HEAT EXCHANGER AND AIR CONDITIONER INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240159469 titled 'HEAT EXCHANGER AND AIR CONDITIONER INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a heat exchanger with an inner tube, first and second heat exchange portions, first and second outer tubes forming double-tube structures, and a connection tube linking the outer tubes. The heat exchanger allows for the flow of different refrigerants through the inner and outer tubes, facilitating heat exchange between them.

  • The heat exchanger includes an inner tube with bending, first and second heat exchange portions.
  • A first outer tube forms a double-tube structure around the first heat exchange portion.
  • A second outer tube forms a double-tube structure around the second heat exchange portion.
  • A connection tube connects the first and second outer tubes, allowing for the flow of different refrigerants.

Potential Applications

The heat exchanger design could be used in various industrial cooling systems, air conditioning units, and refrigeration systems.

Problems Solved

This technology enables efficient heat exchange between different refrigerants, improving overall system performance and energy efficiency.

Benefits

The heat exchanger design allows for versatile refrigerant flow configurations, enhancing heat transfer capabilities and system reliability.

Potential Commercial Applications

The heat exchanger technology could be applied in HVAC systems, industrial refrigeration units, and heat pump systems.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include traditional heat exchanger designs with single-tube structures and limited refrigerant flow configurations.

Unanswered Questions

How does this heat exchanger design compare to existing models in terms of energy efficiency?

The patent application does not provide specific data or comparisons regarding the energy efficiency of this heat exchanger design. Further testing and analysis would be needed to determine its efficiency in practical applications.

What materials are used in the construction of this heat exchanger and how do they impact its performance and longevity?

Original Abstract Submitted

a heat exchanger including an inner tube including a bending portion, a first heat exchange portion extending from the bending portion, and a second heat exchange portion extending from the bending portion; a first outer tube forming a first double-tube structure around the first heat exchange portion; a second outer tube forming a second double-tube structure around the second heat exchange portion; and a first connection tube connecting a first through hole of the first outer tube and a second through hole of the second outer tube so as to connect the first outer tube and the second outer tube, wherein a first refrigerant is flowable through the heat exchange portions and the bending portion, a second refrigerant is flowable through the outer tubes and the first connection tube, and the second refrigerant exchanges heat with the first refrigerant at boundaries between the respective outer tubes and heat exchange portions.
