AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When traditional parallel flow heat exchangers replace multi-row tube-fin heat exchangers, multiple individual heat exchangers need to be arranged side by side, which increases production costs and complexity, and makes flow control complicated, affecting product qualification rate.

Method used

The heat exchanger adopts a multi-row structure, with each row containing multiple heat exchanger cores. A refrigerant passage is formed through connecting sections. The heat exchange tubes are arranged alternately between the heat exchanger cores to avoid liquid distributors and gas collection manifolds. The heat exchange efficiency is improved by utilizing the incoming air. The multi-row bending design mixes the air temperature and refrigerant state, optimizing the heat exchange effect.

Benefits of technology

It improves heat exchange efficiency, avoids condensate buildup and blowout problems, enhances the end-customer experience, reduces production costs, and increases product qualification rate.

Abstract

Provided in the present invention is a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger comprises at least two heat exchanger cores (3, 4) which are arranged side by side, wherein each heat exchanger core comprises at least two rows of heat exchange tubes, each of the at least two rows of heat exchange tubes comprising heat exchange tubes (31, 32). The heat exchanger further comprises a connecting section (5), wherein the at least two heat exchanger cores are connected and in fluid communication by means of the connecting section.
