming members 4 ... is an intermediate branch system in which the branch passage US3 of the upstream system US and the most downstream branch portion DS2 are fluidly connected And at least one branch system for distributing the first fluid A in the first direction.

この場合、中間の分岐系統は、上流側の流路(例えば、上流系統USの分岐流路US3)に接続される中間分岐部と、中間分岐部と連通し且つ中間分岐部を境にした一方側の領域(第一領域)及び他方の領域(第二領域)のそれぞれで第一方向に延びる一対の中間分岐流路であって、自身の延びる一方側の領域(第一領域)及び他方の領域(第二領域)の第一方向の中間部に先端(終端)を有し、該先端に下流系統DS内の下流側の部位(例えば、開放部DS1)に接続される一対の中間分岐流路とを備えればよい。なお、言うまでもないが、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれにおいて、分岐系統の数に応じた数の貫通孔が異なる位置に配置されることは勿論である。   In this case, the middle branch system is in communication with the middle branch connected to the upstream flow path (for example, the branch flow path US3 of the upstream system US) and the middle branch, and is bordered by the middle branch A pair of middle branch flow channels extending in the first direction in each of the side area (first area) and the other area (second area), which is the one side area (first area) and the other of which one side extends A pair of middle branch flow having a tip (end) at the middle in the first direction of the region (second region) and connected to the downstream side portion (for example, open portion DS1) in the downstream system DS at the tip It is sufficient to have a path. Needless to say, it goes without saying that in each of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 ..., the number of through holes corresponding to the number of branch systems is disposed at different positions.

上記実施形態において、流路形成部材4…の本体部40及び嵌合部41の外周400,410が円弧部400a,410a及び直線部400b,410bを含み、該外周400,410の円弧部400a,410aの中心CP1,CP2から直線部400b,410bまでの最短の直線距離L1,L2が第一孔202,302の半径よりも設定されることで、開放部DS1から流出した第一流体Aが第一方向に広がりつつ、該開放部DS1の直近にある複数の第一流路Raに流入する(第一流体供給路Ra1において分配された第一流体Aが複数の第一流路Raの全てに流入する)ようにしたが、これに限定されない。   In the above embodiment, the outer peripheries 400 and 410 of the main body portion 40 of the flow path forming member 4 and the fitting portion 41 include arc portions 400a and 410a and straight portions 400b and 410b. The shortest linear distances L1 and L2 from the centers CP1 and CP2 of 410a to the straight portions 400b and 410b are set more than the radius of the first holes 202 and 302, so that the first fluid A flowing out from the open portion DS1 is While expanding in one direction, it flows into a plurality of first flow paths Ra in the immediate vicinity of the opening portion DS1 (the first fluid A distributed in the first fluid supply path Ra1 flows into all of the plurality of first flow paths Ra ) But it is not limited thereto.

例えば、図13及び図14に示す如く、複数の流路形成部材4…は、本体部40の外周縁部が隣り合う伝熱プレート2,3に挟まれることを前提に、本体部40の中心CP1から外周400までの直線距離(円形の場合には、半径)r1が全周の何れの箇所においても第一孔202,302の半径よりも長くなるように形成されてもよい。この場合において、複数の流路形成部材4…の外径は、第一孔202,302の孔形状と相似形状にすることが好ましい。   For example, as shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14, the plurality of flow path forming members 4... Center the main body 40 on the premise that the outer peripheral edge of the main body 40 is sandwiched between the heat transfer plates 2 and 3 adjacent to each other. The linear distance (in the case of a circle, the radius) r1 from CP1 to the outer periphery 400 may be formed to be longer than the radius of the first holes 202 and 302 at any point on the entire periphery. In this case, it is preferable that the outer diameters of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 be similar to the shape of the first holes 202 and 302.

この場合、図15に示す如く、第一方向に連なる複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれは、上記実施形態と同様に、貫通孔(第一貫通孔420、第二貫通孔421、第三貫通孔422、第四貫通孔423、第五貫通孔424、第六貫通孔425、第七貫通孔426、第八貫通孔427の少なくとも何れか一つ)を有することで、第一方向に間隔をあけて配置される特定の流路形成部材4…の開放部DS1のみが対応する単一の第一流路Raと連通する。   In this case, as shown in FIG. 15, each of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 connected in the first direction is a through hole (a first through hole 420, a second through hole 421, a third By providing at least any one of the through holes 422, the fourth through holes 423, the fifth through holes 424, the sixth through holes 425, the seventh through holes 426, and the eighth through holes 427, the distance in the first direction Only the open portion DS1 of the specific flow path forming member 4... Disposed open opens in communication with the corresponding single first flow path Ra.

