Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air conditioning, for example, to an air pipe component, a variable split heat exchanger and an air conditioning system. Background Art

[0002] The header component is a common component of the heat exchanger, generally including an air pipe component and a liquid pipe component connected to both ends of the heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger, so as to collect or distribute the refrigerant in multiple heat exchange branches of the heat exchanger.

[0003] When the air conditioner is in heating mode, the heating performance of the air conditioner is better when multiple heat exchange branches of the outdoor heat exchanger are connected in parallel. At this time, the connection mode between the manifold component and each heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger becomes one of the main factors affecting the refrigerant distribution amount of each heat exchange branch. When the amount of refrigerant distributed to each heat exchange branch is relatively uniform, the heat exchange effect of the entire heat exchanger is better; when the amount of refrigerant distributed between different heat exchange branches is quite different, the heat exchange effect of the entire heat exchanger is poor.

[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that there are at least the following problems in the related art:

[0005] The existing heat exchanger has a header component with uneven refrigerant distribution, which affects the overall heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger.

[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0007] In order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. The summary is not an extensive review, nor is it intended to identify key / critical components or delineate the scope of protection of these embodiments, but rather serves as a prelude to the detailed description that follows.

[0015] In some optional embodiments, the liquid pipe component also includes: a third liquid pipe branch, which is connected to the third heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger and is connected to the liquid valve conduction outflow end side of the liquid pipe conduction component arranged in the liquid collecting pipe; and a fourth liquid pipe branch, which is connected to the fourth heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger and is connected to the liquid valve conduction outflow end side of the liquid pipe conduction component arranged in the liquid collecting pipe, wherein the distance between the second liquid pipe branch and the third liquid pipe branch is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold Y2.

[0016] In some optional embodiments, Y2 ≥ 100 mm.

[0017] In some optional embodiments, the liquid pipe component also includes a main pipe section, which is connected to the liquid collecting pipe, and the third liquid pipe branch and the fourth liquid pipe branch are respectively connected to the main pipe section, the main pipe section includes a first main pipe connecting end connected to the liquid collecting pipe, and a second main pipe connecting end connected to the third liquid pipe branch and the fourth liquid pipe branch, wherein the distance between the first main pipe connecting end and the second main pipe connecting end is H1, 15mm≤H1≤70mm; and / or, the third liquid pipe branch includes a first connecting end connected to the third heat exchange branch, and the shortest distance between the first connecting end and the outer wall of the liquid collecting pipe is H2, 25mm≤H2≤90mm; and / or, the fourth liquid pipe branch includes a second connecting end connected to the fourth heat exchange branch, and the shortest distance between the second connecting end and the outer wall of the liquid collecting pipe is H3, 25mm≤H3≤90mm.

[0020] In some optional embodiments, the distance between the bottom end of the discrete element and the bottom end of the separation pipe segment is h1, h1≥50mm; and / or, the distance between the first connection point between the separation pipe segment and the outflow pipe segment and the bottom end of the discrete element is h2, h2≥5mm.

[0021] In some embodiments, an air conditioning system includes a variable split heat exchanger as described above.

[0022] The air pipe component, variable split heat exchanger and air conditioning system provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve the following technical effects:

[0023] The air pipe component includes an air collecting pipe, an air pipe conducting component, a first air pipe branch pipe and a second air pipe branch pipe. The first air pipe branch pipe is used to communicate with the first heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger, and the second air pipe branch pipe is used to communicate with the second heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger.

[0024] In this way, the refrigerant flowing out of the first heat exchange branch through the first air pipe branch and the refrigerant flowing out of the second heat exchange branch through the second air pipe branch both need to overcome the resistance caused by the air pipe conducting component before they can flow out of the outlet of the collecting pipe. Moreover, since the first air pipe branch is arranged at the lower part of the second air pipe branch, the refrigerant flowing out of the second air pipe branch will be impacted by the refrigerant flowing out of the first air pipe branch, so that the refrigerant flowing out of the first air pipe branch increases the flow pressure of the refrigerant in the second air pipe branch.

