Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem einen mit einem derartigen Rippen/Rohrblock ausgestatteten Wärmeübertrager.The present invention relates to a rib / tube block for a heat exchanger, in particular a motor vehicle, having the features of the preamble of

Die vorliegende Erfindung beschäftigt sich mit dem Problem, für einen Rippen/Rohrblock der eingangs genannten Art bzw. für einen damit ausgestatteten Wärmeübertrager eine verbesserte Ausführungsform anzugeben, die sich insbesondere durch eine verbesserte Herstellbarkeit und vorzugsweise durch eine verbesserte Durchströmung mit einem Wärmeübertragungsmedium auszeichnet.The present invention is concerned with the problem of providing for a rib / tube block of the type mentioned or for a heat exchanger equipped therewith an improved embodiment, which is characterized in particular by improved manufacturability and preferably by improved flow with a heat transfer medium.
Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Gegenstände der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This problem is solved according to the invention by the subject matters of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf dem allgemeinen Gedanken, die Rohrendbereiche gegenüber der jeweiligen Rohrlängsrichtung geneigt auszurichten. Durch diese Bauweise kann der Rippen/Rohrblock während der Herstellung leichter gehandhabt werden, da die in der Breitenrichtung des Rippen/Rohrblocks bzw. in der Tiefenrichtung der einzelnen Rohre gestapelten Rohre in der Längsrichtung des Rippen/Rohrblocks, die parallel zu den Längsrichtungen der einzelnen Rohre verläuft, zumindest unidirektional formschlüssig in den Rohrendbereichen aneinander anliegen.The present invention is based on the general idea to align the Rohrendbereiche inclined relative to the respective pipe longitudinal direction. By this construction, the ribs / tube block can be handled more easily during the production because the tubes stacked in the width direction of the rib / tube block and in the depth direction of the individual tubes in the longitudinal direction of the rib / tube block parallel to the longitudinal directions of the individual tubes runs, at least unidirectionally form-fit in the Rohrendbereichen abut each other.
Gleichzeitig kann mit dieser Bauweise der Strömungswiderstand beim Übergang vom Sammelkasten in den Rippen/Rohrblock bzw. vom Rippen/Rohrblock in den Sammelkasten reduziert werden, wenn die Neigung der Rohrendbereiche entsprechend der jeweiligen Strömungsumlenkung orientiert ist. Zwar muss die Strömung zwischen dem jeweiligen Sammelkasten und den zwischen den Rohrendbereichen liegenden Rohrlängsbereichen des Rippen/Rohrblocks nach wie vor um etwa 90° umgelenkt werden, jedoch erfolgt diese Umlenkung nunmehr in zwei Schritten, die jeweils kleiner als 90° sind. Die erste Umlenkung erfolgt am Übergang zwischen Sammelkasten und Rohrendbereich. Der zweite Übergang erfolgt dann beim Übergang zwischen Rohrendbereich und Rohrlängsbereich. Entsprechendes gilt für die aus dem Rippen/Rohrblock austretende Strömung.At the same time can be reduced with this construction, the flow resistance in the transition from the collecting box in the ribs / tube block or from the ribs / tube block in the collection box, if the inclination of the Rohrendbereiche is oriented according to the respective flow deflection. Although the flow between the respective collection box and the tube longitudinal areas of the rib / tube block located between the pipe end areas must still be deflected by about 90 °, this deflection now takes place in two steps, each of which is less than 90 °. The first deflection takes place at the transition between collecting tank and pipe end area. The second transition then takes place at the transition between the pipe end region and the pipe longitudinal region. The same applies to the emerging from the ribs / tube block flow.