そのため、他の第一流路Ra(開放部DS1を有していない流路形成部材4…と対応する複数の第一流路Ra)は、伝熱プレート2,3に設けられた貫通孔(採番しない)であって、第一孔202,302から第二方向において離れた位置で第一方向に貫通した貫通孔を介して互いに連通され、その貫通孔によって少なくとも二回ターンし、最下流にある第一流路Raが第一流体排出路Ra2に接続されればよい。   Therefore, the other first flow paths Ra (a plurality of first flow paths Ra corresponding to the flow path forming members 4 not having the open portion DS1) are through holes (numbering) provided in the heat transfer plates 2 and 3 Not communicate with each other via a through hole penetrating in the first direction at a position separated from the first holes 202 and 302 in the second direction, and turn at least twice by the through holes, and are at the most downstream position The first flow passage Ra may be connected to the first fluid discharge passage Ra2.

このようにしても、第一流体供給路Ra1において、第一流体Aが第一方向に少なくとも一回分配された上で、複数の開放部DS1から第一流路Raに向け流出するため、第一流体Aの流通距離は均一又は略均一となる。従って、上記実施形態と同様の作用及び効果を奏することができる。   Even in this case, in the first fluid supply passage Ra1, the first fluid A is distributed at least once in the first direction, and then flows out from the plurality of open parts DS1 toward the first passage Ra. The flow distance of the fluid A is uniform or substantially uniform. Therefore, the same operation and effect as the above embodiment can be achieved.

上記実施形態において、部材配置領域Sの第一方向の中間部にある流路形成部材(上流側基準部材)4が単一の第二貫通孔421を有するとともに、上流側基準部材4の両側にある流路形成部材4が単一の第二貫通孔421と対応する位置に第四貫通孔423を有したが、これに限定されない。   In the above embodiment, the flow path forming member (upstream reference member) 4 at the middle portion in the first direction of the member disposition area S has a single second through hole 421 and on both sides of the upstream reference member 4 Although the certain flow-path formation member 4 had the 4th through-hole 423 in the position corresponding to the single 2nd through-hole 421, it is not limited to this.

例えば、図16に示す如く、部材配置領域Sの第一方向の中間部にある流路形成部材(上流側基準部材)4が、異なる位置に二つの第二貫通孔421を有し、上流側基準部材4の第一方向の一方側の領域(第一領域)S1にある流路形成部材4が二つの第二貫通孔421のうちの一方の第二貫通孔421と対応する位置に第四貫通孔423を有するとともに、上流側基準部材4の第一方向の他方側の領域(第二領域)S2にある流路形成部材4が二つの第二貫通孔421のうちの他方の第二貫通孔421と対応する位置に第四貫通孔423を有してもよい。   For example, as shown in FIG. 16, the flow path forming member (upstream reference member) 4 at the intermediate portion in the first direction of the member disposition area S has two second through holes 421 at different positions, The flow path forming member 4 in the region (first region) S1 on one side in the first direction of the reference member 4 is positioned at a position corresponding to the second through hole 421 of one of the two second through holes 421 The flow passage forming member 4 having the through hole 423 and in the region (second region) S2 on the other side of the upstream reference member 4 in the first direction is the second through hole of the other of the two second through holes 421 A fourth through hole 423 may be provided at a position corresponding to the hole 421.

すなわち、上流系統USは、単一の分岐部US2に対して一対の分岐流路US3が接続された態様に限定されるものではなく、例えば、異なる位置にある分岐部US2のそれぞれに対して何れか一方の分岐流路US3が接続された態様にされてもよい。   That is, the upstream system US is not limited to a mode in which a pair of branch flow paths US3 is connected to a single branch portion US2, and, for example, any one of the branch portions US2 in different positions may be used. Alternatively, one branch flow path US3 may be connected.

また、上流側基準部材4が偶数個の第二貫通孔421(分岐部US2)有し、上流側基準部材4の第一方向の一方側の領域(第一領域)S1にある流路形成部材4が上流側基準部材4の有する第二貫通孔421のうちの半分の第二貫通孔421のそれぞれと対応する位置に第四貫通孔423を有するとともに、上流側基準部材4の第一方向の他方側の領域(第二領域)S2にある流路形成部材4が、上流側基準部材4の有する第二貫通孔421のうちの半分の第二貫通孔421であって、一方側の領域(第一領域S1)の流路形成部材4の第四貫通孔423と対応しない位置にある第二貫通孔421と対応する位置に第四貫通孔423を有してもよい。すなわち、上流系統USにおいて、複数対の分岐流路US3,US3が設けられてもよい。   In addition, the upstream side reference member 4 has an even number of second through holes 421 (branch portion US2), and the flow path forming member is in the region (first region) S1 on one side of the upstream reference member 4 in the first direction. A fourth through hole 423 is provided at a position corresponding to each of the second through holes 421 of half of the second through holes 421 of the upstream side reference member 4 and the first side of the upstream side reference member 4 The flow passage forming member 4 in the other side region (second region) S2 is a half of the second through holes 421 of the second through holes 421 of the upstream side reference member 4, and the one side region The fourth through hole 423 may be provided at a position corresponding to the second through hole 421 which does not correspond to the fourth through hole 423 of the flow passage forming member 4 in the first region S1). That is, in the upstream system US, a plurality of pairs of branch flow paths US3, US3 may be provided.