[0025] In the existing air pipe components, the first air pipe branch is connected to the lower part of the air collecting pipe, and the axis of the first air pipe branch is colinear with the axis of the air collecting pipe. In this way, the refrigerant flowing out through the first air pipe branch creates a large impact pressure on the refrigerant flowing out of the second air pipe branch, that is, a blocking effect occurs, which reduces the refrigerant amount of the second heat exchange branch connected to the second air pipe branch, thereby making the refrigerant distribution amount of each heat exchange branch of the entire heat exchanger uneven.

[0026] In the air pipe component provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the angle between the first air pipe branch and the air collecting pipe is a, and a>0°. In this way, the impact pressure of the refrigerant flowing out of the first air pipe branch on the refrigerant flowing out of the second air pipe branch is reduced, and the refrigerant amount of the second heat exchange branch connected to the second air pipe branch is increased, thereby improving the uniformity of the refrigerant distribution amount of each heat exchange branch of the entire heat exchanger, thereby improving the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger.

[0050] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.

[0051] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air pipe component 100, including an air collecting pipe 105, an air pipe conducting component 106, a first air pipe branch 101 and a second air pipe branch 102. The air pipe conducting component 106 is connected to the air collecting pipe 105, and the air pipe conducting component 106 includes an air valve conducting inlet end and an air valve conducting outflow end; the first air pipe branch 101 is used to be connected to the first heat exchange branch 31 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the air valve conducting inlet end side of the air pipe conducting component 106 arranged in the air collecting pipe 105; the second air pipe branch 102 is used to be connected to the second heat exchange branch 32 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the air valve conducting inlet end side of the air pipe conducting component 106 arranged in the air collecting pipe 105. Among them, the first air pipe branch 101 is arranged at the lower part of the second air pipe branch 102, and the angle between the first air pipe branch 101 and the air collecting pipe 105 is a, and a>0°. Figures 1 to 10 shown.

[0052] In the air pipe component 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the angle between the first air pipe branch 101 and the air collecting pipe 105 is a, and a>0°. Thus, compared with the connection method of docking the pipe openings of the first air pipe branch 101 and the air collecting pipe 105, the air pipe component 100 provided in the present embodiment reduces the blocking effect of the refrigerant flowing out of the first air pipe branch 101 on the refrigerant flowing out of the second air pipe branch 102 during the upward flow along the air collecting pipe 105, thereby increasing the amount of refrigerant in the second heat exchange branch 32 connected to the second air pipe branch 102, thereby improving the refrigerant distribution uniformity of each heat exchange branch of the heat exchanger. Figure 3 shown.

[0053] Optionally, the angle between the first tracheal branch 101 and the tracheal collecting pipe 105 is a, and 60°≤a≤100°.

[0054] The first air duct branch 101 includes a branch connecting end connected to the first heat exchange branch 31, and a collecting pipe connecting end connected to the collecting pipe 105. When 60°≤a<90°, the first air duct branch 101 is inclined upward from the branch connecting end to the collecting pipe connecting end; when a=90°, the first air duct branch 101 is vertically connected to the collecting pipe 105; when 90°<a≤100°, the first air duct branch 101 is inclined downward from the branch connecting end to the collecting pipe connecting end.

[0055] Optionally, the air pipe component 100 further includes a third air pipe branch 103 and a fourth air pipe branch 104. The third air pipe branch 103 is used to communicate with the third heat exchange branch 33 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the side of the air valve conduction outflow end of the air pipe conduction component 106 disposed in the air collecting pipe 105; the fourth air pipe branch 104 is used to communicate with the fourth heat exchange branch 34 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the side of the air valve conduction outflow end of the air pipe conduction component 106 disposed in the air collecting pipe 105, wherein the third air pipe branch 103 is disposed at the lower part of the fourth air pipe branch 104.

[0056] The third air pipe branch 103 and the fourth air pipe branch 104 are respectively connected to the third heat exchange branch 33 and the fourth heat exchange branch 34. Optionally, the third air pipe branch 103 is vertically connected to the air collecting pipe 105, and similarly, the fourth air pipe branch 104 is vertically connected to the air collecting pipe 105.

