Fig. 7 is a schematic structural view of another heat exchange plate according to some embodiments of the present application. Fig. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of a shunt structure according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.
With continued reference to fig. 7 to 8, in some embodiments, the flow distributing section 312 is provided with the flow dividing strips 34, the flow dividing strips 34 are disposed to extend along the width direction of the heat exchange plate 310, the flow dividing strips 34 divide the flow distributing section 312 into two adjacent regions along the length direction of the heat exchange plate, the flow dividing strips 34 are provided with grooves 341 spaced along the width direction of the heat exchange plate 310, and the flow dividing strips 34 are stacked along the first direction X to form a flow dividing structure in the box structure.
As described above, heat exchange core 31 is a porous structure core block formed by diffusion welding and tightly connected after heat exchange plates 310 are stacked in the first direction X. The flow distribution section 312 located at the working medium inlet and the working medium outlet of the heat recovery section 311 can form a box structure with a cavity inside the heat exchange core 31, and the shunt strip 34 can be stacked along the first direction X and welded by diffusion to form a shunt structure in the box structure, wherein the groove 341 arranged on the shunt strip 34 can form a through hole on the shunt structure to realize the shunting of the working medium.
The flow dividing bar 34 and the heat exchange plate 310 may be an integrally formed structure, that is, in the process of manufacturing the groove structure of the flow distributing section 312 on the heat exchange plate 310, a part of the material is retained to form the flow dividing bar 34, and the material of the flow dividing bar 34 includes but is not limited to various stainless steels, titanium alloys, composite materials, and the like. It is understood that the flow splitting bar may be disposed in the flow distribution section 312 at the working medium inlet, may be disposed in the flow distribution section 312 at the working medium outlet, or may be disposed in both the flow distribution section 312 at the working medium inlet and the flow distribution section 312 at the working medium outlet.

The function of the heat return section 311 in the heat exchange core 31 is to provide heat exchange for the working medium flowing through the heat return section 311; the flow distribution section 312 is used for collecting the working medium at the working medium outlet of the heat recovery section 311 and distributing the working medium entering the heat exchange core 31 to each inlet of the heat recovery section 311. Specifically, working medium flow channel 313 of heat recovery section 311 in heat exchange core 31 is slender to ensure that the working medium therein can perform sufficient heat exchange; the flow distribution section 312 of the heat exchange core 31 is a cavity with an accommodation space, and the cavity is directly communicated with each working medium flow channel 313 of the heat recovery section 311, so that the flow distribution section 312 can collect the working medium at the working medium outlet of the heat recovery section 311, and distribute the working medium entering the heat exchange core 31 to each inlet of the heat recovery section 311.
The transition section 314 is arranged at the connection position between the heat recovery section 311 and the flow distribution section 312, so that before the working medium in the flow distribution section 312 enters the heat recovery section 311 through the working medium inlet of the heat recovery section 311 for heat exchange, the working medium can be firstly distributed to the transition section 314 with a larger width of the working medium flow channel 313, so that the working medium can be distributed more quickly, and then flows into the working medium flow channel 313 of the heat recovery section 311 for heat exchange. It can be understood that after the heat exchange of the working medium in the heat recovery section 311 is completed, the working medium flows into the flow distribution section 312 through the working medium outlet of the heat recovery section 311, and the working medium firstly passes through the transition section 314 with the larger width of the working medium flow channel 313 to increase the flow speed of the working medium, so that the working medium can be collected into the flow distribution section 312 more quickly.
The transition section 314 is arranged at the joint of the heat recovery section 311 and the flow distribution section 312, so that the working medium circulation speed between the heat recovery section 311 and the flow distribution section 312 can be increased, the working medium circulation speed of the whole heat exchange device 3 is increased, and the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchange device 3 is effectively improved.
In some embodiments, the second width d2 gradually decreases along the direction from the flow distribution section 312 to the heat recovery section 311.
Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, an orthographic projection of the working medium flow channel 313 of the transition section 314 on the heat exchange plate 310 in the thickness direction of the heat exchange plate 310 may be in a bell mouth shape. At the working medium inlet end of the heat recovery section 311, the small-mouth end of the horn mouth is connected to the flow distribution section 312, and the large-mouth end is connected to the heat recovery section 311; at the working medium outlet end of the heat recovery section 311, the small mouth end of the bell mouth is connected to the heat recovery section 311, and the large mouth end is connected to the flow distribution section 312. It should be understood that the orthographic projection of the working medium flow channel 313 of the transition section 314 on the heat exchange plate 310 along the thickness direction of the heat exchange plate 310 may also be any shape such as a trapezoid or a trapezoid-like shape, which can realize the change of the width, and the foregoing is only used as an example, and the present application does not limit the specific shape of the working medium flow channel 313 of the transition section 314, and a person skilled in the art may select the shape according to the actual situation.
The width of the working medium flow channel 313 of the transition section 314 is gradually reduced along the direction from the flow distribution section 312 to the heat regeneration section 311, so that the flow speed of the working medium between the flow distribution section 312 and the heat regeneration section 311 can be changed in a linear state, the phenomenon that the inside of the heat exchange core body 31 is subjected to overlarge local stress due to sudden change of the flow speed of the working medium is avoided, and the stability of the heat exchange device 3 is effectively improved.
In some embodiments, the flow distribution section 312 includes a diverging section 312a and a converging section 312b, the diverging section 312a is connected to the working medium inlet of the regenerative section 311, and the converging section 312b is connected to the working medium outlet of the regenerative section 311.
