[0002] The heat exchanger in a four-pipe fan coil unit typically includes multiple rows of cooling pipes and one row of heating pipes. The water in the cooling pipes and the water in the heating pipes operate independently.

The air blown by the fan comes into contact with the cooling pipes for heat exchange, thus providing cooling. When heating is needed, the water in the heating pipes flows while the water in the cooling pipes remains still. The air blown by the fan comes into contact with the heating pipes for heat exchange, thus providing heating.

[0003] The above design can flexibly meet the heat exchange needs of different seasons. However, the industry currently generally uses refrigeration pipes and heating pipes of the same diameter, which is relatively expensive, and there is room for optimization in terms of cost and other aspects.

[0011] Furthermore, each row of cooling pipes includes 9 to 11 cooling pipes, and each row of heating pipes includes 9 to 11 heating pipes.

[0012] Furthermore, the refrigeration pipes in the refrigeration section form multiple refrigeration flow paths, with multiple refrigeration pipes in each refrigeration flow path connected in sequence and at least some of the multiple refrigeration pipes located in different rows.

[0013] Furthermore, the refrigeration section includes 5 to 7 refrigeration flow paths, each refrigeration flow path including 4 to 6 refrigeration pipes, wherein in the water flow direction of the refrigeration flow path, the height of the next refrigeration pipe is not lower than the height of the previous refrigeration pipe; and / or, the heating section includes 4 to 5 heating flow paths, each heating flow path including 2 to 4 heating pipes, wherein in the water flow direction of the heating flow path, the height of the next heating pipe is not lower than the height of the previous heating pipe.

[0014] Specifically, the refrigeration section includes three rows of refrigeration pipes.

[0034] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present utility model or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a heat exchanger, including a refrigeration section 10, a heating section 20, a refrigeration water collection pipe 30, and a heating water collection pipe 40. The refrigeration section 10 receives water and discharges water through the refrigeration water collection pipe 30, and the heating section 20 receives water and discharges water through the heating water collection pipe 40. The refrigeration section 10 includes at least two rows of refrigeration pipes 11, and the heating section 20 includes at least one row of heating pipes 21. The outer diameter of the refrigeration pipes 11 is 3mm to 9mm, and the outer diameter of the heating pipes 21 is 7mm to 12mm. The outer diameter of the refrigeration pipes 11 is smaller than the outer diameter of the heating pipes 21.

[0036] In this design, the refrigeration section 10 and heating section 20 of the heat exchanger operate as needed. The refrigeration pipe 11 inputs and outputs cooled water through two refrigeration water collection pipes 30, exchanging heat with the air to achieve refrigeration. The heating pipe 21 inputs and outputs cooled water through two heating water collection pipes 40, exchanging heat with the air to achieve heating. While existing refrigeration and heating pipes have the same outer diameter, in this design, the outer diameter of the refrigeration pipe 11 is 3mm to 9mm, and the outer diameter of the heating pipe 21 is 7mm to 12mm. Furthermore, the outer diameter of the refrigeration pipe 11 is smaller than that of the heating pipe 21, meaning the outer diameter of the refrigeration pipe 11 is reduced compared to existing designs. This reduces material usage and lowers the production costs of the heat exchanger and fan coil units.

[0037] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the cooling pipe 11 is 3mm to 6.9mm, for example 4mm or 6mm, and the outer diameter of the heating pipe 21 is 7mm to 10mm, for example 8mm or 9mm.

[0038] The materials and dimensions of the cooling pipe 11 and the heating pipe 21 are selected according to production needs. For example, in one specific embodiment, both the cooling pipe 11 and the heating pipe 21 are copper pipes, with the outer diameter of the cooling pipe 11 being 5mm and the outer diameter of the heating pipe 21 being 7mm. This design provides good heat exchange performance and reduces costs.

[0039] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, multiple cooling pipes 11 in each row of cooling pipes 11 are arranged in an inclined direction, with the angle between the inclined direction and the horizontal direction being 30° to 60°, and multiple heating pipes 21 in each row of heating pipes 21 are arranged in a vertical direction; the upper end of the cooling section 10 and the upper end of the heating section 20 are connected.

