The coolant flows into the heat exchanger 100 from the third channel 103, first flows on the first side 15 of the second plate 2, then flows around the second rib 22 to the second side 16 of the second plate 2, and flows out of the heat exchanger 100 from the fourth channel 104. The coolant flows around the second rib 22 in a U-shaped line. The setting of the second rib 22 can make the coolant have two flow sections, which can increase the flow path of the coolant and improve the heat exchange effect of the coolant and the refrigerant. In addition, the setting of the second rib 22 makes the third channel 103 and the fourth channel 104 located on the same side of the width of the heat exchanger 100, which is convenient for the heat exchanger 100 to cooperate with other components.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first rib 14 is arranged along the F1 direction of the first plate 1, one end of the first rib 14 is connected to the flange 4 near the first end 51, the other end of the first rib 14 is not connected to the flange 4 near the second end 52, and there is a gap between the other end of the first rib 14 and the flange 4 near the second end 52 for the flow of the refrigerant. In this embodiment, along the F2 direction of the plate 5, the first plate 1 includes a first side 15 and a second side 16, the first rib 14 is located between the first side 15 and the second side 16, and the first side 15 and the second side 16 are located on the first plate surface 31.

The second rib 22 is located between the third side 23 and the fourth side 24 .

[0035] Combination Figure 5-Figure 14In this embodiment, the first rib 14 is serrated. The first rib 14 includes a first portion 142 and a second portion 143, which are alternately arranged along the F1 direction of the first rib 14, and adjacent first portions 142 and second portions 143 are connected. The first portion 142 and the second portion 143 are arranged at an angle, and the angle between the first portion 142 and the second portion 143 faces the F1 direction of the heat exchanger. Define the F direction and the E direction, the first portion extends along the F direction, the second portion extends along the E direction, and the F direction and the E direction are arranged at an angle α1. The first portion 142 and the adjacent second portion 143 form a first recess (not shown in the figure), the first recess protrudes toward the first side 15 of the first plate 1, and the first recess protrudes toward the second side 16 of the first plate 1. When the refrigerant flows in from the first channel 101 and flows around the first rib 14 to the second channel, the refrigerant near the two sides of the first rib 14 flows along the first recess, increasing the flow resistance near the two sides of the first rib 14 and reducing the distribution of the refrigerant on the two sides of the first rib 14, thereby reducing the flow distribution of the refrigerant on the two sides of the first rib 14, and more refrigerant flows toward the area away from the two sides of the first rib 14, so that the distribution of the refrigerant in the first inter-plate channel S1 is more uniform, and the flow resistance in the area away from the two sides of the first rib 14 is small, which is conducive to improving the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger. In addition, the serrated first rib 14 can disturb the refrigerant on both sides of the first rib 14, and the heat exchange effect is enhanced. The connection between the first portion 142 and the second portion 143 is bent. In this embodiment, the connection between the first portion 142 and the second portion 143 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped setting can reduce the flow resistance flowing into both sides of the first rib 14 and improve the heat exchange effect. In other embodiments, the connection between the first portion 142 and the second portion 143 can also be tapered.

[0036] In this embodiment, the second rib 22 is also serrated, and the second rib 22 and the first rib 14 are arranged roughly in parallel. The second rib 22 includes a third portion 222 and a fourth portion 223, and the third portion 222 and the fourth portion 223 are alternately arranged along the F1 direction of the second rib 22, and the adjacent third portions 222 and the fourth portions 223 are connected. The third portion 222 and the fourth portion 223 are arranged at an angle, and the angle between the third portion 222 and the fourth portion 223 faces the F1 direction of the heat exchanger. The third portion 222 and the adjacent fourth portion 223 form a second recess (not shown in the figure), and the second recess protrudes toward the fourth side of the second plate, and the second recess is recessed toward the third side 23 of the second plate 2. The first portion 142 and the third portion 222 are arranged roughly in parallel, and the second portion 143 and the fourth portion 223 are arranged roughly in parallel. When the coolant flows in from the third channel 103 and flows around the second rib 22 to the fourth channel, the coolant near the two sides of the second rib 22 flows along the second recess, which increases the flow resistance of the flow path near the two sides of the second rib 22, reduces the distribution of the coolant on both sides of the second rib 22, and makes the distribution of the coolant in the second inter-plate channel S2 more uniform, which is beneficial to improving the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger. In addition, the serrated second rib 22 can disturb the coolant on both sides of the second rib 22, and the heat exchange effect is enhanced. The connection between the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 is bent. In this embodiment, the connection between the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 is arc-shaped, which can reduce the flow resistance of the coolant flowing into the two sides of the second rib 22 and improve the heat exchange effect. In other embodiments, the connection between the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 can also be conical.

