This invention discloses an
evaporator for an
adsorption refrigeration machine and the
adsorption refrigeration machine itself, comprising: a
cooling medium inlet and a
cooling medium outlet; a liquid
refrigerant inlet and a gaseous
refrigerant outlet; at least one
cooling medium flow plate for supplying cooling medium flow, each cooling medium flow plate being connected to both the cooling medium inlet and the cooling medium outlet; and at least one
refrigerant flow plate for supplying refrigerant flow, each refrigerant flow plate being connected to both the liquid refrigerant inlet and the gaseous refrigerant outlet. The refrigerant flow plates and cooling medium flow plates are alternately stacked. This
evaporator is a plate
evaporator. By alternately stacking the cooling medium flow plates and refrigerant flow plates, plate cavities are formed between any adjacent cooling medium flow plates and refrigerant flow plates, creating alternating cooling medium flow spaces and refrigerant flow spaces. This achieves interactive heat exchange between the refrigerant and the cooling medium, resulting in a
cooling effect. It has a
high heat transfer coefficient, low
thermal resistance, and high
evaporation efficiency.
