Furthermore, in addition to the evaporator 25, the aquarium cooling device 21 placed next to the aquarium is directly visible or visible through the water in the aquarium, detracting from the overall appearance of the aquarium. Furthermore, it is desirable to be able to view the aquarium from a 360-degree direction, but in the conventional case, the aquarium cooling device 21 is placed next to the aquarium, which obstructs the view of the aquarium from above. become. Further, a space is required to place the aquarium cooling device 21 around the aquarium.
さらに、エバポレータ２５は、水槽の一側面に沈められ
ているだけであり、水槽の水は、この部分で自然に対流
しているのみで、熱交換の効率が悪い。Furthermore, the evaporator 25 is only submerged in one side of the water tank, and the water in the tank only naturally convects in this part, resulting in poor heat exchange efficiency.
