Description

本発明は、熱交換器及びこの熱交換器を備えた空気調和機に関する。   The present invention relates to a heat exchanger and an air conditioner equipped with the heat exchanger.

従来より、空気が通過する隙間を置いて複数積層された矩形状フィンと、これら矩形状フィンと直交し、内部を作動流体が通過する伝熱管とを備えたフィンチューブ型熱交換器が知られている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a finned tube heat exchanger has been known that includes a plurality of rectangular fins stacked with a gap through which air passes and heat transfer tubes that are orthogonal to the rectangular fins and through which a working fluid passes. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).

特開平11−51412号公報(図1)Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-51412 (FIG. 1)

しかしながら、従来のフィンチューブ型熱交換器は、配管間の距離が遠く、一まとめにできないという難点があり、パス数が増大する傾向にあった。   However, the conventional fin tube type heat exchanger has a disadvantage that the distance between the pipes is long and cannot be integrated, and the number of passes tends to increase.

本発明の技術的課題は、伝熱管を集約し、パス数を低減できるようにすることにある。   A technical problem of the present invention is to collect heat transfer tubes and reduce the number of paths.

本発明に係る熱交換器は、下記の構成からなるものである。すなわち、空気が通過する隙間を置いて複数積層された矩形状フィンと、これら矩形状フィンと直交し、内部を作動流体が通過する伝熱管とを備え、矩形状フィンは、前記隙間の空気導入部となる側の積層面が空気流れ方向に直交する向きに配置され、伝熱管は、矩形状フィンの長手方向を段方向として複数段設けられるとともに、空気流れ方向を列方向として複数列設けられてなる熱交換器であって、各列及び各段毎に、列方向に複数の伝熱管を配し、かつこれら複数の伝熱管の、前記積層された矩形状フィンを貫通した両端部の少なくとも一方に、これら複数の伝熱管を束ねて段毎に合流又は分配する段専用集合管を設け、段専用集合管の合流管部を、その軸線が空気流れの上流寄りとなるように形成したものである。 The heat exchanger according to the present invention has the following configuration. That is, a plurality of stacked rectangular fins with gaps through which air passes, and heat transfer tubes that are orthogonal to the rectangular fins and through which the working fluid passes, and the rectangular fins introduce air into the gaps. The heat transfer tubes are provided in a plurality of rows with the longitudinal direction of the rectangular fins as the step direction, and in a plurality of rows with the air flow direction as the row direction. A plurality of heat transfer tubes arranged in the row direction for each row and each stage, and at least at both ends of the plurality of heat transfer tubes penetrating the stacked rectangular fins On the other hand, a stage-only collecting pipe that bundles or distributes these heat transfer pipes for each stage is provided , and the joining pipe portion of the stage-only collecting pipe is formed so that its axis is closer to the upstream side of the air flow. It is.

本発明に係る熱交換器においては、各列及び各段毎に、列方向に複数の伝熱管を配し、かつこれら複数の伝熱管の、前記積層された矩形状フィンを貫通した両端部の少なくとも一方に、これら複数の伝熱管を束ねて段毎に合流又は分配する段専用集合管を設けたので、各列及び各段毎に列方向に複数設けた伝熱管を、実質的に1本の配管として扱って冷媒パスを構成することが可能となり、パス数を低減させることができ、熱交換性能を向上させることができる。さらに、段専用集合管の合流管部を、その軸線が空気流れの上流寄りとなるように形成したので、この熱交換器を例えば空気調和機の凝縮器に適用した場合、液冷媒の慣性力を利用して、熱負荷の大きい空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管に冷媒を多く流すことができる。このため、2相冷媒を用いる場合、空気流れ方向上流側と下流側の伝熱管間の乾き度を一様にすることができ、熱交換性能が向上する。 In the heat exchanger according to the present invention, for each row and each stage, a plurality of heat transfer tubes are arranged in the row direction, and both ends of the plurality of heat transfer tubes passing through the stacked rectangular fins. Since at least one of the plurality of heat transfer tubes is bundled and a stage-dedicated collecting pipe that joins or distributes each stage is provided, there is substantially one heat transfer pipe provided in the row direction for each row and each row. It is possible to construct a refrigerant path by treating it as a pipe, reducing the number of passes and improving the heat exchange performance. Furthermore, since the junction pipe portion of the stage-only collecting pipe is formed so that the axis thereof is closer to the upstream side of the air flow, when this heat exchanger is applied to a condenser of an air conditioner, for example, the inertial force of the liquid refrigerant Can be used to flow a large amount of refrigerant through the heat transfer tube on the upstream side in the air flow direction with a large heat load. For this reason, when using a two-phase refrigerant | coolant, the dryness between the heat exchanger tubes of the air flow direction upstream and downstream can be made uniform, and heat exchange performance improves.

