[0002] A large number of electrical equipment are usually placed in electrical cabinets. These electrical equipment cannot work for a long time in a high temperature environment. In order to reduce the impact of external dust on internal electrical equipment, electrical cabinets often use closed structures.

Therefore, electrical cabinets often use air heat exchangers to dissipate heat inside the electrical cabinet. The air heat exchanger includes a heat exchange core, which has an internal circulation duct connected to the inside of the cabinet and an external circulation duct connected to the outside. The internal circulation duct and the external circulation duct are arranged alternately. The internal circulation duct generally has a top air inlet and a side outlet, while the external circulation duct has a bottom air inlet and a side outlet. The airflow flows in opposite directions in the internal circulation duct and the external circulation duct to achieve heat exchange, but the heat exchange efficiency of this heat exchanger still cannot meet the heat exchange requirements of the electrical cabinet.

[0015] From the above description of the present invention and its preferred embodiments, it can be seen that, compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention and its preferred embodiments have the following beneficial effects due to the adoption of the following technical means:

[0016] The applicant has learned through continuous observation, experimentation and research that the reason for the technical problem of "poor heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger" in the existing technical solutions is that after a long period of heat exchange in the heat exchanger, dust is easily accumulated at the top corner of the outer circulation air duct, and the heat exchange time of the inner circulation air duct is short, resulting in insufficient heat exchange.

[0017] In technical solution 1 and its preferred embodiment, the outer circulation air duct runs through the heat exchange core along the Z-axis direction and its two ends respectively form an air inlet end and an air outlet end, so that the wind resistance of the outer circulation air duct is small and dust is not easy to accumulate in the outer circulation air duct; the inner circulation air duct includes a plurality of pipes, both ends of which are opened at the first side of the heat exchange core along the X-axis direction and respectively form an air supply end and a return air end, and each air supply end and each return air end of each inner circulation air duct are arranged along the Z-axis direction, the wind resistance of the pipe is large, and the wind flow stays in the inner circulation air duct for a longer time when passing through the inner circulation air duct, but it should be understood that although the wind resistance of the pipe is increased, the wind speed of the air flow in the pipe is still Faster, because the inner circulation air duct and the outer circulation air duct are arranged alternately along the Y-axis direction, the inner circulation airflow can fully exchange heat with the outer circulation airflow, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency; wherein, the inner circulation air duct is provided with a plurality of pipes and the structural design of the pipes also enables the airflow to flow through various parts of the inner circulation air duct when passing through the inner circulation air duct, avoiding the part far away from the first side of the heat exchange core along the X-axis direction from not passing through the air, thereby further improving the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct and the outer circulation air duct; therefore, the outer circulation air duct of the technical solution is not easy to accumulate dust, and the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct and the outer circulation air duct is high. (affects the heat exchange effect, heat exchange coefficient and heat exchange area, the higher the wind speed, the better)

[0018] In technical solution two and its preferred embodiment, the structural setting of the pipeline is not only conducive to production and processing compared to pipelines in other complex shapes, but also more conducive to achieving a balance between wind resistance and wind speed, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct and the outer circulation air duct.

[0019] In technical solution three and its preferred embodiment, a plurality of first sub-inner air ducts parallel to each other are provided in the first section, a plurality of second sub-inner air ducts parallel to each other are provided in the second section, and a plurality of third sub-inner air ducts parallel to each other are provided in the third section. Compared with the solution in which no sub-inner air ducts are provided in the pipeline, the heat exchange area of ​​the pipeline is larger, thereby further increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the internal circulation air duct and the external circulation air duct.

[0020] In technical solution 4 and its preferred embodiment, the first sub-inner air duct is connected to the corresponding third sub-inner air duct, and the second sub-inner air duct is connected to the corresponding third sub-inner air duct, which is beneficial to avoid excessive wind resistance.

[0021] In technical solution five and its preferred embodiments, a gap is formed between the first sub-inner air duct and the third sub-inner air duct, and a gap is formed between the second sub-inner air duct and the third sub-inner air duct. Compared with technical solution four, it is not necessary to connect the first sub-inner air duct and the third sub-inner air duct, nor is it necessary to connect the third sub-inner air duct and the second sub-inner air duct, which eliminates the splicing step and is conducive to processing. Moreover, when the internal circulating airflow enters the gap between the first sub-inner air duct and the second sub-inner air duct after passing through each first sub-inner air duct, it changes from laminar flow to turbulent flow and is mixed and evenly heated in the gap, and then changes to laminar flow after passing through each third sub-inner air duct, and then changes to turbulent flow after passing through the gap between the third sub-inner air duct and the second sub-inner air duct and is mixed and evenly heated in the gap, and finally changes to laminar flow after passing through each second sub-inner air duct. The turbulent flow at the gap increases the heat exchange efficiency at the corner of the U-shaped pipe and improves the temperature uniformity of the internal circulating airflow at each air outlet end.

[0022] In technical solution six and its preferred embodiment, a plurality of sub-external air ducts parallel to each other and extending along the Z-axis direction are provided in the external circulation air duct. Compared with the solution in which only one sub-external air duct is formed in the external circulation air duct, the heat exchange area of ​​the external circulation air duct is larger, thereby further increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the internal circulation air duct and the external circulation air duct.

