The following describes in detail embodiments of the present disclosure, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are examples, and are intended to explain the present disclosure, but shall not be understood as a limitation on the present disclosure.

The first side wall 12, the second side wall 13, the third side wall 14, and the fourth side wall 15 form the tube cavity 11 of the flat tube 100.


The flat tube 100 further includes a first member 2, where the first member 2 is located in the tube cavity 11, the first member 2 divides the tube cavity 11 into a plurality of channels 16, the plurality of channels 16 are arranged at intervals in a width direction (as shown by the left-right direction in FIG. 1) of the flat tube 100, and length directions of the plurality of channels 16 are parallel to a length direction of the flat tube 100.


A welding portion 3 is located in at least one of the channels 16. As shown in FIG. 1, the first member 2 is corrugated in the left-right direction, at least a part of an upper side of the first member 2 is welded to the first side wall 12, at least a part of a lower side of the first member 2 is welded to the second side wall 13, and the welding portion 3 is located between the first member 2 and the first side wall 12 and second side wall 13.


On a cross section of the flat tube 100, a cross section of the welding portion 3 partially overlaps a flow cross section of the channel 16 and is connected to the first side wall 12. A maximum height of the cross section of the welding portion 3 in the height direction of the flat tube 100 is D, and D meets the following condition: N*(Wb+0.2D)>0.0017Wt2+0.0175Wt+0.3713; or N*(Wb+0.2D)<0.0119Wt2+0.086Wt+2.9649; where a quantity of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is N, a thickness of the first member 2 is Wb, and a width of the flat tube 100 is Wt.


Units of Wb, Wt, and D in the foregoing formula are mm. In this case, the heat exchange tube in the present disclosure effectively reduces resistance on a refrigerant side, which helps improve heat exchange performance of a heat exchanger. In addition, the flat tube 100 and the first member 2 are formed by processing a same sheet material.


Further, the heat exchange tube in the present disclosure can further improve corrosion resistance of the heat exchange tube.


It may be understood that at least a part of the first member 2 extends in an up-down direction of the tube cavity 11, and the thickness of the first member 2 means a part that is of the first member 2 and that extends in the tube cavity 11 in the up-down direction.


In some embodiments, a height of the flat tube 100 is H, the quantity of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is N, the width of the flat tube 100 is Wt, and the following conditions are met: {(N−2)/20}2*{(Wt−16)/16}3>0.05; and H*Wt<80. In this case, the heat exchange tube in the present disclosure effectively reduces resistance on the refrigerant side, which helps improve heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger.


In some embodiments, a height of the flat tube 100 is H, the quantity of the channels of the flat tube 100 is N, the width of the flat tube 100 is Wt, and the following conditions are met: {(N−2)/20}2*{(Wt−16)/16}3>0.3; and H*Wt<80. In this case, the heat exchange tube in the present disclosure effectively reduces resistance on the refrigerant side, which helps improve heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger. In addition, the flat tube 100 is formed by processing one sheet material, and the first member 2 is formed by processing another sheet material.


As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 18, according to a heat exchange tube in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the heat exchange tube is a flat tube 100.


The flat tube 100 includes a tube body 1 and a tube cavity 11, and the tube body 1 includes a first side wall 12 and a second side wall 13 that are arranged opposite to each other in a height direction (as shown by the up-down direction in FIG. 1) of the flat tube 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the flat tube 100 includes the first side wall 12 and the second side wall 13 that are arranged opposite to each other in the up-down direction, and a third side wall 14 and a fourth side wall 15 that are arranged opposite to each other in the left-right direction. The first side wall 12, the second side wall 13, the third side wall 14, and the fourth side wall 15 form the tube cavity 11 of the flat tube 100.


The flat tube 100 further includes a first member 2, where the first member 2 is located in the tube cavity 11, the first member 2 divides the tube cavity 11 into a plurality of channels 16, the plurality of channels 16 are arranged at intervals in a width direction (as shown by the left-right direction in FIG. 1) of the flat tube 100, and length directions of the plurality of channels 16 are parallel to a length direction of the flat tube 100.


