Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of household appliance technology, such as an arc-shaped fin, a heat exchanger, and an air conditioner. Background Technology

[0002] In air conditioners, heat exchangers, including evaporators and condensers, are the main energy-consuming structural components. The performance of the heat exchanger directly affects the energy consumption level of the air conditioner. Wall-mounted, floor-standing, and ducted household air conditioners widely use finned tube heat exchangers, whose external air-side thermal resistance typically accounts for 70%-90% of the total thermal resistance, thus determining the overall performance of the heat exchanger.

[0003] In the process of implementing the embodiments of this disclosure, at least the following problems were found in the related art:

[0004] Taking the indoor unit of a ducted air conditioner as an example, it often uses an I-type inclined heat exchanger. However, under the condition of non-uniform air field distribution, this type of heat exchanger results in insufficient heat exchange area in the high air velocity zone formed by the indoor fan, while there is excess heat exchange area in the low air velocity zone. This prevents the heat exchanger from performing at its full potential and reduces its heat exchange efficiency.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0085] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the present disclosure can be combined with each other.

[0086] This disclosure provides a heat exchanger with arc-shaped fins. Optionally, a heat exchanger with arc-shaped fins may also be referred to as a heat exchanger.

[0087] Optionally, the heat exchanger with arc-shaped fins includes fins and heat exchange tubes passing through the fins. The fins include an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3. The upper fin segment 1 includes parallel straight first side profile lines 11 spaced W1 apart. The middle fin segment 2 is located below the upper fin segment 1 and is bent and connected to it. The middle fin segment 2 includes parallel straight second side profile lines 21 spaced W2 apart. The lower fin segment 3 is located below the middle fin segment 2 and is bent and connected to it. The lower fin segment 3 includes parallel straight third side profile lines 31 spaced W3 apart, where W2 ≥ W1 and W2 > W3. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0088] It is understood that the upper wing segment 1, the middle wing segment 2, and the lower wing segment 3 are arranged in an upper, middle, and lower configuration when the fin is in use. Optionally, the upper wing segment 1, the middle wing segment 2, and the lower wing segment 3 of the fin are integrally formed.

[0089] The spacing W1 of the first side contour lines 11 can be understood as the width of the upper fin segment 1. Similarly, the spacing W2 of the second side contour lines 21 is the width of the middle fin segment 2, and the spacing W3 of the third side contour lines 31 is the width of the lower fin segment 3. In this embodiment, W2 ≥ W1, that is, the width of the middle fin segment 2 is greater than or equal to the width of the upper fin segment 1; W2 > W3, that is, the width of the middle fin segment 2 is greater than the width of the lower fin segment 3. This makes the shape of the fins match the uneven distribution of the air velocity generated by the indoor fan in the air duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0090] Existing type-I finned heat exchangers exhibit uneven airflow distribution during heat exchange, with high airflow velocity at the top and low airflow velocity at the bottom. In contrast, the straight-edge finned heat exchanger provided in this embodiment effectively guides the airflow from the high-velocity central area to both the top and bottom sections, resulting in a more uniform overall airflow velocity distribution. This uniform airflow distribution improves the uniformity of the heat exchange field and enhances the overall heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger.

[0091] Fins with arc-shaped side profiles can be called C-type fins. Existing C-type fin heat exchangers have a large flow stagnation zone in the middle on the leeward side, resulting in uneven outlet air velocity distribution. Compared with existing C-type fin heat exchangers, the straight-edge fin heat exchanger provided in this embodiment effectively guides the incoming flow in the high-velocity zone in the middle to both the upper and lower parts, significantly reducing the flow stagnation zone in the middle on the leeward side and resulting in a more uniform outlet air velocity distribution. Figure 34 As shown in the velocity distribution cloud map, it can be seen that the C-shaped finned heat exchanger has a large flow stagnation zone in the middle of the leeward side. Figure 35 To and Figure 34Velocity distribution contour plot of a straight-edged finned heat exchanger measured at the same wind speed. From Figure 35 As can be seen, the flow stagnation zone on the leeward side of the heat exchanger with straight-edged fins is significantly reduced.

[0092] Figure 36 This is a pressure distribution contour map of a C-fin heat exchanger. Figure 37 This is a pressure distribution cloud diagram of the straight-edged finned heat exchanger provided in this embodiment. It can be measured that the pressure drop on the windward and leeward sides of the existing C-type finned heat exchanger is 278 Pa, while the pressure drop on the windward and leeward sides of the straight-edged finned heat exchanger provided in this embodiment is 271 Pa. It can be seen that the pressure drop of the existing C-type heat exchanger is relatively large. Compared with the C-type heat exchanger, the pressure drop of the straight-edged finned heat exchanger provided in this embodiment is reduced by 2.5%.

[0093] Alternatively, 1 ≤ W2 / W1 ≤ 2; and / or, 1 ≤ W2 / W3 ≤ 2.

[0094] Optionally, 1 < W2 / W1 ≤ 2, 1 < W2 / W3 ≤ 2. In this embodiment, the width of the middle wing segment 2 is relatively large, greater than the widths of the upper wing segment 1 and the lower wing segment 3. This improves the effect of the middle wing segment 2 in guiding airflow to the upper wing segment 1 and the lower wing segment 3 respectively, and improves the uniformity of the overall wind speed distribution of the fins.

[0095] Optionally, the first side profile 11 includes a first leeward side profile 111 and a first windward side profile 112; the second side profile 21 includes a second leeward side profile 211 and a second windward side profile 212; and the third side profile 31 includes a third leeward side profile 311 and a third windward side profile 312. Let the midpoint of the line connecting the upper endpoint of the first windward side profile 112 and the lower endpoint of the third windward side profile 312 be a reference point F. Let the first angle of the second leeward side profile 211 corresponding to reference point F be d1; the second angle of the first leeward side profile 111 corresponding to reference point F be d2; and the third angle of the third leeward side profile 311 corresponding to reference point F be d3, where 5°≤d1≤160°; and / or 10°≤d2≤100°; and / or 15°≤d3≤100°. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown.

[0096] The first leeward side profile line 111, the second leeward side profile line 211, and the third leeward side profile line 311 are connected in sequence to obtain the leeward side profile line of the fin; similarly, the first windward side profile line 112, the second windward side profile line 212, and the third windward side profile line 312 are connected in sequence to obtain the windward side profile line of the fin.

[0097] Reference point F is the midpoint of the line connecting the upper endpoint G3 of the first windward profile line 112 and the lower endpoint G4 of the third windward profile line 312.

[0098] The first angle d1 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the second leeward profile 211. When the line connecting the second leeward profile 211 and the first leeward profile 111 is an arc, and the line connecting the second leeward profile 211 and the third leeward profile 311 is an arc, the extension of the second leeward profile 211 intersects the extension of the first leeward profile 111 at the first intersection point, and the extension of the second leeward profile 211 intersects the extension of the third leeward profile 311 at the second intersection point. The angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the first intersection point and the second intersection point is taken as the first angle d1.

[0099] Similarly, the second angle d2 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the first leeward profile 111. When the line connecting the second leeward profile 211 and the first leeward profile 111 is an arc, the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the first intersection point and the upper endpoint of the first leeward profile 111 is taken as the second angle d2.

[0100] Similarly, the third angle d3 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the third leeward profile 311. When the angle between the second leeward profile 211 and the third leeward profile 311 is an arc, the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the second intersection point and the lower endpoint of the third leeward profile 311 is taken as the third angle d3.

[0101] Optionally, 30°≤d1≤160°; and / or, 15°≤d2≤100°; and / or, 15°≤d3≤100°.

[0102] Optionally, when the fin shape is vertically symmetrical, the first angle d1 corresponding to reference point F of the second leeward profile 211 can be appropriately reduced, for example, 5°≤d1≤70°. In this case, the length of the second leeward profile 211 decreases, which is beneficial to improving the effect of the middle fin segment 2 in guiding airflow to the upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3 respectively. Optionally, 10°≤d1≤40°, or 25°≤d1≤35°. Optionally, compared with the first angle d1, the second angle d2 corresponding to reference point F of the first leeward profile 111 can be appropriately increased, for example, 15°≤d2≤85°. In this case, the corresponding increase in the length of the first leeward profile 111 is beneficial to improving the reception of airflow diverted from the middle fin segment 2 by the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, 35°≤d2≤65°, or 40°≤d2≤55°. Similarly, compared to the first leeward profile d1, the third leeward profile 311 corresponding to the reference point F can have its third leeward profile d3 appropriately increased, for example, 25°≤d3≤95°. In this case, the corresponding increase in the length of the third leeward profile 311 is beneficial for improving the lower wing segment 3's reception of the airflow diverted from the middle wing segment 2. Optionally, 45°≤d3≤75°, or 40°≤d3≤60°. Optionally, the length of the third leeward profile 311 is slightly greater than the length of the first leeward profile 111. Optionally, the difference between d3 and d1 is greater than 5° and less than or equal to 10°. Figure 7 As shown.

