Abstract:
A heat exchanger has a pair of heat exchange conduits having adjacent primary heat exchange surfaces thermally coupled together for the transfer of heat energy between the conduits. A third fluid conduit has a primary heat transfer surface thermally coupled to the primary heat transfer surfaces of the pair of fluid conduits, so that heat can be transferred between any one of the fluid conduits and each of the other fluid conduits.
Abstract:
A microchannel flat tube applicable in a microchannel heat exchanger includes a flat tube body and a row of channels. The row of channels is arranged in the flat tube body along a width direction. The row of channels extends through the flat tube body along a length direction. A cross-section of each channel includes a first width in the width direction and a first height in a thickness direction. The row of channels at least includes a first group of first channels, a second group of second channels and a third group of third channels along the width direction. The first widths of the first channels, the second channels and the third channels decrease at a fixed value, thereby facilitating the control of the thickness of the microchannel flat tube and improving the heat exchange efficiency.
Abstract:
A cooling tower having an evaporative media along with a liquid distribution system that distributes hot liquid over the evaporative media. The cooling tower includes a pair of heat exchanger modules that each have a first set of passageways in fluid communication with a first flow duct and a second set of passageways in fluid communication with a second flow duct. The heat exchanger module transfers heat from a first air stream into a second air stream. The cooling tower further includes a first bypass flow path that extends between the first heat exchanger module and the second heat exchanger module whereby a bypass door regulates airflow there through.

Abstract:
A combination radiator and condenser apparatus for a motor vehicle has inlets and outlets adapted to be connected in both a coolant system for a liquid cooled engine and in a refrigerant system of an automobile air conditioning system. The apparatus includes a plurality of axially aligned fluid flow tubes having the same air centers and the tubes each extend between combination radiator and condenser tanks, in one embodiment the axially aligned fluid flow tubes are unitary, integral fluid flow tubes with a separate refrigerant vapor passage and a separate engine coolant passage therein. A method for simultaneously cooling engine coolant and refrigerant vapor in combined radiator and condenser apparatus for a motor vehicle includes the steps of directing vehicle inlet airstream through common air centers between the axially aligned refrigerant vapor tubes and vehicle coolant tubes.

The present application discloses a microchannel flat tube and a microchannel heat exchanger. The microchannel flat tube includes a flat tube body and a row of channels. The row of channels is arranged in the flat tube body along a width direction. The row of channels extends through the flat tube body along a length direction. A cross-section of each channel includes a first width in the width direction and a first height in a thickness direction. The row of channels at least includes a first group of first channels, a second group of second channels and a third group of third channels along the width direction. The first widths of the first channels, the second channels and the third channels decrease at a fixed rate, thereby facilitating the control of the thickness of the microchannel flat tube and improving the heat exchange efficiency of the third channels.
Abstract:
An apparatus, rear door heat exchanger, system, and method for controlling the redundancy of a cooling system for a server rack. The system includes a cooling system having at least two liquid cooling circuits. The system also includes a rear door heat exchanger connected to the cooling system. The rear door heat exchanger includes two heat exchange coils. Each heat exchange coil is carried by the server rack and configured to interface with a different liquid cooling circuit. The rear door heat exchanger also includes an adapter configured to couple together the two heat exchange coils into one heat exchange unit. The heat exchange unit is configured to interface with one liquid cooling circuit from the cooling system.
Abstract:
A heat exchanger uses a refrigerant acting under a high pressure, such as carbon dioxide, as a refrigerant. The heat exchanger includes first and second header pipes arranged a predetermined distance from each other and parallel to each other, each having at least two chambers independently sectioned by a partition wall, a plurality of tubes for separately connecting the chambers of the first and second header pipes, facing each other, wherein the tubes are divided into at least two tube groups, each having a single refrigerant path, a refrigerant inlet pipe formed at the chamber disposed at one end portion of the first header pipe, through which the refrigerant is supplied, a plurality of return holes formed in the partition wall to connect two chambers adjacent to each other, through which the refrigerant sequentially flows the tube groups, and a refrigerant outlet pipe formed at the chamber of one of the first and second header pipes connected to a final tube group of the tube groups along the flow of the refrigerant, through which the refrigerant is exhausted.