この場合、各対の分岐流路US3,US3の第一方向の長さ(先端の位置)が異なっていてもよいし、同じであってもよい。この点、下流系統DSの最下流分岐部DS2及び最下流分岐流路DS3も同様である。   In this case, the length in the first direction (the position of the tip) of each pair of branched flow paths US3 and US3 may be different or may be the same. The same applies to the most downstream branch portion DS2 and the most downstream branch channel DS3 of the downstream system DS in this regard.

上記実施形態の流路形成部材4…において、本体部40の第一面のみに嵌合部41が接続されたが、これに限定されない。例えば、本体部40の第一面及び第二面のそれぞれに嵌合部41が接続されてもよい。この場合、第一方向における嵌合部41の厚みは、一つの伝熱プレート2,3の厚みに対応して設定されればよい。   Although the fitting part 41 was connected only to the 1st surface of the main-body part 40 in flow-path formation member 4 ... of the said embodiment, it is not limited to this. For example, the fitting portion 41 may be connected to each of the first surface and the second surface of the main body portion 40. In this case, the thickness of the fitting portion 41 in the first direction may be set to correspond to the thickness of one of the heat transfer plates 2 and 3.

上記実施形態において、流路形成部材4(本体部40)の外周縁部が隣り合う伝熱プレート2,3の貫通孔(第一孔202,302)の周囲に挟まれたが、これに限定されない。例えば、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれの外径が、伝熱プレート2,3の貫通孔(第一孔)202,302の孔径よりも小さく設定され、第一方向に連なった複数の流路形成部材4…が、第一方向に連なる複数の伝熱プレート2,3の貫通孔(第一孔)202,302内に挿入されてもよい。   In the above embodiment, the outer peripheral edge portion of the flow path forming member 4 (main body portion 40) is sandwiched around the through holes (first holes 202 and 302) of the heat transfer plates 2 and 3 adjacent to each other, but is limited thereto I will not. For example, the outer diameters of the plurality of flow passage forming members 4 are set to be smaller than the hole diameters of the through holes (first holes) 202 and 302 of the heat transfer plates 2 and 3, and the plurality of The flow path forming members 4 may be inserted into the through holes (first holes) 202 and 302 of the plurality of heat transfer plates 2 and 3 connected in the first direction.

この場合、第一方向で隣り合う流路形成部材4同士が機械的に接続されることが好ましく、例えば、隣り合う流路形成部材4,4同士が凹凸嵌合によって接続されてもよい。   In this case, it is preferable that the flow path forming members 4 adjacent to each other in the first direction be mechanically connected. For example, the adjacent flow path forming members 4 and 4 may be connected by concavo-convex fitting.

また、第一方向に連なった複数の流路形成部材4…(一体化した複数の流路形成部材4)のうちの両端にある流路形成部材4は、最も端にある伝熱プレート2,3或いはエンドプレート5,6に支持されてもよい。但し、導入部US1のみに第一流体Aが供給されるように、最も端にある流路形成部材4は、最も端にある伝熱プレート2或いはエンドプレート5と液密に接続され、これらの貫通孔は、導入部US1と対応したサイズに設定されることは勿論である。   Further, the flow passage forming members 4 at both ends of the plurality of flow passage forming members 4 connected in the first direction (a plurality of integrated flow passage forming members 4) are the heat transfer plate 2 at the end, 3 or end plates 5, 6 may be supported. However, in order to supply the first fluid A only to the introducing portion US1, the flow passage forming member 4 at the end is connected in a fluid tight manner to the heat transfer plate 2 or the end plate 5 at the end. Of course, the through hole is set to a size corresponding to the introduction portion US1.

上記実施形態において、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれは、第二流路Rbを挟んで第一方向に並ぶ第一流路Raと対応するように配置されたが、これに限定されない。すなわち、単一の流路形成部材4と、単一の第一流路Raとが一対一の関係にあったが、これに限定されない。例えば、複数の流路形成部材4…のそれぞれ、或いは、複数の流路形成部材4…の少なくとも何れか一つが、二つ以上の第一流路Raと対応するように形成されてもよい。すなわち、流路形成部材4は、少なくとも二つの第一流路Raに跨るように配置されてもよい。但し、複数の流路形成部材4…の貫通孔は、上記実施形態と同様に、第一流体Aを第一方向に分配する第一流体供給路Ra1を形成可能に配置されることは勿論である。   In the above embodiment, each of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 is arranged to correspond to the first flow path Ra aligned in the first direction across the second flow path Rb, but is not limited thereto. That is, although the single flow passage forming member 4 and the single first flow passage Ra were in a one-to-one relationship, it is not limited thereto. For example, each of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 or at least one of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 may be formed to correspond to two or more first flow paths Ra. That is, the flow path forming member 4 may be arranged to straddle at least two first flow paths Ra. However, it goes without saying that the through holes of the plurality of flow path forming members 4 are arranged to be able to form the first fluid supply path Ra1 for distributing the first fluid A in the first direction, as in the above embodiment. is there.
