Description

Air conditioner

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, in particular to an air conditioner with uniformly distributed refrigerant.

Background

At present, a heat pump type air conditioner is a kind of cooling and heating air conditioner which is often used. When cooling in summer, the air conditioner cools indoors and radiates heat outdoors, and when heating in winter, the direction is opposite to that in summer, namely, the air conditioner heats indoors and cools outdoors. The air conditioner exchanges heat and cold between different environments through a heat pump. For example, in winter, outdoor air, ground water, underground water and the like are low-temperature heat sources, indoor air is a high-temperature heat source, and the heat pump type air conditioner is used for transferring heat of an outdoor environment into the indoor environment.

Referring to fig. 1, a schematic diagram of a heating cycle of a heat pump in the prior art is shown. The heat pump includes: the system comprises an evaporator 1, a compressor 2, a condenser 3, an expansion valve 4 and a four-way reversing valve 5. The specific working process of the heat pump heating is as follows: first, a low-pressure two-phase refrigerant (a mixture of a liquid-phase refrigerant and a gas-phase refrigerant) in the evaporator 1 absorbs heat from a low-temperature environment; the gas refrigerant is sucked by the compressor 2 and then compressed into a high-temperature high-pressure gas refrigerant; then, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas refrigerant releases heat energy to the indoor environment in the condenser 3, and the temperature of the gas refrigerant is reduced; finally, the refrigerant is throttled by the expansion valve mechanism 4 to become a low-temperature low-pressure two-phase refrigerant, and the refrigerant enters the evaporator 1 again, and the above-described cycle heating process is repeated. The heat exchanger described herein comprises the evaporator 1 and the condenser 3 described above.

The heat pump air conditioner changes working condition modes through the four-way reversing valve 5. Under the refrigeration working condition in summer, the indoor heat exchanger is used as the evaporator 1, and the outdoor heat exchanger is used as the condenser 3. The indoor air is cooled down by the surface of the evaporator 1 to achieve the purpose of reducing the indoor temperature, and the heat is transmitted to the outdoor through the condenser 3. When heat is supplied in winter, the position of the valve block of the four-way reversing valve 5 is changed, so that the flow direction of the refrigerant is changed, and at the moment, the refrigerant absorbs heat in the environment through the outdoor heat exchanger and releases heat to the indoor environment, so that the purpose of heating is achieved.

The evaporator 1 is a device for outputting cold energy, and functions to evaporate the refrigerant liquid flowing in through the expansion valve 4 to absorb heat of the object to be cooled, thereby achieving the purpose of refrigeration. The condenser 3 is a device for outputting heat, and the heat absorbed from the evaporator 1 and the heat converted by the work consumed by the compressor 2 are carried away by the cooling medium in the condenser 3, so as to achieve the purpose of heating. The evaporator 1 and the condenser 3 are important parts for heat exchange in the air-conditioning heat pump unit, and the performance of the evaporator and the condenser directly affects the performance of the whole system.

Compared with a finned tube heat exchanger, the micro-channel heat exchanger has remarkable advantages in the aspects of material cost, refrigerant filling amount, heat flux density and the like, and accords with the development trend of energy conservation and environmental protection of the heat exchanger. The microchannel heat exchanger comprises components such as flat tubes, fins, distributors and the like. When the microchannel heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, when a gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant enters a plurality of flat tubes from an inner cavity of the distributor, the flowing refrigerant is easy to separate under the action of gravity and viscous force due to the difference between the density and the viscosity of a gas phase and a liquid phase, so that the refrigerant entering the plurality of flat tubes is uneven. In particular, the insert type microchannel heat exchanger is designed to have a vertical or vertically inclined installation direction, so that the shunting difficulty is increased. Refrigerant non-uniformity not only deteriorates heat exchange efficiency but also causes fluctuation of the refrigeration system. Therefore, it is an important issue to achieve uniform distribution of two-phase refrigerant in different flat tubes in the same flow.

[ Heat exchanger ]

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the heat exchanger in this embodiment is a microchannel heat exchanger, the heat exchanger includes a plurality of flat tubes 40 and fins 50 arranged at equal intervals, a plurality of microchannels for circulating a refrigerant are formed in the flat tubes 40, the fins 50 are disposed between two adjacent flat tubes 40, a flow direction of air flowing through the fins 50 is perpendicular to a flow direction of the refrigerant flowing through the flat tubes 40, and heat/cold released by the refrigerant in the flat tubes 40 is taken away by heat dissipation fins and air flow.

