Bevorzugt erstreckt sich der Sammelbehälter in Bezug zur Kondensatorbreite verkürzt, insbesondere nur über zwei Drittel der Kondensatorbreite, insbesondere nur über die Hälfte der Kondensatorbreite.Preferably, the collecting container extends in relation to the capacitor width shortened, in particular only over two thirds of the capacitor width, in particular only over half of the capacitor width.
Die Aufgabe wird auch durch eine Klimaanlage gelöst, die eine erfindungsgemäße Kondensatorbaugruppe aufweist. Die Kondensatorbaugruppe weist Rohre zum Durchströmen des Fluids auf, ein erstes Sammelrohr, ein zweites Sammelrohr, einen Sammelbehälter und einen Einlass sowie einen Auslass. Der Sammelbehälter und das erste Sammelrohr stehen durch Verbindungsöffnungen in Fluidverbindung, der Strömungsweg des Kühlmittels wird hierbei durch die Verbindungsöffnung einerseits und durch Strömungsleitbleche oder Trennwände andererseits realisiert. Das Kühlmittel kann durch die Verbindungsöffnungen von dem Sammelrohr durch den Sammelbehälter zur Auslassöffnung strömen können, wenn diese am Sammelbehälter angeordnet ist. Wenn die Einlassöffnung am Sammelbehälter angeordnet ist, ist eine Öffnung vorgesehen, durch die der Sammelbehälter und das Sammelrohr in Fluidverbindung stehen, sodass das Kühlmittel durch die Eintrittsöffnung durch den Sammelbehälter in das erste Sammelrohr und in die am ersten Sammelrohr angeschlossenen Rohre strömen kann. Die Rohre sind derart angeordnet, dass diese einen Überhitzungsbereich zum Kühlen des dampfförmigen Kühlmittels und einen Kondensationsbereich zum Kondensieren des Kühlmittels sowie einen Unterkühlbereich zum weiteren Kühlen des flüssigen Kühlmittels bilden. Die Länge der Rohre definiert eine Länge der Kondensatorbaugruppe. Die Anzahl und die Höhe (vertikal verlaufende Abmessung) der übereinander und/oder nebeneinander angeordneten Rohre definieren eine Breite und der Durchmesser bzw. die horizontal verlaufende Abmessung definiert eine Tiefe der Kondensatorbaugruppe. Hierbei ist der Sammelbehälter bevorzugt vertikal entlang der Breite der Kondensatorbaugruppe angeordnet. Sind die Einlass- und die Auslassöffnung am ersten Sammelrohr und/oder am Sammelbehälter angeordnet, kann die Kondensatorbaugruppe eine gerade Anzahl von Strömungspfaden im Kondensationsbereich und im Unterkühlbereich aufweisen. Ist die Auslassöffnung am zweiten Sammelrohr angeordnet, kann die Kondensatorbaugruppe eine ungerade Anzahl von Strömungspfaden aufweisen. Durch die Anordnung mindestens der Einlassöffnung am Sammelbehälter ist eine Erweiterung der Bauraumfreiheit realisiert worden. Ferner kann eine deutliche Erweiterung der Möglichkeiten bei der thermodynamischen Auslegung der Kondensatorbaugruppe erreicht werden. Außerdem kann der Herstellungsprozess verbessert werden, der Lötprozess kann einfacher gestaltet werden und es ist eine Reduktion des Materialeinsatzes ermöglicht.The object is also achieved by an air conditioner having a capacitor assembly according to the invention. The condenser assembly has tubes for flowing the fluid, a first header, a second header, a header and an inlet, and an outlet. The collecting container and the first collecting pipe are in fluid communication through connecting openings, the flow path of the coolant is in this case realized by the connecting opening on the one hand and by Strömungsleitbleche or partitions on the other. The coolant may be allowed to flow through the communication holes from the header through the header to the outlet when disposed on the header. When the inlet opening is arranged on the collecting container, an opening is provided, through which the collecting container and the collecting tube are in fluid communication, so that the coolant can flow through the inlet opening through the collecting container into the first collecting tube and into the tubes connected to the first collecting tube. The tubes are arranged such that they form an overheating region for cooling the vaporous coolant and a condensation region for condensing the coolant and a subcooling region for further cooling the liquid coolant. The length of the tubes defines a length of the capacitor assembly. The number and height (vertical dimension) of the stacked and / or juxtaposed tubes defines a width and the diameter or horizontal dimension defines a depth of the capacitor assembly. In this case, the collecting container is preferably arranged vertically along the width of the capacitor assembly. If the inlet and outlet openings are arranged on the first collection tube and / or on the collection container, the condenser assembly may have an even number of Have flow paths in the condensation region and in the subcooling. If the outlet port is located on the second header, the condenser assembly may have an odd number of flow paths. By arranging at least the inlet opening on the collecting container, an extension of the installation space freedom has been realized. Furthermore, a significant expansion of the possibilities in the thermodynamic design of the capacitor assembly can be achieved. In addition, the manufacturing process can be improved, the soldering process can be made simpler and it is possible to reduce the use of materials.