Entsprechend einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform kann bei benachbarten Rohrendbereichen jeweils eine erste Rohrwand des einen Rohrendbereichs an eine zweite Rohrwand des anderen Rohrendbereichs flächig so anschließen, dass eine Endkante der einen Rohrwand stromauf einer Endkante der anderen Rohrwand angeordnet ist.According to an advantageous embodiment, in adjacent Rohrendbereichen each have a first pipe wall of a Rohrendbereichs to a second pipe wall of the other Rohrendbereichs area connect so that an end edge of a pipe wall upstream of an end edge of the other pipe wall is arranged.
Hierdurch ergibt sich eine scharfkantige Trennung am Einlauf bzw. am Auslauf benachbarter Rohre, was strömungstechnisch von Vorteil sein kann.This results in a sharp-edged separation at the inlet or at the outlet of adjacent tubes, which can be advantageous in terms of flow.
Weitere wichtige Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen, aus den Zeichnungen und aus der zugehörigen Figurenbeschreibung anhand der Zeichnungen.Other important features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, from the drawings and from the associated figure description with reference to the drawings.
Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten und die nachstehend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Kombination, sondern auch in anderen Kombinationen oder in Alleinstellung verwendbar sind, ohne den Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung zu verlassen.It is understood that the features mentioned above and those yet to be explained below can be used not only in the particular combination given, but also in other combinations or in isolation, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
Bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung sind in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und werden in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert, wobei sich gleiche Bezugszeichen auf gleiche oder ähnliche oder funktional gleiche Bauteile beziehen.Preferred embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and will be described in more detail in the following description, wherein like reference numerals refer to the same or similar or functionally identical components.

Entsprechend Fig. 1 umfasst ein Rippen/Rohrblock 1 eines Wärmeübertragers 2 (vgl. Fig. 5) mehrere Rohre 3, die in einer Breitenrichtung B des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 aufeinander gestapelt sind. Dabei entspricht diese Breitenrichtung B des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 einer Tiefenrichtung t der einzelnen Rohre 3. Zwischen benachbarten Rohren 3 sind jeweils Wellrippen 4 angeordnet, die eine Durchströmung des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 in einer Tiefenrichtung T des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 unter Umströmung der Rohre 3 ermöglicht. Dabei erstreckt sich die Tiefenrichtung T des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 parallel zu den Breitenrichtungen b der einzelnen Rohre 3. Die einzelnen Rohre 3 sind dabei Flachrohre, die vorzugsweise einen Rechteckquerschnitt aufweisen aber auch einen Arenenformquerschnitt aufweisen können. Die Rohre 3 können längsnahtgeschweißt oder extrudiert sein.1, a fin /