Embodiment 1. FIG.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a configuration of a heat exchanger according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention.
The heat exchanger according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention includes two rows of rectangular fins 1a and 1b stacked with a gap through which air passes as shown in FIG. 1, and each of these rectangular fins 1a and 1b. And two rows of heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b through which the working fluid passes. That is, the rectangular fins 1a and 1b are arranged in a direction in which the laminated surface on the side serving as the air introduction portion of the gap is orthogonal to the air flow direction. The heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are provided in a plurality of stages with the longitudinal direction of the rectangular fins 1a and 1b as the step direction, and are provided in a plurality of rows with the air flow direction as the column direction. The heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are provided for each row and each stage, and are arranged in parallel to the row direction (air flow direction). Furthermore, the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided for each row and each step are arranged in a staggered manner when viewed from the positional relationship with the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b on the adjacent row side. Is arranged. Here, the tube diameter of the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b is 5.0 mm, the fin width in the air flow direction of the rectangular fins 1a and 1b is 22 mm, and the pitch in the step direction of the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b in each row is 21 mm. is there. Further, the pitch in the air flow direction of the central axis of the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b in each row is 10 mm.

図1のように、各列及び各段毎に、複数の伝熱管2a,2bを設け、かつこれら伝熱管2a,2bは、空気流れ方向に平行に配置することで、空気側の通風抵抗を増やすことなく伝熱管の本数を増加させることができる。   As shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are provided for each row and each stage, and these heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are arranged in parallel to the air flow direction to reduce the air-side ventilation resistance. The number of heat transfer tubes can be increased without increasing the number.

さらに、各列及び各段毎に設けられている伝熱管2a,2bを、隣接する列間で見て千鳥状に配列することで、伝熱性能を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, the heat transfer performance can be improved by arranging the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided for each row and each stage in a staggered manner as seen between adjacent rows.

In FIG. 2, the heat transfer tubes 2 a and 2 b provided for each row and each step are arranged so as to be deviated in the step direction by the heat transfer tube projection surface (heat transfer tube outer diameter) with respect to the air flow direction. ing.

図2のように各列及び各段毎に設けられている伝熱管2a,2bを互いに段方向に偏倚して配置し、空気流れの下流側に配置されている伝熱管2bが、空気流れの上流側に配置されている伝熱管2aの後流の影響を受けないようにすることで、伝熱性能を向上させることができる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided for each row and each stage are arranged so as to be offset in the step direction, and the heat transfer tubes 2b arranged on the downstream side of the air flow The heat transfer performance can be improved by avoiding the influence of the wake of the heat transfer tube 2a arranged on the upstream side.

FIG. 4 is a front view showing the relationship between the connection pipe, the stage-only collecting pipe (three-way pipe), the heat transfer pipe, and the rectangular fins of the heat exchanger according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention and the air flow direction. FIG. 5 is a side view showing the relationship between the stage-only collecting pipe (three-way pipe) and the U-bend of the heat exchanger according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a side view showing the heat exchanger according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention from the hairpin side of the heat transfer tube.

図3乃至図6のように各列及び各段毎に設けられている伝熱管2a,2bの、積層された矩形状フィン1aや1bを貫通した両端部の一方に、これら複数の伝熱管2a,2bを束ねて段毎に合流又は分配する段専用集合管すなわち三方管3が設けられている。三方管3の入口又は出口となる合流管部3aは、その直径が7mmであり、その軸線が空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管2a寄りに配置されている。ここでは、図3のように三方管3の合流管部3aの軸線と空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管2aの軸線とがほぼ一致するように構成されている。このように三方管3の合流管部3aを空気流れ方向上流側に配置することにより、本実施形態の熱交換器を空気調和機の凝縮器に適用した場合、液冷媒の慣性力を利用して、熱負荷の大きい空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管2aに冷媒を多く流すことができる。このため、2相冷媒を用いる場合、空気流れ方向上流側と下流側の伝熱管2a,2b間の乾き度を一様にすることができ、熱交換性能が向上する。   As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 6, the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided in each row and each stage have a plurality of heat transfer tubes 2a on one of both end portions penetrating the stacked rectangular fins 1a and 1b. , 2b are bundled, or a stage-dedicated collecting pipe, that is, a three-way pipe 3 is provided to join or distribute each stage. The confluence tube portion 3a serving as the inlet or the outlet of the three-way tube 3 has a diameter of 7 mm, and its axis is disposed closer to the heat transfer tube 2a on the upstream side in the air flow direction. Here, as shown in FIG. 3, the axis of the merging pipe portion 3 a of the three-way pipe 3 is configured to substantially coincide with the axis of the heat transfer pipe 2 a on the upstream side in the air flow direction. As described above, by arranging the merge pipe portion 3a of the three-way pipe 3 on the upstream side in the air flow direction, when the heat exchanger of the present embodiment is applied to the condenser of the air conditioner, the inertial force of the liquid refrigerant is used. Thus, a large amount of refrigerant can flow through the heat transfer pipe 2a on the upstream side in the air flow direction with a large heat load. For this reason, when using a two-phase refrigerant | coolant, the dryness between the heat exchanger tubes 2a and 2b of the air flow direction upstream and downstream can be made uniform, and heat exchange performance improves.

