相关申请的交叉引用
本公开是以申请号为202211246064.0，申请日为2022年10月12日，发明名称为“罐式换热器和空调系统”的中国专利申请为基础，并主张其优先权，该中国专利申请的公开内容在此作为整体引入本公开中。
技术领域
本公开涉及空调技术领域，特别涉及一种罐式换热器和空调系统。
背景技术
降膜蒸发器作为一种新型高效节能设备，以其冷媒充注量小、静液压差小、换热效率高以及回油方便等优点被广泛运用于水冷机组。然而，其由于结构的限制在小于100RT的机组上表现并不理想。所以，一般在这些机组上只能使用能效较低的干式蒸发器或套管换热器。
相关技术中，一些降膜蒸发器设有均液装置，用以接收上方流来的液体冷媒，并使其均分然后流至下方降膜区的盘管。然而，进入蒸发器的冷媒可能并不是纯液态的，液态冷媒中往往会带有一定量的气态冷媒。液态冷媒在经过均液盘上方换热盘管进行蒸发换热后，又产生了一部分气态冷媒。气态冷媒密度远低于液态冷媒，这使得通过均液盘上孔或缝的平均流速大大增加，不但增大了换热器内氟侧压降，还容易让液态冷媒溅射和偏流，不利于液态冷媒在均液装置下方的换热盘管布液和降膜蒸发。

如图1至图7所示，本公开的一些实施例提供一种罐式换热器，罐式换热器设置有工质入口和工质出口，罐式换热器包括外筒1、内筒2、第一换热管31、均液盘4和遮挡部5。
内筒2连通于外筒1，外筒1与内筒2轴线平行地设置且内筒2之间形成环状空间。
第一换热管31盘绕于外筒1内。
均液盘4，相对于外筒1和内筒2固定地设置于环状空间且位于第一换热管31的靠近罐式换热器的轴向第一端的一侧，均液盘4的径向外端与外筒1的筒壁形成气体通道G，和/或，均液盘4的径向内端与内筒2的筒壁形成气体通道G。
遮挡部5，相对于外筒1和内筒2固定地设置于环状空间且与均液盘4形成轴向间隔，遮挡部5包括与气体通道G对应的遮挡主体，遮挡主体位于均液盘4的朝向罐式换热器的轴向第一端的一侧，且沿罐式换热器的径向，遮挡主体完全覆盖对应的气体通道G，遮挡主体的径向内端和径向外端之一为连接端，另一为自由端，所述连接端与内筒2的筒壁和外筒1的筒壁之一密封连接，所述自由端与内筒2的筒壁和外筒1的筒壁另一形成间隔。
在本公开的以下描述中，可以理解，在罐式换热器的使用状态，外筒1的轴向为上下方向，外筒1的轴向第一端为顶端，轴向第二端为底端。
本公开的罐式换热器可以是降膜式换热器、满液式换热器或者其它形式的换热器，并且可以用作蒸发器或者冷凝器。该罐式换热器可以用于空调系统，但并不限于空调系统。该罐式换热器用于空调系统中时，工质可以是冷媒。
外筒1和内筒2沿罐式换热器的轴向的尺寸可以相同也可以不同，例如，图1和图2所示的实施例中，外筒1的轴向两端封闭，内筒2沿罐式换热器的轴向的尺寸可以小于外筒1沿罐式换热器的轴向的尺寸，内筒2的轴向第一端连接于外筒1的轴向第一端，内筒2的轴向第二端与外筒1连通。在一些未图示的实施例中，外筒1和内筒2沿罐式换热器的轴向的尺寸也可以是相同的，内筒2的轴向两端均连接于外筒1，内筒2和外筒1可通过内筒2上的开口或管道等结构连通。
工质入口和工质出口可以根据换热器的选型需求设置于罐式换热器的不同位置，例如外筒1或内筒2的轴向第一端和轴向第二端。在一些实施例中，该罐式换热器用作蒸发器时，工质入口可以连通于外筒1的轴向第一端，并用于导入液态工质，工质出口可以连通于内筒2，并用于导出气态工质；在另一些实施例中，该罐式换热器用作冷凝器时，工质入口可以连通于内筒2，并用于导入气态工质，工质出口可以连通于外筒1的轴向第二端，并用于导出液态工质。
并且，同一个工质口可在该罐式换热器用作蒸发器时作为工质入口，在该罐式换热器用作冷凝器时作为工质出口，反之亦然。
