A heat-transmitting device is adapted for use in a heat pump system which typically includes a throttle device, an evaporator, a compressor, and a further heat-transmitter device. The heat-transmitting device has a core tube coaxially disposed in a tubular shell. The region between the core tube and tubular shell is divided into two annular spaces by an annular ring sealingly disposed between the core tube and tubular shell. Each annular space serves as an independent condenser. Openings are provided in the tubular shell at each end thereof and on each side of the annular ring to facilitate fluid flow through the device. In the heat pump system, a cooling medium flows through one annular space of the device, then through the further heat transmitter, and then through the other annular space of the device. Heat is transferred by the device from the cooling medium to a fluid flowing through the core tube.

Heat-transmitting device for heat pumps

A heat exchanger for transferring heat from liquids or gases has an outer tube spaced from an concentric finned inner tube by a plurality of spacers. The spacers each have a tubular sleeve which engages the fins of the inner tube and a portion of the sleeve engages in the groove between adjacent fin turns of the inner tube. The outer surface of the spacer engages the internal surface of the outer tube. The spacer is preferably made of plastics material and the inner finned tube has fins formed in a threaded fashion. A preferred embodiment of the heat exchanger has a longitudinally slotted sleeve and the adjacent edges of the slot are formed to provide a snap-in engagement.