[0103] Optionally, when the fin shape is vertically symmetrical, 0.4 ≤ d1 / d2 ≤ 0.6; and / or, 0.3 ≤ d1 / d3 ≤ 0.5. When the length of the second leeward profile 211 decreases, the first angle d1 corresponding to the second leeward profile 211 also decreases accordingly. In this embodiment, d1 / d2 can be 0.4, 0.5, or 0.6, so that the first angle d1 is smaller than the second angle d2, and correspondingly, the length of the second leeward profile 211 is smaller than the length of the first leeward profile 111, thereby improving the airflow guiding effect of the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1; similarly, d1 / d3 can be 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5, so that the first angle d1 is smaller than the third angle d3, and correspondingly, the length of the second leeward profile 211 is smaller than the length of the third leeward profile 311, thereby improving the airflow guiding effect of the middle fin segment 2 to the lower fin segment 3. Optionally, d1 / d2 > d1 / d3.

[0104] The symmetrical shape of the fins can be understood as follows: the angle s1 between the first leeward profile line 111 and the horizontal line, the angle s3 between the third leeward profile line 311 and the horizontal line, s1 = s3; the angle s2 between the first windward profile line 112 and the horizontal line, and the angle s4 between the third windward profile line 312 and the horizontal line, s2 = s4. In this case, the curvature of the upper fin segment 1 is the same as the curvature of the lower fin segment 3. For example... Figure 3 As shown.

[0105] Optionally, 115° < d1 + d2 + d3 < 145°, or 120° < d1 + d2 + d3 < 130°.

[0106] Optionally, when the fin shape is asymmetrical, the angle s1 between the first leeward profile line 111 and the horizontal line is not equal to the angle s3 between the third leeward profile line 311 and the horizontal line. Optionally, s1 > s3, and the length of the first leeward profile line 111 is less than the length of the third leeward profile line 311. Figure 4 As shown.

[0107] Optionally, when the fin shape is asymmetrical, 10°≤d1≤80°, which is beneficial to improving the effect of the middle fin segment 2 in guiding airflow to the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, 20°≤d1≤50°, or 35°≤d1≤40°. Optionally, compared with the first angle d1, the second angle d2 corresponding to the reference point F of the first leeward side profile 111 can be appropriately reduced, for example, 5°≤d2≤75°, which is beneficial to improving the upper fin segment 1 in receiving airflow diverted from the middle fin segment 2. Optionally, 12°≤d2≤42°, or 25°≤d2≤35°. The third angle d3 corresponding to the reference point F of the third leeward side profile 311 can be appropriately increased, for example, 20°≤d3≤100°. In this case, the length of the third leeward side profile 311 is relatively increased, which is beneficial to improving the lower fin segment 3 in receiving airflow diverted from the middle fin segment 2. Optionally, 40° ≤ d3 ≤ 80°, or 60° ≤ d3 ≤ 70°. Optionally, the difference between d3 and d1 is greater than 10° and less than or equal to 25°. Figure 8 As shown.

[0108] Optionally, when the fin shape is asymmetrical, 1.2 ≤ d1 / d2 ≤ 1.4, and / or; 0.45 ≤ d1 / d3 ≤ 0.7. The second angle d2 corresponding to the first leeward profile 111 is relatively smaller than the first angle d1 corresponding to the second leeward profile 211. This helps improve the airflow guiding effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1 in asymmetrical fins. Optionally, d1 / d2 can be 1.2, 1.3, or 1.4. The third angle d3 corresponding to the third leeward profile 311 is relatively larger than the first angle d1 corresponding to the second leeward profile 211. This helps improve the airflow guiding effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the lower fin segment 3 in irregular fins. Optionally, d1 / d3 can be 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, 0.6, 0.65, or 0.7.

[0109] Optionally, the angle between the first windward profile line 112 and the second windward profile line 212 is the first plate segment angle α, and the angle between the second windward profile line 212 and the third windward profile line 312 is the second plate segment angle β, wherein the first plate segment angle α is greater than or equal to 100°; and / or, the second plate segment angle β is greater than or equal to 100°. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown.

[0110] It is understandable that when the first windward side profile line 112 and the second windward side profile line 212 intersect directly, the included angle formed by the intersection of these two side profile lines is the first segment included angle α; when the first windward side profile line 112 and the second windward side profile line 212 are connected by arcs and do not intersect directly, the included angle formed by the intersection of the extension of the first windward side profile line 112 and the extension of the second windward side profile line 212 is the first segment included angle α. Similarly, when the second windward side profile line 212 and the third windward side profile line 312 intersect directly, the included angle formed by the intersection of these two side profile lines is the second segment included angle β; when the second windward side profile line 212 and the third windward side profile line 312 are connected by arcs and do not intersect directly, the included angle formed by the intersection of the extension of the second windward side profile line 212 and the extension of the third windward side profile line 312 is the second segment included angle β.

[0111] Optionally, 100°≤α≤170°; and / or, 100°≤β≤170°.

[0112] Optionally, when the fin shape is vertically symmetrical, 120°≤α≤135°, thus improving the airflow diversion effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, α can be 120°, 125°, 128°, 130°, or 135°. Similarly, 120°≤β≤135°, thus improving the airflow diversion effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the lower fin segment 3. Optionally, β can be 120°, 125°, 128°, 130°, or 135°. Optionally, α=β. For example... Figure 5 As shown.

[0113] Optionally, when the fins are asymmetrical, 127°≤α≤178°; and / or, 95°≤β≤150°; alternatively, 140°≤α≤170°; and / or, 110°≤β≤143°; alternatively, 150°≤α≤160°, thus improving the wind-splitting effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, α can be 150°, 155°, 157°, or 160°; similarly, 120°≤β≤135°, thus improving the wind-splitting effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the lower fin segment 3. Optionally, β can be 120°, 125°, 128°, 130°, or 135°. Optionally, α>β; alternatively, the difference between α and β is greater than 20° and less than or equal to 30°. Figure 6 As shown.

[0114] Optionally, the fourth angle of the second windward profile 212 corresponding to reference point F is e1, the fifth angle of the first windward profile 112 corresponding to reference point F is e2, and the sixth angle of the third windward profile 312 corresponding to reference point F is e3, wherein 30°≤e1≤160°; and / or, 15°≤e2≤100°; and / or, 15°≤e3≤100°. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown.

[0115] It is understandable that the fourth angle e1 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the second windward profile 212. When the line connecting the second windward profile 212 and the first windward profile 112 is an arc, and the line connecting the second windward profile 212 and the third windward profile 312 is an arc, then the extension of the second windward profile 212 intersects the extension of the first windward profile 112 at the third intersection point, and the extension of the second windward profile 212 intersects the extension of the third windward profile 312 at the fourth intersection point. The angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the third intersection point and the fourth intersection point is taken as the fourth angle e1.

[0116] Similarly, the fifth angle e2 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the first windward profile 112. When the line connecting the second windward profile 212 and the first windward profile 112 is an arc, the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the third intersection point and the upper endpoint of the first windward profile 112 is taken as the fifth angle e2.

[0117] Similarly, the sixth angle e3 is the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the two endpoints of the third windward profile 312. When the line connecting the second windward profile 212 and the third windward profile 312 is an arc, the angle between the two lines connecting the reference point F to the fourth intersection point and the lower endpoint of the third windward profile 312 is taken as the sixth angle e3.

[0118] Optionally, when the fin shape is vertically symmetrical, the fourth angle e1 of the second windward profile line 212 corresponding to reference point F can be appropriately reduced, for example, 15°≤e1≤80°. In this case, the length of the second windward profile line 212 is correspondingly reduced, which is beneficial to improving the effect of the middle fin segment 2 in guiding airflow to the upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3 respectively. Optionally, 27°≤e1≤67°. Optionally, compared with the fourth angle e1, the fifth angle e2 of the first windward profile line 112 corresponding to reference point F can be appropriately increased, for example, 35°≤e2≤85°, or 45°≤e2≤75°. In this case, the length of the first windward profile line 112 is correspondingly increased, which is beneficial to improving the reception of airflow diverted from the middle fin segment 2 by the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, 60°≤e2≤70°. Similarly, compared to the fourth angle e1, the sixth angle e3 corresponding to reference point F of the third windward profile line 312 can be appropriately increased, for example, 50°≤e3≤100°. In this case, the relatively increased length of the third windward profile line 312 is beneficial for improving the reception of airflow diverted from the middle wing segment 2 by the lower wing segment 3. Optionally, 62°≤e3≤92°, or 62°≤e3≤70°. Optionally, the length of the third windward profile line 312 is slightly greater than the length of the first windward profile line 112. Optionally, the difference between e3 and e2 is greater than 0.5° and less than or equal to 5°. Figure 9 As shown.

[0119] Optionally, when the shape of the fins is symmetrical, 0.3≤e1 / e2≤1; and / or, 0.25≤e1 / e3≤0.85. When the length of the second windward profile 212 is relatively small, the fourth angle e1 corresponding to the second windward profile 212 is also relatively small. Optionally, 0.6 ≤ e1 / e2 ≤ 0.8, for example, e1 / e2 can be 0.6, 0.7, or 0.8. This makes the fourth angle e1 smaller than the fifth angle e2. Correspondingly, the length of the second windward profile 212 is smaller than the length of the first windward profile 112, thereby improving the airflow guiding effect from the middle wing segment 2 to the upper wing segment 1. Optionally, 0.45 ≤ e1 / e3 ≤ 0.65, for example, e1 / e3 can be 0.45, 0.55, or 0.65. This makes the fourth angle e1 smaller than the sixth angle e3. Correspondingly, the length of the second windward profile 212 is smaller than the length of the third windward profile 312, thereby improving the airflow guiding effect from the middle wing segment 2 to the lower wing segment 3. Optionally, e1 / e2 > e1 / e3.

