Definitions
- the present invention relates to a heat exchanger, and more particularly to heat exchanger tubes of the mechanical type.
- a heat exchanger generally comprises tubes, in which a heat transfer fluid is intended to circulate, and heat exchange elements connected to these tubes.
- Brazed and mechanical type heat exchangers are usually distinguished by their manufacturing process.
- the heat exchange elements In a mechanical type heat exchanger, the heat exchange elements, referred to in this case as "fins", are connected to the tubes in the following manner. First, the holes are formed in the fins passage tubes. These passage holes are generally delimited each by a fallen edge forming a neck. Then, the fins are arranged substantially parallel to each other and each tube is threaded into a series of aligned holes of the fins. Finally, it causes a radial expansion of the tubes by passing an expansion tool inside these tubes so as to mechanically bind the tubes and fins by crimping, the necks defining the passage holes of the tubes then forming tight collars around the tubes.
- Such exchangers are traversed by an air flow, the fins extending through the flow.
- baffles formed by rows of louvers are usually provided on the fins, the rows being inserted between the tubes of the same row of tubes.
- each louver comprises a blade provided with a free edge and a connecting edge connecting the louver to the fin.
- the louvers are arranged in two groups of successive louvers in the row.
- the free edge of the blades form upstream edge relative to the air flow, the connecting edge forming downstream edge.
- the connecting edge of the louvre blades form upstream edge relative to the air flow, the free edge forming the downstream edge.
- the aim of the invention is to improve the performance of the heat exchanger by choosing a configuration of louvers which makes it possible to limit the appearance of these heat exchangers. inefficient areas.
- the subject of the invention is a heat exchanger comprising:
- the tubes being connected to the fin by clamping the tubes in a collar formed in the fin;
- each shutter comprising a blade provided with a free edge and a connecting edge connecting the shutter to the fin
- the connecting edge of the blade of at least the first louver of the row forms upstream edge relative to the air flow, the free edge of the blade forming the downstream edge.
- the exchanger comprises only one row of tubes and the connecting edges of all the blades of the row form upstream edge with respect to the air flow, the free edge of the blades forming the downstream edge.
- the free edge of at least the blade of the row forms an upstream edge with respect to the air flow, the connecting edge of this blade forming a downstream edge.
- the row of louvers comprises two groups of louvers, the louvers of the second group succeeding the louvers of the first group in the row of louvers, the connecting edge of the blades of the first group forming an upstream edge relative to the air flow, the free edge of the blades of the first group forming the downstream edge, and the free edge of the blades of the second group forming an upstream edge with respect to the air flow, the connecting edge of the blades of the second group forming downstream edge.
- the two groups of louvers comprise the same number of louvers.
- the free edge of the blade of the last louver of the first group is connected to the free edge of the blade of the first louver of the second group by a connecting junction board substantially parallel to the surface of the fin.
- the dimension of the junction blade between the free edge of the blade of the last louver of the first group and the free edge of the blade of the first louver of the second group is less than 3. mm.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a fin of a heat exchanger according to a first embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a fin of a heat exchanger according to a second embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a heat exchanger according to the invention.
- FIG. 3 There is shown in Figure 3 a heat exchanger 1 of mechanical type for equipping a motor vehicle.
- the heat exchanger comprises a row of tubes 2 (shown truncated for the sake of clarity in FIGS. 1 and 2), in which a conventional heat transfer fluid is intended to circulate, and fins 4 (only one of which has been shown for reasons of clarity) related to these tubes 2.
- the tubes 2 are connected to the fins 4 by clamping the tubes in collars 6 formed in the fins 4.
- the fins 4 are provided with holes 8 for passage of the tubes. These passage holes 8 have a generally oblong shape.
- the tubes 2 each have a generally elongate shape and have a substantially oblong section.
- the tubes 2 are arranged substantially parallel to each other, so as to form a single row.
- the fins 4 have a generally rectangular shape, substantially flat, and are arranged in the heat exchanger 1 substantially parallel to each other and perpendicular to the longitudinal directions of the tubes 2.
- the fins 4 are intended to extend through an upstream flow of upstream air itself through the exchanger.
- Arrows F represent the flow direction of flow.
- the exchanger 1 also comprises rows of louvers 12, formed in each fin 4 and each interposed between two tubes 2.
- Each louver 12 comprises a blade 14 comprising a free edge 16 and a connecting edge 18 connecting the louver 12 to the fin 4.
- the connecting edge 18 of the blade 14 of at least the first louver 12 of the row 10 form an upstream edge with respect to the flow F, the free edge 16 of the blade 14 forming a downstream edge.
- the connecting edges 18 of all the blades 14 of the row 10 form upstream edge with respect to the air flow F, the free edge 16 of the blades 14 forming a downstream edge.
- the free edge 16 of at least the last blade 14 of the row 10 forms upstream edge with respect to the air flow F, its connecting edge 18 forming downstream edge.
- the row 10 comprises two groups of louvers 12 preferably comprising the same number of louvers 12, the louvers 12 of the second group succeeding the louvers of the first group in the row 10 of louvers.
- the row 10 is formed of fourteen louvers 12 divided into two groups of seven louvers 12, arranged on either side of a junction blade 20 connecting the free edge 16 of the last blade 14 of the first group at the free edge 16 of the first blade 14 of the second group.
- each blade 14 forms an upstream edge with respect to the air flow F and the free edge 16 forms a downstream edge.
- each blade 14 forms an upstream edge with respect to the air flow F, and the connecting edge 18 forms a downstream edge.
- the joining blade 20 forms a bridge substantially parallel to the surface of the fin 4 between the two groups of the row 10.
- substantially parallel means that the bridge is located in a plane offset from the surface of the fin.
- the dimension of the joining blade 22 between the free edge 16 of the blade 14 of the last louver 12 of the first group and the free edge 16 of the blade 14 of the first louver 12 of the second group is less than 3 mm .
