At the lower end N, on the opposite side from the tube 501, the three channels are connected to an outlet S2 of the exchanger 3100. The detail of the route of the fluid in the three channels of the circuit C'2 is indicated in Figure 22.
  • the route of the refrigerant fluid in the circuits C2 and C'2, in reference to Figure 15, is the following for the operation by condensation in the opposite direction from the operation by evaporation: the fluid enters the channels of the circuit C'2 through an inlet S2 located at the lower end N of the exchanger 3100. The fluid rises in these channels, enters the tube 500 through the slot 501 and joins the conduit C3, passing through an outlet E'2 of the circuit C'2. The fluid circulates in the conduit C3 and enters the circuit C2 through an inlet S'2. At the lower end N, the circuit C2 is connected to an outlet E2 of the exchanger 3100. [0076] As for the thermal exchanges, the dual-pass exchanger 3100 achieves an optimal yield when there are two to four times more channels in the outlet pass of the circuit C'2 than in the inlet pass of the circuit C2.
  • Figure 16 shows the exchanger 3100 with the inlet E2 and the outlet S2 of the circuit C2 at the top for operation by evaporation.
  • Figure 17 shows the exchanger 3100 with the inlet S2 and the outlet E2 of the circuit C2 at the top for operation by condensation. There are two to four times more channels in the outlet pass of the circuit C'2 than in the inlet pass of the circuit C2.
  • Figures 18 and 19 show the exchanger 4100 respectively for the operations by evaporation and by condensation with the inlet and outlet of the circuits C2 and C'2 at the bottom.
  • Figures 20 and 21 show the exchanger 4100 respectively for the operations by evaporation and by condensation with the inlet and the outlet of the circuits C2 and C'2 at the top.
  • the exchanger differs from the exchanger 3100 in that it does not incorporate duct C3.
  • the operation of the exchanger 4100 is similar to that of the exchanger 3100.
  • Figure 22 shows the route of the fluid in a channel of the zone Z2 of the exchanger of Figure 14 or of the exchanger of Figure 18, operating by evaporation, with the slot 501 of tube 500 oriented vertically downward.
  • Figure 23 shows the route of the fluid in a channel of the zone Z2 of the exchanger of Figure 16 or of the exchanger of Figure 20, operating by evaporation, with the slot 501 of the tube 500 oriented vertically downward.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un échangeur (1100), comprenant des plaques superposées (2A-2L) qui sont insérées entre deux plaques d'extrémité (11,12) et qui définissent des canaux pour la circulation de fluide d'échange de chaleur. Ces canaux délimitent un premier circuit (C1) pour la circulation d'un premier fluide d'échange de chaleur, comportant un seul passage, et un deuxième circuit (C2) pour la circulation d'un deuxième fluide d'échange de chaleur, comprenant deux passages opposés l'un par rapport à l'autre, de sorte que, pour chaque direction de circulation du deuxième fluide d'échange de chaleur dans le deuxième circuit, l'un des deux passages du deuxième circuit est co-courant par rapport au passage du premier circuit, tandis que l'autre des deux passages du deuxième circuit est contre-courant par rapport au passage du premier circuit.