[0120] Optionally, when the fin shape is asymmetrical, s2≠s4, or s2>s4, and the length of the first windward profile 112 is less than the length of the third windward profile 312, e2≠e3. Optionally, 30°≤e1≤100°, which is beneficial to improving the effect of the middle fin segment 2 in guiding airflow to the upper fin segment 1. Optionally, 50°≤e1≤80°, or 70°≤e1≤80°. Optionally, compared with the fourth angle e1, the fifth angle e2 corresponding to the reference point F of the first windward profile 112 can be appropriately reduced, for example, 5°≤e2≤70°, which is beneficial to improving the upper fin segment 1 in receiving airflow diverted from the middle fin segment 2. Optionally, 18°≤e2≤48°, or 30°≤e2≤40°. The sixth angle e3 corresponding to reference point F of the third windward profile line 312 can be appropriately increased, for example, 45°≤e3≤100°. In this case, the relatively increased length of the third windward profile line 312 is beneficial for improving the reception of airflow diverted from the middle wing segment 2 by the lower wing segment 3. Optionally, 65°≤e3≤95°, or 66°≤e3≤75°. Optionally, the difference between e3 and e1 is greater than or equal to 0° and less than or equal to 5°. Figure 10 As shown.

[0121] Optionally, when the fin shape is asymmetrical, 1.7 ≤ e1 / e2 ≤ 2.3; and / or, 0.5 ≤ e1 / e3 ≤ 1.2. The fifth angle e2 corresponding to the first windward side profile 112 is relatively smaller than the fourth angle e1 corresponding to the second windward side profile 212. This helps improve the airflow guiding effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1 in irregular fins. Optionally, e1 / e2 can be 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.2, or 2.3. Optionally, 0.5 ≤ e1 / e3 < 1, and the sixth angle e3 corresponding to the third windward side profile 312 is relatively larger than the fourth angle e1 corresponding to the second windward side profile 212. This helps improve the airflow guiding effect from the middle fin segment 2 to the lower fin segment 3 in irregular fins. Optionally, e1 / e3 can be 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, or 0.95.

In the same column, the distance between two adjacent first heat exchange tube holes is b1; the distance between two adjacent first heat exchange tube holes located in two adjacent columns is m1.

[0133] Similarly, the upper fin segment 1 is provided with a plurality of second heat exchange tube holes for the heat exchange tubes to pass through. The plurality of second heat exchange tube holes form a column of second heat exchange tube holes arranged along the first windward side contour line 112 or the first leeward side contour line 111.

[0136] Optionally, when the fins are irregular fins, b1 / b2 = 0.8-1.6; alternatively, b1 / b2 = 0.9-1.3.

[0137] b1 / b3 = 0.9-1.5; optionally, b1 / b3 = 1-1.4. Optionally, b1 / b2 can be 0.9, 1, 1.1, 1.2 or 1.3; b1 / b3 can be 1, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 or 1.4.

[0140] It is understandable that the first leeward side profile 111 can also be called the upper leeward edge; the first windward side profile 112 can also be called the upper windward edge; the second leeward side profile 211 can also be called the middle leeward edge; the second windward side profile 212 can also be called the middle windward edge; the third leeward side profile 311 can also be called the lower leeward edge; and the third windward side profile 312 can also be called the lower windward edge.

[0141] Optionally, the heat exchanger with arc-shaped fins includes fins and heat exchange tubes passing through the fins, wherein the fins include an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3.

[0144] The upper wing segment 1 includes a first endpoint G1 located on the leeward side. The first endpoint G1 can be understood as the uppermost endpoint of the upper leeward edge of the upper wing segment 1, such as... Figure 15 As shown.

[0145] The perpendicular line from the first endpoint G1 falls into the middle segment 2 of the fin. This can be understood as follows: drawing a perpendicular line from the first endpoint G1, the resulting perpendicular line will fall into the middle segment 2 of the fin. Figure 15 As shown.

In this embodiment, the perpendicular line from the first endpoint G1 intersects the first horizontal line p at the third point D3, and there is a certain distance between D3 and D1. This improves the matching degree between the shape of the fins and the unevenness of the air velocity in the duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0149] Optionally, the distance between D2 and D3 is L2, and 2mm≤L2≤40mm.

[0150] The distance between D2 and D3 is L2, optionally 2mm ≤ L2 ≤ 40mm. Optionally, the value of L2 can be 2mm, 5mm, 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, or 40mm. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, there is a certain distance between D3 and D2, which improves the matching degree between the shape of the fins and the unevenness of the air velocity in the air duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0171] Optionally, the upper wing segment 1 includes a straight upper leeward edge and an upper windward edge, the middle wing segment 2 includes a straight middle leeward edge and a middle windward edge, and the lower wing segment 3 includes a straight lower leeward edge and a lower windward edge.

[0174] Optionally, the windward edge 104 of the fin coincides with the leeward edge 105. This allows multiple fins to be continuously formed on a single substrate, reducing the scrap rate during fin processing. Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown.

[0175] Optionally, the vertical line of the first endpoint G1 falls into the area on the windward side of the middle wing segment 2 of the fin.

[0183] Optionally, 0.1 ≤ L2 / L ≤ 2.

[0184] Optionally, the ratio between L2 and L is greater than 0.5.

[0185] This disclosure also provides a heat exchanger. For example... Figures 20 to 23 As shown.

[0186] Optionally, the heat exchanger includes fins and heat exchange tubes passing through the fins. The fins include an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3.

[0187] In this embodiment, the midpoint N1 of the middle leeward edge is located at the upper part of M1, where the extension lines of the upper leeward edge and the lower leeward edge intersect. Optionally, N1 and the aforementioned D1 can be the same location point.

Optionally, the vertical distance between N1 and M1 is equal to the vertical distance between N2 and M2. Figure 20 As shown. The heat exchanger provided in this embodiment improves the matching degree between the shape of the fins and the unevenness of the air velocity in the air duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0192] Optionally, the line containing N1 and M1 is the first line, and the line containing M1 and M2 is the second line, wherein the angle between the first line and the second line is θ1, and 0°<θ1≤60°.

[0197] Optionally, the line containing N1 and N2 is the fourth line, where the angle between the fourth line and the second line is θ3, and 0°≤θ3≤20°.

[0198] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the angle θ3 between the fourth line containing N1 and N2 and the second line containing M1 and M2 can be 0°, that is, the fourth line is parallel to the second line. Figure 23 As shown.

[0199] Optionally, the angle θ3 between the fourth line containing N1 and N2 and the second line containing M1 and M2 can be greater than 0° and less than or equal to 20°.

[0200] This improves the matching degree between the shape of the fins and the unevenness of the air velocity in the air duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0201] This disclosure also provides a heat exchanger. For example... Figures 24 to 27 As shown.

[0202] Optionally, the heat exchanger includes fins and heat exchange tubes passing through the fins, wherein the fins include an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3. The upper fin segment 1 includes an upper fin region formed by an upper leeward edge and an upper windward edge. The upper fin region includes a first upper heat exchange hole 101 near the middle fin region and near the upper leeward edge, and a second upper heat exchange hole 102 near the middle fin region and near the upper windward edge. The middle fin segment 2 is disposed below the upper fin segment 1. The middle fin segment 2 includes a middle fin region formed by a middle leeward edge and a middle windward edge. The middle fin region includes a first middle heat exchange hole 201 near the upper fin region and near the middle leeward edge, and a second middle heat exchange hole 202 near the upper fin region and near the middle windward edge. The lower fin segment 3 is disposed below the middle fin segment 2. The lower fin segment 3 includes a lower fin region formed by a lower leeward edge and a lower windward edge. Wherein, the straight line containing the first upper heat exchange hole 101 and the first middle heat exchange hole 201 is the first heat exchange hole straight line, the straight line containing the second upper heat exchange hole 102 and the second middle heat exchange hole 202 is the second heat exchange hole straight line, the angle between the first heat exchange hole straight line and the second heat exchange hole straight line is β1, and 10°≤β1≤60°.

[0203] In this embodiment, the straight line containing the first upper heat exchange hole 101 and the first middle heat exchange hole 201 is the first heat exchange hole straight line, and the straight line containing the second upper heat exchange hole 102 and the second middle heat exchange hole 202 is the second heat exchange hole straight line. The included angle β1 between the first heat exchange hole straight line and the second heat exchange hole straight line is greater than or equal to 10° and less than or equal to 60°.

[0204] Optionally, the straight line connecting the center of the first upper heat exchange hole 101 and the center of the first middle heat exchange hole 201 can be taken as the first heat exchange hole straight line; similarly, the straight line connecting the center of the second upper heat exchange hole 102 and the center of the second middle heat exchange hole 202 can be taken as the second heat exchange hole straight line. Figure 24 As shown.

[0205] Optionally, the value of β1 can be 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50° or 60°.

[0206] It is understandable that the boundary between the upper wing region formed by the upper wing segment 1 and the middle wing region formed by the middle wing segment 2 can be as follows: Figure 24 The upper dotted line in the diagram shows the boundary between the middle wing region formed by the middle wing segment 2 and the lower wing region formed by the lower wing segment 3. Figure 24As shown by the lower dashed line in the image.

