Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif à cycle de réfrigération (100) comprenant : un échangeur de chaleur (50) qui comprend une pluralité d'ailettes (2) de transfert de chaleur et une pluralité de tubes (1) de transfert de chaleur ; et une unité de réglage d'écoulement de fluide frigorigène (5) qui règle la direction d'écoulement d'un fluide frigorigène. L'échangeur de chaleur (50) est divisé en une première section (3) d'échangeur de chaleur et une seconde section (4) d'échangeur de chaleur. L'unité de réglage de débit de fluide frigorigène (5) règle l'écoulement de fluide frigorigène de telle sorte qu'une direction d'écoulement d'air (8) et des directions d'écoulement de fluide frigorigène (9, 10) soient opposées dans la première section d'échangeur de chaleur (3), dans les deux cas où l'échangeur de chaleur (50) fonctionne en tant qu'évaporateur et en tant que condenseur.
