GAS-LIQUID SEPARATOR AND REFRIGERATING CYCLE DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gas-liquid separator which is improved in gas-liquid separating performance.SOLUTION: A gas-liquid separator 1A includes: a sealed container 2 which has an internal space where a gas-liquid two-phase liquid is separated into a gas and a liquid and has a liquid reservoir formed of the separated liquid below the internal space; a partition member 5 which partitions the internal space into an inflow space where the gas-liquid two-phase liquid is jetted and a separation space below the inflow space so that the spaces communicate with each other along the inner peripheral surface of the sealed container; a two-phase pipe 31 which jets the gas-liquid two-phase liquid upward in the inflow space; a transmissive straightening member 6A which partitions the separation space and the liquid reservoir into an outer peripheral region facing the inner peripheral surface of the sealed container and a center region inside the outer peripheral region; a gas outlet pipe 4 which is opened toward the partition member in the center region; and a liquid outlet pipe 32 which is opened to the center region in the liquid reservoir. The straightening member 6A discharges air bubbles from the liquid outlet pipe or reduces the discharging of droplets from the gas outlet pipe so as to improve the gas-liquid separating performance of the gas-liquid separator.