[0207] Understandably, when a heat exchange hole is located in both the upper fin area and the middle fin area, it can be classified as the upper fin area; similarly, when a heat exchange hole is located in both the middle fin area and the lower fin area, it can be classified as the middle fin area.

[0208] Understandably, heat exchange holes are through-holes on the fins used to insert heat exchange tubes. Optionally, the diameter of the heat exchange holes can be adjusted according to the diameter of the heat exchange tubes. Optionally, when the diameters of multiple heat exchange tubes in the heat exchanger are all the same, the diameters of multiple heat exchange holes on the fins are also the same. This improves the matching degree between the fin shape and the unevenness of the air velocity in the air duct, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0209] Optionally, the straight line between the first central heat exchange hole 201 and the second central heat exchange hole 202 is the third heat exchange hole straight line. The central fin region also includes a third central heat exchange hole 203 located between the first central heat exchange hole 201 and the second central heat exchange hole 202, and the third central heat exchange hole 203 is located at the lower part of the third heat exchange hole straight line.

[0210] Similarly, the straight line between the center of the first central heat exchange hole 201 and the center of the second central heat exchange hole 202 can be taken as the straight line of the third heat exchange hole.

[0211] like Figure 25 As shown, the third central heat exchange hole 203 is located at the lower part of the straight line of the third heat exchange hole, or the third central heat exchange hole 203 is located at the upper part of the straight line of the third heat exchange hole. It can be understood that the first central heat exchange hole 201, the second central heat exchange hole 202 and the third central heat exchange hole 203 are not on the same straight line.

[0212] Optionally, the upper fin region also includes a third upper heat exchange hole 103 near the first upper heat exchange hole 101, wherein the third upper heat exchange hole 103 is located on the same line as the first heat exchange hole.

[0213] The fact that the third upper heat exchange hole 103 is located on the same line as the first heat exchange hole can be understood as at least a portion of the third upper heat exchange hole 103 being located on the same line as the first heat exchange hole.

[0214] Optionally, 10°≤β1≤30°.

[0215] Optionally, when β1 is greater than or equal to 10° and less than or equal to 30°, the heat exchanger fins can be irregularly arc-shaped. For example... Figure 24 As shown.

[0216] Optionally, the straight line between the first central heat exchange hole 201 and the second central heat exchange hole 202 is the straight line of the third heat exchange hole. The central fin region also includes a third central heat exchange hole 203 located between the first central heat exchange hole 201 and the second central heat exchange hole 202, and the third central heat exchange hole 203 is located on the straight line of the third heat exchange hole.

[0217] The fact that the third central heat exchange hole 203 is located on the straight line of the third heat exchange hole can be understood as at least a portion of the third central heat exchange hole 203 being located on the straight line of the third heat exchange hole. Alternatively, it can be understood as at least a portion of the first central heat exchange hole 201, at least a portion of the second central heat exchange hole 202, and at least a portion of the third central heat exchange hole 203 being collinear. Figure 27 As shown.

[0218] Optionally, the upper fin region also includes a third upper heat exchange hole 103 near the first upper heat exchange hole 101, wherein the third upper heat exchange hole 103 is located on the straight line of the second heat exchange hole.

[0219] The fact that the third upper heat exchange hole 103 is located on the straight line of the second heat exchange hole can be understood as at least a portion of the third upper heat exchange hole 103 being located on the straight line of the second heat exchange hole.

[0220] Optionally, 25°≤β1≤50°.

[0221] Optionally, when β1 is greater than or equal to 25° and less than or equal to 50°, the heat exchanger fins can be in a regular arc shape. For example... Figure 26 As shown.

[0222] It is understood that, without conflict, the embodiments of the heat exchanger and the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other.

[0223] Figure 33 This is a comparison of velocity distribution contour maps between the heat exchanger of this application and an existing Type I inclined heat exchanger. Among them, Figure 33 Figure a above shows the velocity distribution contour map of an existing Type I inclined heat exchanger. Figure 33 Figure b below is a velocity distribution cloud map of the heat exchangers in various embodiments of this application.

[0224] from Figure 33 As can be seen, the Type I inclined heat exchanger exhibits a high wind speed at the top and a low wind speed at the bottom, resulting in uneven wind speed distribution and low heat exchange efficiency. Specifically, the area with high wind speed at the top is as follows: Figure 33 As shown in the upper circle of 'a', the lower area with low wind speed is as follows: Figure 33 The lower circle of 'a' in the diagram is shown.

[0225] The heat exchanger provided in this application effectively guides the incoming flow from the high-velocity central zone to both the upper and lower sections, resulting in a uniform overall airflow distribution. This uniform airflow distribution improves the uniformity of the heat exchange field, thereby enhancing the overall heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger. Figure 33 As shown in b in the figure.

[0226] Furthermore, the fin slope section of the heat exchanger provided in this application is relatively short, which reduces the risk of poor drainage on the fin surface.

[0227] This disclosure also provides an indoor air conditioning unit, which may also be referred to as a ducted air conditioning device or duct unit.

[0228] Optionally, the indoor unit of the air conditioner includes an indoor unit housing 4, an indoor fan 5, and a heat exchanger. The indoor unit housing 4 has an internal accommodating space; the indoor fan 5 is disposed within the accommodating space; and the heat exchanger is disposed within the accommodating space and located on the exhaust side of the indoor fan 5. The heat exchanger is as described above.

[0229] The indoor air conditioning unit, which includes the aforementioned heat exchanger, improves the heat exchange efficiency between the indoor fan 5 and the heat exchanger.

[0230] This disclosure provides an air conditioner whose heat exchanger can not only adapt to the wind speed at different positions on its windward side, but also avoid the risk of poor drainage on the surface of the heat exchanger, resulting in a better user experience.

[0231] This disclosure provides an air conditioner including a casing, a heat exchanger, and an indoor fan 5. The casing has an installation cavity 41; the heat exchanger is disposed within the installation cavity 41 and includes an upper straight plate section, a middle straight plate section, and a lower straight plate section connected sequentially. The middle straight plate section is vertically arranged, and the upper and lower straight plate sections are positioned above and below the middle straight plate section, respectively, and are bent towards the indoor fan 5; the indoor fan 5 is disposed within the installation cavity 41, and the air outlet direction of the indoor fan 5 is limited to the direction towards the heat exchanger; wherein the included angle α between the upper and middle straight plate sections is greater than or equal to 100°, and the included angle β between the lower and middle straight plate sections is greater than or equal to 100°.

[0232] like Figure 30 As shown, the heat exchanger includes fins and heat exchange tubes passing through the fins. The side view of the heat exchanger, seen from its side, is also a side view of the fins. The statement in this embodiment that "the heat exchanger includes an upper straight plate section, a middle straight plate section, and a lower straight plate section connected in sequence" can be understood as the side view of the heat exchanger including the upper straight plate section, the middle straight plate section, and the lower straight plate section; that is, the fins of the heat exchanger include the upper straight plate section, the middle straight plate section, and the lower straight plate section.

[0233] It is understandable that the upper straight plate segment can also be referred to as the aforementioned upper wing segment, the middle straight plate segment can also be referred to as the aforementioned middle wing segment, and the lower straight plate segment can also be referred to as the aforementioned lower wing segment.

[0234] As shown in Figure x, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, each fin includes an upper fin segment, a middle fin segment, and a lower fin segment. Each fin segment has parallel side contour lines, giving each fin segment a straight plate shape. When multiple fins are arranged in parallel and heat exchange tubes are inserted to form a heat exchanger, the upper fin segments of the multiple fins constitute the upper straight plate section of the heat exchanger, the middle fin segments of the multiple fins constitute the middle straight plate section of the heat exchanger, and the lower fin segments of the multiple fins constitute the lower straight plate section of the heat exchanger. It is understood that, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the upper straight plate section and the upper fin segment essentially mean the same thing, and in some optional embodiments, they can be used interchangeably. Similarly, unless otherwise specified, the middle straight plate section and the middle fin segment essentially mean the same thing, and in some optional embodiments, they can be used interchangeably; the lower straight plate section and the lower fin segment essentially mean the same thing, and in some optional embodiments, they can be used interchangeably.

[0235] Specifically, the side wall of the casing is provided with an air inlet 42 and an air outlet 43, and an air duct is provided in the mounting cavity 41 of the casing, which is connected to the air inlet 42 and the air outlet 43 respectively. The heat exchanger is configured as an integrated plate structure, and the entire heat exchanger is arranged vertically. The indoor fan 5 is arranged in the air duct, and the indoor fan 5 is located on the left or right side of the heat exchanger. The air outlet of the indoor fan 5 is connected to the heat exchanger through the air duct, and the airflow direction blown to the heat exchanger is perpendicular to the heat exchanger to increase the heat exchange efficiency between the heat exchanger and the air. The heat exchanger includes an upper straight plate section, a middle straight plate section, and a lower straight plate section, and the middle straight plate section is arranged vertically. The upper straight plate section is located above the middle straight plate section, and the upper edge of the upper straight plate section is inclined towards the indoor fan 5. The lower straight plate section is located below the middle straight plate section, and the lower edge of the lower straight plate section is inclined towards the indoor fan 5. This allows the heat exchanger to form an overall bow-shaped structure. It is understandable that the air velocity varies at different locations within the duct when it is blown to the heat exchanger. Therefore, setting the heat exchanger to a bow-shaped structure is more conducive to adapting the heat exchanger to the air velocity at different locations on its windward side, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency. At the same time, to increase the heat exchange area, existing straight plate heat exchangers need to be inclined, resulting in a larger horizontal space occupied by the heat exchanger. Therefore, setting the heat exchanger to a bow-shaped structure can increase the heat exchange area while reducing the horizontal space occupied by the heat exchanger.

