HEAT EXCHANGER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18228440 titled 'HEAT EXCHANGER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a heat exchanger with a unique design that allows for efficient flow of refrigerant through the system. The connecting member positioned between the refrigerant pipe and the distribution pipe ensures proper flow of the refrigerant.
- The heat exchanger includes a heat exchange fin, a refrigerant pipe, a connecting member, and a distribution pipe.
- The refrigerant pipe has a first thickness, while the distribution pipe has a second thickness greater than the first thickness.
- The connecting member is positioned between the refrigerant pipe and the distribution pipe to allow flow of refrigerant between them.
- The connecting member has a thickness in a range of 95% or more and 105% or less of the second thickness.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various cooling systems, such as air conditioners, refrigerators, and heat pumps.
Problems Solved
This design helps improve the efficiency of heat exchange by ensuring proper flow of refrigerant through the system.
Benefits
- Enhanced heat exchange efficiency - Improved cooling performance - Reduced energy consumption
Potential Commercial Applications
