霜层非均匀成长加速风冷冰箱蒸发器性能衰减机理及其增效研究

Frost-free refrigerator evaporator has the frost maldistribution caused by non-uniform temperature/humidity distribution. The local frost blocking phenomenon restrains the potential heat transfer capacity of downstream heat exchanger parts. The increasing frost thickness reduces the airflow rate of evaporator fan. The evaporator heat transfer performance deteriorates under non-uniform frosting conditions. First, this project first conducts experiments and measures the local temperature/humidity distribution of inlet air by thermocouple grids and humidity sensors. The frost thickness is measured by high resolution CCD camera. Second, the quasi-static 3-2-1-1 frosting evaporator model is bulit based on the 3D evaporator structure, 2D temperature/humidity distribution of inlte air, 1D frost growth and non-uniform fin spacing. The coupling of the temperature/humidity distribution and air volocity redistribution is included in the numerical model. The coupling mechanism of the many kinds of factors affecting the frosting evaporator performance will be studied and provied. The reasons that the frost maldistribution deteriorates the evaporator heat transfer performance will be revealed. Third, the new technology of face-to-face jet flow of two streams of refrigerating return-air is used to improve the transversal direction of non-uniform frost growth. And the new evaporator structure of enlarging funnel section is applied to improve the longitudinal direction of non-uniform frost growth. Then, the evaporator heat transfer performance will be improved with the improvement of non-uniform frost growth. Based on these, theoretical basis and technical support for the solution to the heat transfer deterioration of the evaporator under non-uniform frosting conditions and defrost heat transfer loss during defrost cycles can be provided.