[0236] In the above embodiment, since the sidewall of the middle straight plate section is a vertical plane, the area of ​​the inclined plane of the entire heat exchanger can be reduced, thereby avoiding the risk of poor drainage on the surface of the heat exchanger. Simultaneously, the included angle α between the upper and middle straight plate sections can be set according to the dimensions of the casing; for example, the included angle α between the upper and middle straight plate sections can be 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, or 140°. It is understood that the heat exchanger will produce condensate during air conditioning operation. Therefore, making the included angle α greater than or equal to 100° can increase the slope of the upper straight plate section, further avoiding the risk of poor drainage on the surface of the heat exchanger. Similarly, the included angle β between the lower and middle straight plate sections can be set according to the dimensions of the casing; for example, the included angle β between the lower and middle straight plate sections can be 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, or 140°.

[0237] In practical applications, some existing heat exchangers are configured as split-type structures to accommodate different air velocities. However, the multiple components of a split-type heat exchanger increase the overall scrap rate during manufacturing, raising production costs. Furthermore, the individual installation of each component increases the difficulty of installation. Therefore, this application proposes a one-piece, bow-shaped heat exchanger structure, which not only accommodates different air velocities but also reduces the scrap rate during manufacturing and simplifies installation.

[0238] Optionally, the connection between the upper and middle straight plate sections is configured with rounded corners to ensure a smooth connection and further avoid the risk of poor drainage on the heat exchanger surface. Similarly, the connection between the lower and middle straight plate sections is also configured with rounded corners to ensure a smooth connection.

[0239] In some embodiments, the thickness of the middle straight plate segment is greater than the thickness of the upper straight plate segment, and the thickness of the middle straight plate segment is greater than the thickness of the lower straight plate segment.

[0240] Specifically, the thickness of the middle straight section is a first thickness A1, the thickness of the upper straight section is a second thickness A2, and the thickness of the lower straight section is a third thickness A3. The first thickness A1 is greater than both the second thickness A2 and the third thickness A3. For example, the second thickness A2 and the third thickness A3 can be 2 / 3 or 1 / 2 of the first thickness A1.

[0241] It is understood that the first thickness A1 of the middle straight plate segment is the width W2 of the second side outline 21 of the aforementioned middle wing segment; the second thickness A2 of the upper straight plate segment is the width W1 of the first side outline 11 of the aforementioned upper wing segment; and the third thickness A3 of the lower straight plate segment is the width W3 of the third side outline 31 of the aforementioned lower wing segment.

[0242] Understandably, when the indoor fan supplies air to the heat exchanger in five directions, the air velocity is highest at the middle straight plate section, while the air velocity at the upper and lower straight plate sections is lower. Therefore, the middle straight plate section is thicker than the upper and lower straight plate sections to ensure sufficient heat exchange in the middle section and to guarantee a more uniform air velocity after the air flows through the heat exchanger.

[0243] In some embodiments, the side wall of the heat exchanger near the indoor fan 5 is configured as the windward side wall, and the side wall of the heat exchanger away from the indoor fan 5 is configured as the leeward side wall; wherein the size and shape of the windward side wall correspond to the size and shape of the leeward side wall.

[0244] Specifically, the dimensions and shape of the windward side wall are the same as those of the leeward side wall. After moving the windward side wall a certain distance horizontally, they can overlap. It is understood that heat exchangers generally include fins, and these fins are typically manufactured from a large sheet of material through shearing or stamping processes. Therefore, making the shape and dimensions of the windward side wall identical to those of the leeward side wall minimizes processing waste between adjacent fins, thus improving the utilization efficiency of raw materials during heat exchanger manufacturing.

[0245] It is understandable that the windward side wall is the aforementioned edge of the windward side, and the leeward side wall is the aforementioned edge of the leeward side.

[0246] like Figure 31 and Figure 32 As shown, in some embodiments, the housing is also provided with a fixing structure 47, which is used to fix the heat exchanger in the mounting cavity.

[0247] Specifically, the side wall of the mounting cavity is also provided with snap-fit ​​components such as clips or fasteners such as screws to form a fixing structure 47. The heat exchanger can be snapped into the mounting cavity by snap-fit ​​components, or the heat exchanger can be fastened to the mounting cavity by fasteners.

[0248] In some embodiments, the included angle α between the upper straight plate segment and the middle straight plate segment is less than or equal to 170°; the included angle β between the lower straight plate segment and the middle straight plate segment is less than or equal to 170°.

[0249] Specifically, the included angle α between the upper and middle straight plate sections can be set according to the height of the mounting cavity. For example, the included angle α can be 170°, 160°, 150°, 140°, or 130°. This allows for a reduction in the overall height of the upper straight plate section while maintaining its heat exchange area. Similarly, the included angle β of the second plate section can be 170°, 160°, 150°, 140°, or 130° to reduce the height of the lower straight plate section.

[0250] In the above embodiments, the height of the upper straight plate segment refers to the distance between the horizontal plane where the upper end face of the upper straight plate segment is located and the horizontal plane where the lower end face is located, and the height of the lower straight plate segment refers to the distance between the horizontal plane where the upper end face of the lower straight plate segment is located and the horizontal plane where the lower end face is located.

[0251] In some embodiments, the first cross-section of the upper straight section is configured as a parallelogram; the second cross-section of the middle straight section is configured as a rectangle; and the third cross-section of the lower straight section has the same dimensions and shape as the first cross-section of the upper straight section.

[0252] Specifically, the first cross-section of the upper straight plate section and the third cross-section of the lower straight plate section are configured as parallelograms, and the middle straight plate section is configured as a rectangle. This makes the overall structure of the heat exchanger simpler and easier to produce and process.

[0253] In some embodiments, the side of the first cross section near the indoor fan 5 forms the upper windward line, the side of the third cross section near the indoor fan 5 forms the lower windward line, and the midpoint of the line segment connecting the upper end point of the upper windward line and the lower end point of the lower windward line forms the reference F; wherein, the first connection angle e1 between the reference point F and the line connecting the upper end point and the lower end point of the upper windward line is greater than or equal to 30° and less than or equal to 160°.

[0254] Specifically, the angle between reference point F and the line connecting the upper and lower endpoints of the upper windward line is the first connecting angle e1. The first connecting angle e1 can be 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, or 160°. This allows the inclination and length of the upper windward line to better match the wind speed at the upper straight section. It can be understood that the side of the first cross-section away from the indoor fan 5 constitutes the upper leeward line. Since the first cross-section is a parallelogram, the upper leeward line is parallel to the upper windward line, meaning the inclination and length of the upper leeward line are the same as those of the upper windward line.

[0255] In some embodiments, the second connection angle e2 between the reference point F and the line connecting the upper and lower endpoints of the lower windward line is greater than or equal to 30° and less than or equal to 160°.

[0256] Specifically, the angle between reference point F and the line connecting the upper and lower endpoints of the lower windward line is the second connecting angle e2. The second connecting angle e2 can be 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, or 160°. This allows the inclination and length of the lower windward line to better match the wind speed at the lower straight section. It can be understood that the side of the third cross-section away from the indoor fan 5 constitutes the lower leeward line. Since the third cross-section is a parallelogram, the lower leeward line is parallel to the lower windward line; that is, the inclination and length of the lower leeward line are the same as those of the lower windward line.

[0257] In some embodiments, the side of the second cross section near the indoor fan 5 constitutes the central windward line; wherein, the third connection angle e3 between the reference point F and the connecting lines of the upper and lower endpoints of the central windward line is greater than or equal to 30° and less than or equal to 160°.

[0258] Specifically, the angle between reference point F and the lines connecting the upper and lower endpoints of the center windward line is the third connecting angle e3. The third connecting angle e3 can be 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, or 160°. This allows the inclination and length of the center windward line to better match the wind speed at the center straight section. It can be understood that the side of the second cross-section away from the indoor fan 5 constitutes the center leeward line. Since the second cross-section is rectangular, the length of the center leeward line is the same as that of the center windward line.

[0259] It is understandable that the upper windward line is the aforementioned first windward side profile line, the middle windward line is the aforementioned second windward side profile line, and the lower windward line is the aforementioned third windward side profile line; the upper leeward line is the aforementioned first leeward side profile line, the middle leeward line is the aforementioned second leeward side profile line, and the lower leeward line is the aforementioned third leeward side profile line.

[0260] This disclosure provides an air conditioner, the indoor unit of which includes an indoor unit housing 4, a volute, an indoor fan 5, and a heat exchanger 6. For example... Figure 38 and Figure 40 As shown, the volute includes a receiving cavity 417 and an air outlet 46. The indoor fan 5 is disposed in the receiving cavity 417, the heat exchanger 6 is disposed in the air outlet 46, and the volute is disposed in the indoor unit housing 4. The indoor unit housing 4 includes an air inlet 42 and an air outlet 43. Outside air flows into the volute through the air inlet 42, passes through the heat exchanger 6, and then flows into the room through the air outlet 43.

