The present disclosure relates to a heat exchanger including a plurality of fluid guiding metal pipes (2) having pipe ends (3) arranged side by side at intervals, at least one pipe bottom (4) made of plastic and having receiving through-holes (5) in which the pipe ends (3) may be received, and a collection box (6) made of plastic and which may be connected to the pipe bottom (4) by a locking device formed between the pipe bottom and the collection box, wherein a seal (9) may be inserted between the pipe bottom (4) and the collection box (6), and the seal ensures press-fit of the pipe bottom (4) on the pipe ends (3) and seals the collection box (6) against the pipe bottom (4) and the pipe bottom (4) against the pipe ends (3).

Apparatuses, systems and methods are directed to heat exchangers that are made of microchannel tubes and that have offset fins of various geometries and density. The heat exchanger coils can be implemented in various refrigeration and/or heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) units or systems thereof.

Corrugated fins that have high heat transfer performance and do not cause clogging even in a gaseous environment in which particulate matter such as dust is present have wall surfaces on which are formed alternating parallel ridges and furrows with an angle of inclination of 10-60°. Defining Wh as the height of the ridges and furrows, Wp as the period of the ridges and furrows, Pf as the period of the corrugated fins, and Tf as the thickness of the plate forming the fins, the following conditions hold.

A heat exchanger is provided including a first manifold, a second manifold separated from the first manifold, and a plurality of heat exchanger tubes arranged in spaced parallel relationship fluidly coupling the first and second manifolds. A first end of each heat exchange tube extends partially into an inner volume of the first manifold and has an inlet formed therein. A distributor is positioned within the inner volume of the first manifold. At least a portion of the distributor is arranged within the inlet formed in the first end of one or more of the plurality of heat exchange

A polymer tube dry cooling tower designed to operate with internal fluid at or near atmospheric pressure.

A microchannel evaporator includes a plurality of microchannels. Each of the plurality of microchannels includes a first end and a second end. A first end-tank is coupled to each first end of the plurality of microchannels and a second end-tank is coupled to each second end of the plurality of microchannels. A second-fluid inlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to receive a fluid into the microchannel evaporator and a second-fluid outlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to expel the fluid from the microchannel evaporator. Each microchannel of the plurality of microchannels includes at least one bend along a length thereof.

A microchannel heat exchanger is configured for use as an evaporator in a fluid cooling system and includes an inlet header, an outlet header, and a plurality of microchannel tubes extending between and in fluid communication with the inlet header and the outlet header. A microvalve actuated hybrid spool valve is attached to and in fluid communication with the inlet header.

The invention relates to a heat exchanger, particularly for cooling a fluid, comprising a plurality of tubes through which a fluid can flow, an end face of each tube terminating in a collector chamber, said collector chambers being fluidically interconnected by means of the tubes and at least one of said tubes comprising at least one wall section formed from a selectively-permeable membrane. The invention also relates to a tube for a heat exchanger.

A tube used in a heat exchanger, wherein a tube body includes a curved end portion, a pair of parallel portions, a pair of inclination portions, and a fixed portion in which a long end part extending from one of the pair of inclination portions is bent to hold therebetween a short end part extending from the other of the pair of inclination portions, and the tube is a pipe member having a flattened shape in cross-section. Poor brazing is reduced by making the inclination angle of at least part of the other inclination portion with respect to the flat plate portion larger than that of the one inclination portion.

A liquid cooling device includes a first liquid cooling row having a first inflow end and a first outflow end for liquid to flow in a first direction, a second liquid cooling row having a second inflow end and a second outflow end, and a fan. The second liquid cooling row is disposed opposite to the first liquid cooling row. The second inflow end is connected to the first outflow end for the liquid flowing out from the first outflow end to flows in a second direction opposite to the first direction. Airflow generated by the fan sequentially flows through the second and first liquid cooling rows to cool the liquid. A projection device having the liquid cooling device is also provided.