In this embodiment, the first part 142 and the second part 143 form an angle greater than or equal to 90°, and the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 form an angle greater than or equal to 90°. The first part 142 and the second part 143 are connected, and the first rib 14 forms a zigzag shape, which increases the flow resistance of the refrigerant near the first rib 14, avoids too much refrigerant flowing through here, thereby extending the flow path of the refrigerant and improving the heat exchange effect. The third part 222 and the fourth part 223 are connected, and the second rib 22 forms a zigzag shape, which increases the flow resistance of the coolant near the second rib 22, avoids too much coolant flowing through here, thereby extending the flow path of the coolant and improving the heat exchange effect.

[0038] The connection between the first part 142 and the second part 143 is arc-shaped, and the connection between the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped setting can improve the heat exchange effect between the refrigerant and the coolant, wherein the arc can be a circular arc or other arcs.

[0039] In other embodiments, the included angle between the first portion 142 and the second portion 143 may also be an acute angle less than 90 degrees, and the included angle between the third portion 222 and the fourth portion 223 may also be an acute angle less than 90 degrees.

[0040] In another embodiment, the first portion 142, the second portion 143, the third portion 222 and the fourth portion 223 are all arc-shaped structures, the first recessed portion and the second recessed portion are also arc-shaped, the first portion 142 and the third portion 222 are arranged roughly in parallel, and the second portion 143 and the fourth portion 223 are arranged roughly in parallel, so that the distribution of the refrigerant and the coolant can be more uniform, and the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger can be improved. Among them, the arc-shaped structure can be a circular arc or other arcs, so that the first rib portion 14 and the second rib portion 22 form a winding shape.

[0041] In another embodiment, the first part 142 is an arc-shaped structure, the second part 143 is a straight structure, the third part 222 is an arc-shaped structure, and the fourth part 223 is a straight structure. The first part 142 and the third part 222 are arranged roughly in parallel, and the second part 143 and the fourth part 223 are arranged roughly in parallel. This can also make the distribution of the refrigerant and the coolant more uniform, thereby improving the heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger.

[0042] In other embodiments, the first rib 14 may also be in a curved wave shape, and the second rib 22 may also be in a curved wave shape.

The second groove 122 is located in the first low section 13. The first substrate 35 refers to the first plate 1 before being stamped, and the second substrate 36 refers to the second plate 2 before being stamped.

[0045] In this embodiment, the second plate 2 includes a plurality of recesses 21, the recesses 21 protrude away from the first plate 1 relative to the first substrate 35 of the second plate 2, the second plate 2 includes the recesses 21, the recesses 21 include the grooves 211, and the recesses 21 have the grooves 211 on the side facing the first plate 1. In this embodiment, the second plate 2 includes the second substrate 36, the recesses 21 are recessed in the direction away from the first plate 1 relative to the second substrate 36, the recesses 21 are recessed in the direction away from the first substrate 35 relative to the second substrate 36, and along the height direction of the heat exchanger 100, the recesses 21 and the first high-level section 12 are staggered, and the staggered setting means that the projections of the first high-level section 12 and the recesses 21 on the plate surface of the first plate 1 do not overlap.

The connection method of the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 is simple, and the molding process of the heat exchanger 100 is simple. In addition, fins are usually set between adjacent plates 5 to enhance the heat exchange area to improve the heat exchange effect. In this embodiment, no fins are set between adjacent plates 5.

In other embodiments, the recess 21 and the first high section 12 may be partially staggered, and the staggered setting means that the projections of the first high section 12 and the recess 21 on the plate surface of the first plate 1 overlap.

[0047] The first plate 1 includes a plurality of first protrusions 11 . The first protrusions 11 protrude relative to the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1 toward the second plate 2 on an adjacent side. The first protrusions 11 protrude upward.

[0048] Multiple first protrusions 11 are arranged in an array along the E direction and the F direction. The arrangement direction of the first protrusions 11 is consistent with the extension direction of the first portion 142 of the first rib 14, and the arrangement direction of the first protrusions 11 is consistent with the extension direction of the second portion 143 of the first rib 14. In this way, the gap between the two sides of the first rib 14 and the first protrusion 11 is narrower, thereby reducing the flow distribution of the fluid on both sides of the first rib 14, allowing more refrigerant to flow into the area of ​​the plate 5 where the first protrusions 11 are set, which is beneficial to improving heat exchange.

