Definitions

  • This invention relates to a room air conditioning system, and more particular to a heating/cooling unit used in the room air conditioning system.
  • heating unit 500 as shown in Figures 1 and 2 includes a heat medium conducting panel 501 which is formed by a pair of rectangular plate members 501a and a corrugated fin member 502 which is fixedly secured to an entire one side surface of panel 501.
  • the rectangular plate members 501a are made of, for example, cast iron and the corrugated fin member 502 is made of, for example, steel.
  • a plurality of passages 503 are defined between the plate members 501a in the direction of the height of panel 501, and are arranged to be aligned with one another in the direction of the width of panel 501 with equal intervals.
  • a pair of passages 504 and 505 functioning as a header are also defined between the plate members 501a at an upper and lower end portions of panel 501, respectively.
  • An upper and lower ends of each of passages 503 are linked to the pair of headers 504 and 505, respectively.
  • the pair of headers 504 and 505 are provided with a heat medium inlet and outlet pipes (not shown), respectively.
  • heating unit 500 is installed at a position which is adjacent to a wall of the room or the compartment while the corrugated fin member 502 faces to the wall.
  • the heat medium such as a hot water heated at a boiler (not shown) is conducted to the upper header 504 through the inlet pipe, and then flows therethrough while distributingly flows into the passages 503.
  • the hot water flowing into each of the passages 503 downwardly flows therethrough, and flows out to the lower header 505 while merges thereat.
  • the hot water merged at the lower header 505 flows therethrough, and then returns to the boiler via the outlet pipe to be heated again thereat. This circulation is repeated during operation of the room air conditioning system.
  • the panel 501 is heated by virtue of exchanging heat with the hot water. A part of heat of the panel 501 is radiated therefrom to warm the room or the compartment. The remainder of heat of panel 501 is conducted to the corrugated fin member 502 to heat thereof.
  • the heated corrugated fin member 502 exchanges heat with the air, which upwardly moves through a plurality of intervening spaces 502a defined in the corrugated fin member 502 by virtue of natural convection, to warm thereof. As a result, the room or the compartment is further warmed by the warm air moving from the corrugated fin member 502.
  • the above-mentioned heating unit 500 is used for purposes of heating only so that it is required to provide a separate cooling unit in order to cool the rooms or the compartments. As a result, a cost of equipment is increased, when the rooms of the house or the compartments of the office building are required to be heated and cooled.
  • a heating/cooling unit 600 which can selectively warm and cool the rooms of the house or the compartments of the office building has been prepared.
  • the heating/cooling unit 600 includes a heat exchanger, for example, a cross finned tube type heat exchanger 610 as shown in Figure 5, a motor 620 and a pair of fans, for example, multiblade fans 630 operatively connected to the motor 620.
  • the heat exchanger 610, the motor 620 and the fans 630 are contained in a casing 640 which is rectangular parallelpiped in shape.
  • the heat exchanger 610 is located at a position which is upwardly spaced from the motor 620 and the fans 630.
  • heating/cooling unit 600 is also installed at a position which is adjacent to a wall of the room or the compartment.
  • the heat medium such as a hot water heated at a boiler (not shown) is conducted to the conducting tube 611 of the heat exchanger 610 through the inlet port 611a, and then flows therethrough.
  • the hot water flowing through the conducting tube 611 returns to the boiler via the outlet port 611b to be heated again thereat. This circulation is repeated during heating operation of the room air conditioning system.
  • the hot water flows through the conducting tube 611, the hot water exchanges heat with the air, which compulsively flows in the casing 640 by virtue of operation of fans 630, through fin plates 612 to warm thereof.
  • the warm air compulsively flows out from the casing 640 through a rectangular opening 640a, which is formed at a top portion of the casing 640, by virtue of operation of fans 630.
  • a plurality of louvers 640b are disposed at the opening 640a.
  • the louvers 640b extend in the direction of the width of casing 640.
  • the warm air flowing out from the heating/cooling unit 600 circulates in the room or the compartment by natural convection, so that the room or the compartment is warmed.
  • a manner of cooling operation of the heating/cooling unit 600 is similar to that of the above-described heating operation other than only one difference described below.
  • a cold water cooled by a cooling apparatus such as a refrigerator (not shown) is conducted to the conducting tube 611 of the heat exchanger 610, and exchanges heat with the air, which compulsively flows in the casing 640 by virtue of operation of fans 630, through fin plates 612 to cool thereof.
  • the heating/cooling unit 600 when the room or the compartment is required to be warmed, the hot water is conducted into the conducting tube 611 of the heat exchanger 610.
  • the cold water is conducted into the conducting tube 611 of the heat exchanger 610. Accordingly, the room or the compartment is selectively warmed and cooled by means of selectively conducting the hot water and the cold water to the conducting tube 611 of the heat exchanger 610.
  • the outer dimensions of the heating/cooling unit 600 may be increased relative to those of the aforementioned heating unit 500 because that the heat exchanger 610 is contained in the casing 640 in order to carry out heat exchanging between the air and the heat medium under the condition where the air compulsively flows in the casing 640 by virtue of operation of the fans 630.
  • a heating/cooling unit used in a room air conditioning system comprises a heat medium conducting panel through which a heat medium flows.
