Abstract

An evaporator and a turbo chiller including the evaporator are provided. The evaporator may be a falling film evaporator which may distribute refrigerant to a heat pipe uniformly and which may also control two-phase flow by lowering dynamic pressures of gas refrigerant and liquid refrigerant, and separate the liquid refrigerant and the gas refrigerant from each other to enhance heat exchange efficiency.