[0049] In this embodiment, the E direction intersects with the second direction F, and an angle α1 is formed between the E direction and the F direction, α1 is directed toward the F1 direction of the heat exchanger, and α1 is less than 90 degrees.

[0050] In this embodiment, there is a first low segment 13 between two adjacent first high segments 12. One end of the first low segment 13 is connected to the first high segment 12, and the other end of the first low segment 13 is connected to the first high segment 12. In this embodiment, along the F direction, two adjacent first convex portions 11 share one first high segment 12.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first high section 12 is located on the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1, and the first high section 12 protrudes upward relative to the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1. The first low section 13 is located on the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1, and the first low section 13 protrudes upward relative to the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1. In this embodiment, the minimum height of the first low section 13 from the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1 is less than the maximum height of the first high section 12 from the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1. Along the F direction, there is a second groove 122 between two adjacent first high sections 12. Along the E direction, there is a second groove 122 between two adjacent first high sections 12, and the second groove 122 is formed by the first low section 13. In this embodiment, along the F direction, the first high section 12 and the first low section 13 are alternately arranged, and the first high section 12 and the first low section 13 are connected together. The first high section 12 and the first low section 13 are both relatively raised structures. In this way, the raised structures are arranged more densely, which can increase the flow path of the refrigerant, increase the heat exchange area of ​​the refrigerant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant and the coolant.

[0052] In other embodiments, one or more groups of two adjacent first high-level segments 12 may not have a first low-level segment 13 between them, and the two adjacent first high-level segments 12 in the group may be connected by a first plate surface 31 , and there may be a gap between the adjacent first high-level segments 12 in the group.

[0053] In other embodiments, along the F direction, there may be two or more first low segments 13 between two adjacent first high segments 12 , and along the E direction, there may be two or more first low segments 13 between two adjacent first high segments 12 .

[0054] Combination Figure 5-Figure 14 , along the F direction and along the E direction, the first low-level segment 13 includes a trough 131, a first side wall 132 and a second side wall 133, one end of the first side wall 132 is connected to the first top 121 of the adjacent first high-level segment 12, the other end of the first side wall 132 is connected to the trough 131, one end of the second side wall 133 is connected to the trough 131, the other end of the second side wall 133 is connected to the first top 121 of the adjacent first high-level segment 12, and the trough 131 is located between the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133. In this embodiment, the distance between the trough 131 and the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1 is H1, and H1 is less than H2. When the first high-level segment 12 is provided on the first plate 1 and the first low-level segment 13 is not provided, when the first high-level segment 12 is provided relatively sparsely, the heat exchange effect between the refrigerant and the coolant is not good, and when the first high-level segment 12 is provided too densely, the first plate 1 is easy to be thinned, and the first plate 1 is difficult to form. In the present application, the first low-level segment 13 is connected to the adjacent first high-level segment 12. The first low-level segment 13 is arranged to be raised relative to the plate surface of the first plate 1. The plate 5 will not be too thin, and the plate 5 is easy to shape. The arrangement of the first low-level segment 13 can make the first high-level segment 12 arranged more densely, increase the flow path of the refrigerant, increase the heat exchange area between the refrigerant and the coolant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger; in addition, along the F direction, there is a second groove 122 between the two adjacent first high-level segments 12, and along the E direction, there is a second groove 122 between the two adjacent first high-level segments 12. The second groove 122 is located in the first low-level segment 13. The first high-level section 12 and the first low-level section 13 have a height difference. The setting of the first low-level section 13 increases the curved surface area of ​​the first plate 1, which can increase the heat exchange area between the refrigerant and the coolant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100.

[0055] In this embodiment, along the F direction, the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133 are symmetrically arranged relative to the trough 131, along the E direction, the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133 are symmetrically arranged relative to the trough 131, and the two adjacent first high-level sections 12 are symmetrically arranged relative to the trough 131, so that the structure of the first plate 1 is regular, which is convenient for controlling the flow direction of the refrigerant and also convenient for welding the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. In other embodiments, the first side wall 132 and the second side wall 133 can also be asymmetrically arranged relative to the trough 131, and the two adjacent first high-level sections 12 can also be asymmetrically arranged relative to the trough 131.

[0056] In this embodiment, the concave portion 21 of the second plate 2 is located on the third plate surface 33, and the concave portion 21 protrudes toward the first plate 1 on the adjacent side relative to the third plate surface 33 of the second plate 2, and the protruding direction of the concave portion 21 is consistent with the protruding direction of the first high-level section 12. There is a first groove 212 between adjacent concave portions 21, and the concave portion 21 has a groove 211 toward the first plate 1 on the other adjacent side.

