Hereinafter, an air conditioning system equipped with a vortex tube according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the air conditioning system according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a vortex tube 10 for receiving air over a predetermined pressure to generate cool air and warm air, And an indoor unit (30) for cooling or heating the indoor space by supplying one of cold air or warm air generated in the vortex tube (10) to the indoor space, The air conditioning of the indoor space can be used for the tube 10.

In addition, the air conditioning system includes a power generation unit 40 that generates electricity by receiving one of cold air and warm air generated in the vortex tube 10. In this embodiment, the power generation unit 40 is made of a Stirling engine.

The air conditioning system further includes a cooling three-way valve 50L for allowing cool air generated in the vortex tube 10 to be transmitted to either the indoor unit 30 or the power generation unit 40, And a heating side three-way valve (50H) that is transmitted to the other of the indoor unit (30) and the power generation unit (40).

Accordingly, when the cooling mode is performed, the cooling three-way valve 50L transfers the cool air generated in the vortex tube 10 to the indoor unit 30 to cool the indoor space, and the heating three-way valve 50H The heat generated in the vortex tube 10 is transmitted to the power generation unit 40 so that the power generation is performed by the warmth.

2, the cooling three-way valve 50L transmits cold air generated in the vortex tube 10 to the power generation unit 40 so as to generate power by cold air, The heating three-way valve 50H conveys the warmth generated in the vortex tube 10 to the indoor unit 30 so that the indoor space is heated.

3 and 4, the vortex tube 10 includes a vortex generating member 11 for generating vortex from the air delivered from the air blowing unit 20, A vortex guide pipe 12 for guiding a first vortex produced by the first vortex generated by the first vortex 12 and a second vortex flowing backward by the valve 13 to be described later and a part of the first vortex transmitted through the vortex guide pipe 12 to the outside A vortex generating chamber 12b provided in the vortex guiding tube 12 in combination with the vortex guiding tube 12, and a second vortex generating chamber 12b provided in the vortex guiding tube 12, And a cover member (14) covering and closing one side of the cover member (14).

8, the vortex generating member 11 integrally protrudes from one side of the base portion 11a so that the air transferred to the vortex generation chamber 12b is vortex flow A plurality of vortex guiding portions 11b for guiding the vortex generating member 11 to be engaged with the cover member 14 so as to project from the other side surface of the base portion 11a, 11c and the inside of the vortex generation chamber 12b so that the first vortex generated by the vortex induction portions 11b and the second vortex reversed by the valve 13 are introduced into the vortex generation chamber 12b And a division tube portion 11d for inhibiting mixing with each other. A through hole 11e is formed at the center of the vortex generating member 11 so that the second vortex reversely flowed by the valve 13 can pass through the vortex generating member 11. [ The through hole 11e is provided at the center of the base portion 11a, the fastening portion 11c, and the split tube portion 11d.

The base portion 11a is formed so that its outer diameter has a diameter corresponding to the inner diameter of the vortex generation chamber 12b to be described later and the outer peripheral surface of the base portion 11a contacts the inner peripheral surface of the vortex generation chamber 12b.

The vortex inducing portions 11b are spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction around the through hole 11e, and are formed to be inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the radial direction. Therefore, the air flowing into the vortex generation chamber 12b flows obliquely inward in the radial direction through the space between the vortex inducing portions 11b, so that a vortex is generated.

The divided tube portion 11d extends integrally from one side of the base portion 11a like the vortex inducing portions 11b. In this embodiment, the divided tube portion 11d is formed so as to be spaced apart from the vortex inducing portions 11b inside the vortex inducing portions 11b spaced from each other in the circumferential direction.

The first vortex generated by the vortex guiding portions 11b is guided to the vortex guiding tube portion 12c of the vortex guiding tube 12 to be described later by the outer peripheral surface of the divided tube portion 11d, The second vortex flows into the through hole 11e provided in the divided tube portion 11d.

The vortex guide tube portion 12c is connected to communicate with the center side of the vortex generation chamber 12b. The air inlet port 12d is tangentially connected to the vortex generation chamber 12b so that the air delivered from the ventilation unit 20 moves along the inner surface of the vortex generation chamber 12b. The vortex generating portion 12a and the vortex guide tube portion 12c are separately manufactured and combined and the air inlet port 12d is integrally formed with the vortex generating portion 12a.

The first vortex generated in the vortex generation chamber 12b and the second vortex that flows backward by the valve 13 are intersected with each other at the vortex guide tube portion 12c so that the first vortex absorbs heat from the second vortex. Thus, the temperature of the first vortex increases and the temperature of the second vortex decreases. Therefore, the second vortex returned to the vortex generation chamber 12b becomes low-temperature cold air. When the vortex generation chamber 12b is mixed with the first vortex having a relatively high temperature, the second vortex returned to the vortex generation chamber 12b through the cold- The temperature of the discharged cold air rises.

However, as described above, when the first vortex and the second vortex are prevented from being mixed with each other in the vortex generation chamber 12b through the divided tube portion 11d, the second vortex can be maintained in the through hole 11e And can be discharged to the cold discharge pipe 14c to be described later. That is, it is possible to obtain cold air at a lower temperature through the divided tube portion.

The valve 13 has a valve coupling portion 13a to be coupled to the vortex guide pipe portion 12c, a backflow guide portion 13b to guide the vortex to flow backward, and a valve coupling portion 13a to connect the backflow guide portion 13b And the connecting portion 13c is provided with a warmth outlet 13d for absorbing heat from the second vortex so that a part of the first vortex changed into warmth can be discharged to the outside.

In the present embodiment, the cover portion 14b is formed in a substantially octagonal plate shape so that the cover member 14 can be easily rotated through a tool such as a wrench and fastened to the vortex guide pipe 12. [

Accordingly, when cold air or heat generated in the vortex tube 10 is supplied to the power generation unit 40, the pistons rotate forward and backward in the cylinders 41A and 41B to rotate the crankshaft 42, The generated rotational force is transmitted to the generator 46 via the pulleys 43 and 44 and the belt 45 so that electricity is generated in the generator 46.

Electricity generated in the generator 46 of the power generation unit 40 is transmitted to the blowing unit 20 and used to drive the blowing unit 20. [ Thus, the power consumption used to operate the air conditioning system is reduced.

[ The blowing section 31 includes a discharge slit 31a provided on the inner circumferential side thereof in a toric shape so that air can be discharged from the blowing section 31 to the front side of the indoor unit 30. [