したがって、冷媒は、凝縮器の場合、図5及び図6のように空気流れ方向下流側の矩形状フィン1bの列の入口から流入し、三方管3により矩形状フィン1bの最上段に位置する伝熱管2a,2bに分配される。次いで、矩形状フィン1bで熱交換され、伝熱管2a,2bのそれぞれのヘアピン部を通過し、再び矩形状フィン1bで熱交換された後、二段目の三方管3により伝熱管2a,2bは合流される。次いで、段間Uベンド5で下段(三段目)に流入し、下段(三段目)の三方管3に流入後、伝熱管2a,2bに分配される。これを、空気流れ方向下流側の矩形状フィン1bで繰り返した後、列間Uベンド6で上流側に流入し、空気流れ方向上流側の矩形状フィン1aの最下段の三方管3に流入する。   Therefore, in the case of the condenser, the refrigerant flows in from the inlet of the row of the rectangular fins 1b on the downstream side in the air flow direction as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and is positioned at the uppermost stage of the rectangular fins 1b by the three-way pipe 3. The heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are distributed. Next, heat is exchanged by the rectangular fins 1b, passes through the respective hairpin portions of the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b, and is again heat exchanged by the rectangular fins 1b, and then the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b by the second three-way tube 3 Are merged. Next, the air flows into the lower stage (third stage) through the interstage U-bend 5, flows into the lower (third stage) three-way pipe 3, and is then distributed to the heat transfer pipes 2a and 2b. After this is repeated at the rectangular fin 1b on the downstream side in the air flow direction, it flows into the upstream side by the inter-row U-bend 6 and flows into the lowest three-way pipe 3 of the rectangular fin 1a at the upstream side in the air flow direction. .

次に、矩形状フィン1aの最下段の三方管3により伝熱管2a,2bに分配され、矩形状フィン1aで熱交換され、ヘアピンを通過し、再び矩形状フィン1aで熱交換される。その後、下から二段目の三方管3により伝熱管2a,2bは合流される。次いで、段間Uベンド5で上段(下から三段目)に流入し、下から三段目の三方管3に流入後、伝熱管2a,2bに分配される。これを、空気流れ方向上流側の矩形状フィン1aで繰り返した後、最上段の三方管3の合流管部3a、つまり冷媒出口より接続配管4(図4)へ流出する。   Next, the heat is transferred to the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b by the lowermost three-way tube 3 of the rectangular fin 1a, exchanges heat with the rectangular fin 1a, passes through the hairpin, and again exchanges heat with the rectangular fin 1a. Thereafter, the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are joined by the three-way tube 3 in the second stage from the bottom. Next, the air flows into the upper stage (third stage from the bottom) at the interstage U-bend 5, and after flowing into the three-way pipe 3 at the third stage from the bottom, it is distributed to the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b. This is repeated at the rectangular fin 1a on the upstream side in the air flow direction, and then flows out from the junction pipe portion 3a of the uppermost three-way pipe 3, that is, from the refrigerant outlet to the connection pipe 4 (FIG. 4).

このように、各列及び各段毎に設けられている複数の伝熱管2a,2bを束ねて段毎に合流又は分配する三方管3により、各列及び各段毎に設けられている複数の伝熱管2a,2bを実質的に1本の配管として扱い、冷媒パスを構成しているので、冷媒パス数を半減できる。   In this way, the plurality of heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided for each row and each stage are bundled and the three-way pipe 3 that joins or distributes for each step provides a plurality of each of the rows and each stage. Since the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are substantially handled as one pipe and constitute a refrigerant path, the number of refrigerant paths can be halved.