[0057] In this embodiment, a plurality of recesses 21 are arranged along the F direction, and the recesses 21 are arranged in a plurality of lines along the F direction. Along the F direction, the recesses 21 are arranged in parallel with the first convex portion 11. A plurality of recesses 21 are also arranged along the E direction, and the recesses 21 are arranged in a plurality of lines along the E direction, and the recesses 21 are arranged in parallel with the first convex portion 11 along the E direction. The recesses 21 are arranged in parallel with the first high-level section 12, which facilitates the welding of the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. The height of the recess 21 from the third plate surface of the second plate 2 is equal to the height of the first high-level section 12 from the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1. In other embodiments, the height of the recess 21 from the third plate surface of the second plate 2 may also be greater than or less than the height of the first high-level section 12 from the first plate surface 31 of the first plate 1.

[0058] In this embodiment, two adjacent plates 5 are welded and fixed, and the first top 121 of the concave portion 21 and the third plate surface 33 of the second plate 2 are welded and fixed. In this embodiment, the concave portion 21 and the first convex portion 11 are arranged in parallel and staggered along the F direction, and the concave portion 21 and the first convex portion 11 are arranged in parallel and staggered along the E direction. Parallel arrangement and staggered arrangement means that along the F direction, the projections of the first high section 12 and the concave portion 21 on the first plate surface 31 do not overlap and are parallel, and along the E direction, the projections of the first high section 12 and the concave portion 21 on the first plate surface 31 do not overlap and are parallel. Along the height direction of the heat exchanger, the concave portion 21 and the first base plate 35 are arranged relative to each other, and the presence of the groove 211 of the concave portion 21 is conducive to strengthening the boiling heat transfer of the refrigerant and improving the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant and the coolant. In this embodiment, the top of the first high section 12 is a plane structure, which is conducive to increasing the welding surface with the second plate 2 on the adjacent side and enhancing the welding strength of the heat exchanger. In other embodiments, the first top 121 can also be an arc structure. In other embodiments, the concave portion 21 and the first convex portion 11 may also be arranged in parallel and partially staggered, and the parallel arrangement and partially staggered arrangement means that along the F direction, the projections of the first high section 12 and the concave portion 21 on the first plate surface 31 overlap and are parallel. In this way, the heat exchanger can also have a better heat exchange effect.

[0059] In other embodiments, part of the recess 21 may be arranged along the F direction. In other embodiments, the recess 21 may not be arranged along the F direction, the recess 21 and the first convex portion 11 are not arranged in parallel, and the recess 21 and the first substrate 35 are partially aligned along the height direction of the heat exchanger. In other embodiments, part of the recess 21 may be arranged along the E direction. In other embodiments, the recess 21 may not be arranged along the E direction, the recess 21 and the first convex portion 11 are not arranged in parallel, and part of the recess 21 and the first substrate 35 are partially aligned along the height direction of the heat exchanger.

[0060] The recess 21 has a groove 211 on the second plate 2 facing the other adjacent side. The groove 211 is a part of the refrigerant flow channel. The refrigerant exchanges heat with the coolant. The existence of the groove 211 is beneficial to strengthen the boiling heat transfer of the refrigerant and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100. In addition, when the first plate 1 is only provided with the first high section 121 and the first plate 1 does not have the first low section 13, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 have similar structures, and the convex structure on the first plate 1 is relatively sparse. In the present application, the first high section 12 and the first low section 13 form a dense convex structure, and the recess and the dense convex structure match, which can better improve the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant and the coolant.

[0061] In this embodiment, along the F direction, adjacent first high-level sections 121 have a second groove 122, and along the E direction, two adjacent first high-level sections 121 have a second groove 122. Along the height direction of the heat exchanger, the groove 211 and the first substrate 35 are aligned to form a first space S11 between the wall of the groove 211 and the first substrate 35, which is part of the first inter-plate channel S1. Along the E direction and the F direction, there is a second groove 122 between two adjacent first high sections 12, and the second groove 122 is formed by the first low section 13. The height of the recess 21 from the third plate surface 33 is equal to the height of the first high section 12 from the first plate surface 31, and the height of the first low section 13 from the first plate surface 31 is less than the height of the first high section 12 from the first plate surface 31. The height of the first low section 13 is less than the height of the recess 21. A second space S12 is formed between the first low section 13 and the second substrate 36, and the width of the second space S12 is less than the width of the first space S11. The refrigerant flows from the second space S12 to the first space S11, and then to the second space S12. The width of the refrigerant flow channel changes from narrow to wide and then from wide to narrow, which can further assist the transport of bubbles after the refrigerant "nucleates" and promote boiling enhanced heat exchange. In addition, the setting of the first high-position section 12 increases the area of ​​the first plate 1, and the setting of the recess 21 increases the area of ​​the second plate 2. The first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are used for heat transfer between the refrigerant and the coolant, which increases the heat transfer area of ​​the refrigerant and the coolant, and can further improve the heat exchange of the refrigerant and the coolant.