[0023] Technical solution seven and its preferred embodiments have the technical advantages of any one of technical solutions one to six.

[0024] In technical solution eight and its preferred embodiments, the shell and the heat exchange core form a first interval and a second interval at the bottom and top along the Z-axis direction, respectively. The third air outlet and the fourth air outlet are connected to the first interval and the second interval, respectively. The setting of the first interval is beneficial to the air intake of the air inlet end of each external circulation air duct, and the setting of the second interval is beneficial to the placement of the second heat dissipation fan. Such a setting makes the third air outlet and the fourth air outlet located at the bottom and top of the shell, respectively. The air outlet of the fourth air outlet is discharged upward, and it is not easy to enter the third air outlet and cause a heat island effect.

[0025] In technical solution nine and its preferred embodiments, the third air outlet is located at the bottom and outer side of the first interval, which is conducive to increasing the air intake volume. The fourth air outlet is located at the outer side of the second interval and is higher than the second heat dissipation fan, which is conducive to forming a structure in which the part of the shell located outside the cabinet forms a bottom air inlet and side air outlet, thereby improving the protectiveness of the external circulation air duct and making the external circulation air duct less prone to dust accumulation.

[0026] Technical solution ten has the technical advantages of any one of technical solutions seven to nine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] See also Figure 2 The heat exchange core 10 is in a rectangular shape, and is provided with a plurality of inner circulation air ducts 11 and outer circulation air ducts 12 alternately arranged along the Y-axis direction.

[0046] See also Figure 3-4 , Figure 6-7 The inner circulation air duct 11 is provided with a plurality of pipes 110, both ends of which are opened at the first side of the heat exchange core 10 along the X-axis direction and respectively form an air supply end 114 and an air return end 115, and each air supply end 114 and each air return end 115 of each inner circulation air duct 11 are arranged along the Z-axis direction; each air supply end 114 and each air return end 115 of each inner circulation air duct 11 respectively form an air supply port 01 and a return air port 02.

[0047] The duct 110 is U-shaped, and is provided with a first section 111 connected to the air supply end 114, a second section 112 connected to the return air end 115, and a third section 113 connecting the first section 111 and the second section 112; the first section 111 and the second section 112 both extend along the X-axis direction, and the third section 113 extends along the Z-axis direction; each first section 111 and each second section 112 in each internal circulation air duct 11 are arranged along the Z-axis direction, and each third section 113 is arranged along the X-axis direction.

[0049] See also Figure 5-7 The outer circulation air duct 12 penetrates the heat exchange core 10 along the Z axis direction and forms an air inlet end 122 and an air outlet end 123 at both ends thereof. Each air inlet end 122 and each air outlet end 123 of each outer circulation air duct 12 respectively forms an air inlet 03 and an air outlet 04. A plurality of sub-external air ducts 121 extending in parallel along the Z axis direction are provided in the outer circulation air duct 12. In practical applications, heat exchange fins are fixed in each outer circulation air duct 12 to form a plurality of sub-external air ducts 121.

[0050] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4-5 The shell 20 is embedded in the first side wall 101 and is used to accommodate the heat exchange core 10. The part located inside the cabinet 100 is provided with a first air outlet 21 connected to the air supply port 01 and a second air outlet 22 connected to the return air port 02. The part located outside the cabinet 100 is provided with a third air outlet 23 connected to the air inlet 03 and a fourth air outlet 24 connected to the air outlet 04. In this embodiment, the shell 20 is in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and the length of the shell 20 along the X-axis direction is similar to the length of the heat exchange core 10 along the X-axis direction, and the length of the shell 20 along the Y-axis direction is similar to the length of the heat exchange core 10 along the Y-axis direction, but the height of the shell 20 along the Z-axis direction is higher than the heat exchange core 10, and the shell 20 and the heat exchange core 10 form a first interval 25 and a second interval 26 at the bottom and top ends along the Z-axis direction, respectively, and the third air outlet 23 and the fourth air outlet 24 are connected to the first interval 25 and the second interval 26, respectively; the third air outlet 23 is located at the bottom and outer side of the first interval 25, and the fourth air outlet 24 is located at the outer side of the second interval 26.

[0051] The first heat dissipation fan 30 is fixed relative to the housing 20 and is used to drive the air to flow from the return air port 02 to the supply air port 01 . In this embodiment, the first heat dissipation fan 30 is fixedly connected to the first air port 21 of the housing 20 .

[0052] The second cooling fan 40 is fixed relative to the housing 20 and is used to drive wind to flow from the air inlet 03 to the air outlet 04. In this embodiment, the second cooling fan 40 is placed in the second interval and lower than the fourth air outlet 24, that is, the fourth air outlet 24 is higher than the second cooling fan 40.