The flat tube 40 samples porous microchannel aluminum alloy, and the fin 50 is aluminum alloy with a brazing composite layer on the surface, so that the weight is light, and the heat exchange efficiency is high.

The heat exchanger further comprises a flow divider 20, a collecting pipe 30 and a distributor 40, wherein the refrigerant liquid entering from the flow divider 20 is uniformly distributed to the flat pipes 40 in the first flow path, and then is collected by the collecting pipe 30. The gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant collected by the collecting main 30 enters the flat tube 40 in the second flow path through the distributor 10. In the second flow, the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is uniformly distributed into each flat tube 40 in the second flow by the distributor 10, and heat exchange is performed through the fins 50.

[ Dispenser ]

The invention focuses on improving the structure of the distributor 10 in the heat exchanger, so that the gas-liquid separation phenomenon of the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant due to the difference between the gas-liquid density and the viscosity is avoided, and the uniformity of the refrigerant entering the second flow flat tube 40 is improved.

Referring to fig. 4 to 6 and 9, a mixing chamber 100, a backflow chamber 200, and a plurality of flow dividing sections 400 are formed in the distributor 10.

The mixing chamber 100 communicates with the external refrigeration line 60, and the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant in the refrigeration line 60 flows into the mixing chamber 100.

The return chamber 200 communicates with the mixing chamber 100, and a portion of the refrigerant in the mixing chamber 100 may return to the mixing chamber 100 through the return chamber 200.

The distributor 10 adopts a backflow method, so that the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is impacted, mixed and circulated in the mixing cavity 100, and the gas-liquid separation phenomenon is avoided.

Specifically, when the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is evaporated in the heat exchanger, a part of the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant input into the mixing chamber 100 through the refrigeration pipeline 60 directly flows upward to enter the flow dividing section 400, and then enters the flat tube 40 through the flow dividing section 400; another portion flows back into the reflow chamber 200.

Fig. 5 and 7 are schematic cross-sectional views of the distributor 10 shown in fig. 3 at different positions to clearly and intuitively illustrate the structures of the mixing chamber 100, the recirculation chamber 200, and the flow-splitting section 400.

In some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIGS. 8-10, the mixing chamber 100 and the return chamber 200 are separated by a partition 300, and the partition 300 is provided with a first port 310 and a second port 320.

The refrigerant in the mixing chamber 100 may flow into the return chamber 200 through the first port 310, and the refrigerant in the return chamber 200 may flow into the mixing chamber 100 through the second port 320, thereby creating a circulating flow of refrigerant between the mixing chamber 100 and the return chamber 200.

The area of the second port 320 is smaller than that of the first port 310, so that the refrigerant flowing from the second port 320 to the mixing chamber 100 is accelerated, the impact on the refrigerant in the mixing chamber 100 is enhanced, and the uniformity effect of mixing is improved.

In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 10, a refrigerant inlet 110 is disposed on a sidewall of the mixing chamber 100, and the refrigeration line 60 is in communication with the refrigerant inlet 110.

The axial center of the refrigerant inlet 110 and the axial center of the second port 320 are on the same horizontal plane, and the direction in which the refrigerant flows from the refrigerant inlet 110 is perpendicular to the direction in which the refrigerant flows from the second port 320.

In this way, the refrigerant flowing into the mixing chamber 100 from the second port 320 performs a maximum jet impact action on the refrigerant flowing into the mixing chamber 100 from the refrigerant inlet 110, contributing to further improving the mixing uniformity of the refrigerant.

In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 8, the cavity enclosed by the mixing chamber 100 and the backflow chamber 200 extends in a horizontal direction, the flow dividing section 400 is disposed at an upper portion of the cavity, and the inlet 430 of the flow dividing section is disposed on a top wall of the cavity.

The partition 300 extends along the length direction of the cavity, the top end of the partition 300 is connected to the top wall of the cavity, a first port 310 is formed between one end of the partition 300 far from the refrigerant inlet 110 and the side wall of the cavity, and a second port 320 is formed between one end of the partition 300 close to the refrigerant inlet 110 and the side wall of the cavity.

In some embodiments of the present application, referring to fig. 5 to 8, reposition of redundant personnel section 400 includes reposition of redundant personnel vertical section 410 and reposition of redundant personnel horizontal segment 420 of intercommunication, and the entry of reposition of redundant personnel vertical section 410 (also the entry 430 of reposition of redundant personnel section) is located on the roof of cavity, and communicates with mixing chamber 100 and return flow chamber 200 respectively, and the export of reposition of redundant personnel horizontal segment 420 communicates with flat pipe 40 that corresponds, and a plurality of reposition of redundant personnel vertical sections 410 set up along the length direction interval of cavity.

