Abstract
The invention provides a refrigerant distributor for a heat exchanger, which comprises a pipe. The pipe is provided with an inlet which is approximately arranged at one end of the pipe and is used for a refrigerant to flow in. The sectional area of a fluid channel in the pipe is gradually reduced from one end to the other end of the pipe. As the refrigerant distributor adopts the above structure, the distribution of the refrigerant is uniform.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of heat exchanger that is used for the refrigerant distributor of heat exchanger and has this refrigerant distributor.
Background technology
Parallel-flow evaporator 2 ' in because the cold-producing medium of import 7 is vapour-liquid two-phases,, can cause cold-producing medium in each stream 4 maldistribution if adopt inappropriate refrigerant distributor.
Distributor 1 ' be to adopt a pipe to insert header 3 inside, the outlet 8 of on the refrigerant inlet direction of pipe, opening identical big or small uniform distances.As illustrated in fig. 1 and 2.Near inlet 7 distributor 1 ' outlet 8 flow velocity height, sendout is many, and away from the distributor 1 of inlet 7 ' outlet 8 flow velocitys low, sendout is few.
The place of this scheme deficiency is: because cold-producing medium flow on flow direction reduces gradually, be identical cross-sectional area under identical caliber, according to formula: Q=VA
The Q-volume flow; The V-flow velocity; A-distributor cross-sectional area.
Therefore therefore, the flow velocity of cold-producing medium reduces gradually on the flow of refrigerant direction, the also minimizing gradually of flow of the outlet by identical size.Outlet sendout near import is big, and is little away from the sendout of the outlet of import.And after the flow velocity reduction, vapour-liquid is separated easily in the distributing pipe, causes easily and distributes inequality.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of heat exchanger that is used for the refrigerant distributor of heat exchanger and has this refrigerant distributor, this refrigerant distributor and heat exchanger can make the cold-producing medium distribution ratio of distributor more even.
According to an aspect of the present invention, the invention provides a kind of refrigerant distributor that is used for heat exchanger, this refrigerant distributor comprises: pipe, described pipe has the inlet that is used for the cold-producing medium inflow of an end that is positioned at described pipe substantially, and the cross-sectional area of the fluid passage in the wherein said pipe reduces gradually from the end to end of described pipe.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, described pipe is by pipe is divided into multistage, and makes from the cross section of every section pipe of end to end of described pipe more flat than the cross section of the preceding paragraph pipe by the described pipe of compacting.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, described pipe comprises the multistage pipe, and is littler than the cross-sectional area of the preceding paragraph pipe from the cross-sectional area of every section pipe of end to end of described pipe.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, described pipe comprises the pipe that a plurality of length are different, first pipe is the shortest, and be used for from described first pipe that enters the mouth away from the end scope of described inlet in the assignment system cryogen, the length of remaining each pipe increase successively and remaining each pipe in each pipe be used for from a pipe away from the end of described inlet to this pipe away from the scope of the end of described inlet in the assignment system cryogen.According to another embodiment of the invention, described pipe comprises 3 pipes that length is different.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, described pipe is a conical pipe.
According to a further aspect in the invention, the invention provides a kind of heat exchanger, comprising: the end that is arranged on heat exchanger is used for the refrigerant distributor of assignment system cryogen, and wherein said refrigerant distributor is a kind of in the above-mentioned described refrigerant distributor.
Described heat exchanger can be a parallel-flow evaporator.
The present invention makes the cold-producing medium distribution ratio more even by adopting said structure.

The specific embodiment
The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and the specific embodiments.
Parallel-flow evaporator according to the present invention has the refrigerant distributor of the end that is arranged on parallel-flow evaporator, and this refrigerant distributor comprises pipe.
Refrigerant distributor according to an embodiment of the invention is described below.
Pass through said structure, on the flow of refrigerant direction, refrigerant flow reduces gradually, but cross-sectional area also reduces gradually, can get according to formula Q=VA, cold-producing medium in whole distributor flow velocity substantially evenly, the sendout of the outlet by same apertures substantially evenly, thereby can guarantee by the refrigerant amount of each outlet even.
Embodiment 2
This scheme advantage: on the flow of refrigerant direction, refrigerant flow reduces gradually, but cross-sectional area also reduces gradually, can get according to formula Q=VA, cold-producing medium flow velocity in whole distributor is more even, the sendout of the outlet by same apertures substantially evenly, thereby can guarantee by the refrigerant amount of each outlet even.
By adopting said structure because the flat tube number that every distributor tube is responsible for distributing reduces, so the also corresponding minimizing of dispense aperture, so the flow velocity of cold-producing medium in distributor gradually reduction reduce, the flow velocity of cold-producing medium in distributor is relatively even.
Although described the foregoing description, the present invention also can adopt other suitable manner to make the flow rate of fluid in the distributor tube relatively even.For example can adopt conical pipe.
Although described several embodiments of the present invention above, the invention is not restricted to the foregoing description.For example, in the foregoing description, distributing pipe 9 and header 3 made for pipe or by pipe, but they also can be the pipes in any suitable other cross section or be made by the pipe in any suitable other cross section, elliptical tube for example.
In addition, among the embodiment shown in the above-mentioned figure, be described and illustrate with the upright situation of placing of parallel-flow evaporator, this only is that the present invention obviously is not limited to the example shown in the figure for the convenience on describing and illustrating.In addition, saved the header that is positioned at the parallel-flow evaporator upside among the figure.Distributing pipe 9 also can be arranged in the header of upside.
In addition, although toply described the present invention at parallel-flow evaporator, the present invention can be applied to any suitable heat exchanger.
Moreover in the foregoing description, distributing pipe 9 only inserts from an end of header, still, for the distributing pipe 9 shown in Fig. 3-4, can adopt 9, two distributing pipes 9 of two distributing pipes to insert from the two ends of header respectively.For the distributor shown in Fig. 5, can adopt two distributors, two distributors insert from the two ends of header respectively.
