Benefits of technology

The present invention relates to a condenser for vehicles that improves cooling efficiency. The compressor delivers a low temperature, low-voltage gaseous refrigerant that overcools the condensed coolant. The receiver drier unit is integrated with the main heat-discharging unit to simplify the connection pipe layout. The space between the receiver drier unit and the main heat-discharging unit prevents mixing of the coolant, while the reduction of free-volume increases heat dissipation area. Overall, this design improves the performance of the vehicle's cooling system.

Problems solved by technology

Accordingly, cost and weight are increased and a connection pipe is required in addition to a receiver drier.

Abstract

A condenser for vehicles may include a main heat-discharging unit formed with a plurality of first and second flow paths alternately, an overcooling heat-discharging unit disposed on a lower portion of the main heat-discharging unit, and formed with third and fourth flow paths, a receiver drier unit mounted on an upper portion of the overcooling heat-discharging unit to separate the refrigerant that flows through the main heat-discharging unit and the overcooling heat-discharging unit, to filter moisture and foreign materials therefrom and then to supply a filtered refrigerant to the overcooling heat-discharging unit

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]The present application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2012-0114980 filed on Oct. 16, 2012, the entire contents of which is incorporated herein for all purposes by this reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a condenser for a vehicle. More particularly, the present invention relates to a condenser for a vehicle to which a water cooling type is applied, in which a refrigerant is condensed through heat exchange with cooling fluid is applied.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]An air conditioning system includes a compressor to compress a refrigerant, a condenser to condense and liquefy the refrigerant compressed by the compressor, an expansion valve to quickly expand the condensed and liquefied refrigerant by the condenser, and an evaporator to evaporate the refrigerant expanded by the expansion valve.[0006]The condenser is connected to a receiver d...