[0057] The following Table 1 shows the outlet temperatures of the first heat exchange branch 31, the second heat exchange branch 32, the third heat exchange branch 33 and the fourth heat exchange branch 34 when the first air pipe branch 101 is connected in different ways, the variable split heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, and the air-conditioning system is in low-temperature heating conditions.

[0058]

[0059] Table 1

[0060] It can be seen from Table 1 that under low-temperature heating conditions, when the first air pipe branch 101 is butt-connected to the air collecting pipe 105, the outlet temperature of the second heat exchange branch 32 is relatively high, which is -0.5°C, and the maximum temperature difference between different heat exchange branches is 7.3°C, and the amount of refrigerant in different heat exchange branches of the heat exchanger is quite different. When the angle a between the first air pipe branch 101 and the air collecting pipe 105 is 90°, the outlet temperature of the second heat exchange branch 32 is reduced to -3.8°C, and the maximum temperature difference between different heat exchange branches is 2.2°C, and the difference in the amount of cold in different heat exchange branches of the heat exchanger is reduced, which improves the heat exchange uniformity of different heat exchange branches of the heat exchanger, thereby improving the overall heat exchange efficiency of the heat exchanger.

[0061] The disclosed embodiment also provides a variable split flow heat exchanger.

[0062] The variable split flow heat exchanger comprises an air pipe component 100 and a heat exchange tube group. The heat exchange tube group comprises a first heat exchange branch 31, a second heat exchange branch 32, a third heat exchange branch 33 and a fourth heat exchange branch 34. The air pipe component is the air pipe component 100 as described above.

[0063] The variable split flow heat exchanger further includes a liquid pipe component 200 , wherein the liquid pipe component 200 includes a liquid collecting pipe 205 , a liquid pipe conducting component 206 , a first liquid pipe branch 201 , a second liquid pipe branch 202 , a third liquid pipe branch 203 and a fourth liquid pipe branch 204 . The liquid pipe conducting component 206 is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 205, and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 includes a liquid valve conducting inlet end and a liquid valve conducting outflow end; the first liquid pipe branch 201 is connected to the first heat exchange branch 31 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the liquid valve conducting inlet end side of the liquid pipe conducting component 206 arranged in the liquid collecting pipe 205; the second liquid pipe branch 202 is connected to the second heat exchange branch 32 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the liquid valve conducting outflow end side of the liquid pipe conducting component 206 arranged in the liquid collecting pipe 205; the third liquid pipe branch 203 is connected to the third heat exchange branch 33 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the liquid valve conducting outflow end side of the liquid pipe conducting component 206 arranged in the liquid collecting pipe 205; the fourth liquid pipe branch 204 is connected to the fourth heat exchange branch 34 of the heat exchanger, and is connected to the liquid valve conducting outflow end side of the liquid pipe conducting component 206 arranged in the liquid collecting pipe 205. like Figures 4 to 8 shown.

[0064] In the variable flow split heat exchanger provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the gas collecting pipe 105 is provided with a gas pipe conducting component 106, and the liquid collecting pipe 205 is provided with a liquid pipe conducting component 206. Optionally, the gas pipe conducting component 106 is embedded in the gas collecting pipe 105, and the gas pipe conducting component 106 includes an electromagnetic one-way valve, an electromagnetic valve, a one-way conducting structure, etc. When the variable flow split heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the gas pipe conducting component 106 is turned on, and when the variable flow split heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the gas pipe conducting component 106 is turned off.

[0065] Similarly, the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is embedded in the liquid collecting pipe 205, and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 includes an electromagnetic one-way valve, an electromagnetic valve, a one-way conducting structure, etc. When the variable split heat exchanger is used as an evaporator, the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is turned on, and when the variable split heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is turned off.

