Internal Heat exchanger (IHX)
Internal Heat exchanger (IHX)
An Internal Heat exchanger or IHX is used to transfer heat between low side pressure and high pressure flow circuits. Its function is to improve system performance by further sub-cooling the refrigerant being supplied to the evaporator through the refrigerant control device.
The internal heat exchanger (IHX) cools the refrigerant without the need for additional energy. The line integrated tube-in-tube solution also makes use of a thermodynamic effect to further cool the refrigerant in the inner tube.
Features
The superior quality of the internal heat exchanger (IHX) is defined by its key distinguishing features:
Heat Transfer Between Circuits
Energy Efficient Operation
Sub-cooling of Refrigerant