[0040] In the heat exchanger, the number of multiple refrigeration tubes 11 in each row of refrigeration tubes 11 is greater than the number of multiple heating tubes 21 in each row of heating tubes 21. By arranging each row of refrigeration tubes 11 at an angle relative to the horizontal direction, the height dimension and space occupied by the refrigeration section 10 can be reduced. For example, the angle between the inclination direction of each row of refrigeration tubes 11 and the horizontal direction is 45°. Connecting the upper end of the refrigeration section 10 and the upper end of the heating section 20 can improve the overall structural strength of the heat exchanger.

[0041] In this scheme, the distance between two adjacent cooling pipes 11 in each row of cooling pipes 11 is 15mm to 20mm, for example 19.05 or 19.5mm, and the distance between two adjacent rows of cooling pipes 11 is 11mm to 18mm, for example 16.5 or 11.6mm; the distance between two adjacent heating pipes 21 in each row of heating pipes 21 is 15mm to 30mm.

[0042] The above spacing range design ensures that the space between the refrigeration pipes 11 and the heating pipes 21 is neither too small to affect airflow, nor too large to cause the heat exchanger to occupy too much space, thus enabling the heat exchanger to have a good heat exchange effect.

[0043] In some embodiments, the refrigeration unit 10 includes three rows of refrigeration pipes 11, and the heating unit 20 includes one row of heating pipes 21. In the heat exchanger of the fan coil unit, the refrigeration pipes 11 are arranged in three rows, and the heating pipes 21 are arranged in one row. This can control costs while meeting the heat exchange requirements of different seasons.

[0044] The refrigeration section 10 includes multiple refrigeration fins 12 arranged side by side, with each refrigeration pipe 11 passing through the multiple refrigeration fins 12. The heating section 20 includes multiple heating fins 22 arranged side by side, with each heating pipe 21 passing through the multiple heating fins 22. The multiple refrigeration fins 12 and heating fins 22 can both fix the refrigeration pipes 11 and heating pipes 21 and increase the contact area with air, thereby improving the heat exchange effect.

[0045] exist Figures 3 to 5 In this design, each row of cooling pipes 11 includes 9 to 11 cooling pipes 11, and each row of heating pipes 21 includes 9 to 11 heating pipes 21. Setting the number of cooling pipes 11 in each row of cooling pipes 11 to 9 to 11, and the number of heating pipes 21 in each row of heating pipes 21 to 9 to 11, avoids poor heat exchange effect due to too few pipes, and avoids high cost due to too many pipes.

[0046] In this application, the refrigeration pipes 11 in the refrigeration section 10 form multiple refrigeration flow paths 13. The multiple refrigeration pipes 11 in each refrigeration flow path 13 are sequentially connected, and at least some of the multiple refrigeration pipes 11 are located in different rows. The inlet of the refrigeration flow path 13 is located below the outlet of the refrigeration flow path 13. The inlet and outlet of the refrigeration flow path 13 are respectively connected to the refrigeration water collection pipe 30. Adjacent refrigeration pipes 11 in each refrigeration flow path 13 are connected by a bend joint. Through the above arrangement, cooling water can be simultaneously input and output in the multiple refrigeration flow paths 13, which can improve the heat exchange uniformity of the refrigeration pipes 11 at different locations. Furthermore, the cooling water adopts a bottom-in, top-out method, which can reduce hydraulic loss and noise.

[0047] The heating tubes 21 in the heating section 20 form multiple heating flow paths 23. The multiple heating tubes 21 in each heating flow path 23 are connected sequentially. The inlet of each heating flow path 23 is located below its outlet, and both the inlet and outlet are connected to the heating water collection pipe 40. Adjacent heating tubes 21 in each heating flow path 23 are connected via a bend joint. This configuration allows for simultaneous input and output of heated water into and out of the multiple heating flow paths 23, improving the heat exchange uniformity of the heating tubes 21 at different locations. Furthermore, the bottom-in, top-out heating water design reduces hydraulic loss and noise.

