Definitions
- the fins of the same group of tubes have a monotonic profile between two neighboring tubes.
- the fins have a sinusoidal profile, the orifices and the tubes being placed at the level of ridges and hollows of said fins.
- the heat exchanger comprises a single group of tubes or at least two separate groups of tubes.
- the line connecting the ends of the tubes of the same group of tubes is a sinusoid.
- first element or second element as well as first parameter and second parameter or even first criterion and second criterion etc.
- first element or second element as well as first parameter and second parameter or even first criterion and second criterion etc.
- indexing is a simple indexing to differentiate and name elements or parameters or criteria that are close but not identical. This indexing does not imply a priority of an element, parameter or criterion over another and one can easily interchange such names without departing from the scope of this description. This indexing also does not imply an order in time for example to assess such or such criteria.
- an XYZ trihedron in order to show the angle of view of each of said figures in relation to each other.
- the axes of this trihedron can also correspond to the different orientations of the motor vehicle.
- the X axis can thus correspond to the axis of the length of the vehicle, the Y axis to the axis of its width and the Z axis to that of its height.
- the fins 4 form with a perpendicular to the axis of the tubes 3, that is to say with a parallel to the axis Y of the trihedron XYZ, an angle different from 0 °.
- the heat exchanger 1 can also include a water box 5 disposed at each end of the tubes 3. These water boxes 5 allow the collection and / or distribution of the first heat-transfer fluid so that it can pass through the tubes 3.
- the fins 4 are flat and the heat exchanger 1 comprises a single group of tubes 3 grouping together all the tubes 3 of said heat exchanger 1.
- all of the tubes 3 are tangent to the surface fins 4 midway between two neighboring tubes 3 which forms an angle ⁇ greater than or equal to 0.5 °, and less than or equal to 10 ° with the perpendicular to the axis of the tubes 3.
- the diagram of the figure 8 shows three curves 200, 201 and 202 corresponding to the variations of the electrical resistance for three samples of tubes 3 and fins 4 as a function of the angle a.
- the three curves 200, 201 and 203 show that the more the angle ⁇ increases, in particular beyond 0.5 °, the lower the electrical resistance and therefore the thermal resistance.
- an angle ⁇ of 10 ° appears as a saturation limit for the decrease in electrical resistance and therefore in thermal resistance. This means that from this value, an increase in the angle ⁇ would have little effect on the thermal resistance.
- an angle ⁇ between 0.5 and 5 ° is an optimal.
- the tubes 3 of the same group of tubes 3 are arranged parallel to each other with a longitudinal position offset.
- the imaginary line connecting the ends of the tubes 3 forms with a perpendicular to the axis of the tubes (3), that is to say with a parallel to the axis Y of the trihedron XYZ, an angle different from 0 °.
- the line connecting the ends of the tubes 3 of the same rank within the same group of tubes 3, has an angle ⁇ 'greater than 0.5 ° and less than or equal to 10 °, preferably less than or equal to 5 °, with the perpendicular to the axis of the tubes 3.
- This third step 114 can for example be carried out by the fact that the manufacturing device for implementing the manufacturing process comprises alignment shoes. These alignment shoes are intended to press on the ends of the tubes 3 so that the ends of said tubes 3 pass from their offset longitudinal position, illustrated in the figure 10b , at an aligned position where the ends of said tubes 3 are aligned with the perpendicular to the axis of the tubes 3, as illustrated in the figure 10c .
- the manufacturing process may also include, following the third step 114 of alignment under stress, a fourth step 116 of placing water boxes 5 on the ends of the tubes 3 and of placing covers 6 covering the space not occupied by the fins 4 between the fins 4 at the ends of the same group of tubes 3 and said water boxes 5.
- the heat exchanger 1 due to the angle ⁇ between the tangent to the surface of the fins 4 midway between two neighboring tubes 3 and the perpendicular to the axis of the tubes 3 and constraints shear exerted by this angle ⁇ between the tubes 3 and the fins 4, reduces the thermal resistance at the orifices 40 especially when the fins 4 are expanded.

La fixation des tubes 3 avec les ailettes 4 est dite mécanique, par exemple par élargissement desdits tubes 3.

Cependant ce type d'échangeur de chaleur 1 mécanique et notamment la liaison entre les tubes 3 et les ailettes 4, a une résistance thermique élevée ce qui pénalise les échanges de chaleur entre le premier et le second fluide caloporteur. En effet, au niveau de orifices 40, il n'y a pas un contact continue notamment lorsque les ailettes 4 sont chaudes et dilatées. En effet, lorsque les ailettes 4 se dilatent, la taille des orifices 40 augmente ce qui diminue les zones de contact entre les tubes 3 et les ailettes 4.However, this type of

Sur les différentes figures, nous utiliserons un trièdre XYZ afin de montrer l'angle de vue de chacune desdites figures les unes par rapport aux autres. Les axes de ce trièdre peuvent également correspondre aux différentes orientations du véhicule automobile. L'axe X peut ainsi correspondre à l'axe de la longueur du véhicule, l'axe Y à l'axe de sa largeur et l'axe Z à celui de sa hauteur.In the different figures, we will use an XYZ trihedron in order to show the angle of view of each of said figures in relation to each other. The axes of this trihedron can also correspond to the different orientations of the motor vehicle. The X axis can thus correspond to the axis of the length of the vehicle, the Y axis to the axis of its width and the Z axis to that of its height.
Comme le montre la
L'échangeur de chaleur 1 comporte également au moins une superposition d'ailettes 4 dont les ailettes 4 évoluent parallèlement les unes par rapport aux autres, notamment parallèlement au plan défini par les axes Y et Z. Les ailettes 4 sont donc disposées perpendiculairement au plan du ou des rangs de tubes 3. Un second fluide caloporteur 100 est apte à circuler entre les ailettes 4, par exemple de l'air. Les ailettes 4 comportent des orifices 40 par lesquels passent des tubes 3 de sorte à former au moins un groupe de tubes 3 reliés entre eux par une superposition d'ailettes 4.The

