ABSTRACT:
An improved evaporator system for refrigeration systems, especially in environments where available space is restricted, the improvement including an inlet manifold disposed between an evaporator coil, which has a plurality of evaporator tubes, and a refrigerant expansion device. The inlet manifold is structured for more uniformly consistent and homogeneous composition of refrigerant received from the expansion device and delivered by the inlet manifold into each evaporator tube. The inlet manifold includes an elongated, endless refrigerant path through which refrigerant received from the expansion device circulates. The passageway has an elongated first portion spaced apart from, and generally coextensive with, an elongated second portion. Each of a plurality of inlet manifold outlets disposed in the first portion are connected to one of the plurality of the evaporator tubes. This uniquely structured inlet manifold thus insures a more homogeneous mix of liquid and gas refrigerant circulating within the inlet manifold to be consistently delivered into each evaporator tube for more uniform cooling over the entire surface of the evaporator coil.
