本発明は空気調和機や冷凍機等に用いる熱交換器に関す
るものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a heat exchanger used in air conditioners, refrigerators, etc.
従来例の構成とその問題点
冷媒等の作動流体が伝熱管内を相変化しながら流動する
熱交換器としては、従来、第1図に示すようなフィン付

うに、溝深さhが一定であるらせん浦4を管内壁に設け
た管内らせん溝付管が用いられている。BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, a finned heat exchanger as shown in FIG. 1 has been used as a heat exchanger in which a working fluid such as a refrigerant flows through heat transfer tubes while undergoing a phase change. This consists of a large number of fins 1 arranged in parallel at regular intervals and a plurality of heat transfer tubes 2 arranged through the fins 1, and heat exchange between the refrigerant inside the heat transfer tubes 2 and the air outside the tubes. will be held. Arrow 3 in the figure indicates the flow direction of the refrigerant. As the heat exchanger tube 2, as shown in FIG. 2, an internal spiral grooved tube is used in which a spiral groove 4 having a constant groove depth h is provided on the inner wall of the tube.
この管内らせん溝付管は溝4を設けることによって1M
発熱伝達の場合は管底部の液冷媒が毛細管現象によって
溝内を上昇し、管内伝熱面に形成される冷媒液膜の平均
厚さが薄くなり、凝縮熱伝達の場合は凝縮液が表面張力
の作用で溝底部に集まり、管内伝熱面に生成される凝縮
液膜の平均厚さが薄くなり、共に伝熱性能が向上すると
言われていた。By providing the groove 4, this internal spiral grooved tube can be made with 1M
In the case of heat transfer, the liquid refrigerant at the bottom of the tube rises in the groove due to capillary action, and the average thickness of the refrigerant liquid film formed on the heat transfer surface in the tube becomes thinner, and in the case of condensation heat transfer, the condensed liquid rises due to the surface tension. It was said that the average thickness of the condensate film that collects at the bottom of the groove and is generated on the heat transfer surface inside the tube becomes thinner due to this action, and that this improves heat transfer performance.
しかし、我々の経験によれば、例えば蒸発熱伝達の場合
に管内全伝熱面に薄い厚さの冷媒液膜が形成され、著し
い伝熱促進効果が得られるのは冷媒の乾き度が大きい、
すなわち蒸発過程の後期だけである。一方、蒸発過程の
初期においては、冷媒の乾き度は小さく、管内の液冷媒
の流量が多い。However, according to our experience, for example, in the case of evaporative heat transfer, a thin refrigerant liquid film is formed on the entire heat transfer surface in the tube, and a significant heat transfer promotion effect can be obtained if the refrigerant is highly dry.
That is, only in the latter stages of the evaporation process. On the other hand, at the beginning of the evaporation process, the dryness of the refrigerant is low and the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant in the pipes is large.
そのため、液冷媒は容易に溝を埋めてしまい、溝を乗り
越えて流動する。したがって、前述のような蒸発メカニ
ズムによる著しい伝熱促進効果は望めない。以上のこと
から、蒸発器の伝熱性能を飛躍的に向上させるためには
、冷媒の乾き度が大きい領域における著しい伝熱促進効
果をより一層有効利用しなければならないという問題が
ある。Therefore, the liquid refrigerant easily fills the groove and flows over the groove. Therefore, a significant heat transfer promoting effect due to the evaporation mechanism as described above cannot be expected. From the above, in order to dramatically improve the heat transfer performance of the evaporator, there is a problem that the remarkable heat transfer promoting effect in the region where the degree of dryness of the refrigerant is large must be utilized more effectively.
一方、管内の作動流体が単相流の場合管内らせん溝付管
の伝熱性能は、前述の管内の作動流体が二相流の場合の
伝熱性能よりはるかに小さく、管内壁が平滑な平滑管の
単相流伝熱性能にほとんど等しい。すなわち、管内の作
動流体が単相流の場合には溝の効果は僅かである。以上
のことから、単相流域に管内らせん溝付管を用いること
はあまり効果的ではない。On the other hand, when the working fluid inside the pipe is a single-phase flow, the heat transfer performance of the spiral grooved pipe inside the pipe is much lower than the heat transfer performance when the working fluid inside the pipe is two-phase flow. Almost equal to the single-phase flow heat transfer performance of pipes. That is, when the working fluid in the pipe is a single-phase flow, the effect of the grooves is small. From the above, it is not very effective to use a pipe with internal spiral grooves in a single-phase flow area.