[0066] When the variable split flow heat exchanger provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is used as an evaporator, the gas pipe conducting component 106 and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 are connected, and the refrigerant entering through the liquid collecting pipe 205 flows through the first heat exchange branch 31, the second heat exchange branch 32, the third heat exchange branch 33 and the fourth heat exchange branch 34 respectively. The four heat exchange branches are connected in parallel, such as Fig. 9 When the variable split flow heat exchanger is used as a condenser, the gas pipe conducting component 106 and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 are closed, and the refrigerant entering through the gas collecting pipe 105 first flows through the fourth heat exchange branch 34 and the third heat exchange branch 33, and then flows through the second heat exchange branch 32, and finally flows out after completing the heat exchange through the first heat exchange branch 31, as shown in FIG. Fig.10 shown.

[0067] Optionally, a distance M1 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is less than or equal to a first distance threshold Y1.

[0068] After the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant flows out through the liquid pipe conducting component 206, the liquid refrigerant therein has the characteristic of sticking to the wall flow, especially under low temperature thermal conditions. In the variable split flow heat exchanger provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance M1 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is less than or equal to the first distance threshold Y1, so that the liquid refrigerant flowing out through the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is facilitated to enter the second liquid pipe branch 202, thereby increasing the refrigerant distribution amount of the second heat exchange branch 32. Optionally, Y1≤75mm. For example, the distance M1 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the liquid pipe conducting component 206 is 15-50mm.

[0069] Optionally, a distance M2 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the third liquid pipe branch 203 is greater than or equal to a second distance threshold Y2.

[0070] The distance M2 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the third liquid pipe can be appropriately increased. For example, the distance M2 between the two is greater than or equal to the second distance threshold Y2, and optionally, Y2 ≥ 100 mm. The distance M2 between the second liquid pipe branch 202 and the third liquid pipe branch 203 can be 105-175 mm.

[0071] Optionally, the liquid pipe component 200 further includes a main pipe section 207, which is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 205, and the third liquid pipe branch pipe 203 and the fourth liquid pipe branch pipe 204 are respectively connected to the main pipe section 207, and the main pipe section 207 includes a first main pipe connecting end 2071 connected to the liquid collecting pipe 205, and a second main pipe connecting end 2072 connected to the third liquid pipe branch pipe 203 and the fourth liquid pipe branch pipe 204, wherein the first main pipe connecting end 2071 and the second main pipe connecting end 2072 are connected to each other. The distance is H1, 15mm≤H1≤70mm; and / or, the third liquid pipe branch 203 includes a first connection end connected to the third heat exchange branch 33, and the shortest distance between the first connection end and the outer wall of the liquid collecting pipe 205 is H2, 25mm≤H2≤90mm; and / or, the fourth liquid pipe branch 204 includes a second connection end connected to the fourth heat exchange branch 34, and the shortest distance between the second connection end and the outer wall of the liquid collecting pipe 205 is H3, 25mm≤H3≤90mm. Figure 7 shown.

[0072] After the refrigerant flows through the main pipe section 207, it flows into the fourth liquid pipe branch 204 and the third liquid pipe branch 203 respectively. At this time, the horizontal length of the main pipe section 207 should not be too long, otherwise, too much refrigerant will be diverted to the third liquid pipe branch 203 under the action of gravity, so that too much refrigerant flows into the third heat exchange branch 33, and too little refrigerant flows into the fourth heat exchange branch 34. In the disclosed embodiment, 15mm≤H1≤70mm, so that while the refrigerant distribution amount of the third heat exchange branch 33 is increased, the amount of refrigerant in the fourth heat exchange branch 34 will not be too little. The uniformity of the refrigerant flow between the heat exchange flow paths of the heat exchanger is improved.

[0073] The first connection end can be understood as the first expansion connection end where the fourth liquid pipe branch 204 is expanded and connected to the fourth heat exchange branch 34. Similarly, the second connection end can be understood as the second expansion connection end where the third liquid pipe branch 203 is expanded and connected to the third heat exchange branch 33.

