For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0034] The heat exchange tube 10 according to an embodiment of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0035] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the heat exchange tube 10 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a tube body 1.

[0036] Specifically, the tube body 1 can be a circular tube structure, and the outer diameter of the tube body 1 is 7.8 mm - 8.7 mm. It can be understood that the present application is an improvement on the heat exchange tube 10 with an outer diameter of 7.8 mm - 8.7 mm of the tube body 1.

[0037] The heat transfer coefficient K and pressure drop P inside the heat exchanger 100 are both composed of two parts. One is the heat transfer coefficient K1 and pressure drop P1 corresponding to the inlet flow velocity of the heat exchange tube 10. Under the same mass flow rate, the more the flow paths are divided, the lower the flow velocity, the smaller K1, and the smaller P1. On the contrary, the fewer the flow paths are divided, the higher the flow velocity, the higher K1, and the higher P1. The other is the heat transfer coefficient K2 and pressure drop P2 corresponding to the tooth profile parameters inside the heat exchange tube 10. The higher K2 inside the heat exchange tube 10, the higher P2, and the lower K2, the smaller P2. It is defined that the heat transfer coefficient K inside the heat exchanger 100 = K1 * K2, and P = P1 * P2. Since the pressure drop of R290 is relatively large and the existing flow paths are relatively complex, which increases the welding difficulty and manufacturing consistency, therefore, to ensure the same heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the influence of the flow path and tooth profile parameters on heat transfer and pressure drop. On the basis of simplifying the flow path, to ensure that the performance remains unchanged, the tooth profile parameters inside the heat exchange tube 10 can be reasonably set to reduce the pressure drop.

[0038] In the present application, a tooth structure 2 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1. The tooth structure 2 is a raised structure on the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1. The tooth structure 2 extends spirally along the length direction of the tube body 1. The tooth structure 2 is a plurality of structures arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the tube body 1. The ratio of the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth height H of the tooth structure 2 is 900 - 2300. Among them, when calculating the ratio of the number of teeth N to the tooth height H, the tooth height is calculated in millimeters.

[0039] The more the number of teeth N, the greater the processing difficulty, the greater the flow resistance inside the tube, the greater the pressure drop, and the better the heat transfer performance. On the contrary, the fewer the number of teeth N, the smaller the processing difficulty, the smaller the flow resistance inside the tube, the smaller the pressure drop, and the worse the heat transfer performance. The greater the tooth height H, the greater the processing difficulty, the greater the flow resistance inside the tube, the greater the pressure drop, and the better the heat transfer performance. On the contrary, the smaller the tooth height H, the smaller the processing difficulty, the smaller the flow resistance inside the tube, the smaller the pressure drop, and the worse the heat transfer performance.

[0040] As Figure 4 shown, when the tooth tip angle α, the helix angle β, and the wall thickness of the tube body 1 remain unchanged, by changing the tooth height H and the number of teeth N, the comprehensive heat transfer performance is the ratio of the heat transfer coefficient to the cube root of the pressure drop. Taking the range with a deviation within ±3% from the maximum value as the preferred range, it can achieve substantially the same heat transfer performance as the heat exchange tube of the same size in the prior art. At this time, the ratio of the number of teeth N to the tooth height H is 900 - 2300, where the tooth tip angle α is 12° and the helix angle β is 10°.

[0041] Meanwhile, when the ratio of the number of teeth N to the tooth height H is 1000 - 2590.7, it is also convenient for the processing of the heat exchange tube 10 and reduces costs, including processing costs and material costs, etc.

[0042] For example, the ratio of the number of teeth N to the tooth height H can be 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200, 2300, etc.

[0043] Optionally, the heat exchange tube 10 is a copper tube, which has high structural strength and good heat exchange performance.

[0044] It should be noted that the number of teeth can be the number of tooth structures 2 on the cross-section perpendicular to the axis of the heat exchange tube 10, the tooth height can be the height of the tooth structure 2 protruding from the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1, the tooth apex angle can be the angle between the two side walls of the tooth structure 2 in the height direction, and the helix angle is the angle between the extending direction of the tooth structure 2 and the axis of the heat exchange tube 10.

