Vehicle air conditioner system
Provided is an air conditioner system for a vehicle. The air conditioner system for a vehicle includes a compressor, an integral condenser in which a water cooling region and an air cooling region are formed integrally with each other, an expansion valve, and an evaporator, wherein the water cooling region and the air cooling region of the integral condenser are formed on one plate, such that existing air cooling and water cooling condensers may be formed integrally with each other through one-time brazing coupling, thereby reducing a package and simplifying assembling and manufacturing processes.
Liquid to refrigerant heat exchanger, and method of operating the same
A liquid to refrigerant heat exchanger is provided having a stack of nested plates with fluid flow passages defined between the plates. The stack includes a condenser portion and a subcooler portion. A base plate at a bottom end of the stack has a refrigerant outlet port and a receiver bottle joined to it. A receiver flow path extends through a structural connection joining the receiver bottle to the base plate to allow for fluid flow between an internal volume of the receiver bottle and the condenser portion. Another receiver flow path extends through another structural connection to allow for fluid flow between an internal volume of the receiver bottle and the subcooler portion.
STACKED PLATE HEAT EXCHANGER
A stacked plate heat exchanger for a motor vehicle may include a plurality of elongated plates stacked on one another between which a plurality of cavities are disposed alternately for two media. The plurality of cavities may be respectively delimited by a respective plate of the plurality of plates zonally by a plate surface and a surrounding wall. The respective plate may include two flow openings, two passage openings, and two domes respectively arranged around one of the two passage openings. At least of one of the plurality of plates may further include an elongated separation shaping arranged on the plate surface, projecting into the respective cavity, and extending from the first short side between the two flow openings in a direction of the second short side. The separation shaping may adjoin the first short side at an angle of 45 to 90.
Heat exchanger, in particular a condenser
Heat exchanger, in particular condenser, comprises two parallel end closing plates (1, 2) having made a coolant inlet and outlet and at least one inlet and an outlet of the refrigerant. A heat exchange unit is provided between the closing plates (1, 2) and at least one coolant compartment and at least one refrigerant compartment, separated by an inner plate (5). The coolant compartments and, refrigerant compartments are arranged alternately and connected such that they form together with said inlets and outlets separated hydraulic circuits for the coolant and refrigerant and a turbulator panel (3, 4) is arranged in each of the compartments (3, 4). The turbulator panels (3) of the refrigerant circuit comprise on their surface first disturbing elements (9) the shape of which is matched to the physical properties of the gaseous refrigerant, and which determine the height of the turbulator panel of the refrigerant circuit, while the turbulator panels (4) of the coolant circuit comprise on their surface second disturbing elements (10) the shape of which is matched to the physical properties of the liquid coolant which determine the height of the turbulator panel of the coolant circuit, wherein the shape of the first disturbing elements (9) is different from the shape of the second disturbing elements (10). The shape of the turbulator panels (3, 4) is matched to the independent optimal managing, slowing down and disturbing of the refrigerant and the coolant, while ensuring a low pressure drop of their flow to achieve a high heat exchange coefficient.
Reduction of scale build-up in an evaporative cooling apparatus
A direct evaporative cooler includes a liquid delivery system and an assembly of two or more plates. At least one plate of the assembly of two or more plates may include a top surface having a wicking material with an exposed surface for receiving a liquid thereon from the liquid delivery system, and one or more masks lining a portion of the exposed surface. The one or more masks may be impermeable to the liquid thereby preventing the liquid from evaporating through the one or more masks, and the one or more masks may be sized and shaped such that a wick rate of the liquid on the exposed surface exceeds an evaporation rate of the liquid.
DOUBLE-SIDED ROLL BOND CONDENSER, DOUBLE-SIDED ROLL BOND CONDENSER RUSHING STRUCTURE, AND RUSHING METHOD THEREOF
A double-sided roll bond condenser has a main body, an interposition section, and a neck portion. The main body is an upright board and has two side surfaces. Two filling structures are respectively protruded from the two side surfaces of the main body. The interposition section is formed at a bottom portion of the double-side roll bond condenser, and is a U-shaped folded structure. The U-shaped folded structure protrudes from one of the two side surfaces of the main body. The neck portion is located between the main body and the interposition section.
PLATE TYPE HEAT EXCHANGER AND REFRIGERATION CYCLE APPARATUS
A plate heat exchanger includes a plate stack including a plurality of heat transfer plates stacked with each other. Each of the heat transfer plates includes a heat medium inflow hole serving as an inlet for a heat medium, a heat medium outflow hole serving as an outlet for the heat medium, a refrigerant inflow hole serving as an inlet for refrigerant, and a refrigerant outflow portion located below the refrigerant inflow hole and serving as an outlet for the refrigerant. The heat transfer plates define heat medium passages, through each of which the heat medium flowing from the heat medium inflow hole flows, and refrigerant passages, through each of which the refrigerant flowing from the refrigerant inflow hole flows downward, arranged alternately with one another. Each of the heat medium passages and the refrigerant passages is defined between adjacent ones of the heat transfer plates.
Condenser with a refrigerant supply for an air-conditioning circuit
A condenser for an air conditioning circuit is disclosed. The condenser has a housing which is connected to a refrigerating fluid reserve by a flange having cylinder shaped tubes, the housing receiving a first heat exchange portion between the refrigerating fluid and a cooling liquid, the first portion being configured to convey the refrigerating fluid to the refrigerating fluid reserve, and a second heat exchange portion which produces a heat exchange complement between the refrigerating fluid and the cooling liquid at the outlet of the refrigerating fluid reserve.