[0074] Usually, the heat exchange tubes of the heat exchange flow path of the heat exchanger are connected to the branch pipes of the manifold component by expansion welding, and during expansion welding, a closing structure is provided at the connection between the heat exchange tubes and the branch pipes to improve the connection stability between the two. The shortest distance between the first connection end or the second connection end and the outer wall of the manifold 205 should not be too large, otherwise, too much refrigerant will flow into the third heat exchange branch 33 through the third liquid pipe branch 203 under the action of gravity, and the refrigerant obtained by the fourth heat exchange branch 34 located at the upper part will be too little, thereby reducing the uniformity of the refrigerant amount between the heat exchange flow paths of the heat exchanger. The shortest distance between the first connection end and the outer wall of the manifold 205 is H2, 25mm≤H2≤90mm, and further, 35mm≤H2≤70mm. Similarly, the shortest distance between the second connection end and the outer wall of the manifold 205 is H3, 25mm≤H3≤90mm, and further, 35mm≤H3≤70mm. In this way, while increasing the refrigerant distribution amount of the third heat exchange branch 33, the amount of refrigerant in the fourth heat exchange branch 34 will not be too small, thereby improving the uniformity of the refrigerant flow between the heat exchange flow paths of the heat exchanger.

[0075] Optionally, the main pipe section 207 is arranged in the horizontal direction, so that the main pipe section 207 and the third liquid pipe branch 203 and the fourth liquid pipe branch 204 form a Y-shaped three-way pipe that is arranged transversely.

[0076] Optionally, the liquid pipe component 200 further includes a discrete element 208, which is disposed in the path of the refrigerant flow and is used to discrete the refrigerant flowing into the liquid collecting pipe 205. Figure 5 shown.

[0077] The liquid pipe component 200 is a flow collecting and diverting component of the heat exchanger. The refrigerant flowing into the liquid pipe component 200 can be diverted through multiple liquid pipe branches and then flow into different heat exchange branches of the variable diverting heat exchanger. Among them, liquid diversion uniformity, certainty and stability are important indicators for the liquid pipe component 200 to play a diversion role.

[0078] The liquid pipe component 200 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is provided with a discrete element 208 in the path of the refrigerant circulation to discretely separate the gaseous refrigerant and the liquid refrigerant flowing into the liquid collecting pipe 205, and the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is dispersed at the discrete element 208, thereby improving the uniformity of the gas-liquid mixing of the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant. In this way, the certainty and accuracy of the refrigerant distribution amount when the liquid collecting pipe 205 distributes the refrigerant each time are improved, and the liquid separation effect of the liquid pipe component 200 is improved, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the variable split heat exchanger and the operating stability of the air conditioning system.

[0079] Optionally, the liquid pipe component 200 also includes a liquid pipe inlet pipe, including a separation pipe section 209 and an outflow pipe section 210 that are interconnected, the outflow pipe section 210 is connected to the liquid collecting pipe 205, and the discrete element 208 is arranged in the outflow pipe section 210. The refrigerant enters the outflow pipe section 210 after passing through the separation pipe section 209, and enters the liquid collecting pipe 205 through the discrete element 208.

[0080] Optionally, the separation pipe section 209 of the liquid inlet pipe can be a U-shaped pipe. The refrigerant flows in the U-shaped separation pipe section 209, which has a certain centrifugal and accelerating effect, which is conducive to liquid separation between different branch pipes after entering the collecting pipe 205.

[0081] Taking the U-shaped separation pipe section 209 of the liquid inlet pipe as an example, after the refrigerant passes through the U-shaped separation pipe section 209, due to the centrifugal force, the liquid refrigerant in the two-phase refrigerant gathers on the outside of the U-shaped curved wall, and the gaseous refrigerant gathers in the middle of the U-shaped curved wall, forming an unevenly mixed gas-liquid two-phase state, which affects the certainty of the amount of refrigerant entering each liquid pipe branch, especially the certainty of the amount of refrigerant entering the first liquid pipe branch 201. For the first liquid pipe branch 201, it may even happen that under the same operating conditions, the amount of refrigerant flowing into the first liquid pipe branch 201 at different times varies greatly, affecting the heat exchange effect of the heat exchanger.

[0082] It can be understood that the specific shape of the liquid inlet pipe can also be an L-shape, a multi-stage wavy shape, etc.

