Abstract

A refrigeration unit and a cooling tower apparatus are disclosed. The cooling tower apparatus includes an insulated outer shell and at least one refrigeration unit. The refrigeration unit includes a circulation pipe and a plurality of heat dissipation plates. The circulation pipe is adapted to guide the circulation of a refrigerant. The heat dissipation plates are connected to the circulation pipe and arranged at intervals. The outer surfaces of two adjacent heat dissipation plates together define a refrigeration channel for fluid passage. The interior of each heat dissipation plate is hollow, forming an internal space for the refrigerant to pass through. When the refrigerant passes through the internal space, the heat dissipation plates exchange heat with the refrigerant, and an ice layer is formed on the outer surface of each heat dissipation plate. The heat energy of the fluid passing through the refrigeration channel is absorbed by the ice layer, resulting in cooling, thereby improving the refrigeration efficiency.
