Flat Tube Evaporator With Enhanced Refrigerant Flow Passages

View page
US Patent:
7080683, Jul 25, 2006
Filed:
Jun 14, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/866905
Inventors:
Mohinder Singh Bhatti - Amherst NY, US
Shrikant Mukund Joshi - WIlliamsville NY, US
Sunil S. Mehendale - Amherst NY, US
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
F28F 1/42
US Classification:
165179, 165177, 165173
Abstract:
A heat exchanger for a heating, ventilating and air conditioning system comprises a plurality of heat exchange tubes extending between a pair of spaced header tanks and arranged in groups of tubes with varying number of tubes in each group to cause a refrigerant to flow in multiple passes in the interior of the tubes across another fluid flowing on the exterior of the tubes. The heat exchange tubes comprise a plurality of flow passages having at least one corner formed by a pair of straight or arcuate sides with an included angle of less than or equal to ninety degrees, more preferably less than or equal to thirty degrees, to promote intense pool boiling within the flow passages. In addition to at least one corner region, the flow passage has a passage-specific optimal hydraulic diameter determined by the relationship between the optimal hydraulic diameter of the passage and the optimal hydraulic diameter of a baseline circular passage.

Hybrid Evaporator

US Patent:
7178585, Feb 20, 2007
Filed:
Aug 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/197422
Inventors:
Sunil S. Mehendale - Williamsville NY, US
Scott B. Lipa - Snyder NY, US
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
F28D 1/06
US Classification:
165153, 165DIG 465
Abstract:
A laminate-type evaporator includes U-channel plates in combination with various configurations of dual cup and single cup plates, to control refrigerant pressure drop and achieve enhanced temperature spreads within the evaporator. The U-channel plates define one or more of the final refrigerant passes in the evaporator, and the dual cup and single cup plates define refrigerant passes upstream therefrom. Fins are disposed between adjacent plate pairs and extend to selected end edges of the U-channel plates to maximize the surface area available for heat exchange in the final refrigerant passes.

Plate-Type Evaporator To Suppress Noise And Maintain Thermal Performance

View page
US Patent:
7264045, Sep 4, 2007
Filed:
Aug 23, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/209500
Inventors:
Sunil S. Mehendale - Williamsville NY, US
Gary Scott Vreeland - Medina NY, US
Scott B. Lipa - Snyder NY, US
Assignee:
Delphi Technologies, Inc. - Troy MI
International Classification:
F28D 1/03
US Classification:
165166, 165153, 165170
Abstract:
A heat exchanger assembly including a plurality of pairs of plates disposed in series for fluid flow from a pass through one pair of plates to a pass through the next pair of plates. Each pair of plates includes a central rib to define a U-shaped passage having a fluid entering leg and a fluid exiting leg interconnected by an open bottom interconnecting the legs below the lower end of the engaging central ribs. A plurality of dimples project into the passage to interact with fluid flow through the passage and each of the dimples has a hemispherical shape and a divider rib is disposed in the passage to co-act with the hemispherical dimples to reduce whistling noise.

Evaporator Designs For Achieving High Cooling Performance At High Superheats

View page
US Patent:
20060144051, Jul 6, 2006
Filed:
Jan 6, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/030431
Inventors:
Sunil Mehendale - Williamsville NY, US
Steven Papapanu - Lockport NY, US
International Classification:
F28D 1/02
F25B 21/02
US Classification:
062003200
Abstract:
An evaporator includes plates disposed in pairs in first and second groups, along spaced tanks. Dimples extend from the interior portions in the first group, and interior fins are disposed against the interior portions of the second group. The dimples enhance the distribution of liquid refrigerant in the passageways and the thermal energy exchange between ambient air and an upstream, low vapor quality flow of fluid passing between upstream and downstream side edges, of the first group of plates. The evaporator also eliminates the tonal noise or whistle under certain transient operating conditions.

Evaporator With Aerodynamic First Dimples To Suppress Whistling Noise

View page
US Patent:
20060231241, Oct 19, 2006
Filed:
Apr 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/108588
Inventors:
Steven Papapanu - Lockport NY, US
Sunil Mehendale - Williamsville NY, US
International Classification:
F28D 1/02
US Classification:
165152000
Abstract:
A heat exchanger assembly including a plurality of pairs of plates disposed in series for fluid flow from a pass through one pair of plates to a pass through the next pair of plates. Each pair of plates includes a central rib to define a U-shaped passage having a fluid entering leg and a fluid exiting leg interconnected by an open bottom interconnecting the legs below the lower end of the engaging ribs. A plurality of first dimples project into the passage to interact with fluid flow through the passage and each of the first dimples has an aerodynamic, e.g., tear-drop, shape to reduce whistling noise in the latter pairs of plates.

Free-Draining Finned Surface Architecture For Heat Exchanger

Inventors:
Michael F. Taras - Fayetteville NY, US
Jack Leon Esformes - Jamesville NY, US
Sunil S. Mehendale - Manlius NY, US
Satyam Bendapudi - Fayetteville NY, US
Abbas A. Alahyari - Manchester CT, US

Assignee:
CARRIER CORPORATION - Farmington CT
International Classification:
F28F 17/00
F28F 7/00
F28F 1/10
US Classification:
165172, 165185
Abstract:
A free-draining heat exchanger includes a first heat exchange tube, a second heat exchange tube spaced from and generally parallel to the first heat exchange tube, and a fin contacting the first and second heat exchange tubes. The fin includes a louver and at least one drainage enhancement feature for promoting removal of liquid from external surfaces of the heat exchanger. A free-draining fin structure includes an array of fins disposed between adjacent heat exchange tubes for improving water drainage by reducing liquid surface tension. Each fin in the array includes an opening and a louver for directing airflow through the opening and around the fin and at least one drainage enhancement feature.

Microchannel Heat Exchanger Fin

US Patent:
20130153174, Jun 20, 2013
Filed:
Aug 9, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/818386
Inventors:
Michael F. Taras - Fayetteville NY, US
Arindom Joardar - East Syracuse NY, US
Jack Leon Esformes - Jamesville NY, US
Sunil S. Mehendale - Manlius NY, US
Assignee:
CARRIER CORPORATION - Farmington CT
International Classification:
F28F 1/12
US Classification:
16510419
Abstract:
A heat exchanger includes a plurality of tubes (), each tube configured for a flow of fluid therethrough and one or more fins located between adjacent tubes of the plurality of tubes. The one or more fins are spaced by a fin pitch (Fp,) and are configured to improve thermal energy transfer between the plurality of tubes and ambient air. Each fin includes a fin face extending between the adjacent tubes, a substantially planar fin cap () connected to the fin face secured to one or the tubes, and a fin radius (Rc,) connecting the fin face to the fin cap such that the fin radius is reduced to promote condensate removal from the heat exchanger.