[0045] According to the heat exchange tube 10 of the embodiment of the present utility model, by providing a tooth structure 2 spirally extending along the length direction of the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1, and the tooth structure 2 is a plurality of spaced along the circumferential direction of the tube body 1. For the heat exchange tube 10 with an outer diameter of 7.8 mm - 8.7 mm of the tube body 1, making the ratio of the number of teeth of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth height of the tooth structure 2 be 900 - 2300, the pressure drop of the heat exchange tube 10 can be reduced. Without changing the heat exchange performance, the flow path can be simplified and the complexity of the manufacturing process can be reduced.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the ratio of the helix angle β of the tooth structure 2 to the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 is 7.67 - 11.5. Among them, the larger the number of teeth N and the helix angle β, the more difficult it is to process. The ratio of the helix angle β to the number of teeth N being 7.67 - 11.5 is not only convenient for the processing of the tooth structure 2, ensuring the feasibility of forming teeth and reducing the processing cost, but also can ensure the heat exchange performance of the heat exchange tube 10. For example, the ratio of the helix angle β of the tooth structure 2 to the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 can be 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 11, or 11.5, etc.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the ratio of the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 is 6 - 11.5. Among them, the smaller the tooth apex angle, the smaller the tooth width when the tooth height is constant, the smaller the area of the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1 covered by the tooth structure 2, the larger the heat exchange surface in the heat exchange tube 10, and the better the heat exchange effect. However, if the tooth apex angle is too small, the teeth are prone to falling over. Making the ratio of the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 be 6 - 11.5 can not only ensure the heat exchange performance, but also avoid the occurrence of tooth falling over, facilitate the processing of the tooth structure 2, and reduce the cost. For example, the ratio of the number of teeth N of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 can be 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 11, or 11.5, etc.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the helix angle β of the tooth structure 2 is 8° - 15°. For example, the helix angle β of the tooth structure 2 can be 9°, 10°, 11°, 12°, 13° or 14°, etc. In the related art, for heat exchange tubes with the same pipe diameter, in order to adapt to conventional refrigerants, the helix angle is 37°. Compared with the existing heat exchange tubes, the present application can not only reduce the flow resistance inside the heat exchange tube 10, thereby reducing the pressure drop, which is beneficial to simplifying the flow path on the premise of the same heat exchange performance and reducing the complexity of the manufacturing process, but also facilitates the processing of the heat exchange tube 10, reducing the processing cost and material cost, etc.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 is 10° - 18°. For example, the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 can be 11°, 12°, 13°, 14°, 15°, 16° or 17°. The smaller the tooth apex angle, the better the heat exchange, but if the tooth apex angle is too small, the teeth are prone to being inverted. In the present application, setting the tooth apex angle α of the tooth structure 2 to be 10° - 18° can not only ensure the heat exchange performance, facilitate the processing of the tooth structure 2, but also avoid the teeth of the tooth structure 2 from being inverted.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the heat exchange tube 10 is used for filling R290 refrigerant. It can be understood that the heat exchange tube 10 of the present application can be used for R290 refrigerant, which can not only reduce the flow resistance loss of the R290 refrigerant, but also simplify the flow path and reduce the complexity of the manufacturing process under the condition of the same heat exchange performance.

[0051] The heat exchanger 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model will be described below.

[0052] The heat exchanger 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes the above-mentioned heat exchange tube 10. The heat exchanger 100 further includes a plurality of fins 20, and the heat exchange tube 10 is penetrated through the fins 20. Among them, the heat exchanger 100 can be an outdoor heat exchanger or an indoor heat exchanger; in a preferred embodiment, the heat exchanger 100 is an outdoor heat exchanger.

[0053] The heat exchanger 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model, by providing the above-mentioned heat exchange tube 10, with a tooth structure 2 spirally extending along the length direction of the tube body 1 provided on the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1, and the tooth structure 2 being a plurality of strips spaced along the circumferential direction of the tube body 1, for a heat exchange tube 10 with an outer diameter of the tube body 1 being 7.8 mm - 8.7 mm, making the ratio of the number of teeth of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth height of the tooth structure 2 be 900 - 2300, can reduce the pressure drop of the heat exchange tube 10, and can achieve simplifying the flow path and reducing the complexity of the manufacturing process while ensuring the same heat exchange performance.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present utility model, such as Figure 3As shown, the heat exchanger 100 has a heat exchange flow path 30, and the heat exchange flow path 30 includes a first flow path 31 and a second flow path 32 that are connected in sequence. The first flow path 31 includes two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 arranged in parallel. When the heat exchanger 100 is a condenser, the refrigerant flows from the first flow path 31 to the second flow path 32. The refrigerant flowing into the heat exchanger 100 is divided into two paths and flows into the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 of the first flow path 31 respectively. The refrigerant flowing out of the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 flows to the second flow path 32, and then flows out of the heat exchanger 100 from the second flow path 32.

