The condenser includes a plurality of mutually parallel and spaced condenser tubes across which air for condensing the motive fluid flows that are disposed at an angle of inclination with respect to a horizontal plane of at least 5 degrees, such that accumulated liquid condensate is evacuated by gravitational forces.
HEAT EXCHANGER ARRANGEMENT
A heat exchanger arrangement includes a housing in which an air inlet opening is arranged on the circumference, a cover that covers the housing on an upper side and in which an air outlet opening is arranged, a reverse-operated radial fan being arranged inside the housing in such a way that it can generate an air flow between the air inlet opening and the air outlet opening, which air flow is directed radially inward with respect to the axis of rotation of the radial fan and which flows through at least one air heat exchanger arranged in the housing.
TWO-PHASE IMMERSION TYPE HEAT DISSIPATION FIN COMPOSITE STRUCTURE
A two-phase immersion type heat dissipation fin composite structure is provided. The two-phase immersion type heat dissipation fin composite structure includes a heat dissipation base layer, a bubble activation layer, and a fin structure. The fin structure and the bubble activation layer are both formed on the heat dissipation base layer, or the fin structure is formed on the bubble activation layer. The bubble activation layer is immersed in a two-phase coolant for increasing an amount of bubbles that is generated.
HONEY PROCESSING APPARATUS
A honey processing apparatus that is configured to provide processing of a wax/honey emulsion so as to separate the honey from the wax and provide separate collection thereof. The present invention includes a vessel having a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber includes an interior volume having a heating fluid disposed therein. The second chamber is also disposed within the interior volume of the first chamber and wherein the heating fluid is surroundably present thereto. A coil is present within the second chamber and the coil is fluidly coupled with the heating fluid. A pump is operably coupled to the coil and is configured to provide closed-loop recirculation of the heating fluid within the coil so as to provide heating of the wax/honey emulsion in order to facilitate the separation thereof. A honey extraction tube coupled with the second chamber provides extraction of the honey.
Heat exchange system and method
A dual fluid heat exchange system is presented that provides a stable output temperature for a heated fluid while minimizing the output temperature of a cooled fluid. The heated and cooled fluids are brought into thermal contact with each other within a tank. The output temperature of the warmed fluid is maintained at a stable temperature by a re-circulation loop that connects directly to the mid portion of the tank such that the re-circulated fluid flow primarily warms only a re-circulation section of the tank. The other, lower flow rate, section of the tank may be positioned so that it has a cooler temperature and thus serves to increase the efficiency of the heat exchange by extracting extra heat energy out of the cooled fluid before it leaves the tank. Alternatively, the low flow rate section of the tank may be warmer than the re-circulated section, and thus allow the re-circulated section to be cooler than the output temperature of the warmed fluid.
Heat exchanger and refrigeration cycle apparatus
In a heat exchanger, each of a plurality of heat exchange members includes: a flat pipe; and a heat transfer plate integrated with the flat pipe along a longitudinal direction of the flat pipe. A width direction of each of the flat pipes intersects with a direction in which the plurality of heat exchange members are arranged side by side. Each of the heat transfer plates includes an extending portion extending outward in the width direction of each of the flat pipes from at least one of one end of a corresponding one of the flat pipes in the width direction and another end of the corresponding one of the flat pipes in the width direction. Each of the flat pipes has one or more flat pipe bent portions, each forming a groove extending along the longitudinal direction of the flat pipes.
Layered diffuser channel heat exchanger
A layered diffuser-channel heat exchanger may comprise a plurality of fluid channel layers and a plurality of diffuser fin layers interleaved with the plurality of fluid channel layers. Each fluid channel layer of the plurality of fluid channel layers may have a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface, and a fluid channel located between the first surface and the second surface.
