In the previous embodiment, the sectional area of the first cavity 11, the second cavity 12, the 3rd cavity 13 and the 4th cavity 14 can equate also can be unequal.
The present invention also proposes a kind of parallel-flow heat exchanger, and this parallel-flow heat exchanger comprises aforementioned header 1.With reference to shown in Figure 8, it specifically comprises header 1 and the some flat tubes 2 that are plugged on the described header 1, and is arranged on the fin 3 between described some flat tubes 2.All there are end cap 4 shutoff at header 1 two ends.Refrigerant input pipe 5 is communicated with the 3rd cavity 13 of header 1, and refrigerant efferent duct 6 is communicated with the 4th cavity 14 of header 1.
Known such as those skilled in the art institute, have passage in the flat tube 2, can flow to upper header 7 for refrigerant.In the embodiment of the invention, flat tube 2 one ends do not have the part of passage to be provided with a breach 203, this breach 203 is divided into two parts with flat tube 2, the first flat tube and the second flat tube, with respectively with header 1 in the first flat hole 112 be connected flat hole 121 and be connected, concrete, be that the first flat tube is inserted in the first flat hole 112, the second flat tube is inserted in the second flat hole 121.After the first flat tube and the second flat tube are inserted into respectively in the first flat hole 112 and the second flat hole 121, can pass through the 3rd cavity 13 and the first cavity 11 from the refrigerant of refrigerant input pipe 5 inputs, arrive upper header 7 via the passage in the flat tube 2 again, flow to the second cavity 12 and the 4th cavity 14 from upper header 7 via another passage the flat tube 2 again, at last output from efferent duct 6.
The structure of flat tube 2 can be with reference to shown in Figure 9 in the embodiment of the invention: flat tube 2 is provided with first passage 201 and second channel 202, and part is without passage between first passage 201 and the second channel 202.
In a preferred embodiment, the surface area of first passage 201 is less than the surface area of second channel 202.Owing to pass through first in the refrigerant flow process behind the first passage 201 of flat tube 2 through second channel 202, and little than second channel 202 of the channel cross-sectional area of first passage 201, so the refrigerant flowing space increases gradually, is conducive to the evaporation of refrigerant.When this parallel-flow heat exchanger was used as condenser, stream was then just opposite, and the refrigerant flowing space reduces gradually, is conducive to the condensation of refrigerant.
In another embodiment, the first flat tube 201 and 202 splits of the second flat tube are arranged side by side.Concrete, please refer to Figure 10 to shown in Figure 11, the first flat tube 2A and the second flat tube 2B are set in row.Wherein, the end of the second flat tube 2B inserts in the first flat hole 112 of header 1, and an other end inserts in the upper header 7.The end of the first flat tube 2A inserts in the second flat hole 121 of header 1, and an other end inserts in the upper header 7.Preferably, the actual internal area of the second flat tube 2B is less than the first flat tube 2A's, when this parallel-flow heat exchanger is made evaporimeter, refrigerant first through behind the second flat tube 2B through the first flat tube 2A, the refrigerant flowing space increases gradually, is conducive to the evaporation of refrigerant.When this parallel-flow heat exchanger was made condenser, stream was opposite, and the refrigerant flowing space reduces gradually, was conducive to the condensation of refrigerant.
In the embodiment of the invention, 121 one-tenth staggered being arranged in parallel in the first flat hole 112 on the header 1 and the second flat hole, corresponding the second flat tube 2B also becomes to be staggered with the first flat tube 2A.Preferably, a pitch of fins that is arranged on the fin 31 between the first flat tube 2A is larger than a pitch of fins that is arranged on the fin 32 between the second flat tube 2B, because the easiest frosting of fin near refrigerant input pipe 5 places, a pitch of fins that increases fin 31 herein is conducive to discharge condensed water, thereby delay frosting, the refrigeration that minimizing causes because of frosting improves the exchange capability of heat of parallel-flow heat exchanger then.
Above-mentioned parallel-flow heat exchanger both can be used for evaporimeter also can be used for condenser.In the time of as evaporimeter, refrigerant enters from refrigerant input pipe 5, flow to the 3rd cavity 13 of header 1, from the first through hole 113, enter subsequently the first cavity 11, because the first cavity 11 is communicated with the first passage 201 of flat tube 2, refrigerant out enters the cavity of header 1 afterwards from the first cavity 11, and then refrigerant enters the second cavity 12 of header 1 through the second channel 202 of flat tube 2, then refrigerant enters the 4th cavity 14 through the second through hole 115, flows out from refrigerant efferent duct 6 at last.Owing to pass through first in the refrigerant flow process behind the first passage 201 of flat tube 2 through second channel 202, and little than second channel 202 of the channel cross-sectional area of first passage 201, so the refrigerant flowing space increases gradually, is conducive to the evaporation of refrigerant.When this parallel-flow heat exchanger was used as condenser, stream was then just opposite, and the refrigerant flowing space reduces gradually, is conducive to the condensation of refrigerant.
Please refer to Fig. 1, in the micro-channel heat exchanger of prior art, because the passage in the time of will guaranteeing the welding of header and flat tube in the flat tube is not blocked by solder flux, flat tube must be inserted certain depth in the header, and this can be subject to the larger obstruction of flat tube will cause cold-producing medium to flow the time in header, and the connected mode of input pipe and header among Fig. 1, to cause distributing more near the flat tube refrigerant at input pipe place, distance input pipe flat tube refrigerant far away distributes less, namely causes coolant distribution uneven.And the parallel-flow heat exchanger among the present invention has adopted above-mentioned header 1, refrigerant is first through the 3rd cavity 13, just enter passage in the flat tube 2 through the first through hole 113 subsequently, avoided the collision of inserting header 1 part with flat tube 2 in the flow process, reduced the stroke resistance, reduce the power of compressor, thereby improved the heat exchange efficiency.In addition, by the second through hole 115 on the adjusting header 1 and size and the spacing of the first through hole 113, require distance input/efferent duct intercommunicating pore area far away larger, so that distance input/efferent duct place far away can be assigned to the refrigerant of equivalent equally, thereby improved the uniformity of coolant distribution, improved the exchange capability of heat of parallel-flow heat exchanger.
Parallel-flow heat exchanger of the present invention has been realized mixing and the secondary distribution of refrigerant equally at header 1 place, as seen the described parallel-flow heat exchanger of this patent has been realized the same stream of common double rows parallel flow heat exchanger shown in Figure 1, solving the inhomogeneity problem of leaving air temp simultaneously, structure is more compact, it is less to take up room, process more simply, cost is more excellent.
Below only be the preferred embodiments of the present invention; be not so limit claim of the present invention; every equivalent structure or equivalent flow process conversion that utilizes specification of the present invention and accompanying drawing content to do; or directly or indirectly be used in other relevant technical fields, all in like manner be included in the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
