Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigerators, in particular to a turbine refrigeration device. Background Art

[0002] At present, commonly used refrigerators generally use heat exchange to reduce the temperature of the airflow to prepare cold air. In the process, the heat exchange efficiency directly dominates the final cooling effect, and the key to determining the heat exchange efficiency lies mainly in the heat exchange stroke, heat exchange area and heat exchange time between the airflow and the heat exchange medium.

[0003] Existing refrigerators are generally optimized in terms of heat exchange stroke and heat exchange area. The method of extending the stroke while increasing the heat exchange area is used to make the airflow and the heat exchange medium fully contact and exchange heat, thereby improving the heat exchange effect. However, the above method will have the following problems: due to the limited air flow speed, extending the stroke will inevitably lead to a longer heat exchange time. At the same time, the air flow will rub against the flow channel wall during the flow process, causing the air flow to gradually slow down, and even produce turbulence, turbulence and backflow in the flow channel; at the same time, increasing the heat exchange area will also cause the air flow to reduce pressure and speed. Although the final heat exchange effect is relatively ideal, the heat exchange time is generally long, requiring a long time to respond, and the efficiency is low. Utility Model Content
