Problems solved by technology

When the water flow resistance of the cooling water increases, there is a concern that the heat transfer rate of the low water temperature radiator will decrease because the cooling water is difficult to flow in the tube
This is one of the main reasons why the heat transfer rate of the low water temperature radiator cannot be improved even if inner fins are provided inside the tubes
[0011] In addition, such a technical problem is not limited to low-temperature radiators, but between the fluid flowing inside the tube and the fluid flowing outside the tube. Common technical problems of heat exchangers for heat exchange

no. 1 approach

[0040] first of all, yes figure 1 The heat exchanger 10 of the first embodiment shown will be described. figure 1 The illustrated heat exchanger 10 is mounted on a vehicle including an engine and an electric motor as power sources for traveling. In the heat exchanger 10, engine cooling water for cooling the engine and cooling water for cooling the electric motor and its peripheral equipment circulate. In addition, since the cooling water used for cooling the electric motor and its peripheral equipment is lower than the engine cooling water, it is called "low temperature cooling water" hereinafter. The heat exchanger 10 is a composite radiator capable of cooling the engine cooling water and the low-temperature cooling water by exchanging heat between the engine cooling water and air, and by exchanging heat between the low-temperature cooling water and the air. In the present embodiment, the engine cooling water and the low-temperature cooling water correspond to the first flu...

no. 2 approach

[0076] Next, the heat exchanger 10 of the second embodiment will be described. Hereinafter, description will focus on differences from the heat exchanger 10 of the first embodiment.

[0077] Such as Figure 8 As shown, in the heat exchanger 10 of the present embodiment, a plurality of protrusions 232a are formed on the non-joint portions 231a, 231b of the inner fins 23 . The protrusion 232 a is formed not to be in contact with the inner surface of the tube 21 . The arrangement of the protrusions 232a of the non-joint portion 231a is substantially the same as the arrangement of the protrusions 232a of the non-joint portion 231b. Thus, the space separated by the joint parts 230a, 230b, the non-joint part 231a and the outer wall parts 210, 211 of the tube 21 is defined as the first space S1, and the joint part passing through the inner fin 23 is defined as the first space S1. When the space partitioned by 230b, 230c, the non-joint portion 231b, and the outer wall portions 210,...

Embodiment approach

[0103] In addition, each embodiment can also be implemented in the following aspects.

[0104] In the heat exchanger 10 of each embodiment, the space partitioned by the joint parts 230a, 230b, the non-joint part 231a of the inner fin 23, and the outer wall parts 210, 211 of the tube 21 is defined as the first space S1, and the When the space separated by the joint parts 230b, 230c of the inner fin 23, the non-joint part 231b and the outer wall parts 210, 211 of the tube 21 is used as the second space S2, the first space S1 and the second space S2 may also be relative to each other. The central line of the tube 21 in the air flow direction Y has a line-symmetrical shape. According to such a structure, the cooling water can flow more uniformly in the internal flow path of the tube 21 .

[0105] In the inner fin 23 of the first embodiment, the plurality of protrusions 210 a and 211 a may be formed line-symmetrically with respect to the central line in the airflow direction Y. I...

Abstract

This heat exchanger comprises a fin (23) accommodated inside a tube (21). The fin has: joining parts (230a, 230b, 230c) that are folded in a wave shape at a prescribed fin pitch, the joining parts being such that the distal-end parts of the folded portions are joined to the inner surface of the tube; and non-joining parts (231a, 231b) that are not joined to the inner surface of the tube, the non-joining parts being formed longer than the prescribed fin pitch. In the tube, protruding parts (210a, 211a) are formed on outer wall surfaces (210, 211) facing the non-joining parts.

Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2019-045425 filed on March 13, 2019 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2020-021446 filed on February 12, 2020, and the entire contents of these patent applications are incorporated by reference this manual. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a heat exchanger. Background technique [0004] Conventionally, it is a heat exchanger described in Patent Document 1 below. The heat exchanger described in Patent Document 1 is a condenser and includes a plurality of tubes arranged in layers. A refrigerant flows inside the tube. Air flows in the gaps between adjacent tubes. In this heat exchanger, the refrigerant is condensed by exchanging heat between the refrigerant flowing inside each tube and the air flowing outside each tube. Inner fins are housed inside the tube. The inner fins are formed by bending a thin sheet of metal i...