[0062] In addition, there is a first low section 13 between adjacent first high sections 12, and the first low section 13 protrudes relative to the first plate 1 toward the second plate 2 on the adjacent side, so that the distance between the first low section 13 and the second plate 2 on the adjacent side is small, so that the structure of the heat exchanger 100 is relatively compact; when the first plate 1 does not have the first low section 13, along the F direction, the depth of the second groove 122 between the two adjacent first high sections 12 is the height H2 of the first top 121 of the first high section 12 from the first plate surface 31, and when the first plate 1 has the first low section 13, the depth of the second groove 122 between the two adjacent first high sections 12 is the height H1 of the trough 131 of the first low section 13 from the first plate surface 31, H1 is smaller than H2, and the setting of the first low section 13 makes the flow space width of the refrigerant formed by the alignment of the second groove 122 and the second base plate 36 smaller, so that the refrigerant can have a higher pressure drop, the flow rate of the refrigerant is fast, and it is beneficial to enhance the heat exchange of the refrigerant. The first high-level section 12 and the recess 21 have different structures. The first high-level section 12 of the first plate 1 and the recess 21 of the second plate 2 on the adjacent side have a high degree of asymmetry, which is beneficial to increase the turbulence degree and boiling nucleation state of the refrigerant, thereby achieving high heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger 100.

[0063] In addition, in order to improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger, fins are usually arranged between the plates 5. The flow channels formed by the fins are difficult to clean. In the present application, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are stamped structures, and the heat exchanger 100 is easy to clean.

[0064] Combination Figure 4-Figure 6 In this embodiment, the first plate 1 further includes a third protrusion 37 , which protrudes away from the second plate 2 relative to the first plate surface 31 and the first substrate 35 , and includes a second high section 17 and a second low section 18 .

[0065] The second low section 18 is recessed toward the first plate 1 relative to the second substrate 36 . Along the vertical direction with the second substrate 36 , the second high section 17 is closer to the second plate 2 than the first low section 13 . The second high section 17 includes a second top 171 , and the second top 171 is flush with the second plate surface 32 .

[0066] In this embodiment, the second high segment 17 and the second low segment 18 are arranged along the F direction, and the second high segment 17 and the second low segment 18 are arranged along the E direction. In this embodiment, along the F direction, there is a second low segment 18 between two adjacent second low segments 18, one end of the second low segment 18 is connected to an adjacent second high segment 17, and the other end of the second low segment 18 is connected to another adjacent second high segment 17. In this embodiment, along the E direction, there is a second low segment 18 between two adjacent second low segments 18, one end of the second low segment 18 is connected to an adjacent second high segment 17, and the other end of the second low segment 18 is connected to another adjacent second high segment 17, and there is a second groove 122 between adjacent second high segments 17, and the second groove 122 is located in the second low segment 18. In this embodiment, the structure of the second high segment 17 is substantially the same as that of the first high segment 12, and the structure of the second low segment 18 is substantially the same as that of the first low segment 13. Substantially the same includes identical and similar, and substantially the same refers to substantially identical size and shape. In other embodiments, the structure of the second high segment 17 may be different from that of the first high segment 12. In other embodiments, part of the second high segment 17 and the second low segment 18 may be arranged along the F direction, and part of the second high segment 17 and the second low segment 18 may be arranged along the E direction.

[0067] The first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are fixedly connected, and a second inter-plate channel s2 is provided between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 on the other adjacent side. In this embodiment, the second high-level section 17 of the first plate 1 and the recess 21 of the second plate 2 on the other adjacent side are welded and fixed. In this embodiment, the second high-level section 17 includes a second top 171, and the recess 21 includes a third top 213, and the second top 171 and the third top 213 are in contact and welded. In this embodiment, the third top 213 is a planar structure, and the second top 171 is also a planar structure, which is conducive to increasing the welding surface of the third top 213 and the second top 171, and enhancing the welding strength of the heat exchanger. In other embodiments, the third top 213 can also be an arc-shaped structure, and the second top 171 can also be an arc-shaped structure, etc.

