Patent ID: 10837353

Abstract:
A pipe connection structure according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: two inlet pipes through which a gas is capable of flowing; a connection pipe to which respective outlet-side end portions of the two inlet pipes are connected at a distance; and an outlet pipe connected to the connection pipe at an opposite side to a side where the two inlet pipes are connected to the connection pipe, the outlet pipe being capable of being in communication with the two inlet pipes via a space section inside the connection pipe. The two inlet pipes include a first inlet pipe disposed on a first side and a second inlet pipe disposed on a second side, in a width direction of the connection pipe, across a middle of connection positions of the two inlet pipes to the connection pipe. The outlet pipe is connected to a position offset toward the second side in the width direction of the connection pipe. Along an axial direction of the first inlet pipe, the space section inside the connection pipe has an axial length not smaller than a virtual diameter D defined by following expression (1) D=√(4A/π), where A is a cross-sectional area of the first inlet pipe and π is pi.
