본 발명은 마이크로채널 열교환기에 있어서 냉매의 유동 방향에 따라 격벽의 간격을 조절하고 냉매관 군의 단면적을 달리하므로써 냉매 분배를 조절하도록 하는 냉매분지 구조에 관한 것으로서, 일반적으로 열교환기는 실내의 온도를 높이거나 낯추는 냉방기 및 난방기의 공기조화기에 사용된다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a refrigerant branch structure in which a partition of a partition is adjusted according to a flow direction of a refrigerant in a microchannel heat exchanger and a refrigerant distribution is adjusted by varying a cross-sectional area of a refrigerant pipe group. Or air conditioners for air conditioners and radiators.

도 1은 열교환기의 외형을 간략히 나타낸 사시도이고, 도 2는 열교환기의 구성요소의 결합관계를 나타내는 분해도이며, 도 3은 도 2에 있어서 튜브의 단면을 나타내는 도면이다.FIG. 1 is a perspective view briefly illustrating an external shape of a heat exchanger, FIG. 2 is an exploded view showing a coupling relationship between components of a heat exchanger, and FIG. 3 is a view showing a cross section of a tube in FIG.

이들 도면을 참조하면, 종래 열교환기는 하부헤더(1)의 상부에 대응되도록 위치하는 상부헤더(2)와, 상기 상부헤더(2)와 하부헤더(1) 사이에 위치하는 다수개의 튜브(3)와, 상기 각 튜브(3) 사이에 위치하는 핀(6)으로 구성된다. 상기 하부헤더(1)는 원통형으로 형성되어 내부에 중공이 형성되고, 그 외형을 이루는 외주부의 일측부에는 튜브(3)를 삽입하여 고정하도록 다수개의 헤더홀(4)이 하부헤더(1)의 길이방향을 따라 등간격으로 형성되어 있다.Referring to these drawings, a conventional heat exchanger includes an upper header 2 positioned to correspond to an upper portion of a lower header 1, and a plurality of tubes 3 positioned between the upper header 2 and the lower header 1. And a pin 6 positioned between the respective tubes 3. The lower header 1 is formed in a cylindrical shape and a hollow is formed therein, and a plurality of header holes 4 are inserted into and fixed to one side of the outer circumferential part forming the outer shape of the lower header 1. It is formed at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction.

여기서, 상기 하부헤더(1)와 대응되도록 상부에 위치하는 상부헤더(2)는 상기 하부헤더(1)와 동일한 형상을 갖는다. 상기 각 튜브(3)는 각 헤더홀(4)에 튜브 (3)의 길이방향으로 양단부가 고정되어 헤더(1,2)의 길이방향으로 나란하게 배열된다.Here, the upper header (2) located in the upper portion so as to correspond to the lower header (1) has the same shape as the lower header (1). Each tube 3 is fixed to both header holes 4 in the longitudinal direction of the tube 3 and arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction of the headers 1, 2.

한편, 유동공기는 두 헤더(1,2)의 길이방향의 축을 잇는 면을 향해 일정한 경사를 가지도록 유동하여 각 튜브(3)와 두 헤더(1,2) 사이를 통과한다. 상기 튜브(3)는 두 헤더(1,2)에 고정된 양끝단부 사이의 거리인 길이와, 유동공기의 방향에 수직한 거리인 두께를 갖고,유동공기의 흐름방향과 평행한 거리인 폭을 갖는다. 상기 튜브(3)는 두 헤더(1,2)에 수용될 수 있는 정도의 폭과 얇은 두께를 갖는 직사각형 형상의 판형으로서, 내부에는 중공인 다수개의 채널(5)이 형성되어 있다.On the other hand, the flow air flows so as to have a constant inclination toward the plane connecting the longitudinal axes of the two headers 1, 2 and passes between each tube 3 and the two headers (1, 2). The tube 3 has a length that is a distance between both ends fixed to the two headers 1 and 2 and a thickness that is a distance perpendicular to the direction of the flow air, and a width that is a distance parallel to the flow direction of the flow air. Have The tube 3 is a rectangular plate having a width and a thin thickness that can be accommodated in the two headers 1 and 2, and a plurality of hollow channels 5 are formed therein.