[0055] Both of the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 and the second flow path 32 flow through part of the heat exchange tubes 10. Specifically, the heat exchange tubes 10 include a plurality of U-shaped tubes arranged at intervals. The two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 and the second flow path 32 respectively flow through part of the U-shaped tubes, and the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 and the second flow path 32 can flow through all the U-shaped tubes. Thereby, the flow path can be simplified and the complexity of the manufacturing process can be reduced.

[0056] In the related art, based on the existing heat exchange tubes, due to the large pressure drop of the heat exchange tubes, the flow path is relatively complex. For example, the heat exchange flow path in the prior art includes two heat exchange sub-flow paths arranged in parallel, which is more complex in structure than the present application. For R290, the pipe diameter D satisfies 7.8 mm ≤ D ≤ 8.7 mm; Condensation: dry bulb temperature 35 °C, wet bulb temperature 24 °C, inlet temperature 75 °C, pressure 3100 KPa, outlet subcooling degree 10 °C, air volume 2500; Evaporation: dry bulb temperature 7 °C, wet bulb temperature 6 °C, temperature before the valve 30 °C, saturation temperature 48 °C, inlet temperature 0.5 °C. The comparison between the present application and the prior art is shown in Table 1 below.

[0057] Table 1

[0058] Existing solution Solution of this application Pipe diameter (mm) 8 8 Tooth height (mm) 0.13 0.06 Helix angle (°) 37 10 Tooth tip angle (°) 12 12 Number of teeth (°) 75 102 Flow path 2 inlets and 2 outlets 2 inlets and 1 outlet Condensing capacity (W) 4850 4933 Condensing heat transfer coefficient ((W / m2·K)) 3987 41873 Condensing pressure drop (KPa) 4.5 5.8 Evaporation capacity (W) 4102 4078 Evaporation heat transfer coefficient ((W / m2·K)) 8456 8326 Evaporation pressure drop (KPa) 15.4 15.5

[0059] As can be seen from Table 1 above, for R290, the pipe diameter D satisfies 7.8 mm ≤ D ≤ 8.7 mm. Under the condition that the heat exchange performance is generally the same, the structure of the heat exchange tubes 10 of the present application is simpler, the processing is more convenient, the pressure drop inside the tubes is lower, the flow path is simpler, and the manufacturing process will be simpler.

[0060] In some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 3 shown, the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 and the second flow path 32 are arranged in sequence in the height direction of the heat exchanger 100. Thereby, the arrangement of the flow path can be simplified and the connection between multiple U-shaped tubes is facilitated. For example, in Figure 3In the illustrated example, the heat exchange tube 10 includes a plurality of U-shaped tubes. The plurality of U-shaped tubes are arranged in a row in the thickness direction of the heat exchanger 100, and the plurality of U-shaped tubes are spaced apart in the height direction of the heat exchanger 100. The plurality of U-shaped tubes are divided into three groups in the height direction of the heat exchanger 100. Two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 and a second flow path 32 flow through the three groups of U-shaped tubes respectively. Among them, the number of U-shaped tubes through which the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 flow is the same.

[0061] Further, as Figure 3 shown, the arrows indicate the refrigerant flow direction when the heat exchanger 100 is used as a condenser. The refrigerant flow directions of the two heat exchange sub-flow paths 311 are the same, both flowing from one end to the other end in the height direction of the heat exchanger 100, and the flow direction of the second flow path 32 is opposite to that of the heat exchange sub-flow path 311.

[0062] The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

[0063] The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the above-mentioned heat exchanger 100, wherein the heat exchanger 100 is configured as an outdoor heat exchanger 100.

[0064] The air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention, by providing the above-mentioned heat exchanger 100, the heat exchanger 100 includes the above-mentioned heat exchange tube 10. A tooth structure 2 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the tube body 1 and spirally extends along the length direction of the tube body 1, and the tooth structure 2 is a plurality of teeth spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the tube body 1. For the heat exchange tube 10 with an outer diameter of the tube body 1 being 7.8 mm - 8.7 mm, the ratio of the number of teeth of the tooth structure 2 to the tooth height of the tooth structure 2 is 900 - 2300, which can reduce the pressure drop of the heat exchange tube 10. Without changing the heat exchange performance, it is possible to simplify the flow path and reduce the complexity of the manufacturing process.

[0065] Other configurations and operations of the air conditioner according to an embodiment of the present invention are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described in detail here.