たものである。Structure of the Invention The heat exchanger of the present invention includes a heat exchanger tube in which the inside of the heat exchanger tube is a flow path for a phase-changing fluid, and at least two types of helical grooves having different groove depths are provided on the inner wall of the heat exchanger tube. The groove depth is small in the low dryness region of the fluid in the pipe and increased in the high dryness region.

and a plurality of heat transfer tubes 6 arranged through the fins 6,
7, 8.9 and a U-shaped pend 10 that connects each of the heat exchanger tubes 6 to 9 to each other, an evaporator is constructed. Refrigerant flows inside the tube in the direction of arrow 11, and air flows between the fins 6 outside the tube to perform heat exchange. The heat transfer tubes 6 and 9 through which single-phase liquid refrigerant and refrigerant vapor flow are smooth tubes with smooth inner wall surfaces. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, spirals 412° 13 having a triangular cross section are provided on the inner walls of the heat exchanger tubes 7 and 8 where evaporative heat transfer takes place. Groove depth h of the spiral groove 12
l is small (for example, hl = 0.15 mm), and the groove depth R2 of the helical groove 13 of the heat exchanger tube 8 in the region of high dryness is
is much larger than m depth hl (e.g. h, 2-0

価な蒸発器とすることができる。Since the heat transfer tubes 6 and 9 through which single-phase liquid refrigerant and refrigerant vapor flow are smooth tubes with smooth inner wall surfaces, the heat transfer performance of the smooth tubes 6 and 9 and the spiral grooved tube in the tube in the above-mentioned single-phase region is as follows. Because they are almost equal, the processing cost of the heat exchanger tubes is low, without reducing the heat transfer performance of the heat exchanger tubes, that is, an inexpensive evaporator can be obtained.

熱管の蒸発伝熱性能に関する実験結果を第6図に示す。Next, FIG. 6 shows experimental results regarding the evaporative heat transfer performance of various heat transfer tubes under the following experimental conditions when the flow state of the refrigerant is a two-phase flow state in which liquid refrigerant and refrigerant vapor flow simultaneously.

冷媒の乾き度が大きくなるにつれて、平滑管と管内らせ
ん溝付管の熱伝達率の差が大きくなる。つまり、乾き度
が大きいほど管内らせん溝による伝熱促進効果が非常に
著しくなる。As the dryness of the refrigerant increases, the difference in heat transfer coefficient between the smooth tube and the spirally grooved tube increases. In other words, the greater the degree of dryness, the more significant the effect of promoting heat transfer by the internal spiral grooves becomes.
また、冷媒の乾き度が小さな領域では管内らせん溝付管

較して小さな値である。In addition, in areas where the degree of dryness of the refrigerant is small, the depth of the spirally grooved pipe inside the tube has almost no effect, but as the degree of dryness becomes extremely dry and the amount of refrigerant vapor increases, the heat transfer performance becomes more significant as the depth of the groove increases. To increase. On the other hand, the pressure loss due to the refrigerant increases as the groove depth increases. However, the rate of increase in pressure loss due to the increase in groove depth in a region where the dryness of the refrigerant is large is a small value compared to the rate of increase in the heat transfer coefficient described above.
上記の実験結果に基いて、本実施例では冷媒の乾き度が

低下させることなく冷媒による圧力損失を減少させるこ
とができる。Based on the above experimental results, in this example, the heat exchanger tube 7 in the region where the dryness of the refrigerant is small has a spiral groove 12 with a small groove depth.
has been established. When the degree of dryness of the refrigerant is low and the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant in the pipe is large, the liquid refrigerant does not flow along the grooves, but flows over the grooves. Therefore, by using a spiral grooved tube with a small groove depth, pressure loss due to the refrigerant can be reduced without deteriorating heat transfer performance.
また、本実施例では冷媒の乾き度が大きな領域の伝熱管

性能を大幅に向上させることができる。Further, in this embodiment, the helical grooves 13 having a large groove depth are provided in the heat exchanger tubes 8 in regions where the degree of dryness of the refrigerant is large. As the dryness of the refrigerant increases and the flow rate of the liquid refrigerant in the tube decreases, the flow state of the refrigerant in the tube tends to transition to an annular flow or an annular spray flow due to the capillary phenomenon caused by the spiral groove, and the flow state of the refrigerant in the tube tends to change to an annular flow or an annular spray flow, and the flow state of the refrigerant in the tube tends to change to an annular flow or an annular spray flow, and the flow state of the refrigerant in the tube tends to change to an annular flow or an annular spray flow. A very thin refrigerant liquid film is formed, which significantly improves heat transfer performance. Therefore, the larger the groove depth in the spirally grooved tube, the thinner the refrigerant liquid film is formed on the wider inner surface of the groove, and the heat transfer performance can be significantly improved.

とへ明らかである。In addition, although the internal spiral grooved tube 7.8 of the above embodiment was provided with a groove having a triangular cross section as a spiral groove, the same effect can be obtained by providing a groove having a polygonal cross section other than a triangle. Needless to say, the effect can be obtained. In addition, although there are two types of groove depths of the spiral groove, Ih and h2, it is obvious that more depths may be used.

できる。Further, the present invention exhibits the same effect in condensation heat transfer as in evaporative heat transfer. In other words, by providing spiral grooves with a large groove depth in heat transfer tubes in areas where the dryness of the refrigerant is large, the average thickness of the condensate film that is generated on the inner surface of all grooves in the tube is extremely thin, improving heat transfer performance. can be significantly improved.

It is possible to form a film and to significantly improve the heat transfer performance of a heat exchanger, which has great industrial effects.
