摘要:
A thermoelectric transducer apparatus comprises a group of thermoelectric elements having N-type elements and P-type elements alternately arranged in a single line and a number of alternately arranged heat-absorbing-type and heat-liberating-type plate electrodes to electrically and serially connect said N- and P-type elements. Each of said heat-absorbing-type plate electrodes is extended to form a pair of integral heat-absorbing heat exchanger plates projecting in a direction from said group of elements, said pair of heat-absorbing heat exchanger plates having a pair of first plane areas extending in parallel with the group of elements and oppositely from each other and a pair of second plane areas extending from the respective first plane areas to leave the groups of elements, the outer surface of each of said second plane areas of each heat-absorbing heat exchanger plate being respectively bonded to the adjacent second plane areas of the neighboring heat-absorbing heat exchanger plates by means of insulating adhesive agent. Each of said heat-liberating-type plate electrodes has a pair of first plane areas and a pair of second plane areas all similar to those of each heat-absorbing p-type plate electrode. First and second partition walls for separating the cooled and coolant fluids of the thermoelectric transducer apparatus are formed by serially connecting the first plane areas of said heat-absorbing heat exchanger plates and those of said heat-liberating heat exchanger plates.
摘要:
A dehumidifying apparatus with an electronic refrigeration unit includes a thermoelectric unit, a DC power source, and absorbing and liberating heat exchangers. The thermoelectric unit includes a plurality of N-type thermoelectric elements, heat absorbing electrodes, P-type thermoelectric elements, and heat liberating electrodes electrically connected in series. The DC power source supplies DC current to the N-type and P-type thermoelectric elements serially connected through the heat absorbing and heat liberating electrodes. The absorbing and liberating heat exchanger are integrated with the heat absorbing and liberating electrodes, respectively. A heat liberating surface of the liberating heat exchanger is formed at a position different from the absorbing heat exchanger. The absorbing and liberating heat exchangers include heat absorbing and liberating fins, respectively. A notch is formed in one side of each of the heat liberating fins so that a part of a heat absorbing fin fits the notch. The heat absorbing fins are set in a position corresponding to a notch of a corresponding heat liberating fin so that a part of the heat absorbing fin overlaps a part of the heat liberating fin. The overlapped portions are used for the heat absorbing and heat liberating electrodes.

A thermoelectric converter has a N-type thermoelectric element, a P-type thermoelectric element, an endothermic electrode and a radiative electrode. One surface of the N-type thermoelectric element is attached to one surface of the endothermic electrode and the other surface is attached to one surface of the radiative electrode. One surface of the P-type thermoelectric element is attached to the other surface of the radiative electrode and the other surface is attached to the other endothermic electrode.

An automotive air conditioning system has a primary hot water circuit 11 located on a side where a vehicle installed heat generator 10 is located and a secondary hot water circuit 13 which includes a hot water type heater core 12 for heating passenger compartment outlet air, whereby when in a heating mode, in the event that a coolant temperature TW1 of the primary hot water circuit is lower than a coolant temperature TW2 of the secondary hot water circuit 13, an opening and closing valve 26 is closed, whereas an opening and closing valve 23 is opened, so that a state is created in which the hot water circuits 11, 13 are separated from each other. On the other hand, in the event that the coolant temperature TW1 of the primary hot water circuit becomes higher than the coolant temperature TW2 of the secondary hot water circuit 13, the opening and closing valve 26 is opened, whereas the opening and closing valve 23 is closed, so that a state is created in which the hot water circuits 11, 13 are connected to each other.
摘要:
In a refrigerant cycle with an ejector, there is provided with a bypass passage through which a part of high-pressure refrigerant from a radiator flows into a low-pressure refrigerant passage between an evaporator and a suction port of the ejector while bypassing a nozzle of the ejector. Further, a control valve is disposed to open the bypass passage so that refrigerant flows through the bypass passage when the pressure of the high-pressure refrigerant becomes in a predetermined condition. Accordingly, it can prevent the pressure of the high-pressure refrigerant from being excessively increased due to increase of a refrigerant flow amount. Therefore, the refrigerant cycle operates stably.

An automotive climate control system is disclosed. As long as an ignition switch is off, a bypass (14) is closed (in this state, a ratio between warm air and cool air is a maximum when the automotive climate control system is activated.), the blowout is set to defrost mode and the introduced air is set to external air mode regardless of the preceding modes of blowout and introduced air (when the ignition switch is on). As a result, the refrigerant leaking from an evaporator (12) flows to an external air inlet (23) smaller in air resistance. Even in the case where the ignition switch is off, therefore, the leaking refrigerant is prevented from flowing into the cabin.
摘要:
When the valve is closed, for example at normally-open type valve, the operating voltage applied to the electromagnet is initially set to the minimum operating voltage (6 V, for example), then raised to a voltage (12 V, for example) where sealing caused by contacting force between the valve body and the valve seat is ensured. The voltage is raised almost simultaneously with the contact of the valve body with the valve seat, or slightly earlier or later. Thus, when the valve is closed, the valve body speed when it reaches the valve seat is low, making the operational noise at valve closing smaller. Also, since the operating voltage of the electromagnet is raised later, sealing of the closed valve is ensured.

摘要:
A nozzle (41) is made of a sintered metal, and a pressure increasing portion (a mixing portion (42) and a diffuser (43)) is manufactured by plastic-forming a metal pipe. Accordingly, the nozzle (41) can be manufactured in a short time while high accuracy in machining is maintained. Thus, the cost of manufacturing an ejector (40) can be reduced.
摘要:
In an ejector refrigerant cycle, even if refrigerant is super-heated in an evaporator, super-heated gas refrigerant does not directly flow into a gas-liquid separator, so that boiling of refrigerant does not occur in the gas-liquid separator due to evaporation of refrigerant in the gas-liquid separator. When an equivalent inner diameter (D) of a tank body of the gas-liquid separator is set in a range of 2 cm–6 cm, and when a ratio of a vertical dimension (H) of the tank body to the equivalent inner diameter (D) thereof is larger than 1, a wall thickness of the tank body can be reduced while gas-liquid separation performance in the gas-liquid separator can be improved.