또한, 상기 각 튜브(3)의 폭이 유동공기의 흐름방향에 평행하도록 각 튜브(3)가 두 헤더(1,2)에 고정되고, 튜브(3)의 길이방향에 대해 수직하도록 미세한 단면적을 가짐과 함께 튜브(3)의 길이방향으로 길게 형성되는 다수개의 채널(5)은 유동공기의 흐름방향을 따라 순차적으로 배열되도록 형성된다.Further, each tube 3 is fixed to the two headers 1 and 2 so that the width of each tube 3 is parallel to the flow direction of the flow air, and the fine cross-sectional area is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tube 3. In addition, the plurality of channels 5 which are formed long in the longitudinal direction of the tube 3 are formed to be sequentially arranged along the flow direction of the flow air.

이와 같이 형성된 튜브(3)는 두 헤더(1,2)에 양끝단부가 고정되어 헤더(1,2)에 형성된 중공과 연통되어 있고, 상기 각 튜브(3) 사이에는 유동공기가 통과할 수 있는 공간을 형성하도록 각 핀(6)이 설치된다. 즉, 각 핀(6)은 얇은 두께를 가진 판형으로서 여러번 지그재그로 절곡되어 각 튜브(4) 사이에 설치된다. 상기 핀(6)은 여러 가지 형상을 가지며 고정될 수 있지만, 일반적으로 유동공기의 흐름저항이 최소화 되도록 공간을 형성하는 것이 바람직하다.The tube 3 formed as described above is fixed at both ends of the two headers 1 and 2 so as to communicate with a hollow formed in the headers 1 and 2, and flow air can pass between the tubes 3. Each pin 6 is provided to form a space. That is, each pin 6 is a plate-shaped with a thin thickness, bent in a zigzag several times and installed between each tube (4). The fins 6 may have various shapes and may be fixed, but it is generally desirable to form a space to minimize flow resistance of the flow air.

도 4는 종래의 기술에 따른 격벽이 등간격으로 설치되는 것을 나타내는 절개도면이고, 도 5는 종래 기술에 따른 냉매관 군의 단면적을 동일하게 한 것을 나타내는 개략도.Figure 4 is a cutaway view showing that the partition wall according to the prior art is installed at equal intervals, Figure 5 is a schematic view showing the same cross-sectional area of the refrigerant pipe group according to the prior art.

이들 도면에 따르면, 다수개의 튜브(3)들은 다수개의 튜브군(群)으로 구분되어 상기 각각의 튜브군을 기본 단위로 하여 각 튜브군의 전후에는 교번하여 하부 헤더 (1)와 상부 헤더(2)로의 냉매의 흐르는 방향을 변경시키기 위한 격벽이 설치 되는데, 즉, 첫번째 튜브군의 하측방향의 끝지점에 첫번째 격벽이 설치되고, 두번째 튜브군의 상측방향 끝지점에 두번째 격벽이 설치되며, 세번째 튜브군의 하측방향의 끝지점에 세번째 격벽이 설치되고, 네번째 튜브군의 상측방향 끝지점에 네번째 격벽이 설치된다.According to these drawings, the plurality of tubes 3 are divided into a plurality of tube groups, and the lower header 1 and the upper header 2 are alternately arranged before and after each tube group with each tube group as a basic unit. The bulkhead is installed to change the flow direction of the refrigerant to the bottom, that is, the first bulkhead is installed at the lower end of the first tube group, the second bulkhead is installed at the upper end of the second tube group, the third tube The third partition is installed at the lower end of the group, and the fourth partition is installed at the upper end of the fourth tube group.

이와 같은 격벽구조를 갖는 열교환기에 있어서, 처음 하부 헤더(1)로 유입된 냉매는 첫번째 튜브군을 통하여 상승하고, 상승된 냉매는 상부 헤더(2)를 따라서 수평으로 이동하다가, 두번째 격벽에 의하여 간섭되어 두번째 튜브군을 타고 하측 방향으로 하강하게 된다. 이후에도 이와같은 방식으로 튜브군을 타고 상승과 하강을 반복하게 된다. 그리고 이렇게 튜브(3)를 따라 이동하는 과장에서 상기 튜브(3)에 고정된 핀(6)으로 열 전달이 이루어 지고, 최종적으로는 상기 핀(6)의 표면을 통하여 유동공기와 열교환이 이루어지게 된다.In the heat exchanger having such a partition structure, the refrigerant introduced into the lower header 1 first rises through the first tube group, and the elevated refrigerant moves horizontally along the upper header 2 and interferes with the second partition wall. As a result, the second tube group descends downward. After this, the tube group is repeated in the same way ascending and descending. Then, heat is transferred from the exaggerated moving along the tube 3 to the fin 6 fixed to the tube 3, and finally heat exchange with the flow air through the surface of the fin 6 do.

