  • a heat exchanger is known from WO 94/14021 .
  • a microchannel heat exchanger (MCHX) includes flat tubes that extend between an inlet manifold and an outlet manifold. Refrigerant flows through the flat tubes and exchanges heat with air that passes over the tubes.
  • a distributor tube can be used to decrease maldistribution of the refrigerant in the inlet manifold.
  • the distributor tube includes an inlet, an outlet and orifices. Refrigerant enters the tube through the inlet, and the outlet is blocked to discharge the refrigerant through the orifices.
  • the build-up of pressure in the distributor tube causes the refrigerant to equally distribute along the length of the distributor tube.
  • the orifices are appropriately sized to cause a pressure drop or build-up in the distributor tube.
  • the distributor tube and the orifices are also sized appropriately to reduce the amount of separation of vapor refrigerant and liquid refrigerant in the two-phase refrigerant flow.
  • the inlet manifold is long (such as greater than 800mm)
  • the pressure drop along the length of the distributor tube will be uneven, and the refrigerant will not equally distribute along the length of the distributor tube.
  • Exemplary embodiments of the invention include a heat exchanger including tubes and an inlet manifold to direct a first fluid into the tubes at a third direction. Heat is exchanged between the first fluid and a second fluid in the tubes.

  • the first length a of the short tube 34a is approximately 30-70% of the second length b of the long tube 34b, considering the pressure balance within the tubes 34a and 34b.
  • the second length b of the long tube 34b is approximately equal to the length d of the inlet manifold 40.
  • the second length b of the long tube 34b can be slightly less than the length d of the inlet manifold 40, such as approximately 94 to 100% of the length d of the inlet manifold 40.
  • the tubes 34a and 34b each include orifices 58a and 58b, respectively.
  • the orifices 58a and 58b are appropriately sized to cause a pressure drop or a pressure build-up in the distributor tube 34 and to reduce the separation of vapor refrigerant and liquid refrigerant in the two-phase refrigerant flow.
  • the orifices 58a of the short tube 34a are linearly aligned and are located in a section 75 defined between the ends 62a and 64a of the short tube 34a.

  • the orifices 58b direct refrigerant flowing through the long tube 34b into the inlet manifold 40 at a second direction F.
  • the refrigerant directed into the inlet manifold 40 is then directed through the openings 41 and into one of the flat tubes 44 for heat exchange with the air at a third direction G.
  • first direction E and the second direction F are oriented at an angle relative to the third direction G.
  • first direction E and the second direction F can be oriented at an angle that is approximately 45° to 315° clockwise from the third direction G.
  • the orifices 58a and 58b can be located at any number of locations and are located in a way that helps to induce and cause additional mixing when the refrigerant is discharged from the tubes 34a and 34b.
  • the second direction F is approximately 135° clockwise relative to the third direction G
  • the first direction E is approximately 225° clockwise (or 135° counter-clockwise) relative to the third direction G.
  • the refrigerant exiting the expansion device 26 is in two phases and includes approximately 80% vapor and approximately 20% liquid by mass.
  • the density of the liquid refrigerant is approximately 10-100 times greater than the density of the vapor refrigerant. Therefore, the vapor refrigerant flows faster than the liquid refrigerant.
  • Refrigerant from the expansion device 26 enters the distributor tube 34 through the inlet tube 50 and flows into the tubes 34a and 34b.
  • the flow splitter 52 divides the refrigerant entering the inlet manifold 40 such that approximately 50% enters the short tube 34a and approximately 50% enters the long tube 34b.

  • the refrigerant is equally distributed to each section 73 and 75 as half of the refrigerant is provided to each tube 34a and 34b.
  • An equal distribution of refrigerant is possible as half of the refrigerant is provided to each half of the length d of the inlet manifold 40 for distribution to the flat tubes 44.
  • As a portion of the refrigerant is specifically designated for distribution to a specific section 73 and 75 of the inlet manifold 40, a better distribution of refrigerant is possible in each section 73 and 75 of the inlet manifold 40.
  • the length d of the inlet manifold 40 is very long, such as greater than 800 mm.
  • the length d of the inlet manifold 40 is 800 mm