[0083] The liquid pipe component 200 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure and the setting of the discrete element 208 can break up the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant flowing out of the liquid pipe inlet pipe, thereby improving the mixing uniformity of the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant, thereby reducing the difference in the amount of refrigerant flowing into the first liquid pipe branch 201 at different times under the same working condition, improving the certainty of the amount of refrigerant flowing into the first liquid pipe branch 201, and simultaneously improving the stability of the amount of refrigerant flowing into other liquid pipe branches, thereby improving the heat exchange stability of the variable split heat exchanger.

[0084] Optionally, the discrete element 208 may be a plate-like structure with holes, or other structures, and the material of the discrete element 208 may be metal or fabric. Optionally, the discrete element 208 has a plurality of liquid equalizing holes to break up and mix the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant. Optionally, the discrete element 208 includes a multi-layer liquid equalizing structure, and each layer of the liquid equalizing structure is provided with liquid equalizing holes, thereby improving the mixing effect of the discrete element 208 on the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant. Optionally, the liquid equalizing holes in the multi-layer liquid equalizing structure are staggered with each other. Optionally, the liquid equalizing holes of the discrete element 208 are greater than or equal to 5 mm to prevent the liquid equalizing holes from throttling the refrigerant.

[0085] Optionally, the distance between the bottom end of the discrete element 208 and the bottom end of the separation tube section 209 is h1, and h1 ≥ 50 mm. In this way, while ensuring that the centrifugal acceleration of the separation tube section 209 and the refrigerant is fully exerted, the discrete element 208 breaks up the refrigerant after centrifugal acceleration, so that the setting of the discrete element 208 does not increase the resistance to the refrigerant separated by the separation tube section 209.

[0086] The distance between the first connection point 2091 between the separation pipe section 209 and the outflow pipe section 210 and the bottom end of the discrete element 208 is h2, and h2≥5mm. In this way, the setting of the discrete element 208 does not increase the resistance to the refrigerant separated and accelerated by the separation pipe section 209. Optionally, h2≥10mm, or h2≥20mm.

[0087] Optionally, the discrete element 208 includes a filter. The filter-type discrete element 208 improves the uniformity of the mixed flow of the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant. Optionally, the shape of the filter mesh hole includes a polygonal hole, or the shape of the filter mesh hole is an irregular shape. It can be understood that the filter mesh hole is the aforementioned liquid balancing hole.

[0088] The filter screen includes a first mesh portion and a second mesh portion. The first mesh portion is connected to the inner wall of the outflow pipe section 210, and the second mesh portion is connected to the first mesh portion, and covers the first mesh portion. A preset distance is set between the second mesh portion and the inner wall of the outflow pipe section 210. It can be understood that at least part of the second mesh portion is not connected to the inner wall of the outflow pipe section 210, or all outer edges of the second mesh portion are not connected to the inner wall of the outflow pipe section 210. In this way, the mixed flow effect of the filter screen on the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is improved. Optionally, the first mesh portion is a horizontal mesh. The shape of the second mesh portion includes an arc, an inverted basin, an inverted angle or an irregular shape.

[0089] Optionally, a hollow portion is provided between the first net portion and the second net portion. The provision of the hollow portion reduces the pressure loss of the refrigerant flow while the first net portion and the second net portion simultaneously exert a mixed flow effect.

[0090] Optionally, the aperture of at least some of the meshes of the second mesh is smaller than the aperture of the meshes of the first mesh. For the filter mesh structure in which the second mesh is connected to the upper part of the first mesh, when the refrigerant flows through the second mesh, since the area of ​​the second mesh is larger than the area of ​​the first mesh, the second mesh has a greater mixing effect on the refrigerant, and the refrigerant will form a partial reflux at the second mesh. The aperture of at least some of the meshes of the second mesh is smaller than the aperture of the meshes of the first mesh, or the aperture of all the meshes of the second mesh is smaller than the aperture of the meshes of the first mesh. In this way, the mixing effect of the filter on the refrigerant is further improved.
