Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a heat pump, in particular to a heat exchanger for refrigerant and hot water. Background Art

[0002] The current existing technology, Chinese patent 201420806093.2, is a titanium tube heat exchanger that can effectively improve heat exchange efficiency. It includes a shell and a top cover at the top of the shell to form a sealed cavity. The top of the shell is provided with a water outlet pipe and a water flow switch located on the water outlet pipe. The bottom of the shell is provided with a water inlet pipe. The shell is provided with an inner titanium coil connected to the refrigerant outlet extending outside the shell, and an outer titanium coil surrounding the inner titanium coil and connected to the refrigerant inlet extending outside the shell. The diameter of the inner titanium coil is smaller than the diameter of the outer titanium coil. This titanium tube heat exchanger that can effectively improve heat exchange efficiency arranges the heat exchange tubes connecting the refrigerant inlet and the refrigerant outlet into titanium coils of different diameters. When the refrigerant gas enters and releases heat, the larger diameter outer titanium coil can reduce the pressure of the heat pump system, while when the refrigerant liquid flows out, the smaller diameter inner titanium coil can ensure sufficient heat exchange, thereby effectively improving the heat exchange efficiency of the titanium tube heat exchanger. The existing problems are: the arrangement of the inner titanium coil and the outer titanium coil increases the cost, is bulky, and has a large heat exchange distance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a single coil heat exchanger which has the characteristics of small size, low cost and high heat exchange efficiency.

[0004] The present invention is realized as follows: a single coil heat exchanger, which is special in that it comprises an outer shell, an inner tube, a spiral cylindrical coil and a baffle.

[0005] The shell includes a refrigerant inlet and outlet holes at the top, a hot water outlet pipe at the upper part of the circumferential wall, and a cold water inlet pipe at the lower part;

[0006] The baffle is spirally wound to form an inner guide body and an outer guide body, and the gap between the inner guide body and the outer guide body forms a cylindrical coil cavity; the diameter of the outer guide body is larger than that of the inner guide body;

[0007] The bottom plate of the outer shell supports the lower end of the inner guide body or the outer guide body, the inner cylinder is arranged in the space of the inner guide body and fits in with it, and the outer guide body fits in with the inner surface of the outer shell; the spiral cylindrical coil is arranged in the cylindrical coil cavity, and the spiral cylindrical coil fits in with the inner guide body and the outer guide body respectively.

[0008] The special feature of the single coil heat exchanger is that the inner and outer guide fluids are made of a baffle plate and are arranged in order from bottom to top: outer guide fluid, inner guide fluid, outer guide fluid, inner guide fluid;

[0009] Or they can be arranged in order from bottom to top according to the inner guiding fluid, outer guiding fluid, inner guiding fluid and outer guiding fluid.

[0010] The single coil heat exchanger is special in that the cross section of the baffle is square or trapezoidal.

[0011] The present invention provides a single-coil heat exchanger. Due to the adoption of such a structure, water flows between the outer shell and the inner tube and exchanges heat with the spiral cylindrical coil. The arrangement of the baffle increases the path for water to flow around the tube body of the spiral cylindrical coil while keeping the height and volume unchanged, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency.