[0261] In some embodiments, the volute includes a receiving cavity 417 and an air outlet 46. The receiving cavity 417 is used to install an indoor fan 5, and the air outlet 46 communicates with the outlet 4171 of the receiving cavity 417. A heat exchanger 6 is disposed within the air outlet 46, and the heat exchanger 6 includes a plurality of fins 64 arranged parallel to each other along the axis 418 of the volute. The fins 64 include an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3 connected to each other. The upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3 are both inclined toward the receiving cavity 417, and the middle fin segment 2 includes a second windward profile 212. Figure 39 and Figure 40 As shown, the midpoint of the longitudinal section of the outlet 4171 of the accommodating cavity 417 is the reference point H, and the angle subtended by the second windward profile 212 corresponding to the reference point H is c1, where 6°≤c1≤50°. For example, c1 can be selected as 6°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, or 50°.

[0262] In this embodiment, the orientation of the air conditioner is as follows: Figure 39 As shown, the housing 417 is located at the rear of the air conditioner, and the air outlet 46 is located at the front. The heat exchanger 6 is installed after the air outlet 46. The three sections of the fins 64, from top to bottom, are called the upper fin section 1, the middle fin section 2, and the lower fin section 3. Since the housing 417 of the volute is used to install the indoor fan 5, the axis 418 of the volute is also the axis of the indoor fan 5, as shown... Figure 40 As shown. The cross-section along the front-to-back direction of the air conditioner is called the longitudinal section, and the cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal section is called the cross section. The three-segment fins 64 are arc-shaped or bow-shaped, hence also called arc-shaped fins 64 or bow-shaped fins 64. This shape design guides the airflow. The opening angle c1 of the middle fin segment 2 is designed between 6° and 50°, which helps to optimize the contact angle between the airflow and the middle fin segment 2, making heat exchange more complete and thus improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0263] Optionally, 6°≤c1≤30°. For example, c1 can be 6°, 8°, 12°, 16°, 22°, 26°, 28° or 30°.

[0264] Optionally, the upper wing segment 1, the middle wing segment 2, and the lower wing segment 3 of the wing 64 are integrally formed. For example... Figure 41As shown in (a), to avoid confusion, the upper wing segment 1 includes a first side profile 11, which includes a first windward side profile 112 and a first leeward side profile 111. The middle wing segment 2 includes a second side profile 21, which includes a second windward side profile 212 and a second leeward side profile 211. The lower wing segment 3 includes a third side profile 31, which includes a third windward side profile 312 and a third leeward side profile 311. Furthermore, the first windward side profile 112, the second windward side profile 212, and the third windward side profile 312 form the windward side profile 641, and the first leeward side profile 111, the second leeward side profile 211, and the third leeward side profile 311 form the leeward side profile 642. In this embodiment, the first side contour line 11, the second side contour line 21, and the third side contour line 31 are all straight lines, and the connection between adjacent contour lines may or may not be rounded.

[0265] Optionally, such as Figure 39 As shown, the upper wing segment 1 includes a first windward profile line 112, and the angle of the first windward profile line 112 corresponding to the reference point H is c2. The lower wing segment 3 includes a third windward profile line 312, and the angle of the third windward profile line 312 corresponding to the reference point H is c3.

[0266] In this embodiment, the relationship between c1, c2, and c3 is defined. Specifically, 0.3 ≤ c2 / c1 ≤ 0.7, for example, c2 / c1 can be 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, or 0.7. Also, 0.5 ≤ c3 / c1 ≤ 0.9, for example, c3 / c1 can be 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, or 0.9. Finally, 0.6 ≤ c1 / (c2+c3) ≤ 1, for example, c1 / (c2+c3) can be 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, or 1. By designing the proportional relationship of the three opening angles, the contact angles between the airflow and the three wing segments can be optimized, resulting in a more uniform airflow distribution.

[0267] Optionally, such as Figure 39 As shown, the height of the upper wing segment 1 is h1, the height of the middle wing segment 2 is h2, and the height of the lower wing segment 3 is h3. Furthermore, 0.2 ≤ h2 / (h1+h2+h3) ≤ 0.5. For example, h2 / (h1+h2+h3) can be chosen as 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5. This design, through the height relationship of the three wing segments, allows for matching the distribution of circulating air. With the upper wing segment 1 and the lower wing segment 3 arranged at an angle, the length of the slope section of fin 64 is shorter, reducing the risk of poor drainage on the surface of fin 64.

[0268] Optionally, the height of the longitudinal section of the outlet 4171 of the accommodating cavity 417 is T, and the height of the middle fin segment 2 is h2, where 1 ≤ T / h2 ≤ 2.5. For example, T / h2 can be selected as 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.2, or 2.5. Here, h2 affects the heat exchange area of ​​the middle fin segment 2, and T affects the air outlet area. Through a reasonable proportional design, the air outlet area is matched with the heat exchange area of ​​the middle fin segment 2. Furthermore, combining the design of the three opening angles and the height relationship of the three fin segments, when the wind speed corresponding to the middle fin segment 2 is relatively high, it is beneficial for the air flowing through the middle fin segment 2 to diffuse upwards to the upper fin segment 1 and lower fin segment 3, ensuring that the airflow is matched with the heat exchange area, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0269] Optionally, the middle wing segment 2 also includes a second leeward profile line 211, both of which are straight lines and parallel to each other. Thus, the middle wing segment 2 is straight.

[0270] In some embodiments, the air conditioner includes a volute and a heat exchanger 6. The volute includes an air outlet 46, which includes a first diffuser 411. The heat exchanger 6 is disposed in the air outlet 46 and includes a plurality of fins 64 arranged parallel to each other along the axis 418 of the volute. The fins 64 include a windward profile 641, and the first diffuser 411 extends toward the windward profile 641. Figure 40 As shown, the intersection point of the extension direction of the first diffuser plate 411 and the windward profile line 641 is T1. The length between T1 and the nearest endpoint of the windward profile line 641 is t1, and the total length of the windward profile line 641 is t, with t1 / t ≤ 30%. In this way, the first diffuser plate 411 and the windward profile line 641 intersect, which is beneficial for guiding the airflow. Furthermore, the t1 / t ratio design helps to match the airflow guided by the first diffuser plate 411 with the length of the windward profile line 641, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency.

[0271] In this embodiment, the total length t of the windward side profile 641 is equal to the sum of the lengths of the first windward side profile 112, the second windward side profile 212, and the third windward side profile 312. If the intersection point T1 is closest to the upper end of the windward side profile 641, then t1 is equal to the length between the intersection point T1 and the upper end of the windward side profile 641; if the intersection point T1 is closest to the lower end of the windward side profile 641, then t1 is equal to the length between the intersection point T1 and the lower end of the windward side profile 641.

[0272] Optionally, 5% ≤ t1 / t ≤ 30%. For example, t1 / t can be selected as 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, or 30%.

[0273] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the angle between the first diffuser plate 411 and the horizontal direction is... For example, You can choose 5°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, or 60°. Adjust by... The value of can adjust the position of the intersection point T1, and The smaller the intersection point T1, the closer it is to the upper end of the first windward profile line 112.

[0274] Optionally, the fin 64 includes an upper fin segment 1, a middle fin segment 2, and a lower fin segment 3 connected in sequence, with both the upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3 inclined towards the axis 418 of the volute. The windward profile 641 corresponding to the upper fin segment 1 is called the first windward profile 112, and the extending direction of the first diffuser plate 411 intersects the first windward profile 112 at T1. Here, the first diffuser plate 411 is located at the upper part of the volute.

[0275] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the air outlet 46 also includes a second diffuser 412, which is spaced apart below the first diffuser 411 and extends toward the third windward profile line 312. The intersection point of the extension direction of the second diffuser 412 and the third windward profile line 312 is T2, and the length between T2 and the lower end of the third windward profile line 312 is t2, where t2 / t ≤ 30%. Further, 5% ≤ t2 / t ≤ 30%. For example, t2 / t can be selected as 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, or 30%. In this way, the second diffuser 412 intersects with the third windward profile line 312, which is beneficial for guiding the airflow. Furthermore, the t2 / t ratio design helps to match the airflow guided by the second diffuser 412 with the length of the windward profile line 641.

[0276] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the angle between the second diffuser plate 412 and the horizontal direction For example, You can choose 5°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, or 60°. Adjust by... The value of can adjust the position of the intersection point T2, and The larger the intersection point T2, the closer it is to the lower end of the third windward profile line 312. In this way, the first diffuser plate 411 and the second diffuser plate 412 form a diffusion-type flow guide. and The design of the values, combined with the ratio of t1 / t and t2 / t, enables the air to diffuse evenly towards the heat exchanger 6.

[0277] Optionally, such as Figure 40As shown, the air outlet 46 also includes a third diffuser plate 413, which is connected to the first diffuser plate 411 and extends upward. The fin 64 also includes a leeward profile line 642, and the leeward profile line 642 corresponding to the upper fin segment 1 is called the first leeward profile line 111. Furthermore, the first leeward profile line 111 intersects with the third diffuser plate 413 at an angle γ1, where 20°≤γ1≤90°. For example, γ1 can be selected as 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, or 90°.

