Zusammenfassung: | Loss of efficiency as a result of inadequate subcooling caused by the entry of gaseous refrigerant into the subcooling stage of a condenser (20) from a receive (22) is avoided in a construction wherein an upper inlet (64) to the receiver (22) is canted at an angle ( alpha , beta ) with respect to the longitudinal axis (74) of the receiver to induce a vortex flow (130) of refrigerant in the receiver (22). A baffle (106, 115, 118, 121) may advantageously be located between the upper inlet (64) and a lower outlet (66) of the receiver (22) to isolate turbulence within the receiver (22) from the lower outlet (66). |
