Abstract
A double-tube type heat exchanger has a restriction hole (6), formed on an inner tube (3), through which a refrigerant introduced into an outer tube (3) is introduced into the inner tube (3) while the refrigerant expands. Therefore, a part of the refrigerant introduced into the outer tube (3) can be introduced into the inner tube (2) from the restriction hole (6) while the refrigerant expands. That is, the restriction hole (6) formed on the inner tube (2) serves as an expansion mechanism of a bypass flow. Therefore, this double-tube type heat exchanger (1) allows an injection circuit or a super-cooling circuit to be compactly and inexpensively constructed.
Claims11
A double-tube type heat exchanger for the heat exchanging a refrigerant, comprising:
- an inner tube having a closed end and an open end;
- an outer tube having an inlet and an outlet, the outer tube surrounding the inner tube;
- and
- a restriction passage formed on a peripheral surface of the inner tube and communicating between the inner tube and the outer tube, wherein the refrigerant introduced into the outer tube is introduced into the inner tube while the refrigerant of the outer tube expands.
A gas injection circuit having a double-tube type heat exchanger for heat exchanging a refrigerant including an inner tube having a closed end and an open end, an outer tube having an inlet and an outlet, and a restriction passage communicating between the inner tube and the outer tube, the gas injection circuit comprising:
- a condenser connected to the inlet of the outer tube;
- an evaporator connected to the outlet of the outer tube, wherein an expansion mechanism is provided between the evaporator and the outlet of the outer tube;
- and
- an outflow port in the inner tube connected to an intermediate-pressure position of a compressor with a bypass pipe.
A super cooling circuit having a double-tube type heat exchanger for heat exchanging a refrigerant including an inner tube having a closed end and an open end, an outer tube having an inlet and an outlet, and a restriction passage communicating between the inner tube and the outer tube, the gas injection circuit comprising:
- a condenser connected to the inlet of the outer tube;
- an evaporator connected to the outlet of the outer tube, wherein an expansion mechanism is provided between the evaporator and the outlet of the outer tube;
- and
- an outflow port in the inner tube connected to an intermediate-pressure position of a compressor with a bypass pipe.
