The industrial conversion to new alternative refrigerants is now one of the major driving forces in two-phase flow and boiling heat transfer research. A state-of- the-art review is presented here to quantify what has been done so far, assess the strengths ...
The substitution of CFC refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, requires good methods for predicting heat transfer of substitute fluids. The measurements in the LENI test facility (concentric tubes wi ...
The aim of this work is to extend the investigation, to the influence of lubricating oil on R22-oil mixture in the heat pump and refrigeration system. The refrigerant-oil test bed was modified to accommodate R22-oil mixture investigation and R22-oil solubi ...
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 ...
The conversion to the new alternative refrigerants caused by the greenhouse and ozone effects is now replacing nuclear reactor analysis and safety as the major driving force in two-phase heat transfer research. Extensive studies are underway on pool boilin ...
Intube evaporation tests for R-407C and R-407C/oil are reported for a plain copper tube. The tests were run at a nominal inlet pressure of 6.45 bar (93.5 psia) at mass velocities of 100, 200 and 300 kg/m2s (73581, 147162 and 220743 lb/h ft2) over nearly th ...
The substitution of old refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, request a good knowledge of heat transfer properties of substitute fluids. The test measurmements in LENI test facility (concentric tube ...
Flow pattern data for horizontal intube flow boiling are presented for refrigerants R-134a and R-402 (60/2/38). The flow pattern observations were compared with various criteria for determining whether the entire circumference of a horizontal evaporator tu ...