[0278] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the air outlet 46 also includes a fourth diffuser 414 and a sixth diffuser 416. The fourth diffuser 414 is connected to the second diffuser 412 and extends downward, while the sixth diffuser 416 is connected to the fourth diffuser 414 and extends upward. The fin 64 also includes a leeward side profile line 642, and the leeward side profile line 642 corresponding to the lower fin segment 3 is called the third leeward side profile line 311. Furthermore, the third leeward side profile line 311 intersects with the sixth diffuser 416 at an angle γ2, where 20°≤γ2≤90°. For example, γ2 can be selected as 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, or 90°.

[0279] In some embodiments, the volute includes a receiving cavity 417 and an air outlet 46, the air outlet 46 including a first air outlet 44 and a second air outlet 45. For example... Figure 40 As shown, the cavity 417 is used to install an indoor fan 5. A first air outlet 44 is connected to the outlet 4171 of the cavity 417, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the first air outlet 44 gradually increases along the airflow direction. A second air outlet 45 is connected to the outlet 441 of the first air outlet 44 and is used to house a heat exchanger 6, and at least a portion of the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the second air outlet 45 is larger than the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the first air outlet 44.

[0280] In this embodiment, the orientation of the air conditioner is as follows: Figure 39As shown, the cross-section along the front-to-back direction of the air conditioner is called the longitudinal section, and the cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal section is called the cross-section. The cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the first air outlet 44 refers to the area of ​​the first air outlet 44 on the cross-section, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the second air outlet 45 refers to the area of ​​the second air outlet 45 on the cross-section. The heat exchanger 6 is entirely disposed within the second air outlet 45, ensuring that all air outlets from the volute exchange heat with the heat exchanger 6. Furthermore, since the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the first air outlet 44 gradually increases along the air outlet direction, a diffusion-type flow is formed, and the reduced flow velocity after diffusion facilitates full contact between the air and the heat exchanger 6. Because the cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in at least a portion of the second air outlet 45 is larger than the maximum cross-sectional area of ​​the gas flow in the first air outlet 44, the abrupt increase in cross-sectional area of ​​the second air outlet 45 acts as a buffer, which is beneficial for the uniform contact between the air and the heat exchanger 6. In this way, the heat exchange efficiency between the air and the heat exchanger 6 is effectively improved through the structural design of the volute.

[0281] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the first air outlet 44 includes a first diffuser plate 411 and a second diffuser plate 412. The first diffuser plate 411 is parallel to the axis 418 of the volute and extends downward. The angle between the first diffuser plate 411 and the horizontal direction is... The second diffuser plate 412 is spaced apart from and non-parallel to the first diffuser plate 411. The second diffuser plate 412 is parallel to the axis 418 of the volute and extends downward. Furthermore, the angle between the second diffuser plate 412 and the horizontal direction is... In this embodiment, the first diffuser plate 411 is located at the upper part of the volute, and the second diffuser plate 412 is located at the lower part of the volute. The first diffuser plate 411 and the second diffuser plate 412 form a diffusion-type flow guide, and through... and The optimized design of the value direction facilitates the uniform diffusion of air towards the heat exchanger 6.

[0282] Optionally, such as Figure 40 As shown, the second air outlet 45 includes a third diffuser 413, a fourth diffuser 414, a fifth diffuser 415, and a sixth diffuser 416. The third diffuser 413 is connected to the first diffuser 411 and extends upwards, with an angle between the extending directions of the third diffuser 413 and the first diffuser 411. and The fourth diffuser plate 414 is connected to the second diffuser plate 412 and extends downwards. The angle between the extending directions of the fourth diffuser plate 414 and the second diffuser plate 412 is [value missing]. and The fifth diffuser plate 415 is connected to the third diffuser plate 413 and extends downwards. The angle between the extending directions of the fifth diffuser plate 415 and the third diffuser plate 413 is [value missing]. and The sixth diffuser plate 416 is connected to the fourth diffuser plate 414 and extends upwards. The angle between the extending directions of the sixth diffuser plate 416 and the fourth diffuser plate 414 is [value missing]. and For example, You can choose 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, or 30°. For example, You can choose 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, or 60°. For example, You can choose 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, or 35°. For example, You can choose 40°, 45°, 50°, 55° or 60°.

[0283] In this embodiment, the volute is installed after the air conditioner is mounted, and the orientation of the air conditioner is as follows: Figure 39 As shown. The diffuser extending upwards refers to extending towards the top of the air conditioner, and extending downwards refers to extending towards the bottom of the air conditioner. Thus, through the design of multiple diffusers in the second air outlet 45, and... and The design of the value of the second air outlet 45 causes the cross-sectional area of ​​the part located upstream of the heat exchanger 6 to suddenly increase, thereby playing a buffering role, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the part of the second air outlet 45 near the air outlet 43 decreases again, thereby playing a role in concentrating the air.

[0284] In some embodiments, the air conditioner includes a heat exchanger 6 and the aforementioned volute. For example... Figure 39 As shown, heat exchanger 6 is disposed in the second air outlet 45. The distance between the outlet 4171 of the accommodating cavity 417 and heat exchanger 6 is U1, and the distance between the outlet 451 of the second air outlet 45 and heat exchanger 6 is U2. Furthermore, 0.1 ≤ U2 / U1 ≤ 2. For example, U2 / U1 can be selected as 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, or 2. By optimizing the value of U2 / U1, it is beneficial to match the airflow distance before and after heat exchanger 6, thereby improving airflow efficiency. In this embodiment, U1 is the minimum distance between the outlet 4171 of the accommodating cavity 417 and the windward profile line 641. U2 is the minimum distance between the outlet 451 of the second air outlet 45 and the leeward profile line 642.

[0285] Optionally, 30mm ≤ U1 ≤ 150mm. For example, U1 can be selected as 30mm, 60mm, 80mm, 100mm, 110mm, 120mm, 130mm or 150mm.

[0286] Optionally, 10 mm ≤ U2 ≤ 150 mm. For example, U2 can be selected as 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm, 110 mm, 120 mm, 130 mm, or 150 mm.

[0287] Optionally, as Figure 39 shown, the height of the upper fin segment 1 is h1, the height of the middle fin segment 2 is h2, and the height of the lower fin segment 3 is h3. And, 0.3 ≤ U1 / (h1 + h2 + h3) ≤ 2. For example, U1 / (h1 + h2 + h3) can be selected as 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.7, or 2. Among them, U1 affects the flow state of the air before entering the heat exchanger 6. If the spacing is too small, it may cause uneven velocity distribution of the air when entering the heat exchanger 6. If the spacing is too large, it may increase the flow loss. The value of h1 + h2 + h3 affects the overall heat transfer height of the fin 64. By optimizing the ratio of U1 / (h1 + h2 + h3), it is ensured that the air flows uniformly and efficiently into contact with the fin 64.

[0288] In some embodiments, the heat exchanger 6 includes fins 64, and the fins 64 include a middle fin segment 2, an upper fin segment 1, and a lower fin segment 3. As Figure 41 (b) shown, the surface of the middle fin segment 2 is provided with a first heat transfer unit 12, and the first heat transfer unit 12 includes P1 first heat transfer structures 121. The upper fin segment 1 is bent and connected to the upper end of the middle fin segment 2, and the surface is provided with a second heat transfer unit 13, and the second heat transfer unit 13 includes P2 second heat transfer structures 131. The lower fin segment 3 is bent and connected to the lower end of the middle fin segment 2, and is on the same side of the middle fin segment 2 as the upper fin segment 1. The surface of the lower fin segment 3 is provided with a third heat transfer unit 14, and the third heat transfer unit 14 includes P3 third heat transfer structures 141. Among them, 1 ≤ P1 < P2, and / or, 1 ≤ P1 < P3, and / or, 1 ≤ P3 < P2.

[0289] In this embodiment, the functions of the first heat transfer structure 121, the second heat transfer structure 131, and the third heat transfer structure 141 are all to enhance the heat transfer capacity of the corresponding fin segments. When the upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3 are bent, it will affect the direction and velocity of the air flowing through. By optimizing the numerical relationship of P1, P2, and P3, it is possible to adapt to the air flow characteristics of different fin segments, guide the air flow of the middle fin segment 2 to the upper fin segment 1 and the lower fin segment 3, and thus improve the overall heat transfer efficiency of the fin 64.

[0290] Optionally, 1 ≤ P1 ≤ 10. For example, P1 can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Optionally, 1 ≤ P2 ≤ 10. For example, P2 can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Optionally, 1 ≤ P3 ≤ 10. For example, P3 can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. For example, each first heat transfer unit 12 includes 2 first heat transfer structures 121. Each second heat transfer unit 13 includes 4 second heat transfer structures 131. Each third heat transfer unit 14 includes 3 third heat transfer structures 141. That is, P1 = 2, P2 = 4, P3 = 3.

[0292] Optionally, the first heat transfer structure 121 and / or the second heat transfer structure 131 and / or the third heat transfer structure 141 are configured as louver structures 66, such as... Figure 43 As shown. The louver structure 66 includes a top wall 661 that is not parallel to the fins 64, and side walls 662 at both ends of the top wall 661 that are connected to the fins 64 respectively.