[0068] There is a first groove 212 between adjacent recesses 21, and there is a third groove 172 between adjacent second high-level sections 17. The third groove 172 is located in the second low-level section 18. Along the height direction of the heat exchanger, part of the first groove 212 and the first substrate 35 are arranged opposite to each other, forming a part of the second inter-plate channel s2 between the wall of the first groove 212 and the first substrate 35. Part of the first groove 212 and the third groove 172 are arranged in alignment, and part of the first groove 212 and the third groove 172 are aligned to form a part of the second inter-plate channel s2. The depth of the first groove 212 is consistent with the height of the recess 21. The space formed by the first groove 212 and the third groove 172 is relatively large, which provides a larger flow space for the flow of the coolant, so that the coolant has a lower pressure drop and a lower flow rate of the coolant, which can improve the heat exchange effect of the coolant and the refrigerant. The second high-level section 17 and the second low-level section 18 form a dense convex structure, which increases the heat exchange area of ​​the coolant and can further improve the heat exchange effect of the coolant and the refrigerant. In other embodiments, the second high section 17 and the recessed portion 21 may also be fixed by bonding.

[0069] Combination Figure 6-Figure 10 , the angle α1 between the F and E directions can be 15°~75°, α1 is the first distribution angle of the first high section 12, α1 is also the first distribution angle of the first low section 13, α1 can be 15°~75°. In this embodiment, the angle α1 between the F and E directions is 20°~35°, including 20°~35, relative to α1 is other values, when 20°~35, the first high section 12 can be set relatively densely, which is beneficial to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant and the coolant. In this embodiment, the first distribution angle of the second high section 17 is consistent with the first distribution angle of the first high section 12, and the distribution angle of the second low section 18 is also consistent with the first distribution angle of the first low section 13, which is beneficial to improve the density of the protruding structure, increase the heat exchange area of ​​the coolant, increase the heat exchange area of ​​the coolant and the refrigerant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100. In other embodiments, the first distribution angle of the second high segment 17 may be inconsistent with the first distribution angle of the first high segment 12 , and the first distribution angle of the second low segment 18 may be inconsistent with the first distribution angle of the first low segment 13 .

[0070] α1 is the second distribution angle of the first high-level segment 12, and α1 is also the second distribution angle of the first low-level segment 13, so that the protrusion structure can be arranged relatively densely, which is beneficial to improving the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant and the coolant. In this embodiment, the second distribution angle of the second high-level segment 17 is consistent with the second distribution angle of the first high-level segment 12, and the distribution angle of the second low-level segment 18 is also consistent with the second distribution angle of the first low-level segment 13, which is beneficial to improve the density of the protrusion structure, increase the heat exchange area of ​​the coolant, increase the heat exchange area of ​​the coolant and the refrigerant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100.

[0071] The recesses 21 are arranged in a line along the F direction, and the first distribution angle of the recesses 21 is also α1, and α1 is 20° to 35°, including 20° to 35. The recesses 21 can be arranged relatively densely, which is beneficial to increase the density of the recesses 21, increase the boiling heat transfer effect of the refrigerant, improve the heat exchange efficiency of the refrigerant and the coolant, and improve the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100.

[0072] In another embodiment, along the F direction, there is no second low section 18 between the second high sections 17, the second high sections 17 are convexly arranged downward relative to the second base plate 36 of the second plate 2, and a third groove 172 is provided between two adjacent second high sections 17. The second top 171 of the second high section 17 and the third top 213 of the concave portion 21 are in contact and fixed by welding, so that the boiling heat transfer of the refrigerant can be enhanced and better heat exchange between the refrigerant and the coolant can be achieved.

[0073] In this embodiment, along the F2 direction of the plate 5, the width of the third side 23 is equal to the width of the fourth side 24, so that the coolant can have a suitable pressure drop and a suitable flow rate, and the coolant can effectively exchange heat with the refrigerant.