Bevorzugt ist die Auslassöffnung ebenfalls an dem ersten Sammelrohr und/oder an dem Sammelbehälter angeordnet und steht mit dem ersten Sammelrohr und/oder dem Sammelbehälter in Fluidverbindung. Somit sind Einlassöffnung und Auslassöffnung auf derselben Seite der Kondensatorbaugruppe angeordnet und dadurch können auch die Anschlüsse an den Kühlkreislauf kompakt geführt werden. Dadurch kann der Bauraum für die Kondensatorbaugruppe optimiert werden. Die Rohre sind bevorzugt derart angeordnet, dass mindestens zwei Rohre in einem Kondensationsbereich und mindestens zwei Rohre in einem Unterkühlbereich angeordnet sind. In dieser Ausgestaltung sind die Einlassöffnung und die Auslassöffnung bevorzugt am Sammelbehälter angeordnet, wobei die Einlassöffnung im Kondensationsbereich angeordnet ist. Die Auslassöffnung ist am Unterkühlbereich angeordnet, bevorzugt mit dem zweiten Strömungspfad des Unterkühlbereichs verbunden. Die Eintrittsöffnung und die Auslassöffnung sind bevorzugt mit einem Flansch versehen, wobei die Flansche der Eintrittsöffnung und der Austrittsöffnung an dem ersten Sammelrohr und/oder dem Sammelbehälter angeordnet und/oder mit diesem verbindbar sind. Mittels der Flansche können Schläuche oder Leitungen des Kühlmittelkreislaufs der Klimaanlage mit der Kondensatorbaugruppe verbunden werden.Preferably, the outlet opening is likewise arranged on the first collecting tube and / or on the collecting container and is in fluid communication with the first collecting tube and / or the collecting container. Thus, the inlet opening and the outlet opening are arranged on the same side of the condenser assembly and thereby the connections to the cooling circuit can be made compact. As a result, the space for the capacitor assembly can be optimized. The tubes are preferably arranged such that at least two tubes are arranged in a condensation region and at least two tubes are arranged in a supercooling region. In this embodiment, the inlet opening and the outlet opening are preferably arranged on the collecting container, wherein the inlet opening is arranged in the condensation region. The outlet opening is arranged at the subcooling region, preferably connected to the second flow path of the subcooling region. The inlet opening and the outlet opening are preferably provided with a flange, wherein the flanges of the inlet opening and the outlet opening are arranged on the first collecting tube and / or the collecting container and / or can be connected thereto. By means of the flanges hoses or lines of the coolant circuit of the air conditioner can be connected to the condenser assembly.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Kondensatorbaugruppe erstreckt sich der Sammelbehälter nahezu über die komplette Breite. Die Breite ist durch die Abmessungen übereinander angeordneter Rohre definiert und kann sowohl durch den Abstand der Rohre zueinander als auch durch die Abmessung der Rohre definiert werden. Der Sammelbehälter erstreckt sich bevorzugt in vertikaler Richtung an der Stirnseite der Rohre, wobei das erste Sammelrohr zwischen dem Sammelbehälter und den Rohren angeordnet ist. Hierbei sind/ist die Einlassöffnung und/oder die Auslassöffnung bevorzugt zwischen dem Sammelbehälter und dem ersten Sammelrohr angeordnet. Dadurch kann eine erhebliche Bauraumeinsparung in Längserstreckung gesehen realisiert werden. Dies ist für den Einbau in Kleinwagen mit einem begrenzten Motorraum von Vorteil.In a preferred embodiment of the capacitor assembly, the collecting container extends almost over the entire width. The width is defined by the dimensions of tubes arranged one above the other and can be defined both by the distance of the tubes from one another and also by the dimension of the tubes. The collecting container preferably extends in the vertical direction at the end face of the tubes, wherein the first collecting tube is arranged between the collecting container and the tubes. In this case, the inlet opening and / or the outlet opening are preferably arranged between the collecting container and the first collecting tube. As a result, a considerable space savings seen in the longitudinal direction can be realized. This is advantageous for installation in small cars with a limited engine compartment.
In der Kondensatorbaugruppe können der Flansch der Einlassöffnung und/oder der Flansch der Auslassöffnung am Sammelbehälter oder Sammelbehälter angeordnet sein. Hierbei kann die Strömungsführung mit bekannten Sammelrohren erfolgen, wobei die Strömungsführung im Inneren des Sammelbehälters durch einen ohnehin vorhandenen Trockner und/oder ein Filterelement übernommen werden. Zusätzlich kann die Strömungsführung auch mittels des Verschlusselements vorgesehen sein.In the condenser assembly, the flange of the inlet opening and / or the flange of the outlet opening may be disposed on the sump or sump. In this case, the flow guidance can take place with known collecting pipes, wherein the flow guidance in the interior of the collecting container is taken over by an already existing dryer and / or a filter element. In addition, the flow guide can also be provided by means of the closure element.
