What is the working principle of an evaporator?
1 Answers
The working principle of an automobile evaporator: The liquid refrigerant enters through the feed port, while the heating steam heats the heating tube bundle inside the heating chamber. The thicker tube in the middle of the heating chamber, due to its smaller heating area compared to the heating tube bundle, causes the refrigerant vaporized by the heating tube bundle to rise and enter the evaporation chamber. Below are related introductions: 1. Definition of the evaporator: The evaporator is a device used to heat the refrigerant and absorb heat from the external environment, mainly composed of a heating chamber and an evaporation chamber. 2. Application in thermal units: In fresh air heat exchange units and fan coil units, the evaporator primarily provides chilled water during the cooling process and heated refrigerant during the heating process. 3. Application in ground source heat pump systems: Its role in ground source heat pump systems is opposite to that of the condenser. During the heating process of the ground source heat pump unit, the evaporator acts as a ground source side device, heating the circulating water on the ground source side. The heated water is then transferred to the condenser through heat exchange in the unit, where the heat from the hot water is discharged by the condenser.