均液盘4相对于外筒和内筒固定地设置，可以是直接与外筒和内筒中至少之一固定连接，也可以是通过其它部件使均液盘与外筒和内筒保持相对固定。同理，遮挡部5相对于外筒和内筒固定地设置，可以是直接与外筒和内筒中至少之一固定连接，也可以是通过其它部件使遮挡部与外筒和内筒保持相对固定。
均液盘上用于使流体通过的结构可以是多个沿罐式换热器均匀间隔地设置于均液盘4的底部的均液孔40。当然，该用于使流体通过的结构并不限于孔状，也可以是缝状或其它形状，只要能够使液态工质通过均液盘后形成多个均匀液柱或液滴即可。
气体通道G可以设置于均液盘4的径向内侧或径向外侧，或者同时设置于均液盘4的径向内侧和径向外侧，相应地，遮挡部5的数目可以是一个或两个。对于形成于均液盘4的径向内端与内筒2的筒壁之间的气体通道G，相应地，与该气体通道G对应的遮挡主体的径向内端与内筒2的筒壁密封连接，径向外端与外筒1的筒壁形成间隔；对于形成于均液盘4的径向外端与外筒1的筒壁之间的气体通道G，相应地，与该气体通道G对应的遮挡主体的径向内端与内筒2的筒壁形成间隔，径向外端与外筒 1的筒壁密封连接。
本公开的实施例的罐式换热器中，液态工质可以由设置于外筒1的轴向的第一端的进液口10导入罐式换热器，内筒可以与气态工质管路连通以使气态工质能够从罐式换热器的内筒导入或导出，因此该罐式换热器既可作为蒸发器，又可作为冷凝器。
该罐式换热器作为蒸发器时，液态工质可以由工质入口经过均液盘4流向均液盘4的下方的第一换热管31；在液态工质向下流动的过程中，即使由于偏流或溅射等原因，部分工质液滴飞到内筒和外筒的筒壁上，也可以直接流入均液盘4，或者受到遮挡部5的阻挡，由遮挡部5导入均液盘4，起到回收液态工质的作用。而随液态工质经进液口10进入罐式换热器的气态工质，或在罐式换热器内从换热管吸热后汽化形成的气态工质，可以由均液盘4和遮挡部5上方的空间经过遮挡部5和均液盘4之间的轴向间隔、气体通道G顺畅地流下。因此，通过设置均液盘4和遮挡部5，并使两者之间形成可供气体流通的空间，可以消除气态工质的压力上升对液态工质流速的影响，降低液态工质在经过均液盘4上的孔或缝时的平均流速，从而起到降低工质在换热器内的压降的作用。
该罐式换热器作为冷凝器时，气态工质由工质入口经内筒流入外筒和内筒之间形成的环状空间后，可以通过气体通道G和遮挡部之间的轴向间隔顺畅地流动，便于流至均液盘4和遮挡部5的上方冷凝换热；气态工质冷凝产生的液态工质则可以由均液盘4流下，并储存于罐式换热器的底部。
无论是作为蒸发器还是冷凝器，本公开的实施例提供的罐式换热器在内部具有液态和气态两相的工质流动的状态下，其中的气态工质可通过遮挡部和均液盘之间的轴向间隔以及气体通道上下流动，其中的液态工质可通过均液盘流下，气态工质具有独立的流动空间，因此可以降低液态工质的平均流速，从而起到降低工质在换热器内的压降的作用。并且，遮挡部可以起到回收筒壁上流下的液态工质的作用，并将筒壁上流下的液态工质导入均液盘中，从而能够减少降膜液体的浪费，利于提升换热效率。
均液盘4的径向的两端可以分别与内筒和外筒的筒壁连接，只须在均液盘与内筒和外筒中至少之一的筒壁留出气体通道即可。然而，在实现本公开的过程中，发明人发现，由于外筒与内筒在罐式换热器的第一端形成套筒结构，均液盘要实现同时与外筒和内筒的筒壁连接十分困难，不利于整个罐式换热器的组装。
在一些实施例中，如图1、图2和图7所示，均液盘4的径向内端和径向外端之一与外筒1的筒壁和内筒2的筒壁之一形成密封，均液盘4的径向内端和径向外端另 一与外筒1的筒壁和内筒2的筒壁另一形成气体通道G。
上述实施例的罐式换热器不仅能够起到提供气态工质通道、减小工质压降和回收液态工质的作用，而且，均液盘只须与外筒和内筒中的一个的筒壁单侧连接，可以减小罐式换热器的组装难度，提高组装效率，降低制造成本。
具体地，气体通道G可以设置于均液盘4的径向内侧与内筒的外壁之间。在一些实施例中，如图1至图3所示，均液盘4的径向外端与外筒1的内壁密封连接，均液盘4的径向内端与内筒2的外壁形成气体通道G；遮挡主体的径向内端与内筒2的外壁固定连接。