[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the two cooling water collection pipes 30 and the two heating water collection pipes 40 are located on the same side of the heat exchanger, which facilitates installation and maintenance.

[0049] In some embodiments, the refrigeration unit 10 includes 5 to 7 refrigeration flow paths 13, each refrigeration flow path 13 including 4 to 6 refrigeration pipes 11, wherein in the water flow direction of the refrigeration flow path 13, the height of the next refrigeration pipe 11 is not lower than the height of the previous refrigeration pipe 11; and / or, the heating unit 20 includes 4 to 5 heating flow paths 23, each heating flow path 23 including 2 to 4 heating pipes 21, wherein in the water flow direction of the heating flow path 23, the height of the next heating pipe 21 is not lower than the height of the previous heating pipe 21. Through the above arrangement, the uniformity of water flow distribution can be improved, water resistance reduced, and heat exchange effect enhanced.

[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the refrigeration unit 10 includes three rows of refrigeration pipes 11. The first row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 10 refrigeration pipes 11, the second row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 9 refrigeration pipes 11, and the third row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 9 refrigeration pipes 11. The refrigeration unit 10 includes 5 refrigeration flow paths 13, wherein the uppermost refrigeration flow path 13 includes 4 refrigeration pipes 11, and the other refrigeration flow paths 13 include 6 refrigeration pipes 11. The inlet of each refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the first row of refrigeration pipes 11, and the outlet of each refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the third row of refrigeration pipes 11.

[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the refrigeration unit 10 includes three rows of refrigeration pipes 11. The first row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 9 refrigeration pipes 11, the second row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 9 refrigeration pipes 11, and the third row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 10 refrigeration pipes 11. The refrigeration unit 10 includes 7 refrigeration flow paths 13, each refrigeration flow path 13 including 4 refrigeration pipes 11. The inlet of each refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the first row of refrigeration pipes 11, and the outlet of each refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the third row of refrigeration pipes 11.

[0052] like Figure 5As shown, in one specific embodiment, the refrigeration unit 10 includes three rows of refrigeration pipes 11. The first row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 11 refrigeration pipes 11, the second row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 11 refrigeration pipes 11, and the third row of refrigeration pipes 11 includes 10 refrigeration pipes 11. The refrigeration unit 10 includes eight refrigeration flow paths 13, each refrigeration flow path 13 including four refrigeration pipes 11. The inlet of each refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the first row of refrigeration pipes 11, the outlet of the uppermost refrigeration flow path 13 is located in the second row of refrigeration pipes 11, and the outlets of the other refrigeration flow paths 13 are located in the third row of refrigeration pipes 11.

[0053] The different piping arrangements described above demonstrate that, based on actual measurements, they meet national performance and water resistance requirements. These improvements not only enhance system energy efficiency but also reduce operating costs, aligning with current energy conservation and emission reduction trends. This design enables us to provide customers with more efficient and energy-saving air conditioning system solutions, meeting the diverse needs of our clients.

[0054] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in order to reduce costs, some positions of the cooling fins 12 may not require the installation of cooling pipes 11, while still meeting heat exchange requirements. These positions are chosen to be far from the air outlet of the fan 60 to minimize the impact on heat exchange.

[0055] like Figure 6 As shown, one embodiment of this application also provides a fan coil unit, which includes a housing 50, a fan 60, a water collection tray 70, and the aforementioned heat exchanger. The fan 60 is installed on one side of the housing 50, and the water collection tray 70 is installed below the housing 50. The cooling section 10 and the heating section 20 in the heat exchanger are both located within the heat exchange chamber of the housing 50. The cooling section 10 is closer to the fan 60 than the heating section 20, and the air outlet of the fan 60 blows air towards the upper middle part of the cooling section 10. This fan coil unit reduces the outer diameter of the cooling pipe 11 compared to existing solutions, thereby reducing material usage and lowering the production cost of the fan coil unit.
