The invention discloses a microchannel condenser flow distribution
global simulation method and
system, and relates to the field of microchannel condenser flow distribution calculation. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, constructing a
heat transfer and resistance model and forming a single-channel model by combining the size and structure of a
parallel channel of the condenser and working medium flow heat exchange characteristics, and constructing a
shunting and converging numerical model according to an inlet and outlet area structure of the condenser; secondly, numerical
simulation is conducted on the division and convergence numerical model, and stable initial field distribution is obtained; then, determining the
mass flow rate of each channel based on the
shunting initial field, calculating the
back pressure of the channel by taking the
mass flow rate as the inlet boundary condition of a confluence model, calculating the
inlet pressure of the channel through a single-channel model, and updating the outlet boundary of the
shunting model; and finally, iterating the process until the channel
mass flow error is smaller than a
limit value, obtaining the distribution of the sub-confluence three-dimensional
physical field and the one-dimensional flow heat exchange parameters and the heat exchange amount of the parallel channels, and checking whether the heat exchange amount meets the design requirements or not. The method gives consideration to calculation efficiency and precision, can provide support for structure optimization of the micro-channel condenser, and is suitable for micro-channel condenser design in the fields of
refrigeration equipment,
air conditioning systems and the like.