The fluid inertial force and the gravity force relative magnitude are characterized according to the froude number Fr = U2/gL. When Fr >1, the inertial force of the fluid in the split vertical section 410 can overcome its gravity to drive the fluid to flow upward, thereby limiting the width of the split vertical section 410.

In this embodiment, the width of the split vertical section 410 is 0.2-1.5mm, and preferably 1 mm.

A plurality of flat pipes 40 set up along vertical direction interval, and the flat pipe 40 that is located the lowest communicates with the reposition of redundant personnel section 400 of keeping away from refrigerant inlet 110, and the flat pipe 40 that is located the highest communicates with the reposition of redundant personnel section 400 that is close to refrigerant inlet 110. So configured, no interference is generated between the plurality of split flow horizontal segments 420 and the plurality of split flow vertical segments 410, and the refrigerant can conveniently circulate along the split flow segment 400 in the distributor 10.

In the present embodiment, referring to fig. 9, the area of the inlet of the vertical flow splitting section 410 communicating with the mixing chamber 100 is equal to the area of the inlet of the vertical flow splitting section 410 communicating with the backflow chamber 200.

In this embodiment, referring to fig. 5, towards the direction that is close to refrigerant inlet 110, the high linearity of reposition of redundant personnel vertical section 410 increases, makes a plurality of flat pipes 40 evenly lay along vertical direction, helps improving the heat transfer homogeneity between flat pipe 40 and fin 50, and then improves the heat transfer homogeneity of whole heat exchanger.

In this embodiment, because the flat tube 40 located at the lower position is closer to the mixing chamber 100, the stroke of the refrigerant which has been uniformly mixed by impact in the mixing chamber 100 when entering the flat tube 40 at the lower position through the flow dividing section 400 is shorter, and the refrigerant is not easy to generate gas-liquid separation during the short-distance conveying.

The flat pipe 40 at the high position is far away from the mixing cavity 100, so that the stroke of the uniformly-impacted-mixed refrigerant in the mixing cavity 100 entering the flat pipe 40 at the high position through the flow dividing section 400 is long, and the refrigerant is subjected to gravity influence and can generate a small amount of gas-liquid separation in the long-distance conveying process.

So make the refrigerant liquid flow who is located flat pipe 40 of low department can be unnecessary to be located the refrigerant liquid flow of the flat pipe 40 of eminence, the uneven heat transfer homogeneity that can influence the heat exchanger of refrigerant liquid flow.

Therefore, referring to fig. 6, in this embodiment, the inlet area of the split-flow vertical section 410 is linearly increased toward the direction close to the refrigerant inlet 110, so as to reduce the refrigerant flow rate of the flat tubes 40 at the lower position and increase the refrigerant flow rate of the flat tubes at the higher position, so that the refrigerant liquid flow rates in the flat tubes 40 are consistent, and the heat exchange uniformity of the heat exchanger is improved.

In the present embodiment, the inlet area of the dividing vertical section 410 farthest from the refrigerant inlet 110 is set to be S1, and the inlet area of the dividing vertical section 410 closest to the refrigerant inlet 110 is set to be S2, and S1= (1/3-1/2) S2, so as to achieve the best heat exchange effect.

In some embodiments, the cavity enclosed by the mixing chamber 100 and the reflow chamber 200 is a pentagonal prism shape, which extends in a horizontal direction.

Referring to fig. 6 and 9, the top walls of the cavity surrounded by the mixing chamber 100 and the backflow chamber 200 include a first top wall 510 and a second top wall 520 which are arranged obliquely downwards, and the intersection of the first top wall 510 and the second top wall 520 is the top end of the cavity.

The upper end of the partition 300 is connected to the intersection of the first ceiling wall 510 and the second ceiling wall 520, wherein the first ceiling wall 510 is the ceiling wall of the mixing chamber 100, and the second ceiling wall 520 is the ceiling wall of the reflow chamber 200.

The top of the chamber surrounded by the mixing chamber 100 and the return chamber 200 forms a taper structure, which plays a certain collecting role for the refrigerant, and facilitates the refrigerant to flow into the flow dividing section 400.

In this embodiment, the number of flat tubes 40 that can be carried by the distributor 10 is 2 to 100.