In einer Längsrichtung L des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1, die parallel zu Längsrichtungen I der einzelnen Rohre 3 verläuft, besitzt der Rippen/Rohrblock 1 zwei voneinander entfernte Randseiten 5 bzw. 6. In diesen Randseiten 5, 6 besitzt jedes Rohr 3 einen Rohrendbereich 7. Zumindest an einer dieser Randseiten 5, 6, vorzugsweise an beiden Randseiten 5, 6, sind alle Rohrendbereiche 7 aufgeweitet und flächig aneinander anschließend zu einem Rohrendpaket 8 bzw. 9 zusammengefügt. Die Rohrendbereiche 7 sind dabei in der jeweiligen Rohrtiefenrichtung t jeweils bezüglich eines zwischen zwei Rohrendbereichen 7 liegenden Rohrlängsbereichs 10 des jeweiligen Rohrs 3 aufgeweitet, so dass sie in der Blockbreitenrichtung B aneinanderliegen. Entsprechend den Fig. 1 und 2 sind zumindest an einer Randseite 5 oder 6, vorzugsweise an beiden Randseiten 5 und 6, alle Rohrendbereiche 7 des jeweiligen Rohrendpakets 8 bzw. 9 jeweils gegenüber der jeweiligen Rohrlängsrichtung I geneigt. Dabei neigen sich sämtliche Rohrendbereiche 7 innerhalb des jeweiligen Rohrendpakets 8 bzw. 9 gleichsinnig und gleichwinklig. Die Neigung der Rohrendbereiche 7 erfolgt dabei jeweils um eine nicht eingezeichnete Biegeachse, die senkrecht auf dem Rippen/Rohrblock 1 steht, also parallel zur Blocktiefenrichtung T bzw. parallel zur jeweiligen Rohrbreitenrichtung b verläuft. Durch die Neigung der Rohrendbereiche 7 innerhalb des Rohrendpakets 8 bzw. 9 ergibt sich in der Blocklängsrichtung L bzw. in den Rohlängsrichtungen I eine formschlüssige Anlage benachbarter Rohrendbereiche 7 aneinander, zumindest unidirektional.In a longitudinal direction L of the ribs /
Sofern wie hier in beiden Rohrendpaketen 8, 9 die Rohrendbereiche 7 gegenüber den Rohrlängsbereichen 10 geneigt sind, ist es grundsätzlich entsprechend den Fig. 1 und 3 möglich, die Rohrendbereiche 7 des einen Rohrendpakets 8 und die Rohrendbereiche 7 des anderen Rohrendpakets 9 gleichsinnig gegenüber den Rohrlängsbereichen 10 zu neigen. Hierdurch ergibt sich für das jeweilige Rohr 3 in Rohrbreitenrichtung b eine C-Form. Bei dieser Ausführungsform sind die einzelnen Rohre 3 innerhalb des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 in der Rohrlängsrichtung I an den Rohrendbereichen 7 bidirektional formschlüssig aneinander angeordnet, was die Handhabung des Rippen/Rohrblocks 1 während seiner Herstellung zusätzlich vereinfacht.If, as here in both
Im Unterschied dazu können entsprechend Fig. 4 die Rohrendbereiche 7 des einen Rohrendpakets 8 und die Rohrendbereiche 7 des anderen Rohrendpakets 9 gegensinnig gegenüber den Rohrlängsbereichen 10 geneigt sein, wodurch sich für das jeweilige Rohr 3 in der Rohrbreitenrichtung b eine S-Form ergibt.In contrast, according to Fig. 4, the
Entsprechend Fig. 2 sind die jeweiligen Rohrendbereiche 7 in der Rohrtiefenrichtung t aufgeweitet, während sie gleichzeitig in der Rohrbreitenrichtung b eingezogen sind. Der Einzug und die Aufweitung der Rohrendbereiche 7 können dabei so aufeinander abgestimmt sein, dass ein freier Strömungsquerschnitt im jeweiligen Rohrendbereich 7 etwa gleich groß ist wie im Rohrlängsbereich 10 des jeweiligen Rohrs 3. Hierdurch können Strömungswiderstände durch Querschnittsänderungen reduziert werden.According to Fig. 2, the
Die Umformung der Rohrendbereiche 7 erfolgt außerdem so, dass die freien Enden der Rohrendbereiche 7 jeweils etwa in einer Ebene liegen, die parallel zur Blockbreitenrichtung B und parallel zur Blocktiefenrichtung T verläuft. Die jeweilige Ebene ist in den Fig. 3 und 4 durch eine strichpunktierte Linie angedeutet und mit 11 bezeichnet.The deformation of the