L'effet de l'angle α sur la résistance électrique et donc sur la résistance thermique, est lié aux contraintes de cisaillement entre les ailettes 4 et les tubes 3 exercées par l'angle a. Ces contraintes de cisaillement permettent de maintenir un bon contact entre les tubes 3 et les ailettes 4 au niveau des orifices 40 et ce même si les ailettes 4 sont dilatées.The effect of the angle α on the electrical resistance and therefore on the thermal resistance, is linked to the shear stresses between the
La présente invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'un échangeur de chaleur 1 tel que décrit ci-dessus. La
Le procédé de fabrication comporte les étapes suivantes :
- une première étape 110, illustrée à la
figure 10a , de mise enplace de tubes 3 en au moins un groupe detubes 3.
- a
first step 110, illustrated infigure 10a , placingtubes 3 into at least one group oftubes 3.
Lors de cette première étape 110, les tubes 3 d'un même groupe de tubes 3 sont disposés parallèlement les uns aux autres avec un décalage de position longitudinale. La ligne imaginaire reliant les extrémités des tubes 3 forme avec une perpendiculaire à l'axe des tubes (3), c'est-à-dire avec une parallèle à l'axe Y du trièdre XYZ, un angle différent de 0°.During this
En particulier, la ligne reliant les extrémités des tubes 3 d'un même rang au sein d'un même groupe de tubes 3, a un angle α' supérieur à 0,5° et inférieur ou égal à 10°, de préférence inférieur ou égal à 5°, avec la perpendiculaire à l'axe des tubes 3.In particular, the line connecting the ends of the
Lors de cette première étape 110, les tubes 3 ont un diamètre inférieur à celui des orifices 40 des ailettes 4 afin qu'ils puissent s'y insérer.
- une deuxième étape 112, illustrée à la
figure 10b , de fixation destubes 3aux ailettes 4.
- a
second step 112, illustrated infigure 10b , for fixing thetubes 3 to thefins 4.
Cette deuxième étape 112 peut être réalisée par expansion des tubes 3, c'est-à-dire par une augmentation de leur diamètre ce qui vient les fixer dans les orifices 40. Cette expansion des tubes 3, peut être par exemple effectuée par insertion dans les tubes 3 d'une olive d'un diamètre supérieur à celui des tubes 3.
- une troisième étape 114, illustrée à la
figure 10c , d'alignement sous contrainte des extrémités destubes 3 de sorte que les extrémités desditstubes 3 soient alignés avec une perpendiculaire à l'axe destubes 3, c'est-à-dire avec une parallèle à l'axe Y du trièdre XYZ.
- a
third step 114, illustrated infigure 10c , alignment under stress of the ends of thetubes 3 so that the ends of saidtubes 3 are aligned with a perpendicular to the axis of thetubes 3, that is to say with a parallel to the axis Y of the trihedron XYZ .
Lors de cette troisième étape 114, l'angle α' entre la ligne reliant les extrémités des tubes 3 et la perpendiculaire à l'axe des tubes 3, du fait que les ailettes 4 et les tubes 3 sont fixés entre eux, est reporté en l'angle α entre la tangente à la surface des ailettes 4 à mi-distance entre deux tubes 3 voisins et la perpendiculaire à l'axe des tubes 3. La liaison entre les tubes 3 et les ailettes 4 sera alors sous contraintes de cisaillement améliorant les échanges thermiques.During this
Cette troisième étape 114 peut par exemple être réalisée par le fait que le dispositif de fabrication pour la mise en œuvre du procédé de fabrication comporte des sabots d'alignement. Ces sabots d'alignements sont destinés à appuyer sur les extrémités des tubes 3 de sorte que les extrémités desdits tubes 3 passent de leur position longitudinale décalée, illustré à la
La forme de la ligne reliant les extrémités des tubes 3 d'un même rang au sein d'un même groupe de tubes 3 réalisée dans la première étape 110 détermine le profil des ailettes 4 de l'échangeur de chaleur 1. Ainsi, si cette ligne est une droite comme cela est illustré à la
Si cette ligne est une courbe comme cela est illustré à la
Si cette ligne est une sinusoïde comme illustré à la
Le procédé de fabrication peut également comporter, suite à la troisième étape 114 d'alignement sous contrainte, une quatrième étape 116 de mise en place de boites à eau 5 sur les extrémités des tubes 3 et de mise en place de caches 6 recouvrant l'espace non occupé par les ailettes 4 entre les ailettes 4 aux extrémités d'un même groupe de tubes 3 et lesdites boîtes à eau 5.The manufacturing process may also include, following the
Ainsi, on voit bien que l'échangeur de chaleur 1 du fait de l'angle α entre la tangente à la surface des ailettes 4 à mi-distance entre deux tubes 3 voisins et la perpendiculaire à l'axe des tubes 3 et des contraintes de cisaillements exercées par cet angle α entre les tubes 3 et les ailettes 4, permet de diminuer la résistance thermique au niveau des orifices 40 notamment lorsque les ailettes 4 sont dilatées.Thus, it can be seen that the
