    Abstract: A thermal management device for cooling a coolant for an ice maker that is remote relative to the thermal management device includes a housing, a coolant line through which the coolant is configured to flow, and a fan configured to move air through the housing of the thermal management device. The thermal management device includes a heat exchanger and a pump configured to move the coolant, via the coolant line, through the heat exchanger. The thermal management device includes a pressure sensor configured to determine a pressure of the coolant in the coolant line. A speed of the pump or a speed of the fan is controllable based on the determined pressure, such that heat transfer between the air moved through the housing and the coolant in the coolant line is controllable without a direct electrical connection of the thermal management device to the ice maker.

    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit in which at least a compressor, a condenser, a first pressure reducer, and an evaporator are connected by pipes. The condenser includes a plurality of heat transfer tubes extending in an up-and-down direction, a first header having a tubular outer wall into which first ends of the plurality of heat transfer tubes are inserted, and a partition plate that is provided from a first end to a second end of the first header in a longitudinal direction, partitions an internal space of the first header into a high-pressure refrigerant passage where the first ends of the plurality of heat transfer tubes are disposed and a low-pressure refrigerant passage where the first ends of the plurality of heat transfer tubes are not disposed, and is configured to exchange heat between high-pressure refrigerant and low-pressure refrigerant in the first header.

    Abstract: A condenser (100), comprising a shell (112), an inlet pipe (120), and an anti-impact plate (204). The shell (112) has an accommodating cavity (202). The inlet pipe (120) is a circular pipe having a gradually increasing inner diameter from the inlet to the outlet. The inlet pipe (120) is arranged to pass through the upper end of the shell (112), the outlet of the inlet pipe (120) being accommodated in the accommodating cavity (202). The anti-impact plate (204) is accommodated in the accommodating cavity (202), and the anti-impact plate (204) is positioned below the outlet of the inlet pipe (120). There is a gap between the anti-impact plate (204) and the outlet through which fluid flowing from the outlet can flow. The condenser (100) can reduce the friction loss and local resistance of the refrigerant gas flowing into the inlet pipe (120), such that the dynamic pressure of the refrigerant gas entering the condenser (100) is partially converted into static pressure, and reduce the static pressure loss of the refrigerant gas entering the cylinder from the inlet, thereby increasing the condensing pressure of the refrigerant gas in the condenser (100) to enhance the heat exchange performance.