Entsprechend Fig. 5 umfasst der Wärmeübertrager 2 neben dem Rippen/Rohrblock 1 zumindest einen Sammelkasten 12, der an einer der Randseiten 5 bzw. 6 angeordnet ist. Vorzugsweise ist an beiden Randseiten 5 und 6 ein derartiger Sammelkasten 12 angeordnet, wobei die beiden Sammelkästen 12 durchaus unterschiedlich ausgestaltet sein können. Dabei ist der jeweilige Sammelkasten 12 auf das zugeordnete Rohrendpaket 8 bzw. 9 aufgesetzt und mit diesem dicht verbunden. Durch den jeweiligen Sammelkasten 12 wird im Betrieb des Wärmeübertragers 2 dem Rippen/Rohrblock 1 ein flüssiges oder gasförmiges Wärmeübertragungsmedium zugeführt. Die Zuströmung ist in Fig. 5 mit durchgezogenen Pfeilen symbolisiert und mit 13 bezeichnet. In gleicher Weise ist bei anderer Strömungsrichtung durch den Sammelkasten 12 das jeweilige Wärmeübertragungsmedium vom Rippen/Rohrblock 1 abführbar. Die entsprechende Abströmung ist in Fig. 5 mit unterbrochenen Pfeilen angedeutet und mit 14 bezeichnet. Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Neigung der Rohrendbereiche 7 in Richtung einer im Sammelkasten 12 vorherrschenden Strömungsrichtung. Hierdurch kann der Strömungswiderstand beim Umlenken der Zuströmung 13 bzw. der Abströmung 14 beim Übergang zwischen Sammelkasten 12 und Rippen/Rohrblock 1 reduziert werden.According to FIG. 5, the
Bei einer Zuströmung 13 bzw. bei einer Abströmung 14, die jeweils im wesentlichen parallel zur Blockbreitenrichtung B erfolgt, beträgt die Gesamtumlenkung zwischen Sammelkasten 12 und Rippen/Rohrblock 1 etwa 90°. Entsprechend Fig. 6 wird die Umlenkung der Strömung 13 vom Sammelkasten 12 in den Rippen/Rohrblock 1 an den Rohrendbereichen 7 in zwei Teilumlenkungen unterteilt, die beide jeweils kleiner als 90° sind. Entsprechendes gilt auch für die Umlenkung der Abströmung 14 beim Übergang vom Rippen/Rohrblock 1 zum Sammelkasten 12. Zweckmäßig sind die Rohrendbereiche 7 gegenüber den Rohrlängsbereichen 10 in einem Winkelbereich von etwa 30° bis 60° gegenüber den zugehörigen Rohrlängsbereichen 10 geneigt. Bevorzugt wie in den hier gezeigten Darstellungen ist eine Neigung zwischen Rohrendbereichen 7 und zugehörigen Rohrlängsbereichen 10 von etwa 45°.In an
Entsprechend Fig. 6 weist jeder Rohrendbereich 7 in der Rohrtiefenrichtung t jeweils eine erste Rohrwand 15 und eine gegenüberliegende zweite Rohrwand 16 auf. Über diese Rohrwände 15, 16 liegen die benachbarten Rohrendbereiche 7 aneinander flächig an. Bei der hier gezeigten, bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind die Rohrendbereiche 7 so geformt, dass eine Endkante 17 der ersten Rohrwand 15 bezüglich der Zuströmung 13 stromauf einer Endkante 18 der zweiten Rohrwand 16 angeordnet ist. Bei der Abströmung 14 ist dann die Endkante 18 der zweiten Rohrwand 16 stromauf der Endkante 17 der ersten Rohrwand 15 angeordnet. Die Bauweise mit bezüglich der Strömungsrichtung 13, 14 zueinander versetzt angeordneten Endkanten 17, 18 führt zu einer scharfkantigen Abtrennung zwischen benachbarten Rohren 3. Der Übergang zwischen Sammelkasten 12 und Rippen/Rohrblock 1 erfolgt für das Wärmeübertragungsmedium dann mit einem reduzierten Widerstand.According to FIG. 6, each

Beispielsweise handelt es sich beim Wärmeübertrager 2 um einen im Bereich der Wellrippen 4 mit Kühlluft durchströmbaren Wasserkühler, Ölkühler oder Ladeluftkühler. Ebenso kann es sich beim Wärmeübertrager 2 um einen im Bereich der Wellrippen 4 mit Frischluft und/oder Umluft durchströmbaren Heizer oder Kühler zum Temperieren von einem Fahrzeuginnenraum zugeführter Luft handeln.The
