  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION
  • The present invention is explained further below in conjunction with the drawings and particular embodiments.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1 to 7, a heat exchanger 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a plurality of heat exchange tubes 1 arranged in a first direction D1 and extending in a second direction D2 perpendicular to the first direction D1; and a plurality of fins 2 arranged between two adjacent heat exchange tubes 1 and in contact with each other, the fin 2 comprising a curved-surface portion 20. The heat exchanger 100 further comprises headers 3; the heat exchange tubes 1 are connected between the two headers 3, and are in fluid communication with the two headers 3. The heat exchange tubes 1 may be flat tubes. The fins 2 extend in the second direction D2, and are parallel to the heat exchange tubes 1. The fins 2 have a plate-like shape. The entire fin 2 may be the curved-surface portion 20. The heat exchanger in an embodiment of the present invention can, for example, increase the heat exchange area, and can also increase the turbulence of the fluid (for example, wind) by disturbing flow, so as to enhance heat exchange.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1 to 7, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the second direction D2 and a third direction D3 perpendicular to the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 define a reference plane, and in at least one of two mutually perpendicular cross sections perpendicular to the reference plane, the curved-surface portion 20 has a curved-line shape. The curved-surface portion 20 may be formed by a plurality of planar portions, for example, by a plurality of small planar portions.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 has a smaller curvature at one side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100 than at the other side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100; and/or the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 has a smaller curvature at one side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100 than at the other side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100. According to an example of the present invention, the curvature of the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 gradually increases from one side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100 to the other side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100; and/or the curvature of the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 gradually increases from one side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100 to the other side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100. For example, the curvature of the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 is zero at said one side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100; and/or the curvature of the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 is zero at said one side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention, adjacent fins 2 between two adjacent heat exchange tubes 1 are not connected to each other or are spaced apart at one side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100; and/or adjacent fins 2 between two adjacent heat exchange tubes 1 are not connected to each other or are spaced apart at one side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a curved surface parameter of the fin 2 varies on a single fin 2, or varies among multiple fins 2; referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, at one side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100, such as the windward side, the curvature of the fin 2 is small, and can be as small as 0, i.e. planar. From the windward side to the leeward side (the other side in the third direction D3 of the heat exchanger 100), the curvature increases. In this way, the windward side is not easily blocked by frost, so the defrost cycle is increased while facilitating water drainage. The windward sides of adjacent fins 2 may not be connected together, i.e. they may be spaced apart. When the heat exchange tubes 100 are placed approximately vertically (when the heat exchanger 100 is placed as shown in FIG. 1), the curvature at the bottom (one side in the second direction D2 of the heat exchanger 100) is small, and can be as small as 0, i.e. planar. This facilitates water drainage at the bottom. The bottoms of adjacent fins may not be connected to each other, that is, they may be spaced apart.
  • Referring to FIGS. 2 to 5, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 has a corrugated shape and comprises alternately arranged strip-shaped ridges 21 and troughs 22. A ridge 21 when viewed from one side in the first direction D1 of the fin 2 is a trough 22 when viewed from the other side in the first direction D1 of the fin 2.
  • Referring to FIG. 3, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the fin 2 is provided with an opening 25, which may be an opening formed by removing material, an opening with a flange, or a window-like opening, etc. By breaking the boundary layer when fluid is flowing, the thickness of the boundary layer is reduced, and the effect of improving heat exchange is achieved.
  • Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, according to an embodiment of the present invention, mutually contacting ridges 21 of the curved-surface portions 20 of two adjacent fins 2 cross over each other. For example, when viewed in the first direction D1, the mutually contacting ridges 21 of the curved-surface portions 20 of two adjacent fins 2 are arranged symmetrically with respect to a plane defined by the first direction D1 and the second direction D2. When viewed in the first direction D1, the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 may have an I-shape, a V-shape, a W-shape, a C-shape or an L-shape, etc.
  • Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the fins 2 may be connected to each other by means of protruding parts on the fins 2. For example, the fin 2 has a corrugated pattern comprising the ridges 21 and troughs 22. Adjacent fins 2 are connected, and the ridges 21 (or troughs 22) of two adjacent fins 2 cross over each other to form channels between the adjacent fins 2, so that wind can pass through the channels and exchange heat with the fins. When the heat exchanger 100 is placed as shown in FIG. 1, condensed water can be discharged from the bottom of the fins 2 along the channels. The curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 has a corrugated shape, wherein the waves are periodic. The ridge 21 and the trough 22 may both extend in one direction, or each ridge 21 and trough 22 is composed of a plurality of linear parts. The wave dimensions (period size, wave height, angle, etc.) on each wave can be different. On a single fin 20, the wave dimensions of two adjacent fins 20 may also be different. Relative to the third direction, mutually contacting ridges 21 (or troughs 22) of two adjacent fins 2 are symmetrically arranged.
  • Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the curved-surface portion 20 of the fin 2 has a bumpy shape and comprises multiple rows of discrete protrusions 23 and multiple rows of discrete depressions 24. Protrusions 23 of the curved-surface portions 20 of two adjacent fins 2 are in contact with each other. The protrusions 23 may comprise at least one of a drop-shaped protrusion, a crescent-shaped protrusion and a round protrusion. A protrusion 23 when viewed from one side in the first direction D1 of the fin 2 is a depression 24 when viewed from the other side in the first direction D1 of the fin 2. There can be a smooth transition between the tops of adjacent protrusions 23 and depressions 24; that is to say, transitional surfaces connecting the tops of the protrusions 23 and the tops of the depressions 24 can be smooth curved surfaces.
  • Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the protrusions 23 of the curved-surface portions 20 that are in contact with each other are arranged to be staggered or arranged in parallel. The protrusions 23 may be streamlined; for example, the protrusions 23 at the windward side are larger than the protrusions 23 at the leeward side. The dimensions of the protrusions 23 vary on a single fin 2, e.g. the height, size, density, etc. of the protrusions. The dimensions of the protrusions 23 on the plurality of fins 2 may also vary.
  • The fin 2 can also be provided with another connecting member to connect the adjacent fin 2 or the heat exchange tube 1. In addition, a protruding curved-surface connecting member can be further formed on the fin 2. At least one side surface of at least a portion of the fins is provided with a connecting member for connecting the adjacent fin 2 or the heat exchange tube 1. The connecting member can be a protrusion further punched out on the fin 2, or a flange (L-shaped flange, O-shaped flange, etc.), a bridging piece, etc., or a combination thereof. The flange of the opening in FIG. 3 can also act as a connecting member.
  • While the present disclosure has been illustrated and described with respect to a particular embodiment thereof, it should be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that various modifications to this disclosure may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.
