Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation technology, and in particular to an immersion heat dissipation device for air conditioner condensers. Background Technology

[0002] Throughout the long history of air conditioning refrigeration systems, heat dissipation has always been a key factor affecting system performance and stability. Traditional air conditioning heat dissipation methods mainly rely on air-cooling technology, using natural convection between the condenser surface and the air or forced convection by a fan to dissipate heat.

[0003] However, as air conditioner power continues to increase and usage scenarios become more complex, these traditional heat dissipation methods have gradually revealed many limitations.

[0004] Air cooling has relatively low heat transfer efficiency, and air's poor thermal conductivity makes it difficult for the condenser to dissipate heat quickly and efficiently into the environment. In harsh environments such as high temperature and high humidity, the cooling effect of air cooling is further reduced. The condenser is prone to overheating due to insufficient heat dissipation, leading to a significant decrease in cooling efficiency. This increases the load on critical components such as the compressor, resulting in a substantial increase in power consumption, accelerated wear and aging of the equipment, frequent malfunctions, and seriously affecting the normal use and lifespan of the air conditioner.

[0024] 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. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention discloses an immersion-type heat dissipation device for an air conditioner condenser, comprising an immersion chamber 1, an external bent pipe 2, and a condenser 5. The condenser 5 is installed inside the immersion chamber 1, and the external bent pipe 2 is installed on both sides of the immersion chamber 1. A fixing bracket 3 is provided on the outside of the external bent pipe 2, and the fixing bracket 3 is fixed to the two sides of the immersion chamber 1. A cooling fan 4 is installed on the outer side of the fixing bracket 3.

[0027] Pump 1 21 is installed on both sides of the top rear end of the immersion tank 1, and pump 22 is installed on both sides of the top front end of the immersion tank 1. Four pumping pipes 25 are installed inside the immersion tank 1, and the top of the pumping pipes 25 protrudes from the top of the immersion tank 1.

[0028] The front end of the top of the external bend 2 is connected to the injection pipe 23. One end of the injection pipe 23 is connected to the discharge end of the second injection pump 22. The inlet end of the second injection pump 22 is connected to the end of the injection pipe 25 protruding from the top of the immersion tank 1. The rear end of the top of the external bend 2 is connected to the discharge pipe 24. One end of the discharge pipe 24 is connected to the inlet end of the first injection pump 21. The discharge end of the first injection pump 21 is connected to the end of the injection pipe 25 protruding from the top of the immersion tank 1.

[0029] The number of injection tubes 25 is the same as the number of injection pump 1 21 and injection pump 22, with one injection pump 1 21 and one injection pump 22 corresponding to one injection tube 25.

[0030] There are two external bends 2, which are symmetrical on both sides of the centerline of the immersion tank 1.

[0031] Specifically, the condenser 5 is first installed inside the immersion chamber 1, and insulating coolant is injected into the immersion chamber 1 to completely immerse the condenser 5.

[0032] When the equipment is running, pump 21 and pump 22 are started. Pump 22 draws insulating coolant from the immersion tank 1 through pump 25 and injects it into the external bend 2 through injection pipe 23. After flowing through the external bend 2, the insulating coolant is drawn out by pump 21 through drainage pipe 24 and then guided back to the immersion tank 1 through pump 25 at the drainage end of pump 21, thus realizing the circulation of insulating coolant.

[0033] The external bend 2 is made of copper. When the insulating coolant flows through it, the external bend 2 absorbs its heat. Simultaneously, the cooling fan 4 is activated, accelerating the airflow around the external bend 2, thinning the thermal boundary layer on its surface, and facilitating efficient heat transfer from the external bend 2 to the air. The airflow also continuously carries away the heat transferred to the air, maintaining the temperature difference between the external bend 2 and the air, and continuously creating conditions for heat transfer.

[0034] In air conditioning and other refrigeration systems, the evaporator absorbs heat indoors, transforming the low-temperature, low-pressure refrigerant into a high-temperature, low-pressure gaseous state. This gaseous state is then compressed by the compressor into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous state before entering the condenser 5. The condenser 5 needs to release the heat absorbed from the indoor environment and the heat generated by the compressor to the outdoor environment. Since the condenser 5 is immersed in insulating coolant, when the temperature rises, the insulating coolant rapidly absorbs its heat, causing the coolant temperature to rise. At this time, the aforementioned circulating heat dissipation system draws the heated coolant to the outside of the immersion chamber 1 to dissipate heat into the air, lowering the coolant temperature. The cooled coolant is then re-injected into the immersion chamber 1, continuously absorbing heat from the condenser 5, thus completing the heat dissipation process for the condenser 5.

[0035] The advantages of the above design are as follows:

[0036] I. Heat dissipation efficiency and effect:

[0037] Highly efficient heat transfer: By immersing the condenser 5 in insulating coolant, the excellent thermal conductivity of the liquid can be utilized to quickly absorb the heat generated by the condenser 5. Compared with traditional heat dissipation methods such as air cooling, the heat transfer efficiency is higher, and the heat can be removed from the condenser 5 more promptly, preventing the condenser 5 from being affected by overheating.

[0038] Enhanced heat dissipation mechanism: The external bend 2 is made of copper, which has excellent thermal conductivity and can better absorb heat from the insulating coolant. At the same time, it works in conjunction with the cooling fan 4 to accelerate air circulation, making the thermal boundary layer on the surface of the external bend 2 thinner, which greatly enhances the efficiency of heat transfer from the external bend 2 to the air, effectively improving the overall heat dissipation effect.

[0039] Maintaining temperature difference for heat dissipation: The airflow continuously carries away the heat transferred from the external bend 2 to the air, which keeps the air around the external bend 2 at a relatively low temperature and maintains the temperature difference between the external bend 2 and the air. According to the principle of heat transfer, maintaining the temperature difference is conducive to the continuous and efficient transfer of heat, ensuring the continuity and stability of heat dissipation.

[0040] II. System stability and protection:

[0041] Protecting the condenser 5: Timely and effective heat dissipation can prevent the condenser 5 from overheating during operation, extend the service life of the condenser 5, reduce problems such as component aging and damage caused by high temperature, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the entire refrigeration system and reducing maintenance costs and frequency.

[0042] Ensuring system performance: Stable heat dissipation ensures that the refrigeration system can operate under suitable temperature conditions, which helps maintain the system's refrigeration efficiency and performance, avoids problems such as decreased refrigeration effect and increased energy consumption caused by poor heat dissipation of condenser 5, and improves the overall operating quality of the system.

[0043] III. Insulation and Safety:

[0044] Insulation protection: The use of insulating coolant not only achieves heat dissipation but also provides good insulation performance, effectively preventing safety issues such as short circuits in electrical components, thus improving system safety. It is especially suitable for environments with high electrical safety requirements.

[0045] IV. Recycling and Energy Conservation:

[0046] Coolant recycling: The insulating coolant is circulated through the pump body, allowing it to be reused repeatedly, saving resources and reducing operating costs. Furthermore, this circulation system provides continuous and stable heat dissipation for the condenser 5, ensuring continuous heat dissipation without the need for frequent coolant additions or replacements.

[0047] Energy saving effect: Efficient heat dissipation helps the refrigeration system maintain good operating conditions, allowing components such as the compressor to work under more ideal conditions. In the long run, this may help reduce the energy consumption of the entire system and achieve a certain degree of energy saving.
