Heat exchanger
A heat exchanger includes a heat transfer unit (HTU) including a heat transfer channel portion (HTCP) and auxiliary heat transfer portions (AHTPs). The HTCP and the AHTPs extend in a direction and are disposed in another direction being perpendicular to the direction. One of the AHTPs is an AHTP adjacent to the HTCP in another direction. When viewed from the direction, the AHTP is at an end of the HTU in another direction. A distance from the AHTP to the HTCP in another direction is defined as a length, in a case where the HTU further includes a plurality of HTCPs, the length is larger than a distance between adjacent ones of the HTCPs in another direction, and in a caser where the heat exchanger further includes a plurality of HTUs, the length is larger than a distance between the HTUs adjacent to each other in a direction different.
HEAT EXCHANGER AND AIR CONDITIONER
A heat exchanger including: a header; flat tubes connected to the header and disposed in line along a longitudinal direction of the header; a first partition that partitions an inner space of the header into a first space on a side where the flat tubes are connected and a second space on a side opposite to the first space; and a second partition that partitions the inner space of the header into a first side and a second side. The first side is one side of the header in the longitudinal direction and the second side is opposite to the first side. The first partition has a common opening. The common opening includes an insertion opening and a refrigerant opening. A refrigerant moves between the first space and the second space via the refrigerant opening. The second partition is inserted into the insertion opening.
HEAT TRANSFER DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME
A device for heat transfer between a first fluid and a second fluid includes an assembly of tube elements for conducting the fluid and have a first, nondeformed region and a second, deformed region, disposed at an end of the tube element. A tube plate with passage apertures and a sealing element with passage apertures are provided. The sealing element is disposed between an outer surface of the second region of a tube element and an edge of a rim of the passage aperture of the tube plate. Tube elements are developed as flat tubes with flow channels. Flow channels are separated from one another by an internal structure element. A system and a method for the manufacture of the device are also provided.
MICROTUBE HEAT EXCHANGER HEADER
A heat exchanger manifold for use in a heat exchanger having a plurality of microtubes includes a receiving component for supporting and forming a seal about each of the plurality of microtubes and a circuiting component having at least one recessed channel for defining an enclosed flow configuration of a fluid of the heat exchanger. The receiving component is joined and sealed to the circuiting component such that an internal flow passage of the plurality of microtubes is arranged in fluid communication with the at least one recessed channel.

Stacking-type header, heat exchanger, and air-conditioning apparatus
A stacking-type header according to the present invention includes: a first plate-shaped unit; and a second plate-shaped unit stacked on the first plate-shaped unit, and having a distribution flow passage, in which the distribution flow passage includes a branching flow passage including: a first flow passage; and a second flow passage, and in which the branching flow passage is smaller in difference in flow resistance between the first flow passage and the second flow passage than a branching flow passage in a state in which a flow-passage resistance in the first flow passage and a flow-passage resistance in the second flow passage are equal to each other, and in a state in which the first flow passage and the second flow passage are point symmetric with each other about the opening port.
Heat exchanger array
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.