図7は本発明の実施形態1に係る熱交換器の三方管の変形例を示す正面図である。この三方管3Aは、伝熱管2a,2bとの接続部が、合流管部3aの軸線を挟むように設けられている。このような三方管3Aの場合、空気流れ方向上流側に配置される伝熱管2aと空気流れ方向下流側に配置される伝熱管2bをストレート状に接続した場合、これら伝熱管2a,2bには液冷媒が均等に流れる。このため、熱負荷の大きい空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管2aに冷媒を多く流すことはできない。   FIG. 7 is a front view showing a modification of the three-way pipe of the heat exchanger according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The three-way pipe 3A is provided so that the connection part with the heat transfer pipes 2a and 2b sandwiches the axis of the joining pipe part 3a. In the case of such a three-way pipe 3A, when the heat transfer tube 2a disposed on the upstream side in the air flow direction and the heat transfer tube 2b disposed on the downstream side in the air flow direction are connected in a straight shape, the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b include Liquid refrigerant flows evenly. For this reason, a large amount of refrigerant cannot flow through the heat transfer pipe 2a on the upstream side in the air flow direction with a large heat load.

したがって、このような三方管3Aを用いる場合は、空気流れ方向下流側に配置される伝熱管2bを、図7のように三方管3Aの接続部まで空気流れ方向上流側に折り曲げて、三方管3Aに接続する形態を採る。これにより、空気流れ方向下流側に配置される伝熱管2bに圧損を付けることができて、空気流れ方向上流側の伝熱管2aにより多くの液冷媒を流すことができる。このため、2相冷媒を用いる場合、空気流れ方向上流側と下流側の伝熱管2a,2b間の乾き度を一様にすることができ、熱交換性能が向上する。   Therefore, when such a three-way pipe 3A is used, the heat transfer pipe 2b arranged on the downstream side in the air flow direction is bent to the upstream side in the air flow direction to the connection portion of the three-way pipe 3A as shown in FIG. The form which connects to 3A is taken. As a result, pressure loss can be applied to the heat transfer tube 2b arranged on the downstream side in the air flow direction, and a larger amount of liquid refrigerant can flow through the heat transfer tube 2a on the upstream side in the air flow direction. For this reason, when using a two-phase refrigerant | coolant, the dryness between the heat exchanger tubes 2a and 2b of the air flow direction upstream and downstream can be made uniform, and heat exchange performance improves.

なお、ここでは各列及び各段毎に設けられている複数の伝熱管2a,2bの、積層された矩形状フィン1a,1bを貫通した両端部の内の一方に、これら複数の伝熱管2a,2bを束ねて段毎に合流又は分配する段専用集合管すなわち三方管3又は3Aを設け、伝熱管2a,2bの両端部の内の他方は、これら伝熱管2a,2bを折り返すヘアピンとして構成したものを例に挙げて説明したが、これに限るものではない。すなわち、三方管3又は3Aは、伝熱管2a,2bの、積層された矩形状フィン1a,1bを貫通した両端部の両方に設けてもよいものである。この場合は、各伝熱管2a,2bが合流するまでの長さを短くすることができるため、熱負荷の影響を受けなくなり、乾き度分布を少なくでき、熱交換性能が向上する。   Here, a plurality of heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b provided in each row and each stage are provided on one of both end portions penetrating the stacked rectangular fins 1a and 1b. , 2b are bundled to each stage to join or distribute, that is, a three-way pipe 3 or 3A is provided, and the other of both ends of the heat transfer tubes 2a, 2b is configured as a hairpin that turns back the heat transfer tubes 2a, 2b. However, the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the three-way tube 3 or 3A may be provided at both ends of the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b penetrating the stacked rectangular fins 1a and 1b. In this case, since the length until the heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b join can be shortened, the heat load is not affected, the dryness distribution can be reduced, and the heat exchange performance is improved.

また、ここでは、各列及び各段毎に、列方向に2つの伝熱管2a,2bを配し、段専用集合管すなわち三方管3又は3Aにてこれら2つの伝熱管2a,2bを束ねて段毎に合流又は分配するようにしたものを例に挙げて説明したが、これに限るものではない。例えば、各列及び各段毎に、列方向に3つ以上の伝熱管を配し、段専用集合管にてこれら3つ以上の伝熱管を束ねて段毎に合流又は分配するようにしてもよいものである。   Further, here, for each row and each stage, two heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are arranged in the row direction, and these two heat transfer tubes 2a and 2b are bundled by a stage-dedicated collecting pipe, that is, the three-way pipe 3 or 3A. Although an example has been described in which each stage is joined or distributed, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, for each row and each stage, three or more heat transfer tubes are arranged in the row direction, and these three or more heat transfer tubes are bundled in a stage-dedicated collecting pipe to be merged or distributed for each stage. It ’s good.
