Filed Dec 10, 1956 AT TORNEV United States Patent HEAT EXCHAN GER CORE Arnold E. Jensen and Stanley W. Peterson, Racine, Wis., assignors to Modine Manufacturing Company, Racine, Wis., a corporation of Wisconsin Application December 10, 1956, Serial No. 627,244
3 Claims. (Cl. 257255) This invention relates to heat exchanger cores. With the advent of air-conditioning of automobiles,
the provision of an efiicient heat exchanger has become While the heat exchanger of the pres more important. ent invention has been developed particularly for use in automobiles, and especially in automobile air conditioning equipment, of course it has application in other fields where. heat exchangers are required. In these uses of a heat exchanger, it is normal tohave within the exchanger tubes fluid pressures which distort the tube, and, consequently, detrimentally change the over-all dimensions of the exchanger. This invention is concerned with tube distortion.
It is a general object of this invention to provide an improved heat exchanger core and accomplishing this object with a minimum of expense and time.
A specific object of this invention is to provide a heat exchanger core which is most eflicient and yet does not distort when subjected to normal operating pressures of the fluid within the exchanger tubes. This object is accomplished by means of a tube having a rectangular crosssection and by means of having the fins adjacent the tube support the latter.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent upon reading the following description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
, Fig. 1 is a side view of a preferred embodiment of this invention, showing a (fragment of a heat exchanger core.
Fig. 2 is an end view of a fragment of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1, with the arrows indicating the internal fluid pressure Within the tube.
Fig. 4 is a view similar to a part of Fig. 3 but showing the effect of the internal fluid pressure on a tube which does not have a rectangular cross-section, with the dotted lines showing the final shape of the tube after it has been subjected to the internal fluid pressure.
The same reference numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The drawings show a fragment of a heat exchanger core for use in the applications mentioned, and, it will be understood by those skilled in the art of making heat exchangers that the unshown parts of the heat exchanger will be like the fragment shown and the remainder of the exchanger, including the headers, can be of any conventional design. A tube is formed in the usual serpentine shape to be disposed in lengths 11, 12, and 13 and curved ends 14. Of course fluid, such as Freon used in air conditioners, is introduced into one end of the tube 10 to flow through the lengths such as 11, 12, 13, and the ends 14, and out the other tube end, all in a very well-known manner. Interposed between every two of the tube lengths, such as the lengths 11 and 12, are two rows or layers of serpentine fins 16 and 17 which perform the usual function of allowing air or other fluid to pass therethrough in a direction transverse to the tube lengths 11, 12, and 13 and change the temperature of the fins 16 and 17. The provision of a core with double layers of fins is not new in 2,883,165 Patented Apr. 21, 1959 and by itself. It is known in the art that certain types of cores preferably consist of double layers of fins which are provided for well-known reasons of core design. The present invention is concerned with an improvement on that known design which will be described later.
Fig. 3 particularly shows that the tube 10 is of a rectangular cross-sectional shape and this is an important feature of this invention. It should also be seen that the \crests 18 of the adjacent fins 16 and 17 are in contact with the full width of the tube 10 since the latter is rectangular and therefore presents straight and parallel sides 19. Also, the shorter opposite sides 21 are transverse to the sides 19 and the crests 18 of the fins. The arrows, of course, indicate the internal fluid pressure in thetube 10 in normal conditions of use, and it will be understood that the total force exerted by the fluid on the tube sides 1 resist the vertical forces tending to expand the tube.
19 will be greater than the total force exerted by the fluid on the sides 21. Thus, the tube has a tendency to expand by increasing its height as viewed in Fig. 2. Because the tube is rectangular, and because the fins 16 and 17 provide support in the vertical directions, the tube will not expand or distort under normal operating pressures. Before the tube 10 will be distorted permanently, the sides 21 must be stressed beyond their yield point since the full tensile strength of the sides 21 is available to As shown, the sides 19 are substantially three times as long as the sides 21, and, of course, the dimensions provide the required cross-sectional flow area. Since the sides are so proportioned, the sides 21 are not too long for strain elongation which is, therefore, held to a minimum.
To further illustrate this feature of the invention, Fig. 4 shows in solid lines a tube 22 having straight parallel sides 23 and opposite curved sides 24. The tube can be considered as possessing a cross-sectional flow area equal to that of the tube 10. Here also, the internal fluid pressure Jcreates total forces on the sides 23 in excess of the total forces on the sides 24. There would be the usual fins, such as the fins 16 and 17, in flat contact with the sides 23, just as in the other figures, and the beam strength of the fins would prevent distortion of the sides 23. However, the fluid pressures are normally great enough to distort the tube which thus changes to the shape shown by the dotted lines in Fig. 4. In this design of rounded or arcuate sides 24, the total forces on the sides 24 are not great enough to keep the sides arcuately shaped, so they are deformed under the influence of the greater forces on the sides 23. Since numerous tiers of the tube 22 would exist in a complete heat exchanger core, the summation of these vertical distortions would result in an overall dimensional increase which is prohibitive.
Referring again to the provision of the fins 16 and 17, it will be seen in the drawings that a partition or center spacer 26 is disposed between the tiers of fins 16 and 17. The partition 26 is of a light gage metal (eight thousandths of an inch has been found to be satisfactory), and it serves several important features in this invention. One feature is that [the fins 16 and 17 assume and retain their proper positions in abutment with their adjacent tube lengths, and the fins will not nest into each others folds. However, since the spacer 26 is of a light gage, the fins can actually indent the spacer to properly align in abutting contact with the tube lengths, as shown at 25. Another feature of the spacer is the fact that the ends thereof can be split into two sections 27 and 28 to each abut the end of a respective fin 16 and 17, at each end of the fins, and thereby determine and maintain the overall length of the fins 16 and 17. Of course, since the fins are accordion pleated, they (tend to be extremely variable in both their lengths and their position along the length in the direction transverse to the plane of the paper in 3 Fig. 1 which direction is in the plane of the spacer 26 and "motion of the fins in this direction would bein the nature of accordion action. The spacers thus determine the fin length and can have the split ends 27 and 28 which-may be nested in the end fold of the fins.
'Ilo control the fins transverse to their lengths, the
spacer is again utilized by being fastened to the fins by means such as the clips 29 shown in Figs. 1 and 3, indicated to be spaced in several positions along the length of the fins. The clips preferably are of hair-pin shape and preferably have an enlarged portion 31, to facilitate handling and directing the clip to its position, and the clip preferably has an outwardly turned end 32 to facilirate directing the legs of the clip to opposite sides of the spacer and fins. With the spacer fastened to the fins, the greatest strength of the spacer, namely its strength in its own plane, is available to support the'fins against deflection in the plane of the spacer. The sub-assembly of the two fins l6 and 17 and the spacer 26 thus becomes a relatively rigid body which can be handled for positioning between the lengths 11 and 12 of the tube 10, and thus the flexibility :of the fins is removed so that the assembly can be accomplished through mass production standards.
Of course, the final assembly of the core, as shown in Fig. 1, is then bonded together so that the contacts between fin and thetube, and the fin and the spacer are all permanent. Thus, one rigid core is made by means of a conventional final bonding process. Because the clips 29 are small, they can be left in place after the bonding process.
While a specific embodiment of this invention has been shown and described, it should be obvious that certain changes could be made and, therefore, the scope of this invention should be limited only by the appended claims.
