HEAT EXCHANGER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240328727 titled 'HEAT EXCHANGER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
The abstract describes a heat exchanger with a core portion, a first refrigerant flow path, and a second refrigerant flow path. These paths are tubular and regularly arranged, with the first path containing main flow paths, an introduction chamber, and a discharge chamber. The introduction and discharge chambers have protection members extending in specific directions.
- Heat exchanger with regular tubular flow paths
- First refrigerant flow path with main flow paths, introduction chamber, and discharge chamber
- Protection members in introduction and discharge chambers
- Core portion for heat exchange
- Second refrigerant flow path for efficient cooling
Potential Applications: - HVAC systems - Automotive cooling systems - Industrial refrigeration units
Problems Solved: - Efficient heat exchange - Improved refrigerant flow - Enhanced cooling performance
Benefits: - Increased energy efficiency - Better temperature control - Reduced maintenance needs
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Heat Exchanger Technology for Enhanced Cooling Systems This technology can be utilized in various industries such as HVAC, automotive, and industrial refrigeration for improved cooling efficiency and energy savings.
Questions about Heat Exchanger Technology: 1. How does the protection member in the introduction and discharge chambers enhance the heat exchanger's performance?
The protection member helps to direct the refrigerant flow efficiently, reducing turbulence and improving overall heat exchange.
2. What are the key advantages of using tubular flow paths in a heat exchanger design?
Tubular flow paths offer better heat transfer capabilities, increased durability, and easier maintenance compared to other designs.
Original Abstract Submitted
a heat exchanger includes: a core portion; a first refrigerant flow path; and a second refrigerant flow path as defined herein, the first refrigerant flow path and the second refrigerant flow path are regularly arranged tubular flow paths, the first refrigerant flow path includes a plurality of first main flow paths extending in a first direction and arranged in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, an introduction chamber as defined herein, and a discharge chamber as defined herein, and at least one of the introduction chamber and the discharge chamber is provided with a protection member extending in the first direction from an end opposite to the first main flow path in the first direction toward a direction away from the first main flow path and extending in the second direction.
