- the secondary fluid interface 15 of the secondary current collecting portion 14 of the flow tube 1b is connected by the secondary connecting pipe 8.
- the advantage of this embodiment is that the connection of the distributor to the first header is more convenient, the welding point can be reduced, and since the distributor is arranged longitudinally, the fluid emerging from the main outlet 21b is substantially liquid refrigerant, likewise, The refrigerant passing through the main connecting pipe 25 to the first header lb is also substantially a liquid refrigerant, and this embodiment can also achieve uniform distribution of the refrigerant and overcome the noise generated by the two-phase flow.
- FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of the microchannel heat exchanger according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention.
- the main difference between the embodiment and the fifth embodiment described above is that the structure of the first header is different, and the connection of the secondary outlet of the dispenser is different.
- no partition is disposed in the first header lc, and the main outlet 21b at the lower end of the distributor 2b is directly connected to the main fluid interface 16 of the first header lc through the main connecting tube 25, the first set
- the flow tube lc is basically a liquid refrigerant flowing from the lower end of the distributor 2b, and the secondary outlet 22b at the upper end of the distributor 2b is connected to the secondary fluid interface 41 of the second header 4a through the secondary connection pipe 18, and the secondary connection pipe 18 is connected.
- a one-way valve can also be provided to prevent backflow of fluid.
- the lower end of the distributor 2b is placed at a higher height than the first header lc.
- the main fluid interface 16 of the first header lc is disposed at one end of the first header lc instead of being uniformly disposed on the first header.
- connection between the distributor and the first header can also adopt other connection manners, as shown in FIG. 11, wherein FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of the connection structure of the microchannel heat exchanger according to the seventh embodiment of the present invention. .
- the main difference between this embodiment and the fifth embodiment shown in Fig. 9 is that the structure of the first header is different, and the connection structure of the main outlet of the distributor and the first header is different.
- the first header Id is provided with a connecting portion at one end thereof near the distributor 2d, and the connecting portion is not provided with a flat tube, but a main fluid interface 16d is provided, and the main fluid interface 16d has a certain relationship with the closest flat tube.
- the spacing between the primary fluid interface 16d and the closest flat tube is greater than twice the distance between two adjacent flat tubes.
- the distributor 2d is also provided with a main outlet 21d at the lower end, a secondary outlet 22d at the upper end, and a first interface 20d located substantially at the center of the distributor 2d.
- the first header Id is divided into two parts by a partition lid: a main current collecting portion 13d and a secondary current collecting portion 14d; the main outlet 21d of the distributor 2d is connected through the main connection
- the connecting pipe 25d is in communication with the main collecting portion 13d, the secondary connecting port 22d is connected to the auxiliary collecting portion 14d through the secondary connecting pipe 8d, and the auxiliary collecting portion 14d is connected to the second collecting pipe 4a through one to two sets of flat pipes;
- the main connecting pipe 25d is disposed substantially perpendicular to the first header Id, and the axis of the main connecting pipe 25d and the axis of the first header Id may also be 30. -150.
- the angles are intersected so that the refrigerant entering the first header Id is connected to the first header Id having a relatively large inner diameter by using a circular main connecting pipe 25d having a relatively small inner diameter, and the refrigerant flows.
- the change in pressure is not large, thus reducing the effect of eddy currents on several flat tubes that are close.
- FIG. 12 is an eighth embodiment of the present invention.
- the connecting pipe 18d is connected to the secondary interface 41 of the second header 4a; other connections and uses can be referred to other embodiments described above, and will not be described in detail herein.
- the source of noise is primarily the flow and injection sound of the refrigerant.
- the two-phase flow refrigerant passing through the throttle valve may have a jet sound through the lower header.
- the jet noise has the characteristics of high sound level, wide frequency band and long propagation. It is generated by high-speed air current impact and shearing of the surrounding static gas, causing severe gas disturbance.
- the bottom header is basically a liquid refrigerant, there is no injection and cavitation noise, and the noise problem caused by the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant distribution of the microchannel heat exchanger is solved.
- a distributor is matched with a group of heat exchanger cores, and when the heat exchanger structure is large, such as when the length of the header is long, a set of microchannels may also be used.
- the heat exchanger is used in combination of two or more sets of dispensers. Specifically, a plurality of sets of distributors are used, so that the refrigerant passing through the plurality of sets of distributors is connected to the first through the main outlet of the distributor through the distributor.
