This article presents experimental results of heat transfer from two different studies [1, 2] for horizontal flow boiling inside smooth copper tubes with different refrigerants. The main goal of this study was to verify the influence of the saturation temp ...
In tune with the falling film evaporation heat transfer test results described in Part 1, flow visualization of the boiling process and intertube flow mode transitions from droplet to column and sheet flows have been observed, and the onset of dryout resul ...
This study is a contribution for the improvement of horizontal falling film heat exchangers. This type of evaporator has the potential to be widely used in the petrochemical industry, for the sea water desalination, or in the large refrigeration systems. A ...
An improved two-phase flow pattern map is proposed for evaporation in horizontal tubes. Based on new flow pattern data for three different refrigerants covering a wide range of mass velocities, vapor qualities and heat fluxes. The new flow pattern map incl ...
The substitution of CFC refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles, requests a good knowledge of the heat transfer and pressure drop properties of substitute fluids. A contribution to this international effort is proposed ...
A summary of the objectives and conclusions reached in this project are: •A litterature search on post dryout heat transfer for pure refrigerants and for refrigerant-oil mixtures was performed and a comprehensive review written (Chapters 9, 10, and 11); •T ...
Two-phase flow pattern data have been obtained experimentally for R-407C flowing inside 12 mm bore sight glasses, which were located at the outlets of 3 m long, plain bore copper tube heat transfer test sections. The tests covered nominal mass velocities o ...