A welding portion 3 is located in at least one of the channels 16. As shown in FIG. 1, the first member 2 is corrugated in the left-right direction, at least a part of an upper side of the first member 2 is welded to the first side wall 12, at least a part of a lower side of the first member 2 is welded to the second side wall 13, and the welding portion 3 is located between the first member 2 and the first side wall 12 and second side wall 13.


On a cross section of the flat tube 100, a cross section of the welding portion 3 partially overlaps a flow cross section of the channel 16 and is connected to the first side wall 12. On the flow cross section of the channel 16, the cross section of the welding portion 3 includes a contour line, the contour line includes a plurality of circular arcs, a radius of curvature of the circular arc is R, and at least one R meets the following condition: N*(Wb+0.15R)>0.0017Wt2+0.0175Wt+0.3713; or N*(Wb+0.15R)<0.0119Wt2+0.086Wt+2.9649; where a quantity of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is N, a thickness of the first member 2 is Wb, and a width of the flat tube 100 is Wt. The heat exchange tube in the present disclosure effectively reduces resistance on a refrigerant side, which helps improve heat exchange performance of a heat exchanger. In addition, a radius of curvature of the circular arc is R, so that a stress structure of the welding portion 3 between the flat tube 100 and the first member 2 is more appropriate, and a welding effect is better. The flat tube 100 and the first member 2 are formed by processing a same sheet material.


In some embodiments, a height of the flat tube 100 is H, the quantity of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is N, the width of the flat tube 100 is Wt, and the following conditions are met: {(N−2)/20}2*{(Wt−16)/16}3>0.05; and H*Wt<80. In this way, the heat exchange tube can obtain high heat transfer performance while ensuring design strength.


In some embodiments, a height of the flat tube 100 is H, the quantity of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is N, the width of the flat tube 100 is Wt, and the following conditions are met: {(N−2)/20}2*{(Wt−16)/16}3>0.3; and H*Wt<80. In this case, the heat exchange tube in the present disclosure effectively reduces resistance on the refrigerant side, which helps improve heat exchange performance of the heat exchanger. In addition, the flat tube 100 is formed by processing one sheet material, and the first member 2 is formed by processing another sheet material.


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 18, the width Wt of the flat tube 100 is less than 40 mm and greater than 16 mm, and the quantity N of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is greater than 14. It may be understood that, a larger width Wt of the flat tube 100 indicates a larger quantity of channels 16 in the flat tube 100, and is more capable of effectively improving a heat exchange area of the flat tube 100 and improving a heat exchange capability of the heat exchange tube. However, if the width Wt of the flat tube 100 is too large, a volume of the flat tube 100 increases, which hinders installation of the flat tube 100. The flat tube 100 and the first member 2 are formed by processing a same sheet material.


In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 18, the width Wt of the flat tube 100 is less than 36 mm and greater than 16 mm, and the quantity N of the channels 16 of the flat tube 100 is greater than 20. It may be understood that, a larger width Wt of the flat tube 100 indicates a larger quantity of channels 16 in the flat tube 100, and is more capable of effectively improving a heat exchange area of the flat tube 100 and improving a heat exchange capability of the heat exchange tube. However, if the width Wt of the flat tube 100 is too large, a volume of the flat tube 100 increases, which hinders installation of the flat tube 100. In addition, the flat tube 100 is formed by processing one sheet material, and the first member 2 is formed by processing another sheet material.


In some embodiments, a ratio of the height H of the flat tube 100 to the width Wt of the flat tube 100 is less than 0.0512. In this case, the flat tube 100 can obtain high heat transfer performance while ensuring design strength.


In some embodiments, D meets: 0.1<(H−4*D)/H<0.9. It may be understood that in the flat tube 100, the first member 2 and an inner wall of the flat tube 100 are welded by using the welding portion 3. A larger value of D indicates that a larger welding portion 3 is used between the first member 2 and the inner wall of the flat tube 100, and connection between the first member 2 and the inner wall of the flat tube 100 is more secure. However, a larger welding portion 3 indicates a smaller flow area of the channel 16, which affects heat exchange performance of the heat exchange tube. In the present disclosure, 0.1<(H−4*D)/H<0.9, so that the heat exchange tube can obtain high heat transfer performance while ensuring design strength.


Specifically, FIG. 1 to FIG. 6 show two specific embodiments of the heat exchange tube.
