Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2009152015A2] A phase separator and fluid storage volume device (12, 14) for a heat exchanger comprises a vessel (54), a vapor tube (50), a liquid tube (52), an access tube (58) and a flow regulating device (62). The vessel (54) comprises a first chamber (66), a second chamber (68), and a divider (56) separating the first chamber (66) from the second chamber (68). The vapor tube (50) extends from within the second chamber (68), through the divider (56) and the first chamber (66) to outside the first chamber (66). The vapor tube (50) also includes holes (70) between an inlet and an outlet of the tube (50) within the first chamber (66). The liquid tube (52) extends from within the second chamber (68) to outside of the second chamber (68). The access tube (58) connects to the second chamber (68). The flow regulating device (62) is disposed within the vapor tube (50) to provide phase separation between refrigerant traveling between the first chamber (66) and the second chamber (68) within the vapor tube (50).
