Abstract: A heat exchanger comprises a plurality of regularly corrugated fins placed one over another in layers at regular pitches in a back-to-back arrangement so as to form alternate wide and narrow fluid passage between the adjacent corrugated fins, and each having a plurality of small through holes, a plurality of collars formed in a staggered arrangement, and an annular area not having any small through hole and formed so as to surround the root of each collar; and pipes for passing a secondary fluid therethrough, each inserted through the collars of the layers of the corrugated fins. The height of the collar from the lower surface of the annular area corresponds to the pitch between the adjacent corrugated fins, and thereby the corrugated fins can be assembled at regular pitches simply by placing one over another. The pipes are expanded after being inserted through the collars so that the pipes are firmly and closely joined to the collars for satisfactory heat transmission between the fins and the pipes.

Abstract: A multiroom air conditioner has a plurality of indoor heat exchangers connected to a single outdoor heat exchanger. A reversible expansion valve is installed on a liquid-side branch pipe for each of the indoor heat exchangers, and a solenoid valve is installed on a gas-side branch pipe for each indoor heat exchanger. Temperature sensors are provided on the liquid-side branch pipes, on the gas-side branch pipes, and on the outlet side during cooling of the outdoor heat exchanger. A pressure sensor or a temperature sensor detects the saturation temperature on the high-pressure side of the compressor. Based on the saturation temperature on the high-pressure side of the compressor, the temperature on the outlet side during cooling of the outdoor heat exchanger, and the temperatures in the liquidside branch pipes, a controller controls the expansion valves so as to obtain a target degree of subcooling during cooling and heating.

Abstract: A heat exchanger comprises a plurality of perforated and regularly corrugated heat transfer plates arranged in a ridge-to-ridge and furrow-to-furrow arrangement, so as to form primary fluid passages each consisting of alternate expanded sections and narrowed sections arranged along the direction of flow of a primary fluid, and a plurality of pipes for passing a secondary fluid therethrough, the pipes penetrating through and across the heat transfer plates. Oblique guide grooves are formed in the surfaces of each heat transfer plates to facilitate the downward flow of the condensate condensed over the surfaces of the heat transfer plates, the grooves being inclined closer to the vertical than to the horizontal to facilitate downward flow of any vapor condensed on the plates from the primary fluid whereby the heat transfer plates dry quickly for efficient heat exchange between the primary and secondary fluids.

Abstract: A refrigeration cycle system includes a compressor 1, a condenser 2, an expansion device 3 and an evaporator 5 connected in series with each other, and charged with a heteroazeotropic refrigerant mixture comprising R12 and R13. A fractionating vessel 6 and an electromagnetic valve 7 are provided in predetermined portions of the system for separating the R12 and R13 refrigerant components during an ordinary freezing mode and for mixing them during a rapid freezing mode.

Abstract: A plate-fin-tube type heat exchanger is constructed with a multitude of plate fins juxtaposed one another and a plurality of heat transmitting tubes passing through said plate fins and being held thereby. A plurality of cut and raised pieces are formed to intersect orthogonally with the air flowing direction at both front and rear surfaces of said plate fins with a certain space interval among them in the air flowing direction and at a location between the adjacent heat transmitting tubes arranged in the longitudinal direction of said plate fins, and then the edge portion on both sides of each cut and raised piece is re-bent in the direction opposite to the lifting direction of said piece and in substantially parallel with the surface of said plate fin so that the cross-section of said cut and raised piece may assume a sloping form in the direction of the air flow and that fin base plate portion may be present between the adjacent cut and raised pieces in parallel with the air flow.

Abstract: Separation and recovery of dibenzofuran of high purity is accomplished by distilling a coal tar fraction having boiling point range of 220.degree. to 300.degree. C. thereby producing a dibenzofuran fraction having a dibenzofuran content of not less than 30% by weight, a dibenzofuran/acenaphthene molar ratio of not less than 1.3, and a fluorene/dibenzofuran molar ratio of not more than 0.05, then introducing the dibenzofuran fraction obtained as described above into a continuous crystallization purification unit provided with a cooling zone for crystallization of the feed, a heating zone for melting the purified crystals, and a refining zone for enabling crystals being transferred from said cooling zone to said heating zone to come into counter current contact with a mass of molten crystals midway along the path between said two zones, and subjecting the dibenzofuran fraction to continuous crystallization purification therein.