[0074] In this embodiment, along the F2 direction of the plate 5, the width of the first side 15 is smaller than the width of the second side 16. In this embodiment, the first side 15 is close to the inlet channel of the refrigerant, and the first side 15 is the first process section of the refrigerant. The second side 16 is close to the outlet channel of the refrigerant, and the second side 16 is the second process section of the refrigerant. When the refrigerant enters the heat exchanger 100, the dryness is low, and the heat exchange effect between the refrigerant and the coolant is good. After the refrigerant works for a period of time, the temperature of the refrigerant increases, and the dryness of the refrigerant becomes higher. The wider flow channel of the second side 16 is conducive to the flow of the refrigerant, controls the refrigerant to have a higher pressure drop, and reduces the heat exchange performance degradation caused by the enthalpy loss of the refrigerant. In other embodiments, the width of the first side 15 can also be equal to or greater than the width of the second side 16.

[0075] In this embodiment, along the F2 direction of the plate 5, the width of the third side 23 is equal to the width of the fourth side 24, so that the coolant can have a suitable pressure drop and a suitable flow rate, and the coolant can effectively exchange heat with the refrigerant.

[0076] Along the F2 direction of the plate 5, the first rib 14 is offset, the second rib 22 is centered, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are welded and fixed, the top of the first rib 14 and the fourth plate surface 34 of the second plate 2 on the adjacent side are welded and fixed, and the top of the second rib 22 and the second plate surface 32 of the first plate 1 on the adjacent side are welded and fixed. Along the F2 direction of the heat exchanger, the first rib 14 is close to the third side 23 of the second plate 2, the second rib 22 is close to the second side 16 of the first plate 1, and the second groove 221 is close to the second flow section of the refrigerant. The dryness of the refrigerant in the second flow section is high, and the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant is poor. The second groove 221 is part of the refrigerant flow channel, and the flow of the refrigerant in the second groove 221 is blocked. Placing the second groove 221 close to the second flow section of the refrigerant is conducive to reducing the influence of the second groove 221 on the heat exchange effect of the refrigerant. In this embodiment, the first rib 14 and the second rib 22 have the same height. Along the height direction of the heat exchanger, the first side wall 144 of the first rib 14 and the second side wall 224 of the second rib 22 are aligned, which is conducive to reducing the gap between the first rib 14 and the second rib 22, reducing the refrigerant flowing into the gap between the first rib 14 and the second rib 22, and improving the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100. In addition, the gap between the first rib 14 and the second rib 22 is located in the second flow section of the refrigerant, which is conducive to preventing the pressure drop of the refrigerant from being low. In other embodiments, the width of the third side 23 and the width of the fourth side 24 may also be different.

[0077] In other embodiments, the first plate 1 may be provided with the first rib 14, and the second plate 2 may not be provided with the second rib 22; or, the first plate 1 may not be provided with the first rib 14, and the second plate 2 may be provided with the second rib 22, which may also improve the heat exchange effect between the refrigerant and the coolant.

[0078] In this embodiment, along the F1 direction of the heat exchanger 100, the first channel 101 and the third channel 103 are located on the same side of the heat exchanger 100, and the second channel 102 and the fourth channel 104 are located on the same side of the heat exchanger 100, so that the flow directions of the refrigerant and the coolant are opposite, and the refrigerant and the coolant are countercurrent, which is conducive to improving the heat exchange effect of the two. In other embodiments, along the F1 direction of the heat exchanger 100, the first channel 101 and the fourth channel 104 can also be located on the same side of the heat exchanger 100, and the second channel 102 and the third channel 103 can be located on the same side of the heat exchanger 100, so that heat exchange between the refrigerant and the coolant can also be achieved.

[0079] The first plate 1 includes a first protrusion 11, which protrudes toward the second plate 2, and the first protrusion 11 is arranged along the F direction. Part of the first rib 14 extends parallel to the F direction, that is, the extension direction of part of the first rib 14 is consistent with the arrangement direction of the first protrusion 11, so that the flow path of the refrigerant near both sides of the first rib 14 can be consistent with the flow path between the first protrusions 11, which is beneficial to reducing the resistance of the refrigerant flow, making the refrigerant flow smoother, and making the refrigerant and the coolant have a higher heat exchange effect.

