Abstract

PURPOSE:To restrain the generation of temperature boundary layer by a method wherein the length of plate fins in the direction of airflow is determined in accordance with an interval between a pair of straight pipes in parallel substantially while the plate fins are provided independently at every two stages of plate fins, to which the straight tubes are fitted. CONSTITUTION:The length of plate fins 3 in the direction of airflow or the height of the plate fins 3 are determined in accordance with an interval between a pair of straight pipes 5 in parallel to each other substantially while the fins are divided independently by every two stages of the fins, to which straight lines 5 are fitted. On the other hand, the plate fins 3 are provided with two rows of long holes 4 so as to penetrate the straight pipes 5 by two stages in up-and-down and two pieces in the direction of fore-andaft. Accordingly, the height of the plate fins 3 becomes slightly larger than the width of upper and lower one pair of straight pipes 5 whereby the length of the plate fin 3 in the direction of airflow can be shortened. According to this method, the generation of a temperature boundary layer P can be restrained.

<Prior Art> Various heat exchangers have been proposed in the past. For example, in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 59-23961, straight pipe sections that are parallel to each other and a tU-shaped connecting pipe section that connects these straight pipe sections are used. The connecting pipe part of the refrigerant pipe is flat, and the many fins arranged in parallel have a width smaller than the outer diameter of the straight pipe part and larger than the thickness of the connecting pipe part, and have a width at both ends. A long hole for inserting a refrigerant pipe is provided with a refrigerant pipe fitting part having an inner diameter equal to the outer diameter of the straight pipe part, and the connecting pipe part of the refrigerant pipe is inserted into these long holes, and the connecting pipe part of the refrigerant pipe is inserted straight into the long hole. A heat exchanger has been proposed in which tube portions are fitted into fitting portions at both ends of each elongated hole.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> Incidentally, in a heat exchanger, generally, sufficient heat conduction is performed on the upstream side with respect to the external heat medium, such as air flow, and the heat exchange rate is high, but on the downstream side, the heat exchange rate is high. Thermal conductivity may decrease and sufficient heat exchange may not take place. This is because a temperature boundary layer is generated around the fin, and the thickness of this temperature boundary layer is minimal at the tip of the fin, that is, at the upstream end of the airflow, but the thickness of the temperature boundary layer increases toward the downstream side. This is because the distance between adjacent fins, in other words, the entire path of the external heat medium becomes a boundary M, and heat conduction is hindered.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention has been proposed in view of the above, and is a method for inserting a refrigerant pipe in which a meandering refrigerant pipe having a straight pipe portion and a bent connecting pipe portion is provided on a plate fin. In a heat exchanger that is configured by being inserted into a long hole, the plate fin is inserted into the straight pipe part so that the length of the plate fin in the airflow direction corresponds to the interval between the pair of substantially parallel straight pipe parts. The feature is that each two stages are made independent.

FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a heat exchanger 1 according to the present invention, in which a refrigerant pipe 2 is bent in a meandering manner, and the bent refrigerant pipe 2 is mounted on a plate fin 3. It is of the so-called serpen type which is inserted into the elongated hole 4.

The two refrigerant pipes have straight pipe portions 5 that are parallel to each other and a U-shaped connecting pipe portion 6 that connects these straight pipe portions 5. In other words, the straight pipe material is bent into a U-shape. In the illustrated embodiment, the straight pipe portion 5 is 6 in the front view.
It is formed into tiers. Incidentally, the connecting pipe portion 6 is formed to be slightly flat.

On the other hand, the length of the plate fin 3 in the airflow direction, that is, in this embodiment, since the airflow rises from below, the height h is set as the length corresponding to the distance between the pair of parallel straight pipe portions 5. The straight pipe portions 5 are inserted into each two stages independently. Further, as described above, the plate fin 3 is provided with two rows of elongated holes 4 so that the straight pipe portions 5 are inserted in two stages, upper and lower, and two at the front and rear. Each elongated hole 4 has a width smaller than the outer diameter of the straight pipe part 5 (and larger than the thickness of the connecting pipe part 6), and has an inner diameter at the upper and lower ends equal to the outer diameter of the straight pipe part 5. Refrigerant pipe fitting parts 7 are provided.The connecting pipe parts 6 of the refrigerant pipes 2 are inserted into these long holes 4, and the straight pipe parts 5 are fitted into the fitting parts 7 at both ends of each long hole 4. It will be stopped.

Therefore, the height of the plate fin 3 is determined by the pair of upper and lower straight pipe parts 5.
The width of the plate fins 3 in the airflow direction can be made extremely short (and the generation of the temperature boundary layer P can be suppressed. In other words, unlike conventional heat exchangers, each direct When a tube is inserted into a series of fins, a large temperature boundary layer P° as shown by the chain line in FIG. 3 is generated, resulting in adverse effects such as a decrease in thermal conductivity, but according to the present invention, Since the temperature boundary layer P is divided as shown by the broken line and only a small temperature boundary layer P is generated, there is no adverse effect due to the temperature boundary layer.

Further, in FIG. 4(B), the positions of the upper and lower refrigerant pipe fitting portions 7 are slightly shifted so that the elongated holes 4 are formed at an angle.

By doing this, each straight pipe part 5 will not be in the shadow of another straight pipe part 5, so that the airflow will be sufficiently distributed and the plate fins 3
The temperature distribution above is made uniform, and a temperature boundary layer P is generated. Furthermore, the height of the plate fins 3 can be further reduced, and the temperature boundary layer P can be easily suppressed.

Furthermore, in the conventional heat exchanger 1, the size of the heat exchanger 1 is determined by the heat exchange capacity, and the size of the plate fins 3 is also determined accordingly, making it impossible to standardize the components. Accordingly, it becomes possible to increase or decrease the number of stages of the plate fins 3 by forming the straight pipe portion 5 into a two-stage set.

Therefore, the plate fins 3 can be standardized, which is effective in reducing costs.

Furthermore, in the embodiment shown in FIG.
The pitch of the plate fins 3 is changed for each stage. That is,
In the upper stage, the plate fins 3 are arranged closely, in the middle stage, the plate fins 3 are arranged somewhat sparsely, and in the lower stage, the plate fins 3 are arranged closely.
are set roughly. By changing the pitch of the plate fins 3 in this way, the desired heat exchange rate can be achieved by taking into account the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet sides of the refrigerant, and the temperature difference between the upstream and downstream sides of the airflow. This has extremely high practical value, as it can make the amount of heat exchange uniform between the upper and lower parts of the heat exchanger 1. Furthermore, clogging due to frost formation can be prevented.

Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. If the plate fins 3 are attached to the refrigerant pipes in an inclined or staggered manner, the width becomes extremely narrow because the temperature boundary layer is generated only the length of each refrigerant pipe. Although the case where there are two rows is shown, the same implementation as in the above-described embodiment can be performed even if there are one row or three or more rows.
