ACCUMULATOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017198408
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an accumulator in which abrupt boil of a liquid phase refrigerant stored in a tank can be suppressed.SOLUTION: An accumulator 10 comprises a tank 11, an introduction part 20, a discharge part 30 and a heat pipe 40. The tank 11 separates a refrigerant circulating in a refrigeration cycle to a gas phase refrigerant and a liquid phase refrigerant, and stores them. The introduction part 20 introduces the refrigerant flowing out from an evaporator into the tank 11. The discharge part 30 discharges the gas phase refrigerant stored in an upper portion in the tank 11 to a compressor from the tank 11. The heat pipe 40 is arranged over the upper portion in which the gas phase refrigerant is stored in the tank 11 up to a lower portion in which the liquid phase refrigerant is stored, and causes thermal conduction between the gas phase refrigerant and the liquid phase refrigerant.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
