Embodiment Construction
[0022]FIG. 1 illustrates a mini-channel heat exchanger generally represented by reference numeral 10. Heat exchanger 10 has an inlet manifold 15 and an outlet manifold 20. Connecting manifolds 15 and 20 are a series or plurality of mini- or micro-channel tubes 25 that form the main body of heat exchanger 10. Each mini- or micro-channel tube 25 is a very narrow tube that with other tubes form the main body of the heat exchanger 10 and transport refrigerant 30 during evaporation.
[0023]Inlet manifold 15 receives a refrigerant 30 that can be either a single or a two-phase refrigerant that flows through mini- or micro-channel tubes 25. Inlet manifold receives multi-expansion device 40 of the present invention. At least one or more multi-expansion devices 40 of the present invention can be inserted into manifold 15 to enhance pressure drop of refrigerant 30 to ensure an even distribution of refrigerant for mini-channel tubes 25. While FIG. 1 shows a single-pass configuration of a heat exc...
