Definitions

  • the invention relates to a heat exchanger, in particular for motor vehicles, having a heat exchanger block which can be flowed through by a first medium on the primary side and can be flowed around on the secondary side by a second medium.
  • the local heat exchanger consists inter alia of flat tubes with flow channels, z. B. extruded multi-chamber pipes, which are flowed through by a first medium, preferably a refrigerant, in particular CO2.
  • the flat tubes are arranged parallel to each other and have flat tube ends, which are held in so-called end pieces, consisting of a bottom plate, a baffle plate and a cover plate. The end pieces each form a distribution or deflection unit for the refrigerant.
  • a particularly pressure-resistant heat exchanger is provided, which is particularly suitable for use in a powered with CO2 refrigerant circuit for a motor vehicle air conditioning, on the one hand as an evaporator and on the other hand as a gas cooler, wherein the secondary side loading takes place in each case by ambient air.
  • a heat exchanger in particular for a motor vehicle, is provided with a heat exchanger block, which on the primary side of a first medium and throughflowable on the secondary side of a second medium umströmbare pipes with flow channels and pipe ends, at least one Has tube ends receiving end piece with at least one base plate, distribution or baffle plate and cover plate and at least one connected to one or one end piece inlet and / or outlet chamber, wherein the first medium from the inlet chamber through the flow channels to the outlet chamber is conductive, and with a housing jacket enclosing the tubes with an inlet and an outlet for the second medium, wherein between the tubes corrugated sheets are arranged with longitudinal channels and the corrugated sheets are parallelogram-shaped and approximately triangular or trapezoidal inflow and outflow leave areas between the pipes.
  • a heat exchanger block consisting of tubes and at least one end piece, surrounded by a housing shell, through which a second medium is conductive.
  • the heat exchanger according to the invention can be used in this heat pump cycle both as a CO2 evaporator, which absorbs heat from the coolant, as well as a CO2 gas cooler, the heat to the coolant.
  • the housing shell which can be produced as a sheet metal part, allows many variations with regard to the flow guidance of the Coolant, so that a DC, countercurrent, crossflow and DC / counter crossflow is possible.

  • the inlet and the outlet for the second medium may be arranged on the same side, on opposite sides and at opposite ends of the housing shell, wherein the housing jacket is flowed through in particular in the longitudinal direction. This results in the possibility of the direct current and the countercurrent of the first and the second medium.
  • distribution and collection chambers are formed in the housing shell in the region of inlet and outlet, so that the second medium is distributed uniformly over the individual gaps between the tubes or collected at the outlet.
  • turbulence inserts or corrugated ribs are arranged between the tubes, which form longitudinal channels and thus a guide in the longitudinal direction of the tubes for the second medium.
  • these turbulence inserts stretch only between the inlet and the outlet of the second medium, so that in the region of inlet and outlet in each case an inflow and an outflow are left, in which a cross-flow of the second medium, d. H. can be transverse to the longitudinal direction of the tubes.
  • the tubes from the second medium can also be overflowed in the transverse direction, namely one or more flooded.
  • This can be done by arranging lateral headers and partitions in conjunction with deflection boxes in the housing shell.
  • the turbulence inserts or the ribbing between the tubes is then designed so that transverse channels for guiding the second medium result. This ensures that both media, such as a refrigerant and a coolant can be performed in cross-DC or cross-countercurrent. This results in a more intense heat exchange.
