In the horizontal tube-shell condenser, the heat exchange tubes are arranged horizontally, and the refrigerant vapor condenses and exchanges heat outside the tube, forming a liquid film. The refrigerant gas is forced to condense on the outer surface of the liquid film, and the latent heat released must be transferred to the heat exchange tube through the liquid film.

[0026] The technical scheme of the utility model will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings, obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, instead of all the embodiment. Based on the embodiment in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary skill in the art without making creative labor belong to the scope of the utility model protection.
[0027] As Figure 1 The utility model discloses a kind of outer fin reinforced type condensing pipe's three-dimensional structure schematic diagram, it is the part of reinforced type condensing pipe, which includes pipe body 1, and outer fin 2 and inner thread rib 4 integrally formed with pipe body 1.
[0028] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 Outer fin 2 extends along the radial direction of pipe body 1 and extends in spiral state around pipe body on the outer surface of pipe body. Outer fin 2 is rolled from the material on pipe body 1. The integrally formed setting eliminates the contact thermal resistance between outer fin 2 and pipe body 1, and further reduces the heat transfer loss between them.
[0029] The thickness of both sides of outer fin 2 gradually decreases outward along the radial direction of pipe body 1, i.e. the thickness of bottom end of outer fin 2 is greater than that of top end. The thicker part of bottom end of outer fin 2 can effectively enhance the turbulent flow of condensate, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency. And with the gradual thinning of outer fin 2 outward, the resistance of condensate can be reduced, the flow loss can be reduced, and the flow characteristics of condensate can be improved. In addition, the bottom end of outer fin 2 is set thicker, which can increase the surface area in contact with condensate and improve the efficiency of heat exchange, and the design of gradually decreasing thickness helps to maintain the speed of condensate flowing through outer fin 2, thereby optimizing the overall heat transfer performance.
[0030] The gap between two adjacent outer fins 2 forms a spiral groove 3, and each spiral groove 3 is connected to each other. In this embodiment, the spiral groove 3 is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The spiral groove 3 which is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom can enhance the flowability of the condensate, promote the heat transfer in the fluid, and thus improve the condensation efficiency. By optimizing the flow path of the condensate, the flow resistance of the condensate is further reduced, and the heat exchange efficiency is ensured.
[0031] A fin top groove 21 is formed at the top end of the outer fin 2, and each fin top groove 21 is spaced along the spiral extension direction of the outer fin 2. The direction of each fin top groove 21 is consistent, and the fin top grooves 21 on the adjacent two outer fins 2 are connected to each other. Thus, a plurality of notches are formed at the top of the fin, which is beneficial to further promote the flow of the condensate, reduce the thickness of the liquid film, reduce the thermal resistance outside the tube, and effectively increase the heat exchange area, thereby further improving the heat exchange effect outside the tube.
[0032] In addition, the opening direction of the fin top groove 21 and the direction of the spiral groove 3 are cross arranged, that is, the direction of the fin top groove 21 and the direction of the spiral groove 3 are staggered, and the fin top groove 21 and the spiral groove 3 are connected. The fin top groove 21 and the spiral groove 3 are arranged in communication, which can reduce the flow dead zone, improve the flow characteristics of the condensate, reduce the thermal resistance when the condensate slides on the fin surface, increase the turbulence of the condensate, and improve the system energy efficiency.
[0033] It should be noted that the opening depth, opening direction, opening number of the fin top groove 21 and the spacing between the adjacent fin top grooves 21 can be reasonably arranged and adjusted according to actual needs.
[0034] In order to further improve the heat exchange effect, in this embodiment, a fin tip 22 is arranged on the side of the outer fin 2. Consistent with the fin top groove 21, the fin tip 22 is also arranged in the spiral extension direction of the outer fin 2. Specifically, the fin tip 22 is a sharp protrusion, and the sharp part of the sharp protrusion faces outwardly of the tube body 1, which aims to destroy the surface tension of the condensate liquid film through the sharp part, reduce the thickness of the liquid film, improve the flow efficiency of the condensate, reduce the thermal resistance outside the tube, increase the heat exchange area, and thus further improve the heat exchange effect outside the tube.
[0035] In this embodiment, the fin tip 22 can be arranged on one side or both sides of the outer fin 2, and the specific arrangement of one side or both sides can be adjusted according to actual needs. In addition, the fin tip 22 can be arranged in one row or two rows, or other number of rows. When the fin tip 22 is arranged in two rows or more, the fin tips 22 between the adjacent two rows can be staggered or arranged correspondingly.
[0036] Whether staggered or corresponding, the wing tip 22 can increase the turbulence degree of the condensed liquid to some extent, improve the liquid discharge efficiency of the condenser, and improve the heat transfer performance.
[0037] The inner surface of the pipe body 1 is convexly provided with internal thread ribs 4, and the gap between adjacent two internal thread ribs 4 constitutes an internal thread groove 41. The internal thread state is beneficial to improve the flow state of the fluid in the pipe, thin the boundary layer, reduce the thermal resistance of the heat exchange in the pipe, optimize the combination of the heat exchange efficiency inside and outside the pipe, and improve the overall heat exchange performance of the heat exchange pipe.
[0038] As described above, the outer fin enhanced condenser pipe of the example is integrally formed by arranging the pipe body 1 and the outer fin 2, thereby reducing the energy loss between heat transfer; at the same time, the wing tip 22 is arranged at the side of the outer fin 2, and the fin top groove 21 is arranged at the top of the outer fin 2, thereby increasing the heat exchange surface area outside the pipe, promoting the flow of the condensed liquid, thinning the liquid film thickness, reducing the thermal resistance outside the pipe, and improving the heat exchange efficiency, thereby reducing the weight of the heat exchange pipe and strengthening the heat exchange process. At the same time, the structure of the internal thread rib 4 makes the fluid in the pipe form a turbulent state, thins the boundary layer, promotes the convection and mixing between the fluids, and effectively improves the heat exchange efficiency.
[0039] The above examples are only for illustrating the technical concept and characteristics of the present application, and the purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present application and implement it, and cannot limit the protection scope of the present application. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit and essence of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
