[0023] The working principle of the above structure is: the high-temperature and high-pressure medium is input into the tank body 1 from the input port, and the low-temperature and low-pressure medium passes through the tank body 1 through the low-pressure pipe 4. When the low-temperature and low-pressure medium passes through the low-pressure pipe 4, it exchanges heat with the inside of the tank body 1 through the low-pressure pipe 4 and the heat exchange fins 6, so that the high-temperature and high-pressure medium is quickly cooled down, and the temperature of the low-temperature and low-pressure medium is increased. The high-temperature and high-pressure medium is quickly liquefied and dried by the drying bag 7 and accumulated at the bottom of the tank body 1, and is sucked out from the output port by the liquid suction pipe 5.

[0026] In another embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the low-pressure pipe 4 is coaxially arranged with the tank body 1, and the liquid suction pipe 5 is arranged on one side of the low-pressure pipe 4, so that the low-pressure pipe 4 can adopt a larger caliber and is easy to assemble.

[0027] Optionally, the low-pressure pipe 4 is a straight pipe.

[0028] Optionally, the portion of the low-pressure pipe 4 located below the drying bag 7 is a straight pipe, and the portion of the low-pressure pipe 4 located above the drying bag 7 is a spiral pipe, so as to increase the length of the low-pressure pipe 4 in the tank body 1 and thereby improve the heat exchange efficiency.
