The present invention provides a stack-type vertical heat dissipation device comprising an evaporator unit and a condenser unit. The evaporator unit has a side configured for direct or indirect contact with, and thereby receiving heat from, a high-temperature device in order for the heat to convert a heat conduction medium inside the evaporator unit into a gaseous state. The condenser unit is stacked on a top side of a housing of the evaporator unit, and is provided therein with a flow channel that is in communication with the evaporator unit and allows passage of the heat conduction medium so that the heat conduction medium is able to return to the evaporator unit under a force of gravity after condensing from the gaseous state into a liquid state and thereby complete a thermal cycle.

The present disclosure provides an air handler having a cabinet and a plurality of refrigerant tubes, where each refrigerant tube has a diameter of 7 mm. The air handler includes a V-shaped round tube plate fin heat exchanger disposed within the cabinet and including a plurality of louvered fins. Each louvered fin defines a plurality of holes configured to receive the refrigerant tubes. The plurality of holes defines a linear offset configuration of the louvered fin. The air handler further includes an axial fan housing disposed within the cabinet and located downstream of the V-shaped round tube plate fin heat exchanger, a distributor in fluid communication with the refrigerant tubes, and a plurality of feeder tubes extending between the distributor and the refrigerant tubes. Each feeder tube is configured to allow flow of refrigerant therethrough.

A heat exchanger includes heat transfer tubes and a header that forms a refrigerant flow path. The header includes: a first member that includes a first plate-shaped portion; a second member that includes a second plate-shaped portion; a third member that includes a third plate-shaped portion positioned between the first plate-shaped portion and the second plate-shaped portion in a first direction that is a direction in which the first plate-shaped portion and the second plate-shaped portion are arranged; a fourth member that includes a fourth plate-shaped portion positioned between the first plate-shaped portion and the second plate-shaped portion in the first direction and a second opening that constitutes a part of the refrigerant flow path, where a second is along a longitudinal direction of the second opening; and a fifth member.

A heat exchanger array includes a first row of heat exchangers, a second row of heat exchangers, and side curtains. The first row heat exchangers are spaced apart to define first gaps. The second row heat exchangers are spaced apart to define second gaps and are positioned downstream of and staggered from the first row heat exchangers such that the second row heat exchangers are aligned with the first gaps and the first row heat exchangers are aligned with the second gaps. Each side curtain is in close proximity to a first row heat exchanger and a second row heat exchanger. The side curtains define a neck region upstream of and aligned with each first row heat exchanger and each second row heat exchanger. Each neck region has a neck area that is less than a frontal area of the heat exchanger with which it is aligned.

Heat exchangers and methods for assembling a heat exchanger are described, such as for example a round tube heat exchanger, which may be a fin and tube heat exchanger, and which may be used for example in a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVAC) system and/or unit thereof. The heat exchanger includes aluminum tubes mechanically rolled into an aluminum tube support and the tubes are fluidically sealed with the tube support. The aluminum tube support including the aluminum tubes rolled therein is assembled to a fluid manifold configured to allow fluid flow through the heat exchanger and into and/or out of the heat exchanger.

The invention relates to a heat exchanger assembly with at least one multi-pass heat exchanger, comprising a first distributor (1) with a first connection part (1a) for connecting to a fluid line (9), a second distributor (2) with a second connection part (2a) for connecting to a fluid line (9), and at least one first deflection distributor (4), as well as a plurality of tube lines (5) through which a fluid, in particular water, can flow, wherein the first distributor (1) and the second distributor (2) are arranged at one end (A) of the heat exchanger assembly, the deflection distributor (4) is arranged at the opposite end (B) and the tube lines (5) extend from the one end (A) to the opposite end (B), and wherein the first connection part (1a) is arranged at a lowest point (T) or at least near to the lowest point (T) of the first distributor (1) and the second connection piece (2a) is arranged at a lowest point (T) or at least near to the lowest point (T) of the second distributor (2). In order to allow for the heat exchanger assembly to be quickly filled with the fluid and quickly emptied, a third connection part (3) is arranged on the first distributor (1) and/or on the second distributor (2) at a highest point (H) or at least near to the highest point (H) of the respective distributor (1 or 2), and at least one ventilation opening (10) is provided at a highest point (T) or at least near to the highest point (T) of the deflection distributor (4) for pressure equalisation with the environment.

An evaporator includes: fins disposed at a predetermined interval in a fin thickness direction; heat transfer tubes extending through the fins in the fin thickness direction; and a first heat exchange section in which, when the heat transfer tubes are viewed in the fin thickness direction, a center of distribution of the heat transfer tubes in an airflow direction is disposed on a leeward side of a center of the fins in the airflow direction. The evaporator is disposed in a refrigeration cycle apparatus in which a non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture is enclosed.

In an embodiment, a heat exchanger includes a monolithic body that includes a first substrate, a second substrate, a third substrate, and a plurality of partial height fins. The second substrate is arranged parallel to and spaced from the first substrate, thereby defining a first fluid flow path. The third substrate is arranged parallel to and spaced from the second substrate opposite the first substrate, thereby defining a second fluid flow path. The plurality of partial height fins extend from one of the second substrate and the third substrate toward the other of the second substrate or the third substrate, wherein a terminal edge of each partial height fin is at least partially spaced from the other of the second substrate or the third substrate.

A heat exchanger includes a first fluid manifold extending along a first fluid axis from a first fluid inlet to a first fluid outlet. The first fluid manifold includes a first fluid inlet header, a first fluid outlet header, and a nested helical core section. The first fluid inlet header is disposed to fork the first fluid inlet into a plurality of first fluid branches distributed circumferentially and radially about the first fluid axis. The first fluid outlet header is disposed to combine the plurality of first fluid branches into the first fluid outlet. The nested helical core section fluidly connects the first fluid inlet header to the first fluid outlet header via a plurality of nested helical tubes, and includes radially inner and outer groups of circumferentially distributed helical tubes.