在一些实施例中，在垂直于罐式换热器的轴向的截面上，气体通道G为环形。
上述实施例中，气体通道G贯穿罐式换热器的周向，气态工质的通流面积较大、通流效果更好，因此，减小工质压降的效果也更好。
当然，在另一些实施例中，沿罐式换热器的周向，气体通道G也可以是不连续的，只须满足能够使气态工质流通的条件即可。例如，在垂直于罐式换热器的轴向的截面上，气体通道G可以呈现为几个不连续的扇环形。
在一些实施例中，如图3所示，遮挡主体为垂直于罐式换热器的轴向的挡板51。
根据以上设置，在罐式换热器的使用状态下，挡板51水平地设置。图3所示的实施例中，挡板51的径向内端与内筒2的外壁固定连接且形成密封。
在一些实施例中，如图4所示，遮挡部5还包括边缘板52，边缘板52连接于遮挡主体的所述自由端，且向罐式换热器的轴向第二端延伸。
根据以上设置，在罐式换热器的使用状态下，挡板51水平地设置，边缘板52可以与挡板51垂直设置或与挡板51呈一定夹角，且能够起到一定的导流作用。图4所示的实施例中，挡板51的径向内端与内筒2的外壁固定连接且形成密封，边缘板52连接于挡板51的径向外端且与挡板51垂直设置，遮挡部5整体上呈L形。
在一些实施例中，遮挡主体为从连接端向自由端朝向靠近均液盘4的方向延伸的挡板51。
根据以上设置，在罐式换热器的使用状态下，挡板51自上而下地延伸且位于上方的一端与筒壁密封连接，形成类似于屋檐形状的结构，便于筒壁上的积聚的液态工质流向均液盘，从而起到良好的导流和回收作用。在一些实施例中，挡板51为平板或曲面板。
图5所示的实施例中，挡板51为平板，挡板51的径向内端与内筒2的外壁固定 连接且形成密封，挡板51从径向内端向径向外端自上而下地倾斜延伸。在一些未图示的实施例中，挡板51当然也可以采用曲面板，例如，挡板51可以是沿罐式换热器的径向的截面为圆弧形、抛物线形的曲面板。
在一些实施例中，如图6所示，罐式换热器还包括多个导流部6，多个导流部6间隔地设置于遮挡部5的靠近均液盘4的一侧的边缘，且向靠近均液盘4的方向延伸。
上述实施例中，导流部由遮挡部的靠近均液盘的一侧的边缘向靠近均液盘的方向延伸，例如，图6所示的实施例中，导流部6可以呈现为上下竖直延伸的柱状结构，在一些未图示的实施例中，导流部也可以是倾斜设置的。通过设置向靠近均液盘的方向延伸的多个间隔的导流部，通过遮挡部回收的液态工质可以在导流部的引导下流入均液盘，起到良好的导流作用，并且沿罐式换热器的径向，能够起到一定的阻挡作用。因此，导流部可以防止气态工质在流动时，遮挡部的径向边缘的工质液滴在滴落过程中被气态工质吹入气体通道G，从而可以进一步减少液态工质的浪费。
在一些实施例中，均液盘4呈从罐式换热器的轴向第一端向轴向第二端凹入的凹槽结构。其中，导流部6部分地延伸至凹槽结构内，或，导流部6的靠近罐式换热器的轴向第二端的边缘与凹槽结构的靠近罐式换热器的轴向第一端的边缘沿罐式换热器的轴向对齐。
根据上述设置，在罐式换热器的使用状态下，导流部6的底缘不高于凹槽结构侧壁的顶缘，可以进一步增强导流部的阻挡作用，更好地防止气态工质将工质液滴吹入气体通道。
在一些实施例中，内筒2为圆筒或多边形筒。其中，图1和图2示出了内筒为圆筒时的情形，图7示出了内筒为多边形筒时的情形。
多边形筒可以是四边形筒，例如长方形筒或正方形筒，也可以是五边形筒、六边形筒、八边形筒等。
在一些实施例中，如图1、图2和图7所示，罐式换热器还包括U形管7，U形管7的管中心线所在的平面沿罐式换热器的径向设置，U形管7的第一端设置于内筒2内且连通于内筒2，U形管7的第二端用于与气态工质管路连接以导入或导出气态工质。