[0080] In this embodiment, the first portion 142 extends in a direction parallel to the F direction, that is, the extension direction of the first portion 142 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the first convex portion 11, and the second portion 143 extends in a direction parallel to the E direction, that is, the extension direction of the second portion 143 is also parallel to the arrangement direction of the first convex portion 11. This arrangement can make the shape of the first rib 14 consistent with the flow direction of the refrigerant, avoid the first rib 14 blocking the flow of the refrigerant, reduce the flow resistance of the refrigerant flow, make the refrigerant flow smoother, and make the refrigerant and the coolant have a higher heat exchange effect. Moreover, the extension direction of the first portion 142 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the first convex portion 11, and the extension direction of the second portion 143 is parallel to the arrangement direction of the first convex portion 11. This can reduce the gap between the first rib 14 and the first convex portion 11, making the channels on both sides of the first rib 14 narrower, thereby reducing the flow distribution of the refrigerant on both sides of the first rib 14, allowing more refrigerant to flow into the area where the first convex portion 1 is set, which is conducive to improving heat exchange. In this embodiment, the second rib 22 is also in a Z-shaped wave shape. The second rib 22 includes a third part 222 and a fourth part 223. The third part 222 extends in a direction parallel to the F direction, and the fourth part 223 extends in a direction parallel to the E direction. This arrangement can make the shape of the second rib 22 consistent with the flow direction of the coolant, avoid the second rib 22 blocking the flow of the coolant, reduce the flow resistance of the coolant flow, make the coolant flow smoother, and improve the heat exchange effect between the coolant and the refrigerant. In this way, the channels on both sides of the second rib 22 can be made narrower, thereby reducing the flow distribution of the coolant on both sides of the second rib 22, allowing more coolant to flow into the area where the recess 21 is set, which is conducive to improving heat exchange.

[0081] In this embodiment, the angle between the F direction and the E direction is α1, and α1 is 15° to 75°, so that the first protrusion 11 and the recess 21 can be arranged more densely, which is conducive to increasing the heat exchange area between the refrigerant and the coolant and improving the heat exchange effect. In this embodiment, α1 is 20° to 35°, so that the first protrusion 11 and the recess 21 can be arranged more densely, and the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger 100 is better; in addition, the first part 142 and the third part 222 extend along the E direction, and the second part 143 and the fourth part 223 extend along the F direction. Such an angle setting is conducive to making the first rib 14 and the second rib 22 form a more winding shape, increasing the flow resistance of the refrigerant near the first rib 14, avoiding excessive refrigerant from flowing there, thereby extending the flow path of the refrigerant, improving the heat exchange effect, and increasing the flow resistance of the coolant near the second rib 22, extending the flow path of the coolant, and improving the heat exchange effect.

[0082] In other embodiments, the first portion 142 may extend in a direction parallel to the F direction, the second portion 143 may not extend in a direction parallel to the E direction, the third portion 222 may be arranged in conjunction with the first portion 142 , and the fourth portion 223 may be arranged in conjunction with the second portion 143 . For example, the first part 142, the second part 143, the third part 222 and the fourth part 223 are all straight structures, and the first part 142 and the third part 222 extend in a direction parallel to the F direction, that is, the arrangement direction of the first part 142, the third part 222 and the first convex part 11 is consistent, and the second part 143 and the fourth part 223 do not extend in a direction parallel to the E direction, that is, the arrangement direction of the second part 143 and the first convex part 11 are inconsistent, and the arrangement direction of the fourth part 223 and the first convex part 11 are inconsistent; or, the second part 143 is an arc-shaped structure, the first part 142 is a straight structure, the fourth part 223 is an arc-shaped structure, and the third part 222 is a straight structure. The first part 142 and the third part 222 extend in a direction parallel to the F direction, and the second part 143 and the fourth part 223 do not extend in a direction parallel to the E direction.

[0083] When the height of the first high-position section 12 is different from the height of the recess 21, the height H2 of the first top 121 from the plate surface of the plate 5 is less than the height H3 of the third top 213 from the plate surface of the plate 5, the height of the second rib 22 is less than the height of the first rib 14, the depth of the first groove 141 of the second rib 22 toward the adjacent first plate 1 on the other side is less than the depth of the second groove 221 of the second rib 22 toward the adjacent second plate 2 on the other side, and the depth of the first groove 141 corresponding to the refrigerant side is less than the depth of the second groove 221 corresponding to the coolant side, which is conducive to reducing the flow space on the refrigerant side, increasing the flow space on the coolant side, making the refrigerant have a higher pressure drop, reducing the pressure drop of the coolant, and making the heat exchange efficiency between the coolant and the refrigerant better. In other embodiments, the height of the second rib 22 may also be greater than the height of the first rib 14, and the depth of the first groove 141 corresponding to the refrigerant side is greater than the depth of the second groove 221 corresponding to the coolant side. In other embodiments, H2 may also be greater than H3.

[0084] In other embodiments, the first convex portion 11 may not include the first low-position segment 13, and the third convex portion 37 may not include the second low-position segment 18. The shapes of the first convex portion 11 and the third convex portion 37 are not limited.
