Description

本発明は、複数の流体を熱交換させる熱交換器に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a heat exchanger that exchanges heat between a plurality of fluids.

従来より、2つの流体同士で熱交換を可能にした熱交換器が知られている。例えば、特許文献1、2に記載の熱交換器では、トランスミッションオイルと冷却水とを熱交換器に導入し熱交換することが記載されている。しかしながら、電動車に搭載される駆動用バッテリは、低温環境下での加温と高温環境下や発熱時の冷却が必要であるため、バッテリの加温と冷却を1つの冷媒で行う場合には、当該冷媒を加温するための熱交換器と冷却するための熱交換器が必要となる。そこで、特許文献3では、3つの流体を導入して熱交換を可能にした熱交換器が提案されている。 Conventionally, heat exchangers that enable heat exchange between two fluids have been known. For example, in the heat exchangers described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, it is described that transmission oil and cooling water are introduced into the heat exchanger and heat exchanged. However, the drive batteries installed in electric vehicles need to be heated in low-temperature environments and cooled in high-temperature environments or when they generate heat. , a heat exchanger for heating the refrigerant and a heat exchanger for cooling the refrigerant are required. Therefore, Patent Document 3 proposes a heat exchanger that enables heat exchange by introducing three fluids.

According to this configuration, the channel layers of the plurality of second channel layers 25 and the channel layers of the plurality of third channel layers 35 are not adjacent to each other, so that the heating fluid W3 is cooled by the air conditioning fluid W2. It is possible to prevent the air conditioning fluid W2 from being heated by the heating fluid W3.
