Description

[0003] At present, the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger cores on the market are regular cuboids, and the heat transfer performance of the aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger largely depends on the size of the heat exchanger core. With the integrated and modular development of heat exchange systems in various application fields, in the heat exchange system, the space allocated to the heat exchanger is becoming increasingly tight and the shape is becoming more and more irregular. Using a regular cuboid heat exchanger core, on the one hand, a relatively large space is required to meet the heat transfer resistance performance index, and on the other hand, in the limited irregular space, it is impossible to fully utilize the given space to arrange the heat exchanger core. Therefore, the regular cuboid heat exchanger core has gradually been unable to meet the heat exchange requirements of the increasingly compact heat exchange system. Summary of the Invention

[0041] To make the objectives, contents, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following further describes in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0042] The exploded view of the structure of a traditional aluminum plate-fin heat exchanger core body is as shown in Figure 1 FIG.. Taking one direction, i.e., direction A, as the flow direction of one heat transfer medium, and taking another direction perpendicular to direction A on the horizontal plane, i.e., direction B, as the flow direction of another heat transfer medium. The rectangular surface perpendicular to direction A is defined as the core body plane A, and the rectangular surface of the core body perpendicular to direction B is defined as the core body plane B. Its structure includes 2 layers of flow channels on the A side and 1 layer of flow channels on the B side. Fins are distributed in the flow channels (part number 004 in the figure is the fin on the A side, and part number 006 in the figure is the fin on the B side). The fins are parts formed by stamping aluminum foil, and the cross-section is a waveform with periodic changes. There are seals on both sides of the fins (part number 003 in the figure is the seal on the A side, and part number 005 in the figure is the seal on the B side). The seals are columns with a rectangular or polygonal cross-section. The flow directions of the flow channels on the A and B sides are orthogonally arranged, and the two flow channels are separated by a partition (part number in the figure is 002). The partition is an aluminum thin plate, and there is brazing flux on both sides, which is used to isolate the heat transfer media on both sides and play a role in welding the parts on both sides. The fins and seals are welded to the partition by the brazing process. There is a layer of partition outside each of the A-side channels at both ends. The partition brazes the side guards (part number in the figure is 001) at the upper and lower ends to the flow channels. The side guards are aluminum plates with a certain thickness and play a protective role. This structure cannot meet the heat transfer requirements of increasingly compact heat exchange systems.

[0043] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a special-shaped heat exchanger core workpiece, as Figure 3 shown. Define a direction on the horizontal plane, i.e., the A direction, as the flow direction of one heat transfer medium, and another direction perpendicular to the A direction on the horizontal plane, i.e., the B direction, as the flow direction of another heat transfer medium; define the rectangular surface perpendicular to the A direction as the core A surface, and the core rectangular surface perpendicular to the B direction as the core B surface;

[0047] For each layer of B-side flow channels in the N layers of B-side flow channels, it includes: one B-side fin and two B-side seals; wherein, in the horizontal direction, the two B-side seals are placed at both ends of the B-side fin in the A direction;

[0048] The M layers of A-side flow channels and the N layers of B-side flow channels are arranged staggered in the vertical direction, that is, the first layer of A-side flow channels is at the bottom layer, the first partition is arranged below it, and the first layer of B-side flow channels is isolated and arranged above it through the second partition;

[0049] For the first layer of B-side flow channels, the second partition is arranged below it, and the second layer of A-side flow channels is isolated and arranged above it through the third partition;

[0050] For the second layer of A-side flow channels, the third partition is arranged below it, and the second layer of B-side flow channels is isolated and arranged above it through the fourth partition;

[0051] For the second layer of B-side flow channels, the fourth partition is arranged below it, and the third layer of A-side flow channels is isolated and arranged above it through the fifth partition;

[0052] And so on, until the Nth layer of B-side flow channels, the 2M - 2nd partition is arranged below it, and the Mth layer of A-side flow channels is isolated and arranged above it through the 2M - 1st partition;

[0053] Finally, the Mth layer of the A-side flow channel is provided with the 2Mth partition board;

[0056] Thus, through the setting of the obliquely continuous positions of the A-side middle seals, a cutting route in the core manufacturing work is formed, that is, the cutting process is continuously cut along the continuous route of multiple A-side middle seals.

[0057] Among them, the partition board brazes the side guard plates at the upper and lower ends to the flow channel.

[0067] Step 3: After draining the water from the cleaned core parts, dry them to remove the surface water stains;

[0068] Step 4: Conduct core assembly. Stack the parts layer by layer. The position of the seal on the A side depends on the shape of the designed core. After assembly, press and fix it.

[0069] Step 5: Place the press-fixed cuboid core into a vacuum brazing furnace for brazing. After taking it out of the furnace and cooling, correct its outer shape.

[0070] Step 6: Mark lines on the seal on the A side according to the polygonal cross-section of the designed core, and cut the core along the marked trajectory perpendicular to the A plane. A fast wire cutting machine can be used for cutting.

The machined parts required are 2 side guards, 18 partitions, 18 A-side seals, 2 full-size A-side fins, 14 non-full-size A-side fins, 16 B-side seals, 8 B-side fins, and 7 A-side middle seals; Step 2: Clean the machined core parts to remove oil stains and dirt; Step 3: After draining the water from the cleaned core parts, dry them to remove the water stains on the surface; Step 4: Assemble the core. Stack the parts layer by layer. The position of the A-side middle seal depends on the shape of the designed core. After assembly, press and fix; Step 5: Place the press-fixed cuboid core into a vacuum brazing furnace for brazing. After the furnace is removed and cooled, correct the outer shape; Step 6: Mark lines on the A-side middle seal according to the polygonal cross-section of the designed core, and cut the core along the marked line trajectory perpendicular to the A surface to form the shape.
