Function: The primary function of a distributor is to evenly distribute refrigerant to each circuit or tube of the evaporator, ensuring optimal heat transfer and system efficiency.
Design: Copper spinning is a manufacturing process that can create distributors with a precise internal structure. These distributors often resemble a showerhead and are typically made from brass or copper due to their high thermal conductivity and resistance to corrosion.
Even Distribution: After the refrigerant passes through the expansion valve, the distributor maintains consistent flow velocity and ensures that each circuit within the evaporator receives an equal amount of refrigerant.
Two-Phase Flow: Distributors facilitate the creation of saturated or two-phase flow, which is a mixture of liquid and vapor refrigerant. This is a more effective heat transfer medium than either liquid or vapor alone.
Orifice Distributor: One common type of distributor is the orifice distributor, which controls the refrigerant flow through a small hole or nozzle. The size of the nozzle is selected based on the desired flow velocity of the refrigerant as it enters the distributor leads.
