Abstract:
A heat dissipating apparatus has a phase change material evaporator, a condenser, a refrigerant output tube, and a refrigerant input tube. The evaporator has a base having an evaporation chamber, a refrigerant inlet and a refrigerant outlet, a reinforcement panel mounted in the evaporation chamber and dividing the evaporation chamber into two spaces, and multiple heat conduction fins separately arranged in the two spaces. An opening area of the refrigerant outlet is larger than an opening area of the refrigerant inlet. The evaporator, the refrigerant output tube, the condenser and the refrigerant input tube form a closed refrigerant circulation loop with a refrigerant filled therein. Gas pressure of a gas-phased refrigerant in the two spaces can be increased. With pressure difference between the refrigerant outlet and the refrigerant inlet, the gas-phased refrigerant can be accelerated to flow toward the refrigerant outlet and flowability of the refrigerant can be increased.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a heat exchanger comprising a body and a support embedded within the body. The support comprises a different material and/or a different material structure to the body and hence has at least one material property which is different to that of the body. The method comprises; forming at least a first portion of the support with a first material and a first material structure using a first additive manufacturing step; and forming at least a first portion of the body with a second material and a second material structure using a second additive manufacturing step. The first material is different to the second material and/or the first material structure is different to the second material structure.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method for depositing metal on a polymer surface, the method includes coating the polymer surface with a binding metal to render the polymer surface solvophillic and/or hydrophilic and depositing a further metal on the binding metal-coated polymer surface.
Abstract:
In order to prevent deformation of a side member due to thermal stress in a heat exchanger in which water for cooling a high-temperature body circulates, a side member is formed in the shape of a groove, the cross section of which has side wall parts and a base part along the entire length in the lengthwise direction of a main body part, and both ends of the side member in the lengthwise direction are provided with a stepped part, which is formed as a step toward the outside of a core, and one or more brace-like ribs, which integrally connect the tip end and the base part of the stepped part in a slanting manner.
Abstract:
A method for producing a plate heat exchanger with at least two heat exchanger blocks which are produced separately from one another in a soldering furnace. Each heat exchanger block has multiple separating sheets arranged parallel to one another and which form a plurality of heat exchanger passages for fluids involved in a heat exchange process. At least one support provided with solder is heated in order to melt the solder, the support is arranged between opposing outer surfaces of the heat exchanger blocks to be connected which are placed one on top of the other or adjacently, the support(s) thus being fixed between the opposing outer surfaces. After the solder is hardened, a bonded and heat-conductive connection is produced between the heat exchanger blocks. Sheets or wire arrangement can be used as the supports.
Abstract:
A brazed heat exchanger comprises a number of heat exchanger plates (100, 200, 300) provided with a pressed pattern of ridges (110a) and grooves (110b) arranged such that flow channels for media to exchange heat are formed between neighboring plates (100,200,300). The plates (100,200,300) are further provided with port openings (120a-d) in selective communication with said flow channels and with a circumferential edge formed by skirts (130;240; 335) of neighboring plates (100,200,300) overlapping one another. A reinforcement portion (140; 250;340) extends outside the skirt (130;240; 335), and comprises a ribbon of sheet metal.
Abstract:
A heat exchanger may include a connection plate for fastening to a component and a plurality of pan elements stacked on top of each other and soldered together adjacent to the connection plate. At least one of the pan elements may be arranged directly adjacent to the connection plate may have an outwardly protruding, flange-like rim configured to rest against the connection plate and stiffen the same.
Abstract:
A module of heat transfer plates which are welded to each other comprises a first outer heat transfer plate, at least a first and a second heat transfer plate, and a first reinforcement arrangement. Port holes form a first port channel in the module. The first reinforcement arrangement comprises a first abutment member and a first supporting member. The first abutment member is arranged on a side of the first outer heat transfer plate opposite to the first heat transfer plate. The first supporting member is arranged between the first abutment member and the first outer heat transfer plate. The first supporting member abuts against the first abutment member and the first outer heat transfer plate. Further a heat exchanger comprising such a module is provided.
Abstract:
A heat exchanger with a plurality of stacked flat tubes and a collecting tank having a wall extending around the entire periphery of, and connected to, the end of the stacked flat tubes. A first medium may be distributed through the collecting tank and flat tubes. Internal inserts are in the flat tubes, with the inserts being bonded between the broad sides of the tubes and, in the region of connection of the tubes to the collecting tank, being configured to compensate for length changes in the stacking direction caused by temperature changes, as by recesses in connectors such as wave flanks or by corrugated wave flanks. The flat tubes with inserts such as described may be separately provided for use in manufacture of heat exchangers.
