A refrigerant evaporator includes a first core, a second core, a first plate, and a second plate. The first core and the second core respectively include a plurality of first tubes and a plurality of second tubes extending along a tube longitudinal direction and stacked along a tube stacking direction. The first plate houses one end portions of the first tubes and the second tubes. The second plate faces the first core and the second core across the first plate and is joined to the first plate in the tube longitudinal direction. The second plate includes a plurality of ribs. The ribs and the first plate define a plurality of intermediate passageways therein. Each of the intermediate passageways allows communication between a corresponding one of the first tubes and a corresponding one of the second tubes.

Modular fluid flow distribution system in which differently shaped plates can be rearranged to different positions

Modular flow control systems include several differently-shaped structures to achieve desired flow characteristics in fluid flow. Systems include one or many plates held in desired positions by a retainer within the flow. The plates are uniquely shaped based on their position, or vice versa, to shape flow in a desired manner. The plates may fill an entire flow area or may extend partially throughout the area. Plates can take on any shape and are useable in systems installed in any type of flow conduit. When used in a PCCS upper manifold in a nuclear reactor, a chevron plate directly below the inlet divides flow along the entire upper manifold. Perforated plates allow flow to pass at ends of the PCCS upper manifold. The plates can be installed along a grooved edge during an access period and held in static position by filling the length of the PCCS upper manifold.

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.