그러나, 기상과 액상이 혼합된 2상 유동에 있어서는 헤더에서 냉매관으로 냉매가 분배될 때, 냉매의 유동 방향(아래 -> 위, 혹은 위 -> 아래)에 따라 그 분배 특성이 달라지게 되므로, 격벽간의 간격이 균등하고 격벽사이에 포함되는 냉매관도냉매의 유동 방향에 무관하게 동일한 단면적으로 형성되는 구조를 갖는 종래의 열교환기에 있어서는, 기액이 균일하게 분지되지 못하므로 증발기의 효율이 저하되는 문제점이 있다.However, in the two-phase flow in which the gas phase and the liquid phase are mixed, when the refrigerant is distributed from the header to the refrigerant pipe, the distribution characteristic thereof varies depending on the flow direction of the refrigerant (down-> up, or up-> down), In a conventional heat exchanger having a structure in which the spacing between the partition walls is equal and the refrigerant pipe included in the partition walls is formed in the same cross-sectional area irrespective of the flow direction of the refrigerant, the gas liquid is not uniformly branched. have.

본 발명은 이러한 문제점을 감안하여 창출된 것으로서,The present invention has been created in view of these problems,

냉매의 유동 방향에 따라 격벽의 간격을 조절하고 냉매관 군의 단면적을 달리하므로써 상기 헤더내에 흐르는 냉매가 고르게 분배되도록 하므로써, 열교환기의 효율을 획기적으로 증대시키는데 그 목적이 있다.The purpose of this invention is to drastically increase the efficiency of the heat exchanger by adjusting the spacing of the partition walls according to the flow direction of the coolant and by varying the cross-sectional area of the coolant pipe group so that the coolant flowing in the header is evenly distributed.

도 6a를 참조하면, 본 발명에 따른 열교환기가 증발기에 적용된 것으로서, 하부 헤더를 통하여 유입된 냉매는 첫번째 냉매관 군(A)을 통하여 분지되어 상승하게 되고 상부 헤더에 다다른 냉매는 두번째 냉매관 군(B)을 통하여 다시 하강하게 되고, 이와 같은 방식으로 상기의 냉매는 상승과 하강을 반복하게 된다. 이때 상기의 첫번째 냉매관 군(A)의 단면적은 두번째 냉매관 군(B)의 단면적에 비하여 넓고, 세번째 냉매관 군(C)의 단면적은 두번째 냉매관 군(B)의 단면적에 비하여 넓다. 이와 같이 냉매의 흐름 방향에 따라 그 냉매관 군의 단면적을 달리하되, 냉매가 상승하는 냉매관 군의 단면적을 냉매가 하강하는 냉매관 군의 단면적에 비하여 넓게 하므로써 냉매가 열교환기에서 균일하게 흐르게 된다.Referring to Figure 6a, the heat exchanger according to the present invention is applied to the evaporator, the refrigerant introduced through the lower header is branched through the first refrigerant pipe group (A) to rise and the refrigerant reaching the upper header is the second refrigerant pipe group It is lowered again through (B), and in this way, the refrigerant is repeatedly raised and lowered.

At this time, the cross-sectional area of the first refrigerant pipe group (C) is wider than that of the second refrigerant pipe group (B), and the cross-sectional area of the third refrigerant pipe group (A) is larger than the cross-sectional area of the second refrigerant pipe group (B). In this way, the cross-sectional area of the coolant tube group varies depending on the flow direction of the coolant, but the cross-sectional area of the coolant tube group in which the coolant descends is wider than the cross-sectional area of the coolant tube group in which the coolant rises, so that the coolant flows uniformly in the heat exchanger. .

여기서, 냉매가 상승하는 냉매관 군과 냉매가 하강하는 냉매관 군의 단면적비는, 10 ~ 60%가 되도록 하는 것이 바람직하다.Here, it is preferable that the cross-sectional area ratio of the coolant tube group in which the coolant rises and the coolant tube group in which the coolant falls is 10 to 60%.
