The present application discloses an evaporator and a liquid blocking device thereof. The liquid blocking device includes: a body, which has a plate-shaped first separator extending in a longitudinal direction, the first separator having a plurality of holes, and the plurality of holes communicating an exterior of the body with an interior of the body; and a second separator attached to the body, the second separator being configured to have a plurality of openings which abut each other, so that a pressure drop generated when a fluid passes through the second separator via the openings is less than a pressure drop generated when the fluid passes through the first separator. The present application can improve the effect of gas-liquid separation.

A liquid to refrigerant heat exchanger includes an enclosed coolant volume that is at least partially defined by a plastic housing and by a metal closure plate. The metal closure plate can be part of a brazed assembly containing a continuous refrigerant flow path. The refrigerant flow path is disposed within the coolant volume, where heat can be transferred between the refrigerant within the refrigerant flow path and the liquid within the coolant volume. The plastic housing can at least partially surround the refrigerant flow path to at least partially bound a liquid flow path along a portion of the coolant volume. An inlet diffuser and an outlet diffuser can be mounted to the housing to direct the liquid through the housing. The plastic housing is sealingly joined to the closure plate along an outer periphery of the closure plate.

A shell-and-tube heat exchanger and an air conditioning system. The shell-and-tube heat exchanger includes: a shell provided with a liquid inlet and an vapor outlet, the vapor outlet being disposed at an top portion of the shell; and a heat exchange tube bundle disposed in the shell in an axial direction of the shell; wherein the heat exchange tube bundle includes: a plurality of first heat exchange tubes located at an upper portion, the first heat exchange tubes having a first spacing therebetween; and a plurality of second heat exchange tubes located at a lower portion, the second heat exchange tubes having a second spacing therebetween; the first spacing is different from the second spacing.

A heating and/or cooling temperature adjusting apparatus disposed proximate a point of use comprising a heat exchange structure, at least one thermal mass unit comprised of a material which changes phase at a predetermined temperature, and a housing which at least partially encloses the heat exchange structure and thermal mass unit. Additionally, a plurality of thermal mass units can be employed, each with equivalent, or differing, temperature threshold points for conversion between solid, liquid or gaseous phases. The presence of the thermal mass unit at the point of use allows for the heating/cooling system to rapidly adjust the temperature of the room while simultaneously decreasing the duty cycle of the heating/cooling generator (e.g. boiler).

An exhaust gas heat exchanger may include a tube bundle and a housing through which a coolant is flowable. The tube bundle may include a plurality of exhaust gas-conducting tubes held in a first tube base and a second tube base. The housing may enclose the tube bundle and may have face ends delimited by the first tube base and the second tube base. The housing may include a coolant inlet arranged in a region of the second tube base and a coolant outlet arranged in a region of the first tube base such that the coolant flows in counter flow relative to the exhaust gas. A plurality of coolant bypass passages may be arranged between the tube bundle and the housing. At least a subset of the plurality of coolant bypass passages may be at least partly blocked by an inlay structured and arranged to steer a coolant flow.

A falling film evaporator (100), a housing (101) thereof being accommodated with a heat exchange tube (304), a perforated plate (205) and a spraying tube (202), the perforated plate (205) being provided between the spraying tube (202) and the heat exchange tube (304), such that refrigerant sprayed from the spraying tube (202) is sprayed onto the surface of the heat exchange tube (304) by means of distribution of the perforated plate (205); spraying openings (301) on the spraying tube (202) have a strip shape, and the extension direction of the openings is perpendicular to the length direction of the spraying tube (202). By means of configuring the length direction of the spraying tube (202) to be substantially perpendicular to the length direction of the heat exchange tube (304), refrigerant sprayed from the spraying openings (301) flows substantially in the length direction of the housing (101), the flow path of the refrigerant being lengthened, avoiding uneven spraying on the surface of the heat exchange tube (304).

A heat exchanger 100 includes: an inner cylinder 10 through which a first fluid can flow, the inner cylinder 10 being configured to be capable of housing a heat recovery member 40; an outer cylinder 20 disposed so as to be spaced on a radially outer side of the inner cylinder 10 such that a second fluid can flow between the outer cylinder 20 and the inner cylinder 10; and an intermediate cylinder 30 disposed between the inner cylinder 10 and the outer cylinder 20, the intermediate cylinder 30 partitioning a flow path for the second fluid into an inner flow path 31b and an outer flow path 31a. In the heat exchanger, the intermediate cylinder 30 includes communication holes 32 that are communicated in a radial direction, and the communication holes 32 are provided in an axial direction of the intermediate cylinder 30.

An example refrigeration system includes an indoor fluid loop, an outdoor fluid loop, and a heat exchanger assembly. The indoor fluid loop circulates a first working fluid. The outdoor fluid loop circulates a second working fluid that is different from the first working fluid and is separated from the indoor fluid loop by a wall of a structure. The heat exchanger assembly is mounted within the wall of the structure. The heat exchanger assembly includes a heat exchanger and a housing, where the heat exchanger is disposed within an internal space defined by the housing. The housing supports the heat exchanger within the internal space and is mounted to a structure of the wall.

An apparatus for vaporizing a medium and separating droplets as well as for condensing, in which apparatus an evaporator (A) and a condenser (B) are arranged inside a single outer casing in such a manner that they are separated from each other by a partition wall.

A heat exchanger comprises a plurality of heat exchange segments juxtaposed in a housing, and a plug member connected fluid-tightly to the housing, and supporting the heat exchange segments to provide a coolant or cooling medium passage in each gap between the heat exchange segments adjacent to each other. Each heat exchange segment comprises a case having an opening only on a surface of the case, at least outside of the opening being plugged fluid-tightly by the plug member, and a guide member, e.g., fin accommodated in the case, and provided with a plurality of passages allowing only gas flow in a predetermined direction, and gas intake passages and gas exhaust passages at the upstream and downstream thereof, wherein an opening of the case is provided with a gas inlet port communicated with the gas intake passage, and a gas outlet port communicated with the gas exhaust passages.
