Through the energy saving assembly 200, the flow equalizing net 220 and the spiral guide vane 250 in the cyclone distributor 210 cooperate with the stepwise designed guide hole 260 to realize gradual equalization of the flow rate of the refrigerant, reduce liquid film fluctuation, offset vortex disturbance, improve distribution uniformity, and thus reduce the energy consumption of the refrigerating unit.
[0025] Further, the pore size of the flow guide hole 260 decreases in steps along the refrigerant flow direction, which can offset the vortex disturbance and improve the uniformity of distribution.
[0026] On the other hand, the spacing between the flow uniformizing net 220 and the upper end surface of the heat exchange tube bundle 120 is 50-100 mm, which can make the refrigerant more uniformly distributed into the heat exchange tube bundle 120 after flow uniformization, thereby ensuring the operation effect.

[0029] Further, the surface of the flow uniformizing net 220 is covered with a polytetrafluoroethylene oleophobic coating with a thickness of 10-20 μm, which can improve the passing efficiency of the coolant and prevent the hysteresis phenomenon from affecting the feeding rate.