为了将弯管段的半径相同的U形管装入内筒，相比于圆形的内筒，多边形的内筒所需的轴向截面的面积更小。因此，通过将内筒设置为多边形筒，利于增大气体通道G的通流面积，利于减小工质压降。考虑到U形管的管径过小时管内气体流速会过高， 而U形管的管径受弯管段的半径的限制，通过将内筒设置为多边形筒，可以在不减小弯管段的半径的前提下，使U形管的管径尽可能大，利于降低气态工质的流速，提升换热性能。
相比于将U形管装入圆形筒，将U形管装入多边形筒的轴向截面的面积更小。降低气态工质在气体通道G内的流速。
在一些实施例中，如图1、图2和图7所示，工质入口包括设置于外筒1的轴向第一端的用于导入液态工质的进液口10，工质出口包括与内筒2连通的用于导出气态工质的气态工质口70，和/或，工质入口包括与内筒2连通的用于导入气态工质的气态工质口70，工质出口包括设置于外筒1的轴向第二端的用于导出液态工质的出液口13。
以上实施例中，气态工质口70可以位于U形管7的第二端。
在设置第一换热管31的基础上，罐式换热器当然也可以包括设置于沿罐式换热器的轴向的不同位置的更多的换热管。
在一些实施例中，罐式换热器还包括第二换热管32和/或第三换热管9。第二换热管32盘绕于外筒1内且位于遮挡部5的远离均液盘4的一侧。第三换热管9盘绕于外筒1内且位于第一换热管31的远离均液盘4的一侧。
图1、图2和图7所示的实施例中，罐式换热器包括第一换热管31、第二换热管32和第三换热管9，且罐式换热器还包括布液器8。沿罐式换热器的轴向，布液器8、第二换热管32、遮挡部5、均液盘4、第一换热管31和第三换热管9自上而下依次设置。第一换热管31和第二换热管32共同构成降膜区换热管3，第三换热管9构成满液区换热管。
图1、图2和图7所示的实施例中，该罐式换热器用作蒸发器时，液态工质由进液口10、布液器8进入外筒1，与第二换热管32换热后，液态工质蒸发产生的气态工质由遮挡部5和均液盘4之间的轴向间隔、气体通道G流向内筒2和U形管7，由气态工质口70导出，其余液态工质经过均液盘4流向第一换热管31和第三换热管9继续换热；该罐式换热器用作冷凝器时，气态工质由气态工质口70、U形管7、内筒2进入外筒1，在外筒1与第三换热管9和第一换热管31换热后，气态工质冷凝产生的液态工质储存于罐式换热器的底部，并且可以由出液口13导出，其余气态工质由气体通道G、遮挡部5和均液盘4之间的轴向间隔流向外筒1和内筒2之间的环形区域，与第二换热管32继续换热。
在一些实施例中，如图1、图2和图7所示，外筒1包括筒体11、第一端盖12和第二端盖14，筒体11沿罐式换热器的径向可剖分地设置，第一端盖12封闭于筒体11的轴向第一端，第二端盖14封闭于筒体11轴向第二端，内筒2的轴向第一端连接于第一端盖12。
对于具有图1、图2和图7所示的结构的罐式换热器，罐式换热器在组装时，根据发明人已知的相关技术，为了将盘绕的换热管安装至外筒内，一般需要将外筒的筒体11沿图1、图2和图7所示的剖面剖分为两个半壳体，将换热管一端的管口塞入其中一个半壳体上对应的开孔，而后将另一个半壳体盖上并与前一个半壳体固定连接，最后将两个端盖封闭连接于筒体的轴向两端。因此，均液盘很难同时与内筒与外筒密封连接。
基于本公开上述实施例的方案，均液盘4只需与外筒1密封连接，而内筒2因为与第一端盖12连接，而不与均液盘4连接，因此内筒2安装时只需随第一端盖12一同由上至下伸入筒体11即可，从而可以进一步降低均液盘的安装难度。
罐式换热器例如为降膜蒸发器。
本公开的一些实施例还提供一种空调系统，包括前述罐式换热器。本公开的实施例提供的空调系统相应地具有前述罐式换热器的优点。
最后应当说明的是：以上实施例仅用以说明本公开的技术方案而非对其限制；尽管参照较佳实施例对本公开进行了详细的说明，所属领域的普通技术人员应当理解：依然可以对本公开的具体实施方式进行修改或者对部分技术特征进行等同替换，其均应涵盖在本公开请求保护的技术方案范围当中。