[0053] In this embodiment, the outer circulation air duct 12 penetrates the heat exchange core 10 along the Z-axis direction and forms an air inlet end 122 and an air outlet end 123 at its two ends, so that the wind resistance of the outer circulation air duct 12 is small and dust is not easy to accumulate in the outer circulation air duct 12; the inner circulation air duct 11 includes a plurality of pipes 110, both ends of which are opened at the first side of the heat exchange core 10 along the X-axis direction and form an air supply end 114 and an air return end 115, respectively, and each air supply end 114 and each air return end 115 of each inner circulation air duct 11 are arranged along the Z-axis direction. The wind resistance of the pipe 110 is large, and the wind flow stays in the inner circulation air duct 11 for a longer time when passing through the inner circulation air duct 11. However, it should be understood that although the wind resistance of the pipe 110 is increased, the air in the pipe 110 is The wind speed of the airflow is still relatively fast. Since the inner circulation air duct 11 and the outer circulation air duct 12 are alternately arranged along the Y-axis direction, the inner circulation airflow can fully exchange heat with the outer circulation airflow, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency; wherein, the inner circulation air duct 11 is provided with a plurality of pipes 110 and the structural design of the pipes 110 also enables the airflow to flow through various parts of the inner circulation air duct 11 when passing through the inner circulation air duct 11, thereby avoiding the part away from the first side of the heat exchange core 10 along the X-axis direction from passing through the wind, thereby further improving the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct 11 and the outer circulation air duct 12; therefore, the outer circulation air duct 12 of the present technical solution is not easy to accumulate dust, and the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct 11 and the outer circulation air duct 12 is high.

[0054] In this embodiment, the structural setting of the pipeline 110 is not only conducive to production and processing compared to other complex shapes of the pipeline 110, but also more conducive to achieving a balance between wind resistance and wind speed, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct 11 and the outer circulation air duct 12.

[0055] In this embodiment, a plurality of first sub-inner air ducts 1111 parallel to each other are provided in the first section 111, a plurality of second sub-inner air ducts 1121 parallel to each other are provided in the second section 112, and a plurality of third sub-inner air ducts 1131 parallel to each other are provided in the third section 113. Compared with a solution in which no sub-inner air ducts are provided in the pipeline 110, the heat exchange area of ​​the pipeline 110 is larger, thereby further increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the inner circulation air duct 11 and the outer circulation air duct 12.

[0056] In this embodiment, a gap is formed between the first sub-inner air duct 1111 and the third sub-inner air duct 1131, and a gap is formed between the second sub-inner air duct 1121 and the third sub-inner air duct 1131. It is not necessary to connect the first sub-inner air duct 1111 with the third sub-inner air duct 1131, nor is it necessary to connect the third sub-inner air duct 1131 with the second sub-inner air duct 1121. The splicing step is omitted, which is beneficial to processing. In addition, the internal circulating airflow enters the first sub-inner air duct 1121 after passing through each first sub-inner air duct 1111. The laminar flow changes to turbulent flow in the gap between the U-shaped duct 110 and the second sub-inner duct 1111 and is mixed and evenly heated in the gap, and then changes to laminar flow through each third sub-inner duct 1131, and then changes to turbulent flow through the gap between the third sub-inner duct 1131 and the second sub-inner duct 1121 and is mixed and evenly heated in the gap, and finally changes to laminar flow through each second sub-inner duct 1121. The turbulent flow in the gap increases the heat exchange efficiency at the corner of the U-shaped duct 110 and improves the temperature uniformity of the internal circulating airflow at each air outlet end 123. In other embodiments, the first sub-inner duct 1111 is connected to the corresponding third sub-inner duct 1131, and the second sub-inner duct 1121 is connected to the corresponding third sub-inner duct 1131, which is conducive to avoiding excessive wind resistance.

[0057] In this embodiment, a plurality of sub-external air ducts 121 parallel to each other and extending along the Z-axis direction are provided in the external circulation air duct 12. Compared with a solution in which only one sub-external air duct 121 is formed in the external circulation air duct 12, the heat exchange area of ​​the external circulation air duct 12 is larger, thereby further increasing the heat exchange efficiency of the internal circulation air duct 11 and the external circulation air duct 12.

[0058] In this embodiment, the shell 20 and the heat exchange core 10 form a first interval 25 and a second interval 26 at the bottom and top of the Z-axis direction, respectively. The third air outlet 23 and the fourth air outlet 24 are connected to the first interval 25 and the second interval 26, respectively. The setting of the first interval 25 is conducive to the air intake of the air inlet end 122 of each external circulation air duct 12, and the setting of the second interval 25 is conducive to the placement of the second heat dissipation fan 40. Such a setting makes the third air outlet 23 and the fourth air outlet 24 located at the bottom and top of the shell 20, respectively. The air outlet of the fourth air outlet 24 is discharged upward and is not easy to enter the third air outlet 23 to cause a heat island effect. The third air outlet 23 is located at the bottom and the outer side of the first interval 25, which is conducive to increasing the air intake volume. The fourth air outlet 24 is located at the outer side of the second interval 26 and is higher than the second heat dissipation fan 40, which is conducive to forming a structure in which the part of the shell 20 located outside the cabinet forms a bottom air intake and a side air outlet, thereby improving the protection of the external circulation air duct and making the external circulation air duct less prone to dust accumulation.
