Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a plate type heat exchanger for a refrigerating and air-conditioning system evaporator, and more particularly, to a plate type heat exchanger used in an evaporator or the like, so that refrigerant flowing into a refrigerant inlet port is uniformly distributed to each refrigerant flow channel formed in a heat exchanger And a vaporization phenomenon of a part of the refrigerant due to flushing of the refrigerant which is thermally expanded at the expansion side is reduced, thereby improving the performance of the evaporator, and a plate heat exchanger having the same.
In general, when a plate heat exchanger is used as an evaporator in a vapor compression type refrigeration and air conditioning system, the amount of refrigerant flowing into the heat exchanger and the number of channels through which the refrigerant flows are distributed, It may not be distributed.
Particularly, when the number of channels through which the refrigerant flows and the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing therethrough is relatively small, the flow rate of the refrigerant supplied to each channel is increased in the channels disposed close to the refrigerant inlet portion of the heat exchanger, And the like.
In this case, when a large amount of refrigerant flows through the channel at the front end and a relatively small amount of refrigerant flows through the channel at the rear end, the heat exchanging area of the heat exchanger is not fully utilized, so that the evaporator capacity is decreased as a whole, .
In addition, flashing, which is a phenomenon in which a part of the liquid refrigerant vaporizes momentarily, is generated in the refrigerant that has been thermally expanded at the expansion side. Accordingly, when the piping length between the evaporator and the evaporator is short at the expansion side, the refrigerant can not recover the pressure, And the refrigerant flows into the evaporator, causing a loss of the liquid refrigerant amount, so that the performance of the evaporator may be deteriorated.
As a refrigerant distributing device installed in a conventional heat exchanger, there are a pipe type refrigerant distributing device, a cone type refrigerant distributing device, a ring type refrigerant distributing device, and a hot plate forming distributing device.
Here, in the case of the pipe-type refrigerant distributor, the refrigerant distribution pipe is inserted into the refrigerant distribution header of the plate-type heat exchanger, and one side of the inserted refrigerant distribution pipe is machined with a micro- The refrigerant flowing into the refrigerant distribution pipe is filled into the inside of the pipe and then flows into the refrigerant flow channel through the fine holes formed in the refrigerant distribution pipe evenly at a certain pressure after the refrigerant flowing into the refrigerant distribution pipe is filled into the inside of the pipe. So that the refrigerant can be evenly distributed to each channel.
In the case of the cone type refrigerant distribution device, a porous structure in the form of a sintered cone having a plurality of fine holes is mounted in the refrigerant distribution header of the heat exchanger, and the refrigerant introduced into the porous structure is uniformly distributed in the porous structure, So that the refrigerant can flow out evenly through each of the channels through the plurality of microholes.
Further, in the case of the ring-type refrigerant distributor, it is also possible to provide a distribution ring in which fine holes are formed in the refrigerant inflow portions of the respective channels of the heat exchanger so that the inflow refrigerant flows uniformly through the fine holes formed in the distribution ring, . ≪ / RTI >
Further, in the case of the hot plate forming and distributing apparatus, a semicircular fine hole corresponding to the fine hole shape of the ring-shaped refrigerant distributor is formed in the heat plate (heat transfer plate) itself, and a semicircular fine hole corresponding thereto is formed on the adjacent heat plate Shaped fine holes formed on both side heat plates in the stacking direction are brought into contact with each other to form circular fine holes so that the refrigerant can be evenly distributed from the predetermined pressure to the respective channels through the fine holes.
However, the conventional refrigerant distribution devices mounted in the heat exchanger in various forms as described above have the same advantage that the refrigerant can be uniformly distributed to the respective refrigerant flow channels of the heat exchanger. However, in the refrigerant distribution header of the heat exchanger, It is necessary to install a long pipe for distributing the refrigerant or to install a plurality of distribution rings per each channel, such that the installation volume of the refrigerant distribution device becomes large and the number of the installation is large, so that the assembling property of the heat exchanger is deteriorated, There is a problem that it increases.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a heat exchanger in which refrigerant can be easily mounted on a refrigerant inflow port of a heat exchanger, A refrigerant distribution plate for preventing liquid refrigerant loss due to flushing generated at the expansion side when the pipe length between the expansion side and the evaporator is small, and a plate for the refrigeration and air conditioning system evaporator to which the refrigerant distribution plate is applied And to provide a heat exchanger.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a refrigerant distribution plate for a vaporizer in the form of a plate heat exchanger, the plate having a plate shape and being mounted in a refrigerant inlet port of the heat exchanger, And a plurality of refrigerant distribution holes are formed to uniformly distribute the refrigerant to each refrigerant flow channel of the refrigerant flow channel and to reduce the vaporization phenomenon of the refrigerant due to the thermal expansion of the refrigerant.
The refrigerant distribution plate has a shape corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the refrigerant inlet port and can be fixedly installed inside the refrigerant inlet port.
Further, the refrigerant distribution holes may be formed to have different diameters.
At this time, the diameter of the refrigerant distribution hole can be obtained by repeated calculation so that the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant inflow port has a refrigerant outflow rate and a refrigerant outflow rate that can be evenly distributed to each refrigerant flow channel in the heat exchanger.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a heat exchanger for a refrigeration and air conditioning system, including a refrigerant inlet port and a refrigerant outlet port through which refrigerant flows in and out, and a plurality of refrigerant A refrigerant circuit for a refrigerant and air conditioning system in which a flow channel is formed, the refrigerant inlet port having a plate shape, the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant inlet port is uniformly distributed to each refrigerant flow channel in the heat exchanger, A refrigerant distribution plate having a plurality of refrigerant distribution holes capable of suppressing vaporization of a refrigerant due to thermal expansion is provided.
Here, the refrigerant distribution plate may be installed so as to be disposed in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the refrigerant inflow port.
The refrigerant inlet port may have a fixing protrusion protruding at a predetermined distance from the central portion so that the refrigerant distribution plate may be fixed.
According to the present invention having the above-described configuration, the refrigerant distribution plate having a predetermined thickness can be easily mounted on the refrigerant inflow port portion of the heat exchanger into which the refrigerant flows, and the refrigerant distribution plate It is possible not only to uniformly distribute the refrigerant to each refrigerant flow channel but also to reduce the refrigerant flushing at the rear end of the expansion valve, so that the performance of the evaporator can be improved.
In addition, the refrigerant distributing means for distributing the refrigerant to each refrigerant flow channel in the evaporator of the plate-type heat exchanger is not a bulky, expensive and numbered type, The manufacturing cost of the evaporator can be greatly reduced, the assembling property can be improved, and the internal structure of the evaporator can be realized in a simpler form.