[0293] Optionally, 0.5mm≤zn1≤0.7mm, and / or 1mm≤zn2≤1.8mm, and / or 5mm≤zn3≤10mm, and / or 10°≤zn4≤90°, and / or zn5≤2mm.

[0294] In this embodiment, n represents the nth heat transfer structure. For example, when n=1, z11 represents the height of the bridge structure 65 or louver structure 66 corresponding to the first heat transfer structure 121; when n=2, z21 represents the height of the bridge structure 65 or louver structure 66 corresponding to the second heat transfer structure 131; when n=3, z31 represents the height of the bridge structure 65 or louver structure 66 corresponding to the third heat transfer structure 141, and so on. It should be noted that when the first heat transfer unit 12 has multiple bridge structures 65 or louver structures 66, the height of all bridge structures 65 or louver structures 66 is within the range of zn1.

[0295] Optionally, the characteristic parameters of the first heat transfer structure 121, the second heat transfer structure 131, and the third heat transfer structure 141 may be the same or different, and / or, some or all of the characteristic parameters of the first heat transfer structure 121 may be the same or different, and / or, some or all of the characteristic parameters of the second heat transfer structure 131 may be the same or different, and / or, some or all of the characteristic parameters of the third heat transfer structure 141 may be the same or different.

For example, z14 can be 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, or 90°. When the first heat transfer structure 121 is a bridge structure 65, 1mm ≤ z15 ≤ 2mm; for example, z15 can be 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, or 2mm. When the first heat transfer structure 121 is a louver structure 66, 0 ≤ z15 ≤ 2mm; z15 = 0mm indicates that the two louver structures 66 have no gap.

[0298] Optionally, 0.5 mm ≤ z21 ≤ 0.7 mm, and / or, 1 mm ≤ z22 ≤ 1.3 mm, and / or, 5 mm ≤ z23 ≤ 10 mm, and / or, 10° ≤ z24 ≤ 90°, and / or, z25 ≤ 1.7 mm; z21 is the height of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the second heat transfer structure 131, z22 is the width of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the second heat transfer structure 131, z23 is the length of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the second heat transfer structure 131, and z25 is the spacing between adjacent bridge chip structures 65 or louver structures 66 corresponding to the second heat transfer structure 131.

[0299] For example, z21 can be selected as 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm or 0.7 mm. For example, z22 can be selected as 1 mm, 1.2 mm or 1.3 mm. For example, z23 can be selected as 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm or 10 mm. For example, z24 can be selected as 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60° or 90°.

When the second heat transfer structure 131 is the louver structure 66, 0 mm ≤ z25 ≤ 1.7 mm, and when z25 = 0 mm, it means that there is no gap between the two louver structures 66.

[0300] Optionally, 0.5 mm < z31 < 0.7 mm, and / or, 1.6 mm < z32 < 1.8 mm, and / or, 5 mm ≤ z33 ≤ 10 mm, and / or, 10° ≤ z34 ≤ 90°, and / or, z35 ≤ 1.7 mm; z31 is the height of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the third heat transfer structure 141, z32 is the width of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the third heat transfer structure 141, z33 is the length of the bridge chip structure 65 or the louver structure 66 corresponding to the third heat transfer structure 141, and z35 is the spacing between adjacent bridge chip structures 65 or louver structures 66 corresponding to the third heat transfer structure 141.

[0301] For example, z31 can be 0.5mm, 0.6mm, or 0.7mm. For example, z32 can be 1.6mm, 1.7mm, or 1.8mm. For example, z33 can be 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, or 10mm. For example, z34 can be 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, or 90°. When the third heat transfer structure 141 is a bridge structure 65, 1.1mm ≤ z35 ≤ 1.7mm; for example, z35 can be 1.1mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, 1.6mm, or 1.7mm. When the third heat transfer structure 141 is a louver structure 66, 0mm ≤ z35 ≤ 1.7mm; z35 = 0mm indicates that the two louver structures 66 have no gap.

[0302] Optionally, such as Figure 45 As shown, the drag coefficient of the middle wing segment 2 is f1, the drag coefficient of the upper wing segment 1 is f2, and the drag coefficient of the lower wing segment 3 is f3; wherein, f1 < f2, and / or, f1 < f3, and / or, f2 = f3.

[0303] In this embodiment, by optimizing the drag coefficients of the three wing segments, the design parameters of different wing segments can be matched. Here, the drag coefficients can be determined as follows:

[0304] f = 2F / (ρ*(v^2)), where f is the drag coefficient, F is the drag, ρ is the air density, and v is the wind speed. Furthermore, the drag corresponding to the middle wing segment 2 is denoted as F1, and the corresponding wind speed is v1; the drag corresponding to the upper wing segment 1 is denoted as F2, and the corresponding wind speed is v2; the drag corresponding to the lower wing segment 3 is denoted as F3, and the corresponding wind speed is v3.

[0305] Since the change in air density is very small, the air density corresponding to each wing segment can be considered equal. Because the pressure difference before and after the airflow passes through each wing segment is very close, F1 = F2 = F3 can be assumed. Therefore, f ∝ 1 / (v^2), meaning f and v are inversely proportional. When f1 < f2, v1 is greater than v2; when f1 < f3, v1 is greater than v3. When f2 = f3, v2 equals v3.

[0306] Optionally, in the upper wing segment 1 or the lower wing segment 3, the drag coefficient is greater in the region farther away from the middle wing segment 2.

[0307] For example, such as Figure 46As shown in (a), the upper wing segment 1 includes a first drag zone and a second drag zone. The first drag zone is close to the middle wing segment 2, and the second drag zone is located on the side of the first drag zone away from the middle wing segment 2. Furthermore, the drag coefficient corresponding to the first drag zone is f21, and the drag coefficient corresponding to the second drag zone is f22, and f1 < f21 < f22.

[0308] For example, such as Figure 46 (b) The lower wing segment 3 includes a third drag zone and a fourth drag zone. The third drag zone is close to the middle wing segment 2, and the fourth drag zone is located on the side of the third drag zone away from the middle wing segment 2. Furthermore, the drag coefficient corresponding to the third drag zone is f31, and the drag coefficient corresponding to the fourth drag zone is f32, and f1 < f31 < f32.

[0309] Optionally, the upper wing segment 1 is provided with a first upper heat insulation structure 121 of length E1, the middle wing segment 2 is provided with a first middle heat insulation structure 131 of length E2 and a second middle heat insulation structure 132 of length E3, and E1 > E2; and / or, E3 > E1.

[0310] The upper fin segment 1 is provided with a first upper heat insulation structure 121, and the middle fin segment 2 is provided with a first middle heat insulation structure 131 and a second middle heat insulation structure 132. Optionally, the heat insulation structure is a heat insulation strip in the shape of a long strip. The length E1 of the first upper heat insulation structure 121 is greater than the length E2 of the first middle heat insulation structure 131. Thus, the longer first upper heat insulation structure 121 effectively blocks the ineffective heat transfer of the heat exchange tubes installed on the upper fin segment 1 through the fin structure, thereby improving the heat transfer effect of the upper fin segment 1. The fins are integral fins, without the situation of splicing several fins. When the temperature difference between adjacent heat exchange tubes is large, for example, one heat exchange tube is a heat exchange inlet tube and the other is a heat exchange outlet tube, the temperature of the fin surface is greatly affected by the two adjacent heat exchange tubes. The fins provided in this embodiment are provided with heat insulation structures, which effectively block the ineffective heat transfer of the heat exchange tubes through the fin structure, thereby improving the heat transfer effect of the integral fins.

[0311] Figure 49 (a) is a temperature distribution cloud map of the fins without insulation. Figure 49 (b) is a temperature distribution cloud map of the fins provided with the heat insulation structure provided in the embodiments of this disclosure. A comparison of selected portions of the two figures shows that the fins with the heat insulation structure effectively block ineffective heat exchange through the heat exchange tube via the fin structure.

[0312] Optionally, the middle wing segment 2 is further provided with a second middle heat insulation structure 132, and the length E3 of the second middle heat insulation structure 132 is greater than the length E1 of the first upper heat insulation structure 121. It can be seen that the middle wing segment 2 has a first middle heat insulation structure 131 and a second middle heat insulation structure 132 of unequal length. Optionally, compared to the second middle heat insulation structure 132, the first middle heat insulation structure 131 is closer to the upper wing segment 1.

[0318] The total length EZ1 of the thermal insulation structure of the upper fin segment 1 can be designed based on the length EB1 of the first leeward profile line 111 and / or the length EY1 of the first windward profile line 112. For example, EZ1 can be 0.6*EB1, 0.65*EB1, 0.7*EB1, 0.75*EB1, 0.8*EB1, 0.85*EB1, 0.9*EB1, or 0.95*EB1.

[0320] The total length EZ2 of the insulation structure of the middle fin segment 2 can be designed based on the length EB2 of the second leeward profile line 211 and / or the length EY2 of the second windward profile line 212. For example, EZ2 can be 0.7*EB2, 0.75*EB2, 0.8*EB2, 0.85*EB2, 0.9*EB2, or 0.95*EB2. Alternatively, EZ2 can be 0.7*EY2, 0.75*EY2, 0.8*EY2, 0.85*EY2, 0.9*EY2, or 0.95*EY2.
