MULTI-CHANNEL HIGH-EFFICIENCY HEAT DISSIPATION WATER-COOLING RADIATOR
A multi-channel high-efficiency heat dissipation water-cooling radiator includes a water distribution box, a water collection box, a first radiating pipe, a second radiating pipe, a third radiating pipe, and a fourth radiating pipe. Multiple chambers are formed by arranging partitions in both the water distribution box and the water collection box, and each radiating pipe is in communication with the corresponding chambers, so that the channels in the water-cooling radiator are connected in sequence to form a circuitous configuration. This allows the water to travel a longer distance in the water-cooling radiator, so that the water-cooling radiator can effectively cool the water and dissipate heat.
Plate type heat exchanger
A plate type heat exchanger includes a plate package in which a plurality of heat exchange plates is stacked to form a flow path, through which fluid flows, an end plate coupled to an outside of the plate package, and a socket connected to the plate package by passing through the end plate. The end plate includes a base which is in contact with the outside of the plate package, a socket hole which is formed through the base and into which the socket is inserted, and a ridge that protrudes outward from an edge of the socket hole of the base.
ELECTRIC FLUID HEATER
Electric fluid heater for a vehicle, including a heating block with an inlet and an outlet for the fluid, a first channel for the fluid intended to flow between the inlet and the outlet, a first tube and a second tube with opposing ends mounted in headers, the tubes having heating elements. The first channel is delimited by a top plate and a bottom plate sealingly connected to the first tube, the second tube and the headers.
Inlet and Outlet Channels for a Heat Exchanger
This document describes inlet and outlet channels for a heat exchanger that provides a compact profile with consistent cooling performances among heat exchanger plates. For example, a manifold of a cooling system includes an inlet channel and an outlet channel designed to connect to multiple plates of a heat exchanger. The inlet and outlet channels include a junction portion, a connection portion, and a transfer portion. The junction portion includes opposing inclined contact surfaces that are inclined relative to a horizontal plane of the plates and mate with corresponding inclined contact surfaces of the plates. The connection portion accepts coolant hoses. The transfer portion is located between the junction portion and connection portions. The described channels of the manifold are especially useful for automotive applications that generally have tight assembly spaces.
Connection of cooling circuit portions for an assembly of two housings
The invention relates to an assembly of two housings, a first housing comprising a first cooling circuit portion and a second housing comprising a second cooling circuit portion, said of this cooling circuit portions being configured to form a cooling circuit with a fluid, each housing comprising a flat face comprising an opening of a respective cooling circuit portion and defining an interface of said cooling circuit, said cooling circuit portions being configured to be fluidically connected by plane-plane contact between said flat faces, said openings being arranged substantially opposite each other.
HEAT EXCHANGER AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF
A heat exchanger includes a main body portion and a cover. The main body portion includes a heat exchange core, a collecting pipe portion and a first mounting shell. The collecting pipe portion includes a first collecting pipe portion and a second collecting pipe portion. Both the first collecting pipe portion and the second collecting pipe portion are provided with mounting end plates. Two ends of the first mounting shell are hermetically connected to the mounting end plates by brazing. The first mounting shell encloses part of the heat exchange core in a circumferential direction. Two ends of the cover are hermetically connected to the mounting end plates by bonding. The cover and the first mounting shell are arranged in an enclosing manner in the circumferential direction. The heat exchanger improves stability and reliability. A manufacture method of the heat exchanger is also disclosed.
Heat exchanger header fabricated with integral flange using additive metal process
An additively manufactured header for a heat exchanger includes a header body. The header body includes a base and a top opposite the base. The base is open and configured for connection to a heat exchanger core. The additively manufactured header further includes a tube extending from the top of the header body and a flange formed on the tube. The header body, the tube, and the flange are all additively manufactured together.
Machine system having cooler with pack seal and header assembly for same
A machine system includes a compressor, and a cooler having an inlet tank to receive compressed air from the compressor, and a header assembly attached to the inlet tank and including a plurality of cooling tubes supported in the header and each having an external heat exchange surface exposed to a flow of cooling air. The cooler further includes a plurality of graphite pack seals each extending peripherally around one of the cooling tubes, and a clamping assembly clamping the pack seals against the header to squeeze the pack seals into sealing contact with the cooling tubes and the header.
DOUBLE TUBE FOR HEAT-EXCHANGE
Disclosed herein is a double tube for heat exchange. The double tube for heat exchange includes: a spiral pipe having ridges and valleys alternately formed on a circumferential surface thereof along a spiral track thereof and guiding a first fluid to flow therethrough; an outer pipe receiving the spiral pipe axially inserted thereinto and guiding a second fluid to flow along the circumferential surface of the spiral pipe in an axial direction such that the second fluid exchanges heat with the first fluid; and a resistance member protruding from the spiral pipe or the valleys to increase residence time of the second fluid in the valleys on the circumferential surface of the spiral pipe and to support the ridges adjacent thereto. Unlike typical double tubes, the double tube for heat exchange can improve heat exchange efficiency between a second fluid flowing inside an outer pipe and a fluid flowing inside a spiral pipe axially inserted into the outer pipe to increase residence time of the second fluid inside the outer pipe by virtue of a spiral shape of the spiral pipe; can improve flow directionality of the second fluid through formation of the grooves in valleys of the spiral pipe along a spiral track of the valleys; can reduce flow-induced noise through expansion of a space defined between an end joint of the outer pipe and the inner pipe to reduce the pressure of the second fluid; and further improve heat exchange efficiency through resistance members protruding from the valleys to increase residence time of the second fluid.
CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY, PLATE FOR USE WITH SUCH AN ASSEMBLY AND A COOLING SYSTEM INCLUDING SUCH AN ASSEMBLY
The invention relates to a connector assembly including a plate (10) having an orifice (10a) and a spigot (12), said spigot (12) having an internal flow path for liquid, and connector means (14) for connecting the spigot (12) to the metal plate (10) so as to guide the liquid flowing in the flow path through said orifice (10a), said connector means (14) including a protruding collar structure (16) surrounding said orifice (10a).
It is proposed that the connector means (14) further includes a ring-shaped snap-on module (18) configured to be fitted over the collar structure (16), said snap-on module (18) including a cylindrical insertion part (18a) configured to be inserted into an orifice (10a) of said collar structure (16), wherein a remote end of the cylindrical insertion part (18a) in the insertion direction is provided with first snap-on structures engaging with the collar structure (16).
